(b) capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Amended Indenture;

 (c) the singular includes the plural and vice versa; 

(d) headings are for convenience of reference only and do not affect interpretation; and 

(e) for purposes of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture and the Amended Indenture, the term “series” shall mean the series of
Notes designated as Series A Ally Financial Term Notes and shall include any tranches of Series A Ally Financial Term Notes issued as part of such series. 
 ARTICLE 2 
 FORM OF SERIES A ALLY FINANCIAL TERM NOTES 

Section 2.01. Form of Series A Ally Financial Term Note. The form of any Note that is designated as a Series A Ally Financial

 ARTICLE 3 
 THE SERIES A ALLY FINANCIAL TERM NOTES 
 Section 3.01. Series A Ally
Financial Term Notes Issuable in Tranches. The Series A Ally Financial Term Notes will be issued as part of the same series and may be issued in any number of tranches. For purposes of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture references to

 Section 3.02. Additional Securities; Additional Series A Ally Financial Term Notes. For purposes of the Series A Ally Financial Term Notes, including any tranche of Series A Ally Financial
Term Notes, issued under the Indenture, a new Section 2.10 is inserted into the Amended Indenture and shall read as follows:

also, from time to time, issue additional Series A Ally Financial Term Notes in respect of an existing tranche of Series A Ally Financial Term Notes; provided, however, that such additional Series A Ally Financial Term Notes must be fungible
with any tranche of Series A Ally Financial Term Notes to which they are being added for U.S. federal income tax purposes or must be issued under a different CUSIP, ISIN and/or Common Code number, as applicable.” 

Section 3.04. Series A Ally Financial Term Notes Form a Single Series. Any Series A Ally Financial Term Notes issued as part
of the series of Notes designated as Series A Ally Financial Term Notes, in as many tranches as may be constituted thereunder, together with any other Series A Ally Financial Term Notes, will form a part of and constitute a single series of Notes
under the Indenture and shall be included in the definition of “Notes” in the Indenture where the context requires. 

ARTICLE 5 

MISCELLANEOUS 

Section 5.01. Effect of Supplemental Indenture. Upon the execution and delivery of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture by each
of the Company and the Trustee, the Amended Indenture shall be supplemented in accordance herewith, and this Fourth Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Amended Indenture for all purposes in respect of any Series A Ally Financial Term
Notes. 







 Section 5.02. Confirmation of Indenture. The Amended Indenture, as supplemented
and amended by this Fourth Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and the Amended Indenture, this Fourth Supplemental Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto shall, in respect of any Series A Ally Financial Term
Notes, be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument. This Fourth Supplemental Indenture constitutes an integral part of the Amended Indenture with respect to the Series A Ally Financial Term Notes. In the event of a conflict between

Notes. 
 Section 5.04. Concerning the Trustee. The Trustee does not make any representations as to the validity or
sufficiency of this Fourth Supplemental Indenture. The recitals and statements herein are deemed to be those of the Company and not the Trustee. In entering into this Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to the benefit of
every provision of the Amended Indenture relating to the conduct of or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee. 
 Section 5.05. Governing Law. This Fourth Supplemental Indenture and the Series A Ally Financial Term Notes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New
York. 
 Section 5.06. Separability. In case any provision contained in this Fourth Supplemental Indenture shall be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 [REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE] 

For value received, ALLY FINANCIAL INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (hereinafter
called the “Issuer” or the “Company”), hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal amount stated above as provided herein, on the Maturity Date stated above (except to the extent redeemed
or repaid prior to maturity, if applicable), in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, and to pay interest thereon, if provided for on the
face of this Note, at the Interest Rate per annum stated above, in like coin or currency, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above as the Interest Payment Period on each Interest Payment Date specified above, commencing on
[DATE], and at the Maturity Date (or on the date of redemption or repayment by the Company prior to maturity pursuant to mandatory or optional redemption provisions or the Survivor’s Option, if provided herein). 

