In the event that any Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of such delay)
with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on an Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred to on the reverse of this Security
(the “Indenture”), be payable to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the “Regular Record Date” for such interest installment which
shall be the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date so long as all of the Securities of this series are held by a securities depository in book-entry form; provided that if any of the
Securities of this series are not held by a securities depository in book-entry form, the Regular Record Date will be the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date; and
provided further that interest payable on the Stated Maturity Date or a Redemption Date will be paid to the same Person to whom the associated principal is to be paid. Any such interest not punctually paid or duly
provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Person who is the Holder of this Security on such Regular Record Date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close
of business on a Special Record Date to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such Defaulted 

 
Interest, notice of which shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful
manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. 

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained
for that purpose in New York City, the State of New York in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that,
at the option of the Company, interest on this Security may be paid by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such address shall appear on the Security Register or by a wire transfer to an account designated by the Person
entitled thereto. The amount of interest payable on this Security will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months (and for any period
shorter than a full [semi-annual][quarterly] period, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed during such period using 30-day calendar months). 

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse of this Security, which further provisions shall
for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. (All capitalized terms used in this Security which are not defined herein, including the reverse of this Security, but which are defined in the Indenture or in the Officer’s

Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and

Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

		●	if the Ending Level is less than the Starting Level, but greater than or equal to the Threshold Level: the Face Amount; or

The “Related

(as determined by the Calculation Agent) on the overall market for futures or options contracts relating to the Index.

 

The “Relevant
Stock Exchange” for any security underlying the Index means the primary exchange or quotation system on which such security

The “Calculation
Day” shall be September 25, 2023. If such day is not a Trading Day, the Calculation Day will be postponed to the next
succeeding Trading Day. The Calculation Day is also subject to postponement due to the occurrence of a Market Disruption Event

Calculation Day will be postponed to the first succeeding Trading Day on which a Market Disruption Event has not occurred and is
not continuing; however, if such first succeeding Trading Day has not occurred as of the eighth Trading Day after the originally
scheduled Calculation Day, that eighth Trading Day shall be deemed to be the Calculation Day. If the Calculation Day has been postponed
eight Trading Days after the originally scheduled Calculation Day and a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on such
eighth Trading Day, the Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Level of the Index on such eighth Trading Day in accordance
with the formula for and method of calculating the Closing Level of the Index last in effect prior to commencement of the Market
Disruption Event, using the closing price (or, with respect to any relevant security, if a Market Disruption Event has occurred
with respect to such security, its good faith estimate of the value of such security at the Scheduled Closing Time of the Relevant
Stock Exchange for such security or, if earlier, the actual closing time of the regular trading session of such Relevant Stock
Exchange) on such date of each security included in the Index. As used herein, “closing price” means, with respect

    3

     

    

 

of this Security without the consent of the Holder of this Security and without notifying the Holder of this
Security.

 

Adjustments to the Index

 

If at any time the
method of calculating the Index or a Successor Equity Index, or the closing level thereof, is changed in a material respect, or
if the Index or a Successor Equity Index is in any other way modified so that such index does not, in the opinion of the Calculation
Agent, fairly represent the level of such index had those changes or modifications not been made, then the Calculation Agent will,
at the close of business in New York, New York, on each date that the closing level of such index is to be calculated, make such
calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a
level of an index comparable to the Index or Successor Equity Index as if those changes or modifications had not been made, and
the Calculation Agent will calculate the closing level of the Index or Successor Equity Index with reference to such index, as
so adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the Index or Successor Equity Index is modified so that the level of such
index is a fraction or a multiple of what it would have been if it had not been modified (e.g., due to a split or reverse
split in such equity index), then the Calculation Agent will adjust the Index or Successor Equity Index in order to arrive at a
level of such index as if it had not been modified (e.g., as if the split or reverse split had not occurred).

 

Discontinuance of the Index

 

If the Index Sponsor
discontinues publication of the Index, and the Index Sponsor or another entity publishes a successor or substitute equity index
that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to the Index (a “Successor Equity Index”),
then, upon the Calculation Agent’s notification of that determination to the Trustee and the Company, the Calculation Agent
will substitute the Successor Equity Index as calculated by the Index Sponsor or any other entity and calculate the Ending Level
as described above. Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Equity Index, the Company will cause notice to be
given to the Holder of this Security.

