brokers of, and/or market makers in, German government bonds selected by such independent investment bank, determine to be appropriate for determining the Comparable Government Bond Rate. 

“Comparable Government Bond Rate” means the price, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, with 0.0005

ARTICLE II 
 THE
NOTES 
 SECTION 2.01. Designation and Terms of the Notes. 

(a) The Company hereby creates one series of securities designated “1.75% Senior Notes due 2024” issued pursuant to this
Supplemental Indenture. 
 (b) The aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is
unlimited. The Notes shall be issued initially in an aggregate principal amount of €500,000,000. 
 (c) The Company may, from time to
time, without the consent of the holders of the Notes and in accordance with this Indenture, create and issue additional Notes ranking equally and ratably with, having the same terms and conditions as, the Notes in all respects (other than the
original issuance date, the issue price and, under certain circumstances, the first payment of interest) (“Additional Notes”) so as to form a single series with the Notes, including for purposes of voting and redemptions,
provided that any such further securities shall be fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 
 (d) Unless
previously redeemed or repurchased in accordance with Article III of this Supplemental Indenture, the Notes will become due and payable on March 14, 2024. 

  
 5 








 (e) The Notes will bear interest at the rate of 1.75% per annum, computed on the basis of
the actual number of days in the period for which interest is being calculated and the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid on the Notes to but excluding the next scheduled interest payment date. This
payment convention is referred to as ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) (as defined in the rulebook of the International Capital Market Association). 

(f) The Interest Payment Date for the Notes shall be March 14 of each calendar year, beginning on March 14, 2017, to holders of
record at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not that date is a Business Day), immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”) and on the Maturity. Interest on
the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance. 

SECTION 2.02. Currency and Denomination. 

(a) The Notes shall be issued in minimum denominations of €100,000 and in integral multiples of €1,000 above that amount. 

(b) Principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, and Additional Amounts, if any, with respect to the Notes shall be payable in Euro.
However, if the Euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control or if the Euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union
that have adopted the Euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars until the Euro is
again available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in Euro shall be converted into U.S. Dollars on the basis of the then most recently available Market Exchange Rate for Euro. Any payment in respect of the Notes so made in
U.S. Dollars shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for obtaining exchange rates, effecting conversions or otherwise handling redenominations.

 SECTION 2.03. Form of Notes. 

(a) The Notes shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A, and
deposited with, or on behalf of, the Common Depositary and shall be registered in the name of USB Nominees (UK) Limited, or its nominee, for, and in respect of interests held through, Euroclear and Clearstream. 

(b) The provisions of the Base Indenture (including, but not limited to, Section 2.11 of the Base Indenture) relating to Global
Securities shall apply to the Notes. 
 (c) Any holder of a Global Security shall, by acceptance of such Global Security, agree that the
transfers of beneficial interests in such Global Security may be effected only through book-entry procedures maintained by the Common Depositary, and that, except as provided for in Section 2.11 of the
Base Indenture, ownership of a beneficial interest in the Notes represented thereby shall be required to be reflected in book-entry form. Transfers of a Global Security shall be limited to transfers in whole
and not in part, to the Common Depositary, its successors and their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Security shall be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of Clearstream and Euroclear, or their
respective successors. 

  
 6 








 SECTION 2.04. Registrar and Paying Agent. 

The Company has, pursuant to that certain Agency Agreement dated March 14, 2016, initially appointed Elavon Financial Services Limited,

 SECTION 2.05. Place of
Payment; Transfer and Exchange. 
 The place or places where payments will be made, where the Notes may be surrendered for registration
of transfer, exchange or redemption and where notices may be given to the Company in respect of the Notes will initially be the office of the Paying Agent at Fifth Floor, 125 Old Broad Street, London EC2N 1AR, United Kingdom (or such other office of
the Paying Agent in London, United Kingdom as agreed to by the Company and the Paying Agent); provided, however, that the payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the Security Register. 
 SECTION 2.06. No Sinking Fund. 

There shall be no sinking fund with respect to the Notes. 

ARTICLE III 

REDEMPTION AND REPURCHASE OF THE NOTES 

SECTION 3.01. Optional Redemption by the Company. 

The Company at its option may, at any time, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon payment of a redemption price for the Notes to be
redeemed (the “Redemption Price”) equal to: 
 (a) prior to December 14, 2023, the greater of: 

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date; and 

(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed on
that Redemption Date (not including any portion of any payment of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) (as defined in the rulebook of the International Capital Markets
Association)) at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate, plus 30 basis points; or 

  
 7 








 (b) on or after December 14, 2023, 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed
on that Redemption Date; 
 plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the applicable Depository procedures, in the
case of Notes represented by a Global Security, or by trustee, in accordance with the lot, in the case of Notes that are not represented by a Global Security; provided, however, that no Notes of a principal amount of €100,000 or
less shall be redeemed in part. 
 SECTION 3.02. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event. 

