(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, during the Lockout Period, Owner shall be prohibited from selling, disposing, conveying or otherwise transferring all or any portion of the Eastside Convention Center Land or permitting the sale, disposition, conveyance or other transfer of any direct or indirect membership, partnership or other equity interest in Owner, including, without limitation, pursuant to a lease of the Eastside Convention Center Land and/or the Eastside Convention Center (other than the granting of any Use Rights) (collectively, “Transfers”), except such prohibition shall not apply to (i) Transfers to Affiliates of Owner, (ii) Transfers to a Person which is not an Affiliate of Owner that acquires (or whose Affiliate acquires) HLV Tenant’s interest in the HLV Property, including, without limitation, any direct or indirect membership, partnership or other equity interest in HLV Tenant so long as, during the Lockout Period, the owner of the Eastside Convention Center Property and the tenant with respect to the HLV Property under the Las Vegas Lease shall be the same Person or Affiliates of each other, or (iii) Transfers (including pursuant to a deed of trust) to VICI or any of its Affiliates; provided, however, the foregoing does not prohibit Owner from granting a deed of trust on any portion of the Eastside Convention Center Property as security for any indebtedness obtained (x) in a bona fide third-party financing that is also secured by a deed of trust on HLV Tenant’s interest in the HLV Property in accordance with the terms of the Las Vegas Lease (provided that a memorandum of this Agreement is recorded in the Clark County real estate records as contemplated in Section 7(m) prior to the execution of each such deed of trust) or (y) from VICI or any Affiliate of VICI.
3.Put Right in Favor of Owner.
(a)    Put Right.  Provided that (i) the Put/Call Convention Center Conditions have been satisfied, (ii) the Eastside Convention Center shall have been operating and is capable of fully operating at the time the Put Right is exercised, and there shall be Financial Statements for no less than four (4) consecutive Fiscal Quarters, (iii) the Las Vegas Lease shall be in full force and effect, 

13

no Tenant Event of Default (as defined in the Las Vegas Lease) shall exist, and no event or circumstance, which with the passage of time would result in a Tenant Event of Default (a “Tenant Default”), shall exist, (iv) neither Owner nor any Affiliate of Owner shall then be in material default hereunder, (v) there is no Material Adverse Effect, and (vi) there shall exist no Event of Default (as defined in the Mortgage Loan Agreement), then at any time during the Owner Election Period, Owner shall have the right to exercise the Put Right in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 3 (all of the foregoing, collectively, the “Put Exercise Conditions”).  If any or all of the Put Exercise Conditions are not satisfied, then Owner shall not be entitled to exercise the Put Right.
(b)    Requirements of Put Right Property Package.  In order to duly and timely exercise the Put Right, subject to satisfaction of the Put Exercise Conditions, Owner shall deliver to VICI a notice (the “Put Right Election Notice”) of Owner’s election to exercise the Put Right, which shall include a package of information (the “Put Right Property Package”), which shall set forth all material information with respect to the Eastside Convention Center Property and the Put Right including, without limitation, the following:
		
	(i)
	reasonable evidence that the Put Exercise Conditions have been satisfied;

		
	(ii)
	the proposed Sale Agreement, in the condition required by this Agreement, which shall include the Put-Call Purchase Price and Closing Date;

		
	(iii)
	the proposed Las Vegas Lease Amendment, in the condition required by this Agreement;

		
	(iv)
	delivery of Financial Statements for the most recently ended four (4) consecutive Fiscal Quarter period for which Financial Statements are available as of the date of Owner’s exercise of the Put Right; and

		
	(v)
	the proposed Put-Call Purchase Price and Las Vegas Lease Amendment Rent; and

		
	(vi)
	due diligence materials of a type that would customarily be provided to a purchaser of properties such as the Eastside Convention Center Property and produced by reputable third-party companies reasonably acceptable to VICI, including in any event a recent title report, survey, environmental reports, current tax status and any assessments owed, and information regarding any known litigation or judgment (collectively, “Diligence Materials”).

