Security Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the Depositary, and no Beneficial
Owner will receive a definitive Certificate representing such Beneficial Owner’s interest in such
Global Certificate, except as provided in Section 2.6. Unless and until definitive, fully
registered Certificates have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 2.6:

     (i) the provisions of this Section 2.4(b) shall be in full force and effect;

     (ii) the Company, the Trustee and each Paying Agent and Security Registrar shall be
entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of the Indenture (including, without
limitation, making payments of principal or interest on the Notes and receiving approvals,

of the Global Certificates and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners; provided,
however, that any Beneficial Owner may directly enforce against the Company, without the
involvement of the Depositary or any other Person, its right to receive definitive
Certificates pursuant to Section 2.6;

     (iii) subject to Section 2.4(a), to the extent that the provisions of this Section
2.4(b) conflict with any other provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of this Section

     (iv) the rights of the Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through the Depositary
and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial
Owners and the Depositary or the Depositary Participants; provided, however, that any
Beneficial Owner may directly enforce against the Company, without the involvement of the
Depositary or any other Person, its right to receive definitive Certificates pursuant to
Section 2.6.

     Transfers of securities evidenced by Global Certificates shall be made through the facilities
of the Depositary, and any cancellation of, or increase or decrease in the principal amount of, the
Notes evidenced by such Global Certificates shall be accomplished by making appropriate annotations
on the Schedule of Increases and Decreases for such Global Certificate.

     The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Beneficial Owner of a Global
Certificate, any participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy

8

CERTIFICATE AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF
THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY) MAY BE REGISTERED
EXCEPT IN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES.

UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY FOR
REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REQUESTED IN
THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF
THE DEPOSITARY (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS
REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER
USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER
HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

depositary with respect to such Notes, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint a
successor Depositary with respect to the Notes.

continue to act as Depositary with respect to the Notes and no successor Depositary
has been appointed pursuant to Section 2.5 within ninety (90) days after such
notice; or

     (2) the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under Section
17A of the Exchange Act when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act
as the Depositary and so notifies the Company, and no successor Depositary has been
appointed pursuant to Section 2.5 within ninety (90) days after such notice; or

     (3) any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; or

     (4) a Beneficial Owner provides a written request, upon sixty (60) days prior
notice to the Company and the Trustee, that such Beneficial Owner’s interest in the
Notes represented by a Global Certificate is to be exchanged for an equivalent
interest in the Notes represented by definitive Certificate,

then (x) definitive Certificates may be prepared by the Company with respect to such Notes and
delivered to the Trustee and (y) upon surrender of the Global Certificates representing the Notes
by the Depositary, accompanied by registration instructions, the Company shall cause definitive
Certificates to be delivered to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the instructions of the
Depositary. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or any Security Registrar shall be
liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions, and each may conclusively rely on, and shall
be authorized and protected in relying on, such instructions. Each definitive Certificate so
delivered shall evidence Notes of the same kind and tenor as the Global Certificate so surrendered
in respect thereof.

     SECTION 2.7 Private Placement Legend.

     (a) Subject to Section 2.7(b), each Certificate that constitutes a “restricted security”
within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act shall bear a legend (the “Private Placement

SECURITIES ACT.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, (i) Certificates executed,
authenticated and delivered upon a transfer of any interest in a Certificate bearing the Private
Placement Legend shall also bear the Private Placement Legend unless there is delivered to the
Trustee, the Security Registrar and the Company an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the Company and addressed to the Company to the effect, or other reasonable proof, that such
Private Placement Legend need not be applied to such Certificates; (ii) the Trustee, the Security
Registrar and the Company may refuse to effect any transfer of an interest

10

 

in a Certificate unless there is delivered to the Trustee, the Security Registrar and the Company an opinion of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company to the effect, or other
reasonable proof, that such transfer complies with the registration and prospectus-delivery
requirements of the Securities Act or is exempt from such requirements; and (iii) the Company may,
in its sole and absolute discretion, and subject to the receipt of any opinion(s) of counsel or
other document(s) it deems appropriate, cause the Private Placement Legend to be removed from any
Certificate (including, without limitation, a Certificate that constitutes a “restricted security”
within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act but that is eligible for resale pursuant to
Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act). The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor,
determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this
Supplemental Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any
Certificate (including any transfers between or among participants in the Depositary, members or
Beneficial Owners in any Global Certificate) other than to require delivery of such certificates
and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when
expressly required by, the terms of this Supplemental Indenture, and to examine the same to
determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

     SECTION 2.8 Interest.

     (a) Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Notes at a rate per annum equal to
the Note Interest Rate. The Note Interest Rate shall initially be equal to the Initial Note
Interest Rate and shall thereafter be subject to adjustment pursuant to  Section 3.2. The Company
shall pay interest on the Notes, payable quarterly in arrears, on March 15, June 15, September 15,
and December 15 of each year (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on, and
including, March 15, 2011. Interest that is due on a Note on any March 15, June 15, September 15,
or December 15 shall be paid to the person who is the Holder of such Note as of the close of
business on the immediately preceding March 1, June 1, September 1, or December 1, respectively
(whether or not such date is a Business Day) (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”). Interest
on a Note shall accrue on the principal amount of such Note from, and including, the most recent
date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from, and
including, the date such Note was first issued, in each case to, but excluding, the next Interest
Payment Date or the Stated Maturity date of the principal of such Note, as the case may be.
Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Section 4.01(b)
of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes.

     (b) The Notes shall not be entitled to any sinking fund payments.

     SECTION 2.9 Redemption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, the Company
shall not have the right to redeem any Notes prior to the Redemption Trigger Date. The Company
shall have the right, at the Company’s option, at any time, and from time to time, to redeem all or
any part of the Notes, on any date (the “Redemption Date”) on or after the Redemption Trigger Date
(such Redemption Date to be selected by the Company), at a price payable in cash equal to the Note
Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, if a Redemption Date
is after the Regular Record Date for a payment of interest on such Note and on or before the next
Interest Payment Date of such Note, then such payment of interest shall, notwithstanding such
redemption, be made, on such Interest Payment Date, to the

11

 

Holder of such Note as of the close of
business on such Regular Record Date. Each redemption pursuant to this  Section 2.9 shall be
subject to Article III of the Base Indenture, except that, for purposes of the Notes, Sections
3.03(a), 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 of the Base Indenture shall not apply. Notwithstanding Section 3.02
of the Base Indenture, the notice of the foregoing redemption need not set forth the Note
Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof. The Company shall notify the Trustee
of the Note Redemption Price promptly after the determination thereof and the Trustee shall have no
responsibility for any such determination.

          If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the
Securities or portions of Securities of the series to be redeemed specified in such notice shall
become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable
redemption price, and interest on such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue
on and after the date fixed for redemption, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such
redemption price with respect to any such Security or portion thereof. On presentation and
surrender of such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment
specified in the notice, said Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption
price for such series.

     SECTION 2.10 CUSIP Numbers. The Company may use one or more “CUSIP” numbers for the Notes, and, if
the Company does so, the Trustee shall, as a convenience to Holders, use the CUSIP numbers in
notices to Holders; provided, however, that no representation is hereby deemed to be made by the
Trustee as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers printed on the notice or on the
Notes; provided further, that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers
printed on the Notes, and the effectiveness of any such notice shall not be affected by any defect
in, or omission of, such CUSIP numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any
change in the CUSIP numbers.

     SECTION 2.11 Security Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company initially appoints the Trustee as
the Security Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes.

     SECTION 2.12 Ranking. The indebtedness of the Company arising under or in connection with this Supplemental Indenture and
every outstanding Note issued under this Supplemental Indenture from time to time constitutes and
will constitute a senior unsecured obligation of the Company, ranking equally with other existing
and future senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company and ranking senior to any existing or
future subordinated indebtedness of the Company.

     SECTION 2.13 Form of Notes. The Notes and the Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication to be
endorsed thereon are to be substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

ARTICLE III

Remarketing

     SECTION 3.1 Obligation to Conduct Remarketing and Related Requirements.

     (a) Except as provided in the immediately following sentence, there shall, in accordance with
the Indenture, occur a Remarketing of the Notes, the Remarketing Settlement

12

 

Date of which Remarketing shall occur during the First Remarketing Settlement Date Period; provided, however,
that if such Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing, then there shall, in accordance with the
Indenture, occur a second Remarketing of the Notes, the Remarketing Settlement Date of which
Remarketing shall occur during the Second Remarketing Settlement Date Period; provided further that
if such second Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing, then there shall, in accordance with the
Indenture, occur a third Remarketing of the Notes, the Remarketing Settlement Date of which
Remarketing shall occur during the Third Remarketing Settlement Date Period. Notwithstanding
anything in the Indenture to the contrary, in no event shall the Company be obligated (but the
Company may, in its sole discretion, nonetheless elect) to conduct a Remarketing at any time when
no Normal Common Equity Units are outstanding, and a Final Failed Remarketing shall be deemed not
to occur (and no Holder shall be entitled to exercise a Put Right pursuant to  Article IV) if the
Company elects, in accordance with this sentence, not to conduct a Remarketing.

