------

The Company and the Guarantor hereby confirm their agreement with the several Underwriters concerning the purchase and sale of the Securities, as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. <u>Registration Statement</u>. The Company and the Guarantor have prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the "<u>Securities Act</u>"), a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-289917), including a prospectus, relating to the Securities and the Guarantee. Such registration statement, as amended at the time it became effective, including the information, if any, deemed pursuant to Rule 430A, 430B or 430C under the Securities Act to be part of the registration statement at the time of its effectiveness ("<u>Rule 430 Information</u>"), is referred to herein as the "<u>Registration Statement</u>"; and as used herein, the term "<u>Preliminary Prospectus</u>" means each prospectus included in such Registration Statement (and any amendments thereto) at the time of its effectiveness that omits Rule 430 Information, and the term "<u>Prospectus</u>" means the prospectus supplement that amends or supplements the Preliminary Prospectus in the form first used (or made available upon request of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) in connection with confirmation of sales of the Securities. Any reference in this agreement (this "<u>Agreement</u>") to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include the documents incorporated by reference therein pursuant to Item 12 of Form S-3 under the Securities Act, as of the effective date of the Registration Statement or the date of such Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as the case may be, and any reference to "<u>amend</u>", "<u>amendment</u>" or "<u>supplement</u>" with respect to the Registration Statement, any Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents filed after such date under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (collectively, the "<u>Exchange Act</u>") that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

At or prior to 4:05 p.m., New York City time, on February 10, 2026, the time when sales of the Securities were first made (the "<u>Time of Sale</u>"), the Company had prepared the following information (collectively, the "<u>Time of Sale Information</u>"): a Preliminary Prospectus dated February 10, 2026, and each "<u>free writing prospectus</u>" (as defined pursuant to Rule 405 under the Securities Act ("<u>Rule 405</u>")) listed in <u>Annex A</u> hereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. <u>Purchase and Sale of the Securities</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company agrees to issue and sell the Securities to the several Underwriters as provided in this Agreement, and each Underwriter, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the respective principal amount of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;i. the Floating Rate Notes set forth opposite such Underwriter's name in <u>Schedule 1</u> hereto at a price

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;ii. the 2029 Notes set forth opposite such Underwriter's name in <u>Schedule 1</u> hereto at a price equal to

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iii. the 2031 Notes set forth opposite such Underwriter's name in <u>Schedule 1</u> hereto at a price equal to
99.259% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest, if any, from February 12, 2026 to the Closing Date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;iv. the 2036 Notes set forth opposite such Underwriter's name in <u>Schedule 1</u> hereto at a price equal to
98.815% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest, if any, from February 12, 2026 to the Closing Date.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any of the Securities except upon payment for all the Securities to be purchased as provided herein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company understands that the Underwriters intend to make a public offering of the Securities as soon after the effectiveness of this Agreement as in the judgment of the Representatives is advisable, and initially to offer the Securities on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Information. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters may offer and sell Securities to or through any affiliate of an Underwriter and that any such affiliate may offer and sell Securities purchased by it to or through any Underwriter; <u>provided</u> that such offers and sales shall be made in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Payment for and delivery of the Securities will be made at the offices of Latham & Watkins LLP at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on February 12, 2026, or at such other time or place on the same or such other date, not later than the fifth business day thereafter, as the Representatives and the Company may agree upon in writing. The time and date of such payment and delivery is referred to herein as the "<u>Closing Date</u>".

The Global Note will be made available for inspection by the Representatives not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the business day prior to the Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Company and the Guarantor acknowledge and agree that each Underwriter is acting solely in the capacity of an arm's length contractual counterparty to the Company and the Guarantor with respect to the offering of Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company, the Guarantor or any other person. Additionally, neither the Representatives nor any other Underwriter is advising the Company, the Guarantor or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company and the Guarantor shall consult with their own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Underwriters shall have no responsibility or liability to

------

the Company or the Guarantor with respect thereto. Any review by the Representatives or any other Underwriter of the Company, the Guarantor, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Representatives or such Underwriter, as the case may be, and shall not be on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor, as the case may be, or any other person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. <u>Representations and Warranties of the Company and the Guarantor</u>. The Company and the Guarantor jointly and severally represent and warrant to each Underwriter that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Preliminary Prospectus.* Each Preliminary Prospectus, at the time of filing thereof, complied in all material respects with the Securities Act and did not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u> that the Company and the Guarantor make no representation or warranty with respect to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company or the Guarantor in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through a Representative expressly for use in any Preliminary Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Time of Sale Information*. The Time of Sale Information, at the Time of Sale did not, and at the Closing Date will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u> that the Company and the Guarantor make no representation or warranty with respect to any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company or the Guarantor in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through a Representative expressly for use in the Time of Sale Information. No statement of material fact included in the Prospectus has been omitted from the Time of Sale Information and no statement of material fact included in the Time of Sale Information that is required to be included in the Prospectus has been omitted therefrom.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.* The Company and the Guarantor (including their agents and representatives, other than the Underwriters in their capacity as such) have not prepared, made, used, authorized, approved or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, authorize, approve or refer to, any "<u>written communication</u>" (as defined in Rule 405) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Securities (each such communication by the Company and the Guarantor or their agents and representatives (other than a communication referred to in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below) an "<u>Issuer Free Writing Prospectus</u>"), unless it obtains the prior consent of the Representatives (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) other than (i) any document not constituting a prospectus pursuant to Section 2(a)(10)(a) of the Securities Act or Rule 134 under the Securities Act, (ii) the Preliminary Prospectus, (iii) the Prospectus, (iv) the documents listed in <u>Annex A</u> hereto, including the Pricing Term Sheet in <u>Annex B</u> hereto (the "<u>Pricing Term Sheet</u>"), which constitute part of the Time of Sale Information and (v) any electronic road show or other written communications, in each case furnished to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters for review before use, authorization or approval thereof (and which will not be used, authorized or approved if reasonably objected to by the Representatives). Each such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus complies in all material respects with the Securities Act, has been or will be (within the time period specified in Rule 433) filed in accordance with the

