3.45% Senior Notes due 2021 
  

	1.	Interest 

 Pioneer Natural Resources Company, a Delaware corporation (such corporation,
and its successors and assigns under the Indenture hereinafter referred to, being herein called the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate per annum shown above. The Company shall pay
interest semiannually on January 15 and July 15 of each year commencing on July 15, 2016. Interest on the Securities shall accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from
December 7, 2015. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. 
  

	2.	Method of Payment 

 The Company shall pay interest on the Securities (except defaulted
interest) to the Persons who are registered holders of Securities at the close of business on the January 1 or July 1 next preceding the interest payment date even if Securities are canceled after the record date and on or before the
interest payment date. Holders must surrender Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in immediately available (same day) funds in money of the United States of America that at the
time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. However, the Company may pay principal and interest by check or wire transfer payable in immediately available (same day) funds in such money. 

 

	3.	Paying Agent and Registrar 

 Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a United
States banking association (“Trustee”), shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may appoint and change any Paying Agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice. The Company or any of its domestically incorporated wholly
owned Subsidiaries may act as paying agent, Registrar or co-registrar. 
  

	4.	Indenture 

 The Company issued the Securities under an indenture dated as of
June 26, 2012, between the Company and the Trustee, as supplemented by the second supplemental indenture dated as of December 7, 2015 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture,” and, collectively with the aforementioned indenture, the
“Indenture”), among the Company, Pioneer Natural Resources USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Guarantor”), and the Trustee. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the
Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. §§ 77aaa-77bbbb) as in effect on the date of the Indenture (the “Act”). Terms defined in the Indenture and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed thereto
in the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Act for a statement of those terms. 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of general unsecured obligations of the Company all issued or to be issued under the
Indenture. Debt Securities issued under the 

 
Indenture may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates,
may have different conversion prices (if any), may be subject to different redemption provisions, may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds, may be subject to different covenants, Events of Default and subordination provisions
and may otherwise vary as the Indenture provides. This Security is one of a series designated as 3.45% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Securities”) issued under the Indenture, limited to $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount. The Company
may, without the consent of the Holders of the Securities, increase such aggregate principal amount in the future, on the same terms and conditions and with the same CUSIP numbers as the Securities. The Company shall not issue any such additional
Securities unless the additional Securities are fungible with the Securities for United States federal income tax purposes. The Indenture imposes certain limitations (with significant exceptions) on the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to
create Liens on assets and engage in sale and leaseback transactions. This Indenture also imposes limitations on the ability of the Company to consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of its assets. 

 

	5.	Obligation to Guarantee 

 The Guarantor, pursuant to the Second Supplemental Indenture,
has agreed that, if any of certain other senior notes of the Company hereafter are guaranteed by the Guarantor, then it will at that time unconditionally guarantee (i) the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on the Securities, whether at the maturity date, by acceleration or otherwise, and of interest on the overdue principal of and interest, if any, on any premium and interest of the Securities and all other obligations of the Company to the
Holders or the Trustee under the Indenture or the Securities and (ii) in case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any Securities or any of such other obligations, that the same will be promptly paid in full when due or performed
in accordance with the terms of the extension or renewal, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise. 
 The obligations of
the Guarantor to the Holders and to the Trustee are as expressly set forth in Section 4 of the Second Supplemental Indenture and in such other provisions of the Indenture as are applicable to the Guarantor, and reference is hereby made to such
Indenture for the precise terms of this obligation to guarantee. The terms of Section 4 of the Second Supplemental Indenture and such other provisions of the Indenture as are applicable to the Guarantor are incorporated herein by reference.

