*First Supplemental Indenture Relating to 1.100% Notes Due 2027* 

On June 18, 2026, Whirlpool Finance Luxembourg S.à r.l. (the "Issuer") entered into a supplemental indenture (the "First Supplemental Indenture"), among the Issuer, as issuer, Whirlpool Corporation, as parent (the "Company"), and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as successor-in-interest to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "Trustee"), to the indenture, dated as of November 2, 2016 (the "Indenture"), relating to the 1.100% Notes due 2027 (ISIN: XS1716616179) (the "2027 Notes").

The First Supplemental Indenture was entered into to effectuate a certain amendment (the "Amendment") to the Indenture with respect to the 2027 Notes for which consents were solicited in the previously announced tender offer and consent solicitation described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated June 1, 2026 (the "Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation"). Specifically, the First Supplemental Indenture will amend the Indenture by revising the first sentence of Section 10.01 (Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture) with respect to the 2027 Notes by replacing all references to "one year" with "two years," thereby accelerating the Issuer's ability to satisfy and discharge the Indenture with respect to the 2027 Notes. The Amendment will become operative pursuant to the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture once the Company has purchased all tendered 2027 Notes at the expiration of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation.

As of 5:00 p.m., Central European time (11:00 a.m., New York City time), on June 12, 2026, €546,715,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2027 Notes, representing approximately 91.12% of the outstanding principal amount of the 2027 Notes, had been validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn), which amount was sufficient to constitute the requisite consents to approve the Amendment.

A copy of the First Supplemental Indenture is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated by reference herein. The description of the First Supplemental Indenture contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Supplemental Indenture.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

**WITNESSETH:** 

**WHEREAS**, the Issuer has issued its 1.100% Notes due 2027 (the "*Notes*") pursuant to the Indenture;

**WHEREAS**, the Parent has offered to purchase for cash any and all outstanding Notes (the "*Tender Offer*");

**WHEREAS**, in connection with the Tender Offer, the Parent has requested that Holders of the Notes deliver their consents with respect to the amendment of a certain provision of the Indenture;

**WHEREAS**, Section 8.02 of the Indenture provides that the Issuer and Parent, when authorized by a resolution of their Boards of Directors, and the Trustee may supplement the Indenture with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding notes of a series affected by such supplement;

**WHEREAS**, the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes have duly consented to the proposed modification set forth in this Supplemental Indenture in accordance with the Indenture (including Section 8.02 thereof);

**WHEREAS**, the Issuer and Parent have heretofore delivered, or are delivering contemporaneously herewith, to the Trustee (i) a copy of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Issuer authorizing the execution of this Supplemental Indenture, (ii) a copy of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Parent authorizing the execution of this Supplemental Indenture, (iii) evidence of the consent of the Holders of the Notes set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph and (iv) the Officer's Certificate described in Section 8.04 of the Indenture and the Opinion of Counsel described in Section 8.04 of the Indenture; and

**WHEREAS**, all conditions necessary to authorize the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture and to make this Supplemental Indenture valid and binding with respect to the Notes have been complied with or have been done or performed.

ARTICLE ONE

AMENDMENT

**SECTION 1.01** *Amendment*.

Subject to Section 2.02 hereof, the Indenture is hereby amended solely with respect to the Notes of such series, and not with respect to any other series of notes issued pursuant to the Indenture, by replacing all references to "one year" in the first sentence of Section 10.01 with "two years."

------

Except as amended hereby, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all of the terms of the Indenture shall remain and continue in full force and effect and are hereby confirmed in all respects. This Supplemental Indenture shall form a part of the Indenture with respect to the Notes for all purposes, and every Holder of Notes heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered shall be bound hereby. From and after the date of this Supplemental Indenture, all references to the Indenture (whether in the Indenture or in any other agreements, documents or instruments) with respect to the Notes shall be deemed to be references to the Indenture as amended and supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture.

**SECTION 2.02** *Effectiveness*. The provisions of this Supplemental Indenture shall be effective only upon execution and delivery of this instrument by the parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the provisions of this Supplemental Indenture shall become operative only upon the purchase by the Parent of all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Tender Offer, which must represent not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer, with the result that the amendment to the Indenture effected by this Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be revoked retroactively to the date hereof if such purchase shall not occur.

**SECTION 2.03** *Governing Law*. This Supplemental Indenture shall be deemed to be a contract under the laws of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of such State.

**SECTION 2.04** *Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process*.

To the extent that any party hereto has or hereafter may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court (including any court in the United States, the State of New York or other jurisdiction in which such party or any successor thereof may be organized or any political subdivisions thereof) or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to itself or its property or assets, this Supplemental Indenture or any other documents or actions to enforce judgments in respect of any thereof, then each such party hereby irrevocably waives such immunity, and any defense based on such immunity, in respect of its obligations under the above-referenced documents and the transactions contemplated thereby, to the extent permitted by law. The Issuer hereby appoints the Parent's Corporate Secretary at the Parent's principal executive offices at 2000 North M-63, Benton Harbor, Michigan 49022, as its agent to receive service of process or other legal summons for purposes of any suit, action or proceeding that may be instituted in any state or federal court in The City of New York, State of New York, United States of America.

------

**SECTION 2.08** *Counterparts*. This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. 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.
