On June 16, 2025, Analog Devices, Inc. (the "Company") issued $850,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior notes due June 15, 2028 (the "2028 Notes") and $650,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior notes due June 15, 2030 (the "2030 Notes" and, together with the 2028 Notes, the "Notes") pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281670) (the "Registration Statement") and a related prospectus and prospectus supplement, each as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of June 3, 2013 (the "<u>Base Indenture</u>"), as supplemented by a supplemental indenture, dated as of June 16, 2025 (the "<u>Supplemental Indenture</u>"), in each case between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The Notes are unsecured unsubordinated obligations of the Company and are not guaranteed by any of the Company's subsidiaries. The Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture contain certain covenants, events of default and other customary provisions.

The Notes were sold in an underwritten public offering pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated as of June 12, 2025, between the Company and BofA Securities, Inc., as representative of the several underwriters named therein (the "<u>Underwriting Agreement</u>"). The above description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.

The 2028 Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.250% per annum and will mature on June 15, 2028. The 2030 Notes bear interest at a rate of 4.500% per annum and will mature on June 15, 2030. Interest on each series of Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2025. Prior to May 15, 2028 in the case of the 2028 Notes (the date that is one month prior to the scheduled maturity date of the 2028 Notes) and May 15, 2030 in the case of the 2030 Notes (the date that is one month prior to the scheduled maturity date of the 2030 Notes) (each, a "Par Call Date"), the Company may, at its option, redeem the applicable series of Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes of such series matured on the applicable Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes of such series being redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. On or after the applicable Par Call Date, the Company may, at its option, redeem each series of Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes of such series being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. The Notes are unsecured and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company's other existing and future unsecured senior indebtedness.

The foregoing descriptions of the Notes, the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture are summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such documents. The Base Indenture, which was filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 3, 2013, and the Supplemental Indenture, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2, are incorporated herein by reference. All capitalized terms used above and not otherwise defined have the meaning given to such terms in the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture.

A copy of the opinion of DLA Piper LLP (US), counsel to the Company, relating to the legality of the Notes is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.1 and incorporated into the Registration Statement.

The Representative shall have received a certificate, dated the Closing Date, of an executive officer of the Company and a principal financial or accounting officer of the Company in which such officers shall state that: (i) the representations and warranties of the Company in this Agreement are true and correct; (ii) the Company has complied with all agreements and satisfied all conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior to the Closing Date; (iii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued and no proceedings for that purpose have been instituted or, to their knowledge, are contemplated by the Commission; and (iv), subsequent to the date of the most recent financial statements in the General Disclosure Package, there has been no material adverse change, nor any development or event involving a prospective material adverse change, in the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations, business, properties or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole except as set forth in the General Disclosure Package.

The Company will furnish the Representative with such conformed copies of such opinions, certificates, letters and documents as the Representative reasonably requests. The Representative may, in its sole discretion, waive on behalf of the Underwriters compliance with any conditions to the obligations of the Underwriters hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. *Indemnification and Contribution*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Indemnification of Underwriters*. The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its partners, members, directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, a "**Company Indemnified Party**"), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Company Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any part of the Registration Statement, any Statutory Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Company Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Company Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Company Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, and in connection with the enforcement of this provision with respect to any of the above as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage

------

or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in or omission or alleged omission from any of such documents in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the Representative specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the information described as such in subsection (b) below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Indemnification of Company*. Each Underwriter will severally and not jointly indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and each of its officers who signs a Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an "**Underwriter Indemnified Party**"; each Company Indemnified Party and Underwriter Indemnified Party being referred as an "**Indemnified Party**"), against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Underwriter Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Act, the Exchange Act, other Federal or state statutory law or regulation or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any part of the Registration Statement, any Statutory Prospectus, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representative specifically for use therein, and will reimburse any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability, action, litigation, investigation or proceeding whatsoever (whether or not such Underwriter Indemnified Party is a party thereto), whether threatened or commenced, based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission as such expenses are incurred, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by any Underwriter consists of the following information in the Final Prospectus furnished on behalf of each Underwriter: the concession and reallowance figures appearing in the third paragraph under the caption "Underwriting", the second sentence in the fifth paragraph under the caption "Underwriting", and the information contained in the twelfth and thirteenth paragraphs under the caption "Underwriting".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Actions against Parties; Notification*. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under subsection (a) or (b) above, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability that it may have under subsection (a) or (b) above except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided further that the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Party otherwise than under subsection (a) or (b) above. In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Party and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party (who shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and after notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Section 8 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened action in respect of which any Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such action and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of an Indemnified Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Contribution*. If the indemnification provided for in this Section 8 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an Indemnified Party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only