------

Securities Act (to the extent required thereby) and, when taken together with the Preliminary Prospectus filed prior to the first use of such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, at the Time of Sale, did not, and at the Closing Date will not, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u> that the Company and the Guarantor make no representation or warranty with respect to any statements or omissions made in each such Issuer Free Writing Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company or the Guarantor in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through a Representative expressly for use in any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Registration Statement and Prospectus.* The Registration Statement is an "<u>automatic shelf registration statement</u>" as defined under Rule 405 that has been filed with the Commission not earlier than three years prior to the date hereof. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued by the Commission and no proceeding for that purpose or pursuant to Section 8A of the Securities Act has been instituted or is pending, or to the knowledge of the Company, is contemplated by the Commission; as of the applicable effective date of the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto, the Registration Statement complied in all material respects with the Securities Act and did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and as of the date of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto and as of the Closing Date, the Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u> that the Company makes no representation or warranty with respect to (i) that part of the Registration Statement that constitutes the Statement of Eligibility and Qualification (Form T-1) of the Trustee under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (the "<u>Trust Indenture Act</u>") or (ii) any statements or omissions made in reliance upon and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter furnished to the Company or the Guarantor in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through a Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Incorporated Documents.* The documents of the Company (including as successor issuer of the Guarantor) and its subsidiaries incorporated by reference in each of the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus (the "<u>Incorporated Documents</u>"), when they became effective or were filed with the Commission, as the case may be, complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act, and no such Incorporated Document, when it became effective or was filed with the Commission, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and any further documents of the Company and its subsidiaries so filed and incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus after the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of the offering of the Securities, when such documents become effective or are filed with the Commission, as the case may be, will conform in all material respects to the requirements of the Exchange Act and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Financial Statements.* The historical financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information or the Prospectus present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company and its subsidiaries at the respective dates and for the respective periods to which they apply; such historical financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied, except as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus; the selected financial data and the summary historical financial information of the Company included in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus present fairly the information shown therein and have been compiled on a basis consistent with that of the audited financial statements of the Company incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus. The interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus fairly presents the information called for in all material respects and has been prepared in accordance with the Commission's rules and guidelines applicable thereto.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) *No Material Adverse Change.* Except as contemplated in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, or reflected therein by the filing of any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing or any Incorporated Document prior to the date of this Agreement, since the date of the most recent consolidated financial statements of the Company included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus, unless the Company has notified the Representatives as provided in Section 4(e) of this Agreement, there has not been any material adverse change in the consolidated financial condition or earnings of the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one enterprise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) *Organization and Good Standing.* The Company and the Guarantor are validly existing corporations in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and have full corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate their properties and to conduct their business as presently conducted and as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus; and the Company and the Guarantor are duly qualified as foreign corporations to transact business and are in good standing in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is required whether by reason of the ownership or leasing of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure to so qualify would not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated financial condition or earnings of the Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) *The Indenture.* The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the Guarantor and is the legal, valid and binding agreement of the Company and the Guarantor enforceable against the Company and the Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally or by equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) relating to enforceability (collectively, the "<u>Enforceability Exceptions</u>"). The Indenture has been duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) *The Securities and the Guarantee*. The Securities have been duly authorized by the Company and, when duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered as provided in the Indenture and paid for as provided herein, will be the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture. The Guarantee has been duly authorized by the Guarantor and, assuming that the Securities have been duly executed, authenticated, issued and delivered by the Company as provided in the Indenture and paid for as provided herein, will be the valid and legally binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms, subject to the Enforceability Exceptions, and will be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

