 INDENTURE, dated as of December 7, 2017, between Prudential Financial, Inc., a New Jersey

authorized the execution and delivery of this Indenture to provide for the issuance of its 3.905% Senior Notes due 2047 and its 3.935% Senior Notes due 2049 issued hereunder. 

All things necessary to make this Indenture a valid, legal and binding agreement of the Company, in accordance with its terms, have been done.

 This Indenture is subject to, and shall be governed by, the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act that are required to be a part of and
govern indentures qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. 
 THIS INDENTURE WITNESSETH 

For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Notes by the Holders thereof, the parties hereto covenant and agree, for the
equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders, as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 

DEFINITIONS AND INCORPORATION BY REFERENCE 

Section 1.01. Definitions. 

“Additional Interest” means all additional interest owing on the Notes pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement. 

“Additional Notes” means the Company’s 3.905% Senior Notes due 2047 and its 3.935% Senior Notes due 2049 issued under
the terms of this Indenture after the Issue Date and in compliance with Section 2.14 (it being understood that any Notes issued in exchange for or replacement of any Issue Date Note shall not be an Additional Note,
including any such Notes issued pursuant to a Registration Rights Agreement). 
 “Affiliate” means, with respect to any
specified Person, any other Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under direct or indirect common control with, such specified Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” (including, with correlative meanings,
the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with”) with respect to any Person, means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and
policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. 
 “Agent” means any
Registrar, Paying Agent or Authenticating Agent. 
 “Agent Member” means a member of, or a participant in, the Depositary.








 “Applicable Procedures” means, with respect to any transfer or transaction of or
for beneficial interests in a Global Note, the rules and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, in each case to the extent applicable to such transaction and as in effect from time to time. 

“Authenticating Agent” refers to a Person engaged to authenticate the Notes instead of the Trustee. 

“Board of Directors” means the board of directors or comparable governing body of the Company, or any committee thereof duly
authorized to act on its behalf. 
 “Board Resolution” means a resolution duly adopted by the Board of Directors or any
duly authorized committee of that board or any officer of the Company to which authority to act on behalf of the Board of Directors has been duly delegated, which shall be certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company and
remain in full force and effect as of the date of its certification. 
 “Business Day” means any day that is neither a
Saturday or Sunday, nor a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. 

“Clearstream” means Clearsteam Banking, société anonyme, or the successor to its securities clearance and
settlement operations. 
 “CMT Rate” for the relevant Redemption Date means the
one-week average yield for U.S. Treasury securities at “constant maturity” for a period equal to the Designated CMT Maturity as set forth in H.15(519) under the heading “Week Ending” and
opposite the heading “Treasury constant maturities” for the week preceding such Redemption Date, as such average is displayed on the Reuters FEDCMT Screen Page for the week preceding such Redemption Date. 

If the CMT Rate cannot be determined as described above, the following procedures will apply in determining the CMT Rate: 

(i) If the applicable average described above is not displayed on the Reuters FEDCMT Screen Page, then the CMT Rate for the relevant Redemption
Date will be the one-week average yield for U.S. Treasury securities at “constant maturity” for a period equal to the Designated CMT Maturity as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Week
Ending” and opposite the heading “Treasury constant maturities” for the week preceding such Redemption Date. 
 (ii) If the
applicable average described in clause (i) above does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for the relevant Redemption Date will be the one-week average yield for U.S. Treasury securities at
“constant maturity” for a period equal to the Designated CMT Maturity as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week preceding such Redemption Date. 

  
 2 








 (iii) If for the week preceding the relevant Redemption Date the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
does not publish a one-week average yield for U.S. Treasury securities at “constant maturity” for a period equal to the Designated CMT Maturity for the preceding week, then the CMT Rate for such
Redemption Date will be the yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates for the most recently issued U.S. Treasury securities having an original maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity and a
remaining term to maturity of not less than the Designated CMT Maturity minus one year, and in a Representative Amount, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date, quoted by three
primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City selected by the Company. In selecting these bid rates, the Company will request quotations from five primary dealers and will disregard the highest quotation—or, if there is equality,
one of the highest—and the lowest quotation—or, if there is equality, one of the lowest. If fewer than five but more than two such bid rates are provided, the CMT Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices provided, and
neither the highest nor lowest of those quotations will be eliminated. 
 (iv) If the Company is unable to obtain three quotations of the
kind described in clause (iii) above, the CMT Rate for the relevant Redemption Date will be the yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates for U.S. Treasury securities with an original maturity longer than
the Designated CMT Maturity, with a remaining term to maturity closest to the Designated CMT Maturity and in a Representative Amount, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date,
of three primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City selected by the Company. In selecting these bid rates, the Company will request quotations from five of these primary dealers and will disregard the highest quotation—or, if
there is equality, one of the highest—and the lowest quotation—or, if there is equality, one of the lowest. If fewer than five but more than two of these primary dealers are quoting, then the CMT Rate for such Redemption Date will be based
on the arithmetic mean of the bid rates so obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of those quotations will be disregarded. If two U.S. Treasury securities with an original maturity longer than the Designated CMT Maturity have remaining
terms to maturity that are equally close to the Designated CMT Maturity, the Company will obtain quotations for the U.S. Treasury securities with the shorter original term to maturity. 

(v) If two or fewer primary dealers selected by the Company are quoting as described in clause (iv) above, the CMT Rate for the relevant
Redemption Date will be the rate determined by the Company in its sole discretion, after consulting such sources as it deems comparable to any of the foregoing quotations or display page, or any such source as it deems reasonable from which to
estimate the one-week average for U.S. Treasury securities at constant maturity or any of the foregoing bid rates. 

The Trustee shall not be responsible for any calculations or otherwise determining the CMT Rate.

replacement Note is an additional obligation of the Company and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture. An indemnity must be furnished by the Holder that is sufficient in the judgment of both the Trustee and the Company to protect the Company and
the Trustee from any loss they may suffer if a Note is replaced. The Company may charge the Holder for the expenses of the Company and the Trustee in replacing a Note. In case the mutilated, lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken Note has become or is
about to become due and payable, the Company in its 

  
 18 








 
discretion may pay the Note instead of issuing a replacement Note. Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 2.07, the Company may require the payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee) connected therewith. 

Section 2.08. Outstanding Notes. 

