statement of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which this Note is, and is to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms,
conditions and provisions of the Notes are those stated in the Indenture, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and those set forth in this Note. To the extent that the terms, conditions and
other provisions of this Note modify, supplement or are inconsistent with those of the Indenture, then the terms, conditions and other provisions of this Note shall govern. 
 All capitalized terms which are used but not defined in this Note shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 The Company may, without the consent of the Holders, issue additional Securities ranking equally with the Notes and otherwise identical in all respects
(except for their date of issue, issue price and the date from which interest payments thereon shall accrue) so that such additional Securities shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Notes; provided, however, that no
additional Securities of any existing or new series may be issued under the Indenture if an Event of Default has occurred and remains uncured thereunder. 
 2. Ranking. The Notes shall constitute the senior, unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of the Company and shall rank equally in right of payment among themselves and with all other existing and future senior, unsecured and
unsubordinated debt obligations of the Company. 
 3. Payment of Overdue Amounts. The Company shall pay interest, calculated on the basis of a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months, on overdue principal and overdue installments of interest, if any, from time to time on demand at the interest rate borne by the Notes to the extent lawful. 
 4. Payment of Additional Amounts; Redemption Upon a Tax Event. 
 (a) Payment of Additional Amounts. The Company shall pay to the Holder (including, for purposes of this Section 4, the beneficial owner) of this Note who is a Non-U.S. Person (as defined below) such additional amounts as may be
necessary so that every net payment of principal of and interest on this Note to such Holder, after deduction or withholding for or on 








 
account of any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed upon such Holder by the United States of America or any taxing
authority thereof or therein, will not be less than the amount provided in this Note to be then due and payable (such amounts, the “Additional Amounts”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any payment
of Additional Amounts for or on account of: 
 (i) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for
(A) the existence of any present or former connection between such Holder, or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary of, member or shareholder of, or possessor of a power over, such Holder, if such Holder is an estate, trust, partnership or
corporation, and the United States including, without limitation, such Holder, or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or possessor, being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States of America or treated as a
resident thereof or being or having been engaged in trade or business or present in the United States of America, or (B) the presentation of this Note for payment on a date more than 30 days after the later of (x) the date on which such
payment becomes due and payable and (y) the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for; 
 (ii) any estate, inheritance, gift,
sales, transfer, excise, personal property or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 
 (iii) any tax, assessment or other
governmental charge imposed by reason of such Holder’s past or present status as a passive foreign investment company, a controlled foreign corporation or a personal holding company with respect to the United States of America, or as a
corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 
 (iv) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge
which is payable otherwise than by withholding from payment of principal of or interest on this Note; 
 (v) any tax, assessment or other
governmental charge required to be withheld by any paying agent from any payment of principal of or interest on this Note if such payment can be made without withholding by any other paying agent; 
 (vi) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge which would not have been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification, information,
documentation or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connections with the United States of America of the Holder of this Note, if such compliance is required by statute or by regulation of the United
States Treasury Department as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 
 (vii) any tax,
assessment or other governmental charge imposed on interest received by (A) a 10% shareholder (as defined in Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations
that may be promulgated thereunder) of the Company or (B) a controlled foreign corporation with respect to the Company within the meaning of the Code; 
  

 2 








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

 “Non-U.S. Person” means any corporation, partnership, individual or fiduciary that is, as to the United States of America, a
foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual who has not made a valid election to be treated as a United States resident, a non-resident fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust, or a foreign partnership one or more of the members of which is,
as to the United States of America, a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual or a non-resident fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust. 
 (b)
Redemption Upon a Tax Event. The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Company in whole, but not in part, on a date (such date, the “Tax Redemption Date”) to be fixed by the Company on not more than 60 days’ and not less
than 30 days’ notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes (the “Redemption Price”) plus accrued but unpaid interest, if any, and any Additional Amounts thereon, if the Company determines that as a

Company will be required to pay such Additional Amounts.

the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company. 
 On or before the opening of business on any Tax
Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or with the Paying Agent or, if the Company is acting as its own paying agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 5.03 of the Indenture, an amount of money sufficient
to pay the Redemption Price of, and except if the Tax Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date, accrued but unpaid interest on, the Notes to be redeemed on the Tax Redemption Date. 
 The notice of redemption having been given as specified above, the Notes shall, on the Tax Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption
Price, and from and after such date, unless the Company shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued but unpaid interest, if any, the Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of the Notes for redemption in accordance
with such notice, the Notes shall be paid by the Company at the Redemption Price, together with accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to the Tax Redemption Date. 
 If the Notes, having been called for redemption, shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the Redemption Price shall, until paid, bear interest from the Tax Redemption Date at the interest rate
borne by this Note.

