transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 15 days and no later than 60 days from the date such

outstanding after repurchase must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful:

party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and the third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the
Issuer shall not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the Notes, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control

Notes, the Issuer shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

other property thereafter acquired or constructed other than additions to such acquired or constructed property and other than property on which property so constructed is located; and provided, further, that if a firm commitment from

clause (i) whether or not created or assumed within such period; 
 (ii) any mortgage, pledge or
other lien or encumbrance created for the sole purpose of extending, renewing or refunding any mortgage, pledge, lien or encumbrance permitted by clause (i) of this subsection (a); provided,
however, that the principal amount of indebtedness secured thereby shall not exceed the principal amount of indebtedness so secured at the time of such extension, renewal or refunding and that such extension, renewal or refunding mortgage,
pledge, lien or encumbrance shall be limited to all or any part of the same property that secured the mortgage, pledge or other lien or encumbrance extended, renewed or refunded;

impair the use by the Issuer or a Subsidiary of the affected property in the operation of the business of the Issuer or a Subsidiary, or the value of such property for the purposes of such business; 

(iv) any contracts for production, research or development with or for the Government, directly or indirectly, providing for

Issuer or a Subsidiary primarily for the purpose of manufacturing or producing any product or performing any development work, directly or indirectly, for the Government to secure indebtedness incurred and owing to the Government for the
construction, installation or purchase of such equipment, tools, machinery, land or buildings. For the purpose of this clause (iv), “Government” shall mean the Government of the United States of America and

property, and created prior to, contemporaneously with or within 360 days after, such construction or improvement; provided, that if a firm commitment from a bank, insurance company or other lender or investor (not including the Issuer, a Subsidiary
or an Affiliate of the Issuer) for the financing of the acquisition or construction of property is made prior to, contemporaneously with or within the 360-day period hereinabove referred to, the applicable

period (not exceeding 36 months) with the intent that the use by the Issuer or such Subsidiary of such property will be discontinued at or before the expiration of such period, unless either: 

(i) the sum of the aggregate sale price of property involved in sale and leaseback transactions not otherwise permitted
pursuant to this Section 7.1(b) plus the aggregate amount of indebtedness secured by all mortgages, pledges, liens and encumbrances not otherwise permitted except under Section 7.1(a)(vii) does not
exceed 15% of Consolidated Stockholders’ Equity; or 
 (ii) the Issuer within 120 days after the sale or transfer shall
have been made by the Issuer or by any such Subsidiary applies an amount equal to the greater of (A) the net proceeds of the sale of the Principal Facility sold and leased back pursuant to such arrangement or (B) the fair market value of
the Principal Facility sold and leased back at the time of entering into such arrangement (which may be conclusively determined by the Board of Directors of the Issuer) to the retirement of Securities or other Funded Debt of the Issuer ranking on a
parity with the Securities; provided, that the amount required to be applied to the retirement of Outstanding Securities or other Funded Debt of the Issuer pursuant to this subclause (B) shall be reduced by (1) the
principal amount (or, if the Securities of that series are Discount Securities, such portion of the principal amount as may be specified in the terms of that series) of any Securities delivered within 120 days after such sale to the Trustee for
retirement and cancellation, and (2) the principal amount of any other Funded Debt of the Issuer ranking on a parity with the Securities voluntarily retired by the Issuer within 120 days after such sale. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no

any successor provision, the Issuer will deliver to the Trustee the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which the Issuer is required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) or any successor provision,

regulations. 
 (ii) Reports and other documents filed by the Issuer with the Commission and publicly available via the EDGAR
system or on the Issuer’s website will be deemed to be delivered to the Trustee as of the time such filing is publicly available via EDGAR or on the Issuer’s website for purposes of this covenant; provided, however, that the Trustee
shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information, documents or reports have been filed or are publicly available via EDGAR or on the Issuer’s website. 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 Issuer’s
compliance with any of its covenants relating to the Notes (as to which the Trustee is entitled to rely exclusively on an Officers’ Certificate).

 EQUIFAX INC. 

2.600% Senior Notes due 2024 

Equifax Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Issuer,” which term includes any successor under the Original Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or its registered assigns, the principal sum of [●] Dollars on December 1, 2024 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon from
November 19, 2019 (or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for) in U.S. dollars semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 of each year, each, an “Interest Payment
Date”, commencing on June 1, 2020, and on the Maturity Date, at the rate of 2.600% per annum, until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly provided for. 

