 REVERSE OF SECURITY 

Capital One Financial Corporation 

4.985% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of the Company, of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be
issued under a Senior Indenture, dated as of November 1, 1996 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 2, 2021 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and,
together with the Base Indenture, the “Senior Indenture”) and each, duly executed and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., formerly known as The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. (as
successor to Harris Trust and Savings Bank), as trustee (hereinafter, the “Trustee”). Reference to the Senior Indenture and the Officer’s Certificate thereunder establishing the terms of this Security is hereby made for a
description of the respective rights and duties thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. This Security is one of a series designated as the “4.985%
Fixed-to-Floating Rate Senior Notes Due 2026” of the Company (hereinafter called the “Notes”), issued under the Senior Indenture. Each Holder by
accepting a Note, agrees to be bound by all terms and provisions of the Senior Indenture, as amended from time to time, applicable to the Notes. 

Neither the Senior Indenture nor the Notes limit or otherwise restrict the amount of indebtedness which may be incurred or other securities
which may be issued by the Company. The Notes issued under the Senior Indenture are direct, unsecured obligations of the Company and will mature on July 24, 2026. The Notes rank on parity with all other unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness of
the Company. 
 The Company promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security (i) from and including July 27, 2022
to, but excluding, July 24, 2025 (the “Fixed Rate Period”), at a fixed rate of 4.985% per annum, semi-annually in arrears, on January 24 and July 24 of each year (each such date, a “Fixed Rate Interest Payment
Date”), commencing on January 24, 2023 and ending on July 24, 2025, and (ii) from and including July 24, 2025 to but excluding the Stated Maturity (the “Floating Rate Period”), at an annual rate equal to
the Base Rate (as defined and computed below) plus 2.160% (the “Spread”), quarterly in arrears, on the second Business Day (as defined below) following each Floating Rate Interest Period
End-Date (as defined below) (each such Business Day, a “Floating Rate Interest Payment Date” and together with any Fixed Rate Period Payment Date, an “Interest Payment Date), until
the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. 
 Notwithstanding the above, the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date with
respect to the final Floating Rate Interest Payment Period (as defined below) shall be the Stated Maturity. 
 The Company will pay interest
to the holder in whose name this Security is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day (whether or not a Business Day (as defined below)), immediately preceding the related Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date or Floating Rate
Interest Payment Period End-Date (as defined below), as applicable (such date being referred to herein as the “Regular Record Date”), except that the Company will pay interest at the Stated

 
Maturity or, if the Notes are redeemed, the Redemption Date to the person or persons to whom principal is payable. 

During the Fixed Rate Period, interest shall be paid on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of
twelve 30-day months. If any date on which interest is payable is not a Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date shall be made on the next day that is a Business Day without any interest
or other payment in respect of the delay, with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment were due, and no interest shall accrue on the amount payable for the period from and after such Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date. 

During the Floating Rate Period, interest shall be paid on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual
number of days elapsed. 
 For purposes of this Note, and in calculating the interest to be paid during the Floating Rate Period: 

 

	 	(1)	 A “Floating Rate Interest Payment Period End-Date”
means January 24, April 24, July 24 and October 24 in each year, beginning on October 24, 2025 and ending on the Stated Maturity; provided that if any scheduled Floating Rate Interest Payment Period End-Date, other than the Stated Maturity, falls on a day that is not a Business Day, it shall be postponed to the following Business Day, except that, if that Business Day would fall in the next calendar
month, the Floating Rate Interest Payment Period End-Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the scheduled final Floating Rate Interest Payment Period
End-Date (i.e., the Stated Maturity) falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, but interest on that payment will not
accrue during the period from and after the scheduled final Floating Rate Interest Payment Period End-Date. 

  

	 	(2)	 With respect to a Floating Rate Interest Payment Date, a “Floating Rate Interest Payment
Period” means the period from and including the second most recent Floating Rate Interest Payment Period End-Date (or from and including July 24, 2025 in the case of the first Floating Rate
Interest Payment Period) to but excluding the immediately preceding Floating Rate Interest Payment Period End-Date. Notwithstanding the above: (x) the Floating Rate Interest Payment Period with respect to
the final Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (i.e., the Stated Maturity) shall be the period from and including the second-to-last Floating Rate Interest Payment Period
End-Date to but excluding the Stated Maturity and (y) with respect to such final Floating Rate Interest Payment Period, the level of SOFR (as defined below) for each calendar day in the period from and
including the Rate Cut-Off Date (as defined below) to but excluding the Stated Maturity, shall be the level of SOFR in respect of such Rate Cut-Off Date.

