0.375% Senior Notes due 2023 

United Parcel Service, Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (herein called the “Company”,
which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of New York Depository (Nominees) Limited, as nominee of The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch) as
common depositary for Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”), and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”), or registered assigns, the principal sum of SEVEN HUNDRED MILLION EUROS
(€700,000,000), or such other principal amount as may be set forth in the records of the Securities Registrar hereinafter referred to in accordance with the Indenture, on November 15, 2023 and to pay interest thereon from November 13,
2017, or from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, annually on November 15 of each year (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing November 15, 2018 at the rate of 0.375% per annum, until
the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. 
 Interest payable on this Security on any Interest Payment Date, redemption
date or maturity date shall be the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the next preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the original issue date of this
Security, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date, redemption date or maturity date, as the case may be. This payment convention is referred to as ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) as defined in the
rulebook of the International Capital Markets Association. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, but no additional interest will
accrue as a result of the delay in payment. If the maturity date or any redemption date of this Security falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest will be made on the next succeeding
Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next succeeding Business Day. The rights of Holders of beneficial interests of
Security to receive the payments of interest on such Security are subject to the applicable procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream. 
 The
interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the close of business on November 1 (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date or, if the Securities are represented by one or
more global notes, the close of business on the business day (for this purpose a day on which Clearstream and Euroclear are open for business) immediately preceding 







 
the related Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable on the maturity date or any redemption date shall be payable to the Person to whom the principal of this Security shall
be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be set by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to
such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such
exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. 
 A “Business Day” shall mean any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday,
(i) which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York or London are authorized or required by law or executive order to close and (ii) on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer
system, or the TARGET2 system, or any successor thereto, operates. 
 The “Place of Payment” with respect to this Security shall
be London, England. 
 Delivery of the Maturity Consideration and payment of interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency
of the Company maintained for that purpose in London, England, which shall initially be One Canada Square, London E14 5AL; provided, however, that at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register; provided further, that all payments of Maturity Consideration and interest with respect to the Securities of this series represented by one or more Global Securities
deposited with, or on behalf of, a common depositary, and registered in the name of the nominee of the common depositary for the accounts of Clearstream and Euroclear shall be made through the facilities of the common depositary. 

All payments of Maturity Consideration and interest will be made in euros. If the euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of
exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its control or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public
institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of this Security will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in euros will be
converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available “Market Exchange Rate” for the euro, which shall mean the noon buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of euros as certified for customs purposes (or,
if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the United States Federal Reserve Board. The Market Exchange Rate most recently available on, or prior to, the second Business Day before the relevant determination date will be the basis for
determining the equivalent of euro in the currency of the United States of America for any purpose under the Indenture, including for purposes of the definition of “Outstanding” in Section 1.01 of the Indenture. Any payments in
respect of the Securities so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an event of default under the terms of this Security or the Indenture. 







 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse
hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of
authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. 







 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

 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 August 26, 2003 (as supplemented, herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and The Bank of
New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to Citibank, N.A.), 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. 
 Optional Redemption 

The Securities are redeemable at any time prior to August 15, 2023 as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option, on at least 10
days’, but not more than 60 days’, prior notice mailed (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the applicable procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream) to the registered address of each Holder of the Securities to be redeemed, at a
redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed; and (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments (as defined below) of principal and interest on the
Securities to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)) at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate
(as defined below) plus 10 basis points; together with, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

The Securities are redeemable at any time on or after August 15, 2023 as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option, on at least 10
days’, but not more than 60 days’, prior notice mailed (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the applicable procedures of Euroclear or Clearstream) to the registered address of each holder of the Securities to be redeemed, at a
redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

“Comparable Government Bond Rate” means the yield to maturity, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, with
0.0005 being rounded upwards), on the third Business Day prior to the date fixed for redemption, of the Comparable Government Bond (as defined below) on the basis of the middle market price of the Comparable Government Bond prevailing at 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on such Business Day as determined by an independent investment bank selected by the Company. 
 “Comparable Government
Bond” means, in relation to any Comparable Government Bond Rate calculation, at the discretion of an independent investment bank selected by the Company, a German government bond whose maturity is closest to the maturity of the Securities








 
to be redeemed, or if such independent investment bank in its discretion determines that such similar bond is not in issue, such other German government bond as such independent investment bank
may, with the advice of three brokers of, and/or market makers in, German government bonds selected by the Company, determine to be appropriate for determining the Comparable Government Bond Rate. 