(a) Notes “outstanding” at any time are all Notes that have been authenticated by the Trustee except for: 

(1) Notes cancelled by the Trustee or delivered to it for cancellation; 

(2) any Note which has been replaced pursuant to Section 2.05 unless and until the Trustee and the
Company receive proof satisfactory to them that the replaced Note is held by a bona fide purchaser in whose hands such Note is a valid obligation of the Company; and (iii) on or after the Maturity date or any Redemption Date, those Notes
payable or to be redeemed or purchased on that date for which the Trustee (or Paying Agent, other than the Company or an Affiliate of the Company) holds in trust money sufficient to pay all amounts then due; provided that if such Notes, or
portions thereof, are to be redeemed prior to the maturity thereof, notice of such redemption shall have been given as herein provided, or provisions satisfactory to the Trustee shall have been made for giving such notice; and (iv) solely to
the extent provided in Article VIII, Notes which are subject to legal defeasance or covenant defeasance as provided in Section 8.03 or Section 8.04. 

(b) A Note does not cease to be outstanding because the Company or one of its Affiliates holds the Note, provided that in determining
whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of the outstanding Notes have given or taken any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action hereunder, Notes owned by the Company or any Affiliate of the
Company shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding (it being understood that in determining whether the Trustee is protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action, only
Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded). Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the
pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any Affiliate of the Company. 
 (c) In
determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of outstanding Notes have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, Notes owned beneficially by the Company or any other obligor on the
Notes with respect to which such determination is being made or any Person, directly or indirectly, controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect control with the Company or any other obligor on the Notes with respect to which such
determination is being made shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only
Notes which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee knows to be so owned shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned by the Company which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as outstanding for such purpose if the pledgee establishes to the
satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company. 

  
 19 








 Section 2.09. Temporary Notes. In the event that Definitive
Notes are to be issued under this Indenture, until Definitive Notes are ready for delivery, the Company may prepare and the Trustee shall authenticate temporary Notes upon a Company Order. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of
Definitive Notes but may have insertions, substitutions, omissions and other variations determined to be appropriate by the Officer executing the temporary Notes, as evidenced by the execution and authentication of the temporary Notes. If temporary
Notes are issued, the Company shall cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at
the office or agency of the Company designated for the purpose pursuant to Section 4.02, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any temporary Notes, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of Definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Notes shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture as Definitive Notes. 

Section 2.10. Cancellation. The Company at any time may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes
previously authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated hereunder that the Company has not issued and sold. Any
Registrar or the Paying Agent shall forward to the Trustee any Notes surrendered to it for transfer, exchange or payment. The Trustee shall cancel all Notes surrendered for transfer, exchange, payment or cancellation and dispose of them in
accordance with its normal procedures or a Company Order. The Trustee shall deliver certification of all cancelled Notes to the Company and shall return cancelled Notes to the Company upon written request. The Company may not issue new Notes to
replace Notes it has paid in full or delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. If the Company acquires any of the Notes, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of indebtedness represented by such Notes unless or until
the same are delivered to the Trustee for cancellation. 
 Section 2.11. CUSIP and ISIN Numbers. The
Company in issuing the Notes may use “CUSIP” and “ISIN” numbers, and the Trustee shall use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders. Any such notice may state that no representation
is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption or exchange and reliance may be placed only on the identification number printed on the Notes, and any such redemption or
exchange shall not be affected by any defect or omission in such numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP or ISIN numbers. 

Section 2.12. Defaulted Interest. If the Company defaults in a payment of interest (including Additional
Interest, if any) on the Notes, such installment of interest shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders in whose names the Notes were registered on the Regular Record Date applicable to such installment of interest. Defaulted interest
(including any interest on such defaulted interest) may be paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in clause (a) or (b) below. 

  
 20 








 (a) The Company may elect to make payment of any defaulted interest (including any interest on
such defaulted interest) to the Holders in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest (a “Special Record Date”), which shall be fixed in the
following manner. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of defaulted interest proposed to be paid and the date of the proposed payment. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted
interest, which shall not be more than 15 calendar days and not less than 10 calendar days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 calendar days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The
Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payments of such defaulted interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be sent, first-class mail, postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder’s address as it appears in the registration books of the Registrar, at least 15 calendar days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the
proposed payment of such defaulted interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such defaulted interest shall be paid to the Holders in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on such Special
Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (b). 
 (b) Alternatively, the Company may make payment of any
defaulted interest (including any interest on such defaulted interest) in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such
exchange, if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (b), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee. 

Section 2.13. Computation of Interest. Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 

Section 2.14. Issuance of Additional Notes. After the Issue Date, the Company shall be entitled, without the
notice or consent of Holders, to issue Additional Notes under this Indenture, which Notes shall have identical terms as the Notes issued on the Issue Date, other than with respect to the date of issuance, issue price, original interest accrual date
and original interest payment date, and such Additional Notes may not have the benefit of registration rights. All the Notes issued under this Indenture shall be treated as a single class and consolidated and form a single series with the Issue Date
Notes for all purposes of this Indenture including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. Such Additional Notes shall be issued for U.S. federal income tax purposes in a “qualified reopening” or with no more than a de
minimis amount of original issue discount. 
 With respect to any Additional Notes, the Company shall set forth in an Officer’s
Certificate, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Trustee, the following information: 
 (a) the aggregate principal amount of such
Additional Notes to be authenticated and delivered pursuant to this Indenture; 

  
 21 








 (b) the issue price, the issue date and the CUSIP number of such Additional Notes and whether
such Additional Notes have the benefit of registration rights; and 
 (c) whether such Additional Notes shall be Restricted Notes and issued
in the form of Issue Date Notes or shall be issued in the form of Exchange Notes. 
 ARTICLE III

Company, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed, not including any portion of these payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date to the applicable Par Call

Company’s determination of the Redemption Price, plus a number of basis points equal to the applicable Make-Whole Spread (as set forth in the table below), plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest to

 Section 3.02. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. The election of the
Company to redeem any Notes shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company of less than all the Notes of either series (including any
such redemption affecting only a single Note), the Company shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Company (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and
of the principal amount of Notes of such series to be redeemed. 
 Section 3.03. Selection of Notes to Be
Redeemed. 
 (a) If less than all the Notes of either series are to be redeemed (unless such redemption affects only a single Note), the
particular Notes to be redeemed shall be selected in accordance with the procedures of DTC, from the outstanding Notes of such series not previously called for redemption, which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the
principal amount of any Note of such series, provided that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Note shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Note.


  
 22 








 (b) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected for redemption
and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. 
 (c) The provisions of
paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 3.03 shall not apply with respect to any redemption affecting only a single Note, whether such Note is to be redeemed in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in
part, the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of the Note shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Note. 