In case any action, suit or proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation or proceeding) shall be brought against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company or the Guarantor, with respect to which indemnity may be sought against any Underwriter pursuant to paragraph (b) above, such Underwriter shall have the rights and duties given to the Company by the first paragraph of this paragraph (c), and the Company, the Guarantor, their respective directors and officers and any such controlling person shall have the rights and duties given to the Underwriters by the first paragraph of this paragraph (c); <u>provided</u> that, in the event that the Company, the Guarantor or any such director, officer or controlling person shall have the right to employ, and shall have elected to employ, separate counsel at the expense of such Underwriter under the circumstances set forth in this paragraph (c), any such counsel shall be designated in writing by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Contribution.* In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in paragraphs (a) or (b) above, as the case may be, is for any reason held to be unenforceable with respect to the indemnified parties although applicable in accordance with its terms, the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required pursuant to paragraph (c) above or pursuant to the last sentence of this paragraph (d), then the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters shall contribute to such aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantor on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the sale of the Securities received by the Company (before deducting expenses) bear to the total commissions or other compensation or remuneration received by the Underwriters in respect thereof. 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, the Guarantor or the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no Underwriter shall be required

------

to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities purchased by it 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 Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this paragraph (d) are several and not joint, and shall be in proportion to the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in the Underwriting Agreement. For purposes of this paragraph (d), each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each respective director of the Company and the Guarantor, each respective officer of the Company and the Guarantor who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Guarantor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company and the Guarantor. Any party entitled to contribution pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph (d), will, promptly after receipt of notice of commencement of any action, suit or proceeding against such party in respect of which a claim for contribution may be made against another party or parties under this paragraph (d), notify such party or parties from whom contribution may be sought, but the omission to so notify such party or parties shall not relieve the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought from any obligation it or they may have under this paragraph (d), except to the extent that the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought have been materially prejudiced through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses by such failure; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the failure to so notify the party or parties from whom contribution may be sought shall not relieve such party or parties from any obligation that it or they may have otherwise than under this paragraph (d); and <u>provided</u>, <u>further</u>, that such notice need not be given if such party entitled to contribution hereunder has previously given notice pursuant to paragraph (c) above with respect to the same action, suit or proceeding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. <u>Effectiveness of Agreement</u>. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. <u>Termination</u>. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and on or prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on the New York Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company or the Guarantor shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market (other than pursuant to a request by the Company or the Guarantor with respect to an announcement by the Company or the Guarantor of certain information not constituting a material adverse change, since the date of this Agreement, in the consolidated financial condition or earnings of the Company and its subsidiaries, considered as one enterprise); (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement, the Time of Sale Information and the Prospectus.

------

In the event of any such termination, no party will have any liability to any other party hereto, except that (i) the provisions set forth in Sections 2(e), 7, 18(c) and 18(d) hereof shall remain in effect, and (ii) if this Agreement is terminated by the Underwriters in accordance with the provisions of Section 9(ii) hereof, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriters for all of their out-of-pocket expenses, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Underwriters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. <u>Defaulting Underwriter</u>. If one or more of the Underwriters shall fail on the Closing Date to purchase the Securities which it or they are obligated to purchase under this Agreement (the "<u>Defaulted Securities</u>"), the Representatives shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or any other underwriters satisfactory to the Company, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulted Securities in such amounts as may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if, however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within such 24- hour period, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) if the aggregate principal amount of the Defaulted Securities does not exceed 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased hereunder, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, severally and not jointly, to purchase the full amount thereof in the respective proportions that their respective underwriting obligations hereunder bear to the underwriting obligations of all non-defaulting Underwriters, or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if the aggregate principal amount of the Defaulted Securities exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased hereunder, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 10 shall relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of its default. In the event of any such default which does not result in a termination of this Agreement, the Representatives or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. <u>Payment of Expenses</u>*.* The Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of its obligations under this Agreement, including: (i) the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement (including financial statements and exhibits) as originally filed and of each amendment thereto and any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus and each Preliminary Prospectus, and any amendments or supplements to any of the foregoing and all Incorporated Documents, (ii) the filing and delivery to the Underwriters of this Agreement, the Indenture and such other documents as may be required in connection with the offering, purchase, sale and delivery of the Securities, (iii) the preparation, issuance and delivery of the Securities to the Underwriters, (iv) the fees and disbursements of the Company's counsel, accountants and other advisors or agents (including transfer agents, paying agents, exchange rate agents and registrars), as well as the fees and disbursements of the Trustee and its counsel and DTC, (v) the qualification of the Securities under state securities laws or the applicable laws of any foreign jurisdiction in which the Securities are offered in accordance with the provisions of Section 4(f) hereof, including filing fees, (vi) the printing and delivery to the Underwriters of copies of each Preliminary Prospectus, any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, the Prospectus, and any amendments or supplements to any of the foregoing (vii) any fees charged by nationally recognized statistical

------

rating organizations for the rating of the Securities, and (viii) the fees and expenses incurred with respect to the listing of the Securities on any securities exchange. It is understood, however, that except as provided in this Section 11 and in Sections 6, 7 and 9 hereof, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses relating to the offering of the Securities, including the fees of their counsel, transfer taxes on resale of any of the Securities, and any advertising expenses connected with any offers that they make.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. <u>Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement</u>. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company, the Guarantor and the Underwriters and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to herein, and the affiliates of each Underwriter referred to in Section 7 hereof. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Underwriters, the Company and the Guarantor and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Section 7 and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained in this Agreement. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions of this Agreement are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. <u>Survival</u>. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in certificates of officers of the Company and the Guarantor submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or controlling person referred to in Section 7, or by or on behalf of the Company or the Guarantor, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. <u>Certain Defined Terms</u>.

