(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; and

(ii) the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) from the redemption date to the applicable Par Call Date, in each case discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points for the 2028 Notes and 25 basis points for the 2031 Notes;

together with, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

With respect to any redemption occurring prior to the applicable Par Call Date, the Company shall give the Trustee notice of the Make-Whole Redemption Price promptly after the calculation thereof and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for such calculation.

(b) At any time on or after the applicable Par Call Date, the Company shall have the right at its option to redeem the Notes, as a whole or in part, at a redemption price (the “Par Redemption Price” and together with the Make-Whole Redemption Price, each an “Optional Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; plus, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

(c) Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Optional Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the applicable Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. On or before the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent or set aside, segregate and hold in trust (if the Company is acting as Paying Agent), funds sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, such Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select, not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, the particular Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed from the outstanding Notes not previously called for redemption in accordance with the procedures of DTC; provided that if the Notes are represented by one or more Global Notes, beneficial interests in the Notes will be selected for redemption by DTC in accordance with its standard procedures therefor; provided, however, that no Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.

(d) The Company shall mail (or otherwise transmit in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC) notice of a redemption pursuant to this Section 3.01 to the registered address of each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date.

Section 3.02. No Other Redemption. Except as set forth in Section 3.01, the Notes shall not be redeemable by the Company prior to the applicable Maturity Date. The provisions of this Article 3 shall supersede any conflicting provisions contained in Article 11 of the Base Indenture.

ARTICLE 4

CHANGE OF CONTROL TRIGGERING EVENT

Section 4.01. Change of Control Triggering Event. (a) If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to a series of Notes, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes of such series, the Company shall make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase all or, at the Holder’s option, any part (equal to $2,000 or any multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes of such series at 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 4.01.

(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Company shall make the Change of Control Offer by mailing, or causing to be mailed, a notice to all Holders of Notes of such series (with a copy mailed to the Trustee) describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such 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 notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to such payment date.

(c) On the payment date of the Change of Control Purchase Price as specified in the notice, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Purchase Price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; 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 purchased by the Company.

(d) The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder who properly tendered Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, the Change of Control Purchase Price for such Notes, and the Trustee shall 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 the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(e) The Company will not be required to make a 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 a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In the event that such third party terminates or defaults on its offer, the Company shall make a Change of Control Offer treating the date of such termination or default as though it were the date of such Change of Control Triggering Event.

(f) The Company will not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the relevant payment date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

(g) The Company will 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 Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provision of any such securities laws or regulations conflicts with the offer provisions in respect of a Change of Control of the Notes, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under such offer provisions by virtue of any such conflict.

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 Indenture (the “Original Indenture”), dated as of March 11, 2016, between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee), as amended and supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated as of March 11, 2016, between the Company and the Trustee (“Supplemental Indenture No. 1”; the Original Indenture, as so amended and supplemented, the “Base Indenture”) and as further supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 4, dated as of June 26, 2020, between the Company and the Trustee (“Supplemental Indenture No. 4”; the Base Indenture as so further supplemented, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture reference is hereby made 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 $500,000,000.

All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Indenture.

Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be payable at the office of the Paying Agent or, at the Company’s option, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the register of Holders; provided that all payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes represented by one or more Global Notes deposited with, or on behalf of, a common depositary, and registered in the name of the nominee of the common depositary for the account of The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”) will be made through the facilities of the common depositary.

The Paying Agent, transfer agent and Security Registrar with respect to the Notes shall initially be the Trustee.

The Notes shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

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

At any time prior to November 30, 2027, the Company shall have the right at its option to redeem the Notes, as a whole or in part, at a redemption price (the “Make-Whole Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of:

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; and

(ii) the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) from the Redemption Date to November 30, 2027, discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points;

together with, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

At any time on or after November 30, 2027, the Company shall have the right at its option to redeem the Notes, as a whole or in part, at a redemption price (the “Par Redemption Price” and together with the Make-Whole Redemption Price, each an “Optional Redemption Price”) equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; plus, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes, the Company shall make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase all or, at the Holder’s option, any part (equal to $2,000 or any multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of each Holder’s Notes at 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) in accordance with the procedures set forth herein and in Supplemental Indenture No. 4.

A-4

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Company shall make the Change of Control Offer by mailing, or causing to be mailed, a notice to all Holders of Notes (with a copy mailed to the Trustee) describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such 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 notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to such payment date.

On the payment date of the Change of Control Purchase Price as specified in the notice, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder who properly tendered Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, the Change of Control Purchase Price for such Notes, and the Trustee shall 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 the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Company will not be required to make a 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 a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In the event that such third party terminates or defaults on its offer, the Company shall make a Change of Control offer treating the date of such termination or default as though it were the date of such Change of Control Triggering Event.

The Company will not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the relevant payment date an Event of Default under the Indenture, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of the obligations of the Company at any time upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes of this series.

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

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 at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of each series affected thereby and at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes of a series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, to waive 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.

A-5

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 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 of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

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 that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 3.04, 3.06, 9.06 and 11.07 of the Base Indenture.

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, and except as provided for in the Indenture, 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 is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Notes of this series are issuable in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
