 Exhibit 4.3 

RESOLUTIONS OF THE PRICING COMMITTEE 

OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF 

MASCO CORPORATION 

February 18, 2021 

WHEREAS, the Company has filed a Registration Statement (No. 333-229556) on Form S-3 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, which is in effect; 
 WHEREAS, the Company
desires to create three series of securities under the Indenture dated as of February 12, 2001, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 30, 2006 and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of
September 18, 2020 (the “Indenture”), with The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor trustee under agreement originally with Bank One Trust Company, National Association) (the “Trustee”), providing for
the issuance from time to time of unsecured debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness of this Company (“Securities”) in one or more series under such Indenture; and 

WHEREAS, capitalized terms used in these resolutions and not otherwise defined are used with the same meaning ascribed to such terms in
the Indenture. 
 RESOLVED, that there is established a series of Securities under the Indenture, the terms of which shall be as
follows (such series of Securities, the “2051 Notes”): 
  

	 	1.	 Such Securities shall be designated as the “3.125% Notes Due 2051”. 



 

	 	2.	 The aggregate principal amount of such Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture
is limited to Three Hundred Million Dollars ($300,000,000), except for such Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities of the same series pursuant to Sections 3.04,
3.05, 3.06, 9.06 or 11.07 of the Indenture. 


  

	 	3.	 The date on which the principal of such Securities shall be payable is February 15, 2051. Such Securities
are not subject to any sinking fund. 


  

	 	4.	 Such Securities shall bear interest from March 4, 2021 at the rate of 3.125% per annum, payable
semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year commencing on August 15, 2021 until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. The February 1 and August 1 (whether or not a business day),
as the case may be, immediately preceding each such interest payment date shall be the “record date” for the determination of holders to who interest is payable. 



 

	 	5.	 Such Securities shall be issued initially in the form of global securities registered in the name of
Cede & Co. as nominee of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), and will be held by the Trustee as custodian for DTC. Such Securities shall be subject to the procedures of DTC and will not be issued in definitive registered form.



  

	 	6.	 The principal of and interest on such Securities shall be payable at the office or agency of this Company
maintained for such purpose in Chicago, Illinois or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture. 


  

	 	7.	 Such Securities shall be subject to redemption in whole or in part prior to maturity, at the Company’s
option, at the applicable Redemption Price established in accordance with current market practice. “Redemption Price” means at any time prior to August 15, 2050 (six months prior to the maturity of the Securities), the greater of (i)
100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, and (ii) the sum of the present values of the principal amount of and remaining scheduled payments of interest on such
Securities to be redeemed that would be due if such Securities matured on August 15, 2050 but for the redemption (not including any portion of interest accrued as of the redemption date), discounted from the scheduled payment dates to the
redemption date on a semi-annual basis at the appropriate treasury rate plus 20 basis points plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date; provided that if the Securities are redeemed on or after August 15, 2050 (six months
prior to the maturity of the Securities), the Redemption Price will equal 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. 



The Company shall provide notice of any redemption at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of such
Securities to be redeemed. 

  
 1 














	 	8.	 Such Securities shall be issuable in denominations of Two Thousand Dollars ($2,000) and multiples of One
Thousand Dollars ($1,000) above that amount. 


  

	 	9.	 Such Securities shall be issuable at a price such that the Company shall receive Two Hundred and Ninety-Seven
Million and Three Hundred and Twenty-One Thousand Dollars ($297,321,000) after an underwriting discount of Two Million and Six Hundred and Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($2,625,000). 



 

	 	10.	 Such Securities shall be subject to Defeasance and discharge pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture and
to Covenant Defeasance pursuant to Section 10.06 of the Indenture with respect to any term, provision or condition set forth in any negative or restrictive covenant of the Company applicable to such Securities; provided, however, that
all references in Section 4.02(i) or Section 10.06(f) of the Indenture to “Holders” shall be deemed to be references to “beneficial owners.” 



