 ARTICLE 3 

Financing The Venture 

3.1. Capital Contributions of the Members. 

3.1.1. Current Capital Accounts. Capital Contributions made to the Joint Venture through the Restatement Date are reflected in
the Capital Contribution Accounts of the Members. 
 3.1.2. Additional Capital Contributions. If the Members should at any
time determine that the Joint Venture needs additional funds in order to continue to transact business, as provided in Section 3.3, the Members agree, to the extent practicable and economically feasible, that the funds shall be obtained through
loans obtained by the Joint Venture. If the Joint Venture is unable to, or the Members mutually elect not to, borrow such additional funds, then each Member agrees to make additional cash capital contributions to the Joint Venture, in proportion to
its interest in the Venture, in order to provide the Joint Venture with the necessary funds. If either Member should fail to make such additional capital contribution, then the other Member may, at its option, make on behalf of the non-contributing Member, another additional cash contribution in the non-contributing Member’s place and in an amount equal to that which the non-contributing Member was obligated but failed to make. In such event, the additional cash capital contribution shall be treated as a loan from the contributing Member to the
non-contributing Member, and shall bear interest at the announced Prime Rate of Citibank plus 3% per annum (but not in excess of the maximum rate permitted by law) and shall be payable not later than 30
days following the date the additional cash contribution is made. Capital calls shall be made only upon mutual consent of the Members. 

3.1.3. Capital Contributions to Pay Liabilities. The Members shall not be obligated by this Agreement to make any additional or
other capital contributions to the Joint Venture, other than as provided in Section 3.1.2 or except to the extent that either Member may be obligated to do so by a creditor of the Joint Venture under applicable state partnership laws. Any sum
paid by either Member to or on behalf of the Joint Venture to the extent such Member was obligated to do so by a creditor of the Joint Venture under applicable state partnership law shall be regarded and treated as a capital contribution to the
Joint Venture by the Member who 

  
 5 

 
made it and shall be credited to its Capital Account. No provision of this Section 3.1.3 shall be deemed to limit a Member’s right of contribution from the other Member to the extent
that the Member is obligated to make an additional capital contribution to the Joint Venture by a creditor of the Joint Venture under applicable state partnership law. 

3.1.4. Capital Account. A separate account entitled “Capital Account” shall be established and maintained for
each Member on the books of account of the Joint Venture. Such Capital Account shall reflect all contributions and withdrawals of capital of such Member. No withdrawals shall be made from the Capital Account of a Member, except as may be authorized
by the Board of Directors. The respective Capital Accounts of the Members will be determined and maintained in accordance with the rules of paragraph (b)(2)(iv) of Reg. §1.704-1 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended from time-to-time, the “Code”), and will be adjusted in accordance with paragraph (b)(2)(iv)(g) of the same
regulation for allocations to such Capital Accounts of depreciation, depletion, amortization, and gain or loss, as computed for book purposes, with respect to property described under paragraphs (b)(2)(iv)(d)(3) and (b)(2)(iv)(f)(3) of the same
regulation. 
 3.1.5. No Guaranteed Return on Capital. A Member shall not be entitled to be paid any interest or specified
rate of return on its capital contributions or its Capital Account. The Joint Venture shall not be obligated to repurchase or to redeem the interest of either Member, and the Member shall not have the right to withdraw or to demand a return of its
capital contributions, whether in cash or in assets other than cash, except as specifically provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement. 

  
 6 

 3.2. Members, Interest in the Venture. The interest of each Member in the Joint
Venture for all purposes of this Agreement shall be its share of the Joint Venture’s assets, liabilities and equities, its allocations of profit and loss and its distributions of cash or other assets, which share, subject to the special
allocations described in Section 3.4, shall be equal to the percentages specified as follows: 
  

			
	Member	  	 Initial Interest in

the Venture

	 AVI
	  	50%
	 WVI
	  	50%

 3.3. Financing. The Members agree that, to the extent practicable and economically feasible, all
funds required for the Joint Venture in excess of the initial capital contributions of the Members, shall be obtained by loans arranged for and obtained in the name of the Joint Venture. Both Members agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to
assist in obtaining such necessary financing. To the extent required by the financing institutions, the Members agree to guarantee, or cause their respective parents to guarantee, their proportionate share of any such financing on a
“several” basis (i.e., so that neither Member (or their Affiliates) will be liable for the portion guaranteed by the other Member). Any necessary guarantees shall be furnished on terms reasonably satisfactory to the respective lenders and
Members. In lieu of guarantees of loans from financial institutions, the Members shall have the option of making (or having their Affiliates make) direct loans to the Joint Venture. If one Member elects to make such a loan and the other secures
financing for the Joint Venture from a financial institution, the interest rate payable to the lending Member shall equal the rate payable to the financial institution. If one Member’s guarantee cannot support an interest rate as low as the
other, arrangements will be made so that the Member obtaining the higher rate will make up the difference in the two rates. 
 3.4.
Special Allocation of Joint Venture Profits and Losses. 
 (a) The Members agree that a special allocation of income or
loss (or items thereof) shall be made to WVI’s Capital Account for each Fiscal Year beginning on or after January 1, 2010 in an amount equal to the aggregate Armstrong Grid Profits or Armstrong Grid Losses earned or incurred (or otherwise
recognized), as applicable, during such Fiscal Year. Prior to allocating the remaining profits and losses of the Joint Venture for any such Fiscal Year as provided in Section 3.4(b), the calculation of the Armstrong Grid Profits or Armstrong
Grid Losses for such Fiscal Year shall initially be made by AVI in good faith. AVI, at the request of WVI, shall provide to WVI all information and documentation as shall be reasonably necessary 

  
 7 

 
to verify the calculation of the Armstrong Grid Profits or Armstrong Grid Losses. If there is a dispute between the Members as to the amount of the Armstrong Grid Profits or Armstrong Grid
Losses, or if either of the Members requests, in writing, then, in either such event, the amount of the Armstrong Grid Profits or Armstrong Grid Losses shall be calculated by the independent certified public accounting firm then serving as auditors
to the Joint Venture (or such other independent certified public accounting firm as is mutually agreeable to the Members) and AVI shall provide such accounting firm with all documents and information reasonably requested by such accounting firm to
verify the calculation of the Armstrong Grid Profits or Armstrong Grid Losses for such Fiscal Year. Such determination of the Armstrong Grid Profits or Armstrong Grid Losses by the accounting firm shall be considered final, conclusive and binding on
the Members absent proven manifest error. 
 (b) All remaining profits or losses of the Joint Venture (i.e., the total profit or loss of the
Joint Venture less the special allocation described in Section 3.4(a)) shall be allocated between AVI and WVI in accordance with their respective interests in the Joint Venture as set forth in Section 3.2. 

(c) The Members agree that prior to the last day of each Fiscal Year occurring after January 1, 2010, the Joint Venture shall estimate
the amount of the special allocation to be made to WVI for such Fiscal Year pursuant to Section 3.4(a) and shall make a cash distribution to WVI equal to, or greater than, such estimated amount prior to the last day of such Fiscal Year. When
computing the estimated Armstrong Grid Profits and the distribution on account of such profits as described above, the Members agree to implement procedures to ensure that the Members’ respective Capital Accounts will not be impacted in any way
that would trigger a change in the Joint Venture’s taxable year-end under Code § 706. At WVI’s discretion, these procedures shall include the reasonable payment of distributions prior
to the end of a particular Fiscal Year that are sufficiently in excess of projected Armstrong Grid Profits for such Fiscal Year. Any such distributions received by WVI relating to a particular Fiscal Year that are in excess of the Armstrong Grid
Profits as finally determined for such Fiscal Year, shall be promptly returned by WVI to the Joint Venture during the following Fiscal Year at AVI’s discretion, as either an additional capital contribution to the Joint Venture by WVI or a
reduction of WVI’s distribution of the Joint Venture’s profits for such subsequent Fiscal Year. 

  
 8 

 (d) The principles for the allocation of the Joint Venture’s profits as set forth in
Sections 3.4(b) and 3.4(c) are illustrated on the example set forth in Exhibit 3.4(d). 
 (e) All distributions
(including liquidating distributions) under this Agreement shall be made in accordance with the allocations set forth in this Section 3.4. 

(f) The Members expressly intend for Affiliates of AWI outside of the United States of America to be authorized to sell Grid for and on behalf
of the Joint Venture as deemed necessary by the Members, consistent with the Sales Representation Agreement. Furthermore, transfer pricing between the Joint Venture and any such foreign Affiliates of AWI will be in accordance with arm’s-length principles and as otherwise required by local tax regulations. 
 (g) The Members agree
that the Joint Venture shall enter into such agreements for the sale and distribution of Grid with the applicable Affiliates of AWI, subject to the approval of the Members. 

ARTICLE 4 

Facilities 

4.1. Selection of Sites. The Board of Directors will determine the location of the manufacturing facilities, offices and any
other locations for the Joint Venture. 
 4.2. Member Facilities. 

4.2.1. Lease of Facilities. Unless the Members and the Joint Venture otherwise agree, if any facility of a Member Corporation (or
any portion thereof) is to be operated by the Joint Venture, the Joint Venture will lease (or sublease) such facility from the Member Corporation at a fair market value to be negotiated between the parties. Any common items will be reasonably
allocated. The lease or sublease of such facilities shall be documented through a lease or sublease reasonably negotiated between the parties. 

4.2.2. Initial Handling of Employees, Termination Costs, Contracts, Warehouses and Trucking. Treatment of any employees of a
Member who worked for the Joint Venture prior to the Restatement Date shall be handled as provided in the Existing Joint Venture Agreement or as otherwise agreed by the Members and the Joint Venture. The manner

  
 9 

 
in which prior use of facilities, warehouses or trucking services of a Member Corporation is as provided in the Existing Joint Venture Agreement or as otherwise agreed by the Members and the
Joint Venture. 
 ARTICLE 5 

Operation of the Joint Venture 

5.1. Operating Management. The Board of Directors of the Joint Venture shall nominate, select and appoint a Chief Executive
Officer for the Joint Venture. The Chief Executive Officer shall be responsible for the day-to-day operation of the Joint Venture. The Board of Directors shall also appoint a CFO and such other officers as it deems appropriate. The Board of
Directors shall determine the structure of the management of the Joint Venture and responsibilities given to the officers. The executive officers of the Joint Venture shall report to the Chief Executive Officer unless otherwise determined by the
Board of Directors. 
 5.2. Employees. 

5.2.1. From time to time, the Member Corporations may, at the request of the Joint Venture, assign certain of their employees to work
for the Joint Venture. If any employees of a Member Corporation are assigned to provide services for the Joint Venture, the Member Corporation providing such employee and the Joint Venture shall mutually determine the compensation and benefits for
such employees. Such Member’s corporate policies shall continue to apply to and govern that employee’s employment during his/her term of service, in conjunction with any applicable policies of the Joint Venture. During their assignment,
employees of the Member Corporations assigned to the Joint Venture shall remain employees of the applicable Member Corporation. The Joint Venture shall reimburse the applicable Member Corporation for the agreed upon compensation and benefits paid
during assignment to the Joint Venture. 
 5.2.2. Employees. The Members agree that any employees of a Member Corporation who
are assigned to and work for the Joint Venture shall be available to the Member Group for whom they previously worked to be transferred back to the other operations of that Member Group; provided, however, that the timing of any such
transfer will not be disruptive to 

  
 10 

 
the Joint Venture’s operations, appropriate replacements are available and the Joint Venture has no other compelling reasons to object to such transfer. Such employees of a Member
Corporation shall not be subject to the obligations of Section 12.1.2(b) hereunder, as to their Member Group. 
 5.2.3. Joint
Venture Employees. The Joint Venture shall also from time to time employ its own employees and the Joint Venture shall determine the compensation, benefits and corporate policies and procedures applicable with respect to those employees.

