All
calculations with respect to the Redemption Amount will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth, with five one-millionths
rounded upward (e.g., 0.000005 would be rounded to 0.00001); and the Redemption Amount will be rounded to the nearest cent, with
one-half cent rounded upward.


 


“Index”
shall mean the Dow Jones Industrial Average®.


 


The
“Pricing Date” shall mean March 26, 2020.


 


The
“Starting Value” is 22,552.17, the Closing Level of the Index on the Pricing Date.


 


The
“Closing Level” of the Index on any Market Measure Business Day means the official closing level of the Index
reported by the Index Publisher on such Market Measure Business Day, subject to the provisions set forth below under “Discontinuance
of the Index,” “Adjustments to the Index” and “Market Disruption Events.”


 


The
“Ending Value” will be the average of the Closing Levels of the Index on each Calculation Day (as defined below)
occurring during the Maturity Valuation Period (as defined below), subject to the provisions set forth below under “Market
Description Events.”


 


The
“Threshold Value” is 22,552.17, which is equal to 100% of the Starting Value, rounded to two decimal places.


 


The
“Participation Rate” is 205.00%.


 


A

below) is calculated and published.

“Maturity
Valuation Period” means each of March 19, 2025, March 20, 2025, March 21, 2025, March 24, 2025 and March 25, 2025, subject
to the provisions set forth below under “Market Disruption Events.”

Company may appoint a different Calculation Agent from time to time after the initial issuance of this Security without the consent
of the Holder of this Security and without notifying the Holder of this Security.


 


Adjustments
to the Index


 


If,
after the Pricing Date, the Index Publisher makes a material change in the method of calculating the Index or in another way that
changes the Index such that it does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agents, fairly represent the level of the Index had
those changes or modifications not been made, the Calculation Agents will, at the close of business in New York, New York, on
each date that the Closing Level is to be calculated, make adjustments to the Index. Those adjustments will be made in good faith
as necessary to arrive at a calculation of a level of the Index as if those changes or modifications had not been made, and the
Calculation Agents shall calculate the Closing Level of the Index, as so adjusted.


 


Discontinuance
of the Index


 


If,
after the Pricing Date, the Index Publisher discontinues publication of the Index, and the Index Publisher or another entity then
publishes a substitute index that the Calculation Agents determine, in their sole discretion, to be comparable to the original
Index (a “Successor Index”), the Calculation Agents will substitute the Successor Index as calculated by the
relevant Index Publisher or any other entity and calculate the Ending Value as described in the definition of “Ending Value”
above. If the Calculation Agents select a Successor Index, the Calculation Agents will give written notice of the selection to
the Trustee, to the Company, and to the Holder hereof.


 


If
the Index Publisher discontinues publication of the Index before the end of the Maturity Valuation Period and the Calculation
Agents do not select a Successor Index, then on each day that would have been a Calculation Day, until the earlier to occur of:


 


		●	the
                                         determination of the Ending Value; and



 


		●	a
                                         determination by the Calculation Agents that a Successor Index is available,



 






    3


     


    

 


the
Calculation Agents will compute a substitute level for the Index in accordance with the procedures last used to calculate the
Index before any discontinuance as if that day were a Calculation Day. The Calculation Agents will make available to the Holder
hereof information regarding those levels by means of Bloomberg L.P., Thomson Reuters, a website, or any other means selected
by the Calculation Agents in their reasonable discretion.


 


If
a Successor Index is selected or the Calculation Agents calculate a level as a substitute for the Index, the Successor Index or
level will be used as a substitute for all purposes, including for the purpose of determining whether a Market Disruption Event
exists.


 


Market
Disruption Events 


 


“Market
Disruption Event” means one or more of the following events, as determined by the Calculation Agents in their sole discretion:


 


		(A)	the
                                         suspension of or material limitation on trading, in each case, for more than two consecutive
                                         hours of trading, or during the one-half hour period preceding the close of trading,
                                         on the primary exchange where the securities included in the Index trade (without taking
                                         into account any extended or after-hours trading session), in 20% or more of the securities
                                         which then compose the Index or any Successor Index; and



 


		(B)	the
                                         suspension of or material limitation on trading, in each case, for more than two consecutive
                                         hours of trading, or during the one-half hour period preceding the close of trading,
                                         on the primary exchange that trades options contracts or futures contracts related to
                                         the Index (without taking into account any extended or after-hours trading session),
                                         whether by reason of movements in price otherwise exceeding levels permitted by the relevant
                                         exchange or otherwise, in options contracts or futures contracts related to the Index,
                                         or any Successor Index.



 


For
the purpose of determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred:


 


		1)	a
                                         limitation on the hours in a trading day and/or number of days of trading will not constitute
                                         a Market Disruption Event if it results from an announced change in the regular business
                                         hours of the relevant exchange;



 


		2)	a
                                         decision to permanently discontinue trading in the relevant futures or options contracts
                                         related to the Index, or any Successor Index, will not constitute a Market Disruption
                                         Event;



 


		3)	a
                                         suspension in trading in a futures or options contract on the Index, or any Successor
                                         Index, by a major securities market by reason of (a) a price change violating limits
                                         set by that securities market, (b) an imbalance of orders relating to those contracts,
                                         or (c) a disparity in bid and ask quotes relating to those contracts will constitute
                                         a suspension of or material limitation on trading in futures or options contracts related
                                         to the Index;



 






    4


     


    

 


		4)	a
                                         suspension of or material limitation on trading on the relevant exchange will not include
                                         any time when that exchange is closed for trading under ordinary circumstances; and



 


		5)	if
                                         the Index has component securities listed on the NYSE, for the purpose of clause (A) above,
                                         any limitations on trading during significant market fluctuations under NYSE Rule 80B,
                                         or any applicable rule or regulation enacted or promulgated by the NYSE or any other
                                         self-regulatory organization or the Securities and Exchange Commission of similar scope
                                         as determined by the Calculation Agents, will be considered “material.”



