Company from time to time of senior debt securities evidencing its unsecured indebtedness. 
 B. Pursuant to Board Resolutions and an

rate, maturity and other terms as the Initial Notes. Any Additional Notes and the Initial Notes shall each constitute a single series under the Indenture and all references to the Notes shall include the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes,
unless the context otherwise requires; provided that if such Additional Notes are not fungible with the Initial Notes, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the applicable Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP number. The aggregate principal
amount of each of the Additional Notes shall be unlimited. 
 (3) The entire Outstanding principal of the Notes shall be payable on
December 15, 2031.

Indenture upon the occurrence of any particular events. 
 (9) The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank
equal in right of payment to all of the Company’s other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and among themselves. 
 (10)
The Notes are not convertible into shares of common stock or other securities of the Company. 
 (11) The restrictive covenants set forth in

included in the rental payments) of the lessee for rental payments (other than amounts required to be paid on account of property taxes as well as maintenance, repairs, insurance, water rates and other items which do not constitute payments for
property rights) during the remaining portion of the base term of the lease included in such transaction.

 “Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

total voting power of the Voting Stock of the Company or other Voting Stock into which the Company’s Voting Stock is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; provided, however,

securities are accepted for purchase or exchange thereunder, or (B) any securities if such beneficial ownership (i) arises solely as a result of a revocable proxy delivered in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made pursuant to

transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (ii) no “person” (as defined above) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this

Section 1.4 Change of Control Repurchase Event.

(a) If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs with respect to the Notes, unless the Company shall have exercised its right to redeem the
Notes in full, as set forth in Section 1.3 of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture or the Company shall have defeased the Notes or have satisfied and discharged the Notes, as set forth in Article XI of the Base Indenture, each Holder of the Notes
shall have the right (a “Change of Control Right”) to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of such Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be
repurchased (such principal amount to be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be repurchased up to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the
“Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, or at the option of the Company, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control or event that
may constitute the Change of Control, the Company shall deliver a notice (a “Change of Control Notice”) to each Holder of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may
constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and the Company’s obligation to repurchase the Notes on the 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
delivered (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The Change of Control Notice shall, if delivered prior to the date of the consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Company’s obligation to repurchase the Notes is
conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Holders of Definitive Securities electing to have a Note repurchased pursuant to this Section 1.4 will be required to surrender the
Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Note completed, to the paying agent at the address specified in the notice, or Holders of Global Securities must transfer their Notes to the paying
agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the paying agent, prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. 

  
 8 












 Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Change
of Control Payment Date shall be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the Securityholders of such Notes registered as such at the close of business on the applicable record date pursuant to the Notes and the Indenture. 

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful: 

(i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Notice; 

(ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly
tendered; and 
 (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officer’s
Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being repurchased by the Company. 
 (c) The Company will not be obligated to
repurchase the Notes pursuant to this Section 1.4 if a third party agrees to repurchase the Notes in the manner, at the times required and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for the Company under this Indenture, and such third party
repurchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn by the Holders. 
 (d) The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of
Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 1.4, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have
breached its obligations under this Section 1.4 by virtue of any such conflict. 
 Section 1.5 Additional Covenants. 

The following additional covenants shall apply with respect to the Notes so long as any of the Notes remain Outstanding: 

(a) Limitation on Liens. 
 The
Company will not incur, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to incur, any indebtedness secured by a Lien on any Principal Property of the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or upon shares of stock or indebtedness of any

such Restricted Subsidiary also secures all payments due under the Notes having the benefit of this Section (together with, if the Company shall so determine, any other indebtedness or guarantees of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company
ranking equally with the Notes or such guarantee), on an equal and ratable basis with, or at the option of the Company, prior to, such other indebtedness so secured for so long as such other indebtedness shall be so secured.