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;16. <u>Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes</u>.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

"<u>U.S. Special Resolution Regime</u>" means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (ii) Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder.

&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;(a) The Notes shall be substantially in the form of <u>Exhibit A</u> attached hereto, which is incorporated by reference herein.

&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;(b) On the date hereof, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver initial notes in the form of Global Notes (as defined below) that (i) shall be registered in the name of the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary and (ii) shall be delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary, pursuant to the Depositary's instructions, or held by the Trustee as Global Note Custodian (the "<u>Global Note Custodian</u>").

&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;(c) The aggregate principal amount of each Global Note may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee, as Global Note Custodian.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) **Terms**. The terms of the Notes shall be as follows and as set forth in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>, and the terms and provisions set forth in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u> are hereby incorporated by reference in, and made a part of, this Officer's Certificate as if set forth in full herein; *provided* that, in the event of any conflict between the terms set forth in this Officer's Certificate or the Indenture and the terms set forth in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>, the terms set forth in such form of Note shall govern:

------

&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;(a) **Title**. The title of the series of Securities is the "Floating Rate Notes due 2029" (the "<u>Notes</u>").

&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;(b) **Aggregate Principal Amount; Additional Notes**. The initial aggregate principal amount of the Notes which may be authenticated and delivered pursuant to the Indenture (except for Notes (i) authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Sections 2.8, 2.9, 2.11, 3.6 and 9.5 of the Indenture, or (ii) which pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Indenture, are deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered) is $500,000,000. The Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes ("<u>Additional Notes</u>") ranking *pari passu* with, and with the same terms and provisions as, the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date (as defined below) (except for the date of original issuance, and, if applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue, the first interest payment date, the offering and sale prices thereof and restrictions on transfer); *provided* that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP and ISIN. Any such Additional Notes, together with the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date, will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture and will vote together as a single class on all matters to be voted on by the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture.

&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;(c) **Registered Securities in Definitive or Book-Entry Form; Global Notes; Depositary**. The initial Depositary for the Global Notes shall be The Depository Trust Company. Notes will be issued in fully-registered, certificated form registered in the names of Persons other than the Depositary or its nominee only if (i) the Depositary's book-entry only system ceases to exist, (ii) the Company determines that the Depositary is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as depositary with respect to the Notes and the Company is unable to locate a qualified successor, (iii) the Company, at its option, elects to terminate the record book-entry system through the Depositary with respect to all or a portion of the Notes, (iv) required by law or (v) an Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

&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;(d) **Maturity Date**. The Notes will mature on March 14, 2029 (the "<u>Maturity Date</u>").

&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;(e) **Rate of Interest; Interest Payment Dates; Regular Record Dates; Accrual of Interest**.

------

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) **Rate of Interest; Interest Payment Dates; Persons to Whom Interest Is Payable**. The Notes will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to a benchmark rate, which will initially be Compounded SOFR, plus 47 basis points, accruing from February 12, 2026 (the "<u>Original Issue Date</u>") or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, reset quarterly, as described in the Form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>. The calculation of the interest rate on the Notes will be made by Citibank, N.A. (or any successor thereto) as "calculation agent". The Company will pay interest on the Notes quarterly in arrears on March 14, June 14, September 14 and December 14 of each year (each, an "<u>Interest Payment Date</u>"), commencing on June 14, 2026, subject to adjustment if any such date is not a Business Day (as defined below), and at maturity, as described in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>, to the Persons in whose names the Notes (or one or more Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on February 27, May 30, August 30 or November 29, as the case may be, immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date (each, a "<u>Regular Record Date</u>") (whether or not any such Regular Record Date is a Business Day); *provided*, *however*, that interest payable at maturity of the Notes shall be payable to the persons to whom principal shall be payable. The amount of interest accrued and payable on the Notes for each Interest Period (as defined in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>) will be equal to the product of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Notes multiplied by (ii) the product of (a) the Interest Rate (as defined in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>) for the relevant Interest Period multiplied by (b) the quotient of the actual number of calendar days in such Interest Period divided by 360. Compounded SOFR will be calculated and, if necessary, replaced as set forth in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u>.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) **Accrual of Interest**. The Notes will bear interest from the Original Issue Date at the rate per annum set forth above, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. Each interest payment shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or duly provided for on the Notes) to but excluding the Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be.

&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;(f) **Place of Payment; Registration of Transfer and Exchange; Notices to Company**.

New York, New York is a Place of Payment for the Notes. The Company will maintain a Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar, transfer agent and authenticating agent for the

------

Notes in such Place of Payment, and Citibank, N.A.

