    % SENIOR NOTE, DUE             

 RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC., a Florida corporation (herein called the “Company,” which term

                     DOLLARS1 on

currency, additional provisions regarding paying and other agents and additional provisions regarding the calculation and payment of such currency, set forth therein. 

	2 	 This form provides for Notes that shall mature only on a specified date. If the maturity of Notes of a series may be renewed at the option of the
holder, or extended at the option of the Company, the form, as used, shall be modified to provide for additional terms relating to such renewal or extension, as the case may be, including the period or periods for which the maturity may be renewed

amount at the rate of     % per
annum,3 until payment of such principal amount has been
made or duly provided for, semi-annually4 in arrears on
                     and
                     of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date,
commencing on                     , and at the stated maturity or earlier redemption or repayment (the “Maturity Date”). If the
Company shall default in the payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, then this Note shall bear interest from the next preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid on the Notes, from
                     (the “Original Issue Date”). 

Interest on this Note shall accrue from the Original Issue Date until the principal amount is paid or duly provided
for. Interest (including payments for partial periods) shall be computed on the basis of a [360-day year of twelve 30-day months]. Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date shall include interest accrued from,
and including, the preceding 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) to, but excluding, such Interest
Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If the Maturity Date or any Interest Payment Date falls on a day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), principal of or interest payable with respect to the Maturity Date or such
Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the succeeding Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force
and effect as if made on the Maturity Date or such Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of that postponement. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall
be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes evidencing all or a portion of the same debt as this Note) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such Interest Payment Date, whether or
not a Business Day. As long as this Note is in book-entry only form, the regular record date shall be the close of business on the Business Day next preceding such Interest Payment Date. If, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Notes are no
longer represented by a global note, the record date shall be the close of business on [the last day of the calendar month preceding an Interest Payment Date][the fifteenth day of the calendar month in which the Interest Payment Date occurs].
“Business Day” means any weekday that is not a legal holiday in New York, New York, St. Petersburg, Florida[, or any other place of payment with respect to this Note and that is not a day on which banking institutions in those cities are
authorized or required by law or regulation to be closed]. [“Business Day” also means, with respect to Notes denominated in euro, a day on which the TransEuropean Real- Time Gross-Settlement Express Transfer, or “TARGET,” System
is in place.]5 

 

	3 	 This form provides for interest at a fixed rate. The form, as used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for interest at a variable rate or
rates, with the method of determining such rate set forth therein. 

	4 	 This form provides for semi-annual interest payments. The form, as used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for annual, quarterly, or other
periodic interest payments. 

	5 	 This form provides a definition of Business Day for U.S. issuances, with an alternate definition for euro-denominated issuances. The Business Day
definition may be modified to provide for issuances in other countries or currencies, as required.

 The principal of and interest on this Note are payable in immediately
available funds in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, at the office or agency of the Company designated as provided in the Indenture. However, interest may be
paid, at the option of the Company, by check mailed to the person entitled thereto at his address last appearing on the registry books of the Company relating to the Notes. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, payments of principal of and
interest payable on the Maturity Date shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated account maintained in the United States upon (i) receipt of written notice by the Issuing and Paying Agent (as described on the
reverse hereof) from the registered holder hereof not less than one Business Day prior to the due date of such principal and (ii) presentation of this Note to the Issuing and Paying Agent, at The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., 101
Barclay Street, New York, New York, 10286. Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for shall be payable as provided in such Indenture.6 
 References herein to “dollars,” “U.S. dollars,” “U.S.$,” or “$” are to the coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for the
payment of public and private debts. 
 Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse
hereof, which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication
hereon has been executed by the Trustee (as described on the reverse hereof) or by an authenticating agent on behalf of the Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under such Indenture or be valid or obligatory
for any purpose. 
  

	6 	 This form does not contemplate the offer of Notes to Non-United States persons (for United States federal income tax purposes). If Notes are offered to
Non-United States persons, the form of Note, as used, may be modified to provide for the payment of additional amounts to such Non-United States persons or, if applicable, the redemption of such Notes in lieu of payment of such additional amounts.