Liens in favor of the United States or any state, territory or possession thereof (or the District of Columbia), or any department, agency, instrumentality or political subdivision of the United States or any state, territory or possession thereof
(or the District of Columbia), to secure partial, progress, advance or other payments pursuant to any contract or statute or to secure any indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or the cost of
constructing or improving the property subject to such Liens; or 
 (14) any extension, renewal or replacement of any Lien referred to in
clauses (1) through (13) above, inclusive, so long as (i) the principal amount of the indebtedness secured thereby does not exceed the principal amount of indebtedness so secured at the time of the extension, renewal or replacement (except
to the extent of any fees or other costs associated with any such extension, renewal or replacement) and (ii) the Lien is limited to the same property subject to the Lien so extended, renewed or replaced (and improvements on the property). 

Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in the second paragraph of Section 1.5(a) of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture, the Company
and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to incur indebtedness secured by Liens which would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions without equally and ratably securing the Notes, provided that, after giving effect to such
indebtedness, the aggregate amount of all indebtedness secured by Liens (not including Liens permitted under clauses (1) through (14) above), together with all Attributable Debt outstanding pursuant to second paragraph of Section 1.5(b) of
this Fifth Supplemental Indenture, does not exceed the greater of $500 million and 15% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company. The Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries also may, without equally and ratably securing the Notes,
create or incur Liens that extend, renew, substitute or replace (including successive extensions, renewals, substitutions or replacements), in whole or in part, any Lien permitted pursuant to the preceding sentence. 

(b) Limitation on Sale and Leaseback Transactions 

  
 11 












 The Company will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into
any sale and leaseback transaction for the sale and leasing back of any Principal Property, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, unless:

(2) such transaction was for the sale and leasing back to the Company or any of its wholly owned Subsidiaries of any Principal Property by one
of its Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (3) such transaction involves a lease for not more than three years (or which may be terminated by the
Company or its Subsidiaries within a period of not more than three years); 
 (4) the Company would be entitled to incur indebtedness
secured by a Lien with respect to such sale and leaseback transaction without equally and ratably securing the Notes pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 1.5(a) of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture; or 

(5) The Company or any Restricted Subsidiary applies an amount equal to the net proceeds from the sale of such Principal Property to the
purchase of other property or assets used or useful in its business (including the purchase or development of other Principal Property) or to the retirement of indebtedness that is pari passu with the Notes (including the Notes) within 365 days
before or after the effective date of any such sale and leaseback transaction, provided that, in lieu of applying such amount to the retirement of pari passu indebtedness, the Company may deliver Notes to the trustee for cancellation, such Notes to
be credited at the cost thereof to it. 
 Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth in Section 1.5(b) of this Fifth Supplemental
Indenture, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may enter into any sale and leaseback transaction which would otherwise be subject to the restrictions in the first paragraph of Section 1.5(b) of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture, if
after giving effect thereto the aggregate amount of all Attributable Debt with respect to such transactions, together with all indebtedness outstanding pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 1.5(a) of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture, does
not exceed the greater of $500 million and 15% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of the Company. 
 Section 1.6 Events of Default.

 This Section 1.6 shall replace Section 6.01 of the Base Indenture with respect to the Notes only.

continuing: 
 (1) default in the payment of any interest on any Note when it becomes due and payable, and the continuance of such default
for a period of 30 days (unless the entire amount of such payment is deposited by the Company with the Trustee or a Paying Agent prior to the expiration of such 30-day period); 

(2) default in the payment of the principal of or any premium, if any, on, any Note when due at its Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption
pursuant to Section 1.3 of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture or otherwise; 
 (3) failure by the Company to repurchase the Notes
tendered for repurchase following a Change of Control Repurchase Event in accordance with Section 1.4 of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture; 