     (b) The Company shall appoint a nationally recognized investment banking firm as Remarketing
Agent and enter into a Remarketing Agreement at least thirty (30) days before the Applicable Stock
Purchase Date. The Company may appoint different Remarketing Agents for Remarketings with
different Applicable Stock Purchase Dates, provided, however, that the Company shall appoint a
Remarketing Agent and cause the related Remarketing Agreement to be in effect for the period
commencing not less than thirty (30) days prior to the related Applicable Stock Purchase Date and
ending no earlier than the earlier of (A) such Applicable Stock Purchase Date; and (B) the
determination, in accordance with this  Article III, that the related Remarketing is a Successful
Remarketing or Failed Remarketing. Each Remarketing Agreement shall include such terms, conditions
and other provisions as the Company and the applicable Remarketing Agent may agree between
themselves but shall in any event provide substantially to the following effect with respect to the
applicable Remarketing:

     (i) that such Remarketing Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
a cash price for the Notes to be remarketed in such Remarketing which results
in gross proceeds equal to at least the sum of (I) the Remarketing Fee; (II) one
hundred percent (100%) of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes; (III) the Interest
Make-Whole of such Notes; and (IV) the product of five basis points (0.05%) and the
aggregate principal amount of such Notes (such sum, the “Successful Remarketing Gross
Proceeds Amount”);

     (ii) that, subject to and in accordance with  Section 3.2, such Remarketing Agent will
reset the Note Interest Rate in order to give effect to  Section 3.1(b)(i);

     (iii) that such Remarketing Agent will, if such Remarketing is Successful, deduct the
Remarketing Fee from the gross proceeds of such Remarketing and remit any proceeds remaining
after such deduction as follows (allocated to the Notes that participated in such
Remarketing on a pro rata basis in proportion to their principal amounts):

     (1) to the extent such net proceeds relate to Notes that form part of any
Normal Common Equity Unit(s), such Remarketing Agent shall remit such remaining
proceeds to the Securities Intermediary (as defined in the Pledge

13

 

Agreement) for
application in accordance with Section 5.9(a) of the Pledge Agreement; and

     (2) to the extent such net proceeds relate to Separate Notes, such Remarketing
Agent shall remit such remaining proceeds to or at the direction of the Custodial
Agent for payment to the Holders of such Separate Notes; and

     (iv) that the Remarketing Fee for such Remarketing will be as agreed among the Company
and such Remarketing Agent and set forth in the Remarketing Agreement.

     (c) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the Remarketing of the
Notes as set forth in this  Article III. In the sole judgment of the Company, the Company may
elect to file, and cause to become effective, a registration statement under the Securities Act
registering the sale of all Notes to be remarketed in a Remarketing, which registration statement
shall be in a form that enables the Remarketing Agent to effect sales of such Notes in such
Remarketing pursuant to such registration statement. If the Company shall not have so elected to
file and make effective such a registration statement with respect to a Remarketing, then the
Company and the Remarketing Agent shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to effect such
Remarketing pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act or another available exemption from the
registration and prospectus-delivery requirements of the Securities Act.

     SECTION 3.2 Reset of Note Interest Rate in Connection with Successful Remarketing.

     (a) Subject to and in accordance with this  Article III, the applicable Remarketing Agent
shall, in connection with a Successful Remarketing, reset the Note Interest Rate to a new rate (the
“Reset Rate”), rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of one percent (0.001%) per annum, and such
Reset Rate shall, if such Remarketing is Successful, apply to all Notes (whether or not such Notes
were included in such Remarketing) from, and including, the Remarketing Settlement Date of such
Remarketing; provided, however, that:

     (i) if the Applicable Stock Purchase Date corresponding to such Remarketing is not the
Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date, then the Reset Rate shall in no event exceed a rate per
annum equal to the Reset Cap;

     (ii) if such Applicable Stock Purchase Date is the Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date,
then the Reset Cap shall not apply to the Reset Rate for such Remarketing; and

     (iii) the Reset Rate shall in no event be less than zero percent (0%) per annum in
connection with such Remarketing.

     (b) If a Remarketing is Successful, then the applicable Remarketing Agent shall, no later than
4:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Remarketing Settlement Date for such Remarketing, notify the
Company and the Trustee and the Stock Purchase Contract Agent (i) that such Remarketing was
Successful and (ii) of the Reset Rate for such Remarketing.

     (c) If a Remarketing is not Successful and is not a Final Failed Remarketing, then:

14

 

     (i) no Notes shall be sold in such Remarketing;

     (ii) the Note Interest Rate shall not be changed in connection with such Remarketing
(it being understood that the Note Interest Rate may, in accordance with the provisions of
the Indenture, be changed in connection with a subsequent Remarketing that is Successful);
and

     (iii) the Company and the applicable Remarketing Agent shall attempt another
Remarketing in accordance with, and subject to, Section 3.1(a).

     (d) If a Remarketing is a Final Failed Remarketing, then:

     (i) no Notes shall be sold in such Remarketing;

     (ii) no subsequent Remarketing shall take place;

     (iii) the Note Interest Rate shall not be changed in connection with such Remarketing;

     (iv) subject to the provisions of the Pledge Agreement and, in the case of any Note
that forms part of any Pledged Common Equity Units, the Indemnification Security Agreement,
each Note that was included in such Final Failed Remarketing and that is part of any Normal
Common Equity Unit shall, if the Holder thereof has exercised its Put Right with respect to
such Note in accordance herewith, be transferred to the Company pursuant to Article IV, and
the portion of the Put Consideration for such Note equal to the principal amount of such
Note shall be applied, by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, in full satisfaction of the
obligations of such Holder under the related Stock Purchase Contracts to pay the related
Purchase Price; and

     (v) each Note that was included in such Final Failed Remarketing shall, if the Holder
thereof has not exercised its Put Right with respect to such Note in accordance with the
Indenture, be returned to such Holder thereof in accordance with the Stock Purchase Contract
Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and, in the case of Notes forming part of Pledged Common
Equity Units, the Indemnification Security Agreement.

     SECTION 3.3 Remarketing Procedures.

     (a) The Stock Purchase Contract Agreement provides that the Company shall give Holders (as
defined therein) of Common Equity Units, and the Company shall give Holders of Separate Notes
notice of a Remarketing at least thirty (30) Business Days before the related Applicable Stock
Purchase Date. Such notice shall set forth:

     (i) the procedures a beneficial owner must follow if it holds its Notes as a component
of a Normal Common Equity Unit to elect not to participate in such Remarketing, and the date
by which such election must be made;

     (ii) the procedures a beneficial owner must follow if it holds Separate Notes to elect
to participate in such Remarketing; and

15

 

     (iii) if the Applicable Stock Purchase Date corresponding to such Remarketing is the
Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date, the procedures a beneficial owner of Normal Common
Equity Units must follow in the event such Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing in order to
elect not to exercise its Put Right.

     (b) On each Remarketing Settlement Date, each outstanding Note forming part of a Normal Common
Equity Unit will be tendered or deemed tendered to the applicable Remarketing Agent for Remarketing
unless the Holder thereof elects not to participate in such Remarketing. Each Holder of Notes
forming part of a Normal Common Equity Unit, by purchasing such Common Equity Unit, agrees to have
such Notes remarketed in any Remarketing (unless such Holder elects not to participate in such
Remarketing as provided in the Indenture and in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Pledge
Agreement) and authorizes the applicable Remarketing Agent to take any and all actions on its
behalf necessary to effect such Remarketing. Each Holder of Notes forming part of a Normal Common
Equity Unit shall have the right to elect not to have such Notes sold pursuant to a Remarketing,
which right may be exercised by electing, no later than the close of business on the eleventh
(11th) Business Day immediately before the Applicable Stock Purchase Date of such Remarketing, Cash
Settlement to apply to such Normal Common Equity Unit in accordance with, and subject to, Section
5.2(b) of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Section 5.6 of the Pledge Agreement.

