NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the foregoing premises, Parent, the Company and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree for the equal and proportionate benefit of the respective holders from time to time of the Offered Securities as follows:

ARTICLE I

Section 1.1.           Terms of Offered Securities.

The following terms relate to the Offered Securities:

(1)            The Offered Securities constitute a series of securities having the title “4.500% Senior Notes due 2026”.

(2)            The initial aggregate principal amount of the Offered Securities that may be authenticated and delivered under the Base Indenture (except for Offered Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Offered Securities pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.06, 2.07, 2.11, or 3.03) is $500,000,000.

(3)            The entire Outstanding principal of the Offered Securities shall be payable on February 13, 2026.

(4)            The rate at which the Offered Securities shall bear interest shall be 4.500% per year payable as set forth in the Offered Securities. The date from which interest shall accrue on the Offered Securities shall be February 13, 2023 or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or provided for. The Interest Payment Dates for the Offered Securities shall be February 13 and August 13 of each year, beginning August 13, 2023. Interest shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date to the holders of record at the close of business on the January 29 and July 29 prior to each Interest Payment Date (a “regular record date”). The basis upon which interest shall be calculated shall be that of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

(5)            The Offered Securities shall be issuable in whole in the form of one or more registered Global Securities, and the Depositary for such Global Securities shall be The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York. The Offered Securities shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A the terms of which are hereby incorporated by reference. The Offered Securities shall be issuable in denominations of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(6)             (A)       The Company may redeem the Offered Securities at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Offered Securities to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

(B)          As used herein:

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs:

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

[Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture]

If on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date H.15 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the maturity date of the Offered Securities, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the maturity date of the Offered Securities but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the maturity date of the Offered Securities, one with a maturity date preceding the maturity date of the Offered Securities and one with a maturity date following the maturity date of the Offered Securities, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the maturity date of the Offered Securities. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the maturity date of the Offered Securities or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

(C)            The Company’s actions and determinations in determining any redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(7)            Notwithstanding Section 3.02 and Section 3.03 of the Base Indenture:

(A)            Notice of any redemption shall be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s applicable procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of the Offered Securities to be redeemed.

[Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture]

(B)            Any redemption or notice of redemption delivered pursuant to the terms of the Offered Securities and the Base Indenture, as supplemented by this Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture, may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) or the redemption date may not occur at all and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion).

(C)            In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Offered Securities for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair.

(D)            No Offered Securities of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.

(E)            If any Offered Securities are to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption shall state the portion of the principal amount of the Offered Securities to be redeemed.

(F)            A new Offered Security in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Offered Securities shall be issued in the name of the holder of the Offered Security upon surrender for cancellation of the original Offered Security. For so long as the Offered Securities are held by a Depositary, the redemption of the Offered Securities shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

(G)            Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price payable in accordance with Section 1.1(6) hereof, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Offered Securities or portions thereof called for redemption.

(H)            If any redemption date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal and interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next succeeding Business Day.

(I)            At least two Business Days prior to the date on which the Trustee shall deliver a notice of redemption to each Holder of Offered Securities (or such lesser period as the Trustee may agree to), the Company shall provide the Trustee with such notice of redemption.

(8)            The Offered Securities will not have the benefit of any sinking fund.

(9)            Except as provided herein, the holders of the Offered Securities shall have no special rights in addition to those provided in the Base Indenture upon the occurrence of any particular events.

(10)          The Offered Securities will be general unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company and will be ranked equally among themselves.

[Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture]

(11)            The Offered Securities are not convertible into shares of common stock or other securities of the Company.

(12)            The additional Event of Default and restrictive covenants set forth in Sections 1.3 and 1.4 shall be applicable to the Offered Securities.

Section 1.2              Additional Defined Terms.

As used herein, the following defined terms shall have the following meanings with respect to the Offered Securities only:

“Accounts Receivable” of any Person means the accounts receivable of such Person generated by the sale of inventory to third-party customers in the ordinary course of business.