  
 12 












 (4) default in the performance or breach of any covenant by the Company in the Indenture
(other than those referred to in (1), (2) or (3) above and other than a covenant that has been included in the Indenture solely for the benefit of another series of Securities), which default continues uncured for a period of 90 days after the
Company receives, by registered or certified mail, written notice from the Trustee or the Company and the Trustee receive, by registered or certified mail, written notice from the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes
Outstanding; 
 (5) the entry by a court having competent jurisdiction of:

any applicable grace period, on any indebtedness of the Company (other than indebtedness of the Company owing to any of its Subsidiaries) outstanding in an amount in excess of $100,000,000 and continuance of this failure to pay or (b) a default
on any indebtedness of the Company (other than indebtedness owing to any of its Subsidiaries), which default results in the acceleration of such indebtedness in an amount in excess of $100,000,000 without such indebtedness having been discharged or
the acceleration having been cured, waived, rescinded or annulled, in the case of clause (a) or (b) above, for a period of 30 days after written notice thereof to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of
not less than 25% in principal amount of Outstanding Notes (including any Additional Notes); provided, however, that if any failure, default or acceleration referred to in clause (a) or (b) above ceases or is cured, waived, rescinded or
annulled, then the Event of Default will be deemed cured.

 (Reverse of Note) 

AUTODESK, INC. 
 2.400%
Notes due 2031 
 This security is one of a duly authorized series of debt securities of Autodesk, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), issued or to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture for the Company’s senior debt securities, dated as of December 13, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by
and among the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 7, 2021 (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture”), by and between the Company and
the Trustee. The Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture is referred to herein as the “Indenture.” By the terms of the Base Indenture, the debt securities issuable thereunder are issuable in series
that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in other respects as provided in the Base Indenture. This security is one of the series designated on the face hereof (individually, a “Security,” and collectively, the
“Securities”), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the Trustee, the Company and the holders of the Securities (the
“Securityholders”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given them in the Base Indenture or the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, as applicable. 

1. Interest. The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at an annual rate of 2.400%. The Company will
pay interest semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year (each such day, an “Interest Payment Date”). If any Interest Payment Date, redemption date or maturity date of this Security is not a Business Day, then payment
of interest or principal (and premium, if any) shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue for the period after such date to the date of
such payment on the next succeeding Business Day. Interest on the Securities will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from the date of issuance; provided that, if
there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Security is authenticated between a regular record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such next
succeeding Interest Payment Date; and provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date shall be June 15, 2022. Interest will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. All dollar amounts resulting from this calculation shall be rounded to the nearest cent. 

2. Method of Payment. The Company will pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted interest), if any, to the Persons in whose name
such Securities are registered at the close of business on the regular record date referred to on the facing page of this Security for such interest installment. In the event that the Securities or a portion thereof are called for redemption or
there is a Change of Control Notice, and the Optional Redemption Date or the Change of Control Payment Date, as applicable, is subsequent to a regular record date with respect to any Interest Payment Date and prior to such Interest Payment Date,
interest on such Securities will instead be paid upon presentation and surrender of such Securities as provided in the Indenture. The principal of and the interest on the Securities shall be payable in the coin or currency of the United States of
America that at the time is legal tender for public and private debt, at the office or agency of the Company 

  
 A-4 












 
maintained for that purpose in accordance with the Indenture. If any of the Notes are no longer represented by a Global Security, payment of interest on certificated notes in definitive form may,
at the option of Company, be made by (i) check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, or (ii) upon request of any Holder of at least $5,000,000 principal amount of
Securities, wire transfer to an account located in the United States maintained by the such payee. 
 3. Paying Agent and Registrar.
Initially, U.S. Bank National Association, the Trustee, will act as paying agent and Security Registrar. The Company may change or appoint any paying agent or Security Registrar without notice to any Securityholder. The Company or any of its
Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity. 
 4. Indenture. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and
those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (“TIA”) as in effect on the date the Indenture is qualified. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Securityholders are referred to the Indenture
and TIA for a statement of such terms. The Securities are unsecured general obligations of the Company and constitute the series designated on the face hereof as the “2.400% Notes due 2031”, initially limited to $1,000,000,000 in aggregate
principal amount. The Company will furnish to any Securityholder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Base Indenture and the Fifth Supplemental Indenture. Requests may be made to: Autodesk, Inc., 111 McInnis Parkway, San Rafael,
California 94903, Attention: General Counsel. 
 5. Redemption. The Securities may be redeemed at the option of the Company prior to
the Stated Maturity, as provided in Section 1.3 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture. 
 The Company shall not be required to make
sinking fund payments with respect to the Securities. 
 6. Change of Control Repurchase Event. Upon the occurrence of a Change of
Control Repurchase Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem this Security or the Company has defeased this Security or satisfied and discharged this Security, the holder of this Security will have the right to require that the
Company purchase all or a portion, (such principal amount to be equal to $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess of $2,000), of this Security at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount repurchased plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, on the amount to be repurchased to, but excluding, the date of purchase. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Company shall deliver a notice to each Holder, in accordance with Section 1.4 of the
Fifth Supplemental Indenture, with a copy to the Trustee, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Right. 
 7.
Denominations, Transfer, Exchange. The Securities are in registered form without coupons in the denominations of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Securities may be registered and Securities may be
exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Securities may be presented for exchange or for registration of transfer (duly endorsed or with the form of transfer endorsed thereon duly executed if so required by the Company or the Security Registrar)
at the office of the Security Registrar or at the office of any transfer agent designated by the Company for such purpose. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but a Securityholder may be required to pay any
applicable taxes or other governmental charges. If the Securities are to be redeemed, the Company will not be required to: (i) issue, 

