June 15 and December 15 in each year, commencing June 15, 2012 at the rate of 1.40% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for
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, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 Reverse of Note 

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 a Senior Debt Securities Indenture, dated as of July 3, 1995, as supplemented or modified by supplement dated December 17, 1997 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the
Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, 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 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 designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $575,000,000. 
 The Securities of this series will be redeemable as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the
principal amount of such notes being redeemed, and (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon from the redemption date to December 15, 2014, 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 20 basis points, plus, in either case, any interest accrued but not paid to the date of redemption. 

Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but no more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Securities
to be redeemed. 
 Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest
will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption. 
 In the event of redemption of this Security
in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. Set forth
below are defined terms used herein: 
 “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States
Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be 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 Securities. 

  
 5 








 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference
Treasury Dealers appointed by the Trustee after consultation with the Company. 
 “Comparable Treasury
Price” means, with respect to any redemption date for the Securities, (i) the average of three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains fewer than three such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer”
means each of Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and one additional Primary Treasury Dealer. If any Reference Treasury Dealer ceases to be a primary U. S. Government
Securities dealer in the United States (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”) the Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury 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 5:00 p.m. on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date. 
 “Treasury
Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date for the Securities, (i) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release
designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant
maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Maturity Date, yields for the two published maturities
most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (ii) if such release (or
any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using 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 Treasury Rate shall be calculated on the third business day preceding the redemption date.

 The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness evidenced by this Security
and (b) certain restrictive covenants, in each case upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 

  
 6 








 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Securities 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 Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities
of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected (voting as a single
class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, 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 herefor 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 any premium and interest on, this Security 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 Security is registrable in the
Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security is payable, 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 and of like tenor,
of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in addition 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 this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same. 
 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. 

  
 7 








 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 owner hereof for all purposes, 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.
