specified above until the principal hereof is 

  

 A-1 

 
paid or duly made available for payment. Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date specified
above in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date specified above to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or, in respect of any part of the Principal
Amount due on a Maturity Date (as defined below), such Maturity Date, as the case may be. Except as provided herein, Québec will pay interest on the Interest Payment Date(s) specified above and in respect of any part of the Principal Amount
due on a Maturity Date, on such Maturity Date commencing on the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Issue Date, unless the Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as defined below) and the Interest Payment Date to which such Record Date
pertains, in which case commencing on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Record Date to the Holder (as defined below) on such next succeeding Record Date. 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 (the “Holder”) in the register of the names and addresses of Holders of Notes (the “Note Register”)
maintained by Québec at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent (as defined on the reverse hereof) at the close of business on the date fifteen calendar days prior to an Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day (as defined
on the reverse hereof)) (a “Record Date”); provided, however, that interest payable on a Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the part of the Principal Amount due on such Maturity Date shall be payable. Any such
interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Record Date and may either be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of
business on a special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Fiscal Agent, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes of this series not less than ten 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 this Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange. 
 Upon presentation of this Note on a Maturity Date at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent maintained for that purpose in The City of New York,
or at such other office or agency of Québec maintained by it in The City of New York for the purpose of making such payments, payment of the principal of this Note and premium, if any, and interest due on such Maturity Date will be made to
the Holder of this Note on such Maturity Date in immediately available funds or, if such payment is to be made in a Foreign Currency, by wire transfer to a bank account maintained by the Holder hereof, as designated by the Holder of this Note as
provided on the reverse hereof. Payments of interest, other than on a Maturity Date, on this Note are to be made by wire transfer to the Holder’s 

  

 A-2 

 
bank account, as designated by the Holder of this Note as provided on the reverse hereof. A Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount
of Notes (whether having identical or different terms and provisions) shall be entitled to receive payments of interest, other than on a Maturity Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have
been received by the Fiscal Agent not less than ten days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. As more fully provided on the reverse hereof, payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be made in such
coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public or private debts, unless the Specified Currency indicated above is a Foreign Currency (a “Foreign Currency Note”), in which
case payment shall be made in such Foreign Currency. 
 REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE 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 Fiscal Agent by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Fiscal Agency Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 QUÉBEC 
 MEDIUM-TERM NOTE 
 SERIES A 
 FIXED RATE 
 General 
 This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Medium-Term Notes, Series A (the “Notes”), Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue, as selected by the purchaser and agreed to by Québec. The Notes
are issuable in a single series under a fiscal agency agreement, dated as of May 30, 2002, as may be amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), among Québec and Citibank, N.A., as fiscal agent
(the “Fiscal Agent”, which term shall include, unless the context otherwise requires, its successors and assigns), in an aggregate initial offering price of up to U.S.$3,000,000,000 at any one time outstanding, or the equivalent thereof in
other currencies at the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the applicable settlement dates in the case of Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency. The foregoing limit, however, may be increased by Québec if in the future it determines
that it may wish to sell additional Notes. The Fiscal Agency Agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, but any such amendment or supplement will not affect the rights of the Holder hereunder.

 As used herein, “Maturity Date”, when used with respect to this Note, means the date on which the Principal Amount of this Note or any part
thereof becomes due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise. 
 Payments 

General 
 Interest payments for this Note will be computed and paid
on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which is equivalent to the rate of interest payable on this Note is the Interest Rate specified on the
face hereof multiplied by the number of days in the year and divided by 360. 
 In the case where an Interest Payment Date or a Maturity Date does not fall
on a Business Day, any payment of principal, premium or interest otherwise payable on such day need not be made on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the 

  

 A-5 

 
same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date or Maturity Date to such next succeeding Business Day. As used herein, “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 executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that (i) with respect to Foreign Currency Notes the payment of which is to be made in a Foreign Currency other than euros, such day is also a day on which
banking institutions are not authorized or required by law or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center of the country of the Foreign Currency; and (ii) with respect to Foreign Currency Notes the payment of which is to be made
in euros, such day is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) system, or any successor system, is open for business. 
 “Principal Financial Center”, as used for the purpose of the definition of “Business Day”, shall be the capital city of the country of the applicable Foreign Currency, except that with respect to
Canadian dollars, euros and Swiss francs, the Principal Financial Center shall be Montréal, Brussels and Zurich, respectively. 
 Original Issue
Discount Note 
 If this Note is designated on the face hereof as an Original Issue Discount Note, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Note, upon the redemption, repayment or acceleration of the Stated Maturity of this Note there shall be payable, in lieu of the Principal Amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, an amount equal to the Amortized Face Amount of
this Note. The “Amortized Face Amount” shall be the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price (as defined below) of this Note, plus (ii) that portion of the difference between the Issue Price and the Principal Amount of this Note that
has been amortized at the Stated Yield (as defined below) of this Note (computed in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles) at the date as of which the Amortized Face Amount is calculated, but in no event
shall the Amortized Face Amount exceed the Principal Amount of this Note. As used in the previous sentence “Issue Price” means the Principal Amount of this Note less the Total Amount of OID of this Note specified on the face hereof and the
“Stated Yield” of this Note means the Yield to Maturity specified on the face hereof (or if not so specified, the Yield to Maturity compounded semi-annually and computed in accordance with generally accepted United 

  

 A-6 

 
States bond yield computation principles) for the period from the Issue Date of this Note to the Stated Maturity hereof on the basis of its Issue Price and
Principal Amount. 
 Foreign Currency Payments 
 If this
Note is a Foreign Currency Note, the principal and premium, if any, and interest on this Note are payable by Québec in the Foreign Currency shown on the face hereof. Payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest will be made in the
Foreign Currency by wire transfer to the Holder’s bank account and the Holder will not have the option to elect payment in U.S. dollars. 
 If the
Foreign Currency is not available for the payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest with respect to this Note due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of Québec, Québec will be
entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in U.S. dollars (i) on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the date of the payment, or (ii) if the Market Exchange Rate is not
then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate, or (iii) as the case may be, as otherwise specified in “Other Provisions” on the face hereof. 
 In order for any Holder of this Note to receive payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest in the Foreign Currency by wire transfer, such Holder shall
designate an appropriate bank account by filing the appropriate information with the Fiscal Agent at its corporate trust office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least sixteen days prior to the applicable
Maturity Date, as the case may be. The Fiscal Agent will, subject to applicable laws and regulations and until it receives notice to the contrary, make such payment and all succeeding payments to such Holder by wire transfer to the designated
account. If a payment cannot be made by wire transfer because the required information has not been received by the Fiscal Agent on or before the requisite date, a notice will be mailed to the Holder of this Note at its registered address requesting
such information and until such information has been received, no additional interest will accrue. 
 Québec will pay all administrative costs imposed
by banks in connection with making payments by wire transfer, but any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon such payments will be borne by the Holder of this Note. 
  

 A-7 

 The “Market Exchange Rate” with respect to any Foreign Currency shall be the noon dollar buying rate in The
City of New York for cable transfers for such Foreign Currency as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. 
 Redemption at
the Option of Québec 
 If one or more Redemption Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on the face hereof, this Note is subject to
redemption upon not less than thirty days’ and not more than sixty days’ prior notice by mail, on any such date (or during any such range) as a whole, or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum
denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination), at the election of Québec, at the Redemption Price (as defined below) together
with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; but any interest payment due on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holder hereof (or one or more predecessor Notes) of record at the close of
business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest Payment Date. If applicable, the “Redemption Price” for any such redemption shall be equal to the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face hereof (as adjusted by the Annual
Redemption Percentage Reduction specified on the face hereof, if applicable) multiplied by the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be
redeemed; provided, however, that in no event shall the Redemption Price be less than 100% of the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to
be redeemed. 
 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, this Note (or the portion of the Principal Amount hereof so to be redeemed) shall, on
the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price herein specified, and from and after such date (unless Québec shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) shall cease to bear interest.

 In the case of any partial redemption at the election of Québec of Notes, the Notes of a particular tenor to be redeemed shall be selected by the
Fiscal Agent not more than sixty days prior to the Redemption Date by such method as the Fiscal Agent shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the Principal Amount of Notes. In the 

  

 A-8 

 
event of any redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the
Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof, provided that such unredeemed portion shall be an authorized denomination for Notes of this series. 
 Repayment at the Option of Holder 
 If one or more Optional Repayment Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on the face hereof, this
Note is subject to repayment on any such date (or during any such range) or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the first Business Day following such date, as a whole or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000 or such other
minimum denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination), at the election of the Holder hereof at the Repayment Price (as defined below)
together with accrued interest thereon to the Optional Repayment Date, but any interest payment due on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Optional Repayment Date will be payable to the Holder hereof of record at the close of
business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest Payment Date. Such election shall be effected by the Holder hereof delivering to Québec at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent in The City of New York not less than thirty nor
more than sixty days prior to the date on which this Note is to be repaid, or during such other notice period specified on the face hereof, a notice requesting such repayment in the form prescribed below and specifying the date upon which this Note
is to be repaid. Any notice given by a Holder pursuant to this paragraph shall consist of this Note with the form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” set forth of the end of this Note duly completed. Exercise of the repayment option by
the Holder hereof will be irrevocable. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the “Repayment Price” for any such repayment shall be 100% of the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Note is an Original Issue Discount
Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be repaid. 
 Status of the Notes 
 The Notes shall rank equally among themselves and with the other debt securities of Québec outstanding on the date of this Note or issued hereafter. 
  

 A-9 

 Form, Denomination and Registration 
 The Notes are fully registered, without coupons, in authorized denominations of U.S.$1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof, or, in the case of Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency, the equivalent in the Foreign
Currency (rounded to an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Foreign Currency) or such larger amount of such Foreign Currency as may be specified on the face hereof. The Fiscal Agent has been appointed registrar for the Notes, and Québec
will cause the Fiscal Agent to maintain at its corporate trust office in The City of New York a Note Register for the registration and transfer of Notes. 
 This Note may be transferred at the aforesaid office of the Fiscal Agent by surrendering this Note for cancellation, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form approved by Québec and duly executed by the Holder hereof in
person or by the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Fiscal Agent shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, in exchange herefor, a new Note or Notes in an equal aggregate Principal Amount and in
authorized denominations, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 The Notes are exchangeable at said office for other Notes of like tenor in
other authorized denominations and in an equal aggregate Principal Amount. All such exchanges of Notes will be free of charge, but Québec may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in connection
therewith. The date of registration of any Note delivered upon any exchange or transfer of Notes shall be such that no gain or loss of interest results from such exchange or transfer. The Fiscal Agent shall not be required to make any transfers,
registrations or exchanges of Notes for a period of fifteen days preceding any Interest Payment Date. 
 In the event of any redemption of Notes at the
election of Québec, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange Notes of like tenor during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days before any selection of Notes to be
redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any Note
being redeemed in part. Following the exercise of any repayment option by the Holder hereof, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange that portion of this Note with respect to which such option has been
exercised. 
  

