 (REVERSE OF NOTE) 

SVB FINANCIAL GROUP 

1.800% Senior Note due 2026 

1. Interest and Principal. SVB Financial Group (the “Company”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Note at the rate per annum set forth above. Interest payments on the Notes will be the amount of interest accrued from and including October 28, 2021, or the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest has been paid to, but excluding,
the Interest Payment Date or the date of Maturity, as the case may be. The Company will pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing April 28, 2022. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months in a manner consistent with Rule 11620(b) of the FINRA Uniform Practice Code. Interest on the Notes due at Maturity shall be
payable to the persons to whom principal is payable. 
 The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at
the rate borne by the Notes, and at the same rate on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from the dates such amounts are due until such amounts are paid or made available for
payment, and such interest shall be payable on demand. 
 Payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest due on this Note at
Maturity or upon redemption will be made upon surrender of this Note at the office of the paying agent in the contiguous United States. The principal of, and premium, if any, and interest due on this Note shall be paid in such coin or currency of
the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Payments of interest (including interest on any Interest Payment Date) will be made, subject to such surrender where applicable and
subject to the Trustee’s or paying agent’s arrangements with the Depositary, at the option of the Company, (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, or
(ii) by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a banking institution in the United States of America as may be designated in writing to the Trustee or the paying agent at least 15 days prior to the date for payment by the Person
entitled thereto. 
 2. Paying Agent. Initially, U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as paying
agent. The Company may change any paying agent without notice to the Holders. 
 3. Indenture; Defined Terms. This Note is one of the
1.800% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) issued under an indenture dated September 20, 2010 (the “Base Indenture”) by and between the Company and the Trustee, and established pursuant to an
Officers’ Certificate dated October 28, 2021, issued pursuant to Section 1.02, Section 2.01 and Section 3.01 thereof (together, 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 of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”) as in
effect on the date on which the Base Indenture was qualified under the TIA; provided, however, that in the event the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 is amended after such date, “TIA” means, to the extent required by any such amendment, the
Trust Indenture Act of 1939 as so amended. 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 TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of
the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
 4. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The
Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 thereafter. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Company may require a
Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not issue,
register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portions thereof for a period of fifteen (15) days before the mailing of a notice of redemption, nor need the Company register the transfer or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in
whole or in part. 
 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 affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, 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 TIA, or make certain other changes that do not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note in any
material respect. 
 6. Redemption. The Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part at any time or from
time to time prior to September 28, 2026 (the “Par Call Date”), upon not less than 10 days nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to Holders and the Trustee, at a redemption price calculated by the Company equal to the greater of:

 (i) 100.00% 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 of and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (not
including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) as if the maturity date was the Par Call Date, discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (set forth below) plus 10 basis points, plus in each case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest on Notes that are due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling after the relevant Regular Record Date and on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the
registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the terms of the Notes and the Indenture. 











 The Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole or in part at any time or
from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, at a redemption price equal to 100.00% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity
comparable to the period from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date that would be utilized, at the time of selection in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the
period from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date. 
 “Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date,
(x) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (y) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than four such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations, or (z) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation. 

“Quotation Agent” means, at the election of the Company, one of the Reference Treasury Dealers. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (x) BofA Securities, Inc. and its respective successors; provided, however, that if BofA
Securities, Inc. shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute thereof another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (y) three or more other Primary
Treasury Dealers selected by the Company. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury
Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent 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 annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming 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. 
 The Company shall provide written notice to the
Trustee of the redemption at least two Business Days prior to the date such notice is delivered to the Holders. The Company will send notice of redemption to DTC. 

If fewer than all the Notes are redeemed, the Trustee will select the particular Notes to be redeemed on a
pro-rata basis, by lot or by such other method that the Trustee deems fair and appropriate (and in the case of the Global Securities, in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC). 











 7. Liens. As long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company will not, and it
will not permit any Subsidiary to, pledge, mortgage or hypothecate or permit to exist any pledge, mortgage or hypothecation or other lien upon any Voting Shares of any Principal Subsidiary Bank to secure any indebtedness for borrowed money without
making effective provisions whereby the Notes then outstanding, and, at the Company’s option, any other senior indebtedness ranking equally with the Notes, shall be equally and ratably secured with any and all such indebtedness. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this restriction shall not prohibit the mortgage, pledge, or hypothecation of, or the establishment of a lien
on, any such Voting Shares: 
 (i) to secure indebtedness of the Company or a Subsidiary as part of the purchase price of such Voting
Shares, or incurred prior to, at the time of or within 120 days after acquisition thereof for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof; 