The interest so payable and punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date and on the Maturity Date will be paid to the
Holder in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the “Record Date” for such payment, which will be May 15 and November 15 (regardless of whether such day is a Business
Day (as defined below)). Any interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such record date, and shall be paid to the Holder in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is
registered at the close of business on a subsequent record date for the payment of such defaulted interest (which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the payment of such defaulted interest) established by
notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer to the Holders of the Notes not less than 10 days preceding such subsequent record date. Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year
of twelve 30-day months. 
 The principal of this Note payable on the Maturity Date will be paid
against presentation and surrender of this Note at the office or agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in The Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Issuer hereby initially designates U.S. Bank Global Corporate Trust Services
– New York, 100 Wall Street, Suite 1600, New York, NY 10005 as the office to be maintained by it where Notes may be presented for payment, registration of transfer, or exchange and where notices or demands to or upon the Issuer in respect of
the Notes or the Original Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof may be served. 
 Interest payable on this Note on any Interest
Payment Date and on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, will be the amount of interest accrued from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date (or from and including November 19, 2019, in the case of the initial Interest
Payment Date) to but excluding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), the required payment of
interest or principal or both, as the case may be, will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were made on the date such payment was due and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the
period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. “Business Day” means any calendar day, that is not a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday in New York, New York and on which commercial banks are open
for business in New York, New York. 

  
 A-2 













 Payments of principal and interest in respect of this Note will be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 

Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof. Such further provisions shall for all purposes have
the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

 [REVERSE OF NOTE] 

EQUIFAX INC. 
 2.600%
Senior Notes due 2024 
 This security is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes, bonds, or other evidences of indebtedness
of the Issuer (hereinafter called the “Securities”) of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of May 12, 2016 (hereinafter called the “Original
Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by the Issuer to U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee (hereinafter called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Original Indenture with
respect to the series of Securities of which this Note is a part), and a Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 19, 2019, between the Issuer and the Trustee (the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture;” the Original
Indenture as modified and supplemented by the Sixth Supplemental Indenture is herein called the “Indenture”) to which the Original Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto relating to this security reference is hereby made
for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer, and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Original Indenture. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts,
may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), and may otherwise vary as provided in the Original Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto. This
security is one of a series designated as the 2.600% Senior Notes due 2024 of the Issuer (the “Notes”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $750,000,000. 

In case an Event of Default with respect to this security shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof together with accrued
interest to the date of declaration, if any, may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect, and subject to the conditions provided in the Original Indenture. 

Except as otherwise may be specified herein or in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, prior to November 1, 2024, the Issuer shall have the
right to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, at a redemption price (the “Optional Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to,
but excluding, the Redemption Date, and (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments of principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual
basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the
principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 
 On or after November 1, 2024, the Issuer shall have the
right to redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, at the Issuer’s option, for an amount in cash equal to 100% of the principal amount plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being
redeemed to, but excluding the Redemption Date. 
 The Issuer will mail notice of such redemption to the registered holders of the Notes to
be redeemed not less than 15 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date. If Notes are only partially redeemed pursuant to the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected by the Trustee in such manner as in its
sole discretion it shall deem appropriate and fair; provided, that if at the 

  
 A-6 













 
time of redemption the Notes to be redeemed are registered as a Global Note, the Depository shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed
held by each of its participants that holds a position in such Notes. The Optional Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York time, on the Redemption Date or at such later time on such date as is then permitted by the rules of the
Depository for the Notes (if then registered as a Global Note); provided, that the Issuer shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the date such Optional
Redemption Price is to be paid. 
 If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Issuer has exercised its option to redeem the
Notes, the Issuer shall be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that
Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Issuer shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest,
if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to any Change of Control, but after
public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, the Issuer shall mail a notice to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering
Event and offering to repurchase such Securities on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be no earlier than 15 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The
notice shall, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. 

In order to accept the Change of Control Offer, the Holder must deliver to the Paying Agent, at least three Business Days prior to the Change
of Control Payment Date, this Security together with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” (which form is annexed hereto) duly completed, or a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a national
securities exchange, or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States setting forth: 

(i) the name of the Holder of the Note; 

(ii) the principal amount of the Note; 

(iii) the principal amount of the Note to be repurchased; 

(iv) the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of the Note; 

(v) a statement that the Holder is accepting the Change of Control Offer; and 

(vi) a guarantee that the Note, together with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” duly completed,
will be received by the Paying Agent at least three Business Days prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. 
 Any exercise by a Holder
of its election to accept the Change of Control Offer shall be irrevocable. The Change of Control Offer may be accepted for less than the entire principal amount of the Notes, but in that event the principal amount of the Notes remaining outstanding
after repurchase must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Issuer shall, to the extent lawful (1) accept for payment all Notes or portions of such Notes properly
tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount 

  
 A-7 













 
equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions of such Notes properly tendered, and (3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly
accepted together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions of such Notes being repurchased. 

The Issuer shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third
party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and the third party purchases all Notes of this series properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In
addition, the Issuer shall not repurchase any Notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the Notes, other than a default in the payment of the Change of
Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event. 
 The Issuer shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in
connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the
Issuer shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict. 

The following terms have the meanings given to them in this Note:
