2030” (the “Notes”) issued hereunder (and not to any other series); 
 WHEREAS, the Company has duly authorized the
execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture to establish the Notes as a series of Securities under the Base Indenture and to provide for, among other things, the issuance of and the form and terms of the Notes for purposes of the Notes and

 WHEREAS, all things necessary have been done to make the Notes, when executed by the Company and authenticated

NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the purchase and acceptance of the Notes by the Holders thereof, it is mutually
covenanted and agreed, for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes, as follows:

shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose. Each installment of interest on any Notes
shall be paid by check mailed to the address of such registered Holder as shown on the Security Register. In the case of a Global Security, semiannual interest payable on any applicable Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Depositary, with
respect to that portion of such Global Security held for its account by wire transfer of same-day funds for the purpose of permitting the Depositary to credit the interest received by it in respect of such
Global Security to the accounts of the Beneficial Owners thereof. 

  
 11 













 (ii) Except as otherwise specified with respect to the Notes, any semiannual
interest on any Notes that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any applicable payment date (herein called “Defaulted Interest,” which term shall include any accrued and unpaid interest that has accrued on
such defaulted amount), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company as provided for in Section 2.08
of the Base Indenture. 
 (iii) Subject to the foregoing provisions of Section 2.02 of this Supplemental Indenture and
Section 2.08 of the Base Indenture, Notes delivered under this Supplemental Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Notes shall carry the rights to semiannual interest accrued and unpaid, and to
accrue interest, which were carried by such other Notes. 
 (d) Sinking Fund. There shall be no sinking fund provided for the Notes.

 SECTION 2.03 Optional Redemption by the Company. 

(a) Right to Redeem; Notice to Trustee, Paying Agent and Holders. The Company, at its option, may at any time or from time to time,
prior to December 30, 2029 (the “Par Call Date”), redeem the Notes in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the Principal Amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (2) the sum of the
present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on such Notes discounted to the Optional Redemption Date, on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day months), at a rate equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus in either case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption Date. The
Company, at its option, may redeem the Notes in whole or in part at any time on or after the Par Call Date at a redemption price equal to 100% of the Principal Amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but
excluding, the Optional Redemption Date. On and after the Optional Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes called for redemption (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Optional Redemption
Price and accrued interest). 
 (b) Fewer Than All Outstanding Notes to Be Redeemed. If fewer than all of the outstanding Notes are
to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected in Principal Amounts of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, and in compliance with the applicable policies and procedures of the Depositary (or if the Notes are not
held by a Depositary, the Trustee shall effect such selection pro rata, by lot or by any other method as the Trustee considers fair and appropriate). The Trustee will make such selection promptly following receipt of a notice from the Company
setting forth the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and the proposed Optional Redemption Date and delivered to the Trustee not less than 45 days (unless a shorter period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) prior to the proposed Optional
Redemption Date. 

  
 12 













 (c) Notice of Redemption. If the Company elects to redeem Notes pursuant to
Section 2.03(a) hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the date of redemption (the “Optional Redemption Date”), the Company shall mail or cause to be mailed a notice of redemption by first-class mail to the
Trustee, the Paying Agent and each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s address as it appears on the Security Register or otherwise in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures. Notices of redemption may not be conditional.
Any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the registered Holder received the notice. In any case, failure to duly give such notice to the Holder of any Note
designated for redemption in whole or in part, or any defect in the notice, shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other Note. 

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and shall state: 

(i) the Optional Redemption Date; 

(ii) the Optional Redemption Price and, to the extent known at the time of such notice, the amount of interest (if any) payable
on the Optional Redemption Date; 
 (iii) the name and address of the Paying Agent; 

(iv) that Notes called for redemption must be presented and surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the Optional Redemption
Price plus, if any, accrued and unpaid interest thereon; 
 (v) that, unless the Company defaults in making payment of such
Optional Redemption Price and, if any, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, interest, if any, on the Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on and after the Optional Redemption Date, and the only remaining right of the Holder will be to
receive payment of the Optional Redemption Price upon presentation and surrender to the Paying Agent of the Notes; 
 (vi) if
any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the certificate number and portion of the Principal Amount of such Note that is to be redeemed and that, after the Optional Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in Principal Amount
equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Note; 
 (vii)
the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of this Supplemental Indenture pursuant to which the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption are being redeemed; and 

(viii) the CUSIP and ISIN number or numbers for the Notes called for redemption and that no representation is made as to the
correctness or accuracy of any such CUSIP or ISIN number that is listed in such notice or printed on the Notes. 

  
 13 













 At the Company’s request, made at least five Business Days prior to the date upon which
such notice is to be mailed, the Paying Agent shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. 

(d) Effect of Notice of Redemption. Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 2.03(c) hereof, Notes called
for redemption become due and payable on the Optional Redemption Date and at the Optional Redemption Price plus, if any, accrued and unpaid interest thereon. Upon presentation and surrender to the Paying Agent, Notes called for redemption shall be
paid at the Optional Redemption Price plus, if any, accrued and unpaid interest thereon. 
 (e) Deposit of Optional Redemption Price.
On or before 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the Optional Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or the Paying Agent an amount of money sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price of, and any accrued and unpaid interest,
with respect to all the Notes to be redeemed on that date other than the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption which on or prior thereto have been delivered by the Company to the Security Registrar for cancellation. The Trustee or the
Paying Agent shall, as promptly as practicable, return to the Company any money deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent by the Company in excess of the amounts necessary to pay the Optional Redemption Price of, and any accrued and unpaid
interest with respect to the Notes to be redeemed. 
 The Company shall require each Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) to agree in
writing that the Paying Agent shall hold in trust for the benefit of Holders or the Trustee all money held by the Paying Agent for the payment of the Optional Redemption Price and any accrued and unpaid interest and shall notify the Trustee of any
default by the Company in making any such payment. If the Company or an Affiliate of the Company acts as Paying Agent, it shall segregate the funds sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price plus accrued interest and hold such funds as a
separate trust fund. The Company at any time may require a Paying Agent to pay all money held by it to the Trustee and to account for any funds disbursed by the Paying Agent. Upon doing so, the Paying Agent shall have no further liability for the
money delivered to the Trustee. 
 (f) With respect to the Notes only, Sections 10.02 through 10.06 of the Base Indenture shall not be
applicable. 
 SECTION 2.04 Change of Control Offer. (a) If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs, unless the Company has
exercised its right to redeem all the Notes pursuant to Section 2.03(a), each Holder shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such
Holder’s Notes pursuant to an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company shall offer payment (a “Change of Control Payment”) in cash equal to
not less than 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) which date will be no earlier than the date
of the Change of Control. 

  
 14 













 (b) No later than 30 days following any occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event,
the Company shall mail a notice to the Trustee and each Holder or otherwise give notice in accordance with the procedures of the Depositary describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and
offering to repurchase the Notes on the Change of Control Payment Date specified in such notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, but in no event earlier than the date of the
Change of Control. Such notice shall also state: 
 (i) that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to this
Section 2.04 and that all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn shall be accepted for payment; 
 (ii) the purchase
price and the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (iii) that any Note not properly tendered shall remain outstanding and
continue to accrue interest; 
 (iv) that, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all
Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest on and after the Change of Control Payment Date; 

(v) that Holders electing to have any Notes purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer shall be required to surrender the
Notes, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the Notes completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Paying Agent specified in the notice at the address specified in the notice prior to the
close of business on the third Business Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date; 
 (vi) that Holders shall be
entitled to withdraw their tendered Notes and their election to require the Company to purchase such Notes, provided that the Paying Agent receives at the address specified by it, not later than the close of business on the second Business
Day preceding the Change of Control Payment Date, a facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the Principal Amount of Notes tendered for purchase, and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing its tendered Notes and
its election to have such Notes purchased; and 
 (vii) that Holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part shall be
issued new Notes equal in Principal Amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which unpurchased portion must be equal to $2,000 in Principal Amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

At the Company’s request, made at least five Business Days prior to the date upon which such notice is to be mailed, the Paying Agent
shall give the notice of the Change of Control Offer in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense. 
 (c) The Company shall
comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the Change
of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 2.04, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws or regulations and shall not be deemed to
have breached its obligations under this Section 2.04 by virtue of such compliance. 

  
 15 













 (d) On or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent
lawful: 
 (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

 (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions
thereof properly tendered; and 
 (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so accepted together with
an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by the Company. 
 (e) The
Paying Agent shall promptly mail or wire transfer to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder
a new Note equal in Principal Amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note shall be in a Principal Amount of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. 