 


If
(i) a Market Disruption Event occurs on a scheduled Calculation Day during the Maturity Valuation Period or (ii) any scheduled
Calculation Day is determined by the Calculation Agents not to be a Market Measure Business Day by reason of an extraordinary
event, occurrence, declaration, or otherwise (any such day in either (i) or (ii) being a “Non-Calculation Day”),
the Closing Level of the Index for the applicable Non-Calculation Day will be the Closing Level of the Index on the next Calculation
Day that occurs during the Maturity Valuation Period. For example, if the first and second scheduled Calculation Days during the
Maturity Valuation Period are Non-Calculation Days, then the Closing Level of the Index on the next Calculation Day will also
be the Closing Level for the Index on the first and second scheduled Calculation Days during the Maturity Valuation Period. If
no further Calculation Days occur after a Non-Calculation Day, or if every scheduled Calculation Day during the Maturity Valuation
Period is a Non-Calculation Day, then the Closing Level of the Index for that Non-Calculation Day and each following Non-Calculation
Day (or for all the scheduled Calculation Days during the Maturity Valuation Period, if applicable) will be determined (or, if
not determinable, estimated) by the Calculation Agents in a commercially reasonable manner on the last scheduled Calculation Day
during the Maturity Valuation Period, regardless of the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event on that last scheduled Calculation
Day.


 


Calculation
Agent


 


The
Calculation Agents have the sole discretion to make all determinations regarding this Security as described in this Security,
including determinations regarding the Starting Value, the Threshold Value, the Ending Value, the Index, the Redemption Amount,
any Market Disruption Events, a Successor Index, Market Measure Business Days, Business Days, Calculation Days, Non-Calculation
Days, and determinations related to the discontinuance of the Index. Absent manifest error, all determinations of the Calculation
Agents will be conclusive for all purposes and final and binding on the Holder hereof and the Company, without any liability on
the part of the Calculation Agents.


 


The
Company covenants that, so long as this Security is Outstanding, there shall at all times be a Calculation Agent (which shall
be a broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution) with respect to this Security.


 


Tax
Considerations


 


The
Company agrees, and by acceptance of a beneficial ownership interest in this Security each Holder of this Security will be deemed
to have agreed (in the absence of a statutory,


 






    5


     


    

 


regulatory,
administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary), for United States federal income tax purposes to characterize and treat this
Security as a prepaid derivative contract that is an “open transaction.”


 


Redemption
and Repayment


 


This
Security is not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the Holder hereof prior to March
28, 2025. This Security is not entitled to any sinking fund.


 


Acceleration


 


If
an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to this Security shall occur and be continuing, the Redemption
Amount (calculated as set forth in the next sentence) of this Security may be declared due and payable in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Indenture. The amount
payable to the Holder hereof upon any acceleration permitted under the Indenture will be equal to the Redemption Amount described
under “Determination of Redemption Amount,” determined as if the date of acceleration were the sole Calculation Day.

all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.


 


Unless
the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature
or its duly authorized agent under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not
be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

NOTE, SERIES A 


Fully

Leveraged
Index Return Notes® Linked
to the Dow Jones Industrial Average® 



 





This
Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued
and to be issued in one or more series under an indenture dated as of April 25, 2018, as amended or supplemented from time to
time (herein called the “Indenture”), among the Company, as issuer, the Guarantor and Citibank, N.A., as trustee
(herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture
and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms
upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security
is one of the series of the Securities designated as Medium-Term Notes, Series A, of the Company. The amount payable on the Securities
of this series may be determined by reference to the performance of one or more equity-, commodity- or currency-based indices,
exchange traded funds, securities, commodities, currencies, statistical measures of economic or financial performance, or a basket
comprised of two or more of the foregoing, or any other market measure or may bear interest at a fixed rate or a floating rate.
The Securities of this series may mature at different times, be redeemable at different
times or not at all, be repayable at the option of the Holder at different times or not at all and be denominated in different
currencies.


 


The
Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons and will be either (a) book-entry securities represented
by one or more Global Securities recorded in the book-entry system maintained by the Depositary or (b) certificated securities
issued to and registered in the names of, the beneficial owners or their nominees.


 


The
Company agrees, to the extent permitted by law, not to voluntarily claim the benefits of any laws concerning usurious rates of
interest against a Holder of this Security.

The
Securities of this series are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantor as and to the extent set forth in the Indenture.


 


Modification
and Waivers 


 


The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of the Company and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture
at any time by the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal


 






    8


     


    

 


amount of
the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected, acting together as a class. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time Outstanding affected by certain
provisions of the Indenture, acting together as a class, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance
by the Company or the Guarantor with those provisions of the Indenture. Certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences
may be waived under the Indenture by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time
Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series. Solely
for the purpose of determining whether any consent, waiver, notice or other action or Act to be taken or given by the Holders
of Securities pursuant to the Indenture has been given or taken by the Holders of Outstanding Securities in the requisite aggregate
principal amount, the principal amount of this Security will be deemed to be equal to the amount set forth on the face hereof
as the “Principal Amount” hereof. 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 herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent
or waiver is made upon this Security.

provisions of Section 401 of the Indenture shall apply to this Security.

Security may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary
to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or by the Depositary or any such nominee to a successor of the Depositary

corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty
or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly
waived and released.