(d) For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Note shall relate,
in the case of any Notes redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Notes which has been or is to be redeemed. 

Section 3.04. Notice of Redemption. Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided in
Section 10.02(a) not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, at his address appearing in the Register. 

All notices of redemption shall state: 

(1) the Redemption Date, 

(2) the Redemption Price or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof, 

(3) if less than all the outstanding Notes of either series consisting of more than a single Note are to be redeemed, the
identification (and, in the case of partial redemption of any such Notes, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed and, if less than all the outstanding Notes of either series consisting of a single Note are to be redeemed, the
principal amount of the particular Note to be redeemed, 
 (4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become
due and payable upon each such Note to be redeemed and, if applicable, that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, and 

(5) the place or places where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price. 

Notice of redemption of Notes to be redeemed at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by
the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 

  
 23 








 Section 3.05. Deposit of Redemption Price. On or prior to 10:00
a.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in
Section 4.03) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Notes which are to be redeemed on that date.

 Section 3.06. Notes Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the
Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified, and from and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such
Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Note for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Note shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date;
provided, however, that installments of interest whose Interest Payment Date is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates
according to their terms and the provisions of Section 2.03. If any Note called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest
from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Note. 
 Section 3.07. Notes Redeemed in
Part. Any Note which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at a Place of Payment therefor (with, if the Company or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company
and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Company may execute, and the Trustee may authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note without service charge, a new Note or Notes of the
same series and of like tenor, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Note so surrendered. 

ARTICLE IV 

COVENANTS 

Section 4.01. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of

Section 4.02. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 

(a) The Company will maintain in each Place of Payment for each series of Notes an office or agency where the Notes of that series may be

served. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to
furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such
presentations, surrenders, notices and demands. 

  
 24 








 (b) The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies where
the Notes of one or both series may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind such designations; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the
Company of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in each Place of Payment for Notes of either series for such purposes. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and of any change in
the location of any such other office or agency. 
 Section 4.03. Money for Note Payments to be Held in
Trust. 
 (a) If the Company shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent with respect to each series of Notes, it will, on or before
each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Notes of that series, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or
interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 

(b) Whenever the Company shall have one or more Paying Agents for each series of Notes, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of
(and premium, if any) or interest on any of the Notes of that series, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons
entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Company will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act. 

(c) The Company will cause each Paying Agent for each series of Notes other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an
instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.03, that such Paying Agent will: 

(1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on the Notes of that series
in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided; 

(2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the Notes of that series) in the making of
any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Notes of that series; and 
 (3) at any time during the
continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent. 

  
 25 








 (d) The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of
this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which
such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such money. 

(e) Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Company, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and
premium, if any) or interest on the Notes of either series and remaining unclaimed for one year after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Company on Company Request, or (if then held by
the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Notes shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to
such trust money, and all liability of the Company as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease. 
 Section 4.04.
Corporate Existence. Subject to Article V, the Company will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect its corporate existence and all licenses and permits material to
the normal conduct of its business; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise if the Board of Directors shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the
conduct of the business of the Company and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders. 

Section 4.05. Limitation on Liens. The Company will not, and will not permit any Subsidiary to create,
assume, incur or guarantee any indebtedness for money borrowed which is secured by a mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest or other encumbrance (each, an “Encumbrance”) of any nature on any of the common stock of The Prudential
Insurance Company of America (the “Designated Subsidiary”), of any successor to substantially all of the business of the Designated Subsidiary which is also a Subsidiary of the Company, or of any corporation (other than the Company)
directly or indirectly controlling the Designated Subsidiary unless the outstanding Notes (together with such other indebtedness of the Company or the Designated Subsidiary then existing or thereafter created which is not subordinate to the
outstanding Notes as the Company may elect in its discretion) shall be secured equally and ratably with (or prior to) such secured indebtedness for money borrowed so long as such secured indebtedness for money borrowed shall be outstanding. This
Section 4.05 shall not prevent or restrict the sale or other disposition of the Designated Subsidiary. 

Section 4.06. Statement by Officers as to Default. The Company will deliver to the Trustee, within 120 days
after the end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officer’s Certificate, stating whether or not to the best knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in the performance and observance of any of
the terms, provisions, covenants and conditions of this Indenture, and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which they may have knowledge. 

  
 26 








 Section 4.07. Waiver of Certain Covenants. The Company may, with
respect to the Notes of either series, omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in any covenant provided pursuant to Section 9.01(b) for the benefit of the Holders of such
series or in any of Section 4.02, Section 4.04 and Section 4.05, inclusive, if before the time for such compliance the Holders of not less than a majority in principal
amount of the outstanding Notes of such series shall, by either waive such compliance in such instance or generally waive compliance with such term, provision or condition but no such waiver contemplated by this
Section 4.07 shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee
in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

Section 4.09 as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission; and 
 (d)
delivery of such reports, information and documents to the Trustee is for informational purposes only and the Trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from
information contained therein, including the Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on Officer’s Certificates).

 Section 6.02. Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment. 

(a) If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes of either series at the time outstanding occurs and is continuing, then and in every such
case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of that series may declare the principal amount of all of the Notes of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the
Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount shall become immediately due and payable. 

(b) At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Notes of either series has been made and before a judgment or
decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article VI provided, the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of that series, by written notice to
the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
 (1) the Company has paid or
deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay; 
 (i) all overdue interest on all Notes of that series; 

(ii) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) the Notes of that series which have become due otherwise than by such
declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Notes; 
 (iii) to the
extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate or rates prescribed therefor in such Notes; and 

(iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances
of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; 
 and 

(2) all Events of Default with respect to Notes of that series, other than the
non-payment of the principal of Notes of that series which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 6.13. 

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.03. Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. 

(a) The Company covenants that if 

(1) default is made in the payment of any interest on the Notes when such interest becomes due and payable and such default
continues for a period of 30 days, or 
 (2) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) the
Notes at the Maturity thereof, the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to it, for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on such Notes for principal (and premium, if any) and


  
 30 








 
interest and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and on any overdue interest, at the rate or rates
prescribed therefor in such Notes, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its
agents and counsel. If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute
such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Notes and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company
or any other obligor upon such Notes, wherever situated. 
 (b) If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes of either series occurs and
is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of Notes of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem necessary to protect and enforce any
such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy. 

Section 6.04. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. 