Any wire transfer instructions received by a Paying Agent shall remain in effect until revoked by the applicable registered Holder.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) **Registration of Exchange and Transfer**. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the register of Securities, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at an office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in any Place of Payment for the Notes, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent in such Place of Payment, and at such additional offices or agencies as the Company may designate. Ownership of beneficial interests in Global Notes will be shown on, and the transfer of those beneficial interests will be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary and its direct and indirect participants. Owners of beneficial interests in Global Notes will not be considered the Holders of such Notes under the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described in the form of Note attached hereto as <u>Exhibit A</u> where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

&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;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) **Notices to Company**.

Floating Rate Notes due 2029

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company (which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to) issued and to be issued pursuant to such Indenture and designated by the Company as its Floating Rate Notes due 2029 (the "Notes"). The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities which may be issued thereunder.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 20, 2019 (herein called the "Indenture"), among the Company, TWDC Enterprises 18 Corp., a Delaware Corporation, as guarantor and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, each Guarantor, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes ("Additional Notes") ranking *pari passu* with, and with the same terms and provisions as, the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date (except for the date of original issuance, and, if applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue, the first interest payment date, the offering and sale prices thereof and restrictions on transfer); *provided* that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP and ISIN. Any such Additional Notes, together with the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date, will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture and will vote together as a single class on all matters to be voted on by the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture.

The Notes will bear interest for each Interest Period (as defined below) at a rate determined by the Calculation Agent (as defined below). The Calculation Agent is Citibank, N.A. until such time as the Company appoints a successor calculation agent (the "Calculation Agent"). The Interest Rate on the Notes for a particular Interest Period will be a per annum rate equal to the Benchmark, which will initially be Compounded SOFR, as determined on the Interest Determination Date (as defined below), plus 47 basis points (the "spread"). The "Interest Determination Date" for an Interest Period will be the date that is two U.S. Government Securities Business Days (as defined below) before the applicable Interest Payment Date. Promptly upon determination, the Calculation Agent will inform the Trustee and the Company, or as set forth herein, the Company or its designee (which may be an independent financial advisor or such other designee of the Company (any of such entities, a "Designee")) will inform

------

the Trustee, of the Interest Rate for such Interest Period. Absent manifest error, the determination of the Interest Rate by the Calculation Agent, or as set forth herein, by the Company or the Designee, shall be binding and conclusive on the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee and the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the Calculation Agent, Trustee or Paying Agent be the Designee. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a date that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day unless such next succeeding Business Day would be in the following month, in which case, the Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and interest may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on that payment shall accrue for the period from and after such maturity. Interest on the Notes will be paid to but excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in an Interest Period and a 360-day year.

None of the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of Compounded SOFR (or any other Benchmark (as defined below)), or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any Benchmark Transition Event (as defined below) or related Benchmark Replacement Date (as defined below), (ii) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, (iii) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment (as defined herein), or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes (as defined below) are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, Interest Payment Determination Dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor Benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, the Paying Agent and Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or the Designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company's direction.

Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company or the Designee in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement, including any determination with respect to a rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, may be made in the Company or the Designee's sole discretion and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, will become effective without consent from any other party. None of the Trustee, the Calculation Agent or the Paying Agent will have any liability for any determination made by or on behalf of the Company or the Designee in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement.

None of the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth herein as a result of the unavailability of Compounded SOFR or other applicable Benchmark Replacement, including as

------

a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms hereof and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Company's actions or omissions or for those of the Designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Company or the Designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the Company's performance or that of the Designee.

As further described herein, as calculated on each Interest Payment Determination Date relating to the applicable Interest Payment Date, the amount of interest accrued and payable on the Notes for each Interest Period will be equal to the product of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Notes multiplied by (ii) the product of (a) the Interest Rate for the relevant Interest Period multiplied by (b) the quotient of the actual number of calendar days in such Interest Period divided by 360.

The "Interest Rate" for each Interest Period will be equal to Compounded SOFR plus the spread. ''Compounded SOFR'' will be determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following formula (and the resulting percentage will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, *e.g.*, 9.753973% (or .09753973) being rounded down to 9.75397% (or .0975397) and 9.753978% (or .09753978) being rounded up to 9.75398% (or .0975398)):

![LOGO](g80474snap1.jpg)

where:

''*SOFR IndexStart*'' is the SOFR Index value for the day which is two U.S. Government Securities Business Days preceding the first date of the relevant Interest Period;

''*SOFR IndexEnd*'' is the SOFR Index value for the day which is two U.S. Government Securities Business Days preceding the Interest Payment Date relating to such Interest Period; and

''*dc*'' is the number of calendar days in the applicable Observation Period.

For purposes of determining Compounded SOFR, ''SOFR Index'' means, with respect to any U.S. Government Securities Business Day:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the SOFR Index published for such U.S. Government Securities Business Day as such value appears on the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York's Website at 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on such U.S. Government Securities Business Day (the ''SOFR Index Determination Time'') *;* or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if the SOFR Index specified in (1) above does not so appear, unless both a Benchmark Transition Event and
its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to SOFR, then Compounded SOFR shall be the rate determined as set forth below.

------

For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Compounded SOFR shall exclude the spread.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if the Company or the Designee determines on or prior to the relevant Reference Time that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to determining Compounded SOFR, then the benchmark replacement provisions set forth below shall thereafter apply to all determinations of the Interest Rate.