     (c) Each Holder of Separate Notes may elect to have such Separate Notes remarketed in any
Remarketing by notifying the Custodial Agent and delivering such Separate Notes to the Custodial
Agent before the close of business on the twenty fifth (25th) Business Day immediately before the
Applicable Stock Purchase Date of such Remarketing, in accordance with the Pledge Agreement;
provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, no Holder of a
Separate Note may so elect to include such Separate Note in a Remarketing unless the principal
amount of such Separate Note is an integral multiple of one
thousand dollars ($1,000). No such notice and delivery may be conditioned upon the level at
which the Reset Rate is established in the Remarketing or any other condition, and each such notice
containing any such condition shall be null and void. Each such notice and delivery may be
withdrawn before the close of business on the twenty-fifth (25th) Business Day immediately before
such Applicable Stock Purchase Date in accordance with the Pledge Agreement. Each such notice and
delivery, if not withdrawn in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, shall be
irrevocable with respect to such Remarketing. Pursuant to Section 5.9(c) of the Pledge Agreement,
no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the twenty-fourth (24th) Business Day immediately
before the Applicable Stock Purchase Date of a Remarketing, the Custodial Agent, based on the
notices and deliveries received by it before such time, shall notify the applicable Remarketing
Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Separate Notes to be tendered in such Remarketing and
shall cause such Separate Notes to be presented to such Remarketing Agent.

     (d) If a Remarketing is Successful, then the applicable Remarketing Agent shall deduct the
Remarketing Fee to which it is entitled as provided in Section 3.1(b)(iii) and the related
Remarketing Agreement from the gross proceeds of such Remarketing and remit the net proceeds as
provided in Section 3.1(b)(iii).

16

 

     (e) If a Remarketing is Successful, then the Company shall issue a press release through
Bloomberg Business News or another reasonable means of distribution stating that such Remarketing
was Successful and specifying the Reset Rate and shall post such information on its corporate
website.

     (f) If a Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing, then the Company shall issue a press release
through Bloomberg Business News or another reasonable means of distribution stating that such
Remarketing was a Failed Remarketing and shall publish such information on its corporate website.

     (g) The right of each Holder to have its Notes remarketed and sold in connection with any
Remarketing shall be limited to the extent that (i) the applicable Remarketing Agent conducts a
Remarketing pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement; (ii) such Remarketing Agent is able
to find a purchaser or purchasers for the Notes offered in such Remarketing in accordance with this
Article III and the Remarketing Agreement; and (iii) such purchaser or purchasers deliver the
purchase price therefor in cash to such Remarketing Agent as and when required.

     (h) Neither the Company nor any Remarketing Agent shall be obligated in any case to provide
funds to make payment upon tender of Notes for remarketing.

ARTICLE IV

Put Right of Holders

     SECTION 4.1 Put Right upon a Final Failed Remarketing. Subject to Section 4.2 and Section 4.3,
if there has occurred a Final Failed Remarketing, then Holders of Notes forming part of any Common
Equity Unit shall have the right (the “Put Right”) to require the Company to purchase, on the
Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date, such
Notes for cash (the “Put Consideration”) in an amount equal to the principal amount of the Notes to
be purchased by the Company plus the unpaid interest thereon that has accrued to, but not
including, the Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date.

     SECTION 4.2 Exercise of Put Right. The Put Right of a Holder of Notes forming part of any Normal
Common Equity Units shall automatically, without any action of such Holder, be deemed to be
exercised on the Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date; provided, however, such Put Right shall be
deemed not to be exercised if (1) a Final Failed Remarketing does not occur; or (2) such Holder
duly elects Cash Settlement to apply to such Normal Common Equity Units in accordance with, and
subject to, Section 5.2(b) Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Section 5.6 of the Pledge
Agreement (including, without limitation, the due payment, in accordance therewith, in lawful money
of the United States by certified or cashier’s check or wire transfer of immediately available
funds payable to or upon the order of the Securities Intermediary (as defined in the Stock Purchase
Contract Agreement), of the aggregate purchase price payable pursuant to the applicable Stock
Purchase Contracts of such Normal Common Equity Units). Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture
to the contrary, in no event shall a Holder be permitted to exercise the Put Right unless the
principal amount of the Notes as to which the Put Right is exercised is an integral multiple of one
thousand dollars ($1,000).

17

 

     SECTION 4.3 Pledge Agreement and Indemnification Security Agreement. The rights of each Holder of
Notes forming part of any Normal Common Equity Unit, including such Holders’ Put Rights, shall, if
such Holder is the Initial Holder (as defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement) of such
Normal Common Equity Units, be subject to the security interest in such Notes in favor of the
Company provided for in the Pledge Agreement and, in the case of Notes that form part of any
Pledged Common Equity Units, the Indemnification Security Agreement.

ARTICLE V

Events of Default, Waiver and Notice

     SECTION 5.1 Events of Default.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, an “Event of Default,” when
used in the Indenture with respect to the Notes, means any one or more of the following events that
shall have occurred and be continuing (it being understood that this definition of “Event of
Default” shall supersede the definition thereof set forth in Section 6.01(a) of the Base
Indenture):

     (i) the Company defaults in the payment of any installment of interest upon the Notes,
as and when the same shall become due and payable, and the continuance of such default for a
period of thirty (30) consecutive days;

     (ii) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of the Notes as and when the
same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise;

     (iii) the Company fails to observe or perform any other of its covenants or agreements
with respect to the Notes contained in the Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement
that has been expressly included in the Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more
series of Securities other than the Notes) for a period of ninety (90) days after the date
on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied and stating that
such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture, shall have been given to the
Company by the Trustee, by registered or certified mail, or to the Company and the Trustee
by the holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) in principal amount of the Notes at the
time Outstanding;

     (iv) the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of:

     (1) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary
proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law, and such decree or order shall
remain unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days;

     (2) a decree or order adjudging the Company to be insolvent, or approving a
petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of the
Company, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period
of sixty (60) consecutive days; or

18

 

     (3) a final and non-appealable order appointing a Custodian of the Company, or
of any substantial part of the property of the Company, or ordering the winding up
or liquidation of the affairs of the Company; or

     (v) the Company, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law; either (1)
commences a voluntary case or proceeding; (2) consents to the entry of an order for relief
against it in an involuntary case or proceeding; (3) files a petition or answer or consent
seeking reorganization or relief or consents to such filing or to the appointment of or
taking possession by a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, and
such Custodian is not discharged within sixty (60) days; (4) makes a general assignment for
the benefit of its creditors; or (5) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, Section 6.01(b) of the Base
Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default
specified in  Section 5.1(a)(iv) or  Section 5.1(a)(v) of this Supplemental Indenture) with respect
to the Notes at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of
no less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding,
by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if by such Holders), may declare the
principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Outstanding Notes to be due
and payable immediately, and upon such declaration the same shall become and shall be immediately
due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in  Section 5.1(a)(iv) or  Section 5.1(a)(v) of
this Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes at the time Outstanding occurs, the principal
amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all the
Outstanding Notes shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any
declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, Section 6.01(c) of the Base
Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. At any time after the principal of, and accrued and unpaid
interest on, the Notes shall have become due and payable pursuant to an acceleration in accordance
with  Section 5.1(b) of this Supplemental Indenture, and before any judgment or decree for the
payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, by written notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences if: (i) the
Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of
interest on all Outstanding Notes and the principal of all Notes that shall have become due
otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and, to the extent that such
payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, in each case at
an interest rate, per annum, equal to the Note Interest Rate) and all amounts payable to the
Trustee under Section 7.06 of the Base Indenture; and (ii) any and all Events of Default under the
Indenture, other than the nonpayment of principal on the Notes that shall have become due solely on
account of such acceleration, shall have been remedied or waived as provided in Section 6.08 of the
Base Indenture. No such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon.

[REVERSE OF SECURITY]

MetLife, Inc.

Series D Senior Debenture due 2024

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized series (the “Notes”) of the Securities (as defined in
the Base Indenture) of the Company, issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of November
9, 2001 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A. (as successor in interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association (as successor to
Bank One Trust Company, N.A.)), as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Twenty-First
Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2010 between the Company and the Trustee (the
“Supplemental Indenture,” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). Reference is
hereby made to the Indenture, which sets forth the rights, limitations, obligations, duties and
immunities of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Capitalized terms used in
this Note that are not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in
the Indenture.

Interest on a Note shall accrue on the principal amount of such Note from, and including, the most
recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from,
and including, the date such Note was first issued, in each case to, but excluding, the next
Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity date of the principal of such Note, as the case may
be. The initial rate per annum at which interest accrues on the Notes is the Initial Note Interest
Rate, which rate is subject to reset in connection with a Successful Remarketing, as set forth in
the Indenture. The Interest Payment Dates are March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15 of
each year, commencing on, and including, March 15, 2011, and the Regular Record Dates are the
immediately preceding March 1, June 1, September 1, or December 1, respectively (whether or not
such date is a Business Day). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months.