Promptly upon VICI’s reasonable request therefor, Owner shall provide to VICI additional information reasonably related to the Put Right Property Package, to the extent such information is reasonably available to Owner.  Further, following delivery of the Put Right Election Notice, VICI and its consultants and representatives shall have access to the Eastside Convention Center 

14

Property pursuant to, and VICI, and its consultants and representatives, shall comply with, the Access Provisions.
(c)    Put Right Deadline.  If Owner does not deliver a Put Right Election Notice to VICI in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b) prior to the expiration of the Owner Election Period, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE, the Put Right shall automatically terminate and be deemed null and void.
(d)    Dispute Regarding Put Right Property Package; Material Adverse Effect.  If a Put Right Election Notice and Put Right Property Package are timely delivered by Owner to VICI but VICI either (1) has comments or revisions to the draft Las Vegas Lease Amendment or Sale Agreement that are required to cause same to comply with the provisions of this Agreement, (2) believes that a condition exists (evidenced through the Diligence Materials or otherwise) that has a Material Adverse Effect, or (3) believes that any or all of the Put Exercise Conditions have not been satisfied, then VICI shall notify Owner thereof within twenty (20) days of VICI’s receipt of the Put Right Property Package (or, if later, such evidence of an alleged Material Adverse Effect, Tenant Event of Default or Tenant Default).  In such event, Owner and VICI shall negotiate in good faith up to a period of thirty (30) days in an effort to reconcile the applicable issue(s).  If Owner and VICI are unable to resolve the subject dispute, then Owner may withdraw the Put Right Election Notice (in which case the Put Right may not be exercised again for a period of six (6) months (but in no event after the end of the Owner Election Period)), and if Owner does not withdraw the Put Right Election Notice, the Parties agree that such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof.
(e)    Finalization of Put Right Documents.  If a Put Right Election Notice and Put Right Property Package are timely delivered, and (if applicable) any disputes under Section 3(d) above have been resolved, Owner and VICI shall, as soon as reasonably practicable (but in all events within ten (10) days thereafter), enter into the Sale Agreement (with a Las Vegas Lease Amendment attached thereto as an exhibit, which Las Vegas Lease Amendment shall be executed upon the consummation of the closing under the Sale Agreement).
(f)    Gaming Approvals.  If a Gaming Approval Failure occurs, the Put Right shall automatically terminate and be deemed null and void.  Each Party shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts in order to timely obtain the Requisite Gaming Approvals that it must obtain for the Put Right transaction, and the other Party shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts in order to assist such Party in its efforts to timely obtain such Requisite Gaming Approvals.  If there is a dispute among the Parties as to whether good faith, commercially reasonable efforts were used throughout the Regulatory Period, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof, and such matter shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof within twenty (20) days after the expiration of the Regulatory Period.  Each Party, at no material unreimbursed expense to such Party, agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other Party and use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Regulatory Approval Supporting Information that is reasonably requested by the other Party, in such Party’s efforts to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals (including, if necessary, Requisite Gaming Approvals).