“Attributable Debt”, in connection with a Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, as of any particular time, means the aggregate of present values (discounted at a rate that, at the inception of the lease, represents the effective interest rate that the lessee would have incurred to borrow over a similar term the funds necessary to purchase the leased assets) of the obligations of the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary for net rental payments during the remaining term of the applicable lease, including any period for which such lease has been extended or, at the option of the lessor, may be extended. The term “net rental payments” under any lease of any period shall mean the sum of the rental and other payments required to be paid in such period by the lessee thereunder, not including any amounts required to be paid by such lessee, whether or not designated as rental or additional rental, on account of maintenance and repairs, reconstruction, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates 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, maintenance and repairs, reconstruction, insurance, taxes, assessments, water rates or similar charges.

“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Offered Securities are rated below an Investment Grade Rating by at least two of the Rating Agencies on any date from the date of the public notice of an arrangement that could result in a Change of Control until the end of the 60-day period following public notice of the occurrence of the Change of Control (which 60-day period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Offered Securities is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall be deemed not to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall be deemed not to be a Below Investment Grade 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 publicly announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at its 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 shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction effected to create a holding company for Parent will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if: (1) pursuant to such transaction Parent becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of such holding company and (2) 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 Parent’s voting stock immediately prior to that transaction. Following any such transaction, references in this definition to Parent shall be deemed to refer to such holding company. For purposes of this definition, “voting stock” of any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) as of any date means 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.

(ii) as a result of such amendment or change, Parent or the Company has become, or there is a material probability that Parent or the Company will become, obligated to pay Additional Amounts on the next date on which any amount would be payable with respect to the Offered Securities; and

(iii) such obligation cannot be avoided by the use of commercially reasonable measures available to Parent or the Company, as the case may be.

(k)            any withholding or deduction for Taxes which would not have been imposed if the relevant Securities had been presented to another paying agent in a Member State of the European Union; or

(l)            any combination of Xxxxxxx 00.00(x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (x), (x) and (k).

Tyco Electronics Group S.A.

4.500% Senior Notes due 2026

This security is one of a duly authorized series of debt securities of Tyco Electronics Group S.A. (the “Company”) issued or to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture for the Company’s unsubordinated debt securities, dated as of September 25, 2007 (the “Base Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by and among the Company, TE Connectivity Ltd. (“Parent”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 13, 2023 (the “Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture”), by and among the Company, Parent and the Trustee. The Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture is referred to herein as the “Indenture.” By the terms of the Base Indenture, the debt securities issuable thereunder are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in other respects as provided in the Base Indenture. This security is one of the series designated on the face hereof (individually, a “Security,” and collectively, the “Securities”), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the Trustee, the Company, Parent and the holders of the Securities (the “Holders”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given them in the Base Indenture or the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture, as applicable.

1. Interest.  The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at an annual rate of 4.500%, subject to adjustment as provided below. The Company will pay interest semi-annually on February 13 and August 13 of each year (each such day, an “Interest Payment Date”). If any Interest Payment Date, redemption date or maturity date of this Security is not a Business Day, then payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date to the next succeeding Business Day. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Security is authenticated between a regular record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; and provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be August 13, 2023. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In certain circumstances, liquidated damages may be payable as provided in Section 6.01 of the Base Indenture. Any such liquidated damages shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on this Security.

2.  Method of Payment.  The Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest), if any, to the persons in whose name such Securities are registered at the close of business on the regular record date referred to on the facing page of this Security for such interest installment. In the event that the Securities or a portion thereof are called for redemption and the applicable redemption date is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any Interest Payment Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date, interest on such Securities will be paid upon presentation and surrender of such Securities as provided in the Indenture. The principal of and the interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Securities shall be payable in the coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time is legal tender for public and private debt, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in accordance with the Indenture.

Notice of any redemption shall be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s applicable procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Offered Securities to be redeemed. This Security is also subject to redemption to the extent provided in Article XIV of the Base Indenture and Section 1.3(4) of the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture.

Any notice of redemption delivered pursuant to the terms of the Offered Securities and the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture, may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) or the redemption date may not occur at all and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion). If the giving of the notice of redemption is completed as provided in the Indenture, interest on such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue on and after the applicable redemption date, unless the Company shall default in the payment of the applicable redemption price, including any accrued interest with respect to any such Security or portion thereof.

Subject to the terms of the Indenture, if an Event of Default under the Indenture shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders, unless such Holders have offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it.