(f) The Company shall publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control
Payment Date. 
 (g) The Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a
third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.04 applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes
validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. 
 (h) If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after a Regular
Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on such Regular Record Date, and no additional interest shall be
payable to Holders who tender Notes pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. 
 (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in
this Supplemental Indenture, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement has been executed by the time of making the Change of Control Offer. 

(j) The Security Registrar need not transfer or exchange any Notes tendered and not withdrawn in connection with a Change of Control Offer
(except, in the case of a Note to be repurchased in part, the portion of the Note not to be repurchased) for a period of 15 days before the mailing of a notice of Change of Control Offer and ending at the close of business on the day of such
mailing. 
 (k) This Section 2.04 shall be applicable notwithstanding the applicability of any other provisions of the Indenture.

 [FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF SECURITY] 

THE INTERPUBLIC GROUP OF COMPANIES, INC.

THE INTERPUBLIC GROUP OF COMPANIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the outstanding
Principal Amount of this Note at the rate of 4.750% per annum from March 30, 2020, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be, until Maturity. The Company shall pay

March 15 and September 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest on the Notes will be calculated on the basis of a
360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 
 If any
Interest Payment Date, Optional Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or Maturity date is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and interest, as applicable, will be made on the next succeeding Business Day. No interest will accrue
on the amount so payable for the period from any Interest Payment Date, Optional Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or the Maturity date, as the case may be, to the date payment is made on such next succeeding Business Day.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company shall make payments in respect of the Notes to the Persons who are registered
Holders of Notes as of the close of business on the Business Day preceding the Optional Redemption Date or Maturity date, as the case may be, or at the close of business on a Change of Control Payment Date. Holders must surrender Notes to a Paying
Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Notes. The Company shall pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However, the Company may make such cash

No sinking fund is provided for the Notes. Except as set forth below, the Notes shall not be redeemable by the Company. 

The Company, at its option, may at any time or from time to time, prior to the Par Call Date, redeem the Notes in whole or in part at a
redemption price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the Principal Amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (2) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments on such Notes discounted to the Optional Redemption Date, on a
semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the sum of the applicable Treasury Rate, plus 50 basis points, plus in
either case accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption Date. The Company, at its option, may redeem the Notes in whole or in part at any time on or after the Par Call Date at a redemption price equal to 100% of

	9.	 DEFAULTED INTEREST 



Except as otherwise specified with respect to the Notes, any Defaulted Interest on any Note shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
registered Holder thereof on the relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company as provided for in Section 2.08 of the Base Indenture and Section 2.02 of the
Supplemental Indenture. 
  

	10.	 DENOMINATIONS; TRANSFER; EXCHANGE

In the event of a partial redemption of the Notes or Change of Control Offer, the Security Registrar need not transfer or exchange any Notes selected for redemption (except, in the case of a Note to be redeemed in part, the portion of the Note not
to be redeemed), or any Notes tendered and not withdrawn in connection with a Change of Control Offer (except, in the case of a Note to be repurchased in part, the portion of the Note not to be repurchased), for a period of 15 days before the
mailing of a notice with respect to a redemption or Change of Control Offer, as applicable, and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing. The Notes are subject to certain transfer restrictions set forth in Article 3 of the

	14.	 DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES 



If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the
time outstanding, may declare the outstanding Principal Amount and any accrued and unpaid interest, of all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default which shall result in the Notes
being declared due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of any of such Events of Default. 
 Events of Default in respect of the
Notes are set forth in Section 4.01 of the Base Indenture, as amended and supplemented by Article 4 of the Supplemental Indenture. Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to
enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it receives indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it. Subject to certain limitations, conditions and exceptions, Holders of a majority in aggregate Principal Amount of the Notes at the time
outstanding may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power, including the annulment of a declaration of acceleration. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of amounts
specified in clauses (1) and (2) of Section 4.01 of the Base Indenture) if it determines that withholding notice is in their interests.

property or assets as described in Section 7.01 of the Base Indenture, the successor corporation to the Company shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, and may exercise the Company’s rights and powers under the Indenture, and
thereafter, except in the case of a lease, the Company shall be relieved of all obligations and covenants under the Indenture and the Notes with respect to its obligations under the Indenture. 

 

	16.	 TRUSTEE AND AGENT DEALINGS WITH THE COMPANY 



The Trustee, Paying Agent and Security Registrar under the Indenture, each in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or
pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent or
Security Registrar.

A director, officer or employee, as such, of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company or any stockholder as such, of the Company shall not
have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Supplemental Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. By accepting a Note, each Holder waives and releases all
such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.
