 CUSIP No. [—] 
 PPL CAPITAL FUNDING, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the
laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture referred to below), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal
sum of [—] DOLLARS ($[—]) on the Stated Maturity specified above, and to pay interest on said principal sum from the Original Issue Date specified
above or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates specified above, commencing December 1, 2013 and at Maturity, at the Interest Rate
per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for. The interest so payable, and paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this
Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date specified above (whether or not a Business Day (as hereinafter defined)) next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, interest payable at Maturity shall be paid to the Person to whom principal shall be paid. Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, any such interest not so paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to
be fixed by the Trustee, notice of which shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed if deemed practicable by the Trustee, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. Interest on this Security shall be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, and with respect to any period less than a full calendar month, on the basis of actual days elapsed during such period. 

Payment of the principal of this Security and premium, if any, and interest hereon due at Maturity shall be made upon presentation of
this Security at the corporate trust office of The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, 






 
New York or at such other office or agency as may be designated for such purpose by the Company from time to time. Payment of interest, on this Security (other than interest due at Maturity)
shall be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register except that (a) if such Person shall be a securities depositary, such payment may be made by such other means in
lieu of check as shall be agreed upon by the Company, the Trustee or other Paying Agent and such Person and (b) if such Person is a Holder of $10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series such payment may be in
immediately available funds by wire transfer to such account as may have been designated in writing by the Person entitled thereto as set forth herein in time for the Paying Agent to make such payments in accordance with its normal procedures. Any
such designation for wire transfer purposes shall be made by filing the appropriate information with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office in The City of New York not less than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date and,
unless revoked by written notice to the Trustee received on or prior to the Regular Record Date immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date, shall remain in effect with respect to any further interest payments (other than interest
payments due at Maturity) with respect to this Security payable to such Holder. Payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this Security, as aforesaid, shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as
at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 
 This Security is one of a duly
authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and issuable in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of November 1, 1997 (such Indenture as originally executed and delivered and as
supplemented or amended from time to time thereafter, together with any constituent instruments establishing the terms of particular Securities, being herein called the “Indenture”), among the Company, PPL Corporation (herein called the
“Guarantor,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture) and The Bank of New York Mellon (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank)), as Trustee (herein called the
“Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture, all indentures supplemental thereto and the Officers’ Certificate filed with the Trustee on May 24, 2013, establishing certain terms
of the series designated on the face hereof (herein called the “Officers’ Certificate”) reference is hereby made for a description of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities of the Company, the Guarantor,
the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities thereunder and of the terms and conditions upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The acceptance of this Security shall be deemed to constitute the consent and
agreement by the Holder hereof to all of the terms and provisions of the Indenture. This Security is one of the series designated above. 
 If any Interest Payment Date, any Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity shall not be a Business Day, payment of the amounts due on this Security on such date shall be made on the next succeeding Business
Day, and, if such payment is made or duly provided for on such next succeeding Business Day, no interest shall accrue on such amounts for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be,
to such Business Day. 
 The Company may, at its option, redeem this Security, in whole at any time or in part from time to time
on or after July 1, 2015. If the Company redeems this Security on or after July 1, 2015 and before March 1, 2023 (the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity), this Security will be redeemed by the Company at a
Redemption Price equal to the greater of: 
 (1) 100% of the principal amount of this Security to be so redeemed; and

 (2) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and
interest on this Security to be so redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day
months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points; 
 plus, in either of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal
amount being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 
 If the Company redeems this Security on or after
March 1, 2023 (the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity), this Security will be redeemed by the Company at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Security to be so redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid
interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. 

  
 2 







 For purposes of calculating the Redemption Price, the following terms will have the meanings
set forth below: 
 “Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum
equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity 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 that Redemption
Date. 
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent
as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of this Security to the Stated Maturity 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 this Security. 
 “Comparable Treasury
Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date: 
 (1) the average of three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for
that Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations; or 
 (2) if the Quotation
Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all of those quotations received. 

“Quotation Agent” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means: 
 (1) each of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, respectively, and their respective successors, unless any of them ceases to be a primary
U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), in which case the Company will substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and 
 (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date,
the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount), as provided to the Quotation Agent by that Reference Treasury Dealer
at 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding that Redemption Date. 
 Notice of redemption shall be
given by mail to Holders of Securities of this series, not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, all as provided in the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture, notice of redemption at the election of the
Company as aforesaid may state that such redemption shall be conditional upon the receipt by the applicable Paying Agent or Agents of money sufficient to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this Security on or prior to the
date fixed for such redemption; a notice of redemption so conditioned shall be of no force or effect if such money is not so received and, in such event, the Company shall not be required to redeem this Security. 

