 STATE STREET CORPORATION 

4.956% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURE DUE 2018 

STATE STREET CORPORATION, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of
Massachusetts (hereinafter called the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Original Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered
assigns the principal sum of                      Dollars on March 15, 2018 (such date is hereinafter referred to as the
“Stated Maturity Date”). The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum from September 15, 2010, or from the most recent interest payment date (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”) on
which interest has been paid or duly provided for (subject to deferral as set forth herein), semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, commencing March 15, 2011, at the rate of 6.001% per
annum from and including September 15, 2010 to but not including February 11, 2011 and at the rate of 4.956% per annum from and including February 11, 2011 until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided
for or made available for payment. The amount of interest payable for any period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Junior
Subordinated Debenture is not a Business Day, then a payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), in each case
with the same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable. A “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, or any other day on which banking institutions and trust companies in New
York, New York, Boston, Massachusetts or Wilmington, Delaware, are permitted or required by any applicable law to close. The interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in
the Indenture (as hereinafter defined), be paid to the Person in whose name this Junior Subordinated Debenture (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the


  
 6 








 
Regular Record Date for such interest installment, which shall be the date that is the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which such Interest Payment Date falls (whether or
not a Business Day). Any such interest installment not so punctually 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 Junior Subordinated
Debenture (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 whereof shall be given to Holders of Junior Subordinated
Debentures 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 Junior Subordinated Debentures may be listed, and
upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. 
 If the principal amount
hereof or any portion of such principal amount is not paid when due (whether upon acceleration, upon the date set for payment of the Redemption Price or upon the Stated Maturity Date) or if interest due hereon (or any portion of such interest), is
not paid when due, then in each such case the overdue amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, bear interest at the rate then borne by this Junior Subordinated Debenture for the applicable Interest Period, compounded at the end of such Interest
Period, which interest shall accrue from the date such overdue amount was originally due to the date payment of such amount, including interest thereon, has been made or duly provided for. All such interest shall be payable as set forth in the
Indenture. 
 The Company shall have the right at any time during the term of this Junior Subordinated Debenture to defer
payment of interest on this Junior Subordinated Debenture, at any time or from time to time, for up to 10 consecutive semi-annual Interest Periods (or the equivalent thereof, if the Interest Periods are not then semi-annual) with respect to each
deferral period (each, an “Extension Period”), during which Extension Periods the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date, and at the end of which the Company shall pay all
interest then accrued and unpaid (together with Additional Interest thereon to the extent permitted by applicable law); provided that no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity Date of the principal of this Junior Subordinated
Debenture; provided, further, that during any such Extension Period, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire
or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the Company’s capital stock, (ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt security of the Company that ranks
or make any payments under any guarantee that ranks, upon liquidation, pari passu in all respects with the Junior Subordinated Debenture (including this Junior Subordinated Debenture, “Parity Securities”) or any
debt security of the Company that ranks junior to the Junior Subordinated Debenture or (iii) make any payments with respect to any guarantee by the Company of the debt securities of any Subsidiary of the Company that by their terms ranks equal
or junior in interest to the Guarantee related to the APEX (other than (a) any repurchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of the Company’s capital stock in connection with (1) any employment contract, benefit plan or other
similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors, (2) the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract entered into in the ordinary
course prior to the beginning of the Extension Period, (3) a dividend reinvestment or stockholder purchase plan, or (4) the issuance of the Company’s capital stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock,
as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period; (b) any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or the capital stock of one of its
subsidiaries, for any other class or 

  
 7 








 
series of the Company’s capital stock, or any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of its capital stock; (c) any purchase of fractional interests
in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the securities being converted or exchanged; (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any rights plan, or the
issuance of rights, stock or other property under any rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto; (e) payments under any Guarantee Agreement; (f) any payment of current or deferred interest on Parity Securities
that is made pro rata to the amounts due on such Parity Securities (including the Junior Subordinated Debentures) and any payments of principal of or deferred interest on Parity Securities that, if not made, would cause the Company to breach the
terms of the instrument governing such Parity Securities; or (g) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same
stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equally with or junior to such stock). Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may further extend the interest payment period, provided that no Extension
Period shall exceed 10 consecutive semi-annual Interest Periods or extend beyond the Stated Maturity Date of the principal of this Junior Subordinated Debenture. Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued
and unpaid interest then due, the Company may elect to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. Subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, no interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period except at the end
thereof. The Company shall give the Trustee and the Paying Agent notice of its election to begin or extend any Extension Period at least 10 Business Days prior to the date on which interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures would be payable but
for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period. The Trustee or its designee shall give notice of the Company’s election to begin or extend any Extension Period to the Holders of the Junior Subordinated Debentures and to the
Administrative Trustees. 
 Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Junior Subordinated Debenture
will be made to the Depositary. 
 The indebtedness evidenced by this Junior Subordinated Debenture is, to the extent provided
in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment and upon liquidation to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Junior Subordinated Debenture is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect
thereto. Each Holder of this Junior Subordinated Debenture, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or
appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination
provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions. 

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Junior Subordinated Debenture 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 Junior Subordinated Debenture shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

This Junior Subordinated Debenture is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Junior
Subordinated Debentures”), issued under the Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated as of December 15, 1996 (herein called the “Original Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor in interest

Original Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee, to which Original 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 Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Junior Subordinated Debentures, and of the terms upon which the Junior Subordinated Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered. By terms of the Original Indenture, the Securities are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest, rank and in other respects provided in the Original Indenture. 

All terms used in this Junior Subordinated Debenture that are defined in the Indenture or in the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement,

 The Indenture contains provisions for satisfaction and discharge of
the entire indebtedness of this Junior Subordinated Debenture upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company and the Trustee at any time to enter into a supplemental indenture or indentures for the purpose of modifying in any manner
the rights and obligations of the Company and of the Holders of the Junior Subordinated Debentures, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures to be affected by
such supplemental indenture. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Junior Subordinated Debentures at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Junior Subordinated

conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this 

  
 11 









 
Junior Subordinated Debenture and of any Junior Subordinated Debenture 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 Junior Subordinated Debenture.

interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in Article XIII of the Original Indenture. Upon payment (i) of the amount of principal so declared due and payable and (ii) of interest on any
overdue principal and overdue interest (in each case to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on this
Junior Subordinated Debenture shall terminate.

Subordinated Debenture 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 Junior Subordinated Debenture at the times, place
and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 
 The Junior Subordinated Debentures are issuable only in registered