For the avoidance of doubt, in accordance with the following two paragraphs, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the interest payable for each Interest Period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of the Benchmark Replacement (as defined below) and the spread.

If a SOFR IndexStart or SOFR IndexEnd is not published on the associated Interest Payment Determination Date and a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have not occurred with respect to SOFR, ''*Compounded SOFR*'' means, for the applicable Interest Period for which such index is not available, the rate of return on a daily compounded interest investment calculated in accordance with the formula for SOFR Averages, and definitions required for such formula, published on the website of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, at https://www.newyorkfed.org/markets/treasury-repo-reference-rates-information, or any successor source. For the purposes of this paragraph, references in the SOFR Averages compounding formula and related definitions to ''calculation period'' shall be replaced with ''Observation Period'' and the words ''that is, 30-, 90-, or 180- calendar days'' shall be removed. If the daily SOFR (''SOFRi'') does not so appear for any day, ''i'' in the Observation Period, SOFRi for such day ''i'' shall be SOFR published in respect of the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which SOFR was published on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York's Website.

If the Company or the Designee determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred on or prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Notes in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates.

In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Company (or the Designee) will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time.

Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company (or the Designee) pursuant to this paragraph and the two preceding paragraphs, including any determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, will be made in the Company's (or the Designee's) sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, shall become effective without consent from the Holders of the Notes or any other party.

''*Benchmark*'' means, initially, Compounded SOFR; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to Compounded SOFR or the then-current Benchmark, then ''Benchmark'' means the applicable Benchmark Replacement.

------

''*Benchmark Replacement*'' means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company (or the Designee) as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant
Governmental Body as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the sum of: (a) the ISDA Fallback Rate and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by the Company (or the Designee) as
the replacement for the then-current Benchmark giving due consideration to any industry-accepted rate of interest as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes at such time and (b) the Benchmark
Replacement Adjustment.

''*Benchmark Replacement Adjustment*'' means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company (or the Designee) as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, (which may be a positive
or negative value or zero) that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA Fallback Rate, then the ISDA
Fallback Adjustment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Company
(or the Designee) giving due consideration to any industry-accepted spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of the then-current Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark
Replacement for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes at such time.

''*Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes*'' means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definitions of ''Interest Period'' and ''Observation Period,'' the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, the rounding of amounts or tenors and other administrative matters) that the Company (or the Designee) decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption of such Benchmark Replacement in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Company (or the Designee) decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Company (or the Designee) determines that no market practice for use of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner as the Company (or the Designee) determines is reasonably necessary).

------

''*Benchmark Replacement Date*'' means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of ''Benchmark Transition
Event,'' the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide the
Benchmark; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the case of clause (3) of the definition of ''Benchmark Transition Event,'' the
date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination.

For the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of the definitions of Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Event, references to Benchmark also include any reference rate underlying such Benchmark.

''*Benchmark Transition Event*'' means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Benchmark announcing
that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the
Benchmark, the central bank for the currency of the Benchmark, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark, a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark or a court or an
entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for the Benchmark, which states that the administrator of the Benchmark has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at
the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the
Benchmark announcing that the Benchmark is no longer representative.

''*Interest Payment Determination Date*'' is the date that is two U.S. Government Securities Business Days before each Interest Payment Date.

"*Interest Period*" means (i) the period from, and including, the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, with respect to the initial Interest Period only, from and including February 12, 2026) to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or (ii) in the case of the last such period, from, and including the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date.

The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities which may be issued thereunder.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 20, 2019 (herein called the "Indenture"), among the Company, TWDC Enterprises 18 Corp., a Delaware Corporation, as guarantor and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, each Guarantor, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

*plus*, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate applicable to such redemption shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as "Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15" (or any successor designation or publication) ("<u>H.15</u>") under the caption "U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal" (or any successor caption or heading) ("<u>H.15 TCM</u>"). In determining the applicable Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Maturity Date (the "Remaining Life"); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Maturity Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. 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 on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate applicable to such redemption based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Maturity Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Maturity Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Maturity Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Maturity Date and one with a maturity date following the Maturity Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Maturity Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Maturity Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall 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.

------

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 have no duty to determine, or verify the Company's calculations of, the Redemption Price.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date for the Notes shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes (or one or more Predecessor Securities) of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates referred to above, all as provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, interest on the Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption of the Notes 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 the Notes to be redeemed. All notices of redemption shall state, among other things, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price or the manner in which the Redemption Price will be calculated and the place or places that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes to be redeemed. Any redemption or notice may, at the Company's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at the Company's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions precedent included at the Company's discretion shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company) or the Redemption Date may not occur and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions precedent included at the Company's discretion shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company).

In the case of a partial redemption of Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made in accordance with applicable depositary procedures (or, in case of Notes in definitive form, pro rata by the Trustee). No Note 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 such Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of such Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note (or, in the case of global certificates, will be reduced in accordance with the policies and procedures of DTC (or another depositary)). 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.