The Company shall not have the right to redeem any Notes prior to the Redemption Trigger Date. The
Company shall have the right, at the Company’s option, at any time, and from time to time, to
redeem all or any part of the Notes, on any date (the “Redemption Date”) on or after the Redemption
Trigger Date (such Redemption Date to be selected by the Company), at a price payable in cash equal
to the Note Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, if a
Redemption Date is after the Regular Record Date for a payment of interest on such Note and on or
before the next Interest Payment Date of such Note, then such payment of interest shall,
notwithstanding such redemption, be made, on such Interest Payment Date, to the Holder of such Note
as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date. The Notes shall not be entitled to any
sinking fund payments.

This Note maybe subject to up to three (3) Remarketings, as provided in the Indenture. Subject to
the terms of the Indenture, the applicable Remarketing Agent shall, in connection with a Successful
Remarketing, reset the Note Interest Rate to a new rate (the “Reset Rate”), rounded to the nearest
one-thousandth of one percent (0.001%) per annum, and such Reset Rate shall, if

A-4

 

such Remarketing is Successful, apply to all Notes (whether or not such Notes were included in such
Remarketing) from, and including, the Remarketing Settlement Date of such Remarketing.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal amount of, and accrued
and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes may become due and payable immediately, subject to the
terms of the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time
Outstanding to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of, among other things, adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of
any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes;
provided, however, that, among other things, no such supplemental indenture shall, without the
consent of the Holders of each Note then Outstanding and affected thereby, (i) reduce the principal
amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or (ii)
reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding Notes, the consent of whose Holders is
required for modification or amendment of the Indenture. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on
behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, waive any past default under the Indenture with respect to
the Notes and its consequences, other than certain defaults set forth in the Indenture.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Company, the Trustee, any
paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem and treat the registered holder hereof as the
absolute owner hereof (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of
ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and (subject to the applicable record
dates) interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor
any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this Note, or for
any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture,
against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of
the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution,
statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof,
expressly waived and released.

The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons, in principal amounts equal to an
integral multiple of one thousand dollars ($1,000). Subject to the terms of the Indenture, the
Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of a different authorized
denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made under the internal laws of the State of New York,
and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of said State.

ARTICLE II

General Terms and Conditions of the Series Notes

     SECTION 2.1 Designation and Principal Amount. There is hereby authorized a series of
Securities (the Securities of such series, the “Notes”), which shall be designated the “Series E
Senior Debentures due 2045.” The initial aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued is
one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000.00), which initial amount to be issued shall be set forth in a
written order of the Company for the initial authentication and delivery of the Notes pursuant to
the Indenture, such order to be signed by an authorized officer of the Company. The Company may,
from time to time and without the consent of the holders of Notes, create further securities having
the same terms and conditions as the Notes in all respects (or in all respects except for the issue
date, the date of the first payment of interest thereon, the issue price or the initial interest
accrual date), so that such further issue shall be consolidated and form a single series with the
outstanding Notes, provided that such further securities are fungible with the outstanding Notes
for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Notes shall have no premium. Notes may be issued only
in principal amounts equal to an integral multiple of two thousand dollars ($2,000) and Component
Notes may be issued only in principal amounts equal to an integral multiple of one thousand dollars
($1,000).

     SECTION 2.2 Maturity. The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be the Stated Maturity of
the principal of the Second Tranche Notes.

     SECTION 2.3 Form and Payment. Except as provided in Section 2.4, the Notes shall be issued in
definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons. Principal of, and interest on, the
Notes issued in definitive form shall be payable, the transfer of such Notes will be registrable,
and such Notes will be exchangeable for Notes bearing identical terms and provisions, in each case
at the office or agency of the Trustee; provided, however, that payment of interest on any Note may
be made, at the option of the Company, by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto at such
address as shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer in immediately available funds
to the bank account number of such Person specified in writing to the Trustee at least five (5)
Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date by such Person and entered in the
Security Register by the Security Registrar.

     SECTION 2.4 Global Notes.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, unless the Company elects,
in its sole and absolute discretion, to issue the Certificates in the form of one or more fully
registered Global Certificates, (i) the provisions of Section 2.4(b) shall not apply; (ii) the
Certificates representing the initial one billion dollars ($1,000,000,000.00) aggregate principal
amount of the Notes to be issued hereunder shall not initially be issued in the form of Global

8

 

Certificates and such Notes shall not initially be Global Securities; and (iii) Section 2.11 of the
Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes.

     (b) Each Certificate to be issued in the form of one or more fully registered Global
Certificates shall be delivered to the Depositary or its custodian by, or on behalf of, the
Company. The initial Depositary, if any, shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate or in a
Board Resolution. Such Global Certificates shall initially be registered on the books of the
Security Registrar in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the Depositary, and no Beneficial
Owner will receive a definitive Certificate representing such Beneficial Owner’s interest in such
Global Certificate, except as provided in Section 2.6. Unless and until definitive, fully
registered Certificates have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 2.6:

     (i) the provisions of this Section 2.4(b) shall be in full force and effect;

     (ii) the Company, the Trustee and each Paying Agent and Security Registrar shall be
entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of the Indenture (including, without
limitation, making payments of principal or interest on the Notes and receiving approvals,
votes or consents pursuant to the Indenture) as the Holder of the Notes and the sole holder
of the Global Certificates and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners; provided,
however, that any Beneficial Owner may directly enforce against the Company, without the
involvement of the Depositary or any other Person, its right to receive definitive
Certificates pursuant to Section 2.6;

     (iii) subject to Section 2.4(a), to the extent that the provisions of this
Section 2.4(b) conflict with any other provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of this
Section 2.4(b) shall control; and

     (iv) the rights of the Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through the
Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such
Beneficial Owners and the Depositary or the Depositary Participants; provided, however, that
any Beneficial Owner may directly enforce against the Company, without the involvement of
the Depositary or any other Person, its right to receive definitive Certificates pursuant to
Section 2.6.

     Transfers of securities evidenced by Global Certificates shall be made through the facilities
of the Depositary, and any cancellation of, or increase or decrease in the principal amount of, the
Notes evidenced by such Global Certificates shall be accomplished by making appropriate annotations
on the Schedule of Increases and Decreases for such Global Certificate.

     The Trustee shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Beneficial Owner of a Global
Certificate, any participant in the Depositary or other Person with respect to the accuracy of the
records of the Depositary or its nominee or of any such participant or member thereof, with respect
to any ownership interest in Global Certificates or with respect to the delivery to any such
participant, member, Beneficial Owner or other Person (other than the Depositary) of any notice or
the payment of any amount, under or with respect to such Global Certificates.

     Every Global Certificate authenticated, executed and delivered hereunder shall bear a legend
in substantially the following form:

9

 

THIS CERTIFICATE IS A GLOBAL CERTIFICATE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE HEREINAFTER
REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO., AS NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST
COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (THE “DEPOSITARY”), THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE
DEPOSITARY. THIS CERTIFICATE IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR CERTIFICATES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A
PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITARY OR ITS NOMINEE ONLY IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED
IN THE INDENTURE, AND NO TRANSFER OF THIS CERTIFICATE (OTHER THAN A TRANSFER OF THIS
CERTIFICATE AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY A NOMINEE OF
THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY) MAY BE REGISTERED
EXCEPT IN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES.

UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY FOR
REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REQUESTED IN
THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF
THE DEPOSITARY (AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS
REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITARY), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER
USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER
HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

     SECTION 2.5 Appointment of Successor Depositary. If the Notes are represented in the form of
one or more fully registered Global Certificates and an event set forth in Section 2.6(ii)(1) or
Section 2.6(ii)(2) occurs, the Depositary elects to discontinue its services as securities
depositary with respect to such Notes, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint a
successor Depositary with respect to the Notes.

     SECTION 2.6 Definitive Certificates. If:

     (i) the Notes are represented by one or more fully registered Global Certificates;
and

     (ii) either:

     (1) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to
continue to act as Depositary with respect to the Notes and no successor Depositary
has been appointed pursuant to Section 2.5 within ninety (90) days after such
notice; or

     (2) the Depositary ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under
Section 17A of the Exchange Act when the Depositary is required to be so registered
to act as the Depositary and so notifies the Company, and no successor

10

 

Depositary
has been appointed pursuant to Section 2.5 within ninety (90) days after such
notice; or

     (3) any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; or

     (4) a Beneficial Owner provides a written request, upon sixty (60) days
prior notice to the Company and the Trustee, that such Beneficial Owner’s interest
in the Notes represented by a Global Certificate is to be exchanged for an
equivalent interest in the Notes represented by definitive Certificate,

then (x) definitive Certificates may be prepared by the Company with respect to such Notes and
delivered to the Trustee and (y) upon surrender of the Global Certificates representing the Notes
by the Depositary, accompanied by registration instructions, the Company shall cause definitive
Certificates to be delivered to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the instructions of the
Depositary. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent or any Security Registrar shall be
liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions, and each may conclusively rely on, and shall
be authorized and protected in relying on, such instructions. Each definitive Certificate so
delivered shall evidence Notes of the same kind and tenor as the Global Certificate so surrendered
in respect thereof.