(a) Upon a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has previously exercised any right to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section
3.01, each Noteholder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (in minimum denominations of €100,000 or integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer
described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of
repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurs or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public
announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to each Noteholder (with a written copy of such notice to the Trustee) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event
and offering to repurchase the 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 “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to
the procedures required herein and described in such notice. 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 being completed on or
prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. The Company shall 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 the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section, the Company
will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section by virtue of such conflicts. 

(b) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes an offer to purchase the Notes at a purchase
price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Notes to the date of purchase, 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 the Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. 

  
 8 








 (c) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful,
(i) accept for payment all the Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all the Notes or portions
of Notes properly tendered; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee for cancellation the Notes properly accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of the Notes or portions
thereof being purchased by the Company. The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each holder of the Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee, upon receipt of a Company Request, shall promptly authenticate
and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each holder of the Notes a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered by such holder, if any, in denominations as set forth in this Supplemental
Indenture. 
 SECTION 3.03. Redemption for Tax Reasons. 

If as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the United States (or
any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendments to, an official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or
becomes effective on or after March 7, 2016, the Company becomes or will become obligated, based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Company, to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes as set forth in
Article V hereof, and such obligation cannot be avoided by the Company taking reasonable measures available to it, then the Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company, in whole, but not in part, having given not less than 30 days nor
more than 60 days’ prior notice to the holders of the Notes, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date,
provided that no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be obliged to pay Additional Amounts as a payment in respect of the Notes then due. 

ARTICLE IV 

COVENANTS 

SECTION 4.01. Additional Covenants. 

In addition to those covenants set forth in Article 4 of the Base Indenture, the Company shall comply with the following covenants: 

(a) Limitation on Liens. The Company agrees that it will not, nor will it permit any Restricted Subsidiaries to, issue, incur, create,
assume or guarantee any debt for borrowed money, collectively referred to as “Debt,” secured by any mortgage, deed of trust, security interest, pledge, lien, charge or other encumbrance, each a “Lien” and
collectively “Liens,” upon any Principal Property or shares of stock (or other equivalents of or interests in equity) or indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary without in any such case providing concurrently with the issuance,
incurrence, creation, assumption or guaranty of such secured 

  
 9 








 
Debt, or the grant of such Lien, that the Notes (together with, at the Company’s option, any other indebtedness of or guarantee by the Company ranking equally with the Notes) shall be
secured equally and ratably with (or, at the option of the Company, prior to) such secured Debt. The foregoing restriction, however, will not apply to: 

(1) Liens on property, shares of stock or indebtedness of a Person existing at the time such Person becomes a Restricted
Subsidiary, provided that such Liens are not created in anticipation of the transaction in which such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; 

(2) Liens on property acquired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary existing at the time of acquisition by the Company or
a Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (3) Liens on property acquired by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary and created prior to, at
the time of, or within 180 days after the acquisition thereof, or the completion of construction, the completion of improvements or the commencement of substantial commercial operation of such property, for the purpose of financing all or any part
of the purchase price thereof, such construction or the making of such improvements; 
 (4) Liens to secure indebtedness
owing to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (5) Liens existing on the date of the initial issuance of any Notes; 

(6) Liens on property, shares of stock or indebtedness of a Person existing at the time such Person is merged into or
consolidated with the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary or at the time of a sale, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties of a Person as an entirety or substantially as an entirety to the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary, provided that such Lien was not incurred in contemplation of such merger or consolidation or sale, lease or other disposition; 

(7) Liens in favor of the United States of America or any state, territory or possession thereof (or the District of Columbia),
or any department, agency, instrumentality or political subdivision of the United States of America or any state, territory or possession thereof (or the District of Columbia) to secure partial, progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any
contract or statute or to secure any indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or the cost of constructing or improving the property subject to such liens; or 

(8) extensions, renewals or replacements of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (1) through (7) or of any
Debt secured thereby; provided, however, that such extension, renewal or replacement Lien shall secure no larger an amount of Debt than that existing at the time of such extension, renewal or replacement. 