------

the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The amount paid by an Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 8(d).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. *Default of Underwriters*. If any Underwriter or Underwriters default in their obligations to purchase Securities of a series hereunder on the Closing Date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities of that series that such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 10% of the total principal amount of Securities of that series that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Securities by other persons, including any of the Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters of the relevant series of the Securities shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments hereunder, to purchase the Securities of the relevant series that such defaulting Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase on the Closing Date. If any Underwriter or Underwriters so default and the aggregate principal amount of Securities of the relevant series with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 10% of the total principal amount of Securities of that series that the Underwriters are obligated to purchase on the Closing Date and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative and the Company for the purchase of such Securities by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability with respect to such Securities on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except as provided in Section 10 hereof. As used in this Agreement, the term "Underwriter" includes any person substituted for an Underwriter under this Section 9. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. *Survival of Certain Representations and Obligations*. The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the several Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation, or statement as to the results thereof, made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Company or any of their respective representatives, officers or directors or any controlling person, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. If the purchase of the Securities by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9 hereof or the occurrence of any event specified in clause (iii), (iv), (vi), (vii) or (viii) of Section 7(c) hereof, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Securities, and the respective obligations of the Company and the Underwriters pursuant to Section 8 hereof shall remain in effect. In addition, if any Securities have been purchased hereunder, the representations and warranties in Section 2 hereof and all obligations under Section 5 hereof shall also remain in effect.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. *Notices*. All communications hereunder will be in writing and, if sent to the Underwriters, will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to the Representative c/o BofA Securities, Inc., 114 West 47th Street, NY8- 114-07-01, New York, New York 10036, Attention: High Grade Debt Capital Markets Transaction Management/Legal. Notices to the Company will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to it at One Analog Way, Wilmington, Massachusetts 01887, Attention: Chief Legal Officer; provided, however, that any notice to an Underwriter pursuant to Section 8 hereof will be mailed, delivered or telegraphed and confirmed to such Underwriter.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. *Successors*.

Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including any electronic signature covered by the U.S. Federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g., www.docusign.com) or other transmission method, and any counterpart so delivered shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. *Absence of Fiduciary Relationship.* The Company acknowledges and agrees that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *No Other Relationship*. The Representative has been retained solely to act as underwriter in connection with the sale of Securities and that no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the Company and the Representative has been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Final Prospectus, irrespective of whether the Representative has advised or is advising the Company on other matters;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Arm's-Length Negotiations*. The price of the Securities set forth in this Agreement was established by the Company following discussions and arm's-length negotiations with the Representative and the Company is capable of evaluating and understanding and understands and accepts the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Absence of Obligation to Disclose*. The Company has been advised that the Representative and its affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve interests that differ from those of the Company and that the Representative has no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Waiver*. The Company waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Representative for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees that the Representative shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the Company, including stockholders, employees or creditors of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. *Patriot Act*. In accordance with the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies their respective clients, including the Company, which information may include the name and address of their respective clients, as well as other information that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their respective clients.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**17. *Applicable Law and Waiver of Jury Trial*.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) **This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.**

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company hereby submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York and irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit or proceeding in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. *Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes*.

For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the applicable Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the applicable Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the applicable Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the applicable Par Call Date, the Company will select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the applicable Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the applicable Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company will select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

**REDEMPTION AND PREPAYMENT** 

Section 3.1. *Optional Redemption*.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) At any time prior to the applicable Par Call Date, the Company will have the right, at its option, to redeem each Series of Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) (i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes of such Series matured on the applicable Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points less (ii) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes of such Series being redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On or after the applicable Par Call Date, the Company will have the right, at its option, to redeem each Series of Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes of such Series being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Company's actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall not be obligated to calculate or verify any redemption price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary's standard procedures therefor) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by DTC (or another Depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

Section 3.2. *Mandatory Redemption*.

The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

ANALOG DEVICES, INC.

4.250% Senior Note due June 15, 2028

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

Analog Devices, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the "***Company***"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 2028 Note at 4.250% per annum from the date hereof until maturity. The Company will pay interest on the 2028 Notes semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2025, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest will accrue on the amount so payable in respect of such 2028 Notes for that period (each an "***Interest Payment Date***"). Interest on the 2028 Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid or provided for, from June 16, 2025; *provided* that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this 2028 Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest will accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law to the extent allowable) on overdue principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the 2028 Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law to the extent allowable) on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest on the 2028 Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. *METHOD OF PAYMENT*. The Company will pay interest on the 2028 Notes (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are registered Holders of 2028 Notes at the close of business on the June 1 or December 1 (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date, even if such 2028 Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Base Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Principal and interest on the 2028 Notes will be payable at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the 2028 Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the register of Holders of 2028 Notes; *provided* that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest on all Global Notes and all other 2028 Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent at least 15 calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. *PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR*.