 A-10 

 Events of Default 
 In the
event that (i) Québec shall default in the payment of principal of or premium or interest on this Note as and when the same shall be due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of 45 days, or (ii) default shall be
made in the due performance or observance by Québec of any covenant or agreement contained in the Notes, other than the payment of principal, premium or interest, or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, and such default shall continue for a period
of 60 days, or (iii) Québec shall default in the payment of any principal of or premium or interest on any indebtedness (direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money, other than the Notes, as and when the same shall be due and
payable, and such default shall continue for a period of 45 days, provided that the foregoing shall not be taken into account so long as the aggregate principal amount of all such indebtedness (direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money
with respect to which the foregoing has occurred does not exceed U.S.$50,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies), then at any time thereafter and during the continuance of such default the Holder of this Note (or its proxy) may deliver or
cause to be delivered to Québec (with a copy to the Fiscal Agent) a written notice that such Holder elects to declare the principal of the Note or Notes held by him (the serial number or numbers and the denomination or denominations of which
shall be set forth in such notice) to be due and payable and, in the cases falling within either (i) or (iii) above, on the 15th day after delivery of such notice, or, in the cases falling within (ii) above, on the 30th day after
delivery of such notice, the principal of the Note or Notes referred to in such notice plus any premium and accrued interest thereon shall become due and payable at the places for payment herein specified, unless prior to that time all such defaults
theretofore existing shall have been cured. 
 Modification 
 The
Fiscal Agency Agreement contains provisions with respect to modifying or amending said Agreement either without notice to, or the consent of, the holder of any Note or with the approval of the holders of Notes. 
 Future Holders 
 Any action by the Holder of this Note shall bind all future
Holders of this Note, and of any Note issued in exchange or substitution herefor or in place hereof, in respect of anything done or permitted by Québec or by the Fiscal Agent in pursuance of such action. 
  

 A-11 

 Notices 
 All notices to the
holders of Notes will be published in English in New York, New York in The Wall Street Journal and in Toronto, Ontario in The Globe & Mail and in French in Montréal, Québec in La Presse. If at any time
publication in any such newspaper is not practicable, notices will be valid if published in an English language newspaper, or, if in Québec, a French language newspaper, with general circulation in the respective market regions as
Québec, with the approval of the Fiscal Agent, shall determine. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such publication or, if published more than once or on different dates, on the first date on which publication
is made.

Note shall be outstanding, Québec will maintain an office or agency for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note as herein provided in The City of New York, and an office or agency in The City of New York
for the registration, transfer and exchange as aforesaid of the Notes. Québec may designate other agencies for the payment of said principal and premium, if any, and interest at such place or places (subject to applicable laws and
regulations) as Québec may decide. So long as there shall be a Fiscal Agent, Québec shall keep the Fiscal Agent advised of the names and locations of such agencies, if any are so designated. 
 No recourse under or upon any covenant contained in this Note or because of the creation of the indebtedness represented hereby shall be had against any official or
other representative, past, present or future, as such, of Québec whether by virtue of any statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being expressly agreed and understood that this Note is
solely the obligation of Québec and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to or be incurred by any such officials or other representatives, as such, because of the execution of this Note. 
 Prescription

in connection with the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the Notes.

 MEDIUM-TERM NOTE 
 SERIES A 
 FLOATING RATE 
 General 
 This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Medium-Term Notes, Series A (the “Notes”), Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue, as selected by the purchaser and agreed to by Québec. The Notes
are issuable in a single series under a fiscal agency agreement, dated as of May 30, 2002, as may be amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), among Québec and Citibank, N.A., as fiscal agent
(the “Fiscal Agent”, which term shall include, unless the context otherwise requires, its successors and assigns), in an aggregate initial offering price of up to U.S.$3,000,000,000 at any one time outstanding, or the equivalent thereof in
other currencies at the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the applicable settlement dates in the case of Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency. The foregoing limit, however, may be increased by Québec if in the future it determines
that it may wish to sell additional Notes. The Fiscal Agency Agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, but any such amendment or supplement will not affect the rights of the Holder hereunder.

 As used herein, “Maturity Date”, when used with respect to this Note, means the date on which the Principal Amount of this Note or any part
thereof becomes due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise. 
 Interest 

General 
 Commencing with the first Interest Reset Date specified on
the face hereof following the Issue Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified on the face hereof under “Interest Rate Reset Period”;
provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period from the Issue Date to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate. If any Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day
(as defined below), such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that in the case the 

  

 B-6 

 
Interest Rate Basis is LIBOR or EURIBOR, as specified on the face hereof, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset
Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. Subject to applicable provisions of law and except as specified herein, on each Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the
provisions of the applicable heading below. 
 Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis is CD Rate, the interest rate payable with
respect to this Note shall equal the CD Rate determined as specified herein, plus or minus the Spread, if any, specified on the face hereof or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof. The CD Rate shall equal the
rate as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date specified on the face hereof (a “CD Rate Interest Determination Date”) for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face
hereof as published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in H.15(519) under the heading “CDs (secondary market)”. If such rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date
(as defined below) pertaining to such CD Rate Interest Determination Date, then the CD Rate shall be the rate on such CD Rate Interest Determination Date set forth in H.15 Daily Update for that day in respect of certificates of deposit having the
Index Maturity specified above under the heading “CD(s) (secondary market)”. If such rate is not yet published in H.15(519), H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Calculation Date pertaining to such CD Rate Interest Determination Rate, then the CD Rate on such CD Rate Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered
rates, as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such CD Rate Interest Determination Date, of three leading non-bank dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, after
consultation with Québec (and which may include the agents appointed by Québec for the purpose of soliciting purchases of the Notes by others from Québec (the “Agents”) and affiliates of the Agents) for negotiable U.S.
dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money center banks with a remaining maturity closest to the specified Index Maturity and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in such market at such time, provided,
however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the CD Rate determined as of such CD Rate Interest Determination Date shall be the CD Rate in effect on such
CD Rate Interest Determination Date.

Determination Date of Treasury Bills having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, as published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government securities/Treasury bills/secondary market” or, if not yet published by 3:00 P.M.,
New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, the rate on that Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date of such Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying
such rate, under the caption “U.S. Government securities/Treasury bills/secondary market”. If that rate is not yet published in H.15(519), H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the
related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on that
Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date, of three leading primary U.S. government securities dealers (which may include the Agents or their affiliates) selected by the Calculation Agent after consultation with Québec, for the issue of
Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof; provided, however, that if the dealers so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Treasury Rate
determined as of that Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date shall be the Treasury Rate in effect on such Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date. 
 “Bond Equivalent Yield” shall be the yield calculated in accordance with the following formula: 
  

			
	Bond Equivalent Yield =	  	D × N × 100    
	  	360 – (D × M)

  

 B-18 

 where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank discount basis and
expressed as a decimal, “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the Interest Payment Period for which interest is being calculated. 
 Maximum/Minimum Interest Rate 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof. The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the
foregoing on or before each Calculation Date. The interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified by United States law of general application. 
 Interest Calculations 
 The Calculation Date, if applicable,
pertaining to any Interest Determination Date is the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day
immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. 
 At the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation
Agent will provide to the Holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective as of the next Interest Reset Date. 
 Accrued interest hereon shall be an amount calculated by multiplying the Principal Amount as specified on the face hereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor is computed by adding the interest
factor calculated for each day from the Issue Date, or from the last date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to but excluding the date for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is
computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360 if the Interest Rate Basis is CD Rate, Commercial Paper Rate, Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, EURIBOR or Prime Rate, as specified on the face hereof, or by the actual number of days in
the year if the Interest Rate Basis is CMT Rate or Treasury Rate, as specified on the 

  

 B-19 

 
face hereof. For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which is equivalent to the rate of interest payable on
this Note, except if the Interest Rate Basis of this Note is the CMT Rate or Treasury Rate, is the interest rate payable from time to time multiplied by the number of days in the year and divided by 360. 
 Rounding 
 All percentages resulting from any calculation on this Note will
be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or 0.09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or 0.0987655)), and all dollar
amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on this Note will be rounded to the nearest cent or, if this Note is denominated in a Foreign Currency, the nearest unit (with one half cent or unit being rounded upwards). 
 Payments 
 General 
 In the case where an Interest Payment Date or a Maturity Date does not fall on a Business Day, any payment of principal, premium or interest otherwise payable on such day
need not be made on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date or Maturity Date to such next succeeding Business Day, except that, in the case of payments of interest other than on the Maturity Date, if the Interest Rate Basis of this Note is LIBOR or EURIBOR, as specified above and such next
Business Day falls in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date. As used herein, “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 executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that (i) with respect to Notes as
to which LIBOR is the applicable Interest Rate Basis, such day is also a “London Business Day”; (ii) with respect to Foreign Currency Notes the payment of which is to be made in a Foreign Currency other than euros, such day is also a
day on which banking institutions are not authorized or required by law or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center of the country of the Foreign Currency; and (iii) with respect to Foreign Currency Notes the payment of which
is to be made in euros, such day is also a TARGET Settlement Day. 
  

 B-20 

 “London Business Day” means a day on which commercial banks are open for business (including dealings in the
Foreign Currencies) in London, England. 
 “Principal Financial Center”, as used for the purpose of the definition of “Business Day”,
shall be the capital city of the country of the applicable Foreign Currency, except that with respect to Canadian dollars, euros and Swiss francs, the Principal Financial Center shall be Montréal, Brussels and Zurich, respectively.

 Original Issue Discount Note 
 If this Note is
designated on the face hereof as an Original Issue Discount Note, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, upon the redemption, repayment or acceleration of the Stated Maturity of this Note there shall be payable, in
lieu of the Principal Amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, an amount equal to the Amortized Face Amount of this Note. The “Amortized Face Amount” shall be the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price (as defined below) of this Note,
plus (ii) that portion of the difference between the Issue Price and the Principal Amount of this Note that has been amortized at the Stated Yield (as defined below) of this Note (computed in accordance with generally accepted United States
bond yield computation principles) at the date as of which the Amortized Face Amount is calculated, but in no event shall the Amortized Face Amount exceed the Principal Amount of this Note. As used in the previous sentence “Issue Price”
means the Principal Amount of this Note less the Total Amount of OID of this Note specified on the face hereof and the “Stated Yield” of this Note means the Yield to Maturity specified on the face hereof (or if not so specified, the Yield
to Maturity compounded semi-annually and computed in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles) for the period from the Issue Date of this Note to the Stated Maturity hereof on the basis of its Issue Price
and Principal Amount. 
 Foreign Currency Payments 
 If
this Note is a Foreign Currency Note, the principal and premium, if any, and interest on this Note are payable by Québec in the Foreign Currency shown on the face hereof. Payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest will be made in
the Foreign Currency by wire transfer to the Holder’s bank account and the Holder will not have the option to elect payment in U.S. dollars. 
  