 5.3. Sales. The intent of the Members is that the Grid produced by the Joint Venture will be sold for the Joint Venture by
the Armstrong sales force, which also sells Armstrong ceiling tiles. Such selling efforts shall be performed in accordance with the existing Sales Representation Agreement entered into between the Joint Venture and Armstrong as of March 23,
1992 (as amended from time to time, the “Sales Representation Agreement”), pursuant to which Armstrong will have its sales force use all reasonable efforts to sell Grid. The above notwithstanding, the Joint Venture may employ such
additional sales representatives or sales agents as the Board of Directors determines. Further, should the Board of Directors determine that its Grid can be sold in a more effective manner, it shall be entitled to amend or terminate the Sales
Representation Agreement with Armstrong in a manner which is fair and reasonable to both parties. 
 5.4. Steel Purchases; Steel
Supply Sourcing Services. The Joint Venture agrees to provide WVI or its affiliated Worthington Steel Companies (collectively, together with their respective successors and assigns, “Worthington Steel”) the first right to
supply the steel used at each Joint Venture facility for the production of its Grid, and the Joint Venture shall purchase from Worthington Steel such steel as to which Worthington Steel elects. However, Worthington Steel may exercise its election
under this provision only with respect to those items of steel as to which: (a) Worthington Steel is competitive in price, quality and other terms for prime steel with respect to such item or items; and (b) Worthington Steel (i) has a
facility within a reasonable distance from the Grid facility, or (ii) can still provide similar service, delivery and pricing as steel suppliers which are close to the Grid facility. If Worthington Steel does not elect to supply any item of
steel, or any portion thereof, or if Worthington Steel does not meet the provisions of 

  
 11 

 
the prior sentence as to any item of steel, then the Joint Venture shall be free to purchase from other parties, any such item, or the portion of such item, not being supplied by Worthington
Steel. In setting the prices for any steel to be supplied by Worthington Steel, the parties shall consider the price that could be obtained from others to supply steel of the same quality and the same level of service, the absence of commissions,
and the limited credit risk in selling to the Joint Venture. Pricing for said steel will be set in good faith based upon fair market value for the type of steel product and services required. Purchasing arrangements will be reviewed by the Board of
Directors every six months, or sooner if needed. If, for any of the reasons specified above in this Section 5.4, Worthington Steel is not supplying any item of steel, or portion thereof, to the Joint Venture, Worthington Steel will, at the
request of the Joint Venture, agree to assist the Joint Venture in identifying and procuring one or more reliable sources of competitively priced prime steel to supply the Joint Venture’s requirements for any such item of steel not being
supplied by Worthington Steel (any such assistance so provided by Worthington Steel will be referred to herein as the “Steel Supply Sourcing Services”). Worthington Steel will use commercially reasonable efforts in providing the
Steel Supply Sourcing Services. The amount to be paid, if any, to Worthington Steel by the Joint Venture for such services will be reasonably agreed by them, based on the principles mutually agreed to from time to time. The Joint Venture will
at any time have the right, upon notice to Worthington Steel, to immediately terminate any Steel Supply Sourcing Services being provided by Worthington Steel and to thereafter directly or indirectly source and purchase its requirements for any items
of steel which are not then being supplied by Worthington Steel. 
 5.5. Costs. All costs of the Joint Venture, including
amounts paid to the Member Corporations pursuant to the contracts described herein, shall be paid by the Joint Venture. 
 5.6.
Allocation and Distribution of Profits. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as agreed by the Members, all profits and losses of the Joint Venture shall be allocated to each Member according to their respective Interests in
the Joint Venture. 
 5.7. Cash Distributions. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as agreed by the Members:
(a) Cash shall be distributed to the Members from the Joint Venture in such amounts and at such times as the Board of Directors may determine; and (b) each distribution of 

  
 12 

 
cash shall be made to the Members in proportion to their Interests in the Joint Venture at the time of such distribution. Generally, the Members expect that the Joint Venture will distribute at
least a sufficient amount of cash for the Members to pay their taxes on Joint Venture earnings, unless the Members otherwise agree. 

5.8. Investment of Funds. All cash of the Joint Venture shall, to the extent possible, be maintained in such interest bearing
bank accounts (“sweep” account) in the name of, or for the benefit of, the Joint Venture or in such short term investments as the Joint Venture’s Board of Directors may determine from time to time. No Member shall be entitled to take
an advance against anticipated future distributions or borrow funds from the Joint Venture without the approval of the Board of Directors. If at any time a Member so requests, all cash funds of the Joint Venture shall be kept solely in segregated
accounts of the Joint Venture. 
 5.9. Worthington Support Agreement. The Joint Venture shall enter into with Worthington, the
Worthington Support Agreement, substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.9 hereto (as amended from time-to-time, the “Worthington Support
Agreement”), pursuant to which Worthington shall provide the Joint Venture certain administrative, support and operational services for a fee which shall be agreed upon between Worthington and the Joint Venture. 

5.10. Armstrong Support Agreement. The Joint Venture shall enter into with Armstrong, the Armstrong Support Agreement,
substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.10 hereto, (as amended from time-to-time, the “Armstrong Support Agreement”), pursuant to
which Armstrong shall provide the Joint Venture certain administrative, advertising, product development, technical, support and operational services for a fee which shall be agreed upon between Armstrong and the Joint Venture. 

5.11. Other Contracts. The Joint Venture may enter into other contracts and agreements with either Member or its Affiliates
which will include a reasonable profit or fee, but only with the prior consent of the Board of Directors. Any such agreement, including the Sales Representation Agreement, the Worthington Support Agreement and the Armstrong Support Agreement, shall
not be modified or amended or the terms thereof extended without the prior consent of the Board of Directors. 

  
 13 

 5.12. Assistance to the Joint Venture. Each Member agrees to use reasonable efforts
to assist the Joint Venture in the conduct of its Business and to communicate to the Board of Directors of the Joint Venture promptly all information, requests, and other matters relating to the affairs of the Joint Venture received by such Members.

 5.13. Taxes. The Board of Directors shall appoint an appropriate person or entity to prepare and file any tax returns or
other filings which may be appropriate for the Joint Venture. 
 5.14. Compliance with Laws and Standards of Conduct. Each
Member, for itself, its Affiliates and their directors, officers, agents, employees and other persons authorized to act in its or their behalf agrees that the Business of the Joint Venture shall be conducted in conformity with all applicable laws,
statutes, regulations, rules, policies, and orders as in effect from time to time. 
 ARTICLE 6

supervision of the Business of the Joint Venture shall be vested in a Board of Directors consisting of three persons appointed by AVI and three persons appointed by WVI. Each director shall serve at the pleasure of the Member appointing such
director. All appointments and withdrawals of appointment shall be made by written notice to the other Member. Each Member may, but need not, designate an alternate director for each director (one alternate may represent more than one director) who
shall represent the designated director if the designated director cannot attend the meeting. Action taken with approval of an alternate director shall be as valid as if taken with the approval of the designated director. 

6.2. Voting.

 14 

 6.2.2. Deadlock. It is expected that consensus of the Board of Directors will be
the general rule. However, if the Board of Directors becomes deadlocked over any matter, then such controversy shall be addressed under the alternative dispute resolution provisions as provided in Article 13 hereof. 

6.3. Meetings. 

6.3.1. Time and Place. The Board of Directors shall meet at least semi-annually (unless the Members or the Board of Directors
otherwise determine) on such dates as the Board of Directors may agree in writing. Additional meetings shall be held at the written request of any director on five business days’ notice issued to all directors by the director requesting the
meeting. Unless otherwise agreed by the Board, the meetings shall alternate between a location reasonably designated by the AVI directors and a location reasonably designated by the WVI directors. 

6.3.2. Quorum. A quorum for all meetings of the Board of Directors shall be four directors represented in person or by proxy,
consisting of at least two directors appointed by each of AVI and WVI. 
 6.3.3. Telephone, Meetings and Consent Actions. Any
director may participate in a meeting by conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear one another. Any action of the Board of Directors may be taken without a meeting by
formal written resolution if all directors sign the resolution. 
 6.4. Minutes. Minutes of all meetings of the Board of
Directors shall be kept by such person as is designated by the Board, and copies of all Board of Directors minutes and other resolutions approved by the Board of Directors shall be given to each director. 

6.5. Officers. 

6.5.1. Chairman. The Members agree that one of the members of the Board of Directors shall be appointed Chairman of the Board of
Directors to preside at the meetings of the Board of Directors. In the event that the Chief Executive Officer of the Joint Venture was an 

  
 15 

 
employee of either Member or one of its Affiliates at the time he was so appointed, then the Chairman shall be selected from the members of the Board of Directors appointed by the other Member.
If the Chief Executive Officer of the Joint Venture was not an employee of either Member or their Affiliates when so appointed, then the Chairmanship shall alternate each year between a member of the Board of Directors designated by WVI and a member
of the Board of Directors designated by AVI. The Chairman of the Board shall not be considered an officer of the Joint Venture. 
 6.6.
Specific Powers of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors shall have, without limitation, the specific power to:

public accountants (which may be the same as the accountants retained in connection with the audit of the financial statements of a Member) to audit the books and records of the Joint Venture at the end of each fiscal year requested by the Member
and certify to the Members as to the financial statements of the Joint Venture, and provide a full and complete report of the audit scope and audit findings. 

7.4. Location of Accounts. The books, accounts and records of the Joint Venture shall be maintained at its principal office or
such other location as the Board of Directors may determine. 
 7.5. Right to Inspect. Each Member shall have the right to
inspect the books and records of the Joint Venture, directly or through its agents or representatives, at any reasonable time, to make copies thereof, and to cause a supplementary audit thereof at its own expense by certified public accountants of
its choice. The Joint Venture shall also supply each Member with such additional financial and other information as the Member may reasonably request. 

7.6. Accounting Disputes. AVI and WVI shall each designate an individual who shall be responsible for resolving any disputes as
to accounting with respect to the Joint Venture. On failure of such individuals to reach agreement within a reasonable time, the dispute shall be submitted, at the request of either Member, to the public accounting firm which has been engaged to
audit the books of the Joint Venture or if no accounting firm has been so engaged, then to a public accounting firm mutually agreeable to the Members. In such case the determination of the accounting firm shall be final and binding on the Members in
all cases.

Information and use reasonable efforts to ensure that its employees and others subject directly or indirectly to its control shall not reproduce, disclose or make available to any third party any of such Confidential Information; 

(b) limit access to Confidential Information to such of its employees and representatives, including without limitation members of each
Member’s outside law and accounting firms, as may be reasonably required in connection with the activities of the Joint Venture as contemplated by this Agreement; and

Confidential Information is confided; 
 (b) becomes available to the confidant Member Group on a
non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing Member Group, and provided that such source has represented to the confidant Member Group (and which confidant Member Group has no reason to
disbelieve after due inquiry) that it is entitled to disclose the Confidential Information; or 

  
 19 

 (c) was known to the confidant Member Group on a
non-confidential basis prior to the disclosure thereof to the confidant Member Group by the disclosing Member Group.

shall be returned by such other Member Group to the disclosing Member Group immediately upon a request of the disclosing Member Group. The confidentiality obligations and restrictions on use contained in this Article 8 shall survive this
Agreement. 
 8.4. Nondisclosure of Terms of Agreement. Each Member (on behalf of itself and its Affiliates) agrees that its
Member Group shall not disclose the terms of this Agreement without the consent of the other Member Group, except to the extent as may be determined by counsel to be required by law, governmental regulation or the rules of any applicable securities
exchange on which the shares of AWI or WII are traded, or in connection with any judicial proceeding or arbitration; provided, however, that each Member Group may disclose the terms of this Agreement: (i) to its Affiliates,
directors, officers and employees, (ii) to its legal, insurance, accounting, investment bankers or other advisors in the ordinary course of the Member Group’s business; (iii) where such disclosures are reasonably required in the
conduct of a Member Group’s business, subject to appropriate agreements of nondisclosure; or (iv) in general terms in disclosures to investors and other stakeholders; or (v) where such disclosures are inadvertent, provided such Member
Group has exercised the same degree of care to avoid such disclosure as it takes to protect its own similar proprietary business information.

10.1. Restrictions on Transfer of Interest. Neither Member, without the prior written consent of the other, may sell, assign or
otherwise transfer its interest in the Joint Venture in whole or in part to any other person, provided, however, that the Members agree not to unreasonably withhold their consent to a transfer to an Affiliate of the transferring party.

 10.2. Consent. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, or the General Partnership Law, no sale, transfer or

to dissolve the Joint Venture upon the occurrence of any event or the existence of any condition beyond the reasonable control of the Members which prevents the Joint Venture from producing and/or selling commercially acceptable products consistent
with the purpose of the Joint Venture or the Joint Venture is otherwise unable to carry out its purpose, and such event or condition cannot be corrected within a reasonable time, at a reasonable expense.

Target” is defined to be an annual return of 15%. 
 The “annual return” shall mean the Venture’s return on
total assets before interest and income taxes for the applicable fiscal year and shall be calculated as: (a) the Venture’s net income plus interest expense (less interest income) plus income tax, divided by (b) the average of the
amount of total assets for the Venture at the end of each month during the fiscal year in question. All such calculations shall be in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as applied by the Joint Venture. 

The Members shall meet at the end of each fiscal year and review the Financial Target; provided, however, that unanimous consent
of the Members shall be required in order to change the Financial Target. 
 11.1.3. Default Dissolution. The non-defaulting Member may elect to terminate and dissolve the Joint Venture in the event of a default, as specified below, by the other Member. The occurrence of any of the following events shall constitute a
default by a Member: 
 (a) A Member shall have defaulted in its obligation to make any capital contribution or to support financial
commitments as required in Articles 2 and 3 hereof and such default shall continue to exist for a period of 30 days after the other Member gives such defaulting Member written notice of such default. 