  

	6.	Optional Redemption 

 The Securities will be redeemable at any time, at the option of the
Company, in whole or from time to time in part, upon not less than 20 and not more than 60 days’ notice as provided in the Indenture, on any date prior to their maturity (the “Redemption Date”). If the Securities are redeemed before
the date that is one month prior to their maturity date (prior to December 15, 2020, which date shall be the “Par Call Date”), the Securities will be redeemed at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on an interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date) plus a Make-Whole
Premium, if any, calculated as provided in Section 2 of the Second Supplemental 

 
Indenture (the “Redemption Price”). In the event that the Securities are so redeemed, the Redemption Price will never be less than 100% of the principal amount of the Securities plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date. If the Securities are redeemed on or after the Par Call Date, the Securities will be redeemed at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding
to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on any interest payment date that is on or prior to the Redemption Date).

 Any such redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be conditioned upon the occurrence of certain events, as provided in
Section 2 of the Second Supplemental Indenture. 
  

	7.	Denominations; Transfer; Exchange 

 The Securities are in registered form without coupons
in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000. A Holder may transfer or exchange Securities only in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements or transfer
documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. 
  

	8.	Persons Deemed Owners 

 The registered Holder of this Security may be treated as the
owner of it for all purposes. 
  

	9.	Unclaimed Money 

 If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for
two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request unless an abandoned property law designates another Person. After any such payment, Holders entitled to the money must look only to the Company and not to
the Trustee for payment. 
  

	10.	Discharge and Defeasance 

 Subject to certain conditions, the Company at any time may
terminate some or all its obligations under the Securities and the Indenture if the Company deposits or causes to be deposited with the Trustee cash or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to
redemption or final maturity, as the case may be. 
  

	11.	Amendment, Waiver 

 Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture,
(i) the Indenture or the Securities may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities and (ii) any acceleration of principal and interest on the Securities
resulting from a default or noncompliance with any provision may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount outstanding of the Securities. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in Article IX of the
Indenture, without the consent of any Holder, the Company and the Trustee may amend the Indenture or the Securities to cure, among other things, any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, or to evidence the succession of

 
another Person to the Company pursuant to Article X of the Indenture, or to add guarantees with respect to the Securities or to secure the Securities, or to add additional covenants or surrender
rights and powers conferred on the Company, or to limit the applicability of or consequences of breach of any covenant, or to permit the qualification of the Indenture under the Act, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of
any Holder, or to provide for the acceptance of a successor or separate Trustee. 
  

	12.	Defaults and Remedies 

 Under the Indenture, Events of Default include (i) default
for 30 days in payment of interest on the Securities; (ii) default in payment of principal or premium on the Securities at maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise; (iii) failure by the Company to comply with other agreements in the
Indenture or the Securities, in certain cases subject to notice by Holders and lapse of time; (iv) certain accelerations (including failure to pay within any grace period after final maturity) of other Indebtedness of the Company if the amount
accelerated (or so unpaid) exceeds $50,000,000 and continues for 10 days after the required notice to the Company; and (v) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to the Company and any Significant Subsidiary. If an Event of
Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Securities may declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency are Events of Default
that will result in the Securities being due and payable immediately upon the occurrence of such Events of Default without any action by the Trustee or any Holders. 

Holders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may refuse to enforce the Indenture
or the Securities unless it receives reasonable indemnity or security. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold
from Holders notice of any continuing Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the Holders. 

 

	13.	Trustee Dealings with the Company 

 Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Act,
the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the
Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 
  

	14.	No Recourse Against Others 

 An incorporator and any past, present or future director,
officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their
creation. By accepting a Security, each Holder waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities. 

	15.	Authentication 

 This Security shall not be valid until an authorized signatory of the
Trustee (or an authenticating agent) manually signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Security. 
  

	16.	Abbreviations 

 Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an
assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TEN ENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with rights of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act). 

 

	17.	Governing Law 

 THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK BUT WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO APPLICABLE PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW TO THE EXTENT THAT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION WOULD BE REQUIRED THEREBY. 

 

	18.	CUSIP Numbers 

 Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform
Security Identification Procedures, the Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Securities and has directed the Trustee to use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the
accuracy of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers placed thereon.

of this Security. Requests may be made to:
