 [REVERSE OF NOTE] 

1. INDENTURE. (a) This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of senior debt securities of the Company (hereinafter called the
“Notes”), all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of June 5, 2012 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee

thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Company has appointed the Trustee as the paying agent (the “Paying
Agent,” which term includes any additional or successor Paying Agent appointed by the Company) with respect to the Notes. To the extent not inconsistent herewith, the terms of the Indenture are hereby incorporated by reference herein.
To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the Indenture, the Indenture shall govern and be controlling. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $800,000,000;
provided that the Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the applicable series of Notes, create and issue additional Notes of such series (the “Additional Notes”) having the same
terms and ranking equally and ratably with the Notes of such series in all respects and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes of the applicable series, or in all respects except for any differences in the issue price and the payment of interest
accruing prior to the issue date of the Additional Notes or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of such Additional Notes. Any Additional Notes will be consolidated and form a single series with the applicable series of
Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption and otherwise as such Notes. Any Additional Notes may be issued pursuant to authorization provided by a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company, a supplement to the Indenture,
or under an Officers’ Certificate pursuant to the Indenture. No Additional Notes may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes of such series. If such Additional Notes are not fungible for
purposes of U.S. federal income tax purposes, such Notes shall have a different CUSIP number. 
 (b) All capitalized terms used
in this Note which are defined in the Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 2. AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. 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 Notes of any series and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all of the Notes of each applicable series then Outstanding affected by such amendment or modification (treated as a
single class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of all of the Notes of each applicable series then Outstanding affected thereby (treated as a single class) to waive compliance
by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. For the avoidance of 

 
doubt, with respect to any series of Notes, the consent or waiver, as the case may be, of Holders of Notes of such series required or permitted under the Indenture, as the case may be, if the
Company so determines, may also be obtained from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of that series

other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect
to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to

 The Company will give notice to the Holders of Notes and the Trustee of any Notes to be redeemed of any redemption the Company proposes to make at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the
Redemption Date. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee must select the particular Notes to be redeemed by the method specified in the Indenture.

Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portion of the Notes called for redemption.

COVENANTS. The Indenture restricts, among other things, the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to incur certain secured indebtedness and the ability of the Company to merge or consolidate with, or transfer all or substantially all of its

the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 The Company will give notice to the Holders of Notes and the Trustee of any Notes to be redeemed of any redemption the Company proposes to make at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the
Redemption Date. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee must select the particular Notes to be redeemed by the method specified in the Indenture.

Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portion of the Notes called for redemption.

the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of repurchase. 
 7. CERTAIN
COVENANTS. The Indenture restricts, among other things, the ability of the Company and its Subsidiaries to incur certain secured indebtedness and the ability of the Company to merge or consolidate with, or transfer all or substantially all of its
assets to, other companies. These covenants are subject to the defeasance procedures outlined in the Indenture. 
 8. EFFECT OF
EVENT OF DEFAULT. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Indenture, the principal hereof may be declared immediately due and payable in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the
Indenture.