     SECTION 2.7 Private Placement Legend.

     (a) Subject to Section 2.7(b), each Certificate that constitutes a “restricted security”
within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act shall bear a legend (the “Private Placement
Legend”) in substantially the following form:

THE OFFER AND SALE OF THIS SECURITY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF
1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE
TRANSFERRED EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT OR AN EXEMPTION FROM THE
REGISTRATION AND PROSPECTUS-DELIVERY REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, (i) Certificates executed,
authenticated and delivered upon a transfer of any interest in a Certificate bearing the Private
Placement Legend shall also bear the Private Placement Legend unless there is delivered to the
Trustee, the Security Registrar and the Company an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the Company and addressed to the Company to the effect, or other reasonable proof, that such
Private Placement Legend need not be applied to such Certificates; (ii) the Trustee, the Security
Registrar and the Company may refuse to effect any transfer of an interest in a Certificate unless
there is delivered to the Trustee, the Security Registrar and the Company an opinion of counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and addressed to the Company to the effect, or other
reasonable proof, that such transfer complies with the registration and prospectus-delivery
requirements of the Securities Act or is exempt from such requirements; and (iii) the Company may,
in its sole and absolute discretion, and subject to the receipt of any opinion(s) of counsel or
other document(s) it deems appropriate, cause the Private Placement Legend to be removed from any
Certificate (including, without limitation, a Certificate that

11

 

constitutes a “restricted security”
within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act but that is eligible for resale pursuant to
Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act). The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor,
determine or inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this
Supplemental Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of any interest in any
Certificate (including any transfers between or among participants in the Depositary, members or
Beneficial Owners in any Global Certificate) other than to require delivery of such certificates
and other documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and when
expressly required by, the terms of this Supplemental Indenture, and to examine the same to
determine substantial compliance as to form with the express requirements hereof.

     SECTION 2.8 Interest.

     (a) Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Notes at a rate per annum equal
to the Note Interest Rate. The Note Interest Rate shall initially be equal to the Initial Note
Interest Rate and shall thereafter be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3.2. The Company
shall pay interest on the Notes, payable quarterly in arrears, on March 15, June 15, September 15,
and December 15 of each year (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on, and
including, March 15, 2011. Interest that is due on a Note on any March 15, June 15, September 15,
or December 15 shall be paid to the person who is the Holder of such Note as of the close of
business on the immediately preceding March 1, June 1, September 1, or December 1, respectively
(whether or not such date is a Business Day) (each such date, a “Regular Record Date”). Interest
on a Note shall accrue on the principal amount of such Note from, and including, the most recent
date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from, and
including, the date such Note was first issued, in each case to, but excluding, the next Interest
Payment Date or the Stated Maturity date of the principal of such Note, as the case may be.
Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Section 4.01(b)
of the Base Indenture shall not apply to the Notes.

     (b) The Notes shall not be entitled to any sinking fund payments.

     SECTION 2.9 Redemption. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, the Company
shall not have the right to redeem any Notes prior to the Redemption Trigger Date. The Company
shall have the right, at the Company’s option, at any time, and from time to time, to redeem all or
any part of the Component Notes, on any date (the “Redemption Date”) on or after the Redemption
Trigger Date (such Redemption Date to be selected by the Company), at a price payable in cash equal
to the Note Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, if a
Redemption Date is after the Regular Record Date for a payment of interest on such Component Note
and on or before the next Interest Payment Date of such Component Note, then such payment of
interest shall, notwithstanding such redemption, be made, on such Interest Payment Date, to the
Holder of such Component Note as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date. Each
redemption pursuant to this Section 2.9 shall be subject to Article III of the Base Indenture,
except that, for purposes of the Notes, Sections 3.03(a), 3.04, 3.05 and 3.06 of the Base Indenture
shall not apply. Notwithstanding Section 3.02 of the Base Indenture, the notice of the foregoing
redemption need not set forth the Note Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof.
The Company shall notify the

12

 

Trustee of the Note Redemption Price promptly after the determination
thereof and the Trustee shall have no responsibility for any such determination.

          If the giving of notice of redemption shall have been completed as above provided, the
Securities or portions of Securities of the series to be redeemed specified in such notice shall
become due and payable on the date and at the place stated in such notice at the applicable
redemption price, and interest on such Securities or portions of Securities shall cease to accrue
on and after the date fixed for redemption, unless the Company shall default in the payment of such
redemption price with respect to any such Security or portion thereof. On presentation and
surrender of such Securities on or after the date fixed for redemption at the place of payment
specified in the notice, said Securities shall be paid and redeemed at the applicable redemption
price for such series.

          For avoidance of doubt, the First Tranche Notes may be redeemed pursuant to this Section 2.9
independently of the Second Tranche Notes, and the Second Tranche Notes may be redeemed pursuant to
this Section 2.9 independently of the First Tranche Notes. If any Component Note is, in
connection with a redemption, separated from the Note of which it forms a part, then, upon the
surrender of such Note to the Paying Agent for redemption, the Company shall execute, the Trustee
or Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and the Trustee shall make available for delivery to the
Holder of such Note, certificates representing the Component Notes of such Note that are not being
redeemed pursuant to such redemption.

     SECTION 2.10 Bifurcation of Notes into Two Tranches Prior to Remarketing.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, effective at the open of
business on the Bifurcation Date, each Note outstanding immediately prior to such time shall,
automatically and without the act of any Holder, convert into a unit consisting of two (2) tranches
(the “Bifurcation”), with each two thousand dollars ($2,000) principal amount of Notes thereafter
consisting of (i) one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) principal amount of a First Tranche Note and
(ii) one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) principal amount of a Second Tranche Note.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, the terms of each Component
Note shall be identical to the terms of the Notes, except as follows:

     (i) Interest shall accrue on the principal amount of the Component Notes at a rate
per annum equal to the Component Note Interest Rate applicable to the tranche of such
Component Notes. Each of the Note Interest Rates shall initially be equal to the Initial
Note Interest Rate and shall thereafter be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3.2.
Interest on each Component Note shall accrue on the principal amount of such Component Note
from, and including, the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for
or, if no interest has been paid, from, and including, the Bifurcation Date, in each case
to, but excluding, the next Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity date of the
principal amount of such Component Note, as the case may be.

     (ii) The Stated Maturity of the principal of the First Tranche Notes is June 15,
2018; provided, however, that if, after the Bifurcation Date, there shall occur a
Remarketing that is Successful, or there shall occur a Final Failed Remarketing that gives

13

 

right to a Put Right pursuant to Section 4.1, then the Stated Maturity of the principal of
the First Tranche Notes shall be adjusted to the date that is the thirteenth (13th) Interest
Payment Date immediately following the Actual Stock Purchase Date, and such adjustment shall
be effective on the Actual Stock Purchase Date.

     (iii) The Stated Maturity of the principal of the Second Tranche Notes is June 15,
2045; provided, however, that if, after the Bifurcation Date, there shall occur a
Remarketing that is Successful, or there shall occur a Final Failed Remarketing that gives
right to a Put Right pursuant to Section 4.1, then the Stated Maturity of the principal of
the Second Tranche Notes shall be adjusted to the date that is the one hundred and
twenty-first (121st) Interest Payment Date immediately following the Actual Stock Purchase
Date, and such adjustment shall be effective on the Actual Stock Purchase Date.

     (iv) The Holder of a Note that consists of Component Notes shall be deemed to be
the Holder of such Component Notes.