 B-21 

 If the Foreign Currency is not available for the payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest with respect to
this Note due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of Québec, Québec will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in U.S. dollars (i) on
the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the date of the payment, or (ii) if the Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate, or (iii) as the case may be,
as otherwise specified in “Other Provisions” on the face hereof. 
 In order for any Holder of this Note to receive payments of principal and
premium, if any, and interest in the Foreign Currency by wire transfer, such Holder shall designate an appropriate bank account by filing the appropriate information with the Fiscal Agent at its corporate trust office in The City of New York on or
prior to the applicable Record Date or at least sixteen days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case may be. The Fiscal Agent will, subject to applicable laws and regulations and until it receives notice to the contrary, make such payment
and all succeeding payments to such Holder by wire transfer to the designated account. If a payment cannot be made by wire transfer because the required information has not been received by the Fiscal Agent on or before the requisite date, a notice
will be mailed to the Holder of this Note at its registered address requesting such information and until such information has been received, no additional interest will accrue. 
 Québec will pay all administrative costs imposed by banks in connection with making payments by wire transfer, but any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon such payments will be borne by the
Holder of this Note. 
 The “Market Exchange Rate” with respect to any Foreign Currency shall be the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New
York for cable transfers for such Foreign Currency as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. 
  

 B-22 

 Redemption at the Option of Québec 
 If one or more Redemption Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on the face hereof, this Note is subject to redemption upon not less than thirty days’ and not more than sixty days’ prior notice by
mail, on any such date (or during any such range) as a whole, or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at
least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination), at the election of Québec, at the Redemption Price (as defined below) together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; but any interest payment due on an Interest Payment Date
falling on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holder hereof (or one or more predecessor Notes) of record at the close of business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest Payment Date. If applicable, the “Redemption
Price” for any such redemption shall be equal to the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face hereof (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction specified on the face hereof, if applicable) multiplied by the portion of
the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be redeemed; provided, however, that in no event shall the Redemption Price be less than 100% of the portion
of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be redeemed. 
 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, this Note (or the portion of the Principal Amount hereof so to be redeemed) shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price herein specified, and from and
after such date (unless Québec shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) shall cease to bear interest. 
 In the case
of any partial redemption at the election of Québec of Notes, the Notes of a particular tenor to be redeemed shall be selected by the Fiscal Agent not more than sixty days prior to the Redemption Date by such method as the Fiscal Agent shall
deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the Principal Amount of Notes. In the event of any redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor for the unredeemed portion
hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof, provided that such unredeemed portion shall be an authorized denomination for Notes of this series. 
  

 B-23 

 Repayment at the Option of Holder 
 If one or more Optional Repayment Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on the face hereof, this Note is subject to repayment on any such date (or during any such range) or, if such date is not a Business Day,
on the first Business Day following such date, as a whole or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at
least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination), at the election of the Holder hereof at the Repayment Price (as defined below) together with accrued interest thereon to the Optional Repayment Date, but any interest payment due on an Interest
Payment Date falling on or prior to the Optional Repayment Date will be payable to the Holder hereof of record at the close of business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest Payment Date. Such election shall be effected by the Holder hereof
delivering to Québec at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent in The City of New York not less than thirty nor more than sixty days prior to the date on which this Note is to be repaid, or during such other notice period specified on
the face hereof, a notice requesting such repayment in the form prescribed below and specifying the date upon which this Note is to be repaid. Any notice given by a Holder pursuant to this paragraph shall consist of this Note with the form entitled
“Option to Elect Repayment” set forth of the end of this Note duly completed. Exercise of the repayment option by the Holder hereof will be irrevocable. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the “Repayment Price” for any
such repayment shall be 100% of the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be repaid. 
 Status of the Notes 
 The Notes shall rank equally among themselves and with
the other debt securities of Québec outstanding on the date of this Note or issued hereafter. 
 Form, Denomination and Registration 
 The Notes are fully registered, without coupons, in authorized denominations of U.S.$1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof, or, in the case of
Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency, the equivalent in the Foreign Currency (rounded to an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Foreign Currency) or such larger amount of such Foreign Currency as may be specified on the face hereof. . The
Fiscal Agent has been appointed registrar for the Notes, and Québec will cause the Fiscal Agent to maintain at its corporate trust office in The City of New York a Note Register for the registration and transfer of Notes. 
  

 B-24 

 This Note may be transferred at the aforesaid office of the Fiscal Agent by surrendering this Note for cancellation,
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form approved by Québec and duly executed by the Holder hereof in person or by the Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Fiscal Agent shall issue in the name of
the transferee or transferees, in exchange herefor, a new Note or Notes in an equal aggregate Principal Amount and in authorized denominations, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. 
 The Notes are exchangeable at said office for other Notes of like tenor in other authorized denominations and in an equal aggregate Principal Amount. All such exchanges
of Notes will be free of charge, but Québec may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in connection therewith. The date of registration of any Note delivered upon any exchange or transfer of Notes
shall be such that no gain or loss of interest results from such exchange or transfer. The Fiscal Agent shall not be required to make any transfers, registrations or exchanges of Notes for a period of fifteen days preceding any Interest Payment
Date. 
 In the event of any redemption of Notes at the election of Québec, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to (i) issue, register the
transfer of or exchange Notes of like tenor during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days before any selection of Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the relevant notice of
redemption, or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Following the exercise of any repayment option by the Holder hereof,
the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange that portion of this Note with respect to which such option has been exercised. 
 Events of Default 
 In the event that (i) Québec shall default in the payment of principal of or premium or
interest on this Note as and when the same shall be due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of 45 days, or (ii) default shall be made in the due performance or observance by Québec of any covenant or agreement
contained in the Notes, other than the payment of principal, premium or interest, or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, and such default shall continue for a period of 60 days, or (iii) Québec shall default in the payment of any principal
of or premium or interest on any indebtedness (direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money, other than 

  

 B-25 

 
the Notes, as and when the same shall be due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of 45 days, provided that the foregoing shall
not be taken into account so long as the aggregate principal amount of all such indebtedness (direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money with respect to which the foregoing has occurred does not exceed U.S.$50,000,000 (or its equivalent in
other currencies), then at any time thereafter and during the continuance of such default the Holder of this Note (or its proxy) may deliver or cause to be delivered to Québec (with a copy to the Fiscal Agent) a written notice that such
Holder elects to declare the principal of the Note or Notes held by him (the serial number or numbers and the denomination or denominations of which shall be set forth in such notice) to be due and payable and, in the cases falling within either
(i) or (iii) above, on the 15th day after delivery of such notice, or, in the cases falling within (ii) above, on the 30th day after delivery of such notice, the principal of the Note or Notes referred to in such notice plus any
premium and accrued interest thereon shall become due and payable at the places for payment herein specified, unless prior to that time all such defaults theretofore existing shall have been cured. 
 Modification 
 The Fiscal Agency Agreement contains provisions with respect
to modifying or amending said Agreement either without notice to, or the consent of, the holder of any Note or with the approval of the holders of Notes. 
 Future Holders 
 Any action by the Holder of this Note shall bind all future Holders of this Note, and of any Note issued in exchange or
substitution herefor or in place hereof, in respect of anything done or permitted by Québec or by the Fiscal Agent in pursuance of such action. 
 Notices 
 All notices to the holders of Notes will be published in English in New York, New York in The Wall Street Journal and in Toronto,
Ontario in The Globe & Mail and in French in Montréal, Québec in La Presse. If at any time publication in any such newspaper is not practicable, notices will be valid if published in an English language
newspaper, or, if in Québec, a French language newspaper, with general circulation in the respective market regions as Québec, with the approval of the Fiscal Agent, shall determine. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given
on the date of such publication or, if published more than once or on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made. 
  

 B-26 

 Office or Agency of Québec 
 So long as this Note shall be outstanding, Québec will maintain an office or agency for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note as herein provided in The City of New York, and an office or
agency in The City of New York for the registration, transfer and exchange as aforesaid of the Notes. Québec may designate other agencies for the payment of said principal and premium, if any, and interest at such place or places (subject to
applicable laws and regulations) as Québec may decide. So long as there shall be a Fiscal Agent, Québec shall keep the Fiscal Agent advised of the names and locations of such agencies, if any are so designated. 
 No recourse under or upon any covenant contained in this Note or because of the creation of the indebtedness represented hereby shall be had against any official or
other representative, past, present or future, as such, of Québec whether by virtue of any statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being expressly agreed and understood that this Note is
solely the obligation of Québec and that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to or be incurred by any such officials or other representatives, as such, because of the execution of this Note. 
 Prescription 
 Under current Québec law, Québec’s
obligation to make any payment on the Notes shall be extinguished three years after the date such payment is due unless the right to such payment is judicially exercised prior to the expiration of such three-year period. 
 Governing Law 
 The Notes shall be construed in accordance and governed by
the laws of Québec and the laws of Canada applicable therein. 
 Québec irrevocably consents to the fullest extent permitted by law to the
giving of any relief (including, without limitation, the making, enforcement or execution against any property of any order or judgment) made or given in connection with any proceedings arising out of or in connection with the Fiscal Agency
Agreement and the Notes.

instructions of the Depositary as provided on the reverse hereof, the Principal Amount specified above (any currency other than U.S. dollars being hereinafter referred to as a “Foreign Currency”) at the Stated Maturity specified above and
to pay interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate specified above until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. Interest on this Global Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately preceding
Interest Payment Date specified above in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from the Issue Date specified above to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or, in respect
of any part of the Principal Amount due on a Maturity Date (as defined below), such Maturity Date, as the case may be. Except as provided herein, Québec will pay interest on the Interest Payment Date(s) specified above and in respect of any
part of the Principal Amount due on a Maturity Date, on such Maturity Date commencing on the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Issue Date, unless the Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as defined below) and the Interest Payment
Date to which such Record Date pertains, in which case commencing on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Record Date to the Holder (as defined below) on such next succeeding Record Date. 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 Global Note (or one or more predecessor Global Notes) is registered (the “Holder”) in the register of the names and addresses of Holders

interest payable on a Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the part of the Principal Amount due on such Maturity Date shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable
to the Holder on such Record Date and may either be paid to the person in whose name this Global Note (or one or more predecessor Global Notes) is registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such defaulted
interest to be fixed by the Fiscal Agent, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes of this series not less than ten 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 this Global Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange. 
 Upon
presentation of this Global Note on a Maturity Date at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, or at such other office or agency of Québec maintained by it in The City of New York
for the purpose of making such payments, payment of the principal of this Global Note and premium, if any, and interest due on such Maturity Date will be made to the Holder of this Global Note on such Maturity Date in immediately available funds or,
if such payment is to be made in a Foreign Currency, by wire transfer to the bank account or accounts designated by the Depositary as provided on the reverse hereof. If payments of interest, other than on a Maturity Date, on this Global Note are to
be made in U.S. dollars, such payments will be made by check mailed to the address of such Holder as it appears in the Note Register, or, if such payments are to be made in a Foreign Currency as provided on the reverse hereof, by wire transfer to
the Holder’s bank account, as designated by the Holder of this Global Note by written notice to the Fiscal Agent on or prior to the applicable Record Date. A Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes (whether
having identical or different terms and provisions) shall be entitled to receive payments of interest, other than on a Maturity Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received by the
Fiscal Agent not less than ten days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. As more fully provided on the reverse hereof, payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note will be made in such coin or 

  

 C-3 

 
currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public or private debts, unless the Specified Currency
indicated above is a Foreign Currency (a “Foreign Currency Note”) and payment is to be made in such Foreign Currency as provided on the reverse hereof, in which case payment shall be made in such Foreign Currency. 
 REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS GLOBAL NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF, WHICH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES HAVE THE SAME

 QUÉBEC 
 GLOBAL MEDIUM-TERM NOTE 
 SERIES A 
 FIXED RATE 
 General 
 This Global Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Medium-Term Notes, Series A (the “Notes”), Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue, as selected by the purchaser and agreed to by Québec. The
Notes are issuable in a single series under a fiscal agency agreement, dated as of May 30, 2002, as may be amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), among Québec and Citibank, N.A., as fiscal
agent (the “Fiscal Agent”, which term shall include, unless the context otherwise requires, its successors and assigns), in an aggregate initial offering price of up to U.S.$3,000,000,000 at any one time outstanding, or the equivalent
thereof in other currencies at the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the applicable settlement dates in the case of Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency. The foregoing limit, however, may be increased by Québec if in the future it
determines that it may wish to sell additional Notes. The Fiscal Agency Agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, but any such amendment or supplement will not affect the rights of the Holder
hereunder. 
 As used herein, “Maturity Date”, when used with respect to this Global Note, means the date on which the Principal Amount of this
Note or any part thereof becomes due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise. 
 Payments 
 General 
 Interest payments for this
Global Note will be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which is equivalent to the rate of interest payable on this Global
Note is the Interest Rate specified on the face hereof multiplied by the number of days in the year and divided by 360. 
  