NOTE, DUE              
 SECTION 1. General. This
Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company unlimited in aggregate principal amount (herein called the “Notes”) issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of August 10, 2009 (herein called the
“Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, and the holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The
series of which this Note is a part also is designated as the Company’s     % Senior Notes, due
                     (herein called the “Series”), initially in the principal amount of
$            . [The amount of Notes of this Series may be increased by the Company in the future.] The Trustee initially shall act as Security Registrar, Transfer Agent,
Authenticating Agent and Issuing and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes. 
 SECTION 2. No Sinking Fund. This Note
is not subject to any sinking fund. 
 SECTION 3. Redemption and Repayment. Except in those
situations in which the Company may become obligated to pay additional amounts (as described herein), the Notes of this Series are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the holder prior to
maturity.7 

SECTION 4. Defeasance. The provisions of Article 14 of the Indenture [do not] apply to the Notes of this Series. 

SECTION 5. Payment of Additional Amounts. [Subject to the exemptions and limitations set forth below, the Company shall pay
additional amounts to the beneficial owner of this Note that is a “Non-United States person,” as defined below, in order to ensure that every net payment on such Note shall not be less, due to payment of United States withholding tax, than
the amount then otherwise due and payable. For this purpose, a “net payment” on this Note means a payment by the Company or any paying agent, including payment of principal and interest, after deduction for any present or future tax,
assessment, or other governmental charge of the United States (other than a territory or possession). These additional amounts shall constitute additional interest on this Note. 

The Company shall not be required to pay additional amounts, however, in any of the circumstances described in items (1) through
(15) below. 
  

	7 	 This form provides for Notes that are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the holder. The form, as
used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the holder, with the terms and conditions of such redemption or repayment, as the case may be, including provisions regarding
sinking funds, if applicable, redemption prices, and notice periods, set forth therein. 

  
 6 

 (1) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result
of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note: 
  

	 	(a)	having a relationship with the United States as a citizen, resident, or otherwise; 

 

	 	(b)	having had such a relationship in the past; or 

  

	 	(c)	being considered as having had such a relationship.

	 	(b)	being treated as having been present in or engaged in a trade or business in the United States in the past;

	 	(d)	having or having had a qualified business unit which has the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. 

(3) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other
governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note being or having been a: 
  

	 	(a)	personal holding company; 

  

	 	(b)	foreign personal holding company; 

  

	 	(c)	private foundation or other tax-exempt organization; 

  

	 	(d)	passive foreign investment company; 

  

	 	(e)	controlled foreign corporation; or 

  

	 	(f)	corporation which has accumulated earnings to avoid United States federal income tax. 

(4) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other
governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note owning or having owned, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of the Company’s stock
entitled to vote. 

  
 7 

 (5) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result
of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note being a bank extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business.

 For purposes of items (1) through (5) above, “beneficial owner” includes, without limitation, the holder,
and a fiduciary, settlor, partner, member, shareholder, or beneficiary of the holder if the holder is an estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company, corporation, or other entity, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust
administered by a fiduciary holder. 
 (6) Additional amounts shall not be payable to any beneficial owner of this Note that is:

 However, this exception to the obligation to pay additional amounts shall only apply to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor in relation to the fiduciary, or a beneficial owner, partner or member of
the partnership, limited liability company, or other fiscally transparent entity, would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor, partner, beneficial owner, or member received directly its beneficial
or distributive share of the payment. 
 (7) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a
result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner of this Note or any other person to comply with applicable certification, identification, documentation
or other information reporting requirements. This exception to the obligation to pay additional amounts shall apply only if compliance with such reporting requirements is required as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment or other
governmental charge by statute or regulation of the United States or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party.

withholding from a payment on this Note by the Company or any paying agent. 
 (9) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a
payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15
days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later. 

  
 8

	 	(h)	personal property tax; or 

  

	 	(i)	any similar tax, assessment, or other governmental charge. 