15

(g)    Closing.  The closing of the Put Right transaction shall occur in accordance with the terms of the Sale Agreement.  In the event that a Put Right transaction fails to close for any reason other than Owner’s breach or default under this Agreement or under the Sale Agreement or because of a failure of one or more representations or warranties by Seller under the Sale Agreement to be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date (a “Rep Condition Failure”), or due to a Gaming Approval Failure and the Sale Agreement is terminated (any such failure to close for a reason other than such breach or default by Owner, a Rep Condition Failure or Gaming Approval Failure, a “Put Right Closing Failure”), Owner shall have the right to exercise the HLV Repurchase Right in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4 hereof.  Either VICI or Owner shall have the right, to be exercised within twenty (20) days after the date the alleged Put Right Closing Failure occurs, to submit any dispute related to the failure to close to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof in order to obtain a determination of the reason for such failure to close.  If the Sale Agreement has been executed between the Parties, from and after such execution the terms and conditions of such Sale Agreement shall govern all disputes between the Parties (other than the reason for such failure to close), rather than the arbitration procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof.
(h)    Failure to Execute Sale Agreement Due To VICI’s Breach.  Prior to entering into this transaction, Owner and VICI have discussed the fact that substantial damages will be suffered by Owner if VICI shall breach or default in its obligations under this Section 3 to execute a Sale Agreement if and when required under this Section 3 (a “VICI LD Default”); accordingly, the Parties agree that a reasonable estimate of Owner’s damages in such event is the amount of Nine Million and 00/100 Dollars ($9,000,000.00) (the “Owner Liquidated Damages Amount”).  In the event of a VICI LD Default, then, as Owner’s sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise (but for the avoidance of doubt, without limiting Owner’s rights to exercise the HLV Repurchase Right in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 4 hereof) VICI shall pay the Owner Liquidated Damages Amount to Owner as liquidated damages.  VICI’s obligation to pay the Owner Liquidated Damages Amount if and when payable hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement.  In the event of an alleged VICI LD Default, Owner shall provide notice to VICI of same, setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of such VICI LD Default (a “VICI LD Default Notice”).  VICI shall have the right, to be exercised within twenty (20) days after the date Owner gives a VICI LD Default Notice, to submit any dispute related to such alleged VICI LD Default to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof in order to obtain a determination as to whether a VICI LD Default occurred.  In the event the Arbitration Panel’s determination is that a VICI LD Default occurred, VICI shall have a period of twenty (20) days from the date of such determination to cure such default, failure of which shall result in VICI being required to pay the Owner Liquidated Damages Amount.
(i)    Termination of Agreement.  Upon closing of the Put Right transaction, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and be of no further force and effect.
4.    HLV Repurchase Right in Favor of Owner.
(a)    HLV Repurchase Right.  If and only if Owner duly exercises the Put Right in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 3, but a Put Right transaction fails to close 

16

by the outside date by which the closing could occur under the Sale Agreement (as described as the “Closing Date” in Exhibit D) due to a Put Right Closing Failure, then, during the HLV Repurchase Election Period, Owner shall have the right to exercise the HLV Repurchase Right subject to and in accordance with the further terms and provisions of this Section 4.  Under no circumstances shall Owner have the right to exercise the HLV Repurchase Right in the event Owner withdraws its Put Right pursuant to the terms and provisions of Section 3(d) (unless Owner subsequently duly exercises its Put Right again within the Owner Election Period and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 3, and thereafter a Put Right transaction again fails to close by the outside date by which the closing could occur under the Sale Agreement due to a Put Right Closing Failure and otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement).
(b)    Requirements of HLV Repurchase Right Property Package Request.  As a condition to exercising the HLV Repurchase Right, Owner shall deliver to VICI during the HLV Repurchase Election Period a notice of Owner’s intention to exercise the HLV Repurchase Right and a request for the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package from VICI (collectively, the “HLV Repurchase Right Property Package Request”).  As promptly as practicable after receipt of the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package Request, but in no event later than the date occurring thirty (30) days after VICI’s receipt of the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package Request, VICI shall provide to Owner a package of information (the “HLV Repurchase Right Property Package”), which shall include the following:
		
	(i)
	the proposed HLV Repurchase Sale Agreement, in the condition required by this Agreement, which shall include the HLV Repurchase Right Purchase Price and Closing Date;

		
	(ii)
	the computation of the proposed HLV Repurchase Right Purchase Price; and

		
	(iii)
	Diligence Materials (if and to the extent VICI has such materials in its possession and Lessee does not already have same at the time the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package Request was received).

Promptly upon Owner’s reasonable request therefor, VICI shall provide to Owner additional information reasonably related to the HLV Repurchase Right, to the extent such information is in its possession and Lessee does not already have same.
VICI and Owner agree to use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts, for a period of thirty (30) days after VICI’s receipt of the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package Request to negotiate, prepare and finalize the HLV Removal Amendment, including all exhibits and schedules thereto.  If, despite such efforts, the Parties are unable to reach agreement on the final form of the HLV Removal Amendment prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, then, upon the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, the terms and conditions of the HLV Removal Amendment that remain unresolved shall be established pursuant to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof.