For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of the Notes shall relate, in the case of any Notes redeemed or to be redeemed by the Company only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Notes which has been or is to be so redeemed.

------

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared or, in certain cases, automatically may become due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and any Guarantor and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company, any Guarantor and the Trustee with the written consent of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities voting as a single class, or (ii) in case less than all of the several series of Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, the Securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series to, by written consent, waive compliance by the Company or any Guarantor with any provision of the Indenture (but solely insofar as such provision relates to the Securities of such series) or any provision of the Securities of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note 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 Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article VIII of the Indenture and the guarantee release provisions in Article XII of the Indenture, of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligations of the Company or any Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note 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 Notes is registrable in the register of Securities, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at an office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in any Place of Payment for the Notes, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent in such Place of Payment, and at such additional offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the applicable Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. Citibank, N.A., acting through its Corporate Trust Office currently located at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10013, and solely for the purpose of the transfer, surrender, exchange or presentation of Notes for final payment, located at 480 Washington Boulevard, 16th Floor, Jersey City, New Jersey 07310, Attention: Securities Window – The Walt Disney Company, will initially act as the Company's Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes in The City of New York, New York, U.S.A.

------

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or any Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require, subject to certain exceptions specified in the Indenture, payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Note 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 Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Walt Disney Company, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the "Company"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum of dollars ($) on March 14, 2031 (the "Maturity Date") and to pay interest thereon from February 12, 2026 (the "Original Issue Date") or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears in equal installments on March 14 and September 14 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing on September 14, 2026, at the rate of 4.000% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

**TRUSTEE'S CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION** 

This is one of the Notes of the series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

Dated: February<u> </u>, 2026

**CITIBANK, N.A.**, not in its individual capacity but solely in its capacity as Trustee.

By:     <br> Authorized Signatory

4.000% Notes due 2031

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company (which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to) issued and to be issued pursuant to such Indenture and designated by the Company as its 4.000% Notes due 2031 (the "Notes"). The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities which may be issued thereunder.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 20, 2019 (herein called the "Indenture"), among the Company, TWDC Enterprises 18 Corp., a Delaware Corporation, as guarantor and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, each Guarantor, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes ("Additional Notes") ranking *pari passu* with, and with the same terms and provisions as, the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date (except for the date of original issuance, and, if applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue, the first interest payment date, the offering and sale prices thereof and restrictions on transfer); *provided* that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP and ISIN. Any such Additional Notes, together with the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date, will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture and will vote together as a single class on all matters to be voted on by the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture.

The Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (the "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;(1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes discounted to the redemption date (the "Redemption Date") on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 10 basis points, less (b) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

------

*plus*, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate applicable to such redemption shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as "Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15" (or any successor designation or publication) ("<u>H.15</u>") under the caption "U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal" (or any successor caption or heading) ("<u>H.15 TCM</u>"). In determining the applicable Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Maturity Date (the "Remaining Life"); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Maturity Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. 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 on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate applicable to such redemption based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Maturity Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Maturity Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Maturity Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Maturity Date and one with a maturity date following the Maturity Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Maturity Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Maturity Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall 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.

------

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 have no duty to determine, or verify the Company's calculations of, the Redemption Price.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date for the Notes shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes (or one or more Predecessor Securities) of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates referred to above, all as provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, interest on the Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption of the Notes 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 the Notes to be redeemed. All notices of redemption shall state, among other things, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price or the manner in which the Redemption Price will be calculated and the place or places that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes to be redeemed. Any redemption or notice may, at the Company's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at the Company's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions precedent included at the Company's discretion shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company) or the Redemption Date may not occur and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions precedent included at the Company's discretion shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company).

In the case of a partial redemption of Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made in accordance with applicable depositary procedures (or, in case of Notes in definitive form, pro rata by the Trustee). No Note 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 such Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of such Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note (or, in the case of global certificates, will be reduced in accordance with the policies and procedures of DTC (or another depositary)). 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.

For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of the Notes shall relate, in the case of any Notes redeemed or to be redeemed by the Company only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Notes which has been or is to be so redeemed.

------

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared or, in certain cases, automatically may become due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and any Guarantor and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company, any Guarantor and the Trustee with the written consent of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities voting as a single class, or (ii) in case less than all of the several series of Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, the Securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series to, by written consent, waive compliance by the Company or any Guarantor with any provision of the Indenture (but solely insofar as such provision relates to the Securities of such series) or any provision of the Securities of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note 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 Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article VIII of the Indenture and the guarantee release provisions in Article XII of the Indenture, of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligations of the Company or any Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note 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 Notes is registrable in the register of Securities, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at an office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in any Place of Payment for the Notes, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Paying Agent in such Place of Payment, and at such additional offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the applicable Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. Citibank, N.A., acting through its Corporate Trust Office currently located at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, NY 10013, and solely for the purpose of the transfer, surrender, exchange or presentation of Notes for final payment, located at 480 Washington Boulevard, 16th Floor, Jersey City, New Jersey 07310, Attention: Securities Window – The Walt Disney Company, will initially act as the Company's Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes in The City of New York, New York, U.S.A.