 

	 	11.	 Such Securities shall be subject to the following change of control repurchase event: 



If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Securities by giving notice of such
redemption to the Holders of the Securities, the Company will make an offer to each holder of the Securities to repurchase all or any part (in multiples of $1,000) of that holder’s Securities at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Securities repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities repurchased to the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Company’s option,
prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control, the Company will send a notice to each holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the
Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the Securities on the payment 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 sent. The notice shall, if
sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. The Company will comply
with the requirements of Rule 14e-l under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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 Securities as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control
Repurchase Event provisions of the Securities, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the
Securities by virtue of such conflict. 
 On the Change of Control Repurchase Event payment date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

 a. accept for payment all Securities or portions of the Securities properly tendered pursuant to the Company’s offer;

 b. deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Securities or portions
of the Securities properly tendered; and 
 c. deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities properly
accepted, together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of the Securities being purchased by the Company. 

The paying agent will promptly send to each holder of Securities properly tendered the purchase price for the Securities, and the Trustee will
promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each holder a new Security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Securities surrendered; provided that each new Security will be in a principal
amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The Company will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Securities
upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for such an offer made by the Company and such third party purchases all Securities properly
tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. 
 “Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Securities are rated below
investment grade by both Rating Agencies on any date from the date of the public notice of an arrangement that could result in a Change of Control until the end of the 60-day period following public notice of
the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Securities is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by either of the Rating Agencies); provided that a Below Investment
Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of
the 

  
 2 













 
definition of Change of Control Repurchase Event hereunder) if the rating agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply do not announce or publicly
confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control
(whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). 
 “Change
of Control” means the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) becomes
the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Company’s Voting Stock, measured by voting power rather than number of shares. 

“Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. 

“Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of
Moody’s); a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of S&P); and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any additional rating agency or
rating agencies selected by the Company. 
 “Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., and its successors. 

“Rating Agency” means (1) each of Moody’s and S&P; and (2) if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the
Securities or fails to make a rating of the Securities publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the
Exchange Act, selected by the Company (as certified by a resolution of the Board of Directors delivered to the trustee) as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both, as the case may be. 

“S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., and any successor to its rating agency business. 

“Voting Stock” of any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) as of any date
means the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person. 

RESOLVED, that the 2051 Notes are declared to be issued under the Indenture and subject to the provisions hereof; 

RESOLVED, that with respect to the Securities of each series, (i) the Company is authorized, if reasonably requested by the
Trustee, to provide the Trustee with such reasonable information as it has in its possession to enable the Trustee to determine whether any payments pursuant to the Indenture are subject to the withholding requirements described in
Section 1471(b) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) or otherwise imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and any regulations, or agreements thereunder or official interpretations thereof
(“Applicable Law”), provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to provide information that it is prohibited legally from disclosing; and (ii) the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or
deduction from payments under the Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with Applicable Law, for which the Trustee shall not have any liability; 

RESOLVED, that the President and Chief Executive Officer or any Vice President of the Company is authorized to execute, on the
Company’s behalf and in its name, and the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary of the Company is authorized to attest to such execution and under the Company’s seal (which may be in the form of a facsimile of the Company’s seal),
$300,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2051 Notes (and in addition, Securities to replace lost, stolen, mutilated or destroyed Securities and Securities required for exchange, substitution or transfer, all as provided in the Indenture) and
to deliver such Securities to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee is authorized and directed thereupon to authenticate and deliver the same to or upon the written order of this Company as provided in the Indenture; 

RESOLVED, that the signatures of the Company officers so authorized to execute the Securities of each such series may be the manual or
facsimile signatures of the present or any future authorized officers and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced thereon, and the Company for such purpose adopts each facsimile signature as binding upon it notwithstanding the fact that at the time
the respective Securities shall be authenticated and delivered or disposed of, the individual so signing shall have ceased to hold such office; 

RESOLVED, that Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are appointed joint bookrunning managers of the
underwriters for the issuance and sale of the Securities of each series authorized hereby, and the President and Chief Executive Officer or any Vice President of the Company is authorized, in the Company’s name and on its behalf, to execute and
deliver an underwriting agreement with the underwriters, relating to the offering and sale of the Securities authorized hereby;