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series, of like tenor, representing the
unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
 If an Event of
Default with respect to the Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of this Security 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 Trustee to enter into one or more supplemental indentures for the
purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, the Indenture with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series then
Outstanding under the Indenture, considered as one class; provided, however, that if there shall be Securities of more than one series Outstanding under the Indenture and if a proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the
rights of the Holders of Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such series, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so directly affected, considered as
one class, shall be required; and provided, further, that if the Securities of any series shall have been issued in more than one Tranche and if the proposed supplemental indenture shall directly affect the rights of the Holders of
Securities of one or more, but less than all, of such Tranches, then the consent only of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding 

  
 3 







 
Securities of all Tranches so directly affected, considered as one class, shall be required; and provided, further, that the Indenture permits the Trustee to enter into one or more
supplemental indentures for limited purposes without the consent of any Holders of Securities. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, on behalf of the
Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by the Company 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 Security shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Security. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall
alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, in the coin or currency, and in the manner, herein
prescribed. 
 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, this Security or
any portion of the principal amount hereof shall be deemed to have been paid for all purposes of the Indenture and to be no longer Outstanding thereunder, and, at the election of the Company, the Company’s entire indebtedness in respect thereof
shall be satisfied and discharged, if there has been irrevocably deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent (other than the Company or the Guarantor), in trust, money in an amount which shall be sufficient and/or Eligible Obligations, the
principal of and interest on which when due, without any regard to reinvestment thereof, shall provide moneys which, together with moneys so deposited, shall be sufficient to pay when due the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this
Security when due. 
 The Indenture contains terms, provisions and conditions relating to the consolidation or merger of the
Company or the Guarantor with or into, and the conveyance or other transfer, or lease, of assets to, another Person, to the assumption by such other Person, in certain circumstances, of all of the obligations of the Company or the Guarantor under
the Indenture and on the Securities (or the Guarantees endorsed thereon, as the case may be) and to the release and discharge of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, in certain circumstances, from such obligations. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the
Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office of The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, New York or such other office or agency as may be designated by the Company from time to time, duly endorsed
by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this
series of authorized denominations and of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, shall be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities of this series are issuable only as registered Securities, without coupons, and in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture
and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of the same series and Tranche, of any authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same, and of like tenor upon surrender of the Security or Securities to be exchanged at the office of The Bank of New York Mellon in New York, New York or such other office or agency as may be designated by the Company from time to
time. 
 The Company shall not be required to execute and the Security Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer
of or exchange of (a) Securities of this series during a period of 15 days immediately preceding the date notice is given identifying the serial numbers of the Securities of this series called for redemption or (b) any Security so selected
for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part. 
 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 Security 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 Security is registered as the absolute owner hereof for all purposes (subject to Sections 305 and 307 of the Indenture), whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee
nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

  
 4 







 The Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York (including, without limitation, Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law or any successor to such statute), except to the extent that the Trust Indenture Act shall be applicable. 

As used herein, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is not a day on which banking institutions
or trust companies are generally authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The City of New York or other city in which is located any Paying Agent for the Securities of this series. All other terms used in this
Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 As provided in the
Indenture, no recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Securities, any Guarantees or any part thereof, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof, or of the indebtedness
represented thereby, or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement under the Indenture, against, and no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, or be incurred by, any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or
future of the Company or the Guarantor or of any predecessor or successor of either of them (either directly or through the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, or a predecessor or successor of either of them), whether by virtue of any
constitutional provision, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being expressly agreed and understood that the Indenture and this Security and the Guarantee endorsed hereon are solely corporate
obligations and that any such personal liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as part of the consideration for, the execution of the Indenture and the issuance of this Security and such Guarantee. 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent by manual signature, this
Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 GUARANTEE 
 PPL Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor under the Indenture (the “Indenture”)
referred to in the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed), for value received, hereby fully and unconditionally guarantees to the Holder of the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed, the due and punctual payment of the principal
of, and premium, if any, and interest on such Security when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of such
Security and of the Indenture. In case of the failure of PPL Capital Funding, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture), punctually to make
any such payment, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, and as
if such payment were made by the Company. 
 The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be absolute and
unconditional irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of such Security or the Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of such Security or the Indenture, or any waiver, modification or
indulgence granted to the Company with respect thereto, by the Holder of such Security or the Trustee or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor; provided, however,
that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of such Security, or increase the interest rate thereon, or change any redemption provisions
thereof (including any change to increase any premium payable upon redemption thereof) or change the Stated Maturity thereof. 

The Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for payment, any requirement that the Trustee or the Holder of
such Security exhaust any right or take any action against the Company or any other Person, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the Company, protest
or notice with respect to such Security or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged in respect of such Security except by complete performance of the obligations
contained in such Security and in this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall constitute a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The Guarantor hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on
such Security, whether at its Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Security, subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture, directly against the Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee without first proceeding against the Company. 
 The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder with respect to such Security shall be continuing and irrevocable until the date upon which the entire principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on such
Security has been, or has been deemed pursuant to the provisions of Article Seven of the Indenture to have been, paid in full or otherwise discharged. 
 The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of such Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed against the Company in respect of any amounts paid by the Guarantor on account of such
Security pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee or the Indenture; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal
of, and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on all Securities issued under the Indenture shall have been paid in full. 

This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue notwithstanding any petition filed by or against the Company for
liquidation or reorganization, the Company becoming insolvent or making an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a receiver or trustee being appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest
extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of the Security upon which this Guarantee is endorsed, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be
restored or returned by the Holder of such Security, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part