  
 10 








 (b) Notwithstanding the restrictions in Section 4.01(a), the Company or a Restricted
Subsidiary may issue, incur, create, assume or guarantee Debt secured by a Lien which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions, without equally and ratably securing the Notes, provided that after giving effect thereto, the

Restricted Subsidiaries or between Restricted Subsidiaries, unless at the effective time of such transaction: 
 (1) the
Company or the Restricted Subsidiary would be entitled, pursuant to the covenant relating to Limitation on Liens set forth in Section 4.01, without equally and ratably securing the Notes, to incur Debt secured by a Lien on the Principal
Property involved in such transaction in an amount at least equal to the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Lease-Back Transaction; or 

(2) the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary applies, within 180 days of the effective date of the Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, an amount equal to the greater of (i) the net proceeds of such sale or (ii) the Attributable Debt with respect to such Sale and Lease-Back

ARTICLE V 
 PAYMENT
OF ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS 
 SECTION 5.01. Payment of Additional Amounts. 

(a) All payments in respect of the Notes shall be made by or on behalf of the Company free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding
for or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature required to be deducted or withheld by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United
States, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. If such withholding or deduction is required by law, the Company will pay to a holder or beneficial owner who is not a United States person such additional amounts (the
“Additional Amounts”) as are necessary in order that the net payment received by such holder or beneficial owner, after such withholding or deduction, will not be less than the amount that such holder or beneficial owner would have
received absent such withholding or deduction. 

  
 11 








 (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligation to pay Additional Amounts under
Section 5.01(a) shall not apply: 
 (1) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been
imposed but for the holder or beneficial owner, a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of the holder or beneficial owner, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder or beneficial owner,
being treated as: 
  

	 	(i)	being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the United States, being treated as having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the United States, or having or having had a
permanent establishment in the United States; 

  

	 	(ii)	having a current or former connection with the United States (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Notes or the enforcement of
any rights under the indenture), including being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof; 

  


	 	(iii)	being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a foreign tax exempt organization, or a corporation that
has accumulated earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 

  

	 	(iv)	being or having been a “10-percent shareholder,” as defined in section 871(h)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), or any successor provision, of the Company; or 

  

	 	(v)	being a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any
successor provision; 

 (2) to any beneficial owner that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a
portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner or member of the partnership or limited liability company
would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment; 

  
 12 








 (3) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been
imposed but for the failure of the holder or any other person to comply with certification, identification or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the holder or
beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a precondition to exemption from
such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 
 (4) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed
otherwise than by withholding or deducting by the Company or a Paying Agent from the payments of principal or interest on a Note; 

(5) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains or personal property tax or similar tax,
assessment or other governmental charge; 
 (6) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been
imposed but for the presentation by the holder of any Note, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for,
whichever occurs later; 
 (7) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that
is imposed on a payment pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any Treasury regulations promulgated
thereunder, or any other official interpretations thereof (collectively, “FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other official guidance
enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; 
 (8) any tax,
assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly
provided for, whichever occurs later; or 
 (9) in the case of any combination of items (1) through (8). 

SECTION 5.02. No Other Requirements. The Notes are subject in all cases to any tax, fiscal or other law or regulation or
administrative or judicial interpretation applicable to the Notes. Except as specifically provided under this Article 5, the Company shall not be required to make any payment for any tax, duty, assessment or governmental charge of whatever nature
imposed by any government or a political subdivision or taxing authority of or in any government or political subdivision.

 as
revised by “Exchanges of Interests in
 the Global Note,” attached hereto


 International Flavors & Fragrances Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the
laws of the State of New York (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to USB Nominees (UK) Limited, or
registered assigns, as the nominee of Elavon Financial Services Limited, as common depositary for Clearstream Banking, société anonyme and Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V., the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION EURO, or such
greater or lesser amount set forth on “Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note,” attached hereto, on March 14, 2024 and to pay interest thereon from March 14, 2016 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest
has been paid or duly provided for, annually in arrears on March 14 in each year, commencing March 14, 2017 at the rate of 1.75% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment; provided that any
principal and any such installment of interest that is overdue shall bear interest at the rate of 1.75% per annum (to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) from the dates such amounts are due until they are paid
or made available for payment. Interest will be 







 
computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the period for which interest is being calculated and the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid
on the Note to but excluding the next scheduled interest payment date. This payment convention is referred to as ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) (as defined in the rulebook of the International Capital Market Association). 

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for (except for Defaulted Interest), on any Interest Payment Date will, as
provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the fifteenth calendar day (whether or
not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date even if the Notes are cancelled, repurchased or redeemed after the Regular Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually
paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name the Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on a Special
Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the 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 the Indenture. 

