 (REVERSE OF NOTE) 

APPLE INC. 
 Floating Rate Note due 2020 

 

	 	 1.
	 Interest 



Apple Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum described
below. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from May 11, 2017 or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which payment has been paid or provided for. Interest on this Note will be paid to, but excluding, the relevant Interest Payment Date.
The Issuer will pay interest quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing August 11, 2017, to Holders of record on the immediately preceding Interest Record Date; provided, that if an Interest Payment Date for this Note falls
on a day that is not a Business Day the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, unless such next succeeding Business Day would be in the following calendar month, in which case the Interest Payment Date shall be
the immediately preceding Business Day. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days that have elapsed in the applicable interest period. 

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and on overdue
installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful. 
 The interest rate for each interest
period will be determined by the Trustee (as defined below) or its successor. The interest rate for a particular interest period will be a per annum rate equal to three-month LIBOR as determined on the interest determination date plus 0.070%. The
interest determination date for an interest period will be the second London business day preceding the first day of such interest period (or, for the interest period ending on August 11, 2017, the second London business day preceding
May 11, 2017). 
 A London business day is a day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London
interbank market. 
 On any interest determination date, LIBOR will be equal to the offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having
an index maturity of three months, as such rate appears on the Reuters Page LIBOR 01 (or on such other page as may replace Reuters Page LIBOR 01 on that service, or such other service or services as may be nominated for the purpose of displaying
London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”) or its successor or such other entity assuming the responsibility of IBA or its successor in calculating LIBOR in the event IBA or its
successor no longer does so) as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such interest determination date. 







 If three-month LIBOR does not appear on either of the pages described above, the
three-month LIBOR, in respect of such interest determination date, will be determined as follows: the Trustee will request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Issuer
(after consultation with the Trustee), to provide the Trustee with its offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of three months commencing on the applicable interest reset date to prime banks in the London interbank market at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that interest determination date and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time. If at least two quotations are provided, then the
three-month LIBOR on such interest determination date will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, then the three-month LIBOR on such interest determination date will be the arithmetic mean of the
rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such interest determination date by three major reference banks in New York City selected by the Issuer (after consultation with the Trustee) for loans in U.S. dollars to leading
European banks, having an index maturity of three months and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks selected by the Issuer (after
consultation with the Trustee) are not providing quotations in the manner described by this sentence, the three-month LIBOR determined as of such interest determination date will be the three-month LIBOR in effect prior to such interest
determination date. 
 All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note will be rounded, if
necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 3.876545% (or .03876545) would be rounded to 3.87655% (or
..0387655)), and all U.S. dollar amounts will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward. Each calculation of the interest rate on this Note by the Trustee will (in the absence of
manifest error) be final and binding on the Holders of this Note and the Issuer. 
 Upon written request from any Holder of the Notes,
the Trustee will provide the interest rate in effect on such Note for the current interest period and, if it has been determined, the interest rate to be in effect for the next interest period. 

The interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by
United States law of general application.

amount of the Outstanding Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes
together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any, will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes. Holders of Notes may not enforce the
Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein
provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing defaults or Events

 (REVERSE OF NOTE) 

APPLE INC. 
 Floating Rate Note due 2022 

 

	 	 1.
	 Interest 



Apple Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum described
below. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from May 11, 2017 or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which payment has been paid or provided for. Interest on this Note will be paid to, but excluding, the relevant Interest Payment Date.
The Issuer will pay interest quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing August 11, 2017, to Holders of record on the immediately preceding Interest Record Date; provided, that if an Interest Payment Date for this Note falls
on a day that is not a Business Day the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, unless such next succeeding Business Day would be in the following calendar month, in which case the Interest Payment Date shall be
the immediately preceding Business Day. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days that have elapsed in the applicable interest period. 

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and on overdue
installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful. 
 The interest rate for each interest
period will be determined by the Trustee (as defined below) or its successor. The interest rate for a particular interest period will be a per annum rate equal to three-month LIBOR as determined on the interest determination date plus 0.350%. The
interest determination date for an interest period will be the second London business day preceding the first day of such interest period (or, for the interest period ending on August 11, 2017, the second London business day preceding
May 11, 2017). 
 A London business day is a day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London
interbank market. 
 On any interest determination date, LIBOR will be equal to the offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having
an index maturity of three months, as such rate appears on the Reuters Page LIBOR 01 (or on such other page as may replace Reuters Page LIBOR 01 on that service, or such other service or services as may be nominated for the purpose of displaying
London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”) or its successor or such other entity assuming the responsibility of IBA or its successor in calculating LIBOR in the event IBA or its
successor no longer does so) as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such interest determination date. 







 If three-month LIBOR does not appear on either of the pages described above, the
three-month LIBOR, in respect of such interest determination date, will be determined as follows: the Trustee will request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Issuer
(after consultation with the Trustee), to provide the Trustee with its offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of three months commencing on the applicable interest reset date to prime banks in the London interbank market at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that interest determination date and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time. If at least two quotations are provided, then the
three-month LIBOR on such interest determination date will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, then the three-month LIBOR on such interest determination date will be the arithmetic mean of the
rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such interest determination date by three major reference banks in New York City selected by the Issuer (after consultation with the Trustee) for loans in U.S. dollars to leading
European banks, having an index maturity of three months and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks selected by the Issuer (after
consultation with the Trustee) are not providing quotations in the manner described by this sentence, the three-month LIBOR determined as of such interest determination date will be the three-month LIBOR in effect prior to such interest
determination date. 
 All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for this Note will be rounded, if
necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 3.876545% (or .03876545) would be rounded to 3.87655% (or
..0387655)), and all U.S. dollar amounts will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward. Each calculation of the interest rate on this Note by the Trustee will (in the absence of
manifest error) be final and binding on the Holders of this Note and the Issuer. 
 Upon written request from any Holder of the Notes,
the Trustee will provide the interest rate in effect on such Note for the current interest period and, if it has been determined, the interest rate to be in effect for the next interest period. 

The interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may be modified by
United States law of general application. 
  

	 	 2.
	 Paying Agent and Security Registrar. 



Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent and Security
Registrar. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent and Security Registrar without notice to the Holders. 
  

	 	 3.

governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. 
  

	 	 5.

any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of each series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes)

rights of any Holder of the Notes in any material respect. 
  

	 	 6.
	 Defaults and Remedies.

things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the
rights of any Holder of the Notes in any material respect. 
  

	 	 6.
	 Redemption. 



Prior to the maturity date, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem any of the Notes in whole or in part at any time and from time to
time, each at a redemption price calculated by the Issuer equal to the greater of: 
 (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to
be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be
redeemed (exclusive of interest accrued to, but excluding, the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a rate equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 10 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but
excluding, the date of redemption. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on
interest payment dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the Indenture. 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as
having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (“Remaining Life”) of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt
securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes. 







 “Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date,
(1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means
one of the Reference Treasury Dealers that the Issuer shall appoint to act as the Independent Investment Banker from time to time. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and
Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and their respective successors, unless any of them ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which case the Issuer will substitute another
Primary Treasury Dealer and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer(s) the Issuer shall select. 
 “Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.

 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per year equal to: (1) the yield, under
the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in, or available through, the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication which is published weekly by
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or companion online data resource published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to
constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that, if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life of the
Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight line
basis, rounding to the nearest month; or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semiannual equivalent yield
to maturity of the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the related Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption
date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated by the Issuer on the third business day preceding the redemption date. As used in the immediately preceding sentence and in the definition of “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” above, the term
“business day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in New York City are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. 

The provisions of Article XI of the Indenture shall apply to any redemption of the Notes. 







 Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered at least 15 days but
not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of record of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. The notice of redemption for the Notes will state, among other things, the amount of Notes to be redeemed, the
redemption date, the manner in which the redemption price will be calculated and the place or places that payments will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Notes to be redeemed. Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption
price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected by the applicable procedures
of the Depositary, in the case of Notes represented by a Global Note, or by lot, in the case of Notes that are not represented by a Global Note. 
  

	 	 7.
	 Defaults and Remedies. 



If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Issuer) under the Indenture occurs with
respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, shall by written notice, require the Issuer to repay immediately the entire principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes
together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any, will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes. Holders of Notes may not enforce the
Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein
provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing defaults or Events
of Default if it determines that withholding notice is not opposed to their interest.

This Note is one of the 2.850% Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) issued under an indenture, dated as of April 29, 2013

the “Indenture”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture. 

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The terms of
the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act as in effect on the date on which the Indenture was qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of them.

	 	 5.
	 Amendment; Supplement; Waiver. 



Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and
any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of each series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes)
under the Indenture that is affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting as a single class). Without notice to or consent of any Holder of the Notes, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other
things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the
rights of any Holder of the Notes in any material respect. 
  

	 	 6.
	 Redemption. 



Prior to March 11, 2024, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem any of the Notes in whole or in part at any time and from time to
time, each at a redemption price calculated by the Issuer equal to the greater of: 
 (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to
be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be
redeemed (assuming such Notes matured on March 11, 2024), exclusive of interest accrued to, but excluding, the date of redemption, discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a rate equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 12.5 basis points, plus, in each
case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption. 
 On or after
March 11, 2024, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem any of the Notes in whole or in part at any time and from time to time, each at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid
interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing,
installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant
record date according to the Notes and the Indenture. 







 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security
selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (“Remaining Life”) of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming such Notes matured on March 11, 2024) that would be utilized, at the time of
selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes (assuming such Notes matured on March 11, 2024). 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average
of all such quotations. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers that the
Issuer shall appoint to act as the Independent Investment Banker from time to time. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer”
means (1) each of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and their respective successors, unless any of them ceases to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a
“Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which case the Issuer will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer(s) the Issuer shall select. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date,
the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent
Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date. 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per year equal to: (1) the yield, under the
heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in, or available through, the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or companion online data resource published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System) and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to
constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that, if no maturity is within three months before or after the Remaining Life of the
Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight line
basis, rounding to the nearest month; or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semiannual equivalent yield
to maturity of the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the related Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption
date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated by the Issuer on the third business day preceding the redemption date. As used in the immediately preceding sentence and in the definition of “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” above, the term
“business day” means any day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which commercial banks in New York City are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close. 







 The provisions of Article XI of the Indenture shall apply to any redemption of the Notes.

 Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the
redemption date to each Holder of record of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered address. The notice of redemption for the Notes will state, among other things, the amount of Notes to be redeemed, the redemption date, the manner in which the
redemption price will be calculated and the place or places that payments will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Notes to be redeemed. Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date,
interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected by the applicable procedures of the Depositary, in the case of Notes
represented by a Global Note, or by lot, in the case of Notes that are not represented by a Global Note. 
  

	 	 7.
	 Defaults and Remedies. 



If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Issuer) under the Indenture occurs with
respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, shall by written notice, require the Issuer to repay immediately the entire principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes
together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any, will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes. Holders of Notes may not enforce the
Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein
provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing defaults or Events
of Default if it determines that withholding notice is not opposed to their interest.