 5. Place and Method of Payment. The Company shall pay principal of and interest on the Notes at the office or
agency of the Paying Agent in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York; provided, however, that at the option of the Company, the Company may pay interest by check mailed to the person entitled thereto at such person’s address as
it appears on the Registry for the Notes. 
 6. Defeasance of the Notes. Sections 11.02, 11.03 and 11.04 of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes.

 7. No Redemption or Sinking Fund. The Notes are not redeemable prior to maturity, other than as set forth in Section 4(b) hereof, and are not
subject to a sinking fund. 
 8. Amendment and Modification. Article Nine of the Indenture contains provisions for the amendment or modification of
the Indenture and the Notes without the consent of the Holders in certain circumstances and requiring the consent of Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes and Securities of other series that would be affected
in certain other circumstances. However, the Indenture requires the consent of each Holder of the Notes and Securities of other series that would be affected for certain specified amendments or modifications of the Indenture and the Notes. These
provisions of the Indenture, which provide for, among other things, the execution of supplemental indentures, are applicable to the Notes. 
 9. Event of
Default; Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, then the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series may be declared by either the Trustee or
the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series then Outstanding to be, and, in certain cases, may automatically become, immediately due and payable in the manner, with the effect and subject to the
conditions provided in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that, in the event of such an acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all of the Notes of this series then Outstanding, voting
as a separate class, in accordance with the provisions of, and in the circumstances provided by, the Indenture, may rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences with respect to all of the Notes. 
 10. Absolute Obligation. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provisions of the Notes or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the place, at the time and in the coin or currency herein prescribed. 
 11. Form and Denominations; Global Notes; Definitive Notes. The Notes are being issued in registered form without interest coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Notes are being issued in the form of one or more global notes (each, a “Global Note”), evidencing all or any portion of the Notes and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee (including their respective successors) as Depositary
under the Indenture. The Notes shall be issued in certificated form (each, a “Definitive Note”) only in the following limited circumstances: (1) the Depositary is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary or ceases to
be a clearing agency registered under applicable law, and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such ineligibility; (2) the Company delivers to the
Trustee a Company Order to the effect that this Note shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes; or (3) an

Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes, in each such case this Note shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes in an equal
aggregate principal amount. Such Definitive Notes shall be registered in such name or names as the Depositary shall instruct the Trustee. 
 12.
Registration, Transfer and Exchange. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Company shall provide for the registration of the Notes and the transfer and exchange of the Notes, whether in global
or definitive form. At the option of the Holders, at any office or agency designated and maintained by the Company for such purpose (the “Transfer Agent”) pursuant to the provisions of the Indenture, and in the manner and subject to the
limitations provided in the Indenture, but without the payment of any service charge, except for any transfer tax or other governmental charges imposed in connection therewith subject to Section 4 hereof, the Notes may be transferred or
exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of the Notes of like tenor and of other authorized denominations upon surrender and cancellation of the Notes upon any such transfer. 
 The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or of the Trustee may deem and treat the Holder as the absolute owner of this Note (whether or not
the Notes shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payments hereon, or on account hereof, and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent
of the Company or of the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments made to or upon the order of such Holder shall, to the extent of the amount or amounts paid, effectually satisfy and discharge liability for moneys
payable on this Note. 
 Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section 12, any registration of transfer or exchange of a
Global Note shall be subject to the terms of the legend appearing on the initial page thereof. 
 13. No Recourse Against Others. No recourse under or
upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company arising under or set forth in the Notes or under the Indenture, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or
director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of
any assessment or penalty or otherwise, any and all such personal liability, either at common law or in equity or by constitution or statute, of, and any and all such rights and claims against, every such incorporator, stockholder, officer or
director, as such, being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

Indenture, then it shall do so by the means and in the manner set forth in Section 1.06 of the Indenture. 
 16. Separability. In case any
provision of the Indenture or the Notes shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof and hereof shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby. 
 17. GOVERNING LAW. THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