The term “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, (1) which is not a day on which banking institutions in
The City of New York or The City of London are authorized or required by law or executive order to close and (2) on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system (the TARGET2 system), or any successor
thereto, operates. 
 Payments in respect of the Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made at the office or
agency maintained for that purpose in London (initially the office of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose); provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of
the Person entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the Security Register. 
 All payments on this Note will be made in Euro. If
the Euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control or if the Euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have
adopted the Euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars until the Euro is again
available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in Euro shall be converted into U.S. Dollars on the basis of the then most recently available Market Exchange Rate for Euro. Any payment in respect of the Notes so made in U.S.
Dollars shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for obtaining exchange rates, effecting conversions or otherwise handling redenominations. 


  
 2 








 “Euro” or “€” means the single currency introduced at the third stage of
the European Monetary Union pursuant to the Treaty establishing the European Community, as amended. 
 References herein to any payment on
the Notes include the related payment of Additional Amounts, as applicable. 
 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of the
Notes set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this
Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 (Reverse of Note) 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), issued under an
Indenture, dated as of March 2, 2016, as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 14, 2016 (collectively herein called the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such
instrument), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture). This Note is one of the series designated on the face
hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to €500,000,000. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto or Officer’s Certificates for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of
rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Noteholders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. 

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

The Notes are subject to redemption prior to the stated maturity at any time, as a whole or from time to time, in part, at the election of the
Company, at a Redemption Price equal to (a) prior to December 14, 2023, the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining
scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date (not including any portion of any payment of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on an annual basis
(ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) (as defined in the rulebook of the International Capital Markets Association)) at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate, plus 30 basis points, or (b) on or after December 14, 2023, 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable to the holders of such
Notes as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture. 

Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes. If
the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the Notes, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the applicable Depository procedures, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, or by Trustee, in accordance with the lot, in the case
of Notes that are not represented by a Global Note; provided, however, that no Notes of a principal amount of €100,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. 

In the event of redemption or repurchase of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will
be issued in the name of the Noteholder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
 If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws
(or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendments to, an official position regarding the application or
interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective on or after March 7, 2016, the Company becomes or will become obligated, based upon a written opinion of


  
 6 








 
independent counsel selected by the Company, to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Notes, and such obligation cannot be avoided by the Company taking reasonable measurers available to it,
then the Company may at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with interest accrued but unpaid on the Notes to (but excluding) the date fixed for redemption.

 Upon a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has previously exercised any right to redeem the Notes, each Noteholder
will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (in minimum denominations of €100,000 or integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof) of such holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the
“Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase (the “Change of
Control Payment”). Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurs or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control,
the Company shall mail a notice to each Noteholder (with a written copy of such notice to the Trustee) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the 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 “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required herein and described in such
notice. 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 being completed on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. The
Company shall 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 the Notes as a
result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes or the Indenture, the Company will comply with the
applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under such Change of Control Triggering Event provisions by virtue of such conflicts. 

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Note or certain affirmative or restrictive
covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Note, in each case, upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. There shall be no sinking fund with respect to the Notes. 

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur 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. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification or waiver of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the holders of the Notes to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the
Noteholders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time
Outstanding, on behalf of the holders of all of the Notes, to waive compliance with certain 

  
 7 








 
provisions of the Indenture and certain past Defaults (other than with respect to nonpayment or in respect of a provision that cannot be amended without the written consent of each Noteholder
affected) under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder 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. 
 As
provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy
thereunder, unless such holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding
shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee satisfactory indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The
foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 

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

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 any premium 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 holder hereof or its attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the
same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Notes are issuable only in registered
form without coupons in denominations of €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount
of the Notes of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Noteholder 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 Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

  
 8 








 The Indenture and this Note shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the State of New York. 
 Payment of Additional Amounts 

All payments in respect of the Notes shall be made by or on behalf of the Company free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for
or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature required to be deducted or withheld by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States,
unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. 
 If such withholding or deduction is required by law, the Company will pay to a
holder or beneficial owner who is not a United States person the Additional Amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment received by such holder or beneficial owner, after such withholding or deduction, will not be less than the amount
that such holder or beneficial owner would have received absent such withholding or deduction; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation will not apply: 

(1) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the holder or beneficial owner, a fiduciary,
settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of the holder or beneficial owner, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder or beneficial owner, being treated as: 

(i) being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the United States, being treated as having been present in, or
engaged in a trade or business in, the United States, or having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States; 
 (ii) having
a current or former connection with the United States (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Notes or the enforcement of any rights under the indenture),
including being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof; 
 (iii)
being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a foreign tax exempt organization, or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to
avoid United States federal income tax; 
 (iv) being or having been a “10-percent
shareholder,” as defined in section 871(h)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any successor provision, of the Company; or 

(v) being a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its
trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision; 

  
 9 








 (2) to any beneficial owner that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of
the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not