(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or
other judicial proceeding relative to the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes or the property of the Company or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Notes shall then be due and
payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Company for the payment of overdue principal or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such
proceeding or otherwise, 
 (1) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and
interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents and take any and all actions authorized under the Trust Indenture Act as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including
any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 

(2) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized
by each Holder to make such payments to the Trustee and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07. 

  
 31 








 (b) Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to
or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any
such proceeding. 
 Section 6.05. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All rights of
action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of the Notes or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee
shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for
the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of which such judgment has been recovered. 

Section 6.06. Application of Money Collected. Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this
Article VI shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the
Notes and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid: 
 FIRST: To the payment of
all amounts due the Trustee under Section 7.07; 
 SECOND: To the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes in respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes
for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and 
 THIRD: The balance, if any, to the Company. 

Section 6.07. Limitation on Suits. No Holder of any Notes of either series shall have any right to institute
any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless: 

(a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes of that series;

 (b) the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of that series shall have made written request to the
Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder; 
 (c) such Holder or Holders have
offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request; 

  
 32 








 (d) the Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has
failed to institute any such proceeding; and 
 (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during
such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of that series; 
 it
being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other of such Holders,
or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all of such Holders. 

Section 6.08. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest. Notwithstanding any
other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Notes shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on such Notes on the Interest Payment Date, Stated
Maturity or Maturities, as applicable, expressed in such Notes (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Holder. 
 Section 6.09. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder has instituted
any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any
determination in such proceeding, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as
though no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 Section 6.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. Except as
otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes in Section 2.07, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended
to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy. 

Section 6.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any Notes
to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this
Article VI or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be. 

  
 33 








 Section 6.12. Control by Holders. 

The Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of either series shall 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 Notes of such series, provided that: 

(a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture, 

(b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which is not inconsistent with such direction, and 

(c) subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such
direction if the Trustee in good faith shall, by a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee, determine that the proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability, for which the security or indemnity offered pursuant to
Section 7.02(d) would not be sufficient. 
 Section 6.13. Waiver of Past
Defaults. 
 (a) Subject to Section 6.02, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
outstanding Notes of either series may, by notice to the Trustee waive an existing or past default with respect to the Notes of such series and its consequences, except a default: 

(1) in the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note of such series, or in the deposit of any
sinking fund payment when and as due, or 
 (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under
Article IX cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note of such series affected. 

(3) Upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have
been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon. 

Section 6.14. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Notes by
acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses,
against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 6.14 shall not apply to any suit instituted
by the Company. 

  
 34 








 Section 6.15. Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws. The Company
covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter
in force, which may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law and covenants that it will not hinder, delay
or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted. 

ARTICLE VII 
 THE
TRUSTEE 
 Section 7.01. General. 

(a) The duties and responsibilities of the Trustee are as provided by the Trust Indenture Act and as set forth herein. Whether or not expressly
so provided, every provision of the Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee is subject to this Article VII. 

(b) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default, 

(1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no
implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and 
 (2) in the absence of bad
faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to
the requirements of this Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts, statements, opinions or conclusions stated therein). 

(c) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs. 

(d) No provision of the Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that 
 (1) this Subsection (d) shall not be construed to limit the
effect of Subsection (b) of this Section; 
 (2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good
faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and 

  
 35 








 (3) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted
to be taken by it with respect to a series of Notes in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes of such series, determined as provided herein, relating to the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture with respect to the Notes. 

(e) In order to comply with applicable tax laws, rules and regulations (inclusive of directives, guidelines and interpretations promulgated by
competent authorities) in effect from time to time (“Applicable Law”) that a foreign financial institution, issuer, trustee, paying agent, holder or other institution is or has agreed to be subject to related to the Indenture or the
Notes, the Company agrees (i) to provide to the Trustee sufficient information about holders or other applicable parties and/or transactions (including any modification to the terms of such transactions) so the Trustee can determine whether it
has tax-related obligations under Applicable Law, (ii) that the Trustee shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction from payments under the Indenture to the extent necessary to comply with
Applicable Law for which the Trustee shall not have any liability, and (iii) to hold harmless the Trustee for any losses it may suffer due to the actions it takes to comply with such Applicable Law. The terms of this
Section 7.01 shall survive the termination of this Indenture. 
 Section 7.02.
Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to Trust Indenture Act Section 315(a) through (d): 
 (a) In the absence of bad faith on its
part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting, upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other
evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper Person. The Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document, but, in the case of any document
which is specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee pursuant to any provision hereof, the Trustee shall examine the document to determine whether it conforms to the requirements of the Indenture (but need not confirm or investigate the
accuracy of mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein). The Trustee, in its discretion, may make further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it sees fit. 

(b) Before the Trustee acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel conforming to
Sections 10.03 and 10.04, and the Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on the certificate or opinion. 

(c) The Trustee may act through its attorneys and agents and shall not be responsible for the misconduct or negligence of any agent appointed
with due care. 
 (d) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by the Indenture at the
request or direction of any of the Holders of Notes, unless such Holders have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such
request or direction. 

  
 36 








 (e) The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith that
it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers or for any action it takes or omits to take in accordance with the direction of the Holders of the Notes in accordance with Section 6.12 relating to the time,
method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture. 

(f) The Trustee may consult with counsel, and the advice of such counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and
protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon. 
 (g) No provision of
this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of its rights or powers, unless it receives indemnity satisfactory to
it against any loss, liability or expense. 
 (h) The Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any default or Event of Default unless
written notice of any event which is in fact such a default or Event of Default is received by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 

(i) The rights, privileges, protections, immunities and benefits given to the Trustee, including, without limitation, its rights to be
indemnified, are extended to, and shall be enforceable by, the Trustee in each of its capacities hereunder, and each agent, custodian and other Person employed to act hereunder. 

(j) The Trustee may request that the Company deliver a certificate setting forth the names of individuals and/or titles of Officers authorized
at such time to take specified actions pursuant to this Indenture, which certificate may be signed by any Person authorized to sign an Officer’s Certificate, including any Person specified as so authorized in any such certificate previously
delivered and not superseded. 
 (k) In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for punitive, special, indirect, or consequential
loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, loss of profit) irrespective of whether the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action 

Section 7.03. Individual Rights of Trustee. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become
the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not the Trustee. Any Agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Trustee is subject to the Trust Indenture
Act Section 311. For purposes of the Trust Indenture Act Sections 311(b)(4) and (6): 

  
 37 








 (a) “cash transaction” means any transaction in which full payment for goods or
securities sold is made within seven days after delivery of the goods or securities in currency or in checks or other orders drawn upon banks or bankers and payable upon demand; and 

(b) “self-liquidating paper” means any draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation
which is made, drawn, negotiated or incurred by the Company for the purpose of financing the purchase, processing, manufacturing, shipment, storage or sale of goods, wares or merchandise and which is secured by documents evidencing title to,
possession of, or a lien upon, the goods, wares or merchandise or the receivables or proceeds arising from the sale of the goods, wares or merchandise previously constituting the security, provided the security is received by the Trustee
simultaneously with the creation of the creditor relationship arising from the making, drawing, negotiating or incurring of the draft, bill of exchange, acceptance or obligation. 