(b) A Member or its Affiliate shall materially default in the observance or performance of any material agreement, covenant, or condition
contained in this Agreement or in any material agreement with or relating to the Joint Venture and such default shall continue to exist for a period of 30 days after the other Member or the Joint Venture gives such defaulting Member or its Affiliate
written notice of such default; 

  
 23 

 (c) A representation or warranty made by the Member herein or in any Related Agreement (or in any
certificate or financial or other statement furnished by such Member to the other in connection therewith) or by the Member’s Affiliate in connection with this Agreement or any Related Agreement shall prove to be false or misleading in any
respect which would have a material adverse effect on the Joint Venture or the other Member and remain uncured for a period of thirty (30) days after the other Member gives the Member or its Affiliate written notice of such default; 

(d) There is an entry of an order for relief or the institution of any proceedings of any nature under the laws of the United States or any
state or any foreign country for relief of debtors wherein an Affiliated Member Corporation (or any parent thereof) is seeking relief as debtor; there is an appointment of a receiver, trustee, custodian or like officer for all or substantially all
of the business or assets of such Affiliated Member Corporation (or any parent thereof) on the grounds of insolvency and either the Affiliated Member Corporation (or any parent thereof) has consented to such appointment, or such Affiliated Member
Corporation (or any parent thereof) has failed to vacate or otherwise cause said appointment to be set aside within 60 days; or there is the institution against such Affiliated Member Corporation (or any parent thereof) of a proceeding under
the Federal bankruptcy act or any law of the United States or other jurisdiction now in existence or hereinafter enacted having the same general purpose which proceeding is not dismissed or discharged within 60 days after the institution
thereof. 
 11.1.4. Worthington Change in Control. AVI may elect to terminate and dissolve the Joint Venture if:
(a)(i) any Person or group of Persons (within the meaning of Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act), excluding the members of the current executive management of Worthington Industries, Inc. and their Relatives and Affiliates, shall acquire
(whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act) of 50% or more of the issued and outstanding
voting securities (determined on a fully-diluted basis) of Worthington Industries, Inc. (together with its successors and assigns, “WII”) and (ii) AVI reasonably determines that such event would
be or could be adverse to its interest; or (b)(i) WII shall sell all or substantially all of its assets to any Person or group of Persons and (ii) AVI reasonably determines that such event would be or could be adverse to its interest, or
(c) WVI shall cease to 

  
 24 

 
be an Affiliate of WII; provided, however, that with respect to any transaction that would result in WVI ceasing to be an Affiliate of WII, such transaction will not be deemed to
constitute a change in control pursuant to this Section 11.1.4 if Persons who beneficially own (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act) more than fifty percent
(50%) of the issued and outstanding voting securities of WII as of immediately prior to such transaction, continue to beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding voting securities
of WVI immediately following the completion of such transaction.  
 11.1.5. Armstrong Change in Control. WVI may elect
to terminate and dissolve the Joint Venture if: (a)(i) any Person or group of Persons (within the meaning of Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act), excluding the members of the current executive management of Armstrong World Industries,
Inc. and their Relatives and Affiliates, shall acquire (whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated by the SEC under the
Exchange Act) of 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities (determined on a fully-diluted basis) of AWI and (ii) WVI reasonably determines that such event would be or could be adverse to
its interest, or (b)(i) AWI shall sell all or substantially all of its assets to any Person or group of Persons and (ii) WVI reasonably determines that such event would be or could be adverse to its interest, or (c) AVI shall cease to
be an Affiliate of AWI; provided, however, that with respect to any transaction that would result in AVI ceasing to be an Affiliate of AWI, such transaction will not be deemed to constitute a change in control pursuant to this
Section 11.1.5 if (i) Persons who beneficially own (within the meaning of Rule 13d 3 promulgated by the SEC under the Exchange Act) more than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding voting securities of AWI as of
immediately prior to such transaction, continue to beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than fifty percent (50%) of the issued and outstanding voting securities of AVI immediately following the completion of such transaction and
(ii) AVI continues to be affiliated with or connected to the Armstrong ceilings business (currently known as the Armstrong Building Products division of Armstrong). As of the Restatement Date, AWI has publicly announced its plan to spin off its
flooring business into a separate publicly traded company (“Flooring Spinoff”). The parties acknowledge and agree that a Flooring Spinoff, as currently publicly disclosed by AWI (in its press release and Form 10 filings with the SEC) and
explained to WVI, shall not constitute a change in control of Armstrong for purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 25 

 11.1.6. Election to Terminate. An election to terminate and dissolve the Joint
Venture pursuant to Section 11.1.4 or 11.1.5 must be made within 90 days after the Member which has the election is given all relevant facts concerning the change in control by the other Member. 

11.2. Notice of Dissolution. If a Member is entitled to dissolve the Joint Venture, it may do so by giving notice to the other
Member, in writing, that it is electing to dissolve the Joint Venture. 
 11.3. Winding Up. If the Joint Venture is to be
dissolved, then the Members shall proceed jointly to wind up the affairs of the Joint Venture; provided, however, that if the dissolution is occurring pursuant to Section 11.1.3, then the
non-defaulting Member may unilaterally wind up the affairs of the Joint Venture if it so chooses. 

11.4. Liquidation of Assets. 

11.4.1. Manner of Liquidation. If, in winding up the affairs of the Joint Venture, no election is made, pursuant to
Section 11.5 below, by either Member to continue conducting the Business of the Joint Venture, then the Members shall attempt to sell the Business of the Joint Venture. If an acceptable buyer cannot be found within a reasonable time, the Joint
Venture shall be liquidated. The assets of the Joint Venture, including proceeds of sale, shall be applied in the following order: 
 (a) To
payment of the expenses of the sale or liquidation; 
 (b) To payment (or creation of reserves for payment) of the debts and liabilities of
the Joint Venture, first to non-members and then to Members for services, advances or otherwise; 

(c) To payment to each Member of its share of profits which have been accumulated and not previously paid out; 

  
 26 

 (d) To payment to each Member of the amounts outstanding to its credit with respect to its
Capital Account; and 
 (e) To divide the surplus, if any, in proportion to the interest of each Member in the Joint Venture. 

The liquidation of the assets and discharge of liabilities shall occur over a reasonable time so as to enable the Members to minimize the
normal losses attendant upon a liquidation. Each Member immediately shall pay to the Joint Venture all amounts owing to the Joint Venture, together with its proportionate share of all contributions required by law to be paid by the Members for the
payment of liabilities of the Joint Venture. 
 11.4.2. Accounting on Liquidation. If the Joint Venture is liquidated, each
Member shall be furnished with a statement (which shall, at the option of either Member, be certified by the independent auditor who, if not already appointed, shall be appointed by mutual agreement of the Members of the Joint Venture), which shall
set forth the assets and liabilities of the Joint Venture and the status of the Capital Accounts of the Members as of the date of the completed liquidation, taking into account distributions and payments as provided in Section 11.4.1
hereinabove, the allocation of all gain or loss realized by the Joint Venture on the liquidation of property and assets of the Joint Venture, and the allocation of any tax benefits. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, upon the dissolution,
liquidation and termination of the Joint Venture, if either Member has a negative Capital Account, then it shall make a capital contribution to the Joint Venture, either to pay creditors of the Joint Venture or to distribute to the other Member, of
an amount of money equal to the amount of the negative balance in such Member’s Capital Account in order to restore such Capital Account balance to zero. Such capital contribution shall be made within 90 days after the liquidation of the Joint
Venture. 
 11.4.3. Payment of Costs. The Joint Venture will pay all costs incurred in the sale or other disposition of its
assets upon liquidation and any other expenses incurred in the liquidation and dissolution. 
 11.4.4. Purchase by a Member
Group. If either Member or an Affiliate thereof buys the Business of the Joint Venture as part of a sale or other disposition of assets upon 

  
 27 

 
liquidation, the price to be paid for the Business shall in all events be calculated as if the purchase were being made as a buy-out under
Section 11.5.1, 11.5.2 or 11.5.3, whichever may be applicable, and such Member (or its Affiliate) must pay fair market value (or 85% of fair market value in cases of default). If there are any loans outstanding which are owed by the Member
whose interest is being purchased to the Member making the purchase, the Member making the purchase may apply a portion of the purchase price to the repayment of any unpaid principal amount of, and accrued unpaid interest on, any such loans. 

11.5. Buy-Out-Procedures. 

11.5.1. Buy-Out on Default. If an election is made by a Member to terminate the Joint
Venture pursuant to Section 11.1.3 above, that Member may also elect, by written notice given within ninety (90) days of the date of the election to terminate, to continue the Business of the Joint Venture. In such event the electing
Member shall purchase the other Member’s interest in the Joint Venture for an amount equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the fair market value of the other Member’s interest. 

11.5.2. Buy-Out on Elective Dissolution. If an election is made by a Member (the
“Terminating Member”) to terminate the Joint Venture pursuant to Section 11.1.2, the other Member may elect, by written notice given within 90 days of the date of the election to terminate, to continue the business of the
Joint Venture. In such event, the acquiring Member shall purchase the Terminating Member’s interest in the Joint Venture for an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Terminating Member’s interest.

 11.5.3. Buy-Out on Mutual Agreement. If the Joint Venture is terminated pursuant to
Section 11.1.1 above, either Member may elect, by written notice given within ninety (90) days of the date of termination, to continue conducting the Business of the Joint Venture. Unless the Members otherwise agree, the acquiring Member
shall purchase the Terminating Member’s interest in the Joint Venture for an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the fair market value of the Terminating Member’s interest. 

11.5.4. Fair Market Value – Mutual Agreement. In case of elections under Section 11.5.1, 11.5.2 or 11.5.3,
hereinabove, the Members shall use their best efforts to agree as 

  
 28 

 
to the fair market value of the Joint Venture. If the Members fail to agree on such fair market value within sixty (60) days following the election by a Member to continue the Joint Venture,
fair market value shall be determined pursuant to Section 11.5.5. 
 11.5.5. Fair Market Value – Third Party
Determination. (a) If the Members cannot agree upon the fair market value of the Business in accordance with Section 11.5.4, then either Member may elect, by written notice of the other, to have fair market value set by independent
appraisal (“Appraisal Notice”). Within fifteen (15) days following the receipt of the Appraisal Notice (the “Agreed Appointment Period”), the Members shall attempt to agree upon a Person to determine the fair market value
(the “Agreed Appraiser”) and the procedures under which the Agreed Appraiser shall determine the fair market value. If the Members cannot agree upon an Agreed Appraiser or the procedures to be used within the Agreed Appointment Period,
within fifteen (15) days following the expiration of the Agreed Appointment Period, each of the Members shall (i) retain a reputable investment banking firm of national or regional recognition having significant experience in performing
valuations of complex business entities (each, an “Advocate Appraiser”) and (ii) notify the other Member, in writing, of the name, address and contact information of its Advocate Appraiser. Each Advocate Appraiser shall make a
separate determination of the fair market value of the Business as of the end of the most recently completed calendar quarter using whatever reasonable assumptions and valuation methods that they deem appropriate. Each Advocate Appraiser shall have
a period of thirty (30) days within which to complete their respective determinations of the fair market value of the Business and provide a written report setting forth its determination to each of the Members (each, an “Advocate
Appraiser Report”). Each Advocate Appraiser Report shall include a reasonably detailed description of the assumptions and valuation methods used by the Advocate Appraiser in connection with its determination of fair market value. The
respective fair market values of the Business as determined by the Advocate Appraisers shall each be referred to individually as an “IB Value” and, collectively, as the “IB Values.” In the event the either Member
fails to appoint an Advocate Appraiser and notify the other Member, in writing, of the name and address of its Advocate Appraiser within the initial fifteen (15) day period referred to above in this Section 11.5.5(a), then the
determination of the fair market value of the Business provided in the other Member’s Advocate Appraiser Report shall constitute the fair market value of the Business and the Member failing to so appoint its Advocate Appraiser shall be deemed
to have accepted such fair market value determination. 

  
 29 

 (b) Following the delivery of each Advocate Appraiser Report, the fair market value of the
Business of the Joint Venture shall then be calculated according to the following: 
 (i) If the respective IB Values are within a range of
plus or minus ten percent (10%), the arithmetic average of the two IB Values shall be deemed to be the fair market value of the Business. 

(ii) If the range between the IB Values is greater than plus or minus ten percent (10%), the Advocate Appraisers shall, within fifteen
(15) days following the expiration of the thirty (30) day period referred to in Section 11.5.5(a), jointly (A) select a third appraiser (the “Neutral Appraiser”) to be engaged by the Joint Venture,
(B) notify the Members in writing of the name and address of such Neutral Appraiser, and (C) provide to such Neutral Appraiser copies of the Advocate Appraiser Reports. The Neutral Appraiser shall be a reputable investment banking firm of
national recognition having significant experience in performing valuations of complex business entities and, unless both Members agree after full disclosure, in no event shall the Neutral Appraiser either (1) be currently performing services
for one of the Members or any of its Affiliates other than of a nominal nature; or (2) have, during the five (5) years prior to the calculation of fair market value, received fees in the aggregate amount of One Hundred Thousand Dollars
($100,000) or more from either Member or any of their respective Affiliates. If the Advocate Appraisers fail to select a Neutral Appraiser within such fifteen (15) day period, then either Member may initiate an arbitration proceeding with a
single arbitrator in accordance with the arbitration procedures to be mutually agreed upon by the Parties and set forth in Exhibit 13.2, and the arbitrator in such proceeding shall appoint the Neutral Appraiser. Within thirty
(30) days following the date of the designation or appointment of the Neutral Appraiser, the Neutral Appraiser shall prepare its determination of the fair market value of the Business as of the date of determination and shall communicate such
determination to each of the Members, in writing, together with a report (the “Neutral Appraiser Report”) describing in reasonable detail the assumptions and valuation methods used or relied upon in making such determination. The
final fair market value of the Business shall be the arithmetic average of the 

  
 30 

 
two valuations out of the three valuations delivered that are closest to each other; provided, however, that in the event that one of the three valuations is the arithmetic average
of the other two valuations, then the final fair market value of the Business shall be equal to such valuation that constitutes the arithmetic average of the other two valuations. 

