-9-

Section 2.6. Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

Solely for the benefit of the Securityholders of the Notes a new Section 4.08 shall be added to the Base Indenture as follows:

“Other than as provided under Section 4.09, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transaction with respect to any of the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s respective Principal Properties, the acquisition or completion of construction and commencement of full operations of which has occurred more than 270 days prior thereto, unless (i) such transaction was entered into prior to the first issue date of the Notes; (ii) such transaction was for the sale and leasing back to the Company of any property by one of its Subsidiaries or was for the sale and leasing back of any property between Subsidiaries; (iii) the Company or such Subsidiary would be entitled to incur Indebtedness secured by a mortgage on the property to be leased in an amount equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction without equally and ratably securing the Notes pursuant to the first sentence of Section 4.07; (iv) the lease is for a period not in excess of five years, including renewal rights; or (v) the Company or the Subsidiary, prior to or within 270 days after the sale of such property in connection with the Sale and Leaseback Transaction is completed, applies the net cash proceeds of the sale of the property leased to (1) the retirement of the Notes or debt of the Company ranking equally with the Notes or to the retirement of any debt of a Subsidiary of the Company, or (2) the acquisition of another Principal Property.”

Section 2.7. Exempted Liens and Sale and Leaseback Transactions.

Solely for the benefit of the Securityholders of the Notes a new Section 4.09 shall be added to the Base Indenture as follows:

“Notwithstanding the restrictions described under Sections 4.07 or 4.08, the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company may create or assume any Liens or enter into any Sale and Leaseback Transactions not otherwise permitted under Sections 4.07 or 4.08, if the sum of the following does not exceed 15% of Consolidated Total Assets (i) the outstanding Indebtedness secured by such Liens (not including any Liens otherwise permitted under Section 4.07 which amount does not include any Liens permitted under the provisions of this Section 4.09); plus (ii) all Attributable Debt in respect of such Sale and Leaseback Transaction entered into (not including any Sale and Leaseback Transactions otherwise permitted under Section 4.08 which amount does not include any Sale and Leaseback Transactions permitted under the provisions of this Section 4.09), measured, in each case, at the time such Lien is incurred or any such Sale and Leaseback Transaction is entered into by the Company or such Subsidiary of the Company.”

Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a New York corporation (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of $[ ] on September 15, 2030 (the “Maturity Date”) (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to the Maturity Date) and to pay interest thereon from August 12, 2020 (the “Original Issue Date”) or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for semi-annually at the rate of 1.750% per annum, on March 15 and September 15 (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing March 15, 2021, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

Payment of Interest. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or made available for payment, on any Interest Payment Date, will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid, in immediately available funds, to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on March 1 or September 1 (whether or not a Business Day, as defined in the Indenture), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date (the “Regular Record Date”). Any such interest not punctually paid or duly provided for (“Defaulted Interest”) will forthwith cease to be payable to the Securityholder on such Regular Record Date, and such Defaulted Interest, may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date (the “Special Record Date”) for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Securityholders of Notes not less than fifteen days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

Place of Payment. Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or such other office or agency of the Company as may be designated for such purpose, 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; provided, however, that each installment of interest, premium, if any, and principal on this Note may at the Company’s option be paid in immediately available funds by transfer to an account maintained by the payee located in the United States.

A-1

Time of Payment. In any case where any Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or any date fixed for redemption or repayment of the Notes shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture or this Note), payment of principal or interest, if any, need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or the date so fixed for redemption or repayment, and no interest shall accrue in respect of the delay.

General. This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company, issued and to be issued in one or more series under an indenture, dated as of August 12, 2020 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to a series of which this Note is a part), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture thereto, dated as of August 12, 2020 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). Reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Securityholders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities designated as “1.750% Senior Notes due 2030” (collectively, the “Notes”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $1,250,000,000.

Further Issuance. The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the Securityholders of the Notes, issue additional Securities (the “Additional Securities”) of this series having the same ranking and the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes. Any Additional Securities of this series and the Notes will constitute a single series under the Indenture and all references to the Notes shall include the Additional Securities unless the context otherwise requires.

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

Sinking Fund. The Notes are not subject to any sinking fund.

Optional Redemption. The Notes will be redeemable at any time, at the option of the Company, from time to time, in whole or in part, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, on any date prior to their maturity at a redemption price, calculated pursuant to the Indenture, which includes accrued interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. In the case of any partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made by the Trustee by such methods, as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem fair and appropriate. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption relating to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Securityholder thereof upon cancellation of this Note.

Repurchase upon a Change of Control Triggering Event. Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes on the terms set forth in the Indenture.

Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Note and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related Defaults and Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Note.

Modification and Waivers; Obligations of the Company Absolute. 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 Securityholders of the Securities of each series. Such amendment may be effected under the Indenture at any time by the Company, and the Trustee with the consent of the Securityholders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes of each series affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Securityholders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Securityholders of all outstanding Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the Securityholders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities of individual series to waive on behalf of all of the Securityholders of Securities of such individual series certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver shall be conclusive and binding upon the Securityholder of this Note and upon all future Securityholders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

A-2

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 time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

Limitation on Suits. As set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Securityholder of any Note will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder, unless such Securityholder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to this series, the Securityholders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes shall have made written request, and offered indemnity and/or security, to the Trustee to institute such proceedings as trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Securityholders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Securityholder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or interest on this Note on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

Authorized Denominations. The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Registration of Transfer or Exchange. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the register of the Notes maintained by the Registrar 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 Registrar, duly executed by the Securityholder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Securityholders surrendering the same.

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 payable in connection therewith.

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 Securityholder 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.

Defined Terms. All terms used in this Note, which are defined in the Indenture and are not otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Governing Law. This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