 C-6 

 In the case where an Interest Payment Date or a Maturity Date does not fall on a Business Day, any payment of principal,
premium or interest otherwise payable on such day need not be made on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date and no interest shall accrue
for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date to such next succeeding Business Day. As used herein, “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 executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that (i) with respect to Foreign Currency Notes the payment of which is to be made in a Foreign
Currency other than euros, such day is also a day on which banking institutions are not authorized or required by law or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center of the country of the Foreign Currency; and (ii) with respect to
Foreign Currency Notes the payment of which is to be made in euros, such day is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) system, or any successor system, is open for business. 

“Principal Financial Center”, as used for the purpose of the definition of “Business Day”, shall be the capital city of the country of the
applicable Foreign Currency, except that with respect to Canadian dollars, euros and Swiss francs, the Principal Financial Center shall be Montréal, Brussels and Zurich, respectively. 
 Original Issue Discount Note 
 If this Global Note is designated on
the face hereof as an Original Issue Discount Note, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Global Note, upon the redemption, repayment or acceleration of the Stated Maturity of this Global Note there shall be payable, in
lieu of the Principal Amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, an amount equal to the Amortized Face Amount of this Global Note. The “Amortized Face Amount” shall be the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price (as defined below) of this
Global Note, plus (ii) that portion of the difference between the Issue Price and the Principal Amount of this Global Note that has been amortized at the Stated Yield (as defined below) of this Global Note (computed in accordance with generally
accepted United States bond yield computation principles) at the date as of which the Amortized Face Amount is calculated, but in no event shall the Amortized Face Amount exceed the Principal Amount of this Global Note. As used in the previous
sentence “Issue Price” means the Principal Amount of this Global Note less the Total Amount of OID of this Global Note specified on the face hereof and the “Stated Yield” of 

  

 C-7 

 
this Global Note means the Yield to Maturity specified on the face hereof (or if not so specified, the Yield to Maturity compounded semi-annually and
computed in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles) for the period from the Issue Date of this Global Note to the Stated Maturity hereof on the basis of its Issue Price and Principal Amount. 
 Foreign Currency Note 
 If this Global Note is a Foreign Currency
Note, the principal and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note are payable by Québec in the Foreign Currency shown on the face hereof. If the box under the heading “Payments of Principal and Premium, if any, and Interest”
shown on the face hereof marked “U.S. dollars” has been checked, Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as exchange rate agent, or such other person as shall be appointed by Québec (the “Exchange Rate Agent”, which term shall
include, unless the context otherwise requires, its successors and assigns), will convert all payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note to U.S. dollars, unless a beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note
elects to receive such payments in the Foreign Currency as described below. Any U.S. dollar amount to be received by a Holder of this Global Note will be based on either a bid quotation that the Exchange Rate Agent or any of its affiliates quotes,
which shall be a competitive quotation in the market at that time for such a transaction, or a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in The City of New York selected by the Exchange Rate Agent, at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the
second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date for purchase by the Exchange Rate Agent of the Foreign Currency for U.S. dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of the Foreign Currency due to all Holders of
Notes scheduled to receive U.S. dollar payments. All currency exchange risks and costs will be borne by the Holder of this Global Note by deductions from such payments. Notwithstanding the above, the beneficial owner of an interest in this Global
Note may elect to receive payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note in the Foreign Currency by transmitting a written request for such payment (and designating at the same time the appropriate bank account to
which the payment will be made) to the participant through which its interest is held on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least fifteen days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such participant must notify the
Depositary of such election and designated bank account on or prior to the third Business Days after the applicable Record Date or 

  

 C-8 

 
at least ten days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such Depositary must notify the Fiscal Agent of such election and designated
bank account on or prior to the fifth Business Day after the applicable Record Date or at least ten days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case may be. Such request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by facsimile transmission. The
beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note may elect to receive payment in the Foreign Currency for all principal, premium and interest payments and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect
until revoked by written notice to the Fiscal Agent, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Fiscal Agent on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least sixteen days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case
may be. 
 If the box under the heading “Payments of Principal and Premium, if any, and Interest” shown on the face hereof marked “Foreign
Currency” has been checked, payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest will be made in the Foreign Currency and a beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note will not have the option to elect payment in U.S. dollars.

 If the Foreign Currency is not available for the payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest with respect to this Global Note due to the
imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of Québec, Québec will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Global Note by making such payment in U.S. dollars (i) on the basis of
the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the date of the payment, or (ii) if the Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate, or (iii) as the case may be, as otherwise
specified in “Other Provisions” on the face hereof. 
 The Fiscal Agent will, subject to applicable laws and regulations, make all payments in the
Foreign Currency with respect to this Global Note by wire transfers to the appropriate bank accounts of which DTC or any other depositary through which this Global Note is held, as the case may be, notifies the Fiscal Agent which shall be, where
such payment is made as a result of an election by a beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note as provided above, the accounts designated as provided above. 
 In order for any Holder of this Global Note entitled to receive payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest in the Foreign Currency to receive such payments by wire transfer, such Holder shall designate an
appropriate bank account. Such designation shall 

  

 C-9 

 
be made by filing the appropriate information with the Fiscal Agent at its corporate trust office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable
Record Date or at least sixteen days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case may be. The Fiscal Agent will, subject to applicable laws and regulations and until it receives notice to the contrary, make such payment and all succeeding
payments to such Holder by wire transfer to the designated account. If a payment cannot be made by wire transfer because the required information has not been received by the Fiscal Agent on or before the requisite date, a notice will be mailed to
the Holder of this Global Note at its registered address requesting such information and until such information has been received, no additional interest will accrue. 
 Québec will pay all administrative costs imposed by banks in connection with making payments by wire transfer, but any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon such payments will be borne by the
Holder of this Global Note. 
 The “Market Exchange Rate” with respect to any Foreign Currency shall be the noon dollar buying rate in The City of
New York for cable transfers for such Foreign Currency as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. 
 Redemption at the
Option of Québec 
 If one or more Redemption Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on the face hereof, this Global Note is subject to
redemption upon not less than thirty days’ and not more than sixty days’ prior notice by mail, on any such date (or during any such range) as a whole, or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum
denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination), at the election of Québec, at the Redemption Price (as defined below) together
with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; but any interest payment due on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holder hereof (or one or more predecessor Notes) of record at the close of
business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest Payment Date. If applicable, the “Redemption Price” for any such redemption shall be equal to the Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face hereof (as adjusted by the Annual
Redemption Percentage Reduction specified on the face hereof, if applicable) multiplied by the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Global Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face 

  

 C-10 

 
Amount hereof) to be redeemed; provided, however, that in no event shall the Redemption Price be less than 100% of the portion of the Principal Amount hereof
(or, if this Global Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be redeemed. 
 Notice of redemption having
been given as aforesaid, this Global Note (or the portion of the Principal Amount hereof so to be redeemed) shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price herein specified, and from and after such date (unless
Québec shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) shall cease to bear interest. 
 In the case of any partial
redemption at the election of Québec of Notes, the Notes of a particular tenor to be redeemed shall be selected by the Fiscal Agent not more than sixty days prior to the Redemption Date by such method as the Fiscal Agent shall deem fair and
appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the Principal Amount of Notes. In the event of any redemption of this Global Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof
will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof, provided that such unredeemed portion shall be an authorized denomination for Notes of this series. 
 Repayment at the Option of Holder 
 If one or more Optional Repayment Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on
the face hereof, this Global Note is subject to repayment on any such date (or during any such range) or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the first Business Day following such date, as a whole or from time to time in part, in increments of
U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination), at the election of the Holder hereof at the Repayment
Price (as defined below) together with accrued interest thereon to the Optional Repayment Date, but any interest payment due on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Optional Repayment Date will be payable to the Holder hereof of
record at the close of business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest Payment Date. Such election shall be effected by the Holder hereof delivering to Québec at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent in The City of New York
not less than thirty nor more than sixty days prior to the date on which this Global Note is to be repaid, or during such other notice period specified on the face hereof, a notice requesting such repayment in the form prescribed below and
specifying the 

  

 C-11 

 
date upon which this Global Note is to be repaid. Any notice given by a Holder pursuant to this paragraph shall consist of this Global Note with the form
entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” set forth of the end of this Global Note duly completed. Exercise of the repayment option by the Holder hereof will be irrevocable. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the “Repayment
Price” for any such repayment shall be 100% of the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Global Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be repaid. 
 Status of the Notes 
 The Notes shall rank equally among themselves and with
the other debt securities of Québec outstanding on the date of this Global Note or issued hereafter. 
 Form, Denomination and Registration

 The Notes are fully registered, without coupons, in authorized denominations of U.S.$1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof, or,
in the case of Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency, the equivalent in the Foreign Currency (rounded to an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Foreign Currency) or such larger amount of such Foreign Currency as may be specified on the face
hereof. The Fiscal Agent has been appointed registrar for the Notes, and Québec will cause the Fiscal Agent to maintain at its corporate trust office in The City of New York a Note Register for the registration and transfer of Notes.

 This Note is a Global Note registered in the name of a nominee of the Depositary. This Global Note is exchangeable for certificated Notes in definitive
form (“Certificated Notes”) registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited circumstances hereinafter described. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for Certificated Notes,
this Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary, or by the Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary
to a successor of the Depositary or a nominee of such successor. 
  