	 	(3)	 The “Rate Cut-Off Date” means the second U.S.
Government Securities Business Day prior to the Stated Maturity. 

  

	 	(4)	 A “U.S. Government Securities Business Day” means any day except for a Saturday, Sunday or a
day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in U.S. government securities. 

During the Floating Rate Period, the index maturity (the “Index Maturity”) for the Notes shall be daily. 

During the Floating Rate Period, the Base Rate shall be SOFR (compounded daily over a quarterly Floating Rate Interest Payment Period in
accordance with the specific formula described below). As further described below, (x) in determining the Base Rate for a U.S. Government Securities Business Day, the Base Rate generally will be the rate in respect of such day that is provided
on the following U.S. Government Securities Business Day and (y) in determining the Base Rate for any other day, such as a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, the Base Rate generally will be the rate in respect of the immediately preceding U.S.
Government Securities Business Day that is provided on the following U.S. Government Securities Business Day. 
 The “Spread” is
the number of basis points (one one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to be added to the accrued interest compounding factor for a Floating Rate Interest Payment Period. The amount of interest
accrued and payable on the Notes for the Floating Rate Interest Payment Period will be equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Notes multiplied by the product of: (x) the sum of the accrued interest compounding factor plus the Spread
for the relevant Floating Rate Interest Payment Period, multiplied by (y) the quotient obtained by dividing the actual number of calendar days in such Floating Rate Interest Payment Period by 360. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will the interest rate payable for any Floating Rate Interest Payment Period be less than zero
percent. 
 On the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date, accrued interest will be paid for the most recently completed Floating Rate Interest
Payment Period. During the Floating Rate Period, interest on the Notes will accrue from and including the most recent Floating Rate Interest Payment Period End-Date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for, or from and including July 24, 2025 in the case of the first Floating Rate Interest Payment Period. Interest will accrue to but excluding the next Floating Rate Interest Payment Period
End-Date. 
 During the Floating Rate Period, the calculation agent shall notify the paying agent of
each determination of the interest rate applicable to the notes promptly after the determination is made. 
 With respect to any Floating
Rate Interest Payment Period, the accrued interest compounding factor means the rate of return of a daily compound interest investment computed in accordance with the following formula (with the resulting percentage rounded, if necessary, to

 
the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with 0.000005 being rounded upwards to 0.00001): 
  

 
 Where: 

“d0”, for any Floating Rate Interest Payment Period, is the
number of U.S. Government Securities Business Days in the relevant Floating Rate Interest Payment Period. 

“i” is a series of whole numbers from one to d0, each
representing the relevant U.S. Government Securities Business Days in chronological order from, and including, the first U.S. Government Securities Business Day in the relevant Floating Rate Interest Payment Period. 

“SOFRi”, for any day “i” in the relevant Floating Rate Interest Payment Period, is a
reference rate equal to SOFR in respect of that day. 

“ni” is the number of calendar days in the relevant
Floating Rate Interest Payment Period on which the rate is SOFRi. 

“d” is the number of calendar days in the relevant Floating Rate Interest Payment Period. 

For these calculations, the interest rate in effect on any U.S. Government Securities Business Day will be the applicable rate
as reset on that date, except that the level of SOFR for each calendar day in the period from and including the Rate Cut-Off Date to but excluding the Maturity Date will be the level of SOFR in respect of such
Rate Cut-Off Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day is the interest rate from the immediately preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day. 