Section 7.04. Trustee’s Disclaimer. The Trustee (i) makes no representation as to the
validity, sufficiency or adequacy of the Indenture or the Notes, (ii) is not accountable for the Company’s use or application of the proceeds from the Notes and (iii) is not responsible for any statement in the Notes other than its
certificate of authentication. The Trustee shall not be responsible to make any calculation with respect to any matter under this Indenture. The Trustee shall have no duty to monitor or investigate the Company’s compliance with or the breach
of, or cause to be performed or observed, any representation, warranty, or covenant, or agreement of any Person, other than the Trustee, made in this Indenture. 

Section 7.05. Notice of Default. If any Default or Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to
the Notes, and if it is known to the Trustee, the Trustee shall send notice of the uncured Default to each Holder of the Notes within 90 days after it occurs, unless the Default has been cured; provided that, except in the case of a default
in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on any such Note, the Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a trust committee of Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith
determines that withholding the notice is in the interest of the Holders. Notice to Holders under this Section 7.05 shall be given in the manner and to the extent provided in Trust Indenture Act Section 313(c). Except
in the case of an Event of Default resulting from nonpayment on any Note, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless a written notice of any event which is in fact such a Default is received by the
Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture. 

Section 7.06. Reports by Trustee to Holders. Within 60 days after each May 15, beginning with the first
May 15 following the date of this Indenture, the Trustee shall transmit to each Holder such reports concerning, among other things, the Trustee and its action under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the
time and in compliance with Section 313(a) of the Trust Indenture Act. The Trustee also shall comply with Sections 313(b)(2) and 313(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. A copy of each such report at the time of its mailing to Noteholders shall
be filed with the Commission and each stock exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed. The Company shall notify the Trustee if the Notes become listed on any stock exchange and any delisting thereof. 

  
 38 








 Section 7.07. Compensation and Indemnity. 

(a) The Company shall pay the Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed upon in writing for its services. The compensation
of the Trustee is not limited by any law on compensation of a Trustee of an express trust. The Company shall reimburse the Trustee upon request for all reasonable documented
out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee while acting as Trustee under this Indenture, including the reasonable compensation
and expenses of the Trustee’s agents and counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its employ, except any such expense as shall have been attributable to its own negligence or willful misconduct. 

(b) The Company shall indemnify the Trustee for, and hold it harmless against, any and all loss or liability or expense or damage or claim
(including the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel and taxes other than those based upon the income of the Trustee) incurred by it without negligence or willful misconduct on its part arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or
administration of this Indenture and its duties under this Indenture and the Notes, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim (whether asserted by the Company, any Holder or any Person) or liability and of complying with
any process served upon it or any of its officers in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under the Indenture and the Notes. When the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services after an Event of Default
specified in Sections 6.01(d) and 6.01(e) occurs, the expenses and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy law. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action it
takes or omits to take hereunder in good faith that it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers, provided that the Trustee’s conduct does not constitute negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of the
Company under this Section 7.07 shall not be subordinated to the payment of Senior Indebtedness and shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. To
secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except money or
property held in trust to pay principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on particular Notes. 
 (c)
The obligations of the Company under this Section 7.07 shall not be subordinated to the payment of Senior Indebtedness and shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture, the termination for any reason of this Indenture and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. To secure the Company’s payment obligations in this Section 7.07, the Trustee shall have a lien prior
to the Notes on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee, in its capacity as Trustee, except money or property held in trust to pay principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including Additional Interest, if any) on particular
Notes. “Trustee” for purposes of this Section 7.07 shall include any predecessor Trustee; provided, however, that the negligence or willful misconduct of any Trustee hereunder shall not affect the
rights of any other Trustee hereunder. 
 (d) Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or
delay in the performance of its obligations under this Indenture arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly, forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, 

  
 39 








 
work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities,
communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the Trustee shall use reasonable efforts which are consistent with accepted practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under
the circumstances. 
 Section 7.08. Replacement of Trustee. 

(a) (1) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving 30 days prior written notice to the Company. 

(2) The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (voting as a single class) may remove the
Trustee by written notice to the Company and the Trustee. 
 (3) If the Trustee is no longer eligible under
Section 7.10 or in the circumstances described in Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b), any Holder that satisfies the requirements of Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b) may petition any court of competent
jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (4) The Company may remove the
Trustee if: (i) the Trustee is no longer eligible under Section 7.10; (ii) the Trustee is adjudged a bankrupt or an insolvent; (iii) a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Trustee or its property;
or (iv) the Trustee becomes incapable of acting. 
 (b) A resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee
shall become effective only upon the successor Trustee’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 7.08. 

(c) If the Trustee has been removed by the Holders, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes (voting as a single
class) may appoint a successor Trustee with the consent of the Company. Otherwise, if the Trustee resigns or is removed, or if a vacancy exists in the office of Trustee for any reason, the Company shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If the
successor Trustee does not deliver its written acceptance within 30 days after the retiring Trustee resigns or is removed, the retiring Trustee, the Company or the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes (voting
as a single class) may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 
 (d) Upon delivery by the
successor Trustee of a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Trustee and to the Company, (i) the retiring Trustee, upon payment of its charges and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, shall transfer all property held by it
as Trustee to the successor Trustee, subject to the lien provided for in Section 7.07, (ii) the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective, and (iii) the successor Trustee shall have all the
rights, powers and duties of the Trustee under the Indenture. Upon request of any successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments for fully and vesting in and confirming to the successor Trustee all such rights, powers and
trusts. The successor Trustee shall mail notice of any resignation and any removal of the Trustee and its appointment to all Holders, and include in the notice its name and the address of its Corporate Trust Office. 

  
 40 








 (e) Notwithstanding replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this
Section 7.08, the Company’s obligations under Section 7.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee. 