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Security to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of the
principal thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related redemption date but for such redemption; provided, however, that, if such redemption date is not an Interest Payment Date with respect to such Security, the amount of the
next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon will be deemed to be reduced (solely for the purposes of this calculation) by the amount of interest accrued thereon to such 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. In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, Section 11.03 of the Indenture shall apply, provided that if this Security is represented by
one or more Global Securities, beneficial interests in this Security shall be selected for redemption by Euroclear and Clearstream in accordance with their respective standard procedures therefor, provided further, however, that no Securities of
this series of a principal amount of €100,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. 
 Unless the Company defaults on the payment of the
redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed. 
 Payment of
Additional Amounts 
 Subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, the Company will pay to or on account of a beneficial
owner of Securities who is not a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that every net payment by the Company of the principal of and interest on such Securities, after
deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed upon or as a result of such payment, by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of the United States,
will not be less than the amount that would have been payable had no such deduction or withholding been required. However, the Company will not pay additional amounts for or on account of: 

(a) any such tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been so imposed but for (i) the existence
of any present or former connection between the holder or beneficial owner of a Security (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of such person, if such person is an estate, a trust, a partnership or a corporation) and
the United States, including, without limitation, such person (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder) being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been engaged in a trade or business or present
therein or having, or having had, a permanent establishment therein or (ii) the presentation, where required, by the Holder of any such Securities for payment on a date more than 15 calendar days after the date on which such payment became
due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; 







 (b) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer or personal property tax or
any similar tax, assessment or governmental charge; 
 (c) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by
reason of the Holder or beneficial owner’s past or present status as a personal holding company or foreign personal holding company or controlled foreign corporation or passive foreign investment company for U.S. federal income tax purposes or
as a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax or as a private foundation or other tax-exempt organization; 

(d) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding from payments on or in
respect of any Security; 
 (e) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for
the failure to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the holder or beneficial owner of such Security, if such compliance is required by statute or by regulation of
the United States or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 

(f) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for a failure by the holder or
beneficial owner (or any financial institution through which the holder or beneficial owner holds any Security or through which payment on the Security is made) to comply with any certification, information, identification, documentation or other
reporting requirements (including entering into and complying with an agreement with the Internal Revenue Service) imposed pursuant to, or complying with any requirements imposed under an intergovernmental agreement entered into between the United
States and the government of another country in order to implement the requirements of, Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code as in effect on the date of issuance of the Securities or any successor or amended version of these
provisions, to the extent such successor or amended version is not materially more onerous to comply with than these provisions as enacted on such date; 

(g) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by reason of such beneficial owner’s past or present status
as the actual or constructive owner of 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote of the Company or as a direct or indirect affiliate of the Company; 

(h) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be deducted or withheld by any Paying Agent from a payment on
a Security upon presentation of such Security, where required, if such payment can be made without such deduction or withholding upon presentation of such Security, where required, to any other Paying Agent; or 







 any combination of two or more of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h), 

nor shall additional amounts be paid with respect to any payment on Securities to a United States Alien Holder who is a fiduciary or
partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary
or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the additional amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the holder of the Securities.

 The term “United States Alien Holder” means any beneficial owner of a Security that is not, for United States federal income
tax purposes, (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States or any political subdivision thereof, (iii) an estate whose
income is subject to United States federal income tax regardless of its source, or (iv) a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more United States
persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or if such trust has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person. Except as specifically provided under
this heading “—Payment of Additional Amounts,” the Company will not be required to make any payment for any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by any government or a political subdivision or taxing authority of or in
any government or political subdivision. 
 To the extent permitted by law, the Company will maintain a paying agent in a Member State of
the European Union (if any) that will not require withholding or deduction of tax pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced to conform to, such
European Council Directive. 
 Redemption for Tax Reasons 

If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the United States or
of any political subdivision or any taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in, or amendment to, an official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or
amendment is announced and becomes effective on or after November 13, 2017, the Company becomes or will become obligated to pay additional amounts as described above under the heading “Payment of Additional Amounts” with respect to
the Securities of this series, then the Company may at any time at the Company’s option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Securities of this series on not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal
to 100% of their principal amount, together with any accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts on the Securities of this series to, but not including, the redemption date. If the Company exercises its option to redeem the Securities of this
series pursuant to this paragraph, it shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that it is entitled to redeem the Securities of this series and an opinion of independent tax counsel to the effect that the circumstances
described in this paragraph exist. 







 Unless the Company defaults on the payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption
date, interest will cease to accrue on the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed. 
 Additional Covenants 

The Company will not create, assume, incur or guarantee, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to create, assume, incur or guarantee,
any Secured Indebtedness without making provision whereby this Security shall be secured equally and ratably with, or prior to, such Secured Indebtedness, together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or any
Restricted Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created that is not subordinate to this Security, so long as the Secured Indebtedness shall be outstanding, unless such Secured Indebtedness, when added to (a) the aggregate amount of all
Secured Indebtedness then outstanding (not including in this computation Secured Indebtedness if this Security is secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such Secured Indebtedness and further not including in this computation any Secured
Indebtedness that is concurrently being retired) and (b) the aggregate amount of all Attributable Debt then outstanding pursuant to Sale and Leaseback Transactions entered into by the Company after January 26, 1999, or entered into by a

Net Tangible Assets.