“SOFR” means, with respect to any U.S. Government Securities Business Day: 

 

	 	(1)	 the Secured Overnight Financing Rate in respect of such U.S. Government Securities Business Day as provided by
the New York Federal Reserve, as the administrator of such rate (or a successor administrator) on the New York Federal Reserve’s Website on or about 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the U.S. Government Securities Business Day immediately following
such U.S. Government Securities Business Day; or 

  

	 	(2)	 if the Secured Overnight Financing Rate in respect of such U.S. Government Securities Business Day does not
appear as specified in paragraph (1), unless both a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the Secured Overnight 

	 	
Financing Rate in respect of the last U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which such rate was published on the New York Federal Reserve’s Website; or 

 

	 	(3)	 if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred:

  

	 	•	 	 the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant
Governmental Body as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or 

 

	 	•	 	 the sum of: (a) the ISDA Fallback Rate and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or

  

	 	•	 	 the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by the Company or its designee as the
replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to any industry-accepted rate of interest as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes at
such time and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment. 

 In connection with the SOFR definition above, the
following definitions apply: 
 “Benchmark” means SOFR with the Index Maturity specified above; provided
that if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to SOFR with the Index Maturity specified above or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark
Replacement. 
 “Benchmark Replacement” means the first alternative set forth in the order presented in
clause (3) of the definition of “SOFR” that can be determined by the Company or its designee as of the Benchmark Replacement Date. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Company or its designee will have
the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time. 
 “Benchmark Replacement
Adjustment” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company or its designee as of the Benchmark Replacement Date: 

(1) the Spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such Spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative
value or zero), that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement; 

(2) if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA Fallback Rate, then the ISDA Fallback
Adjustment; 

 (3) the Spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or
zero) that has been selected by the Company or its designee giving due consideration to any industry-accepted Spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such Spread adjustment, for the replacement of the then-current Benchmark with
the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes at such time. 

“Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical,
administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definition of “Floating Rate Interest Payment Periods,” timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest and other administrative matters) that the
Company or its designee decide may be appropriate to reflect the adoption of such Benchmark Replacement in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Company or its designee decide that adoption of any portion of such market
practice is not administratively feasible or if the Company or its designee determine that no market practice for use of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner as the Company or its designee determine is reasonably necessary). 

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the
then-current Benchmark: 
 (1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition
Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide the Benchmark; or

 (2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public
statement or publication of information referenced therein. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise to the
Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination. 

“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the
then-current Benchmark: 
  

	 	(1)	 a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Benchmark
announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark, permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the
Benchmark; 

  

	 	(2)	 a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the
Benchmark, the central bank for the currency of the Benchmark, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark, a resolution authority with 

	 	
jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for the Benchmark, which states that the
administrator of the Benchmark has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the
Benchmark; or 

  

	 	(3)	 a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the
Benchmark announcing that the Benchmark is no longer representative. 

 “Corresponding
Tenor” with respect to a Benchmark Replacement means a tenor (including overnight) having approximately the same length (disregarding business day adjustment) as the applicable tenor for the then-current Benchmark. 

“ISDA Definitions” means the 2006 ISDA Definitions published by the International Swaps and Derivatives
Association, Inc. or any successor thereto, as amended or supplemented from time to time, or any successor definitional booklet for interest rate derivatives published from time to time. 

“ISDA Fallback Adjustment” means the Spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero)
that would apply for derivatives transactions referencing the ISDA Definitions to be determined upon the occurrence of an index cessation event with respect to the Benchmark for the applicable tenor. 

“ISDA Fallback Rate” means the rate that would apply for derivatives transactions referencing the ISDA
Definitions to be effective upon the occurrence of an index cessation date with respect to the Benchmark for the applicable tenor excluding the applicable ISDA Fallback Adjustment. 

“New York Federal Reserve” means the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. “New York Federal Reserve’s
Website” means the website of the New York Federal Reserve, currently at http://www.newyorkfed.org, or any successor source. 

“Reference Time” with respect to any determination of the Benchmark means the time determined by the Company
or its designee in accordance with the Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. 
 “Relevant Governmental
Body” means the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve (the “Federal Reserve Board”) and/or the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York or any successor thereto. 
 “Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement” means the Benchmark
Replacement excluding the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment. 

 If a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date
have occurred, any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company or its designee pursuant to this section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection: 
  

	 	•	 	 will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error; 

 

	 	•	 	 will be made in the Company’s or the Company’s designee’s sole discretion; and

  

	 	•	 	 notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the documentation relating to the Notes, shall become effective
without consent from the Holders of the Notes or any other party. 