This 2028 Note is one of a duly authenticated Series of securities of the Company issued and to be issued in one or more Series under an indenture (the "***Base Indenture***"), dated as of June 3, 2013, between the Company and the Trustee, as amended by the Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 16, 2025, between the Company and the Trustee (the "***Supplemental Indenture***" and, together with the Base Indenture, the "***Indenture***"). The terms of the 2028 Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The 2028 Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this 2028 Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture will govern and be controlling, and to the extent any provision of the Base Indenture conflicts with the express provisions of the Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of the Supplemental Indenture will govern and be controlling. The Company will be entitled to issue Additional 2028 Notes pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Supplemental Indenture.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. *OPTIONAL REDEMPTION*.

At any time prior to May 15, 2028 (the "*Par Call Date*"), the Company will have the right, at its option, to redeem the 2028 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(I) (i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon
discounted to the redemption date (assuming the 2028 Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points less (ii) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(II) 100% of the principal amount of the 2028 Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company will have the right, at its option, to redeem the 2028 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2028 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

The Company's actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall not be obligated to calculate or verify any redemption price.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary's procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of 2028 Notes to be redeemed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the 2028 Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No 2028 Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such 2028 Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the 2028 Note to be redeemed. A new 2028 Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the 2028 Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the 2028 Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original 2028 Note. For so long as the 2028 Notes are held by DTC (or another Depositary), the redemption of the 2028 Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the 2028 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. *MANDATORY REDEMPTION.* The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the 2028 Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. *OFFER TO PURCHASE UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL*. If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the 2028 Notes, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the 2028 Notes in full pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Supplemental Indenture or has defeased the 2028 Notes or satisfied and discharged the 2028 Notes, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a "***Change of Control Offer***") to each Holder of the 2028 Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided that the unrepurchased portion of a 2028 Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000) of that Holder's 2028 Notes pursuant to the terms set forth in the Indenture. In a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2028 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 2028 Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. *DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE*. The 2028 Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 2028 Notes may be transferred or exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company or the Trustee may require a Holder to

------

pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or transfer any 2028 Note or portion of a 2028 Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any 2028 Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any 2028 Notes for a period of 15 days before the day of any selection of 2028 Notes being redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. *PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS*. Subject to the record date provisions hereof, the registered Holder of a 2028 Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. *AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER*. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the 2028 Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the 2028 Notes then outstanding, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the 2028 Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the 2028 Notes, may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding 2028 Notes, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the 2028 Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of a 2028 Note, the Indenture or the 2028 Notes may be amended or supplemented (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for a supplemental indenture as set forth in Article V of the Base Indenture; (iii) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; (iv) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; (v) to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the Securities of any Series as permitted by the Indenture; (vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture by a successor Trustee and to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts under the Indenture by more than one Trustee; or (vii) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. *DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES*. If an Event of Default with respect to the 2028 Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, the outstanding 2028 Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. *TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY*. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of the 2028 Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. *NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS*. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company will not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the 2028 Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a 2028 Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the 2028 Notes.

ANALOG DEVICES, INC.

4.500% Senior Note due June 15, 2030

Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. *INTEREST*. Analog Devices, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the "***Company***"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this 2030 Note at 4.500% per annum from the date hereof until maturity. The Company will pay interest on the 2030 Notes semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing December 15, 2025, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest will accrue on the amount so payable in respect of such 2030 Notes for that period (each an "***Interest Payment Date***"). Interest on the 2030 Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid or provided for, from June 16, 2025; *provided* that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this 2030 Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest will accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law to the extent allowable) on overdue principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the 2030 Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law to the extent allowable) on overdue installments of interest at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest on the 2030 Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. *METHOD OF PAYMENT*. The Company will pay interest on the 2030 Notes (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are registered Holders of 2030 Notes at the close of business on the June 1 or December 1 (whether or not a Business Day) next preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date, even if such 2030 Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Base Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Principal and interest on the 2030 Notes will be payable at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the 2030 Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the register of Holders of 2030 Notes; *provided* that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest on all Global Notes and all other 2030 Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent at least 15 calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. *PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR*. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. *INDENTURE*. This 2030 Note is one of a duly authenticated Series of securities of the Company issued and to be issued in one or more Series under an indenture (the "***Base Indenture***"), dated as of June 3, 2013, between the Company and the Trustee, as amended by the Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 16, 2025, between the Company and the Trustee (the "***Supplemental Indenture***" and, together with the Base Indenture, the "***Indenture***"). The terms of the 2030 Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The 2030 Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this 2030 Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture will govern and be controlling, and to the extent any provision of the Base Indenture conflicts with the express provisions of the Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of the Supplemental Indenture will govern and be controlling. The Company will be entitled to issue Additional 2030 Notes pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Supplemental Indenture.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. *OPTIONAL REDEMPTION*.

