Securities of the Company designated as the “5.625% Notes Due 2034” (the “Notes”), initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of £1,000,000,000 on March 27, 2009. Such series of Securities has been established
pursuant to, and is one of an indefinite number of series of debt securities of the Company, issued or issuable under and pursuant to, the Indenture, dated as of July 19, 2005, by and between the Company, as Issuer, and The Bank of New York
Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of December 1, 2006, by and between the Company, as Issuer, and the Trustee (the “Indenture”), to which
Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms
upon which this Note is, and is to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms, conditions and provisions of the Notes are those stated in the Indenture, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended,
and those set forth in this Note. To the extent that the terms, conditions and other provisions of this Note modify, supplement or are inconsistent with those of the Indenture, then the terms, conditions and other provisions of this Note shall
govern. 
 All capitalized terms which are used but not defined in this Note shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 The Company may, without the consent of the Holders, create and issue additional Securities ranking equally with the Notes and otherwise
identical in all respects (except for their date of issue, issue price and the date from which interest payments thereon shall accrue) so that such additional Securities shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Notes; provided,
however, that no additional Securities of any existing or new series may be issued under the Indenture if an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured thereunder. 
 2. Ranking. The Notes shall constitute the senior unsecured debt obligations of the Company and shall rank equally in right of payment among
themselves and with all other existing and future senior unsecured debt obligations of the Company. 
 3. Payment of Overdue Amounts.
The Company shall pay interest, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, on overdue principal and overdue installments of interest, if any, from time to time, on demand at the interest rate borne by the Notes to
the extent lawful. 
 4. Payment of Additional Amounts; Redemption Upon a Tax Event. 
 (a) Payment of Additional Amounts. The Company shall pay to the Holder (including, for purposes of this Section 4, each beneficial owner) of
this Note who is a Non-U.S. Person (as defined below) additional amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment of principal of and interest on this Note to such Holder, after deduction or withholding for or on 








 
account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed upon such Holder by the United States of America or any taxing
authority thereof or therein, will not be less than the amount provided in this Note to be then due and payable (such amounts, the “Additional Amounts”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any payment
of Additional Amounts for or on account of: 
 (i) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for
(A) the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder, or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, trust, partnership or
corporation, and the United States including, without limitation, such Holder, or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or possessor, being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States of America or treated as a
resident thereof or being or having been engaged in trade or business or present in the United States of America or (B) the presentation of this Note for payment on a date more than 30 days after the later of (x) the date on which such
payment becomes due and payable and (y) the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for; 
 (ii) any estate, inheritance, gift,
sales, transfer, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 
 (iii) any tax, assessment or other
governmental charge imposed on foreign personal holding company income or by reason of such Holder’s past or present status as a passive foreign investment company, a controlled foreign corporation or a personal holding company with respect to
the United States of America or as a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 
 (iv) any tax,
assessment or other governmental charge which is payable otherwise than by withholding from payment of principal of or interest on this Note; 
 (v) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any paying agent from any payment of principal of or interest on this Note if such payment can be made without withholding by any other paying agent;

 (vi) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification,
information, documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections with the United States of America of the Holder of this Note, if such compliance is required by statute or by regulation of the
United States Treasury Department as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 
 (vii)
any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed on interest received by (A) a 10% shareholder (as defined in Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the
regulations that may be promulgated thereunder) of the Company or (B) a controlled foreign corporation with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Code; 
  


 2 








 (viii) any withholding or deduction that is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be
made pursuant to that European Union Directive relating to the taxation of savings adopted on June 3, 2003 by the European Union’s Economic and Financial Affairs Council, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to
conform to, such Directive; or 
 (ix) any combination of items (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (vii) and (viii) in this
Section 4(a); 
 nor shall any Additional Amounts be paid to any Holder who is a fiduciary or partnership to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor
with respect to such fiduciary, or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner thereof, would not have been entitled to the payment of such Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the Holder.

foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual who has not made a valid election to be treated as a United States resident, a non-resident fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust, or a foreign partnership one or more of the members of which is,
as to the United States of America, a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual or a non-resident fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust. 
 (b) Redemption Upon a Tax Event. The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company in whole, but not in part, on a date (such date, the “Tax Redemption Date”) to be fixed by the Company on not
more than 60 days’ and not less than 30 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes (the “Tax Redemption Price”) plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, and any Additional Amounts
thereon, if the Company determines that as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws, treaties, regulations or rulings of the United States of America or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof, or any proposed change in such
laws, treaties, regulations or rulings, or any change in the official application, enforcement or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations or rulings, including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States of
America, or any other action, other than an action predicated on laws generally known on or before March 20, 2009 except for proposals before the U.S. Congress before such date, taken by any taxing authority or a court of competent jurisdiction