 C-12 

 The Notes represented by this Global Note are exchangeable for Certificated Notes of like tenor as such Notes in
denominations of U.S.$1,000 and integral multiples thereof only (i) if the Depositary notifies Québec that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this Global Note or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing
agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by Québec within 90 days after receiving the notice or becoming aware that the Depositary is no longer registered as the
Depositary, or (ii) if Québec executes and delivers to the Fiscal Agent a written notice that all Global Notes representing Notes shall be exchangeable, or (iii) upon request to the Fiscal Agent by the Depositary, acting on direct
or indirect instructions of a Holder or any beneficial owner of interests in this Global Note, after an event of default entitling the Holders to accelerate the Stated Maturity of the Notes represented by this Global Note has occurred and is
continuing, provided that if the Depositary is unwilling or does not promptly make such request to the Fiscal Agent, then any beneficial owner of interests in this Global Note shall be entitled to make such request with respect to such
interest. If the exchange is made pursuant to clause (iii), then the Notes represented by this Global Note may be exchangeable for Certificated Notes in whole or in part. If the Notes represented by this Global Note become exchangeable as provided
above, Québec shall issue or cause to be issued Certificated Notes upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, Notes represented by this Global Note. All such exchanges will be free of charge, but Québec may require payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in connection therewith. The date of registration of any Certificated Note delivered upon any exchange or transfer of a Global Note shall be such that no gain or loss of interest
results from such exchange or transfer. The Fiscal Agent shall not be required to make any transfers, registrations or exchanges of Global Notes for a period of fifteen days preceding any Interest Payment Date. 
 In respect of any such issuance of Certificated Notes, (i) Québec shall promptly provide the Fiscal Agent with a sufficient number of Certificated Notes in
blank form to proceed with such issuance, (ii) the Depositary shall cause this Global Note to be delivered to the Fiscal Agent and provide the Fiscal Agent with the necessary registration information for such Certificated Notes, (iii) the
Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and deliver such Certificated Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Global Note to be exchanged for such Certificated Notes, (iv) the Fiscal Agent shall cancel this Global
Note and, in the case of a partial exchange, issue and deliver to or to the order of the Depositary a new Global Note in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unexchanged portion of this Global Note and (v) the Fiscal Agent shall reduce
accordingly the holdings of the Holder on the 

  

 C-13 

 
Register. The Fiscal Agent shall have at least 30 days from the date of its receipt of Certificated Notes and registration information to authenticate and
deliver such Certificated Notes. Such Certificated Notes shall be registered in such names and in such denominations as DTC, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants, shall direct and shall be delivered as directed by the
persons in whose names such Certificated Notes are to be registered. All Notes represented by Certificated Notes issued upon any such issuance in exchange for the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be valid obligations of Québec and
shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Fiscal Agency Agreement as the Global Notes. 
 Québec expressly acknowledges that if Certificated
Notes are not promptly issued to a beneficial owner of an interest in a Global Note as contemplated herein, then such beneficial owner shall be entitled to pursue any remedy under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Note or applicable law with respect
to the portion of this Global Note that represents such beneficial owner’s interest as if such Certificated Notes had been issued. 
 In the event of
any redemption of Notes represented by this Global Note at the election of Québec, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange Global Notes of like tenor during a period beginning at the
opening of business fifteen days before any selection of such Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange this Global Note,
or, except in the case of a partial redemption, the unredeemed portion of this Global Note. Following the exercise of any repayment option by the Holder hereof, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange
that portion of this Global Note with respect to which such option has been exercised. 
 Subject to the foregoing, this Global Note is not exchangeable,
except for a Global Note or Global Notes in an equal aggregate Principal Amount to be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee. 
 Events of
Default 
 In the event that (i) Québec shall default in the payment of principal of or premium or interest on this Global Note as and when the
same shall be due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of 45 days, or (ii) default shall be made in the due performance or observance by Québec of any covenant or agreement contained in the Global Notes, other than
the payment of 

  

 C-14 

 
principal, premium or interest, or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, and such default shall continue for a period of 60 days, or (iii) Québec shall
default in the payment of any principal of or premium or interest on any indebtedness (direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money, other than the Global Notes, as and when the same shall be due and payable, and such default shall continue for a
period of 45 days, provided that the foregoing shall not be taken into account so long as the aggregate principal amount of all such indebtedness (direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money with respect to which the foregoing has
occurred does not exceed U.S.$50,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies), then at any time thereafter and during the continuance of such default the Holder of this Global Note (or its proxy) may deliver or cause to be delivered to
Québec (with a copy to the Fiscal Agent) a written notice that such Holder elects to declare the principal of the Note or Notes held by him (the serial number or numbers of the Global Note representing such Notes and the Principal Amount of
the Notes owned by him and the subject of such declaration being set forth in such notice) to be due and payable and, in the cases falling within either (i) or (iii) above, on the 15th day after delivery of such notice, or, in the cases
falling within (ii) above, on the 30th day after delivery of such notice, the principal of the Note or Notes referred to in such notice plus any premium and accrued interest thereon shall become due and payable at the places for payment herein
specified, unless prior to that time all such defaults theretofore existing shall have been cured. 
 Modification 
 The Fiscal Agency Agreement contains provisions with respect to modifying or amending said Agreement either without notice to, or the consent of, the holder of any Note
or with the approval of the holders of Notes. 
 Future Holders 
 Any action by the Holder of this Global Note shall bind all future Holders of this Global Note, and of any Note issued in exchange or substitution herefor or in place hereof, in respect of anything done or permitted by Québec or by
the Fiscal Agent in pursuance of such action. 
 Notices 
 All
notices to the Holders of Global Notes will be given in writing mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at each Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of
such mailing. 
  

 C-15 

 However, when Certificated Notes are outstanding, all notices to the Holders of Notes will be published in English in New
York, New York in The Wall Street Journal and in Toronto, Ontario in The Globe & Mail and in French in Montréal, Québec in La Presse. If at any time publication in any such newspaper is not practicable,
notices will be valid if published in an English language newspaper, or, if in Québec, a French language newspaper, with general circulation in the respective market regions as Québec, with the approval of the Fiscal Agent, shall
determine. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such publication or, if published more than once or on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made. 
 Office or Agency of Québec 
 So long as this Global Note shall be
outstanding, Québec will maintain an office or agency for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note as herein provided in The City of New York, and an office or agency in The City of New York for
the registration, transfer and exchange as aforesaid of the Notes. Québec may designate other agencies for the payment of said principal and premium, if any, and interest at such place or places (subject to applicable laws and regulations) as
Québec may decide. So long as there shall be a Fiscal Agent, Québec shall keep the Fiscal Agent advised of the names and locations of such agencies, if any are so designated. 
 No recourse under or upon any covenant contained in this Global Note or because of the creation of the indebtedness represented hereby shall be had against any official
or other representative, past, present or future, as such, of Québec whether by virtue of any statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being expressly agreed and understood that this Global
Note is solely the obligation of Québec and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any such officials or other representatives, as such, because of the execution of this Global Note. 
 Prescription 
 Under current Québec law, Québec’s
obligation to make any payment on the Notes shall be extinguished three years after the date such payment is due unless the right to such payment is judicially exercised prior to the expiration of such three-year period. 
  

 C-16 

 Governing Law 
 The Notes
shall be construed in accordance and governed by the laws of Québec and the laws of Canada applicable therein. 
 Québec irrevocably consents
to the fullest extent permitted by law to the giving of any relief (including, without limitation, the making, enforcement or execution against any property of any order or judgment) made or given in connection with any proceedings arising out of or
in connection with the Fiscal Agency Agreement and the Notes. 
 U.S. Dollars 
 Reference in this Global Note to “U.S. dollars” is to the currency of the United States of America.

currency other than U.S. dollars being hereinafter referred to as a “Foreign Currency”) at the Stated Maturity specified above and to pay interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the
first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Issue Date specified above and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions on the reverse hereof under the heading “Determination of CD Rate”,
“Determination of CMT Rate”, “Determination of Commercial Paper Rate”, “Determination of Federal Funds Rate”, “Determination of LIBOR”, “Determination of EURIBOR”, “Determination of Prime
Rate” or “Determination of Treasury Rate”, depending upon whether the Interest Rate Basis 

  

 D-2 

 
specified above is CD Rate, CMT Rate, Commercial Paper Rate, Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, EURIBOR, Prime Rate or Treasury Rate, until the principal hereof is
paid or duly made available for payment. Interest on this Global Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date specified above in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest
has been paid, from the Issue Date specified above to, but excluding, the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or, in respect of any part of the Principal Amount due on a Maturity Date (as defined below), such Maturity Date, as the case may be,
except that the interest payment on a Maturity Date will include interest accrued to but excluding such date. Except as provided herein, Québec will pay interest monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above under
“Interest Payment Period”, commencing with the first Interest Payment Date specified above next succeeding the Issue Date, unless the Issue Date occurs between a Record Date and the Interest Payment Date to which such Record Date pertains,
in which case commencing on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Record Date and in respect of any part of the Principal Amount due on a Maturity Date, on such Maturity Date. 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 Global Note (or one or more predecessor Global Notes) is registered (the “Holder”) in the register of the names and addresses of Holders of Notes (the
“Note Register”) maintained by Québec at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent (as defined on the reverse hereof) at the close of business on the date fifteen calendar days prior to an Interest Payment Date (whether or not
a Business Day (as defined on the reverse hereof)) (a “Record Date”), or in accordance with the instructions of the Depositary as provided on the reverse hereof; provided, however, that interest payable on a Maturity Date
will be payable to the person to whom the part of the Principal Amount due on such Maturity Date shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Record Date and
may either be paid to the person in whose name this Global Note (or one or more predecessor Global Notes) is registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Fiscal Agent,
notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes of this series not less than ten 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
this Global Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange. 
  

 D-3 

 Upon presentation of this Global Note on a Maturity Date at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent maintained for
that purpose in The City of New York, or at such other office or agency of Québec maintained by it in The City of New York for the purpose of making such payments, payment of the principal of this Global Note and premium, if any, and interest
due on such Maturity Date will be made to the Holder of this Global Note on such Maturity Date in immediately available funds or, if such payment is to be made in a Foreign Currency, by wire transfer to the bank account or accounts designated by the
Depositary as provided on the reverse hereof. If payments of interest, other than on a Maturity Date, on this Global Note are to be made in U.S. dollars, such payments will be made by check mailed to the address of such Holder as it appears in the
Note Register, or, if such payments are to be made in a Foreign Currency as provided on the reverse hereof, by wire transfer to the Holder’s bank account, as designated by the Holder of this Global Note by written notice to the Fiscal Agent on
or prior to the applicable Record Date. A Holder of U.S.$10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes (whether having identical or different terms and provisions) shall be entitled to receive payments of interest, other than on a
Maturity Date, by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received by the Fiscal Agent not less than ten days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. As more fully provided on the

 QUÉBEC 
 GLOBAL MEDIUM-TERM NOTE 
 SERIES A 
 FLOATING RATE 
 General 
 This Global Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Medium-Term Notes, Series A (the “Notes”), Due Nine Months or More from Date of Issue, as selected by the purchaser and agreed to by Québec. The
Notes are issuable in a single series under a fiscal agency agreement, dated as of May 30, 2002, as may be amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Fiscal Agency Agreement”), among Québec and Citibank, N.A., as fiscal
agent (the “Fiscal Agent”, which term shall include, unless the context otherwise requires, its successors and assigns), in an aggregate initial offering price of up to U.S.$3,000,000,000 at any one time outstanding, or the equivalent
thereof in other currencies at the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the applicable settlement dates in the case of Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency. The foregoing limit, however, may be increased by Québec if in the future it
determines that it may wish to sell additional Notes. The Fiscal Agency Agreement may be amended or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms thereof, but any such amendment or supplement will not affect the rights of the Holder
hereunder. 
 As used herein, “Maturity Date”, when used with respect to this Global Note, means the date on which the Principal Amount of this
Note or any part thereof becomes due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise. 
 Interest 
 General 
 Commencing with the first
Interest Reset Date specified on the face hereof following the Issue Date, the rate at which interest on this Global Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified on the face hereof under
“Interest Rate Reset Period”; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period from the Issue Date to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate. If any Interest Reset Date would
otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day (as 