 (12) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any paying agent from a
payment of principal or interest on this Note if such payment can be made without such withholding by any other paying agent. 

(13) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced by any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge
that is imposed or withheld by reason of the application of section 1471 (or any successor provision) or section 1472 (or any successor provision) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any related administrative regulation or
pronouncement.

part, at any time, on giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the holders of the Notes, if the Company has or may become obliged to pay additional amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws
or regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations after the date of this Note.

 Prior to publishing any notice of redemption, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate signed by the Chief

      % SUBORDINATED NOTE, DUE
             
 RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC., a Florida
corporation (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or its registered assigns,
the principal sum of                      DOLLARS1 on
                    ,         2 (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to that date). The Company shall pay interest on such principal

  

	1 	This form provides for Notes denominated in, and principal and interest payable in, U.S. dollars. The form, as used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for
Notes denominated in, and principal and interest and other amounts, if any, payable in a foreign currency or currency unit, with the specific terms and provisions, including any limitations on the issuance of Notes in such currency, additional
provisions regarding paying and other agents and additional provisions regarding the calculation and payment of such currency, set forth therein. 

	2 	 This form provides for Notes that shall mature only on a specified date. If the maturity of Notes of a series may be renewed at the option of the
holder, or extended at the option of the Company, the form, as used, shall be modified to provide for additional terms relating to such renewal or extension, as the case may be, including the period or periods for which the maturity may be renewed
or extended, as the case may be, changes in the interest rate, if any, and requirements for notice. 

 
amount at the rate of     % per
annum,3 until payment of such principal amount has been
made or duly provided for, semi-annually4 in arrears on
                     and
                     of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date,
commencing on                     , and at the stated maturity or earlier redemption or repayment (the “Maturity Date”). If the
Company shall default in the payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, then this Note shall bear interest from the next preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid on the Notes, from
                     (the “Original Issue Date”). 

Interest on this Note shall accrue from the Original Issue Date until the principal amount is paid or duly provided
for. Interest (including payments for partial periods) shall be computed on the basis of a [360-day year of twelve 30-day months]. Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date shall include interest accrued from,
and including, the preceding 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) to, but excluding, such Interest
Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If the Maturity Date or any Interest Payment Date falls on a day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), principal of or interest payable with respect to the Maturity Date or such
Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the succeeding Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force
and effect as if made on the Maturity Date or such Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of that postponement. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall
be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes evidencing all or a portion of the same debt as this Note) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such Interest Payment Date, whether or
not a Business Day. As long as this Note is in book-entry only form, the regular record date shall be the close of business on the Business Day next preceding such Interest Payment Date. If, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Notes are no
longer represented by a global note, the record date shall be the close of business on [the last day of the calendar month preceding an Interest Payment Date][the fifteenth day of the calendar month in which the Interest Payment Date occurs].
“Business Day” means any weekday that is not a legal holiday in New York, New York, St. Petersburg, Florida[, or any other place of payment with respect to this Note and that is not a day on which banking institutions in those cities are
authorized or required by law or regulation to be closed]. [“Business Day” also means, with respect to Notes denominated in euro, a day on which the TransEuropean Real- Time Gross-Settlement Express Transfer, or “TARGET,” System
is in place.]5 

 

	3 	 This form provides for interest at a fixed rate. The form, as used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for interest at a variable rate or
rates, with the method of determining such rate set forth therein. 

	4 	 This form provides for semi-annual interest payments. The form, as used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for annual, quarterly, or other
periodic interest payments. 

	5 	 This form provides a definition of Business Day for U.S. issuances, with an alternate definition for euro-denominated issuances. The Business Day
definition may be modified to provide for issuances in other countries or currencies, as required.