(ii) by the acquisition by the Company or any Subsidiary of any Voting Shares subject to mortgages, pledges, hypothecations or other liens
existing thereon at the time of acquisition (whether or not the obligations secured thereby are assumed by the Company or such Subsidiary); 

(iii) by the assumption by the Company or a Subsidiary of obligations secured by mortgages on, pledges or hypothecations of, or other liens on,
any such Voting Shares, existing at the time of the acquisition by the Company or such Subsidiary of such Voting Shares; 
 (iv) by the
extension, renewal or refunding (or successive extensions, renewals or refundings), in whole or in part, of any mortgage, pledge, hypothecation or other lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), and (iii); provided, however, that the
principal amount of any and all other obligations and indebtedness secured thereby shall not exceed the principal amount so secured at the time of each extension, renewal or refunding, and that such extension, renewal or refunding shall be limited
to all or a part of the Voting Shares that were subject to the mortgage, pledge, hypothecation or other lien so extended, renewed or refunded; or 

(v) by liens to secure loans or other extensions of credit by a subsidiary bank subject to Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act or
any successor or similar federal law or regulations promulgated thereunder; 
 and provided, further, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may
incur or permit to be incurred or to exist upon such Voting Shares: (x) liens for taxes, assessments or other governmental charges or levies which are not yet due or are payable without penalty or of which the amount, applicability or validity
is being contested by the Company or a Subsidiary in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the Company or such Subsidiary has set aside on its books adequate reserves with respect thereto (segregated to the extent required by generally accepted
accounting principles); or (y) the lien of any judgment, if such judgment shall not have remained undischarged, or unstayed on appeal or otherwise, for more than 90 days. 











 In case the Company or any Subsidiary shall propose to pledge, mortgage or hypothecate any
Voting Shares at any time owned by it to secure any indebtedness, other than as permitted by subdivisions (i) to (v), inclusive, of this Section, the Company will prior thereto give written notice thereof to the Trustee, and will prior to or
simultaneously with such pledge, mortgage or hypothecation, by supplemental indenture delivered to the Trustee, in form satisfactory to it, effectively secure all the Notes equally and ratably with such indebtedness, by pledge, mortgage or
hypothecation of such Voting Shares. Such supplemental indenture shall contain provisions concerning the possession, control, release and substitution of mortgaged and pledged property and securities and other appropriate matters which are required
or permitted by the TIA (as in effect at the date of execution of such supplemental indenture) to be included in a secured indenture qualified under the TIA, and may also contain such additional and mandatory provisions permitted by the TIA as may
be necessary to, or as the Trustee may reasonably request to further secure, such pledge, mortgage or hypothecation. 

“Subsidiary” is defined as any corporation, a majority of the outstanding Voting Shares of which are owned, directly or indirectly,
by the Company or one or more of its subsidiaries, or by the Company and one or more of its other subsidiaries. 
 “Principal
Subsidiary Bank” is defined as Silicon Valley Bank or any other U.S. subsidiary bank of the Company, the consolidated assets of which constitute 20% or more of the Company’s consolidated assets or any other subsidiary bank of the Company
designated as a Principal Subsidiary Bank pursuant to a board resolution and set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee. 

“Voting Shares” are defined as outstanding shares of capital stock of any class having voting power under ordinary circumstances to
elect at least a majority of the board of directors. 
 8. Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default (other than certain
bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Company) under the Indenture occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, then either the Holders of at least 25 percent in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes or the
Trustee may, by written notice, require the Company 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
Company occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. 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 in their interest. 











 9. Defeasance and Discharge. Pursuant to Section 13.02 of the Base Indenture,
the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to the Notes on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 of the Base Indenture are satisfied. 

Pursuant to Section 13.03 of the Base Indenture, the Company shall be released from certain obligations and the occurrence of certain
Events of Default shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 13.04 of the Base Indenture are satisfied; provided that, for the Notes, Section 13.04(c) of the
Base Indenture shall be deemed to be replaced in its entirety as follows: “ 
 (c) In the event of an election to have
Section 13.03 apply to any Securities or any series of Securities, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the beneficial owners of such Securities will not recognize gain or
loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to such Securities and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be
the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur.” 
 10. Authentication. This Note shall not be valid until
the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note. 
 11. Abbreviations and Defined Terms. Customary
abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Note or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=
Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act). 
 12. CUSIP Numbers. Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the
Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the
Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon. 
 13. Governing Law. The laws of the State
of New York shall govern the Indenture and this Note thereof.