(c) Each Member shall be responsible for the engagement of its designated Advocate Appraiser. The Members shall be jointly responsible for the
engagement of the Agreed Appraiser or the Neutral Appraiser and each Member agrees to authorize and use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Joint Venture to engage any Agreed Appraiser or Neutral Appraiser designated or appointed pursuant
to this Section 11.5.5. Each Member shall be responsible for the payment of all fees, expenses, reimbursements and indemnities of its Advocate Appraiser. Responsibility for the fees, expenses, reimbursements and indemnities of the Agreed
Appraiser or Neutral Appraiser shall be shared by the Members in proportion to their respective interests in the Joint Venture. 
 (d) The
Joint Venture shall, and each Member shall cooperate with one another to cause the Joint Venture to, provide such financial and other information and related assistance regarding the Joint Venture and its subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested
by the Advocate Appraisers and any Neutral Appraiser for the purposes of performing their respective valuations of the Business pursuant to this Section 11.5.5. 

11.5.6. All Relevant Factors. In determining fair market value of the Business of the Joint Venture, the Appraisers shall take
into account all relevant factors. Each Member may supply the Appraisers a list of or information on those factors which the Member believes might add to or detract from the fair market value of the Business of the Joint Venture as it will be
continued by the Member who has made such election to continue. 
 11.6. Operations Pending
Liquidation/Buy-Out. Each Member shall continue to use commercially reasonable efforts to operate or support the operation of the Joint Venture as a going business until liquidation or buy-out. 

  
 31 

 11.7. Continuing Sales Representation; Continuing Steel Supply and Steel Supply
Sourcing Services. 
 (a) If an entity other than a Member Corporation of the Member Group of which Armstrong is a part is to
continue to operate the Business of the Joint Venture, Armstrong agrees to continue to sell Grid for such entity (including the Joint Venture as continued) pursuant to the Sales Representation Agreement, at the fee arrangement last in place, for a
minimum period of time after termination of the Joint Venture, if such entity requests. Such minimum period shall be (i) three years if WVI or one of its Member Corporations continues the Business and (ii) one year if a third party
continues the Business. In addition, Armstrong agrees to transfer or otherwise make available to the Joint Venture, whenever the sales representation by Armstrong is to end (whether at the end of the minimum period or before such time) a sufficient
number of sales employees who had been selling Grid so as to provide reasonable coverage of the accounts being sold and the territories where the Joint Venture’s Grid is being sold. Any such transfer or temporary use of sales employees will be
effected in good faith and in a manner which is fair and reasonable to both parties. The parties acknowledge that customer lists, contracts, advertising and marketing information, and similar items are property of the Joint Venture. 

(b) If an entity other than a Member Corporation of the Member Group of which Worthington is a part is to continue the Business of the Joint
Venture, Worthington will, if any such entity so requests, cause Worthington Steel to continue (to the extent it is doing so for the Joint Venture at the time of termination) to (i) supply prime steel to such entity at the prices and on the
other terms and conditions set forth in Section 5.4 and (ii) provide Steel Supply Sourcing Services to such entity for any items of steel not then being supplied to the Joint Venture by Worthington Steel in accordance with
Section 5.4, for a minimum period of time after termination of the Joint Venture. Such minimum period shall be (A) three years if AVI or one of its Member Corporations continues the Business and (B) one year if a third party continues
the Business. The parties acknowledge that supplier lists, supplier contact and pricing information and any similar items obtained, used or developed at any time in connection with the providing of any Steel Supply Sourcing Services, to the extent
exclusive to the Joint Venture, are the property of the Joint Venture. 

  
 32 

 11.8. Transition Period. In the event there is a termination of the Joint Venture
and either of the Members will continue the Business of the Joint Venture, the party who will not be continuing the Business of the Joint Venture agrees to continue providing services it had otherwise provided to the Joint Venture for a period not
to exceed six months (or such longer period of time as may be provided elsewhere in this Agreement or in the Related Agreements) as may be necessary in order to permit a smooth transition. 

11.9. Necessary Approvals. The provisions as to liquidation of the Joint Venture and the purchase of the Business of the Joint
Venture shall be subject to any necessary governmental approvals, and the Members shall agree upon such reasonable extensions of time with respect to such provisions as may be reasonably necessary in order to obtain any such approvals. 

11.10. 
 ARTICLE 12

 Relationship between the Members and the Venture 

12.1. Competition. 

12.1.1. Acknowledgement of Business Situation. Each Member acknowledges that each Member and its Affiliates now are and/or
hereinafter may be engaged in other businesses. The Members agree that neither Member shall be required to bring any business opportunities to the attention of the other Member or the Joint Venture, provided, however, that the Members
must bring any business opportunities relating to the production and sale of Core Products to the attention of the Joint Venture. 

12.1.2. Non-Competition in Core Products; Non-Inducement of Key Employees. Subject to
the exceptions set forth in Sections 5.2.2, 12.1.4 and 12.8, each Member, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, expressly agrees that it, and they, will not directly or indirectly: (a) compete with the Joint Venture in the production or sale
of Core Products anywhere in the world (a “Competing Business”), inasmuch as it is the specific intent of the Members and their Affiliates that this Joint Venture shall be the sole vehicle for their production and sale and/or
sourcing of Core Products throughout the world; or (b) induce any person who is an executive or key employee of the Joint Venture (defined to include the CEO, any direct report

prior to the commencement of any employment discussions or other similar discussions with such former employee. The foregoing non-inducement restriction shall not prohibit either Member or any of their respective Affiliates from
merely conducting general solicitations for employees or public advertising of employment opportunities (including, but not limited to, through the use of employment or placement agencies) that is not specifically directed at any management
employee of the Joint Venture or the Joint Venture’s employees generally. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in all cases, the provisions of Section 5.2.2 shall control in the event of any conflict with the provisions of this Section.

given notice of such interest to the Board of Directors and the Board of Directors has approved or ratified such dealing. 
 12.1.4.

(B) the Competitive Segment is not a key purpose of the acquisition, and (ii) the 

  
 34 

 
acquiring Member Corporation will, as soon as reasonably practical following the acquisition of such Competitive Segment (and in no event more than nine (9) months after said acquisition),
either (a) sell the Competitive Segment to the Joint Venture (at a purchase price reflecting fair value attributable to such Competitive Segment), with the Joint Venture having a right of first opportunity for such purchase (which shall be
initiated by written notice from such acquiring Member promptly following the closing of the acquisition) or (b) discontinue such Competitive Segment or sell it to a third party (in the event the Joint Venture does not exercise its first
opportunity purchase right within ninety (90) days following the date of written notice or if the parties fail to consummate such a sale within one hundred twenty (120) days following such notice and are no longer actively engaged in good
faith negotiations for such sale). 
 If a Member Corporation acquires ownership of a Competing Segment covered by this Section 12.1.4,
it shall be permitted to continue to operate the Competitive Segment of the acquired business in the ordinary course of business during the aforementioned disposition process (not to exceed the nine (9) month disposition process period),
provided it does not expand the size or capacity of such Competitive Segment, does not add any new products to such Competitive Segment and does not utilize any of the relationships, strategies or information available to it as a Member of the Joint
Venture to compete directly with the Joint Venture in the production or sale of Core Products, unless approved in writing by the Joint Venture. 

12.2. Relation to General Partnership Law. To the extent the provisions of this Agreement are inconsistent with the General
Partnership Law as it relates to the Joint Venture, the provisions of this Agreement shall apply. In particular, but not in limitation of the foregoing, the Members agree that neither Member shall be required to bring any business opportunities to
the attention of the other Member, except as provided in Section 12.1.1. 
 12.3. Members’ Actions. No Member shall
do anything whereby the capital or the property of the Joint Venture may be attached, taken in execution, or otherwise impaired, and each Member punctually shall pay its separate debts and indemnify the other Member against any losses or damages
incurred as a result of separate debts of the Member. Any expenses incurred by the Joint Venture in defending or meeting obligations of an individual Member shall be chargeable to that individual Member. 

  
 35 

 12.4. Limitation on Member’s and Director’s Authority. 

12.4.1. Except as specifically authorized herein or in an agreement executed concurrently herewith, neither Member nor any individual
serving as a member of the Board of Directors shall have any authority to act, and neither Member nor any such director shall act or hold itself out as having authority: (a) to act as agent of the Joint Venture in any matter; or (b) to
convey any interest in any property of any kind, without regard to who holds title thereto, which is used in the conduct of the Joint Venture, in either case unless the Board of Directors delegates specific authority to the Member or such director
to act as agent for the Joint Venture in the particular matter. 
 12.4.2. Unless otherwise provided herein or in an agreement
executed concurrently herewith, no Member or individual serving as a member of the Board of Directors, without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors, shall draw, accept or endorse any bill of exchange or promissory note on account of
the Joint Venture, compromise any claim of the Joint Venture, for any reason, or confess judgment against the Joint Venture. 
 12.5.
Use of Name. Neither Member shall have the right to use the name of the Joint Venture or any similar variation of such name in connection with any product, service or business without the written consent of the other Member. 

12.6. Enforcement. A Member shall be entitled to enforce any rights of the Joint Venture against the other Member (or an
Affiliate thereof) without the consent of such other Member. 
 12.7. Equitable Relief. The Members and the Joint Venture each
acknowledge and agree they would be irreparably harmed in the event that any of the provisions of Article 8 or Sections 12.1.2, 12.1.4, 12.8 or 12.9 of this Agreement are not complied with or otherwise breached by a Member or any of its
Affiliates or by the Joint Venture, as applicable. Accordingly, it is understood and agreed that money damages will not be a sufficient remedy for any such breach of this Agreement and that the Joint Venture or the respective Members (as
appropriate) shall be entitled to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach, and the Joint Venture and each of the Members further agrees 

  
 36 

 
to waive, on behalf of itself and its respective Affiliates, any requirement for the providing of any security or the posting of any bond (other than a nominal bond or other nominal security
required under applicable law) in connection with such remedy. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for any such breach of this Agreement, but will be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to the Joint
Venture and the respective Members, as appropriate. 
 12.8 AWI Specialty Ceilings Businesses; Guiding Principles. The Parties
recognize that AWI and its Affiliates are currently engaged in businesses that design, develop, produce, market and sell Specialty Ceilings, and that such Specialty Ceilings require or may require Grid or Grid-Type Products, and that AWI or its
Affiliates may acquire additional Specialty Ceilings businesses in the future (collectively “Specialty Ceilings Businesses”). The Parties further recognize that as the Joint Venture’s business develops, the Joint Venture’s
products and sales efforts will be aligned with those of AWI and its Affiliates, particularly with respect to its ceiling and Specialty Ceilings products. Accordingly, to promote alignment between the business and product development efforts of the
Joint Venture and the Specialty Ceilings Businesses of AWI, the Members and the Board of Directors have adopted and approved the Guiding Principles attached hereto as Exhibit 12.8 to set forth certain parameters and procedures designed
to provide guidance on how the Joint Venture and Armstrong would appropriately interact in these and other situations where they may have mutual interest or a potential conflict of interest as to the alignment of their businesses (“Guiding
Principles”). The Board of Directors may from time to time by unanimous approval adopt other Guiding Principles to provide guidance on how the Joint Venture and Armstrong would appropriately interact in these and other situations where they may
have mutual interest or a potential conflict of interest as to the alignment of their businesses. These Guiding Principles may also be amended from time-to-time by the Board of Directors by unanimous approval of the Board of Directors. 

12.9 Grid Supply for Specialty Ceilings Businesses. AVI shall cause AWI and its Affiliates to agree that, subject in all
respects to any then-existing commitments or obligations to other suppliers of Core Products, Grid or Grid-Type Products in the case of a Purchased Business, AWI and its Affiliates will afford to the Joint Venture the first right to supply the
respective requirements for Core Products or such other Grid or Grid-Type Products for any 

  
 37 

 
Specialty Ceilings Businesses. Notwithstanding the above as to items which are not Core Products, the Joint Venture may exercise its election under this Section only with respect to those items
as to which the Joint Venture is competitive in price, quality, performance, service and other material terms (taken as a whole) with respect to such item or items. If the Joint Venture does not elect to supply any item of Grid or Grid-Type
Products, or any portion thereof, or if the Joint Venture does not meet the provisions of the prior sentence as to any such item which is not a Core Product, then the Specialty Ceilings Business shall be free to purchase from other parties for use
in Specialty Ceilings, any such item, or the portion of such item, not being supplied by the Joint Venture, which is not a Core Product. 

ARTICLE 13 
 Dispute
Resolution 
 13.1. Initial Procedure. Any, claim, dispute, difference or controversy arising out of or relative to
this Agreement or the operation of the Joint Venture which cannot be settled by mutual understanding between the parties, shall be initially submitted to a member of the Executive Committee of AWI, or his delegate, on behalf of AVI and a member of
the Executive Committee of WII or his delegate, on behalf of WVI. The said persons shall promptly meet and use their best efforts to resolve the claim, dispute, difference or controversy. 