 

In the event that the
Index Sponsor discontinues publication of the Index prior to, and the discontinuance is continuing on, the Calculation Day and
the Calculation Agent determines that no Successor Equity Index is available at such time, the Calculation Agent will calculate
a substitute Closing Level for the Index in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Index last in effect
prior to the discontinuance, but using only those securities that comprised the Index immediately prior to that discontinuance.
If a Successor Equity Index is selected or the Calculation Agent calculates a level as a substitute for the Index, the Successor
Equity Index or level will be used as a substitute for the Index for all purposes, including the purpose of determining whether
a Market Disruption Event exists.

 

If on the Calculation
Day the Index Sponsor fails to calculate and announce the level of the Index, the Calculation Agent will calculate a substitute
Closing Level of the Index in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Index last in effect prior to the failure,
but using only those securities that comprised the Index immediately prior to that failure; provided that, if a Market Disruption
Event occurs or is continuing on such day, then the

 

    4

     

    

 

provisions set forth above under the definition of “Calculation Day”
shall apply in lieu of the foregoing.

Disruption Event” means any of the following events as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion:

 

		(A)	The occurrence or existence of a material suspension of or limitation imposed on trading by the
Relevant Stock Exchanges or otherwise relating to securities which then comprise 20% or more of the level of the Index or any Successor

in price exceeding limits permitted by those Relevant Stock Exchanges or otherwise.

 

		(B)	The occurrence or existence of a material suspension of or limitation imposed on trading by any
Related Futures or Options Exchange or otherwise in futures or options contracts relating to the Index or any Successor Equity

day, whether by reason of movements in price exceeding limits permitted by the Related Futures or Options Exchange or otherwise.

 

		(C)	The occurrence or existence of any event, other than an early closure, that materially disrupts
or impairs the ability of market participants in general to effect transactions in, or obtain market values for, securities that
then comprise 20% or more of the level of the Index or any Successor Equity Index on their Relevant Stock Exchanges at any time
during the one-hour period that ends at the Close of Trading on that day.

 

		(D)	The occurrence or existence of any event, other than an early closure, that materially disrupts
or impairs the ability of market participants in general to effect transactions in, or obtain market values for, futures or options
contracts relating to the Index or any Successor Equity Index on any Related Futures or Options Exchange at any time during the
one-hour period that ends at the Close of Trading on that day.

 

		(E)	The closure on any Exchange Business Day of the Relevant Stock Exchanges on which securities that
then comprise 20% or more of the level of the Index or any Successor Equity Index are traded or any Related Futures or Options
Exchange prior to its Scheduled Closing Time unless the earlier closing time is announced by the Relevant Stock Exchange or Related
Futures or Options Exchange, as applicable, at least one hour prior to the earlier of (1) the actual closing time for the
regular trading session on such Relevant Stock Exchange or Related Futures or Options Exchange, as applicable, and (2) the
submission deadline for orders to be entered into the Relevant Stock Exchange or Related Futures or Options 

 

    5

system for execution at such actual closing time on that day.

 

		(F)	The Relevant Stock Exchange for any security underlying the Index or Successor Equity Index or
any Related Futures or Options Exchange fails to open for trading during its regular trading session.

 

For purposes of determining
whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred:

 

		(1)	the relevant percentage contribution of a security to the level of the Index or any Successor Equity

		(2)	the “Close of Trading” on any Trading Day for the Index or any Successor Equity

Equity Index on such Trading Day; provided that, if the actual closing time of the regular trading session of any such Relevant
Stock Exchange is earlier than its Scheduled Closing Time on such Trading Day, then (x) for purposes of clauses (A) and (C) of
the definition of “Market Disruption Event” above, with respect to any security underlying the Index or Successor Equity
Index for which such Relevant Stock Exchange is its Relevant Stock Exchange, the “Close of Trading” means such actual
closing time and (y) for purposes of clauses (B) and (D) of the definition of “Market Disruption Event” above, with
respect to any futures or options contract relating to the Index or Successor Equity Index, the “close of trading”
means the latest actual closing time of the regular trading session of any of the Relevant Stock Exchanges, but in no event later
than the Scheduled Closing Time of the Relevant Stock Exchanges;