Transaction unless (a) the sum of (i) the Attributable Debt to be outstanding pursuant to such Sale and Leaseback Transaction, (ii) all Attributable Debt then outstanding pursuant to all other Sale and Leaseback Transactions entered

termination provision is not exercised).

Securities acquired after January 26, 1999 or (iii) conditional sale agreements or other title retention agreements with respect to any Principal Property or Restricted Securities acquired after January 26, 1999, if (in each case
referred to in this subparagraph (b)) (x) such Lien or agreement secures all or any part of the Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction of such Principal Property or
improvement or Restricted Securities and (y) such Lien or agreement does not extend to any Principal Property or Restricted Securities other than the Principal Property so acquired or the Principal Property, or portion thereof, on which the
property so 







 
constructed or such improvement is located; provided, however, that the amount by which the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness secured by any such Lien or agreement exceeds the cost to
the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary of the related acquisition, construction or improvement will be considered to be “Secured Indebtedness;” 

(c) Indebtedness that is secured by Liens on Principal Property or Restricted Securities, which Liens exist at the time of
acquisition (by any manner whatsoever) of such Principal Property or Restricted Securities by the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; 

(d) Indebtedness of Restricted Subsidiaries owing to the Company or any other Restricted Subsidiary and Indebtedness of the
Company owing to any Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (e) In the case of any corporation that becomes (by any manner whatsoever) a
Restricted Subsidiary after January 26, 1999, Indebtedness that is secured by Liens upon, or conditional sale agreements or other title retention agreements with respect to, its property that constitutes Principal Property or Restricted
Securities, which Liens exist at the time such corporation becomes a Restricted Subsidiary; 
 (f) Guarantees by the Company

America, any State, Territory or possession thereof, or the District of Columbia, or any department, agency or instrumentality or political subdivision of the United States of America or any State, Territory or possession thereof, or the District of
Columbia, or in favor of any other country or any political subdivision thereof, if such Indebtedness was incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or the cost of construction of the property subject to such Lien;
provided, however, that the amount by which the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness secured by any Lien exceeds the cost to the Company or the Restricted Subsidiary of the related acquisition or construction will be considered to be
“Secured Indebtedness”; 
 (i) Indebtedness secured by Liens on aircraft, airframes or aircraft engines, aeronautic
equipment or computers and electronic data processing equipment; and 
 (j) The replacement, extension or renewal, or
successive replacements, extensions or renewals, of any Indebtedness, in whole or in part, excluded from the definition of “Secured Indebtedness” by subparagraphs (a) through (i) above; provided, however, that no Lien securing, or
conditional sale or title retention agreement with respect to, such Indebtedness will extend to or cover any Principal Property or any Restricted Securities, 







 
other than such property that secured the Indebtedness so replaced, extended or renewed, plus improvements on or to any such Principal Property, provided further, however, that to the extent that
such replacement, extension or renewal increases the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by such Lien or is in a principal amount in excess of the principal amount of Indebtedness excluded from the definition of “Secured Indebtedness”
by subparagraphs (a) through (i) above, the amount of such increase or excess will be considered to be “Secured Indebtedness.” 

In no event shall the foregoing provisions be interpreted to mean that the same Indebtedness is included more than once in the calculation of
“Secured Indebtedness” as that term is used in this Security, nor shall their operation cause this result. 
 The Indenture
contains provisions whereby (i) the Company may be discharged from its obligations with respect to the Securities (subject to certain exceptions) or (ii) the Company may be released from its obligation under specified covenants and
agreements in the Indenture, in each case if the Company satisfies certain conditions, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. For purposes of such provisions, German government securities shall be used instead of United States government
securities in respect of payments due in euros on the Securities of this series. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to the 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 issued under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate 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 aggregate 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 a written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect
of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to the trustee, 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 or delivery of
the Maturity Consideration 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 affect or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the Maturity Consideration and interest on this Security at the times,
place and rate, and in the manner, herein prescribed. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein
and in 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 Maturity Consideration 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 and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge shall be made for any
such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company and the Security Registrar 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. 

Except in the limited circumstances described in Section 3.05 of the Indenture, this Security shall be issued in the form of one or more
Global Securities and a common depositary for the accounts of Euroclear and Clearstream shall be the Depositary for such Global Security or Securities. Clause 2(A)(ii) of the eighth paragraph of Section 3.05 of the Indenture shall be
inapplicable to this Security. 
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum
denominations of €100,000 and any integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, 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. 

Notices to Holders of the Securities of this series will be sent by mail or email to the registered Holders, or otherwise in accordance with
the procedures of the applicable depositary. 
 This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws of such state. 







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







 This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the Indenture.
