This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in
one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of September 28, 2007 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any
successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture, including the Officer’s Certificate, dated as of September 30, 2010, delivered pursuant to Sections 2.1, 2.4(3) and 10.5 of the Indenture and setting
forth additional terms of this Note, for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount up to and including $350,000,000. 

At any time prior to April 1, 2041, the Issuer may redeem this Note in whole or in part, at its option, at a redemption price equal
to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of
redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus, as applicable, 35 basis points, plus accrued interest on the principal
amount being redeemed to the redemption date. 
 At any time on or after April 1, 2041, the Issuer may also redeem this
Note in whole or in part at 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the redemption date. 

The Issuer will mail notice of any redemption at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of
Notes to be redeemed. 
 Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date
interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. 
 “Comparable Treasury Issue”
means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker (as defined below) as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes being redeemed that would be utilized,
at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes. 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations (as defined below) for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of
all such quotations. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers (as defined below)
appointed by the Trustee after consultation with the Issuer. 







 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of Barclays Capital Inc., Citigroup Global
Markets Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and RBS Securities Inc., their respective successors, and two other primary U.S. Government securities dealers in The City of New York (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), selected by the Issuer. If
any Reference Treasury Dealer shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Issuer will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer for that dealer. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the
average, as determined by the trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m. New
York time on the third business day preceding such redemption date. 
 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any
redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolated (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its
principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date. 
 The Indenture contains provisions for
defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Note or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Note, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes of this series may
be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain
exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in
principal amount of the Notes of each series at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, to waive compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and
their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange
herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 As provided in and
subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such
Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes of this series at the time outstanding shall
have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable 







 
indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes of this series at the time outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request,
and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of
principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 
 No reference herein
to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note 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 Note is registrable in the security register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Issuer in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this
Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed, by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new
Notes of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple
thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination,
as requested in writing by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the issuer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