13.2. Formal Dispute Resolution. Subject to Section 12.7 hereof and except as hereinafter provided in this
Section 13.2, should any such claim, dispute, difference or controversy not be resolved as provided in Section 13.1 hereof within fifteen (15) business days of submission to the respective persons designated by the parties pursuant to
Section 13.1 hereof, then, at the election of either party, the parties shall first be required to endeavor to achieve a resolution of such claim, dispute, difference or controversy by non-binding mediation administered by the American
Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Procedures before resorting to arbitration, litigation, or some other dispute resolution procedure. The party which elects to seek resolution of such claim, dispute, difference or controversy by
mediation shall, notify the other party in writing of such election. Any such notice shall describe in reasonable detail the subject matter of such claim, dispute, difference or controversy, and include a statement of such party’s position and
a summary of the arguments supporting that 

  
 38 

 
position and the relief sought, and shall also identify the names of three (3) prospective, independent, neutral mediators and include a statement of their respective curricula vitae.
Each of such prospective mediators shall be a member of the American Arbitration Association National Roster of Arbitrators and Mediators and have experience in complex commercial matters, including, if practicable, joint ventures. Within ten
(10) business days following its receipt of such notice, the recipient party shall submit to the other party a written response, which response shall include a reasonably detailed statement of the recipient party’s position regarding the
dispute identified by the notifying party and a summary of the arguments supporting that position. Any such response shall also include the name, selected from the list of prospective mediators provided by the notifying party, of the individual who
will act as the mediator in the dispute identified by the notifying party. The parties shall meet with the selected mediator in the City of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania or such other location as the parties may mutually agree within thirty
(30) business days after the recipient party has received notice of the dispute and shall proceed diligently and in good faith, using commercially reasonable efforts, to resolve the matters in dispute. The mediation shall not continue longer
than one (1) hearing day without the written approval of both parties. Neither party shall be bound by any recommendation of the mediator. One or more senior executives from each party shall personally participate in the mediation proceedings
contemplated herein and shall endeavor to achieve a resolution of the dispute though mutual agreement. The senior executives, who shall have full authority to decide on behalf of and bind their respective entities, shall allocate at least one
(1) full business day of their time for the mediation process on any such claim, dispute, difference or controversy submitted to mediation hereunder. Such senior executives may be represented by counsel in connection with any such mediation
proceedings and, in addition, either party may, with permission of the mediator, bring such additional persons as are needed to respond to questions, contribute information or participate in the negotiations. The fees and expenses of the mediator
and the American Arbitration Association shall be shared equally by both parties. The mediator shall be disqualified as a witness, consultant, expert or counsel for any party with respect to any such claim, dispute, difference or controversy and any
related matters. All offers, promises, conduct and statements, whether oral or written, made in the course of the mediation by any of the parties, their agents, employees, experts and attorneys, and by the mediator or any employees of the American
Arbitration Association, are confidential, 

  
 39 

 privileged and inadmissible for any purpose, including, but not limited to, impeachment, in any arbitration,
litigation or other proceeding related to this Agreement, provided, however, that evidence that is otherwise admissible or discoverable shall not be rendered inadmissible or non-discoverable as a result of its use in the mediation. At no time prior
to or during the mediation shall either party initiate an arbitration or litigation related to this Agreement except to pursue a provisional remedy that is authorized by law or by agreement of the parties. However, this limitation is inapplicable to
a party if the other party refuses to comply with the requirements of Section 13.1 or this Section 13.2. All applicable statutes of limitation and defenses based upon the passage of time shall be tolled until fifteen (15) business
days after the completion of the mediation and the parties shall take such action, if any, required to effectuate such tolling. If any such claim, dispute, difference or controversy is not resolved by such mediation, either party may pursue such
rights and remedies as may be available to either of them under this Agreement or at law or in equity. 
 13.3. Injunctive
Relief. Nothing in this Article 13 shall preclude any party, at any time, from taking or requesting any judicial or other authority in any country to order any provisional or conservatory measure, including pre-award attachment, injunction
or similar remedy for the presentation of its rights and interests.

 Exhibit 4.2 

UNITED TECHNOLOGIES CORPORATION 

Designated Officers’ Certificate 

February 22, 2016 
 We, David R. Whitehouse,
Corporate Vice President, Treasurer of United Technologies Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Akhil Johri, Executive Vice President & Chief Financial Officer of the Company, pursuant to authority granted by
resolutions (the “Resolutions”) of the Board of Directors of the Company adopted December 9, 2015, approve the Underwriting Agreement, dated February 12, 2016 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), and the Pricing
Agreement, dated February 12, 2016 (the “Pricing Agreement”), each between the Company and BNP Paribas, Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, HSBC Bank plc, J.P. Morgan Securities plc, Barclays Bank PLC, Citigroup Global Markets Limited,
Goldman, Sachs & Co., Merrill Lynch International, BNY Mellon Capital Markets, LLC, Mitsubishi UFJ Securities International plc, Mizuho International plc, RBC Europe Limited, UniCredit Bank AG, Wells Fargo Securities International Limited, Banco
Santander, S.A., Commerzbank Aktiegesellschaft, SMBC Nikko Capital Markets Limited, Société Générale, Standard Chartered Bank and The Williams Capital Group, L.P., as Underwriters, attached hereto as Exhibits A and
B, respectively; and authorize the issue and sale on or after the date hereof of the Company’s Securities pursuant to the Amended and Restated Indenture dated as of May 1, 2001, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A., successor to The Bank of New York, as Trustee (the “Indenture”), with the following terms: 
 (a) The
Securities hereby being authorized shall be known and designated as the 1.125% Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”), the 1.875% notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes” and, together with the 2021 Notes, the “Fixed
Rate Notes”) and the Floating Rate Notes due 2018 (the “Floating Rate Notes” and, together with the Fixed Rate Notes, the “Notes”). The Notes shall be issued only in minimum denominations of €100,000
and in integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof. 
 (b) The aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes, the 2026
Notes and the Floating Rate Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture shall be limited to €950,000,000, €500,000,000 and €750,000,000, respectively (except as noted in Section 301(2) of the Indenture), subject
to reopening pursuant to the last sentence of the penultimate paragraph of Section 301 of the Indenture. 
 (c) The public
offering price per 2021 Note shall be 99.255% of the principal amount of the 2021 Notes, the public offering price per 2026 Note shall be 98.743% of the principal amount of the 2026 Notes and the public offering price per Floating Rate Note shall be
100.000% of the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes. The proceeds to the Company (after deducting the underwriting discounts and commissions but before deducting certain expenses payable by the Company) shall be 98.885% of the aggregate
principal amount of the 2021 Notes, 98.293% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes and 99.800% of the aggregate principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes. 

 (d) The Notes shall be issued as permanent global notes without coupons (each, a
“Global Note”), registered in the name of a nominee of, and deposited with, a common depositary for the accounts of Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream”) and Euroclear Bank S.A/N.V.
(“Euroclear”). The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch) shall initially serve as the Common Depositary for such Global Notes. A Global Note shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes in registered form, bearing interest at the
same rate, having the same date of issuance, Stated Maturity and other terms and of differing denominations aggregating a like amount, only if (i) the depositary for any of the Global Notes notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as depositary and the Company is unable to find a qualified replacement within 90 days, (ii) the Company in its sole discretion determines that all such Global Notes shall be exchangeable for definitive Notes in registered form or (iii) any
event shall have occurred and be continuing which after notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. Such definitive Notes shall be registered in the names of the owners of the beneficial interests in
such Global Note as provided by Euroclear and Clearstream’s relevant participants (as such participants are identified by Euroclear and Clearstream). Subject to the foregoing, each Global Note shall not be exchangeable, except for a Global Note
of like denomination to be registered in the name of the Common Depositary or its nominee. 
 (e) The principal of the 2021
Notes shall be payable on December 15, 2021, the principal of the 2026 Notes shall be payable on February 22, 2026 and the principal of the Floating Rate Notes shall be payable on February 22, 2018, in each case, subject to the provisions of the
Indenture respecting acceleration. 
 (f) Interest on the Fixed Rate Notes will be computed on the basis of the actual number
of days in the period for which interest is being calculated and the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid on the Fixed Rate Notes (or February 22, 2016 if no interest has been paid on the Fixed Rate
Notes), to but excluding the next Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date. This payment convention is referred to as ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) as defined in the rulebook of the International Capital Market Association. If the date on which a payment of interest
or principal on the Fixed Rate Notes is scheduled to be paid is not a Business Day, then that interest or principal will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, and no further interest will accrue as a result of such delay. Interest will be
payable on the Fixed Rate Notes annually in arrears on December 15 of each year with respect to the 2021 Notes and February 22 of each year with respect to the 2026 Notes, and at the relevant Maturity Date, at the rate per annum of 1.125% for the
2021 Notes and at the rate per annum of 1.875% for the 2026 Notes, commencing December 15, 2016 for the 2021 Notes and February 22, 2017 for the 2026 Notes (each a “Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date”), to the Person in whose name
such Fixed Rate Notes are registered on the Record Date; provided, however, that interest payable on the relevant Maturity Date or any relevant Redemption Date will be payable to the Person to whom the principal of such notes is
payable. 
 (g) The amount of interest for each day that the Floating Rate Notes are outstanding (the “Daily Interest
Amount”) will be calculated by dividing the floating 

  
 2 

 
interest rate in effect for such day by 360 and multiplying the result by the principal amount of the Floating Rate Notes (known as the “Actual/360” day count). The amount of interest
to be paid on the Floating Rate Notes for any interest period will be calculated by adding the Daily Interest Amounts for each day in such interest period. The interest rate on the Floating Rate Notes for each day of an interest period will be a
rate equal to EURIBOR as determined on the Interest Determination Date plus 0.80% per year, provided, however, that in no event shall the interest rate be less than zero, as more fully set forth in the Notes. Interest will be payable
on the Floating Rate Notes quarterly in arrears on February 22, May 22, August 22 and November 22 of each year, and on the Maturity Date, commencing on May 22, 2016 (each a “Floating Rate Interest Payment Date”), to the Person in
whose name such Floating Rate Note is registered on the Record Date; provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date will be payable to the Person to whom the principal of such notes is payable. If
a Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date or any earlier Redemption Date) is not a Business Day, then such Floating Rate Interest Payment Date shall be the next succeeding Business Day, unless the next succeeding Business
Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, in which case such Floating Rate Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the Maturity Date or any earlier Redemption Date of the Floating Rate Notes falls on a day
that is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and interest, if any, otherwise payable on such date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue from and after the Maturity Date or earlier
Redemption Date, as applicable. 
 (h) The Fixed Rate Notes shall be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the
Company prior to maturity, and any series of the Notes shall be redeemable in whole, but not in part, at the option of the Company at any time in the event of certain developments affecting U.S. taxation, in each case, as provided in the Notes. 

(i) The Notes are not subject to any mandatory redemption provision. 

(j) The Notes shall not be subject to any sinking fund or analogous provision and shall not be repayable at the option of a
Holder thereof prior to maturity. 
 (k) The provisions of Section 1402 and Section 1403 of the Indenture relating to
defeasance and covenant defeasance, respectively, shall apply to the Notes. Pursuant to Section 1404(5) and Section 1404(6) of the Indenture, any such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be conditioned on receipt of an Opinion of Counsel
relating to the federal income tax consequences of such defeasance or covenant defeasance. 
 (l) The Bank of New York Mellon
Trust Company, N.A. will serve as the Trustee and Security Registrar. 
 (m) The Paying Agent for the Notes, and the
Calculation Agent for the Floating Rate Notes, will be The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch). Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon notice to the Trustee, the Company may change the Paying Agent, the Securities Registrar and/or the Calculation
Agent. 

  
 3 

 (n) The Company will be obligated to pay additional amounts on the Notes as set
forth in the Notes (such amounts, the “Additional Amounts”). 
 (o) Payment of the principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on the Notes will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the City of London, England, which shall be initially the corporate trust office of The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch),
located at One Canada Square, London, England E14 5AL; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of principal or interest may be made by wire transfer to an account designated by the Person entitled thereto or by
check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, in either case in same-day funds. 

(p) Payments of principal, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, in respect of the Notes will be payable in euro. If
the euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control (including the dissolution of the euro) or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of
the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of the applicable Notes will be made
in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second
Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the basis of the then most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate available on or prior to the second Business
Day prior to the relevant payment date as determined by the Company in the Company’s sole discretion. Any payment in respect of the Notes so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither
the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing. 

(q) Solely with respect to the Notes: 

“Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions are
authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed in New York City or London and which is a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system (the “TARGET2 system”), or any
successor thereto, operates. 
 “Interest Determination Date” means, for the initial interest period, February 18, 2016 and
for any other interest period, the second TARGET2 system day preceding the relevant Interest Reset Date (as defined in the Floating Rate Note). 

“Record Date” means the close of business on the date that is fifteen calendar days prior to the date on which interest is
scheduled to be paid, regardless of whether such date is a Business Day; provided that if any of the notes are held by a securities depositary in book-entry form, the Record Date for such Notes will be

  
 4 

 
the close of business on the Business Day (for this purpose a day on which Clearstream and Euroclear are open for business) immediately preceding the date on which interest is scheduled to be
paid. 
 “TARGET2 system day” is any day on which the TARGET2 system, or any successor thereto, operates. 

(r) A form of each of the 2021 Notes, the 2026 Notes and the Floating Rate Notes is attached hereto as Exhibits C-1, C-2 and
C-3, respectively, and are hereby approved. 
 Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to
them in the Indenture.