(f) The Trustee agrees to give the notices provided for in, and otherwise comply with, Trust Indenture Act Section 310(b).

ARTICLE VIII 

DEFEASANCE AND DISCHARGE 

Section 8.01. Discharge of Company’s Obligations. 

(a) This Indenture shall upon Company Request cease to be of further effect with respect to either series of Notes (except as to any surviving
rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes of such series herein expressly provided for), and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture as
to such series, when: 
 (1) either 

(i) all Notes of such series theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (A) Notes of such series which have been
destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 2.07 and (B) Notes of such series for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by
the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 4.03) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or 

  
 41 








 (ii) all such Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for
cancellation 
 (A) have become due and payable, or 

(B) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or 

(C) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of
redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the Company, 
 and the Company, in the case of (A), (B) or (C) above, has
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the Notes of such series not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for
principal (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Notes which have become due and payable) or to the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be; 

(2) the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company; and 

(3) the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the relevant series of Notes have been complied with. 

(b) Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to the Trustee under
Section 7.07, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent under Section 2.03 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (B) of clause
(1) of this Section 8.01, the obligations of the Trustee under this Section 8.01 and the last paragraph of Section 4.03 shall survive such satisfaction and discharge.

 (c) Subject to provisions of the last paragraph of Section 4.03, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant
to this Section 8.01 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as
its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee. 

Section 8.02. Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance The Company may at its option, at any time,
with respect to the Notes of either series, elect to have either Section 8.03 or Section 8.04 be applied to the outstanding Notes of such series upon compliance with the conditions set forth below
in this Article VIII. Any such election shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution or an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to a Board Resolution. 

  
 42 








 Section 8.03. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s
exercise of its option to have this Section 8.03 applied to any Notes or either series of Notes, as the case may be, the Company shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to such Notes as
provided in this Section 8.03, on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.05 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Defeasance
means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by such Notes and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Notes and this Indenture insofar as such Notes are concerned (and the
Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: 

(a) the rights of Holders of such Notes to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 8.05 and as more
fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of and any premium and interest on such Notes when payments are due, 

(b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Notes under Section 2.05,
Section 2.06, Section 2.07, Section 2.08, Section 2.09, Section 4.02 and Section 4.03, 

(c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder, and 

(d) this Article VIII. 

Subject to compliance with this Article VIII, the Company may exercise its option to have this
Section 8.03 applied to such Notes notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option to have Section 8.04 applied to such Notes. 

Section 8.04. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise of its option to have this
Section 8.04 applied to any Notes or either series of Notes, as the case may be: 
 (a) the Company shall be
released from its obligations under Section 5.01(c), Section 4.05 and any covenants provided pursuant to Section 9.01(b) for the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, and

 (b) the occurrence of any event specified in Section 6.01(c) (with respect to any of
Section 5.01(c), Section 4.05 and any such covenants provided pursuant to Section 9.01(b)) shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with
respect to such Notes as provided in this Section 8.04 on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 8.05 are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For
this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to such Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so
specified in the case of Section 6.01(c)), whether directly or indirectly by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section, Clause or Article or by reason of any reference in any such Section, Clause or
Article to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of this Indenture and such Notes shall be unaffected thereby. Following a Covenant Defeasance, payment of the Notes of such series may not be accelerated because of or
by reference to the Sections specified above in this Section 8.04. 

  
 43 








 Section 8.05. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance.

 The following shall be the conditions precedent to application of either Section 8.03 or
Section 8.04 to the outstanding Notes of either series: 
 (1) the Company shall irrevocably have
deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 7.10 who shall agree to comply with the provisions of this Article VIII applicable to
it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Notes, 

(i) money in an amount, or 

(ii) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance
with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or 
 (iii) a
combination thereof, 
 sufficient, without reinvestment, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants
expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee (in case U.S. Government Obligations have so been deposited), to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge,
(i) the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the outstanding Notes of such series to maturity or redemption, as the case may be, and (ii) any mandatory sinking fund payments or analogous payments applicable to the outstanding
Notes of such series on the due dates thereof. Before such a deposit the Company may make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the redemption of Notes at a future date or dates in accordance with Article III, which
shall be given effect in applying the foregoing. For this purpose, “U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America for the payment of which its full faith and credit is
pledged or (y) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United
States of America, which, in either case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act) as custodian with
respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, provided that (except as
required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment
of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government Obligation evidenced by such depositary receipt. 

  
 44 








 (2) In the event of an election to have Section 8.03
apply to any Notes or either series of Notes, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service
a ruling or (B) since the date of this instrument, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case (A) or (B) to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of such Notes
will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to such Notes 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, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur. 
 (3) In the event of an
election to have Section 8.04 apply to any Notes or either series of Notes, as the case may be, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of such Notes 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 Notes 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. 
 (4) The Company shall have delivered
to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate to the effect that neither such Notes or any other Notes of the same series, if then listed on any securities exchange, will be delisted as a result of such deposit. 

(5) No Event of Default or event which with notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default with respect to
the Notes of such series shall have occurred and be continuing (A) on the date of such deposit or (B) insofar as subsection 6.01(d) and (e) are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the
90th day after the date of such deposit or, if longer, ending on the day following the expiration of the longest preference period applicable to the Company in respect of such deposit (it being understood that the condition in this clause
(B) is a condition subsequent and shall not be deemed satisfied until the expiration of such period). 
 (6) Such
Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not (A) cause the Trustee for the Notes of such series to have a conflicting interest for purposes of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any securities of the Company or (B) result in the trust
arising from such deposit to constitute, unless it is qualified as, a regulated investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. 

(7) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, this
Indenture or any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound. 

  
 45 








 (8) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate
and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the Defeasance under Section 8.03 or the Covenant Defeasance under Section 8.04 (as the case
may be) have been complied with. 
 Section 8.06. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to be Held in
Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. 
 (a) Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 4.03,
all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee—collectively, for purposes of this Section 8.06, the “Trustee”)
pursuant to Section 8.05 in respect of the outstanding Notes of such series shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either
directly or through any Paying Agent (but not including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such Notes, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal (and premium, if any)
and interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. 
 (b) The Company shall pay and
indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the money or U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 8.05 or the principal and interest received in respect
thereof. 
 (c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon
Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 8.05 which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification
thereof delivered to the Trustee (in case U.S. Government Obligations are so being held by the Trustee), are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect an equivalent Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. 