Each payment of interest on a Note shall include accrued interest from and including the last day in respect of which interest has been
paid (or duly provided for), or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Issue Date, to, but excluding, the Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. The interest so payable on any Interest Payment
Date will, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Indenture referred to below, be paid to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding each Interest Payment Date, except
that interest payable at Maturity, on a date of redemption, if applicable, or in connection with the exercise of the Survivor’s Option, if applicable, will be payable to the person to whom principal shall be payable. 

The Bank of New York Mellon, at its corporate trust office in The City of New York, acts as the paying agent (the “Paying
Agent,” which term includes any additional or successor Paying Agent appointed by the Issuer) with respect to the Note. 

Except to the extent otherwise specified on the face of this Note, this Note shall not be subject to redemption or repayment at the
Issuer’s option or the option of the holder. If so indicated on the face hereof, this Note may be redeemed in whole or in part at the option of the Issuer or subject to repayment at the option of the holder, as applicable, as provided for on
the face hereof and in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, as applicable. 
 This Note (the “Note”) is one of
a duly authorized issue of Series A Ally Financial Term Notes (the “Series A Ally Financial Term Notes”) of the Company. The Notes are issuable under and pursuant to an indenture dated as of September 26, 1996 among the Company and
The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated 

  
 3 








 
as of January 1, 1998, a Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 30, 2006, a Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 24, 2012, and a Fourth Supplemental Indenture
dated as of August 24, 2012 (such indenture, as supplemented and as may be supplemented and amended from time to time, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a
description of the rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes. 
 The
Company may, from time to time, without the consent of the holders of the Notes or other notes of any series issued under the Indenture, issue additional notes in a new tranche of the series known as Series A Ally Financial Term Notes, and each such
new tranche of Series A Ally Financial Term Notes will be issued under a separate CUSIP, ISIN and/or Common Code number, as applicable. The Company may also, from time to time, issue additional Series A Ally Financial Term Notes in respect of an
existing tranche of Series A Ally Financial Term Notes; provided, however, that such additional Series A Ally Financial Term Notes must be fungible with any tranche of Series A Ally Financial Term Notes to which they are being added for U.S.
federal income tax purposes or must be issued under a different CUSIP, ISIN and/or Common Code number, as applicable. Any Series A Ally Financial Term Notes, together with this Note, issued under the Indenture as part of the series designated as
Series A Ally Financial Term Notes, in as many tranches as may be constituted under the Indenture, together with any other Series A Ally Financial Term Notes, will form a part of and constitute a single series of notes under the Indenture. The Notes
will initially be issued in the form of one or more global Notes (each, a “Global Senior Note”). Except as provided in the Indenture, a Global Senior Note shall not be exchangeable for one or more certificated Series A Ally
Financial Term Notes. 
 The Series A Ally Financial Term Notes will constitute unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the
Company, as described herein, and will rank pari passu without any preference among themselves. 
 In case an Event of
Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the
Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of
the holders of not less than 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of all notes of all series at the time outstanding affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as one class), evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute
supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the notes of each series;
provided, that no such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the fixed maturity of any note, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or 

  
 4 








 
reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, without the consent of the holder of each note so affected or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of notes, the consent of
the holders of which is required for any supplemental indenture, without the consent of the holders of all notes then outstanding. 
 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 places, at the respective times, at the rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, the
City of New York, a new global note for an equal aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge
imposed in connection therewith. 
 The Company and the Trustee may deem and treat the registered holder hereof as the absolute
owner hereof (whether or not this Note shall be overdue), for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and interest hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary. 
 No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or
any indenture supplemental thereto or in any note, or because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, or against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the Company or of any
successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all
such personal liability of every incorporator, stockholder, officer and director, as such, being expressly waived and released by the acceptance hereof and as a condition of and as part of the consideration for the issuance of this Note. 

This Note is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 

The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Indenture. 

Terms used herein which as defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture.

 This Global Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the
Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by the Trustee under the Indenture.
