 (c) Section 6.2 is hereby amended to add the following clause (i):

written instruction. The Issuer assumes all risks arising out of its use of electronic methods to submit instructions and directions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting upon unauthorized instructions and the

(f) Article 11 is hereby amended to add the following Sections: 
 “SECTION 11.13 No Consequential Damages. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including without
limitation any loss of profit) irrespective of whether it has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.” 
 “SECTION 11.14 Force Majeure. In no event shall the Trustee be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by

catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software and hardware) services; it being understood that the affected party shall use reasonable efforts that are consistent with
accepted practices in the banking industry and to resume performance as soon as practicable under the circumstances.” 
 (g)
Section 11.5 is hereby amended to add the following sentence to the end of such Section;

date and public offering price) as the Notes. Any additional Notes having such similar terms, together with the Notes, will constitute a single series of Securities (as defined in the Indenture) under the Indenture. No additional Notes having such
similar terms may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred with respect to the Notes or if such additional Notes will not be fungible with the previously issued Notes for federal income tax purposes. 

Pursuant to Section 2.4 of the Indenture, the Company hereby authorizes and directs that you authenticate and deliver

at One Canada Square, London E14 5AL, or such other location or locations as may be provided for pursuant to the Indenture referred to herein, in such coin, currency or currency unit specified
above as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, and to pay interest annually on the Interest Payment Date in each year and on the Maturity Date or upon earlier redemption or repayment; commencing
with the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above on said principal sum at the Interest Rate specified above from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no
interest has been paid or duly provided for, from the Original Issue Date, until the principal hereof becomes due and payable; provided, however, that any payment of principal or interest to be made on an Interest Payment Date, on the
Maturity Date or on a date fixed for redemption which is not a Business Day (as hereinafter defined) shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, on the Maturity Date or on
the date fixed for redemption, as the case may be, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment. For purposes of this Note, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is
neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required by law or regulation to close in New York, New York or London, and on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross settlement Express Transfer system
(the TARGET2 System) or any successor thereto, is open. 
 The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on
any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Record Date (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding such Interest Payment
Date and interest payable on the Maturity Date or upon earlier redemption will be payable to the person to whom principal is payable, except that, if this Note is issued between a Record Date and the initial Interest Payment Date relating to such
Record Date, interest for the period beginning on the Original Issue Date and ending on such initial Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the person to whom this Note shall have been originally issued. Payment of principal and interest on this
Note will be made, if at maturity or upon earlier redemption, then on the Maturity Date or the date fixed for redemption, as applicable, upon surrender of this Note at the office of the Paying Agent. All such payments shall be made in immediately
available funds, provided that this Note is presented to the Paying Agent in time for the Trustee to make such payments in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest on this Note (other than interest paid on the
Maturity Date or upon earlier redemption) will be made by wire transfer to the person entitled thereto appearing on the register for the Notes on the applicable Record Date; provided that such holder shall have designated such account by written
notice to the Trustee no later than the Record Date preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments of principal and interest on Global Securities shall be made in accordance with the Depositary’s
procedures. Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for shall be payable as provided in the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof. 
 Interest 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 Notes (or February 12, 2015, if no interest has been paid on the Notes), 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 Markets Association.

 Principal and interest payments of the Notes are payable in Euro. If, on or after February
3, 2015, the Euro is unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Issuer 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 Notes will be made in U.S. dollars until the Euro is again
available to us or so used. In such circumstances, the amount payable on any date in Euros will be converted into U.S. dollars in accordance with the Indenture. 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. 
 REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET FORTH ON THE
REVERSE HEREOF, WHICH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGH FULLY SET FORTH AT THIS PLACE. 
 This Note shall
not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been manually signed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof.

 REVERSE OF NOTE 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of unsecured debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness of the Issuer (hereinafter
called the “Securities”) of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an indenture dated as of January 10, 1995 (the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by the
Issuer to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., successor to U.S. Bank National Association (formerly Wachovia Bank, National Association and initially First Fidelity Bank, National Association), as Trustee (the
“Trustee”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Issuer and the
holders (the words “holders” or “holder” meaning the registered holders or registered holder of the Securities). The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series (and which securities
issued within each series) may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption or repayment provisions (if any), may be subject to
different sinking fund or analogous provisions (if any), may be subject to different Events of Default (as defined in the Indenture) and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided. This Note is one of a series designated as “1.000% Notes
due 2025” (the “Notes”) of the Issuer, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to €300,000,000, subject to the right of the Issuer to reopen the series and issue additional principal amounts; provided that no
additional Notes having such similar terms may be issued if an Event of Default has occurred with respect to the Notes or if such additional Notes will not be fungible with the previously issued Notes for federal income tax purposes. 

In case an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal hereof may be declared, and
upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture. 
 At any time, or from time to time, prior to November 12, 2024, the Notes may be redeemed, as a whole or in part, at the Issuer’s option upon mailing a notice of such redemption not less than 30
days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the holders of the Notes at their last registered addresses, all as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount
of the Notes to be redeemed; or (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, as defined below, discounted to the redemption date on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)) at the Comparable Government Bond Rate, as
defined below, plus fifteen (15) basis points, plus, in each case, any interest accrued but not paid to the date of redemption. The redemption price shall be calculated by the Issuer. 