     (v) No Component Note shall be separable from the Note of which such Component Note
forms part, except pursuant to Section 2.9 or Section 3.1(b), and a Component Note can be
separated from the Note of which such Component Note forms part only in integral multiples
of one thousand dollars ($1,000) in principal amount of such Component Note.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, from and after the open of
business on the Bifurcation Date,

     (i) each Note shall cease to bear interest and no amounts (including, without
limitation, principal or interest) shall be payable by the Company on any Note, except for
payments due on the Component Notes forming part of such Note; provided, however, that any
amounts that were due on any Note prior to the Bifurcation but which were not punctually
paid, and which remain overdue, at the open of business on the Bifurcation Date shall, after
such time, continue to be payable on each Component Note forming part of such Note pro rata
in proportion to the principal amount of such Component Note;

     (ii) upon the separation of any Component Note from a Note,

     (1) the Company shall execute, the Trustee or Authenticating Agent shall
authenticate and the Trustee shall make available for delivery to the Holder of such
Note, certificates representing the Component Notes of such Note; and

     (2) such Note shall, upon such separation, cease to be outstanding (it
being understood that a new Note may thereafter be formed pursuant to Section
2.10(c)(iii));

     (iii) upon request and the surrender, by a Holder, to the Trustee of Component
Notes, of each of the two tranches thereof, in sufficient respective principal amounts to
create a unit Note having an aggregate principal amount equal to an integral multiple of one
thousand dollars ($1,000), the Company shall execute, the Trustee or Authenticating Agent
shall authenticate and the Trustee shall make available for delivery to such Holder,

14

 

certificates representing (1) a unit Note of such aggregate principal amount; and (2) if
applicable, Component Notes of the applicable tranche or tranches having respective
principal amounts equal to the principal amounts thereof, if any, not required to create
such unit Note; provided, however, that no such request shall be honored if clause (2) would
require the delivery of a Certificate representing a Component Note having an aggregate
principal amount that is not an integral multiple of one thousand dollars ($1,000);

     (iv) each Note shall, until the Component Notes forming part of such Note are
separated from such Note, constitute a unit security of the Company consisting of the
Component Notes forming part of such Note (which unit security is herein sometimes referred
to as a “unit Note”);

     (v) the Events of Default in Section 5.1(a) shall cease to apply to the Notes but
shall be read instead to apply to the Component Notes, and an Event of Default with respect
to one tranche of Component Notes shall not, in itself, be deemed to be an Event of Default
with respect to the other tranche of Component Notes.

     (d) The Component Notes and the Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication to be endorsed
thereon are to be substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibit A hereto, with such
changes as are appropriate to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.10.

     SECTION 2.11 CUSIP Numbers. The Company may use one or more “CUSIP” numbers for the Notes
and/or the Component Notes, and, if the Company does so, the Trustee shall, as a convenience to
Holders, use the CUSIP numbers in notices to Holders; provided, however, that no representation is
hereby deemed to be made by the Trustee as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP numbers
printed on the notice or on the Notes or the Component Notes; provided further, that reliance may
be placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Notes and/or the Component Notes,
as applicable, and the effectiveness of any such notice shall not be affected by any defect in, or
omission of, such CUSIP numbers. The Company shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change in
the CUSIP numbers.

     SECTION 2.12 Security Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company initially appoints the Trustee
as the Security Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes.

     SECTION 2.13 Ranking. The indebtedness of the Company arising under or in connection with this
Supplemental Indenture and every outstanding Note issued under this Supplemental Indenture from
time to time constitutes and will constitute a senior unsecured obligation of the Company, ranking
equally with other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness of the Company and ranking
senior to any existing or future subordinated indebtedness of the Company.

     SECTION 2.14 Form of Notes. The Notes and the Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication to be
endorsed thereon are to be substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

ARTICLE III

Remarketing

     SECTION 3.1 Obligation to Conduct Remarketing and Related Requirements.

     (a) Except as provided in the immediately following sentence, there shall, in accordance with
the Indenture, occur, after the Bifurcation Date, a Remarketing of the Component Notes, the
Remarketing Settlement Date of which Remarketing shall occur during the First Remarketing
Settlement Date Period; provided, however, that if such Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing, then
there shall, in accordance with the Indenture, occur a second Remarketing of the Component Notes,
the Remarketing Settlement Date of which Remarketing shall occur during the Second Remarketing
Settlement Date Period; provided further that if such second Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing,
then there shall, in accordance with the Indenture, occur a third Remarketing of the Component
Notes, the Remarketing Settlement Date of which Remarketing shall occur during the Third
Remarketing Settlement Date Period. Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture to the contrary, in
no event shall the Company be obligated (but the Company may, in its sole discretion, nonetheless
elect) to conduct a Remarketing at any time when no Normal Common Equity Units are outstanding, and
a Final Failed Remarketing shall be deemed not to occur (and no Holder shall be entitled to
exercise a Put Right pursuant to Article IV) if the Company elects, in accordance with this
sentence, not to conduct a Remarketing.

     (b) In each Remarketing, the Component Notes forming part of the Notes that are to be included
in such Remarketing shall be separately remarketed in such Remarketing and shall, if such
Remarketing is Successful, be separated from such Notes. For avoidance of doubt, each tranche of
Component Notes may be sold to different Persons and at different prices, subject to the
requirements of Section 3.1(c). The closing of the purchase and sale of each tranche of Component
Notes in a Remarketing shall occur on the same Remarketing Settlement Date and shall be conditioned
upon each other.

     (c) The Company shall appoint a nationally recognized investment banking firm as Remarketing
Agent and enter into a Remarketing Agreement at least thirty (30) days before the Applicable Stock
Purchase Date. The Company may appoint different Remarketing Agents for Remarketings with
different Applicable Stock Purchase Dates, provided, however, that the Company shall appoint a
Remarketing Agent and cause the related Remarketing Agreement to be in effect for the period
commencing not less than thirty (30) days prior to the related Applicable Stock Purchase Date and
ending no earlier than the earlier of (A) such Applicable Stock Purchase Date; and (B) the
determination, in accordance with this Article III, that the related Remarketing is a Successful
Remarketing or Failed Remarketing. Each Remarketing Agreement shall include such terms, conditions
and other provisions as the Company and the applicable Remarketing Agent may agree between
themselves but shall in any event provide substantially to the following effect with respect to the
applicable Remarketing:

     (i) that such Remarketing Agent will use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain
a cash price for the Component Notes to be remarketed in such Remarketing which results in
gross proceeds equal to at least the sum of (I) the Remarketing Fee; (II) one hundred
percent (100%) of the aggregate principal amount of such Component Notes; (III) the Interest
Make-Whole of such Component Notes; and (IV) the product of

16

 

five basis points (0.05%) and the aggregate principal amount of such Component Notes
(such sum, the “Successful Remarketing Gross Proceeds Amount”);

     (ii) that, subject to and in accordance with Section 3.2, such Remarketing Agent will
reset the Component Note Interest Rate of each tranche of Component Notes in order to give
effect to Section 3.1(c)(i);

     (iii) that such Remarketing Agent will, if such Remarketing is Successful, deduct the
Remarketing Fee from the gross proceeds of such Remarketing and remit any proceeds remaining
after such deduction as follows (allocated to the Component Notes that participated in such
Remarketing on a pro rata basis in proportion to their principal amounts):

     (1) to the extent such net proceeds relate to Notes that form part of any
Normal Common Equity Unit(s), such Remarketing Agent shall remit such remaining
proceeds to the Securities Intermediary (as defined in the Pledge Agreement) for
application in accordance with Section 5.9(a) of the Pledge Agreement; and

     (2) to the extent such net proceeds relate to Separate Notes, such Remarketing
Agent shall remit such remaining proceeds to or at the direction of the Custodial
Agent for payment to the Holders of such Separate Notes; and

     (iv) that the Remarketing Fee for such Remarketing will be as agreed among the Company
and such Remarketing Agent and set forth in the Remarketing Agreement.

     (d) The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the Remarketing of the
Component Notes as set forth in this Article III. In the sole judgment of the Company, the
Company may elect to file, and cause to become effective, a registration statement under the
Securities Act registering the sale of all Component Notes to be remarketed in a Remarketing, which
registration statement shall be in a form that enables the Remarketing Agent to effect sales of
such Component Notes in such Remarketing pursuant to such registration statement. If the Company
shall not have so elected to file and make effective such a registration statement with respect to
a Remarketing, then the Company and the Remarketing Agent shall use their commercially reasonable
efforts to effect such Remarketing pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act or another
available exemption from the registration and prospectus-delivery requirements of the Securities
Act.

     SECTION 3.2 Reset of Component Note Interest Rates in Connection with Successful Remarketing.

     (a) Subject to and in accordance with this Article III, the applicable Remarketing Agent
shall, in connection with a Successful Remarketing, reset the Component Note Interest Rate of each
tranche of Component Notes (which reset Component Note Interest Rates need not, but may, be equal
to each other) to a new rate (the “Reset Rate”), rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of one
percent (0.001%) per annum, and each such Reset Rate shall, if such Remarketing is Successful,
apply to all Component Notes of the applicable tranche (whether or

17

 

not such Component Notes were included in such Remarketing) from, and including, the
Remarketing Settlement Date of such Remarketing; provided, however, that:

     (i) if the Applicable Stock Purchase Date corresponding to such Remarketing is not the
Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date, then none of the Reset Rates for such Remarketing shall
exceed a rate per annum equal to the Reset Cap;

     (ii) if such Applicable Stock Purchase Date is the Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date,
then the Reset Cap shall not apply to any Reset Rate for such Remarketing; and

     (iii) none of the Reset Rates shall be less than zero percent (0%) per annum in
connection with such Remarketing.