 UNITED TECHNOLOGIES

anonyme (“Clearstream”), the principal sum of NINE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION EUROS (€950,000,000), or such other principal sum as shall be specified in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Security attached hereto,
on December 15, 2021 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon from February 22, 2016 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, annually in arrears on December 15 of
each year and on the Maturity Date, commencing on December 15, 2016 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), at the rate of 1.125% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest on this Security will
be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the period for which interest is being calculated and the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid on this Security (or February 22, 2016 if no
interest has been paid on this Security), to but excluding the next scheduled Interest Payment Date. This payment convention is referred to as 

 
ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) as defined in the rulebook of the International Capital Market Association. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered on the Regular Record Date; provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date or any
Redemption Date will be payable to the Person to whom the principal of this Security is payable. If the date on which a payment of interest or principal is scheduled to be paid is not a Business Day, then that interest or principal will be paid
on the next succeeding Business Day, and no further interest will accrue as a result of such delay. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and
may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice
whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such
Securities may be listed, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. This Security is a Security for purposes of the Indenture. 
 For purposes of
this Security: 
 “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking
institutions are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed in New York City or London and which is a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system (the “TARGET2
system”), or any successor thereto, operates. 
 “Regular Record Date” means the close of business on the date that is fifteen
calendar days prior to the date on which interest is scheduled to be paid, regardless of whether such date is a Business Day; provided that if this Security is held by a securities depositary in book-entry form, the Regular Record Date for
this Security will be the close of business on the Business Day (for this purpose a day on which Clearstream and Euroclear are open for business) immediately preceding the date on which interest is scheduled to be paid. 

Payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose
in the City of London, England, which shall be initially the corporate trust office of The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch), located at One Canada Square, London, England E14 5AL; provided, however, that at the option of the

either case in same-day funds. 
 All payments on this Security will be payable in euro. If the euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of
exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control (including the dissolution of the euro) or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their
currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, 

  
 2 

 
then all payments in respect of this Security will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in euro will be converted
into U.S. dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion,
on the basis of the then most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate available on or prior to the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date as determined by the Company in the Company’s sole discretion. Any payment in respect of
this Security so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series or under the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or
conversion in connection with the foregoing. 
 “euro” and “€” mean the lawful currency of the member states of the
European Monetary Union that have adopted or that adopt the single currency in accordance with the treaty establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union. 

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the
same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse
hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 [REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one
or more series under an Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of May 1, 2001, as it may be supplemented from time to time (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.
(formerly The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), as Trustee (successor to The Bank of New York) (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of which this
Security is a part), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities or the Securities of this
series that may be issued thereunder. Additional Securities of this series may be issued from time to time hereafter; provided that any such additional Securities that are not fungible with this Security for U.S. federal income tax purposes
will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN and other identifying number than this Security. 
 The Company may, at its option, redeem all or any part of this
Security. If it chooses to do so, it shall mail or electronically deliver, according to the procedures of the applicable depositary, notice of redemption to the Holder hereof (with a copy to the Trustee and the Paying Agent) not less than 30
days and not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date. If this Security is redeemed prior to September 15, 2021, the Redemption Price shall equal the greater of: 

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed; or 

(ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments of principal and interest thereon, discounted to the Redemption Date on
an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)) at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate, plus 25 basis points. 
 In each case, the Redemption Price shall
also include interest accrued to, but excluding the Redemption Date on the principal balance of the Securities of this series to be redeemed. 
 In
addition, at any time on or after September 15, 2021, the Company may redeem some or all of the Securities of this series at its option, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed,
plus, in every such case, interest accrued to, but excluding, the Redemption Date on the principal balance of the Securities of this series to be redeemed. 

In any case, the principal amount of this Security remaining outstanding after a redemption in part shall be €100,000 or an integral multiple of
€1,000 in excess thereof. 
 For purposes of the optional redemption provisions of this Security, the following terms will be applicable: 

“Comparable Government Bond” means, in relation to any Comparable Government Bond Rate calculation, at the discretion of an independent
investment bank selected by the Company, a 

  
 4 

 
German federal government bond whose maturity is closest to the maturity of the Securities of this series to be redeemed, or if such independent investment bank in its discretion determines that
such similar bond is not in issue, such other German federal government bond as such independent investment bank may, with the advice of three brokers of, and/or market makers in, German federal government bonds selected by the Company, determine to
be appropriate for determining the Comparable Government Bond Rate. 
 “Comparable Government Bond Rate” means, with respect to any
Redemption Date, the price, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, with 0.0005 being rounded upwards), at which the gross redemption yield on the Securities of this series to be redeemed, if they were to be purchased at such
price on the third Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, would be equal to the gross redemption yield on such Business Day of the Comparable Government Bond (as defined above) on the basis of the middle market price of the Comparable Government
Bond prevailing at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Business Day as determined by an independent investment bank selected by the Company. 

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Security of this series being redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest on that Security that would be due after the related Redemption Date but for the redemption. If, however, the Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date with respect to that Security, the amount of the next
succeeding scheduled interest payment on that Security that would have been due will be deemed reduced by the amount of interest accrued on the Security to the Redemption Date. 

On and after any Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue with respect to the Securities of this series, or any portion of the Securities of this
series, called for redemption and for which the Redemption Price has been paid or made available for payment. Prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price on the
Securities of this series to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. If less than all of the Securities of this series are redeemed, the Trustee shall choose the Securities of this series to be redeemed by any method that it deems fair and
appropriate, provided that if the Securities of this series are represented by one or more global Securities, beneficial interests in the Securities of this series will be selected for redemption by Euroclear and Clearstream in accordance with their
respective standard procedures therefor. 
 Notwithstanding Section 1104 of the Indenture, the notice of any redemption referred to herein need not set
forth the Redemption Price therefor but only the manner of calculation thereof. Promptly after the calculation of such Redemption Price, the Company shall give the Trustee notice thereof and the Trustee shall not be responsible for such
calculation. 
 All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Securities of this series by the Company or a Paying Agent on the
Company’s behalf will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other similar governmental charges imposed or levied by the United States or any
political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event such withholding or deduction for Taxes is required by law, subject
to the limitations described below, the Company will pay to any Non-U.S. Holder (as defined below) or any foreign partnership such Additional Amounts as 

  
 5 

 
may be necessary to ensure that the net amount received by such Person, after withholding or deduction for such Taxes, will be equal to the amount such Person would have received in the absence
of such withholding or deduction. However, no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to any Taxes if such Taxes are imposed or levied for reasons unrelated to the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s ownership or disposition of
Securities of this series, nor shall Additional Amounts be payable for or on account of: 
 (1) any Taxes which would not have been so
imposed, withheld or deducted but for: 
 (i) the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder or beneficial owner (or
between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a Person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a
partnership, a corporation or other entity) and the United States, including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or Person having such a power)
being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of the United States, being or having been engaged in a trade or business in the United States, being or having been present in the United States, or having or having had a
permanent establishment in the United States; 
 (ii) the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable
certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement, if compliance is required under the tax laws and regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States to establish
entitlement to a partial or complete exemption from such Taxes (including, but not limited to, the requirement to provide Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (and related documentation) or any subsequent
versions thereof or successor thereto); or 
 (iii) the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal
holding company or a foreign personal holding company with respect to the United States, as a controlled foreign corporation with respect to the United States, as a passive foreign investment company with respect to the United States, as a foreign
tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 

(2) any Taxes which would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner to meet the
requirements (including the certification requirements) of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); 

(3) any Taxes which would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such
Security for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Security is duly provided for and 

  
 6 

 
notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Security on any
date during such 30-day period; 
 (4) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property, wealth or similar Taxes;

 (5) any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from a payment on such Security; 

(6) any Taxes which are imposed, withheld or deducted with respect to, or payable by, a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the
Security, or a portion of the Security, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such
partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the
payment; 
 (7) any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted by any Paying Agent from any payment on any Security of this series, if such
payment can be made without such withholding or deduction by at least one other Paying Agent; 
 (8) any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted
under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code or any fiscal or
regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such sections of the Code; 

(9) any Taxes that would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for a change in any law, treaty, regulation, or administrative or
judicial interpretation that becomes effective after the applicable payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; or 

(10) any combination of items (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8), and (9). 

Any Additional Amounts paid on the Securities of this series will be paid in euro. For purposes of this paragraph and the immediately
preceding paragraph, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement, or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to a Security of this series alone will not constitute a connection (A) between the Holder or beneficial owner and the United
States or (B) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a Person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability
company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and the United States. Except as specifically provided under this paragraph and the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company will not be required to make any payment

  
 7 

 
with respect to any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority. If the Company is required to pay Additional
Amounts with respect to the Securities of this series, the Company will, in accordance with the Indenture, notify the Trustee and Paying Agent pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate that specifies the Additional Amounts payable and when the
Additional Amounts are payable. If the Trustee and the Paying Agent do not receive such an Officers’ Certificate from the Company, the Trustee and Paying Agent may rely on the absence of such an Officers’ Certificate in assuming that no
such Additional Amounts are payable. 
 For purposes of this Security, (i) “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is
neither a U.S. Holder (as defined below) nor a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (ii) “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (A) an individual who is a
citizen or resident of the United States; (B) a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state within the United States, or
the District of Columbia; (C) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or (D) a trust (1) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s
administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. 
 The Company may redeem the Securities of this series at its option, in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed, together with any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of this series to be redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, at any time, if: (1) the Company has or will
become obliged to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws, regulations, treaties, or rulings of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States or any
taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in, or amendment to, the application, official interpretation, administration or enforcement of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings (including a holding by a court of
competent jurisdiction in the United States), which change or amendment is enacted, adopted, announced or becomes effective on or after February 12, 2016; or (2) on or after February 12, 2016, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any
action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (1) above,
whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a
material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel described
in clause (B) of the second succeeding sentence below to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent). Notice of any such redemption will be mailed, or delivered electronically if held by or on behalf of any depositary in accordance
with such depositary’s customary procedures, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each registered Holder of the Securities of this series to be redeemed; provided, however, that the notice of
redemption shall not be given earlier than 90 days before the earliest date on 

  
 8 

 
which the Company would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Securities of this series was then due. Prior to the mailing or delivery of any notice of
redemption pursuant to this paragraph, the Company will deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent: (A) a certificate signed by one of the Company’s officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a
statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the Company’s right to so redeem have occurred, and (B) a written opinion of independent tax counsel of nationally recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become
obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of a change or amendment described in clause (1) above or that there is a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts as a result of an action, change,
amendment, clarification, application or interpretation described in clause (2) above, as the case may be. Such notice of redemption, once delivered by the Company will be irrevocable. 

This Security is not repayable at the option of the Holder hereof and is not subject to the operation of any sinking fund. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared
due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The provisions of Section 1402 and Section 1403 of the Indenture relating to
defeasance and covenant defeasance, respectively, shall apply to this Security. Pursuant to Section 1404(5) and Section 1404(6) of the Indenture, any such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be conditioned on receipt of an Opinion of
Counsel relating to the federal income tax consequences of such defeasance or covenant defeasance. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee
with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount
of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture, and contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages
in principal amount, in certain instances of the Outstanding Securities of individual series and in other instances of all Securities at the time Outstanding, to waive on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such individual series or of the
Holders of all Securities at the time Outstanding, as the case may be, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder
and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security 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 Security. 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default

  
 9 

 
with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount, in certain instances of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding and in other
instances of all Outstanding Securities, shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
to be incurred in compliance with such request, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding or of all Outstanding Securities, as the
case may be, a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by
the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof (and premium, if any) or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay or make provision as provided in Article Fourteen of the Indenture for the payment of the amount of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security herein provided, and 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 and herein set forth, the
transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this
Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of €100,000 and any integral multiple of
€1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different authorized
denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but
the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due
presentment of this Security 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 Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this
Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 All terms used in this Security
that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 UNITED TECHNOLOGIES
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (herein called the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of New York
Depository (Nominees) Limited, the registered Holder hereof, as nominee of The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch) as common depositary for Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, société
anonyme (“Clearstream”), the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION EUROS (€500,000,000), or such other principal sum as shall be specified in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Security attached hereto, on
February 22, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon from February 22, 2016 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, annually in arrears on February 22 of
each year and on the Maturity Date, commencing on February 22, 2017 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), at the rate of 1.875% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest on this Security will
be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the period for which interest is being calculated and the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid on this Security (or February 22, 2016 if no
interest has been paid on this Security), to but excluding the next scheduled Interest Payment Date. This payment convention is referred to as ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA) as defined 

 
in the rulebook of the International Capital Market Association. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such
Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered on the Regular Record Date; provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date will be
payable to the Person to whom the principal of this Security is payable. If the date on which a payment of interest or principal is scheduled to be paid is not a Business Day, then that interest or principal will be paid on the next succeeding
Business Day, and no further interest will accrue as a result of such delay. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to
the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to
Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed,
all as more fully provided in said Indenture. This Security is a Security for purposes of the Indenture. 
 For purposes of this Security: 

“Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or
obligated by law or executive order to be closed in New York City or London and which is a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system (the “TARGET2 system”), or any successor
thereto, operates. 
 “Regular Record Date” means the close of business on the date that is fifteen calendar days prior to the date on
which interest is scheduled to be paid, regardless of whether such date is a Business Day; provided that if this Security is held by a securities depositary in book-entry form, the Regular Record Date for this Security will be the close of
business on the Business Day (for this purpose a day on which Clearstream and Euroclear are open for business) immediately preceding the date on which interest is scheduled to be paid. 

Payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose
in the City of London, England, which shall be initially the corporate trust office of The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch), located at One Canada Square, London, England E14 5AL; provided, however, that at the option of the
Company payment of principal or interest may be made by wire transfer to an account designated by the Person entitled thereto or by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, in
either case in same-day funds. 
 All payments on this Security will be payable in euro. If the euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of
exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control (including the dissolution of the euro) or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their
currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of this Security will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro is

  
 2 

 
again available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of
business on the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the basis of the then most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate available on or prior
to the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date as determined by the Company in the Company’s sole discretion. Any payment in respect of this Security so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default with respect to
the Securities of this series or under the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing. 

“euro” and “€” mean the lawful currency of the member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted or that
adopt the single currency in accordance with the treaty establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union. 
 Reference is
hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall
not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. 
 This Security shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the law of the State of New York.

 [REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one
or more series under an Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of May 1, 2001, as it may be supplemented from time to time (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.
(formerly The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), as Trustee (successor to The Bank of New York) (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of which this
Security is a part), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities or the Securities of this
series that may be issued thereunder. Additional Securities of this series may be issued from time to time hereafter; provided that any such additional Securities that are not fungible with this Security for U.S. federal income tax purposes
will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN and other identifying number than this Security. 
 The Company may, at its option, redeem all or any part of this
Security. If it chooses to do so, it shall mail or electronically deliver, according to the procedures of the applicable depositary, notice of redemption to the Holder hereof (with a copy to the Trustee and the Paying Agent) not less than 30
days and not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date. If this Security is redeemed prior to November 22, 2025, the Redemption Price shall equal the greater of: 

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed; or 

(ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments of principal and interest thereon, discounted to the Redemption Date on
an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)) at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate, plus 30 basis points. 
 In each case, the Redemption Price shall
also include interest accrued to, but excluding the Redemption Date on the principal balance of the Securities of this series to be redeemed. 
 In
addition, at any time on or after November 22, 2025, the Company may redeem some or all of the Securities of this series at its option, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed,
plus, in every such case, interest accrued to, but excluding, the Redemption Date on the principal balance of the Securities of this series to be redeemed. 

In any case, the principal amount of this Security remaining outstanding after a redemption in part shall be €100,000 or an integral multiple of
€1,000 in excess thereof. 
 For purposes of the optional redemption provisions of this Security, the following terms will be applicable: 

“Comparable Government Bond” means, in relation to any Comparable Government Bond Rate calculation, at the discretion of an independent
investment bank selected by the Company, a 

  
 4 

 
German federal government bond whose maturity is closest to the maturity of the Securities of this series to be redeemed, or if such independent investment bank in its discretion determines that
such similar bond is not in issue, such other German federal government bond as such independent investment bank may, with the advice of three brokers of, and/or market makers in, German federal government bonds selected by the Company, determine to
be appropriate for determining the Comparable Government Bond Rate. 
 “Comparable Government Bond Rate” means, with respect to any
Redemption Date, the price, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, with 0.0005 being rounded upwards), at which the gross redemption yield on the Securities of this series to be redeemed, if they were to be purchased at such
price on the third Business Day prior to the Redemption Date, would be equal to the gross redemption yield on such Business Day of the Comparable Government Bond (as defined above) on the basis of the middle market price of the Comparable Government
Bond prevailing at 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Business Day as determined by an independent investment bank selected by the Company. 

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Security of this series being redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest on that Security that would be due after the related Redemption Date but for the redemption. If, however, the Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date with respect to that Security, the amount of the next
succeeding scheduled interest payment on that Security that would have been due will be deemed reduced by the amount of interest accrued on the Security to the Redemption Date. 

On and after any Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue with respect to the Securities of this series, or any portion of the Securities of this
series, called for redemption and for which the Redemption Price has been paid or made available for payment. Prior to any Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with the Paying Agent money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price on the
Securities of this series to be redeemed on such Redemption Date. If less than all of the Securities of this series are redeemed, the Trustee shall choose the Securities of this series to be redeemed by any method that it deems fair and
appropriate, provided that if the Securities of this series are represented by one or more global Securities, beneficial interests in the Securities of this series will be selected for redemption by Euroclear and Clearstream in accordance with their
respective standard procedures therefor. 
 Notwithstanding Section 1104 of the Indenture, the notice of any redemption referred to herein need not set
forth the Redemption Price therefor but only the manner of calculation thereof. Promptly after the calculation of such Redemption Price, the Company shall give the Trustee notice thereof and the Trustee shall not be responsible for such
calculation. 
 All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Securities of this series by the Company or a Paying Agent on the
Company’s behalf will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other similar governmental charges imposed or levied by the United States or any
political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event such withholding or deduction for Taxes is required by law, subject
to the limitations described below, the Company will pay to any Non-U.S. Holder (as defined below) or any foreign partnership such Additional Amounts as 

  
 5 

 
may be necessary to ensure that the net amount received by such Person, after withholding or deduction for such Taxes, will be equal to the amount such Person would have received in the absence
of such withholding or deduction. However, no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to any Taxes if such Taxes are imposed or levied for reasons unrelated to the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s ownership or disposition of
Securities of this series, nor shall Additional Amounts be payable for or on account of: 
 (1) any Taxes which would not have been so
imposed, withheld or deducted but for: 
 (i) the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder or beneficial owner (or
between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a Person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a
partnership, a corporation or other entity) and the United States, including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or Person having such a power)
being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of the United States, being or having been engaged in a trade or business in the United States, being or having been present in the United States, or having or having had a
permanent establishment in the United States; 
 (ii) the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable
certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement, if compliance is required under the tax laws and regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States to establish
entitlement to a partial or complete exemption from such Taxes (including, but not limited to, the requirement to provide Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (and related documentation) or any subsequent
versions thereof or successor thereto); or 
 (iii) the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal
holding company or a foreign personal holding company with respect to the United States, as a controlled foreign corporation with respect to the United States, as a passive foreign investment company with respect to the United States, as a foreign
tax exempt organization with respect to the United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 

(2) any Taxes which would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner to meet the
requirements (including the certification requirements) of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); 

(3) any Taxes which would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or beneficial owner of such
Security for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Security is duly provided for and 

  
 6 

 
notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Security on any
date during such 30-day period; 
 (4) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property, wealth or similar Taxes;

 (5) any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from a payment on such Security; 

(6) any Taxes which are imposed, withheld or deducted with respect to, or payable by, a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the
Security, or a portion of the Security, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such
partnership, limited liability company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the
payment; 
 (7) any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted by any Paying Agent from any payment on any Security of this series, if such
payment can be made without such withholding or deduction by at least one other Paying Agent; 
 (8) any Taxes imposed, withheld or deducted
under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the Code or any fiscal or
regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such sections of the Code; 

(9) any Taxes that would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for a change in any law, treaty, regulation, or administrative or
judicial interpretation that becomes effective after the applicable payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; or 

(10) any combination of items (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8), and (9). 

Any Additional Amounts paid on the Securities of this series will be paid in euro. For purposes of this paragraph and the immediately
preceding paragraph, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement, or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to a Security of this series alone will not constitute a connection (A) between the Holder or beneficial owner and the United
States or (B) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a Person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability
company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and the United States. Except as specifically provided under this paragraph and the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company will not be required to make any payment

  
 7 

 
with respect to any tax, duty, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority. If the Company is required to pay Additional
Amounts with respect to the Securities of this series, the Company will, in accordance with the Indenture, notify the Trustee and Paying Agent pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate that specifies the Additional Amounts payable and when the
Additional Amounts are payable. If the Trustee and the Paying Agent do not receive such an Officers’ Certificate from the Company, the Trustee and Paying Agent may rely on the absence of such an Officers’ Certificate in assuming that no
such Additional Amounts are payable. 
 For purposes of this Security, (i) “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is
neither a U.S. Holder (as defined below) nor a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (ii) “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (A) an individual who is a
citizen or resident of the United States; (B) a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state within the United States, or
the District of Columbia; (C) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or (D) a trust (1) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s
administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income
tax purposes. 
 The Company may redeem the Securities of this series at its option, in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the
principal amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed, together with any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of this series to be redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, at any time, if: (1) the Company has or will
become obliged to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws, regulations, treaties, or rulings of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States or any
taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in, or amendment to, the application, official interpretation, administration or enforcement of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings (including a holding by a court of
competent jurisdiction in the United States), which change or amendment is enacted, adopted, announced or becomes effective on or after February 12, 2016; or (2) on or after February 12, 2016, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any
action has been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (1) above,
whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a
material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel described
in clause (B) of the second succeeding sentence below to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent). Notice of any such redemption will be mailed, or delivered electronically if held by or on behalf of any depositary in accordance
with such depositary’s customary procedures, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each registered Holder of the Securities of this series to be redeemed; provided, however, that the notice of
redemption shall not be given earlier than 90 days before the earliest date on 

  
 8 

 
which the Company would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Securities of this series was then due. Prior to the mailing or delivery of any notice of
redemption pursuant to this paragraph, the Company will deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent: (A) a certificate signed by one of the Company’s officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a
statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the Company’s right to so redeem have occurred, and (B) a written opinion of independent tax counsel of nationally recognized standing to the effect that the Company has or will become
obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of a change or amendment described in clause (1) above or that there is a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts as a result of an action, change,
amendment, clarification, application or interpretation described in clause (2) above, as the case may be. Such notice of redemption, once delivered by the Company will be irrevocable. 

This Security is not repayable at the option of the Holder hereof and is not subject to the operation of any sinking fund. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared
due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The provisions of Section 1402 and Section 1403 of the Indenture relating to
defeasance and covenant defeasance, respectively, shall apply to this Security. Pursuant to Section 1404(5) and Section 1404(6) of the Indenture, any such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be conditioned on receipt of an Opinion of
Counsel relating to the federal income tax consequences of such defeasance or covenant defeasance. 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as
therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee
with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount
of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture, and contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages
in principal amount, in certain instances of the Outstanding Securities of individual series and in other instances of all Securities at the time Outstanding, to waive on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such individual series or of the
Holders of all Securities at the time Outstanding, as the case may be, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder
and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security 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 Security. 

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding, judicial or
otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default

  
 9 

 
with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount, in certain instances of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding and in other
instances of all Outstanding Securities, shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities
to be incurred in compliance with such request, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding or of all Outstanding Securities, as the
case may be, a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by
the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof (and premium, if any) or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay or make provision as provided in Article Fourteen of the Indenture for the payment of the amount of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security herein provided, and 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 and herein set forth, the
transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this
Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of €100,000 and any integral multiple of
€1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different authorized
denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but
the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due
presentment of this Security 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 Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this
Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 All terms used in this Security
that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

 UNITED TECHNOLOGIES
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (herein called the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of New York
Depository (Nominees) Limited, the registered Holder hereof, as nominee of The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch) as common depositary for Euroclear Bank, S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, société
anonyme (“Clearstream”), the principal sum of SEVEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION EUROS (€750,000,000), or such other principal sum as shall be specified in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Security attached hereto,
on February 22, 2018 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon from February 22, 2016 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly in arrears on February 22,
May 22, August 22 and November 22 of each year, and on the Maturity Date, commencing on May 22, 2016 (each an “Interest Payment Date”), at the rate, reset quarterly, equal to EURIBOR plus 0.800% (as determined by The Bank of New
York Mellon (London Branch) (in such capacity, the “Calculation Agent”), in accordance with the next succeeding paragraphs) to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered on the
Regular Record Date; provided, however, that interest payable on the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date will be payable to the Person to whom the 

 
principal of this Security is payable. If an Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date or any earlier Redemption Date) is not a Business Day, then such Interest Payment Date shall
be the next succeeding Business Day, unless the next succeeding Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, in which case such Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the Maturity Date or any earlier
Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and interest, if any, otherwise payable on such date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue from and
after the Maturity Date or earlier Redemption Date, as applicable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in
whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of
Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which such Securities may be listed, all as
more fully provided in said Indenture. This Security is a Security for purposes of the Indenture. 
 For purposes of this Security: 

“Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or
obligated by law or executive order to be closed in New York City or London and which is a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement Express Transfer system (the “TARGET2 system”), or any successor
thereto, operates. 
 “Regular Record Date” means the close of business on the date that is fifteen calendar days prior to the date on
which interest is scheduled to be paid, regardless of whether such date is a Business Day; provided that if this Security is held by a securities depositary in book-entry form, the Regular Record Date for this Security will be the close of
business on the Business Day (for this purpose a day on which Clearstream and Euroclear are open for business) immediately preceding the date on which interest is scheduled to be paid. 

This Security will bear interest for each Interest Period at a rate determined by the Calculation Agent. The interest rate on this Security for each day of an
Interest Period will be a rate equal to EURIBOR as determined on the Interest Determination Date plus 0.800% per year, provided, however, that in no event shall the interest rate be less than zero. 

The interest rate for each Interest Period will be reset on February 22, May 22, August 22 and November 22 of each year (each such date, an “Interest
Reset Date”), and will be set for the initial Interest Period on February 22, 2016. If any Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be the next succeeding Business Day, unless
the next succeeding Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, in which case such Interest Reset Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. 