17

(c)    Call Right Deadline.  If Owner does not deliver a HLV Repurchase Right Property Package Request to VICI in accordance with the provisions of Sections 4(a) and 4(b) prior to the expiration of the HLV Repurchase Election Period, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE, the HLV Repurchase Right shall automatically terminate and be deemed null and void.
(d)    Dispute Regarding HLV Repurchase Right Property Package.  If Owner, after reviewing the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package, either (1) disagrees with VICI’s computation of the HLV Repurchase Right Purchase Price or (2) has comments or revisions to the draft HLV Repurchase Sale Agreement that are required to cause same to comply with the provisions of this Agreement, Owner shall notify VICI thereof within twenty (20) days of Owner’s receipt of the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package.  In such event, Owner and VICI shall negotiate in good faith up to a period of thirty (30) days in an effort to reconcile the applicable issue(s).  If Owner and VICI are unable to resolve the subject dispute, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof.
(e)    Finalization of HLV Repurchase Right Documents.  If the HLV Repurchase Right Property Package is timely delivered, and (if applicable) any disputes under Section 4(b) or Section 4(d) above have been resolved, Owner and VICI shall, as soon as reasonably practicable (but in all events within ten (10) days thereafter), enter into the HLV Repurchase Sale Agreement (with the HLV Removal Amendment attached thereto as an exhibit, which HLV Removal Amendment shall be executed upon the consummation of the closing under the HLV Repurchase Sale Agreement).
(f)    Gaming Approvals.  If a Gaming Approval Failure occurs, the HLV Repurchase Right shall automatically terminate and be deemed null and void.  Each party shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts in order to timely obtain the Requisite Gaming Approvals that it must obtain for the HLV Repurchase Right transaction, and the other party shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts in order to assist such party in its efforts to timely obtain such Requisite Gaming Approvals.  If there is a dispute among the Parties as to whether good faith, commercially reasonable efforts were used throughout the Regulatory Period, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof, and such matter shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof within twenty (20) days after the expiration of the Regulatory Period.  Each Party, at no material unreimbursed expense to such Party, agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other Party and use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Regulatory Approval Supporting Information that is reasonably requested by the other Party, in such Party’s efforts to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals (including, if necessary, Requisite Gaming Approvals).
(g)    Closing.  The closing of the HLV Repurchase Right transaction shall occur in accordance with the terms of the HLV Repurchase Sale Agreement.  In the event that a HLV Repurchase Right transaction fails to close as aforesaid, either VICI or Owner shall have the right, to be exercised within twenty (20) days after the date the alleged failure occurs, to submit any dispute related to such failure to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof; provided, however, that, if the HLV Repurchase Sale Agreement has been executed between 

18

the Parties, from and after such execution, the terms and conditions of such HLV Repurchase Sale Agreement shall govern all disputes between the Parties.
5.    Call Right in Favor of VICI.
(a)    Call Right.  Provided that (i) clauses (1), (2) and (3) (excluding clauses (x) and (y) thereof) of the Put/Call Convention Center Conditions have been satisfied, (ii) the Las Vegas Lease shall be in full force and effect, (iii) Landlord (as defined in the Las Vegas Lease) shall not be in material uncured default under the Las Vegas Lease, and (iv) VICI is not in material default hereunder (and, for the avoidance of doubt, it shall not be deemed a material default if a VICI LD Default occurred and thereafter VICI paid the Owner Liquidated Damages Amount), then, at any time during the VICI Election Period, VICI shall have the right to exercise the Call Right in accordance with the procedures set forth in this Section 5.
(b)    Requirements of Call Right Election Notice and Call Right Property Package Request.  As a condition to exercising the Call Right, VICI shall deliver to Owner a notice of VICI’s intention to exercise the Call Right and a request for the Call Right Property Package from Owner (collectively, the “Call Right Property Package Request”).  As promptly as practicable after receipt of the Call Right Property Package Request, but in no event later than the date occurring thirty (30) days after Owner’s receipt of the Call Right Property Package Request, Owner shall provide to VICI a package of information (the “Call Right Property Package”), which shall set forth all material information with respect to the Eastside Convention Center Property and the Call Right including, without limitation, the following:
		
	(i)
	reasonable evidence that the Put/Call Convention Center Conditions have been satisfied;

		
	(ii)
	the proposed Sale Agreement, in the condition required by this Agreement, which shall include the Put-Call Purchase Price and Closing Date;

		
	(iii)
	the proposed Las Vegas Lease Amendment, in the condition required by this Agreement;

		
	(iv)
	delivery of the Financial Statements for the most recently ended four (4) consecutive Fiscal Quarter period for which Financial Statements are available as of the date of VICI’s exercise of the Call Right, as the case may be;

		
	(v)
	the proposed Put-Call Purchase Price and Las Vegas Lease Amendment Rent; and

		
	(vi)
	Diligence Materials.