 

		(3)	the “Scheduled Closing Time” of any Relevant Stock Exchange or Related Futures
or Options Exchange on any Trading Day for the Index or any Successor Equity Index means the scheduled weekday closing time of
such Relevant Stock Exchange or Related Futures or Options Exchange on such Trading Day, without regard to after hours or any other
trading outside the regular trading session hours; and

 

		(4)	an “Exchange Business Day” means any Trading Day for the Index or any Successor
Equity Index on which each Relevant Stock Exchange for the securities underlying the Index or any Successor Equity Index and each
Related Futures or Options Exchange are open for trading during their respective regular trading sessions, notwithstanding any
such Relevant Stock Exchange or Related Futures or Options Exchange closing prior to its Scheduled Closing Time.

Calculation Agent

is discontinued, select a Successor Equity Index or, if no Successor Equity Index is available, determine the Closing Level of
the Index under the circumstances described in this Security, and (iii) determine whether a Market Disruption Event or non-Trading
Day has occurred.

 

The Company covenants
that, so long as this Security is Outstanding, there shall at all times be a Calculation Agent (which shall be a broker-dealer,

Tax Considerations

as defined in the Indenture, with respect to this Security shall occur and be continuing, the Maturity Payment Amount (calculated
as set forth in the next sentence) of this Security may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided
in the Indenture. The amount payable to the Holder hereof upon any acceleration permitted under the Indenture will be equal
to the Maturity Payment Amount hereof calculated as provided herein as though the date of acceleration was the Calculation Day.

made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

 

Unless the certificate

MEDIUM-TERM NOTE, SERIES S

 

Due Nine Months or More From Date of

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to
the S&P 500® Index

due October 2, 2023

 

This Security is one
of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued
in one or more series under an indenture dated as of February 21, 2017, as amended or supplemented from time to time (herein
called the “Indenture”), between the Company and Citibank, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,”
which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company,
the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered. This Security is one of the series of the Securities designated as Medium-Term Notes, Series S, of the Company. The
amount payable on the Securities of this series may be determined by reference to the performance of one or more equity-, commodity-
or currency-based indices, exchange traded funds, securities, commodities, currencies, statistical measures of economic or financial
performance, or a basket comprised of two or more of the foregoing, or any other market measure or may bear interest at a fixed
rate or a floating rate. The Securities of this series may mature at different times, be redeemable at different times or not at
all, be repayable at the option of the Holder at different times or not at all and be denominated in different currencies.

 

The Securities are
issuable only in registered form without coupons and will be either (a) book-entry securities represented by one or more Global
Securities recorded in the book-entry system maintained by the Depositary or (b) certificated securities issued to and registered
in the names of, the beneficial owners or their nominees.

 

The Company agrees,
to the extent permitted by law, not to voluntarily claim the benefits of any laws concerning usurious rates of interest against
a Holder of this Security.

 

Modification and Waivers 

 

The Indenture permits,
with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company
and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and
the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all
series to be affected, acting together as a class. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority
in principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time Outstanding affected by certain provisions of the Indenture, acting
together as a class, on

 

    10

     

    

 

behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with those provisions
of the Indenture. Certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences may be waived under the Indenture by the Holders
of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities
of such series. Solely for the purpose of determining whether any consent, waiver, notice or other action or Act to be taken
or given by the Holders of Securities pursuant to the Indenture has been given or taken by the Holders of Outstanding Securities
in the requisite aggregate principal amount, the principal amount of this Security will be deemed to be equal to the amount set
forth on the face hereof as the “Face Amount” hereof. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security
shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is
made upon this Security.

therein and to the limitations described below, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection

to continue as Depositary for this Security or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the

with respect to the Securities represented hereby has occurred and is continuing. If this Security is exchangeable pursuant to

Stated Maturity Date and other terms and of authorized denominations aggregating a like amount.