  
 A-5 












 
register the transfer of, or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of mailing of a notice of redemption of less than all of the
Outstanding Securities of the same series and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing; (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Security of any series or portions thereof selected for redemption, in whole or in part,
except the unredeemed portion of any such Security being redeemed in part; nor (iii) register the transfer of or exchange of a Security of any series between the applicable record date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date. 

8. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Securityholder may be treated as its owner for all purposes. 

9. Repayment to the Company. Any funds or Governmental Obligations deposited with any paying agent or the Trustee, or then held by the
Company, in trust for payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the Securities of a particular series that are not applied but remain unclaimed by the Holders of such Securities for at least two years after the date upon which the
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on such Securities shall have respectively become due and payable, shall, upon request of the Company, be repaid to the Company, or (if then held by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust. After
return to the Company, Holders entitled to the money or securities must look to the Company, as applicable, for payment as unsecured general creditors. 

10. Amendments, Supplements and Waivers. 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 a majority 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. 
 11. Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to the securities of a
series issued pursuant to the Fifth Supplemental Indenture occurs and is continuing (other than certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company), the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of
the Securities of such series then Outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if notice is given by such holders), may declare the unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest, if any, due and payable
immediately. In the case of certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company, the principal and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding Securities will become and be immediately due and payable. Subject to
the terms of the Indenture, if an Event of Default under the Indenture shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the
holders, unless such holders have offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it. Upon satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding securities of a series issued
pursuant to the Fifth Supplemental Indenture will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to
the securities of such series. 

  
 A-6 












 12. Trustee, Paying Agent and Security Registrar May Hold Securities. The Trustee,
subject to certain limitations imposed by the TIA, or any paying agent or Security Registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, paying
agent or Security Registrar. 
 13. No Recourse Against Others. No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the
Indenture, or of any Security, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect hereof or thereof, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future as such, of the Company or of any predecessor
or successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any such predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it
being expressly understood that the Indenture and the obligations issued hereunder and thereunder are solely corporate obligations, and that no such personal liability whatever shall attach to, or is or shall be incurred by, the incorporators,
stockholders, officers or directors as such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, or any of them, because of the creation of the indebtedness authorized by the Indenture, or under or by reason of the obligations, covenants
or agreements contained in the Indenture or in the Securities or implied therefrom; and that any and all such personal liability of every name and nature, either at common law or in equity or by constitution or statute, of, and any and all such
rights and claims against, every such incorporator, stockholder, officer or director as such, because of the creation of the indebtedness authorized by the Indenture, or under or by reason of the obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the
Indenture or in the Securities or implied therefrom, are hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the acceptance of the Securities. 

14. Discharge of Indenture. The Indenture contains certain provisions pertaining to discharge and defeasance, which provisions shall for
all purposes have the same effect as if set forth herein.