At any time on or after November 12, 2024, the Notes may be redeemed, at the Issuer’s option, upon mailing of a notice of such
redemption not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption to the holders of the Notes at their last registered addresses, all as provided in the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the applicable Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed, to but excluding the redemption date. 

  
 Page 13 of 21

  

 “Comparable Government Bond” means, in relation to any Comparable
Government Bond Rate calculation, at the discretion of an independent investment bank selected by the Issuer, a German Bundesanleihe security whose maturity is closest to the maturity of the Notes, or if such independent investment bank in
its discretion considers that such similar bond is not in issue, such other German Bundesanleihe security as such independent investment bank may, with the advice of three brokers of, and/or market makers in, German Bundesanleihe
securities selected by such independent investment bank, determine to be appropriate for determining the Comparable Government Bond Rate. 
 “Comparable Government Bond Rate” means the price, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, 0.0005 being rounded upwards), at which the gross redemption yield on the
Notes, if they were to be purchased at such price on the third business day prior to the date fixed for redemption, 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 Issuer. 

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of the
principal thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related redemption date but for such redemption; provided, however, that, if such redemption date is not an interest payment date with respect to such Note, the amount
of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon will be deemed to be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to such redemption date. 
 If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws of the United States or the official interpretation thereof that is announced or becomes effective on or after February 3, 2015, the Issuer
becomes or, based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Issuer, will become obligated to pay additional amounts as described below with respect to the Notes, then the Issuer may, at any time and at its option, redeem, in
whole, but not in part, the Notes on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to, but not including, the date
fixed for redemption. 
 The Issuer will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay as additional interest
on the Notes such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment by the Issuer or a paying agent of the principal of and interest on the Notes to a holder that is not a United States person (as defined below), after withholding or
deduction for any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or a taxing authority in the United States, will not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable;
provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts shall not apply: 
  

	 	(1)	to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the holder, a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of the
holder, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being treated as: 

  
 Page 14 of 21

  

	 	(a)	being or having been engaged in a trade or business in the United States, or having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States;

  

	 	(b)	having a current or former connection with the United States (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any
payment in respect of the Notes or the enforcement of any rights under the Indenture), including being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States; 

 

	 	(c)	being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a
foreign tax exempt organization, or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid United States federal income tax; 

  

	 	(d)	being or having been a “10-percent shareholder” of the Issuer, as defined in section 871(h)(3) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the “Code”) or any successor provision; or 

  

	 	(e)	being a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of its trade or business, within the
meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision; 

  

	 	(2)	to any holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership or limited liability company, but only
to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor,
beneficial owner or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment; 

  

	 	(3)	to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the holder or any other person to comply with certification,
identification or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the
United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; 

 

	 	(4)	to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Issuer or a paying agent from the payment;

  

	 	(5)	to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation
that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; 

  
 Page 15 of 21

  

	 	(6)	to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

  

	 	(7)	to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any paying agent from any payment of principal of or interest on any Note, if such
payment can be made without such withholding by at least one other paying agent in a member state of the European Union; 

  

	 	(8)	to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the holder of any Note, where presentation is required,
for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; 

 

	 	(9)	to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that is imposed on a payment pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code
(or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other official interpretations thereof, any agreement
(including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FACTA”) or an
intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA; or 

  

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

 Except as specifically provided above, the Issuer will not be required to pay additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge.

 Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will be required to
make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to €1,000 or an integral multiple thereof) of such holder’s Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Issuer will be required to
mail (or otherwise transmit in accordance with the Depositary) a notice to each holder stating: 
  

	 	(1)	that the Change of Control Offer is being made pursuant to the covenant entitled “Change of control and rating decline”; 

 

	 	(2)	the purchase price and the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 45 days after the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of
Control Payment Date”); 

  

	 	(3)	that any Notes not tendered will continue to accrue interest in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and this Note; 

 

	 	(4)	that, unless the Issuer defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Payment, all Notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer will cease to
accrue interest after the Change of Control Payment Date;

Change of Control Payment Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the holder, the principal amount of Notes delivered for purchase, and a statement that such holder is unconditionally withdrawing its
election to have such Notes purchased; 

  

	 	(6)	that holders whose Notes are being purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered, which
unpurchased portion must be equal to €100,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of €1,000 in excess thereof; and 

  

	 	(7)	any other information material to such holder’s decision to tender Notes. 

 The Issuer will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer following a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes a Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise
in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Issuer and purchases all Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control Triggering Event, conditional upon such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of making the Change of
Control Offer. 
 “Board of Directors” means either the Board of Directors of the Issuer or any committee of
such Board duly authorized to act hereunder. 
 “Capital Stock” means any and all shares, interests,

independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee) to pay interest due or to become due on the Notes to, and to pay the principal and any premium due on the Notes upon the Maturity Date or upon

hereof and premium, if any, and subject to the provisions on the face hereof, interest hereon, and for all other purposes, and neither the Issuer nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the