 REVERSE OF SECURITY 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to
be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of February 12, 2001 as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 30, 2006 and the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 18, 2020
(herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to Bank One Trust Company, National Association), as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which
term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate
principal amount to $300,000,000. 
 The Securities of this series will be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole at any time or
in part from time to time (each, a “Redemption Date”) at the applicable Redemption Price. “Redemption Price” means, at any time prior to August 15, 2050, the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the
Securities of this series to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date, and (ii) the sum, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the principal amount of and the remaining
scheduled payments of interest on the Securities of this series to be redeemed that would be due if such Securities matured on August 15, 2050 but for such redemption (exclusive of interest accrued to such Redemption Date), discounted from the
scheduled payment dates to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus
20 basis points plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date; provided that if the Securities of this series are redeemed on or after August 15, 2050, “Redemption Price” will equal 100% of the principal
amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Securities of this series that are due and payable on an Interest
Payment Date falling on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities registered as such at the close of business on the relevant record date according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.
Notwithstanding Section 11.04 of the Indenture, notice of any such redemption need not set forth the Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof. The Company shall give the Trustee written notice of the Redemption Price promptly
after the determination thereof and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for determining the Redemption Price. 
 If a Change of Control
Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Securities of this series by giving notice of such redemption to the Holders of the Securities of this series pursuant to Section 11.04 of the Indenture, the
Company will make an offer to the Holders of the Securities of this series to repurchase all or any part (in multiples of $1,000) of such Securities at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of
this series repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of this series repurchased to the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any
Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control, the Company will send a notice to each Holder of the Securities of this series, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or
may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering to repurchase the Securities of this series on the Payment 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 sent. The notice shall, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified
in the notice (the “Change of Control Repurchase Event Payment Date”). The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (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 Securities of this series as a result of a Change of Control
Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Securities of this series, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws
and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Securities of this series by virtue of such conflict. 

On the Change of Control Repurchase Event Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful: 

 

	 	1.	 accept for payment all Securities of this series or portions of the Securities of this series properly tendered
pursuant to the Company’s offer; 


  

	 	2.	 deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Securities of
this series or portions of the Securities of this series properly tendered; and 


  

	 	3.	 deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities of this series properly accepted, together with
an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series being purchased by the Company. 



The Paying Agent will promptly send to each Holder of the Securities of this series properly tendered the purchase price for the Securities of
this series, and the Trustee will promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each 

  
 8 













 
Holder a new Security of this series equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Securities of this series surrendered; provided that each new Security of this series will
be in a principal amount of $2,000 or a multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 The Company will not be required to make an offer to
repurchase the Securities of this series upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and such third
party purchases all Securities of this series properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. 
 “Below Investment Grade Rating
Event” means the Securities of this series are rated below investment grade by both Rating Agencies on any date from the date of the public notice of an arrangement that could result in a Change of Control until the end of the 60-day period following public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Securities of this series is under publicly announced consideration for
possible downgrade by either of the rating agencies); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change
of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Repurchase Event hereunder) if the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would
otherwise apply do not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the request of the Company that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in
respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). 

“Change of Control” means the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation)
the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Company’s Voting Stock, measured by voting
power rather than number of shares. 
 “Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of
Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. 
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security
selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities of this series to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, the Securities matured on August 15, 2050) 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 the Securities of this series to be redeemed. 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than five such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all
such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers
appointed by the Company. 
 “Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s (or its equivalent under
any successor rating categories of Moody’s); a rating of BBB- or better by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of S&P); and the equivalent investment grade credit rating
from any additional Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company. 
 “Moody’s” means Moody’s
Investors Service Inc., and its successors. 
 “Paying Agent” means The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. 

“Rating Agency” means (1) each of Moody’s and S&P; and (2) if either of Moody’s or S&P ceases to
rate the Securities of this series or fails to make a rating of the Securities of this series publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” within the
meaning of Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act, selected by the Company (as certified by a resolution of the Company’s board of directors delivered to the Trustee) as a replacement agency for Moody’s or S&P, or both, as the case
may be. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means (a) each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan 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 Company shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and
(b) any other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with
respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date for the Securities of this series, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each
case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent 

  
 9 













 
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. 

“S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc. and any successor to its rating agency business.

 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield
to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury
price for such Redemption Date. 
 “Voting Stock” of any specified “person” (as that term is used in
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) as of any date means the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person. 

This Security will be subject to defeasance and discharge and to defeasance of certain obligations as set forth in the Indenture; provided,
however, that all references in Section 4.02(i) and Section 10.06(f) of the Indenture to “Holders” shall be deemed to be references to “beneficial owners.” 

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 Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the
time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all
Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this
Security and of any Security 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 Security. 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security 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 Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series 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 reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series 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 Security 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 Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security herein provided,
and 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 and on face of this Security, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or
his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any multiple of $1,000 in

as requested by the Holder 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 Security 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 Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes (subject to