     (b) If a Remarketing is Successful, then the applicable Remarketing Agent shall, no later than
4:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Remarketing Settlement Date for such Remarketing, notify the
Company and the Trustee and the Stock Purchase Contract Agent (i) that such Remarketing was
Successful and (ii) of the Reset Rates for such Remarketing.

     (c) If a Remarketing is not Successful and is not a Final Failed Remarketing, then:

     (i) no Component Notes shall be sold in such Remarketing;

     (ii) none of the Note Interest Rates shall be changed in connection with such
Remarketing (it being understood that the Note Interest Rates may, in accordance with the
provisions of the Indenture, be changed in connection with a subsequent Remarketing that is
Successful); and

     (iii) the Company and the applicable Remarketing Agent shall attempt another
Remarketing in accordance with, and subject to, Section 3.1(a).

     (d) If a Remarketing is a Final Failed Remarketing, then:

     (i) no Component Notes shall be sold in such Remarketing;

     (ii) no subsequent Remarketing shall take place;

     (iii) none of the Note Interest Rates shall be changed in connection with such
Remarketing;

     (iv) subject to the provisions of the Pledge Agreement and, in the case of any Note
that forms part of any Pledged Common Equity Units, the Indemnification Security Agreement,
each Note that was included in such Final Failed Remarketing and that is part of any Normal
Common Equity Unit shall, if the Holder thereof has exercised its Put Right with respect to
such Note in accordance herewith, be transferred to the Company pursuant to Article IV, and
the portion of the Put Consideration for such Note equal to the principal amount of such
Note shall be applied, by the Stock Purchase Contract Agent, in

18

 

full satisfaction of the obligations of such Holder under the related Stock Purchase
Contracts to pay the related Purchase Price; and

     (v) each Note that was included in such Final Failed Remarketing shall, if the Holder
thereof has not exercised its Put Right with respect to such Note in accordance with the
Indenture, be returned to such Holder thereof in accordance with the Stock Purchase Contract
Agreement, the Pledge Agreement and, in the case of Notes forming part of Pledged Common
Equity Units, the Indemnification Security Agreement.

     SECTION 3.3 Remarketing Procedures.

     (a) The Stock Purchase Contract Agreement provides that the Company shall give Holders (as
defined therein) of Common Equity Units, and the Company shall give Holders of Separate Notes
notice of a Remarketing at least thirty (30) Business Days before the related Applicable Stock
Purchase Date. Such notice shall set forth:

     (i) the procedures a beneficial owner must follow if it holds its Notes as a component
of a Normal Common Equity Unit to elect not to participate in such Remarketing, and the date
by which such election must be made;

     (ii) the procedures a beneficial owner must follow if it holds Separate Notes to elect
to participate in such Remarketing; and

     (iii) if the Applicable Stock Purchase Date corresponding to such Remarketing is the
Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date, the procedures a beneficial owner of Normal Common
Equity Units must follow in the event such Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing in order to
elect not to exercise its Put Right.

     (b) On each Remarketing Settlement Date, each outstanding Note forming part of a Normal Common
Equity Unit will be tendered or deemed tendered to the applicable Remarketing Agent for Remarketing
unless the Holder thereof elects not to participate in such Remarketing. Each Holder of Notes
forming part of a Normal Common Equity Unit, by purchasing such Common Equity Unit, agrees to have
such Notes remarketed in any Remarketing (unless such Holder elects not to participate in such
Remarketing as provided in the Indenture and in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Pledge
Agreement) and authorizes the applicable Remarketing Agent to take any and all actions on its
behalf necessary to effect such Remarketing. Each Holder of Notes forming part of a Normal Common
Equity Unit shall have the right to elect not to have such Notes sold pursuant to a Remarketing,
which right may be exercised by electing, no later than the close of business on the eleventh
(11th) Business Day immediately before the Applicable Stock Purchase Date of such Remarketing, Cash
Settlement to apply to such Normal Common Equity Unit in accordance with, and subject to, Section
5.2(b) of the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Section 5.6 of the Pledge Agreement.

     (c) Each Holder of Separate Notes may elect to have such Separate Notes remarketed in any
Remarketing by notifying the Custodial Agent and delivering such Separate Notes to the Custodial
Agent before the close of business on the twenty fifth (25th) Business Day immediately before the
Applicable Stock Purchase Date of such Remarketing, in accordance with the Pledge Agreement;
provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in the Indenture

19

 

to the contrary, no Holder of a Separate Note may so elect to include such Separate Note in a
Remarketing unless the principal amount of such Separate Note, and the principal amount of each
tranche of Component Notes forming part of such Separate Note, is an integral multiple of one
thousand dollars ($1,000). No such notice and delivery may be conditioned upon the level at which
any Reset Rate is established in the Remarketing or any other condition, and each such notice
containing any such condition shall be null and void. Each such notice and delivery may be
withdrawn before the close of business on the twenty-fifth (25th) Business Day immediately before
such Applicable Stock Purchase Date in accordance with the Pledge Agreement. Each such notice and
delivery, if not withdrawn in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, shall be
irrevocable with respect to such Remarketing. Pursuant to Section 5.9(c) of the Pledge Agreement,
no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the twenty-fourth (24th) Business Day immediately
before the Applicable Stock Purchase Date of a Remarketing, the Custodial Agent, based on the
notices and deliveries received by it before such time, shall notify the applicable Remarketing
Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Separate Notes to be tendered in such Remarketing and
shall cause such Separate Notes to be presented to such Remarketing Agent.

     (d) If a Remarketing is Successful, then the applicable Remarketing Agent shall deduct the
Remarketing Fee to which it is entitled as provided in Section 3.1(c)(iii) and the related
Remarketing Agreement from the gross proceeds of such Remarketing and remit the net proceeds as
provided in Section 3.1(c)(iii).

     (e) If a Remarketing is Successful, then the Company shall issue a press release through
Bloomberg Business News or another reasonable means of distribution stating that such Remarketing
was Successful and specifying the Reset Rates and shall post such information on its corporate
website.

     (f) If a Remarketing is a Failed Remarketing, then the Company shall issue a press release
through Bloomberg Business News or another reasonable means of distribution stating that such
Remarketing was a Failed Remarketing and shall publish such information on its corporate website.

     (g) The right of each Holder to have its Notes remarketed and sold in connection with any
Remarketing shall be limited to the extent that (i) the applicable Remarketing Agent conducts a
Remarketing pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement; (ii) such Remarketing Agent is able
to find a purchaser or purchasers for the constituent Component Notes offered in such Remarketing
in accordance with this Article III and the Remarketing Agreement; and (iii) such purchaser or
purchasers deliver the purchase price therefor in cash to such Remarketing Agent as and when
required.

     (h) Neither the Company nor any Remarketing Agent shall be obligated in any case to provide
funds to make payment upon tender of Component Notes for remarketing.

20

 

ARTICLE IV

Put Right of Holders

     SECTION 4.1 Put Right upon a Final Failed Remarketing. Subject to Section 4.2 and Section 4.3,
if there has occurred a Final Failed Remarketing, then Holders of Notes forming part of any Common
Equity Unit shall have the right (the “Put Right”) to require the Company to purchase, on the
Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date, such Notes for cash (the “Put Consideration”) in an amount
equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be purchased by the Company plus the unpaid interest
thereon that has accrued to, but not including, the Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, the Put Right may be exercised only with
respect to Notes as a whole and not with respect to a portion of the Component Notes forming a part
thereof.

     SECTION 4.2 Exercise of Put Right. The Put Right of a Holder of Notes forming part of any Normal
Common Equity Units shall automatically, without any action of such Holder, be deemed to be
exercised on the Second Delayed Stock Purchase Date; provided, however, such Put Right shall be
deemed not to be exercised if (1) a Final Failed Remarketing does not occur; or (2) such Holder
duly elects Cash Settlement to apply to such Normal Common Equity Units in accordance with, and
subject to, Section 5.2(b) Stock Purchase Contract Agreement and Section 5.6 of the Pledge
Agreement (including, without limitation, the due payment, in accordance therewith, in lawful money
of the United States by certified or cashier’s check or wire transfer of immediately available
funds payable to or upon the order of the Securities Intermediary (as defined in the Stock Purchase
Contract Agreement), of the aggregate purchase price payable pursuant to the applicable Stock
Purchase Contracts of such Normal Common Equity Units). Notwithstanding anything in the Indenture
to the contrary, in no event shall a Holder be permitted to exercise the Put Right unless the
principal amount of the Notes as to which the Put Right is exercised, and the principal amount of
each tranche of Component Notes forming part of such Notes, is an integral multiple of one thousand
dollars ($1,000).