  

 D-6 

 
defined below), such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that in the case the Interest Rate
Basis is LIBOR or EURIBOR, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. Subject to applicable provisions of law and except as specified herein, on each
Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Global Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below. 
 Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis is CD Rate, the interest rate payable with respect to this Note shall equal the CD Rate determined as specified herein, plus or minus the Spread, if any, specified on the
face hereof or multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof. The CD Rate shall equal the rate as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date specified on the face hereof (a “CD Rate Interest
Determination Date”) for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in H.15(519) under the heading “CDs
(secondary market)”. If such rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date (as defined below) pertaining to such CD Rate Interest Determination Date, then the CD Rate shall be the rate on such
CD Rate Interest Determination Date set forth in H.15 Daily Update for that day in respect of certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above under the heading “CD(s) (secondary market)”. If such rate is not yet published
in H.15(519), H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to such CD Rate Interest Determination Rate, then the CD Rate on such CD Rate Interest
Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates, as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such CD Rate Interest Determination Date, of three leading
non-bank dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with Québec (and which may include the agents appointed by Québec for the purpose of
soliciting purchases of the Notes by others from Québec (the “Agents”) and affiliates of the Agents) for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money center banks with a remaining maturity closest to
the specified Index Maturity and in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in such market at such time, provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as
mentioned in this sentence, the CD Rate determined as of such CD Rate Interest Determination Date shall be the CD Rate in effect on such CD Rate Interest Determination Date.

Designated LIBOR Currency in such market at that time. If at least two quotations are so provided, then LIBOR on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date shall be the arithmetic mean of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are so provided,
then LIBOR on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 A.M., in the applicable Principal Financial Center, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date by three major banks (which

appears in H.15(519) under the heading “Bank Prime Loan”. 
 If such rate is not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Rate Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate shall be the rate on such Prime Rate Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update under the heading “Bank Prime Loan”.

 If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not published in either H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update or such other

Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, is not so announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, or if no such Auction is held, then the Treasury Rate shall be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on that Treasury Rate Interest
Determination Date of Treasury Bills having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, as published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government securities/Treasury bills/secondary market” or, if not yet published by 3:00 P.M.,
New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, the rate on that Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date of such Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying
such rate, under the caption “U.S. Government securities/Treasury bills/secondary market”. If that rate is not yet published in H.15(519), H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the
related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on that
Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date, of three leading primary U.S. government securities dealers (which may include the Agents or their affiliates) selected by the Calculation Agent after consultation with Québec, for the issue of
Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof; provided, however, that if the dealers so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Treasury Rate
determined as of that Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date shall be the Treasury Rate in effect on such Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date. 
 “Bond Equivalent Yield” shall be the yield calculated in accordance with the following formula: 
  

					
	Bond Equivalent Yield = 	 	D × N × 100  	  	
	 	360 – (D × M)  	  	

  

 D-18 

 where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank discount basis and
expressed as a decimal, “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the Interest Payment Period for which interest is being calculated. 
 Maximum/Minimum Interest Rate 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof. The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the
foregoing on or before each Calculation Date. The interest rate on this Global Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified by United States law of general application. 
 Interest Calculations 
 The Calculation Date, if applicable,
pertaining to any Interest Determination Date is the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day
immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. 
 At the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation
Agent will provide to the Holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective as of the next Interest Reset Date. 
 Accrued interest hereon shall be an amount calculated by multiplying the Principal Amount as specified on the face hereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor is computed by adding the interest
factor calculated for each day from the Issue Date, or from the last date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to but excluding the date for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is
computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360 if the Interest Rate Basis is CD Rate, Commercial Paper Rate, Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, EURIBOR or Prime Rate, as specified on the face hereof, or by the actual number of days in
the year if the Interest Rate Basis is CMT Rate or Treasury Rate, as specified on the 

  

 D-19 

 
face hereof. For purposes of disclosure under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest which is equivalent to the rate of interest payable on
this Global Note, except if the Interest Rate Basis of this Global Note is the CMT Rate or Treasury Rate, is the interest rate payable from time to time multiplied by the number of days in the year and divided by 360. 
 Rounding 
 All percentages resulting from any calculation on this Global Note
will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or 0.09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or 0.0987655)), and all
dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on this Note will be rounded to the nearest cent or, if this Note is denominated in a Foreign Currency, the nearest unit (with one half cent or unit being rounded upwards). 
 Payments 
 General 
 In the case where an Interest Payment Date or a Maturity Date does not fall on a Business Day, any payment of principal, premium or interest otherwise payable on such day
need not be made on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date or Maturity Date to such next succeeding Business Day, except that, in the case of payments of interest other than on the Maturity Date, if the Interest Rate Basis of this Note is LIBOR or EURIBOR, as specified above and such next
Business Day falls in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date. As used herein, “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 executive order to close in The City of New York; provided, however, that (i) with
respect to Notes as to which LIBOR is the applicable Interest Rate Basis, such day is also a “London Business Day”; (ii) with respect to Foreign Currency Notes the payment of which is to be made in a Foreign Currency other than euros,
such day is also a day on which banking institutions are not authorized or required by law or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center of the country of the Foreign Currency; and (iii) with respect to Foreign Currency Notes
the payment of which is to be made in euros, such day is also a TARGET Settlement Day. 
  

 D-20 

 “London Business Day” means a day on which commercial banks are open for business (including dealings in the
Foreign Currencies) in London, England. 
 “Principal Financial Center”, as used for the purpose of the definition of “Business Day”,
shall be the capital city of the country of the applicable Foreign Currency, except that with respect to Canadian dollars, euros and Swiss francs, the Principal Financial Center shall be Montréal, Brussels and Zurich, respectively.

 Original Issue Discount Note 
 If this Global Note is
designated on the face hereof as an Original Issue Discount Note, then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Global Note, upon the redemption, repayment or acceleration of the Stated Maturity of this Global Note there shall be
payable, in lieu of the Principal Amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, an amount equal to the Amortized Face Amount of this Global Note. The “Amortized Face Amount” shall be the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price (as defined
below) of this Global Note, plus (ii) that portion of the difference between the Issue Price and the Principal Amount of this Global Note that has been amortized at the Stated Yield (as defined below) of this Global Note (computed in accordance
with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles) at the date as of which the Amortized Face Amount is calculated, but in no event shall the Amortized Face Amount exceed the Principal Amount of this Global Note. As used in the
previous sentence “Issue Price” means the Principal Amount of this Global Note less the Total Amount of OID of this Global Note specified on the face hereof and the “Stated Yield” of this Global Note means the Yield to Maturity
specified on the face hereof (or if not so specified, the Yield to Maturity compounded semi-annually and computed in accordance with generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles) for the period from the Issue Date of this
Global Note to the Stated Maturity hereof on the basis of its Issue Price and Principal Amount. 
  

 D-21 

 Foreign Currency Note 
 If this Global Note is a Foreign Currency Note, the principal and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note are payable by Québec in the Foreign Currency shown on the face hereof. If the box under the heading “Payments
of Principal and Premium, if any, and Interest” shown on the face hereof marked “U.S. dollars” has been checked, Citibank, N.A., in its capacity as exchange rate agent, or such other person as shall be appointed by Québec (the
“Exchange Rate Agent”, which term shall include, unless the context otherwise requires, its successors and assigns), will convert all payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note to U.S. dollars, unless a
beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note elects to receive such payments in the Foreign Currency as described below. Any U.S. dollar amount to be received by a Holder of this Global Note will be based on either a bid quotation that the
Exchange Rate Agent or any of its affiliates quotes, which shall be a competitive quotation in the market at that time for such a transaction, or a bid quotation from a leading foreign exchange bank in The City of New York selected by the Exchange
Rate Agent, at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date for purchase by the Exchange Rate Agent of the Foreign Currency for U.S. dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate
amount of the Foreign Currency due to all Holders of Notes scheduled to receive U.S. dollar payments. All currency exchange risks and costs will be borne by the Holder of this Global Note by deductions from such payments. Notwithstanding the above,
the beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note may elect to receive payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note in the Foreign Currency by transmitting a written request for such payment (and
designating at the same time the appropriate bank account to which the payment will be made) to the participant through which its interest is held on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least fifteen days prior to the applicable Maturity
Date, as the case may be. Such participant must notify the Depositary of such election and designated bank account on or prior to the third Business Days after the applicable Record Date or at least ten days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as
the case may be. Such Depositary must notify the Fiscal Agent of such election and designated bank account on or prior to the fifth Business Day after the applicable Record Date or at least ten days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case
may be. Such request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by facsimile transmission. The beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note may elect to receive payment in the Foreign Currency for all principal, premium and interest payments and
need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Fiscal Agent, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Fiscal Agent on or prior to the applicable
Record Date or at least sixteen days prior to the applicable Maturity Date, as the case may be. 
  

 D-22 

 If the box under the heading “Payments of Principal and Premium, if any, and Interest” shown on the face hereof
marked “Foreign Currency” has been checked, payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest will be made in the Foreign Currency and a beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note will not have the option to elect payment in
U.S. dollars. 
 If the Foreign Currency is not available for the payment of principal and premium, if any, and interest with respect to this Global Note due
to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of Québec, Québec will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Global Note by making such payment in U.S. dollars (i) on the
basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the date of the payment, or (ii) if the Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate, or (iii) as the case may be, as
otherwise specified in “Other Provisions” on the face hereof. 
 The Fiscal Agent will, subject to applicable laws and regulations, make all
payments in the Foreign Currency with respect to this Global Note by wire transfers to the appropriate bank accounts of which DTC or any other depositary through which this Global Note is held, as the case may be, notifies the Fiscal Agent which
shall be, where such payment is made as a result of an election by a beneficial owner of an interest in this Global Note as provided above, the accounts designated as provided above. 
 In order for any Holder of this Global Note entitled to receive payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest in the Foreign Currency to receive such payments by wire transfer, such Holder shall designate an
appropriate bank account. Such designation shall be made by filing the appropriate information with the Fiscal Agent at its corporate trust office in The City of New York on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least sixteen days prior to
the applicable Maturity Date, as the case may be. The Fiscal Agent will, subject to applicable laws and regulations and until it receives notice to the contrary, make such payment and all succeeding payments to such Holder by wire transfer to the
designated account. If a payment cannot be made by wire transfer because the required information has not been received by the Fiscal Agent on or before the requisite date, a notice will be mailed to the Holder of this Global Note at its registered
address requesting such information and until such information has been received, no additional interest will accrue. 
  

