 (REVERSE OF SECURITY) 

MEDTRONIC GLOBAL HOLDINGS S.C.A. 

1.700% Senior Note Due 2019 

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 March 28, 2017 (the “Base Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 28, 2017 (the “First
Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Medtronic Public Limited Company, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of Ireland, Medtronic, Inc., a
Minnesota corporation, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture 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 $1,000,000,000. The Company may at any time issue additional Securities under the Indenture in unlimited amounts having the same
terms as the Securities; provided that no additional Securities may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities. 

The Securities of this series may be redeemed at any time prior to their maturity, as a whole or in part, at the option of the Company, upon
mailing notice of such redemption not less than 15 and not more than 60 days to the Holders of such Securities, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of: 

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed; and 

(ii) the sum, as determined by a Quotation Agent, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and
interest on the Securities to be redeemed (excluding any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date), discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 10 basis points, 
 plus, in each case,
accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 
 In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new
Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series
may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 







 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the
modification 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 compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and 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 indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request, 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. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, 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 any premium 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 the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new

 (REVERSE OF SECURITY) 

MEDTRONIC GLOBAL HOLDINGS S.C.A. 

3.350% Senior Note Due 2027 

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 March 28, 2017 (the “Base Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 28, 2017 (the “First
Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Medtronic Public Limited Company, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of Ireland, Medtronic, Inc., a
Minnesota corporation, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture 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 $850,000,000. The Company may at any time issue additional Securities under the Indenture in unlimited amounts having the same terms
as the Securities; provided that no additional Securities may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Securities. 

The Securities of this series may be redeemed at any time prior to their maturity, as a whole or in part, at the option of the Company, upon
mailing notice of such redemption not less than 15 and not more than 60 days to the Holders of such Securities, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of: 

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed; and 

(ii) the sum, as determined by a Quotation Agent, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and
interest on the Securities to be redeemed (excluding any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date and assuming that such Securities matured on 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 Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 15 basis points, 

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 

In addition, at any time on and after the Par Call Date, the Securities are redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at a
Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 







 In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this
series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series
may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain
exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification 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 compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and 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 indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in
compliance with such request, 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. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, 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 any
premium 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 the Holder’s attorney
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, 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 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No
service charge shall be made to a Holder 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, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

Reference is made to the Indenture. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth herein. 

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