Promptly upon VICI’s reasonable request therefor, Owner shall provide to VICI additional information reasonably related to the Call Right, to the extent such information is reasonably 

19

available to Owner.  Further, following delivery of the Call Right Property Package Request, VICI and its consultants and representatives shall have access to the Eastside Convention Center Property pursuant to, and VICI, and its consultants and representatives, shall comply with, the Access Provisions.
(c)    Call Right Deadline.  If VICI does not deliver a Call Right Property Package Request to Owner in accordance with Section 5(b) prior to the expiration of the VICI Election Period, TIME BEING OF THE ESSENCE, this Agreement shall automatically terminate on the expiration of such period.
(d)    Failure of Put/Call Convention Center Conditions.  If upon VICI’s delivering of the Call Right Property Package Request to Owner, the Put/Call Convention Center Conditions have not been satisfied (a “Call Right Condition Failure”), then this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the conclusion of the VICI Election Period unless following a Call Right Condition Failure, VICI again exercises its Call Right within the VICI Election Period and at the time of delivering of the Call Right Property Package Request to Owner, clause (1), (2) and (3) (excluding clauses (x) and (y) thereof) of the Put/Call Convention Center Conditions are then satisfied.
(e)    Dispute Regarding Call Right Property Package.  If VICI, after reviewing the Call Right Property Package, still wishes to exercise the Call Right but VICI has comments or revisions to the draft Las Vegas Lease Amendment and/or Sale Agreement required to cause the same to comply with the provisions of this Agreement, VICI shall notify Owner thereof within twenty (20) days of VICI’s receipt of the Call Right Property Package.  In such event, Owner and VICI shall negotiate in good faith up to a period of thirty (30) days in an effort to reconcile the applicable issue(s).  If Owner and VICI are unable to resolve the subject dispute, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event that (x) the Call Right Property Package discloses that any of the Put/Call Convention Center Conditions is not satisfied, (y) a Tenant Event of Default or Tenant Default exists, and/or (z) a condition exists or an event occurred (evidenced through the Diligence Materials or otherwise) that has a Material Adverse Effect, then, with respect to clauses (x) or (y), Owner may terminate this Agreement to be effective at the conclusion of the VICI Election Period, subject to the provisions of Section 5(d), and if Owner does not so terminate this Agreement, and with respect to clause (z), VICI shall have the right to retract its exercise of the Call Right by providing notice to Owner thereof within twenty (20) days of VICI’s receipt of the Call Right Property Package (or, if later, in the case of any item described in either clauses (y) or (z) above, twenty (20) days following the occurrence of such event).  In such case, this Agreement shall automatically terminate at the conclusion of the VICI Election Period, subject to the provisions of Section 5(d).
(f)    Finalization of Call Right Documents.  If the Call Right Property Package is timely delivered, and (if applicable) any disputes under Section 5(e) above have been resolved, if VICI still wishes to exercise the Call Right, Owner and VICI shall as soon as reasonably practicable (but in all events within ten (10) days thereafter) enter into the Sale Agreement (with a Las Vegas Lease Amendment attached thereto as an exhibit, which Las Vegas Lease Amendment shall be executed upon the consummation of the closing under the Sale Agreement).