 The principal of and interest on this Note are payable in immediately available funds in
such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, at the office or agency of the Company designated as provided in the Indenture. However, interest may be paid, at the
option of the Company, by check mailed to the person entitled thereto at his address last appearing on the registry books of the Company relating to the Notes. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, payments of principal of and interest payable on
the Maturity Date shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated account maintained in the United States upon (i) receipt of written notice by the Issuing and Paying Agent (as described on the reverse hereof) from
the registered holder hereof not less than one Business Day prior to the due date of such principal and (ii) presentation of this Note to the Issuing and Paying Agent, at The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., 101 Barclay Street, New
York, New York, 10286. Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for shall be payable as provided in such
Indenture. 6  

References herein to “dollars,” “U.S. dollars,” “U.S.$,” or “$” are to the coin or currency of
the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. 
 Reference is made to
the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee (as described on the reverse hereof) or by an authenticating agent on behalf of the Trustee by manual signature, this Note
shall not be entitled to any benefit under such Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. 
  

	6	This form does not contemplate the
offer of Notes to Non-United States persons (for United States federal income tax purposes). If Notes are offered to Non-United States persons, the form of Note, as used, may be modified to provide for the payment of additional amounts to such
Non-United States persons or, if applicable, the redemption of such Notes in lieu of payment of such additional amounts.

        % SUBORDINATED NOTE, DUE
             
 SECTION 1. General. This Note is one
of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company unlimited in aggregate principal amount (herein called the “Notes”) issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of August 10, 2009 (herein called the
“Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, and the holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The
series of which this Note is a part also is designated as the Company’s     % Subordinated Notes, due
                    (herein called the “Series”), initially in the principal amount of
$            . [The amount of Notes of this Series may be increased by the Company in the future.] The Trustee initially shall act as Security Registrar, Transfer Agent,
Authenticating Agent and Issuing and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes. 
 SECTION 2. Subordination. THE
INDEBTEDNESS OF THE COMPANY EVIDENCED BY THE NOTES, INCLUDING THE PRINCIPAL THEREOF AND INTEREST THEREON, IS, TO THE EXTENT AND IN THE MANNER SET FORTH IN THE INDENTURE, SUBORDINATE AND JUNIOR IN RIGHT OF PAYMENT TO ITS OBLIGATIONS TO HOLDERS OF
SENIOR INDEBTEDNESS, AS DEFINED IN THE INDENTURE, AND EACH HOLDER OF THE NOTES, BY THE ACCEPTANCE THEREOF, AGREES TO AND SHALL BE BOUND BY SUCH PROVISIONS OF THE INDENTURE. 
 SECTION 3. No Sinking Fund. This Note is not subject to any sinking fund. 

SECTION 4. Redemption and Repayment. Except in those situations in which the Company may become obligated to pay additional
amounts (as described herein), the Notes of this Series are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the holder prior to maturity. 7  
 SECTION 5. Defeasance. The provisions of Article 14 of the Indenture [do not] apply to the Notes of this Series. 
 SECTION 6. Payment of Additional Amounts. [Subject to the exemptions and limitations set forth below, the Company shall pay additional amounts to the beneficial owner of this Note that is a
“Non-United States person,” as defined below, in order to ensure that every net payment on such Note shall not be less, due to payment of United States withholding tax, than 

 

	7	 This form provides
for Notes that are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the holder. The form, as used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option
of the holder, with the terms and conditions of such redemption or repayment, as the case may be, including provisions regarding sinking funds, if applicable, redemption prices, and notice periods, set forth therein.

the amount then otherwise due and payable. For this purpose, a “net payment” on this Note means a payment by the Company or any paying agent, including payment of principal and
interest, after deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge of the United States (other than a territory or possession). These additional amounts shall constitute additional interest on this Note. 

The Company shall not be required to pay additional amounts, however, in any of the circumstances described in items (1) through
(15) below. 
 (1) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax,
assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note: 
  

	 	(a)	having a relationship with the United States as a citizen, resident, or otherwise; 

 

	 	(b)	having had such a relationship in the past; or 

  

	 	(c)	being considered as having had such a relationship. 

 (2) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the
beneficial owner of this Note: 
  

	 	(a)	being treated as present in or engaged in a trade or business in the United States; 

 

	 	(b)	being treated as having been present in or engaged in a trade or business in the United States in the past; 

 

	 	(c)	having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States; or 

  

	 	(d)	having or having had a qualified business unit which has the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. 