Section 8.07. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent, with respect to either series of Notes, is
unable to apply any money in accordance with Section 8.03 or Section 8.04 by reason of any order or judgment or any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting
such application, then the Company’s obligations under the Notes of such series shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article VIII until such time as the Trustee or Paying
Agent is permitted to apply all such money in accordance with Section 8.03 or Section 8.04; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of (and premium, if
any) the Notes following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights of the Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent. 

Section 8.08. Qualifying Trustee. Any trustee appointed pursuant to Section 8.05 for the purpose of
holding trust funds deposited pursuant to that Section shall be appointed under a written agreement not inconsistent with the provisions of this Indenture, and the Company shall provide to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of
Counsel, upon which certificate and opinion the Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely, that all conditions precedent provided for herein to the related Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance have been complied with. In no event shall the Trustee
be liable for any acts or omissions of said trustee.

expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event, at his address as it appears in the Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier
than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the
sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders. Where this 

  
 49 








 
Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the
equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such waiver. In case by reason of the suspension of
regular mail service or by reason of any other cause it shall be impracticable to give such notice by mail, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee shall constitute a sufficient notification for every purpose
hereunder. 
 (b) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Holders or other document provided or
permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed with,

for subsequent notices or communications. 
 (d) Except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to published notices, any notice or
communication to a Holder shall be deemed given when mailed to the Holder at its last address as it appears on the Register by first class mail or, as to any Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee, as agreed by the Company, the
Trustee and DTC. Copies of any notice or communication to a Holder, if given by the Company, shall be mailed to the Trustee at the same time. Defect in mailing a notice or communication to any particular Holder shall not affect its sufficiency with
respect to other Holders. 
 (e) Where the Indenture provides for notice, the notice may be waived in writing by the Person entitled to
receive such notice, either before or after the event, and the waiver shall be the equivalent of the notice. Waivers of notice by Holders must be filed with the Trustee, but such filing is not a condition precedent to the validity of any action
taken in reliance upon such waivers.

notices, instructions, directions or other communications sent by e-mail, facsimile and other similar unsecured electronic methods by persons believed by the Trustee to be authorized to give instructions and
directions on behalf of the Company. The Trustee shall have no duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the person who sent such instructions or directions is, in fact, a person authorized to give instructions or directions on behalf of the
Company; and the Trustee shall have no liability for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses incurred or sustained by the Company as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such notices, instructions, directions or other communications.
The Company agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic methods to submit notices, instructions, directions or other communications to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized
instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties. The Company shall use all reasonable endeavors to ensure that any such notices, instructions, directions or other communications transmitted to the Trustee pursuant to this
Indenture are complete and correct. Any such notices, instructions, directions or other communications shall be conclusively deemed to be valid instructions from the Company to the Trustee for the purposes of this Indenture. 

Section 10.03. Certificate and Opinion as to Conditions Precedent. Upon any application or request by the
Company to the Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee such certificates and opinions as may be required under the Trust Indenture Act. Each such certificate or opinion shall be

need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date, and no interest shall accrue for the intervening period. 

Section 10.06. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury. This Indenture and the
Notes shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its principles of conflicts of laws.

[•]% Senior Notes due 204[•] 

PRUDENTIAL FINANCIAL, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of New Jersey (herein called the
“Company”, which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of
$[                ] on December 7, 204[•], unless earlier redeemed as herein provided, and to pay interest thereon from June 7,
204[•] or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually on June 7 and December 7 in each year, commencing June 7, 2018
at the rate of [•]% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the
Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on each May 23 and November 22 (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, as applicable. All terms used
in this Global Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 This Note is a Global
Note representing the Company’s [•]% Senior Notes due 204[•] in the aggregate principal amount of
$[                ] (herein called the “Notes”), issued under an Indenture dated as of December 7, 2017 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and
The Bank of New York Mellon Trust, a New York banking corporation (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the Notes represented hereby), to which Indenture and any
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes
are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes are issuable only in fully registered form in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereafter. 

The amount of interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Note is not a Business Day, then payment of interest
payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date. 

Any such interest not punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder hereof on such Regular Record Date
and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such interest, to be fixed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.12 of the
Indenture, which shall be set not more than 15 calendar days and not less than 10 calendar days prior to the date set by the Company for payment of such defaulted interest and not less than 10 calendar days after receipt by the Trustee of notice
from the Company of the proposed payment of Defaulted Interest, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes of this series may be listed, and upon such notice
as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. 

  
 Exh. A-6 








 Payment of the principal of and any interest on this Note will be made at the office or agency of
the Company maintained for that purpose 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 and in immediately available funds; provided, however,
that at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account of the Person entitled thereto as such account shall be provided to the Registrar and shall appear in the
Register and all payments of principal may be paid by official bank check to the Holder or other Person entitled thereto against surrender of such Note. 

The Notes may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time, prior to the applicable Par Call Date, upon not less than 30
days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, at a Redemption Price equal to (i) the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (b) as determined by the Company, the sum of the present values
of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed, not including any portion of these payments of interest accrued as of the date on which the Notes are to be redeemed up to the applicable Par Call Date (as
set forth in the table in Section 3.01 of the Indenture), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30 day months) and
assuming a Designated CMT Maturity, at the CMT Rate (as determined in accordance with the Indenture) in effect on the date of the Company’s determination of the Redemption Price, plus a number of basis points equal to the applicable Make-Whole Spread (as set forth in the table in Section 3.01 of the Indenture), plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Redemption Date. The Notes may be redeemed at
any time on or after the applicable Par Call Date, in whole or in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed. Accrued and unpaid interest will be payable to but excluding the Redemption Date. If
the Company chooses to exercise its right to redeem the Notes, it must give the Holder not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice. 

The Company and the Trustee will send notices regarding the Notes only to the Holders, using the procedures of the applicable depositary, in
the case of Global Notes, and otherwise to their addresses as listed in the Trustee’s records. 
 The indebtedness evidenced by this
Note is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, senior and unsecured and will rank equal in right of payment to all other existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company. 

The Notes are initially limited to $[                ]
aggregate principal amount. The Indenture provides that the Company may, without the consent of the Holders hereof, create and issue Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Notes of this series in all respects and so that such Additional Notes
shall be consolidated and form a single series having the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Notes initially issued. No Additional Notes may be issued if an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, has occurred, and has
not been cured or waived. Any Additional Notes that are consolidated and form a single series with the Notes will be issued for U.S. federal income tax purposes in a “qualified reopening” or with no more than a de minimis amount of
original issue discount. 