The initial Interest Period for this Security will be the period from and including February 22, 2016 to but excluding the first Interest Reset Date.
Thereafter, an “Interest Period” shall mean the period from and including an Interest Reset Date to but excluding the next succeeding Interest 

  
 2 

 
Reset Date and, in the case of the last such period, from and including the Interest Reset Date immediately preceding the Maturity Date or any earlier Redemption Date, as the case may be, to but
excluding such Maturity Date or earlier Redemption Date. 
 The “Interest Determination Date” for the initial Interest Period is February
18, 2016 and for any other Interest Period will be the second TARGET2 system day preceding the relevant Interest Reset Date. 
 A “TARGET2 system
day” is any day on which the TARGET2 system, or any successor thereto, operates. 
 Promptly upon determination, the Calculation Agent will inform
the Company of the interest rate for the next Interest Period. Absent manifest error, the determination of the interest rate by the Calculation Agent shall be binding and conclusive on the holders of this Security, the Trustee and the
Company. So long as EURIBOR is required to be determined with respect to this Security, there will at all times be a Calculation Agent. In the event that any then acting Calculation Agent shall be unable or unwilling to act, or that such
Calculation Agent shall fail duly to establish EURIBOR for any Interest Period, or that the Company proposes to remove such Calculation Agent, the Company shall appoint another Person which is a bank, trust company, investment banking firm or other
financial institution to act as the Calculation Agent. 
 On any Interest Determination Date, EURIBOR will be equal to the offered rate for deposits in euro
having an index maturity of three months as such rate appears on the Reuters screen EURIBOR01 page at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on such interest determination date. “Reuters screen EURIBOR01 page” means the display
designated on page “EURIBOR01” on Reuters (or such other page as may replace the EURIBOR01 page on that service or any successor service for the purpose of displaying euro-zone interbank offered rates for euro-denominated deposits
of major banks). 
 If no offered rate appears on the Reuters screen EURIBOR01 page on an interest determination date at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels
time, then the Company will select four major banks in the euro-zone interbank market and shall request each of their principal euro-zone offices to provide to the Calculation Agent a quotation of the rate at which three-month deposits in euros in
amounts of at least €1,000,000 are offered by it to prime banks in the euro-zone interbank market, on that date and at that time, that is representative of single transactions at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, EURIBOR will
be the arithmetic average of the quotations provided. Otherwise, the Company will select three major banks in the euro-zone and shall request each of them to provide to the Calculation Agent a quotation of the rate offered by them at approximately
11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the interest determination date for loans in euros to leading European banks having an index maturity of three months for the applicable Interest Period in an amount of at least €1,000,000 that is representative of
single transactions at that time. If three quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic average of the quotations provided. Otherwise, the rate of EURIBOR for the next Interest Period will be set equal to the rate of EURIBOR for the then
current Interest Period. 
 The amount of interest for each day that this Security is outstanding (the “Daily Interest Amount”) will be
calculated by dividing the interest rate in effect on this Security for such day 

  
 3 

 
by 360 and multiplying the result by the principal amount of this Security (known as the “Actual/360” day count). The amount of interest to be paid on this Security for any Interest
Period will be calculated by adding the Daily Interest Amounts for each day in such Interest Period. 
 The interest rate on this Security will be limited
to the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified by United States law of general application. 
 All percentages resulting from
any calculation of any interest rate for this Security will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) would be
rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655)), and all euro amounts will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward. 
 Upon prior written
request from any Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate in effect on this Security for the current Interest Period and, if it has been determined, the interest rate to be in effect for the next Interest Period. 

Payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose
in the City of London, England, which shall be initially the corporate trust office of The Bank of New York Mellon (London Branch), located at One Canada Square, London, England E14 5AL; provided, however, that at the option of the
Company payment of principal or interest may be made by wire transfer to an account designated by the Person entitled thereto or by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, in
either case in same-day funds. 
 All payments on this Security will be payable in euro. If the euro is unavailable to the Company due to the imposition of
exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Company’s control (including the dissolution of the euro) or if the euro is no longer being used by the then member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted the euro as their
currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all payments in respect of this Security will be made in U.S. dollars until the euro is again available to the Company or so
used. The amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the
U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the basis of the then most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate available on or prior to the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date as determined by the Company in
the Company’s sole discretion. Any payment in respect of this Security so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series or under the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying
Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing. 
 “euro” and
“€” mean the lawful currency of the member states of the European Monetary Union that have adopted or that adopt the single currency in accordance with the treaty establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on
European Union. 

  
 4 

 Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which
further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. 

This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York.

 [REVERSE OF SECURITY] 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one
or more series under an Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of May 1, 2001, as it may be supplemented from time to time (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.
(formerly The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), as Trustee (successor to The Bank of New York) (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of which this
Security is a part), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities or the Securities of this
series that may be issued thereunder. Additional Securities of this series may be issued from time to time hereafter; provided that any such additional Securities that are not fungible with this Security for U.S. federal income tax purposes
will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN and other identifying number than this Security. 
 Notwithstanding Section 1104 of the Indenture, the notice of any
redemption referred to herein need not set forth the Redemption Price therefor but only the manner of calculation thereof. Promptly after the calculation of such Redemption Price, the Company shall give the Trustee notice thereof and the
Trustee shall not be responsible for such calculation. 
 All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Securities of this
series by the Company or a Paying Agent on the Company’s behalf will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future taxes, duties, assessments or other similar governmental charges
imposed or levied by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States (collectively, “Taxes”), unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. In the event such withholding or
deduction for Taxes is required by law, subject to the limitations described below, the Company will pay to any Non-U.S. Holder (as defined below) or any foreign partnership such Additional Amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the net amount
received by such Person, after withholding or deduction for such Taxes, will be equal to the amount such Person would have received in the absence of such withholding or deduction. However, no Additional Amounts shall be payable with respect to any
Taxes if such Taxes are imposed or levied for reasons unrelated to the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s ownership or disposition of Securities of this series, nor shall Additional Amounts be payable for or on account of: 

(1) any Taxes which would not have been so imposed, withheld or deducted but for: 

(i) the existence of any present or former connection between the Holder or beneficial owner (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary,
member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a Person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner, if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity)
and the United States, including, without limitation, such Holder or beneficial owner (or such fiduciary, 

  
 6 

 
settlor, beneficiary, member, shareholder or other equity owner or Person having such a power) being or having been a citizen or resident or treated as a resident of the United States, being or
having been engaged in a trade or business in the United States, being or having been present in the United States, or having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States; 

(ii) the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner to comply with any applicable certification, information, documentation or other reporting
requirement, if compliance is required under the tax laws and regulations of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States to establish entitlement to a partial or complete exemption from such Taxes
(including, but not limited to, the requirement to provide Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, Form W-8BEN-E, Form W-8ECI, Form W-8IMY (and related documentation) or any subsequent versions thereof or successor thereto); or 

(iii) the Holder’s or beneficial owner’s present or former status as a personal holding company or a foreign personal holding
company with respect to the United States, as a controlled foreign corporation with respect to the United States, as a passive foreign investment company with respect to the United States, as a foreign tax exempt organization with respect to the
United States or as a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 
 (2) any Taxes which would not have
been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the failure of the Holder or beneficial owner to meet the requirements (including the certification requirements) of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”); 
 (3) any Taxes which would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for the presentation by the Holder or
beneficial owner of such Security for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment of the Security is duly provided for and notice is given to Holders, whichever occurs
later, except to the extent that the Holder or beneficial owner would have been entitled to such Additional Amounts on presenting such Security on any date during such 30-day period; 

(4) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property, wealth or similar Taxes; 

(5) any Taxes which are payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from a payment on such Security; 

(6) any Taxes which are imposed, withheld or deducted with respect to, or payable by, a Holder that is not the beneficial owner of the
Security, or a portion of the Security, or that is a fiduciary, partnership, limited liability company or other similar entity, but only to the extent that a beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or member of such
partnership, limited liability 

  
 7 

 
company or similar entity would not have been entitled to the payment of an Additional Amount had such beneficial owner, settlor, beneficiary or member received directly its beneficial or
distributive share of the payment; 
 (7) any Taxes required to be withheld or deducted by any Paying Agent from any payment on any Security
of this series, if such payment can be made without such withholding or deduction by at least one other Paying Agent; 
 (8) any Taxes
imposed, withheld or deducted under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreement entered into pursuant to Section 1471(b) of the
Code or any fiscal or regulatory legislation, rules or practices adopted pursuant to any intergovernmental agreement entered into in connection with the implementation of such sections of the Code; 

(9) any Taxes that would not have been imposed, withheld or deducted but for a change in any law, treaty, regulation, or administrative or
judicial interpretation that becomes effective after the applicable payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; or 

(10) any combination of items (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6), (7), (8), and (9). 

Any Additional Amounts paid on the Securities of this series will be paid in euro. For purposes of this paragraph and the immediately
preceding paragraph, the acquisition, ownership, enforcement, or holding of or the receipt of any payment with respect to a Security of this series alone will not constitute a connection (A) between the Holder or beneficial owner and the United
States or (B) between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder or other equity owner of, or a Person having a power over, such Holder or beneficial owner if such Holder or beneficial owner is an estate, a trust, a limited liability
company, a partnership, a corporation or other entity and the United States. Except as specifically provided under this paragraph and the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company will not be required to make any payment with respect to any tax,
duty, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority. If the Company is required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to the Securities of this series, the Company will, in
accordance with the Indenture, notify the Trustee and Paying Agent pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate that specifies the Additional Amounts payable and when the Additional Amounts are payable. If the Trustee and the Paying Agent do not
receive such an Officers’ Certificate from the Company, the Trustee and Paying Agent may rely on the absence of such an Officers’ Certificate in assuming that no such Additional Amounts are payable. 

For purposes of this Security, (i) “Non-U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is neither a U.S. Holder (as defined below)
nor a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and (ii) “U.S. Holder” means a beneficial owner of a Security that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (A) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United
States; (B) a corporation (or any other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or 

  
 8 

 
organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state within the United States, or the District of Columbia; (C) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax
regardless of its source; or (D) a trust (1) if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the trust’s administration and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the
trust or (2) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

The Company may redeem the Securities of this series at its option, in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of
the Securities of this series to be redeemed, together with any accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of this series to be redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, at any time, if: (1) the Company has or will become obliged to pay
Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws, regulations, treaties, or rulings of the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States or any taxing authority
thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in, or amendment to, the application, official interpretation, administration or enforcement of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings (including a holding by a court of competent
jurisdiction in the United States), which change or amendment is enacted, adopted, announced or becomes effective on or after February 12, 2016; or (2) on or after February 12, 2016, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any action has
been brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in, the United States or any political subdivision of or in the United States or any taxing authority thereof or therein, including any of those actions specified in clause (1) above, whether or not
such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company, or there is any change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation of such laws, regulations, treaties or rulings, which in any such case, will result in a material
probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts with respect to such Securities (it being understood that such material probability will be deemed to result if the written opinion of independent tax counsel described in
clause (B) of the second succeeding sentence below to such effect is delivered to the Trustee and the Paying Agent). Notice of any such redemption will be mailed, or delivered electronically if held by or on behalf of any depositary in accordance
with such depositary’s customary procedures, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each registered Holder of the Securities of this series to be redeemed; provided, however, that the notice of
redemption shall not be given earlier than 90 days before the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of the Securities of this series was then due. Prior to the mailing or
delivery of any notice of redemption pursuant to this paragraph, the Company will deliver to the Trustee and the Paying Agent: (A) a certificate signed by one of the Company’s officers stating that the Company is entitled to effect such
redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the Company’s right to so redeem have occurred, and (B) a written opinion of independent tax counsel of nationally recognized standing to the effect that
the Company has or will become obligated to pay such Additional Amounts as a result of a change or amendment described in clause (1) above or that there is a material probability that the Company will be required to pay Additional Amounts as a
result of an action, change, amendment, clarification, application or interpretation described in clause (2) above, as the case may be. Such notice of redemption, once delivered by the Company will be irrevocable.

sinking fund. 
 If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this
series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 The provisions of Section 1402 and Section 1403 of
the Indenture relating to defeasance and covenant defeasance, respectively, shall apply to this Security. Pursuant to Section 1404(5) and Section 1404(6) of the Indenture, any such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall be conditioned on
receipt of an Opinion of Counsel relating to the federal income tax consequences of such defeasance or covenant defeasance. 
 The Indenture permits, with
certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the
Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of all Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified
percentages in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture, and contains provisions permitting the
Holders of specified percentages in principal amount, in certain instances of the Outstanding Securities of individual series and in other instances of all Securities at the time Outstanding, to waive on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of
such individual series or of the Holders of all Securities at the time Outstanding, as the case may be, certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security 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 Security. 
 As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute
any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event
of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount, in certain instances of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding and in other instances of all Outstanding Securities, shall
have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request,
and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding or of all Outstanding Securities, as the case may be, a direction inconsistent with such
request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement
of any payment of principal hereof (and premium, if any) or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 

  
 10 

 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair
the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay or make provision as provided in Article Fourteen of the Indenture for the payment of the amount of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security herein
provided, and 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 and herein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but
the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