(3) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other
governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note being or having been a: 
  

	 	(a)	personal holding company; 

  

	 	(b)	foreign personal holding company; 

  

	 	(c)	private foundation or other tax-exempt organization; 

  

	 	(d)	passive foreign investment company; 

  

	 	(e)	controlled foreign corporation; or 

  
 7 

	 	(f)	corporation which has accumulated earnings to avoid United States federal income tax. 

(4) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other
governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note owning or having owned, actually or constructively, 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of the Company’s stock
entitled to vote. 
 (5) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax,
assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note being a bank extending credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business. 

For purposes of items (1) through (5) above, “beneficial owner” includes, without limitation, the holder, and a
fiduciary, settlor, partner, member, shareholder, or beneficiary of the holder if the holder is an estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company, corporation, or other entity, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered
by a fiduciary holder. 
 (6) Additional amounts shall not be payable to any beneficial owner of this Note that is: 

 

	 	(a)	a fiduciary; 

  

	 	(b)	a partnership; 

  

	 	(c)	a limited liability company; 

  

	 	(d)	another fiscally transparent entity; or 

  

	 	(e)	not the sole beneficial owner of this Note, or any portion of this Note. 

 However, this exception to the obligation to pay additional amounts shall only apply to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor in relation to the fiduciary, or a beneficial owner, partner or member of
the partnership, limited liability company, or other fiscally transparent entity, would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor, partner, beneficial owner, or member received directly its beneficial
or distributive share of the payment. 
 (7) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a
result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner of this Note or any other person to comply with applicable certification, identification, documentation
or other information reporting requirements. This exception to the obligation to pay additional amounts shall apply only if compliance with such reporting requirements is required as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment or other
governmental charge by statute or regulation of the United States or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party. 

  
 8 

 (8) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result
of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is collected or imposed by any method other than by withholding from a payment on this Note by the Company or any paying agent. 

(9) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other
governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs
later. 
 (10) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment,

later. 
 (11) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as result of any: 

 

	 	(a)	estate tax; 

  

	 	(b)	inheritance tax; 

  

	 	(c)	gift tax; 

  

	 	(d)	sales tax; 

  

	 	(e)	excise tax; 

  

	 	(f)	transfer tax; 

  

	 	(g)	wealth tax; 

  

	 	(h)	personal property tax; or 

  

	 	(i)	any similar tax, assessment, or other governmental charge. 

 (12) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any paying agent from a
payment of principal or interest on this Note if such payment can be made without such withholding by any other paying agent. 

(13) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced by any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge
that is imposed or withheld by reason of the application of section 1471 (or any successor provision) or section 1472 (or any successor provision) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any related administrative regulation or
pronouncement. 

  
 9

(15) Additional amounts shall not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any combination of items
(1) through (14) above. 
 A “United States person” means: 

 

	 	(a)	any individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; 

  

	 	(b)	any corporation, partnership, or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States; 

 

	 	(c)	any estate if the income of such estate falls within the federal income tax jurisdiction of the United States regardless of the source of such income; and

  

	 	(d)	any trust if a U.S. court is able to exercise primary supervision over its administration and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all of the
substantial decisions of the trust. 

 A “Non-United States person” means a person who is not a United
States person, and “United States” means the United States of America, including the States and the District of Columbia, its territories, its possessions, and other areas within its jurisdiction.] 

SECTION 7. Redemption for Tax Reasons. [The Notes of this Series may be redeemed at the option of the Company in whole, but not in
part, at any time, on giving not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Trustee and the holders of the Notes, if the Company has or may become obliged to pay additional amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws
or regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or any authority thereof or therein having power to tax, or any change in the application or official interpretation of such laws or regulations after the date of this Note.

 Prior to publishing any notice of redemption, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate signed by the Chief
Financial Officer or a Senior Vice President of the Company stating that the Company is entitled to redeem the Notes and that the condition precedent to such redemption have occurred.