     SECTION 4.3 Pledge Agreement and Indemnification Security Agreement. The rights of each Holder of
Notes forming part of any Normal Common Equity Unit, including such Holders’ Put Rights, shall, if
such Holder is the Initial Holder (as defined in the Stock Purchase Contract Agreement) of such
Normal Common Equity Units, be subject to the security interest in such Notes in favor of the
Company provided for in the Pledge Agreement and, in the case of Notes that form part of any
Pledged Common Equity Units, the Indemnification Security Agreement.

ARTICLE V

Events of Default, Waiver and Notice

     SECTION 5.1 Events of Default.

     (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, an “Event of Default,” when
used in the Indenture with respect to the Notes, means any one or more of the following
events that shall have occurred and be continuing (it being understood that this definition of
“Event of Default” shall supersede the definition thereof set forth in Section 6.01(a) of the Base
Indenture):

21

 

     (i) the Company defaults in the payment of any installment of interest upon the Notes,
as and when the same shall become due and payable, and the continuance of such default for a
period of thirty (30) consecutive days;

     (ii) the Company defaults in the payment of the principal of the Notes as and when the
same shall become due and payable, whether at maturity, upon redemption or otherwise;

     (iii) the Company fails to observe or perform any other of its covenants or agreements
with respect to the Notes contained in the Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement
that has been expressly included in the Indenture solely for the benefit of one or more
series of Securities other than the Notes) for a period of ninety (90) days after the date
on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied and stating that
such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture, shall have been given to the
Company by the Trustee, by registered or certified mail, or to the Company and the Trustee
by the holders of at least twenty-five percent (25%) in principal amount of the Notes at the
time Outstanding;

     (iv) the entry by a court of competent jurisdiction of:

     (1) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary
proceeding under any applicable Bankruptcy Law, and such decree or order shall
remain unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60) consecutive days;

     (2) a decree or order adjudging the Company to be insolvent, or approving a
petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of the
Company, and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period
of sixty (60) consecutive days; or

     (3) a final and non-appealable order appointing a Custodian of the Company, or
of any substantial part of the property of the Company, or ordering the winding up
or liquidation of the affairs of the Company; or

     (v) the Company, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law; either (1)
commences a voluntary case or proceeding; (2) consents to the entry of an order for relief
against it in an involuntary case or proceeding; (3) files a petition or answer or consent
seeking reorganization or relief or consents to such filing or to the appointment of or
taking possession by a Custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property, and
such Custodian is not discharged within sixty (60) days; (4) makes a general assignment for
the benefit of its creditors; or (5) admits in writing its inability to pay its debts
generally as they become due.

     (b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, Section 6.01(b) of the Base
Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default
specified in  Section 5.1(a)(iv) or  Section 5.1(a)(v) of this Supplemental Indenture) with respect
to the Notes at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, either the Trustee or the Holders of
no less than twenty-five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the Notes

22

 

then Outstanding, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if by such Holders),
may declare the principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Outstanding
Notes to be due and payable immediately, and upon such declaration the same shall become and shall
be immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(a)(iv) or
Section 5.1(a)(v) of this Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes at the time Outstanding
occurs, the principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, all the Outstanding Notes
shall automatically become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act
on the part of the Trustee or any Holder.

     (c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture, Section 6.01(c) of the Base
Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. At any time after the principal of, and accrued and unpaid
interest on, the Notes shall have become due and payable pursuant to an acceleration in accordance
with Section 5.1(b) of this Supplemental Indenture, and before any judgment or decree for the
payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding, by written notice to the
Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences if: (i) the
Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of
interest on all Outstanding Notes and the principal of all Notes that shall have become due
otherwise than by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and, to the extent that such
payment is enforceable under applicable law, upon overdue installments of interest, in each case at
an interest rate, per annum, equal to the Note Interest Rate) and all amounts payable to the
Trustee under Section 7.06 of the Base Indenture; and (ii) any and all Events of Default under the
Indenture, other than the nonpayment of principal on the Notes that shall have become due solely on
account of such acceleration, shall have been remedied or waived as provided in Section 6.08 of the
Base Indenture. No such rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent
default or impair any right consequent thereon.

ARTICLE VI

Miscellaneous Provisions

     SECTION 6.1 Effectiveness. This Supplemental Indenture will become effective upon its execution

time to time reasonably request in order to assure the Trustee of the benefits of the rights

thereof. The Trustee makes no representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this

MetLife, Inc.

Series E Senior Debenture, Tranche [1/2], due 2045

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized series (the “Notes”) of the Securities (as defined in
the Base Indenture) of the Company, issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of November
9, 2001 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company,
N.A. (as successor in interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association (as successor to
Bank One Trust Company, N.A.)), as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Twenty-Second
Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2010 between the Company and the Trustee (the
“Supplemental Indenture,” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). Reference is
hereby made to the Indenture, which sets forth the rights, limitations, obligations, duties and
immunities of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. Capitalized terms used in
this Note that are not defined in this Note shall have the respective meanings ascribed to them in
the Indenture.

Interest on a Note shall accrue on the principal amount of such Note from, and including, the most
recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from,
and including, the date such Note was first issued, in each case to, but excluding, the next
Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity date of the principal of such Note, as the case may
be. The initial rate per annum at which interest accrues on the Notes is the Initial Note Interest
Rate, which rate is subject to reset in connection with a Successful Remarketing, as set forth in
the Indenture. The Interest Payment Dates are March 15, June 15, September 15, and December 15 of
each year, commencing on, and including, March 15, 2011, and the Regular Record Dates are the
immediately preceding March 1, June 1, September 1, or December 1, respectively (whether or not
such date is a Business Day). Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months.

The Company shall not have the right to redeem any Notes prior to the Redemption Trigger Date. The
Company shall have the right, at the Company’s option, at any time, and from time to time, to
redeem all or any part of the Component Notes, on any date (the “Redemption Date”) on or after the
Redemption Trigger Date (such Redemption Date to be selected by the Company), at a price payable in
cash equal to the Note Redemption Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the
Indenture, if a Redemption Date is after the Regular Record Date for a payment of interest on such
Component Note and on or before the next Interest Payment Date of such Component Note, then such
payment of interest shall, notwithstanding such redemption, be made, on such Interest Payment Date,
to the Holder of such Component Note as of the close of business on such Regular Record Date. The
Notes shall not be entitled to any sinking fund payments.

Effective at 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the
Initial Stock Purchase Date, each Note outstanding immediately prior to such time shall,
automatically and without the act of any Holder, convert into a unit consisting of two (2) tranches
(referred to as the Component Notes), with each two thousand dollars ($2,000) principal

amount of Notes thereafter consisting of (i) one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) principal amount of a
First Tranche Note and (ii) one thousand dollars ($1,000.00) principal amount of a Second Tranche
Note. The terms of each Component Note shall be identical to the terms of the Notes, except for
the Stated Maturity of their principal amount and that the interest rate for each tranche of
Component Notes shall be reset independently in connection with a Successful Remarketing, and
except as provided in Section 2.10 of the Supplemental Indenture.

This Note maybe subject to up to three (3) Remarketings, as provided in the Indenture. Subject to
the terms of the Indenture, the applicable Remarketing Agent shall, in connection with a Successful
Remarketing, reset the Component Note Interest Rate of each tranche of Component Notes (which reset
Component Note Interest Rates need not, but may, be equal to each other) to a new rate (the “Reset
Rate”), rounded to the nearest one-thousandth of one percent (0.001%) per annum, and each such
Reset Rate shall, if such Remarketing is Successful, apply to all Component Notes of the applicable
tranche (whether or not such Component Notes were included in such Remarketing) from, and
including, the Remarketing Settlement Date of such Remarketing.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal amount of, and accrued
and unpaid interest on, all of the Notes may become due and payable immediately, subject to the
terms of the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time
Outstanding to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of, among other things, adding any
provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of
any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes;
provided, however, that, among other things, no such supplemental indenture shall, without the
consent of the Holders of each Note then Outstanding and affected thereby, (i) reduce the principal
amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or (ii)
reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding Notes, the consent of whose Holders is
required for modification or amendment of the Indenture. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, on
behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, waive any past default under the Indenture with respect to
the Notes and its consequences, other than certain defaults set forth in the Indenture.

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Company, the Trustee, any
paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem and treat the registered holder hereof as the
absolute owner hereof (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of
ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of
receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and (subject to the applicable record
dates) interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor
any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the interest on this Note, or for
any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture,
against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of
the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution,
statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof,
expressly waived and released.

The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons, in principal amounts equal to an
integral multiple of two thousand dollars ($2,000) and Component Notes may be issued only in
principal amounts equal to an integral multiple of one thousand dollars ($1,000). Subject to the
terms of the Indenture, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes
of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made under the internal laws of the State of New York,
and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance with the laws of said State.