20

(g)    Gaming Approvals.  If a Gaming Approval Failure occurs, then this Agreement shall automatically terminate.  Each Party shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts in order to timely obtain the Requisite Gaming Approvals that it must obtain for the Call Right Transaction, and the other Party shall use good faith, commercially reasonable efforts in order to assist such Party in its efforts to timely obtain such Requisite Gaming Approvals.  If there is a dispute among the Parties as to whether good faith, commercially reasonable efforts were used throughout the Regulatory Period, such dispute shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof, and such matter shall be submitted to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof within twenty (20) days after the expiration of the Regulatory Period.  Each Party, at no material unreimbursed expense to such Party, agrees to reasonably cooperate with the other Party and use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Regulatory Approval Supporting Information that is reasonably requested by the other Party, in such Party’s efforts to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals (including, if necessary, Requisite Gaming Approvals).
(h)    Closing.  The closing of the Call Right transaction shall occur in accordance with the terms of the Sale Agreement.  In the event that the Parties fail to execute a Sale Agreement, either VICI or Owner shall have the right, to be exercised within twenty (20) days after the date the alleged failure occurs, to submit any dispute related to such failure to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof; provided, however, that if the Sale Agreement has been executed between the Parties, from and after such execution the terms and conditions of such Sale Agreement shall govern all disputes between the Parties.
(i)    Failure to Execute Sale Agreement Due To Owner Breach.  Prior to entering into this transaction, Owner and VICI have discussed the fact that substantial damages will be suffered by VICI if Owner shall breach or default in its obligations under this Section 5 to execute a Sale Agreement when required under this Section 5 (an “Owner LD Default”); accordingly, the Parties agree that a reasonable estimate of VICI’s damages in such event is the amount of Nine Million and 00/100 Dollars ($9,000,000.00) (the “VICI Liquidated Damages Amount”).  In the event of an Owner LD Default, then, as VICI’s sole and exclusive remedy hereunder, at law, in equity or otherwise, Owner shall pay the VICI Liquidated Damages Amount to VICI as liquidated damages, and thereafter, the Parties shall have no further rights or obligations hereunder except for other obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement.  Owner’s obligation to pay the VICI Liquidated Damages Amount if and when payable hereunder shall survive the termination of this Agreement.  In the event of an alleged Owner LD Default, VICI shall provide notice to Owner of same, setting forth in reasonable detail the nature of such Owner LD Default (an “Owner LD Default Notice”).  Owner shall have the right, to be exercised within twenty (20) days after the date VICI gives an Owner LD Default Notice, to submit any dispute related to such alleged Owner LD Default to arbitration in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 6 hereof in order to obtain a determination as to whether an Owner LD Default occurred.  In the event the Arbitration Panel’s determination is that an Owner LD Default occurred, Owner shall have a period of twenty (20) days from the date of such determination to cure such default, failure of which shall result in Owner being required to pay the VICI Liquidated Damages Amount.

the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 in each year, commencing on March 15, 2021 (each an “Interest Payment Date”)
and on the Maturity Date, at the interest rate of 3.500% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided

provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

 REVERSE OF NOTE 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of AT&T of the series specified on the face hereof, issued under and
pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of May 15, 2013, between AT&T and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which indenture
and all indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the “Indenture”) reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, AT&T and the Holders
of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes will be issued in fully registered form only and in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 thereafter. This Note
is one of the series of Rule 144A Notes designated on the face hereof initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $6,732,101,000. 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of AT&T and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by AT&T and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding. The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding to waive compliance by AT&T with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or
in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 
 No reference herein to the Indenture and no
provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of AT&T, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed. 
 Registrar and Paying Agent 

AT&T shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration
of transfer or exchange (“Registrar”) and an office or agency where Notes may be presented for payment or for exchange (“Paying Agent”). AT&T has initially appointed the Trustee, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A., as its Registrar and Paying Agent. AT&T may vary or terminate the appointment of any of its paying or transfer agencies, and may appoint additional paying or transfer agencies. 

 Optional Redemption by AT&T 

The Notes may be redeemed at any time prior to March 15, 2053, as a whole or in part, at AT&T’s option, at any time and from time
to time on at least 10 days’, but not more than 40 days’, prior notice mailed (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with DTC procedures) to the registered address of each Holder of the Notes. The redemption price will be calculated
by AT&T and will be equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments (as defined below) discounted to the redemption date, on a
semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the sum of the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 35 basis points.
The Notes may be redeemed at any time on or after March 15, 2053, as a whole or in part, at AT&T’s option, at any time and from time to time on at least 10 days’, but not more than 40 days’, prior notice mailed (or otherwise
transmitted in accordance with DTC procedures) to the registered address of each Holder of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed. AT&T will calculate the redemption price. In each case,
accrued but unpaid interest will be payable to the redemption date. 
 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date
for the Notes, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity or interpolation (on a day count basis) of the interpolated Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a
percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date, as determined by AT&T or an Independent Investment Banker appointed by AT&T. 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as
having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt
securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the
Reference Treasury Dealers, appointed by AT&T. 
 “Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date,
(1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if AT&T obtains fewer than three such Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by AT&T, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to AT&T
by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date. 