------

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or any Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require, subject to certain exceptions specified in the Indenture, payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Note 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 Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Additional abbreviations may also be used though not in the above list.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused a CUSIP number and ISIN to be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

THE INDENTURE (INCLUDING THE GUARANTEES) AND THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, AS APPLIED TO CONTRACTS MADE AND PERFORMED WITHIN THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.

4.625% Notes due 2036

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company (which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to) issued and to be issued pursuant to such Indenture and designated by the Company as its 4.625% Notes due 2036 (the "Notes"). The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities which may be issued thereunder.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of March 20, 2019 (herein called the "Indenture"), among the Company, TWDC Enterprises 18 Corp., a Delaware Corporation, as guarantor and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, each Guarantor, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 principal amount and integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of Holders of the Notes, issue additional Notes ("Additional Notes") ranking *pari passu* with, and with the same terms and provisions as, the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date (except for the date of original issuance, and, if applicable, the date from which interest shall accrue, the first interest payment date, the offering and sale prices thereof and restrictions on transfer); *provided* that if the Additional Notes are not fungible with the Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Additional Notes will have a separate CUSIP and ISIN. Any such Additional Notes, together with the Notes originally issued on the Original Issue Date, will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture and will vote together as a single class on all matters to be voted on by the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture.

The Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (the "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;(1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes discounted to the redemption date (the "Redemption Date") on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 10 basis points, less (b) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

------

*plus*, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate applicable to such redemption shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as "Selected Interest Rates (Daily) - H.15" (or any successor designation or publication) ("<u>H.15</u>") under the caption "U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal" (or any successor caption or heading) ("<u>H.15 TCM</u>"). In determining the applicable Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Maturity Date (the "Remaining Life"); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields – one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life – and shall interpolate to the Maturity Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. 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 on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate applicable to such redemption based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Maturity Date. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Maturity Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Maturity Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Maturity Date and one with a maturity date following the Maturity Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Maturity Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Maturity Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company shall 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.

------

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 have no duty to determine, or verify the Company's calculations of, the Redemption Price.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a Redemption Date for the Notes shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes (or one or more Predecessor Securities) of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates referred to above, all as provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, interest on the Notes called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption of the Notes 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 the Notes to be redeemed. All notices of redemption shall state, among other things, the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price or the manner in which the Redemption Price will be calculated and the place or places that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes to be redeemed. Any redemption or notice may, at the Company's discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent and, at the Company's discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions precedent included at the Company's discretion shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company) or the Redemption Date may not occur and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions precedent included at the Company's discretion shall not have been satisfied (or waived by the Company).

In the case of a partial redemption of Notes, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made in accordance with applicable depositary procedures (or, in case of Notes in definitive form, pro rata by the Trustee). No Note 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 such Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of such Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note (or, in the case of global certificates, will be reduced in accordance with the policies and procedures of DTC (or another depositary)). 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.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for The Walt Disney Company, a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Company</u>"), and the Guarantor (as defined below), in connection with the public offering and sale by the Company of $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Floating Rate Notes due 2029 (the "<u>Floating Rate Notes</u>"), $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.750% Notes due 2029 (the "<u>2029 Notes</u>"), $1,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.000% Notes due 2031 (the "<u>2031 Notes</u>") and $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 4.625% Notes due 2036 (the "<u>2036 Notes</u>" and, together with the Floating Rate Notes, the 2029 Notes and the 2031 Notes, the "<u>Notes</u>") to be issued pursuant to the Indenture dated as of March 20, 2019 (the "<u>Indenture</u>"), among the Company, the Guarantor and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (the "<u>Trustee</u>"). The Notes will be unconditionally guaranteed (the "<u>Guarantee</u>") by TWDC Enterprises 18 Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "<u>Guarantor</u>").

In that connection, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion, including: (a) the Indenture; (b) the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-289917) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") on August 28, 2025 (the "<u>Registration Statement</u>"), with respect to registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "<u>Securities Act</u>") of an unlimited aggregate amount of various securities of the Company and the Guarantor, to be issued from time to time by the Company and the Guarantor; (c) the related Prospectus dated August 28, 2025 (together with the documents incorporated therein by reference, the "<u>Basic Prospectus</u>"); (d) the Prospectus Supplement dated February 10, 2026, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) and Rule 430B of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (together with the Basic Prospectus, the "<u>Prospectus"</u>); and (e) specimen global certificates for the Notes.

In expressing the opinions set forth herein, we have assumed, with your consent and without independent investigation or verification, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or copies. We also have assumed, with your consent, that the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and represents a legal, valid and binding obligation of, the Trustee.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth herein, we are of opinion that when the Notes are authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered and paid for (i) the Notes will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and entitled to the benefits of the Indenture (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) the Guarantee will constitute a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Guarantor, enforceable against the Guarantor in accordance with its terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally from time to time in effect and to general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as Exhibit 5.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 12, 2026, and to the incorporation by reference of this opinion into the Registration Statement. We also consent to the reference to our firm under the caption "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus Supplement dated February 10, 2026 forming a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.