 None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the
calculation agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of SOFR or the SOFR index, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the
occurrence of, any Benchmark Transition Event or related Benchmark Replacement Date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the

Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest
determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, paying agent and calculation agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any
determinations made by the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith. 

None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the calculation agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any
of its duties set forth in this note as a result of the unavailability of SOFR, the SOFR index or other applicable Benchmark Replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other
transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of this note and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, paying agent or calculation agent
shall be responsible or liable for the Company’s actions or omissions or for those of its designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Company or its designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, paying agent or calculation agent

 The Company will pay interest in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. The 

 
Company will make payments in respect of Notes in global form (including principal and interest) to the Holder thereof or a nominee of the Holder, by wire transfer of immediately available funds
as of the close of business on the date such payments are due. 
 The term “Business Day” means any day that is not a
Saturday or Sunday and that is not a day on which banks in New York, New York, Chicago, Illinois or McLean, Virginia are generally authorized or required by law or executive order to be closed. 

If the Company defaults in the payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date after taking into account any applicable grace period,
such defaulted interest shall be paid as set forth in the Senior Indenture. 
 The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund. 

The Notes are subject to defeasance pursuant to Section 402 of the Senior Indenture. 

The Notes are not convertible into common stock of the Company. 

The Company may redeem the Notes (the date of such redemption, the “Redemption Date”) at its option on July 24, 2025 (which is
the date that is one year prior to the Stated Maturity), in whole but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date upon not less
than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice given to the holders of the Notes to be redeemed. 
 If money sufficient to pay the
redemption price of and accrued interest on the Notes to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee on or before the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, then on and after the Redemption Date, interest
will cease to accrue on such Notes called for redemption and such Notes will cease to be outstanding. If the Redemption Date is not a business day, the Company will pay the redemption price on the next business day without any interest or other
payment due to the delay. 
 In case an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes, the principal
hereof may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Senior Indenture. The Senior Indenture provides that in certain circumstances such
declaration and its consequences may be waived by the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then Outstanding. However, any such consent or waiver by the Holder shall not affect any subsequent default or
impair any right consequent thereon. 
 The Senior Indenture permits the Company and the Trustee, without the consent of the Holders of the
Notes for certain situations and with the consent of not less than two-thirds of the Holders in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes of each series affected by such supplemental indenture in
other situations, to execute supplemental indentures adding to, modifying, or changing various provisions of, the Senior Indenture; provided that no such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected
thereby, shall (i) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of or any installment of interest on the Notes; (ii) reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon, or adversely

 
affect the right of repayment of any Holder; (iii) change the Place of Payment or Currency in which the principal of or interest on the Notes is payable, or impair the right to institute
suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof; (iv) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the
consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions of the Senior Indenture or certain defaults thereunder and their consequences) provided for in the Senior Indenture, or reduce the requirements of
Section 1504 for quorum or voting; or (v) modify any of the provisions of Sections 902, 513 or 1008 of the Senior Indenture, except to increase any such percentage or provide that certain other provisions of the Senior Indenture cannot be
modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Note affected thereby. 
 The Company may omit in any particular
instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Section 1005, 1006 or 1007 of the Senior Indenture, if before the time it would have to comply, the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Notes, by act of such Holders, either shall waive such compliance in such instance or generally shall have waived compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition
except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect. 

No reference herein to the Senior Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Senior Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations
of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of or interest on this Security at the respective times and at the rate herein prescribed. 

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. A Holder may exchange the Notes for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Senior Indenture. 

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of the Notes at the office or agency for said purpose of the Company, a new Note or Notes of
authorized denominations, for a like aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the transferee as provided in the Senior Indenture. No service charge shall be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. 
 Prior to due presentation of this Security for
registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee, may deem and treat the Holder hereof as the owner of this Security (whether or not any payment with respect to this Security shall be overdue), for the
purpose of receiving payment of principal of and (subject to the provisions of the Senior Indenture) interest hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not any payment with respect to this Security shall be overdue, and neither the
Company, nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or interest on this Security,
for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Senior Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, against any incorporator,
shareholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any 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 issue hereof, expressly waived and released. 

THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. 

All terms used in this Security (and not otherwise defined in this Security) that are defined in the Senior Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them
in the Senior Indenture.