  
 2 

 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of Barclays Capital Inc., BofA Securities,
Inc., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Mizuho Securities USA LLC and RBC Capital Markets, LLC and their respective affiliates and, at the option of AT&T, one other nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a primary U.S. Government
Securities dealer in the United States (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”); provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, AT&T will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer.
 
 “Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest on the Note that would be due after the related redemption date through the par call date for the Notes but for the redemption, assuming the Notes matured on the par call date (not including any portion of payments of interest
accrued as of the redemption date). If that redemption date is not an Interest Payment Date with respect to the Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on the Note will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued on the
Note to the redemption date. 
 On and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion of the Notes
called for redemption, unless AT&T defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest. On or before the redemption date, AT&T will deposit with its Paying Agent or the Trustee money sufficient to pay the redemption price of
and accrued interest on the Notes to be redeemed on that date. 
 Any redemption or notice may, at the discretion of AT&T, be subject to one or more
conditions precedent and, at the discretion of AT&T, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions precedent included at the discretion of AT&T shall be satisfied (or waived by AT&T) or the redemption
date may not occur and such notice may be rescinded if all such conditions precedent included at the discretion of AT&T shall not have been satisfied (or waived by AT&T). 

In the case of any partial redemption, selection of the Notes to be redeemed will be made in accordance with applicable procedures of DTC.

 Registration Rights 

In addition to the rights set forth under the Indenture, Holders of the Notes will enjoy all the rights and be subject to all of the

 Payment of Additional Amounts 

AT&T will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay as additional interest on this Note such additional amounts
(“Additional Amounts”) as are necessary so that the net payment by AT&T or its Paying Agent of the principal of and interest on this Note to a person that is a United States Alien, after deduction for any present or future tax,
assessment or governmental charge of the United States or a political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, imposed by withholding with respect to the payment, will not be less than the amount that would have been payable in respect of
this Note had no withholding or deduction been required. As used herein, “United States Alien” means any person who, for United States federal income tax purposes, is a foreign corporation, a
non-resident alien individual, a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust, or a foreign partnership one or more of the members of which is, for United
States federal income tax purposes, a foreign corporation, a non-resident alien individual or a non-resident alien fiduciary of a foreign estate or trust. 

The foregoing obligation to pay Additional Amounts shall not apply: 

(1) to any tax, assessment or governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely because the beneficial owner, or a

portion thereof, or that is a fiduciary or partnership, but only to the extent that the beneficial owner, a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, or a member of the partnership would not have been entitled to the payment of an

 Redemption Upon a Tax Event 

If (a) AT&T becomes or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any
regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein), or any change in, or amendments to, any official position regarding the application or interpretation of such
laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment is announced or becomes effective, on or after August 31, 2020 or (b) a taxing authority of the United States takes an action on or after August 31, 2020, whether or not with
respect to AT&T or any of its affiliates, that results in a substantial probability that AT&T will or may be required to pay such Additional Amounts, then AT&T may, at its option, redeem, as a whole, but not in part, the Notes on any
Interest Payment Date on not less than 10 nor more than 40 calendar days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, together with interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption. No redemption
pursuant to (b) above may be made unless AT&T shall have received an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that an act taken by a taxing authority of the United States results in a substantial probability that AT&T will or may be
required to pay the Additional Amounts and AT&T shall have delivered to the Trustee a certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer, stating that based on such opinion, AT&T is entitled to redeem the Notes pursuant to their terms. 

Further Issues 
 AT&T
reserves the right from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, to create and issue further notes ranking equally and ratably with the Notes in all respects, or in all respects except for the payment of interest
accruing prior to the issue date or except for the first payment of interest following the issue date of those further notes. Any further notes will have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as, and will be fungible for United States
federal income tax purposes with, the Notes. Any further notes shall be issued pursuant to a resolution of the board of directors of AT&T, a supplement to the Indenture, or under an officers’ certificate pursuant to the Indenture.