 D-23 

 Québec will pay all administrative costs imposed by banks in connection with making payments by wire transfer, but
any tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon such payments will be borne by the Holder of this Global Note. 
 The “Market Exchange
Rate” with respect to any Foreign Currency shall be the noon dollar buying rate in The City of New York for cable transfers for such Foreign Currency as certified for customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. 
 Redemption at the Option of Québec 
 If one or more Redemption
Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on the face hereof, this Global Note is subject to redemption upon not less than thirty days’ and not more than sixty days’ prior notice by mail, on any such date (or during any such range) as a
whole, or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination specified on the face hereof (provided that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination),
at the election of Québec, at the Redemption Price (as defined below) together with accrued interest to the Redemption Date; but any interest payment due on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Redemption Date will be payable
to the Holder hereof (or one or more predecessor Notes) of record at the close of business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest Payment Date. If applicable, the “Redemption Price” for any such redemption shall be equal to the
Initial Redemption Percentage specified on the face hereof (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction specified on the face hereof, if applicable) multiplied by the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Global Note is
an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be redeemed; provided, however, that in no event shall the Redemption Price be less than 100% of the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Global Note
is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be redeemed. 
 Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid,
this Global Note (or the portion of the Principal Amount hereof so to be redeemed) shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price herein specified, and from and after such date (unless Québec shall default in
the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) shall cease to bear interest. 
  

 D-24 

 In the case of any partial redemption at the election of Québec of Notes, the Notes of a particular tenor to be
redeemed shall be selected by the Fiscal Agent not more than sixty days prior to the Redemption Date by such method as the Fiscal Agent shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions of the
Principal Amount of Notes. In the event of any redemption of this Global Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof, provided
that such unredeemed portion shall be an authorized denomination for Notes of this series. 
 Repayment at the Option of Holder 
 If one or more Optional Repayment Dates (or ranges of such dates) is specified on the face hereof, this Global Note is subject to repayment on any such date (or during
any such range) or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the first Business Day following such date, as a whole or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination specified on the face hereof (provided
that any remaining Principal Amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000 or such other minimum denomination), at the election of the Holder hereof at the Repayment Price (as defined below) together with accrued interest thereon to the Optional
Repayment Date, but any interest payment due on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the Optional Repayment Date will be payable to the Holder hereof of record at the close of business on the Record Date pertaining to such Interest
Payment Date. Such election shall be effected by the Holder hereof delivering to Québec at the corporate trust office of the Fiscal Agent in The City of New York not less than thirty nor more than sixty days prior to the date on which this
Global Note is to be repaid, or during such other notice period specified on the face hereof, a notice requesting such repayment in the form prescribed below and specifying the date upon which this Global Note is to be repaid. Any notice given by a
Holder pursuant to this paragraph shall consist of this Global Note with the form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” set forth of the end of this Global Note duly completed. Exercise of the repayment option by the Holder hereof will be
irrevocable. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the “Repayment Price” for any such repayment shall be 100% of the portion of the Principal Amount hereof (or, if this Global Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, the portion
of the Amortized Face Amount hereof) to be repaid. 
  

 D-25 

 Status of the Notes 
 The
Notes shall rank equally among themselves and with the other debt securities of Québec outstanding on the date of this Global Note or issued hereafter. 
 Form, Denomination and Registration 
 The Notes are fully registered, without coupons, in authorized denominations of U.S.$1,000 and any integral
multiple of U.S.$1,000 in excess thereof, or, in the case of Notes denominated in a Foreign Currency, the equivalent in the Foreign Currency (rounded to an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Foreign Currency) or such larger amount of such
Foreign Currency as may be specified on the face hereof. The Fiscal Agent has been appointed registrar for the Notes, and Québec will cause the Fiscal Agent to maintain at its corporate trust office in The City of New York a Note Register for
the registration and transfer of Notes. 
 This Note is a Global Note registered in the name of a nominee of the Depositary. This Global Note is exchangeable
for certificated Notes in definitive form (“Certificated Notes”) registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited circumstances hereinafter described. Unless and until it is exchanged in whole
or in part for Certificated Notes, this Global Note may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary, by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary, or by the
Depositary or the nominee of the Depositary to a successor of the Depositary or a nominee of such successor. 
 The Notes represented by this Global Note are
exchangeable for Certificated Notes of like tenor as such Notes in denominations of U.S.$1,000 and integral multiples thereof only (i) if the Depositary notifies Québec that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for this
Global Note or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and a successor Depositary is not appointed by Québec within 90 days after receiving the notice or
becoming aware that the Depositary is no longer registered as the Depositary, or (ii) if Québec executes and delivers to the Fiscal Agent a written notice that all Global Notes representing Notes shall be exchangeable, or (iii) upon
request to the Fiscal Agent by the 

  

 D-26 

 
Depositary, acting on direct or indirect instructions of a Holder or any beneficial owner of interests in this Global Note, after an event of default
entitling the Holders to accelerate the Stated Maturity of the Notes represented by this Global Note has occurred and is continuing, provided that if the Depositary is unwilling or does not promptly make such request to the Fiscal Agent, then
any beneficial owner of interests in this Global Note shall be entitled to make such request with respect to such interest. If the exchange is made pursuant to clause (iii), then the Notes represented by this Global Note may be exchangeable for
Certificated Notes in whole or in part. If the Notes represented by this Global Note become exchangeable as provided above, Québec shall issue or cause to be issued Certificated Notes upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for,
Notes represented by this Global Note. Such Certificated Notes shall be registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct. All such exchanges will be free of charge, but Québec may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge in connection therewith. The date of registration of any Certificated Note delivered upon any exchange or transfer of a Global Note shall be such that no gain or loss of interest results from such exchange or transfer. The
Fiscal Agent shall not be required to make any transfers, registrations or exchanges of Global Notes for a period of fifteen days preceding any Interest Payment Date. 
 In respect of any such issuance of Certificated Notes, (i) Québec shall promptly provide the Fiscal Agent with a sufficient number of Certificated Notes in blank form to proceed with such issuance,
(ii) the Depositary shall cause this Global Note to be delivered to the Fiscal Agent and provide the Fiscal Agent with the necessary registration information for such Certificated Notes, (iii) the Fiscal Agent shall authenticate and
deliver such Certificated Notes in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Global Note to be exchanged for such Certificated Notes, (iv) the Fiscal Agent shall cancel this Global Note and, in the case of a partial
exchange, issue and deliver to or to the order of the Depositary a new Global Note in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unexchanged portion of this Global Note and (v) the Fiscal Agent shall reduce accordingly the holdings of the
Holder on the Register. The Fiscal Agent shall have at least 30 days from the date of its receipt of Certificated Notes and registration information to authenticate and deliver such Certificated Notes. Such Certificated Notes shall be registered in
such names and in such denominations as DTC, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants, shall direct and shall be delivered as directed by the persons in whose names such Certificated Notes are to be registered. All Notes
represented by Certificated Notes issued upon any such issuance in exchange for the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be valid obligations of Québec and shall be entitled to the same benefits under the Fiscal Agency Agreement as the
Global Notes. 
  

 D-27 

 Québec expressly acknowledges that if Certificated Notes are not promptly issued to a beneficial owner of an
interest in a Global Note as contemplated herein, then such beneficial owner shall be entitled to pursue any remedy under the Fiscal Agency Agreement, the Note or applicable law with respect to the portion of this Global Note that represents such
beneficial owner’s interest as if such Certificated Notes had been issued. 
 In the event of any redemption of Notes represented by this Global Note at
the election of Québec, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of or exchange Global Notes of like tenor during a period beginning at the opening of business fifteen days before any selection of such
Notes to be redeemed and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange this Global Note, or, except in the case of a partial redemption, the unredeemed
portion of this Global Note. Following the exercise of any repayment option by the Holder hereof, the Fiscal Agent shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange that portion of this Global Note with respect to which such
option has been exercised. 
 Subject to the foregoing, this Global Note is not exchangeable, except for a Global Note or Global Notes in an equal aggregate
Principal Amount to be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee. 
 Events of Default 
 In the event that (i) Québec shall default in the payment of principal of or premium or interest on this Global Note as and when the same shall be due and
payable, and such default shall continue for a period of 45 days, or (ii) default shall be made in the due performance or observance by Québec of any covenant or agreement contained in the Global Notes, other than the payment of
principal, premium or interest, or in the Fiscal Agency Agreement, and such default shall continue for a period of 60 days, or (iii) Québec shall default in the payment of any principal of or premium or interest on any indebtedness
(direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money, other than the Global Notes, as and when the same shall be due and payable, and such default shall continue for a period of 45 days, provided that the foregoing shall not be taken into account
so long as the aggregate principal amount of all such 

  

 D-28 

 
indebtedness (direct or under a guarantee) for borrowed money with respect to which the foregoing has occurred does not exceed U.S.$50,000,000 (or its
equivalent in other currencies), then at any time thereafter and during the continuance of such default the Holder of this Global Note (or its proxy) may deliver or cause to be delivered to Québec (with a copy to the Fiscal Agent) a written
notice that such Holder elects to declare the principal of the Note or Notes held by him (the serial number or numbers of the Global Note representing such Notes and the Principal Amount of the Notes owned by him and the subject of such declaration
being set forth in such notice) to be due and payable and, in the cases falling within either (i) or (iii) above, on the 15th day after delivery of such notice, or, in the cases falling within (ii) above, on the 30th day after
delivery of such notice, the principal of the Note or Notes referred to in such notice plus any premium and accrued interest thereon shall become due and payable at the places for payment herein specified, unless prior to that time all such defaults
theretofore existing shall have been cured. 
 Modification 
 The
Fiscal Agency Agreement contains provisions with respect to modifying or amending said Agreement either without notice to, or the consent of, the holder of any Note or with the approval of the holders of Notes. 
 Future Holders 
 Any action by the Holder of this Global Note shall bind all
future Holders of this Global Note, and of any Note issued in exchange or substitution herefor or in place hereof, in respect of anything done or permitted by Québec or by the Fiscal Agent in pursuance of such action. 
 Notices 
 All notices to the Holders of Global Notes will be given in writing
mailed, first-class postage prepaid, to each Holder at each Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such mailing. 
 However, when Certificated Notes are outstanding, all notices to the Holders of Notes will be published in English in New York, New York in The Wall Street
Journal and in Toronto, Ontario in The Globe & Mail and in French in Montréal, Québec in La Presse. If at any time publication in any such newspaper is not practicable, notices will be valid if published in
an English language newspaper, or, 

  