At any time prior to May 15, 2030 (the "*Par Call Date*"), the Company will have the right, at its option, to redeem the 2030 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(I) (i) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon
discounted to the redemption date (assuming the 2030 Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points less (ii) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(II) 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company will have the right, at its option, to redeem the 2030 Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

The Company's actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall not be obligated to calculate or verify any redemption price.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary's procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of 2030 Notes to be redeemed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the 2030 Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No 2030 Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to such 2030 Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the 2030 Note to be redeemed. A new 2030 Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the 2030 Note will be issued in the name of the holder of the 2030 Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original 2030 Note. For so long as the 2030 Notes are held by DTC (or another Depositary), the redemption of the 2030 Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the 2030 Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. *MANDATORY REDEMPTION.* The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the 2030 Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. *OFFER TO PURCHASE UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL*. If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the 2030 Notes, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the 2030 Notes in full pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Supplemental Indenture or has defeased the 2030 Notes or satisfied and discharged the 2030 Notes, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a "***Change of Control Offer***") to each Holder of the 2030 Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; provided that the unrepurchased portion of a 2030 Note must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000) of that Holder's 2030 Notes pursuant to the terms set forth in the Indenture. In a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the 2030 Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. *DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE*. The 2030 Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 2030 Notes may be transferred or exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company or the Trustee may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or transfer

------

any 2030 Note or portion of a 2030 Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any 2030 Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any 2030 Notes for a period of 15 days before the day of any selection of 2030 Notes being redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. *PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS*. Subject to the record date provisions hereof, the registered Holder of a 2030 Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. *AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER*. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the 2030 Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the 2030 Notes then outstanding, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the 2030 Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the 2030 Notes, may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding 2030 Notes, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the 2030 Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of a 2030 Note, the Indenture or the 2030 Notes may be amended or supplemented (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for a supplemental indenture as set forth in Article V of the Base Indenture; (iii) to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities; (iv) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; (v) to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the Securities of any Series as permitted by the Indenture; (vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture by a successor Trustee and to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts under the Indenture by more than one Trustee; or (vii) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. *DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES*. If an Event of Default with respect to the 2030 Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, the outstanding 2030 Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. *TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY*. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of the 2030 Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. *NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS*. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company will not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the 2030 Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a 2030 Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the 2030 Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. *AUTHENTICATION*. This 2030 Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual or electronic signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. *ABBREVIATIONS*. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. *CUSIP NUMBERS*. The Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the 2030 Notes and the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the 2030 Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the 2030 Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture.

Our opinion in paragraph 2 is subject to the following additional assumptions and qualifications:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Enforceability is subject to, and may be limited by: (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
arrangement, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, including, without limitation, laws regarding fraudulent conveyances and preferential transfers; (ii) general principles of equity, including, without
limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity); (iii) any statute,
decision or rule of law prohibiting or limiting the exercise of simultaneous remedies; and (iv) limitations or qualifications on the enforcement of certain rights, remedies, waivers and other provisions by the jurisdiction in which enforcement
thereof is sought.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Further, we express no opinion on any provision contained in the Indenture or the Notes (i) relating to
indemnification or contribution which are violative of the public policy underlying any law, rule or regulation (including any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation), or that purports to release, exculpate or exempt a party from, or
requiring indemnification of a party for, liability for its own action or inaction, to the extent the action or inaction involves gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or unlawful conduct; (ii) purporting to require a party thereto
to pay or reimburse attorneys' fees incurred by another party, or to indemnify another party therefor, which provisions may be limited by applicable statutes and decisions relating to the collection and award of attorneys' fees;
(iii) relating to consents to or restrictions upon governing law; (iv) regarding consent to service, jurisdiction, venue or forum of any claim, demand, action or cause of action arising under or related to the Indenture, the Notes or the
transactions contemplated therein, which may not be binding on the courts in the forums selected or excluded; (v) purporting to waive certain rights or defenses, including the waiver by any party of the right to trial by jury, to the extent
that such a waiver is deemed to violate public policy; (vi) that requires waiver or amendments to be made only in writing, or (vii) regarding the severability, if invalid, of provisions of such agreements.