  
 Exh. A-7 








 The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company to, among other things,
merge or consolidate with any other Person, and requires that the Company comply with certain further covenants, all of which are applicable to this Note. All such covenants and limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and
exceptions. The Company must report periodically to the Trustee on compliance with the covenants in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains
provisions for the defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Note and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related Defaults and Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain
conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Note. Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) failure to pay interest (including Additional Interest, if any) when due, if the failure continues for 30 days;
(ii) failure to pay the principal or premium, if any, when due; (iii) failure to observe or perform any other covenant contained in the Notes or the Indenture, if the failure continues for 90 days after the Company receives notice from the
Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and (iv) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company. 

If an Event of Default with respect to this Global Note shall occur and be continuing, the principal hereof may be declared due and payable in
the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains provisions permitting, with certain exceptions therein
provided, the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of, among other things, adding any provisions to or
changing or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying the rights of the Holders of the Notes. 

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, on behalf
of all of the Holders of all Notes, to waive a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences, except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest (including Additional
Interest, if any) on any of the Notes or in respect of a covenant or other provision which, under the terms of the Indenture, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note. Any such consent or waiver by the
registered Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange for or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of
whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal
of or the interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as


  
 Exh. A-8 








 
such, of the Company or of any 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, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Global Note or the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the amount of principal of and interest on this Global Note herein provided, and at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Global Note is registrable in the
Register, upon surrender of this Global Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and interest on this Global Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Global Note of this series for the same aggregate principal amount will
be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. The Trustee initially shall be the Registrar and the Paying Agent for the Notes. 

No service charge shall be made 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 Global Note 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 Global Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Global Note be overdue, and neither the
Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 In the event that (i) the Depositary notifies
the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Note or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, a successor depositary is
not appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice or after the Company becomes aware of such event, (ii) the Company, in its sole discretion, notifies the Trustee in a Company Order that the Notes should no longer be represented by
Global Notes, and it elects to cause the issuance of Definitive Notes under this Indenture or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver Notes of this series
in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Global Note at the time outstanding in exchange for this Global Note. 

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York. 

  
 Exh. A-9

signature, this Global Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

at the rate of [•]% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the
Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on each May 23 and November 22 (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, as applicable. All terms used
in this Global Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 This Note is a Global
Note representing the Company’s [•]% Senior Notes due 204[•] in the aggregate principal amount of
$[                ] (herein called the “Notes”), issued under an Indenture dated as of December 7, 2017 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and
The Bank of New York Mellon Trust, a New York banking corporation (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the Notes represented hereby), to which Indenture and any
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes
are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes are issuable only in fully registered form in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereafter. 

The amount of interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall be computed on the basis of a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Note is not a Business Day, then payment of interest
payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date. 

Any such interest not punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder hereof on such Regular Record Date
and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such interest, to be fixed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.12 of the
Indenture, which shall be set not more than 15 calendar days and not less than 10 calendar days prior to the date set by the Company for payment of such defaulted interest and not less than 10 calendar days after receipt by the Trustee of notice
from the Company of the proposed payment of Defaulted Interest, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes of this series may be listed, and upon such notice
as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. 

  
 Exh. B-5 








 Payment of the principal of and any interest on this Note will be made at the office or agency of
the Company maintained for that purpose 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 and in immediately available funds; provided, however,
that at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check or by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account of the Person entitled thereto as such account shall be provided to the Registrar and shall appear in the
Register and all payments of principal may be paid by official bank check to the Holder or other Person entitled thereto against surrender of such Note. 

The Notes may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time, prior to the applicable Par Call Date, upon not less than 30
days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice, at a Redemption Price equal to (i) the greater of (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (b) as determined by the Company, the sum of the present values
of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed, not including any portion of these payments of interest accrued as of the date on which the Notes are to be redeemed up to the applicable Par Call Date (as
set forth in the table in Section 3.01 of the Indenture), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360 day year consisting of twelve 30 day months) and
assuming a Designated CMT Maturity, at the CMT Rate (as determined in accordance with the Indenture) in effect on the date of the Company’s determination of the Redemption Price, plus a number of basis points equal to the applicable Make-Whole Spread (as set forth in the table in Section 3.01 of the Indenture), plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Redemption Date. The Notes may be redeemed at
any time on or after the applicable Par Call Date, in whole or in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed. Accrued and unpaid interest will be payable to but excluding the Redemption Date. If
the Company chooses to exercise its right to redeem the Notes, it must give the Holder not less than 30 days’ nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice. 

The Company and the Trustee will send notices regarding the Notes only to the Holders, using the procedures of the applicable depositary, in
the case of Global Notes, and otherwise to their addresses as listed in the Trustee’s records. 
 The indebtedness evidenced by this
Note is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, senior and unsecured and will rank equal in right of payment to all other existing and future senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company. 

The Notes are initially limited to $[                ]
aggregate principal amount. The Indenture provides that the Company may, without the consent of the Holders hereof, create and issue Additional Notes ranking pari passu with the Notes of this series in all respects and so that such Additional Notes
shall be consolidated and form a single series having the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Notes initially issued. No Additional Notes may be issued if an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, has occurred, and has
not been cured or waived. Any Additional Notes that are consolidated and form a single series with the Notes will be issued for U.S. federal income tax purposes in a “qualified reopening” or with no more than a de minimis amount of
original issue discount.

 The Indenture imposes certain limitations on the ability of the Company to, among other things,
merge or consolidate with any other Person, and requires that the Company comply with certain further covenants, all of which are applicable to this Note. All such covenants and limitations are subject to a number of important qualifications and
exceptions. The Company must report periodically to the Trustee on compliance with the covenants in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains
provisions for the defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Note and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related Defaults and Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain
conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Note. Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) failure to pay interest when due, if the failure continues for 30 days; (ii) failure to pay the principal or premium, if
any, when due; (iii) failure to observe or perform any other covenant contained in the Notes or the Indenture, if the failure continues for 90 days after the Company receives notice from the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and (iv) certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Company. 

If an Event of Default with respect to this Global Note shall occur and be continuing, the principal hereof may be declared due and payable in
the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains provisions permitting, with certain exceptions therein
provided, the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of, among other things, adding any provisions to or
changing or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying the rights of the Holders of the Notes. 

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes, on behalf
of all of the Holders of all Notes, to waive a Default or Event of Default with respect to the Notes and its consequences, except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes or
in respect of a covenant or other provision which, under the terms of the Indenture, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding Note. Any such consent or waiver by the registered Holder of this Note shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange for or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this Note, or
for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of the Company or of any 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, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof,
expressly waived and released.