 D-29 

 
if in Québec, a French language newspaper, with general circulation in the respective market regions as Québec, with the approval of the Fiscal
Agent, shall determine. Any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on the date of such publication or, if published more than once or on different dates, on the first date on which publication is made. 
 Office or Agency of Québec 
 So long as this Global Note shall be
outstanding, Québec will maintain an office or agency for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note as herein provided in The City of New York, and an office or agency in The City of New York for
the registration, transfer and exchange as aforesaid of the Notes. Québec may designate other agencies for the payment of said principal and premium, if any, and interest at such place or places (subject to applicable laws and regulations) as
Québec may decide. So long as there shall be a Fiscal Agent, Québec shall keep the Fiscal Agent advised of the names and locations of such agencies, if any are so designated. 
 No recourse under or upon any covenant contained in this Global Note or because of the creation of the indebtedness represented hereby shall be had against any official
or other representative, past, present or future, as such, of Québec whether by virtue of any statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being expressly agreed and understood that this Global
Note is solely the obligation of Québec and that no personal liability whatever shall attach to or be incurred by any such officials or other representatives, as such, because of the execution of this Global Note. 
 Prescription 
 Under current Québec law, Québec’s
obligation to make any payment on the Notes shall be extinguished three years after the date such payment is due unless the right to such payment is judicially exercised prior to the expiration of such three-year period. 
 Governing Law 
 The Notes shall be construed in accordance and governed by
the laws of Québec and the laws of Canada applicable therein. 
 Québec irrevocably consents to the fullest extent permitted by law to the
giving of any relief (including, without limitation, the making, enforcement or execution against any property of any order or judgment) made or given in connection with any proceedings arising out of or in connection with the Fiscal Agency
Agreement and the Notes.

meanings assigned to them in the Agreement. 
 WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of that certain Purchase Agreement, dated

of Common Stock (the “Stock Consideration”); 
 WHEREAS, it is a condition to the obligations of the Stockholder and
ContiBeef to complete the transaction contemplated by the Purchase Agreement that the Agreement be amended as set forth in this Amendment to include the shares of Common Stock to be delivered as the Stock Consideration pursuant to the Purchase

 WHEREAS, the Company wishes to grant certain additional registration
rights with respect to the Registrable Securities, as provided further herein, 
 WHEREAS, the Stockholder currently owns not less

accordance with Section 8(d) of the Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Stockholder desire to amend the Agreement as

 NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 1. Section 1 of the Agreement is hereby amended to: 
 (a) amend and restate the definition of the term “Registrable Securities” in its entirety to read as follows:

 2. The Agreement is hereby amended to include new Sections 3A
and 3B, which shall follow Section 3 and precede Section 4, and shall read in their entirety as follows:  
 “3A.
Demand Registration. 
 (a) Request for Demand Registration. At any time, one or more Designated Holders (the “Initiating
Holders”), may make a written request to the Company to register, and the Company shall register, under the Securities Act (other than pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 or S-8 or any successor thereto) (a “Demand
Registration”), the number of Registrable Securities stated in such request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect a Demand Registration if the Initiating Holders propose to sell their Registrable Securities at an
aggregate price (calculated based upon the Market Price of the Registrable Securities on the date of filing of the Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities) to the public of less than $15,000,000. If the Board of Directors,
in its good faith judgment, determines that any registration of Registrable Securities should not be made or continued because it would materially interfere with any material financing, acquisition, corporate reorganization or merger or other
material transaction involving the Company (a “Valid Business Reason”), the Company may (x) postpone filing a Registration Statement relating to a Demand Registration until such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event
for more than sixty (60) days, and (y) in case a Registration Statement has been filed relating to a Demand Registration, if the Valid Business Reason has not resulted from actions taken by the Company, the Company, upon the approval of a
majority of the Board of Directors, may cause such Registration Statement to be withdrawn and its effectiveness terminated or may postpone amending or supplementing such Registration Statement. The Company shall give written notice of its
determination to postpone or withdraw a Registration Statement and of the fact that the Valid Business Reason for such postponement or withdrawal no longer exists, in each case, promptly after the occurrence thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the Company may not postpone or withdraw a filing under this Section 3A(a) more than once in any twelve (12) month period. Each request for a Demand Registration shall state the amount of the Registrable
Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method of disposition thereof. 
 (b) Effective Demand Registration. The Company
shall use its reasonable best efforts to (x) file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating 

  

 3 

 
to a Demand Registration made pursuant to Section 3A(a) as soon as reasonably practical after it receives a request therefore, but in any event not
later than forty-five (45) days after it receives a request therefor, and (y) cause such Registration Statement to become and remain effective as soon as practicable after it receives a request under Section 3A(a) hereof. A
registration shall not constitute a Demand Registration until it has become effective and remains continuously effective for the lesser of (i) the period during which all Registrable Securities registered in the Demand Registration are sold and
(ii) 120 days. 
 (c) Expenses. The Company shall pay all Registration Expenses in connection with a Demand Registration,
whether or not such Demand Registration becomes effective. 
 (d) Underwriting Procedures. If the Initiating Holders so elect, the
Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Demand Registration to be in the form of a firm commitment underwritten offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such offering shall be the Approved Underwriter
selected in accordance with Section 3A(e). The Company shall not include in any such underwritten offering any securities unless the holders thereof accept the terms of the underwritten offering as agreed upon between the Company, the Approved
Underwriter and the Initiating Holders, and then only in such quantity as such underwriter believes will not jeopardize the success of such offering by the Initiating Holders. If the Approved Underwriter advises the Company that the aggregate amount
of such Registrable Securities requested to be included in such offering is sufficiently large to have a material adverse effect on the success of such offering, then the Company shall include in such registration only the aggregate amount of
securities that the Approved Underwriter believes may be sold without any such material adverse effect and shall reduce the amount of securities to be included in such registration, first as to the Company and shareholders of the Company, if
any, other than Designated Holders, entitled to request to participate in such registration pursuant to contractual agreements with the Company, second as to the Designated Holders (other than the Initiating Holders) and who requested to
participate in such registration pursuant to Section 3(a) hereof, if any, and third as to the Initiating Holders. 
 (e)
Selection of Underwriters. If any Demand Registration or S-3 Registration, as the case may be, of Registrable Securities is in the form of an underwritten offering, the Company shall select and obtain an investment banking firm of national
reputation to act as the managing underwriter of the offering (the “Approved Underwriter”); provided, however, that the Approved Underwriter shall, in any case, also be approved by the Initiating Holders or S-3 Initiating
Holder, as the case may be, acting reasonably. 
 3B Form S-3 Registration. 
 (a) Request for a Form S-3 Registration. If the Company shall receive from the Stockholder (the “S-3 Initiating Holder”), a written
request that the Company register, under the Securities Act on Form S-3 (or any successor form then in 

  

 4 

 
effect) (an “S-3 Registration”), all or a portion of the Registrable Securities owned by such S-3 Initiating Holder, the Company shall give written
notice of such request to all of the Designated Holders (other than S-3 Initiating Holder) at least ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Form S-3, and such notice shall describe the proposed registration and offer such
Designated Holders the opportunity to register the number of Registrable Securities as each such Designated Holder may request in writing to the Company, given within ten (10) days after their receipt from the Company of the written notice of
such registration. If requested by the S-3 Initiating Holder such S-3 Registration shall be for an offering on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. With respect to each S-3 Registration, the Company shall, subject to
Section 3B(b), (i) include in such offering the Registrable Securities of the S-3 Initiating Holder and (ii) use its reasonable best efforts to (x) file with the Commission a Registration Statement relating to such S-3
Registration as soon as reasonably practical after it receives a request therefore, but in any event not later than thirty (30) days after it receives a request therefor, (y) cause such registration pursuant to this Section 3B(a) to
become and remain effective as soon as practicable after it receives a request under Section 3B(a) hereof, and (z) include in such offering the Registrable Securities of the Designated Holders (other than S-3 Initiating Holder) who have
requested in writing to participate in such registration on the same terms and conditions as the Registrable Securities of the S-3 Initiating Holder included therein. 
 (b) Form S-3 Underwriting Procedures. If the S-3 Initiating Holder so elects, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such S-3 Registration pursuant to this Section 3B to be in the form
of a firm commitment underwritten offering and the managing underwriter or underwriters selected for such offering shall be the Approved Underwriter selected in accordance with Section 3A(e). In connection with any S-3 Registration under
Section 3B(a) involving an underwritten offering, the Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities in such underwritten offering unless the Designated Holders thereof accept the terms of the underwritten offering as
agreed upon between the Company, the Approved Underwriter and the S-3 Initiating Holder, and then only in such quantity as such underwriter believes will not jeopardize the success of such offering by the S-3 Initiating Holder. In addition, the
Company shall not include in any such underwritten offering any securities other than Registrable Securities unless the holders thereof accept the terms of the underwritten offering as agreed upon between the Company, the Approved Underwriter and
the S-3 Initiating Holder, and then only in such quantity as such underwriter believes will not jeopardize the success of such offering by the S-3 Initiating Holder. If the Approved Underwriter believes that the registration of all or part of the
Registrable Securities which the S-3 Initiating Holder and the other Designated Holders have requested to be included would materially adversely affect the success of such public offering, then the Company shall be required to include in the
underwritten offering, to the extent of the amount that the Approved Underwriter believes may be sold without causing such adverse effect, first, all of the Registrable Securities to be offered for the account of the S-3 Initiating Holder;
second, the Registrable Securities to be offered for the account of the other Designated Holders who requested inclusion of their Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 3B(a), pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities
owned by such Designated Holders; and third, any other securities requested to be included in such offering. 
  

 5 

 (c) Limitations on Form S-3 Registrations. If the Board of Directors has a Valid Business Reason,
the Company may (x) postpone filing a Registration Statement relating to a S-3 Registration until such Valid Business Reason no longer exists, but in no event for more than ninety (90) days, and (y) in case a Registration Statement
has been filed relating to a S-3 Registration, if the Valid Business Reason has not resulted from actions taken by the Company, the Company, upon the approval of a majority of the Board of Directors, may cause such Registration Statement to be
withdrawn and its effectiveness terminated or may postpone amending or supplementing such Registration Statement. The Company shall give written notice of its determination to postpone or withdraw a Registration Statement and of the fact that the
Valid Business Reason for such postponement or withdrawal no longer exists, in each case, promptly after the occurrence thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may not postpone or withdraw a filing due to a
Valid Business Reason more than once in any twelve (12) month period. In addition, the Company shall not be required to effect any registration pursuant to Section 3B(a), (i) within ninety (90) days after the effective date of
any other Registration Statement of the Company, (ii) if within the twelve (12) month period preceding the date of such request, the Company has effected two (2) registrations on Form S-3 pursuant to Section 3B(a) or
(iii) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering by the S-3 Initiating Holder.” 
 (d) Expenses. The Company shall bear
all Registration Expenses in connection with any S-3 Registration pursuant to this Section 3B, whether or not such S-3 Registration become effective. 
 3. Section 5(a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting “Section 3A or Section 3B,” after the comma following the reference to “Section 3” where it appears in the
introductory paragraph of such Section. 
 4. Section 5(a)(xvi) of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting “Section 3A
or Section 3B, as the case may be,” after the comma following the reference to “Section 3” where it appears in such Section. 
 5. Section 6(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended by inserting “Section 3A or Section 3B,” after the comma following the reference to “Section 3” where it appears in such Section. 
 6. Section 8(f) of the Agreement is hereby amended by deleting in its entirety the second sentence thereof and inserting the following in
place thereof: “The registration rights of the Designated Holders contain in Section 3, Section 3A and Section 3B, and the other rights of each of the Designated Holders with respect thereto shall be, with respect to the
Registrable Securities, transferred to any Person who is the transferee of such Registrable Security, without the consent of the Company.”.
