 WELLS FARGO & COMPANY, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of
Delaware (hereinafter called the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & Co., or registered assigns, the principal
sum of             DOLLARS ($            ) on the Stated Maturity Date shown above (except to the extent redeemed or repaid
prior to such date) and to pay interest, if any, on the Interest Payment Dates specified above, commencing with the Initial Interest Payment Date specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above, and at Maturity, on the principal
amount hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the Initial Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above and thereafter at the rate per annum specified above, as
determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the provisions on the reverse hereof under the heading “Determination of CD Rate”, “Determination of Commercial Paper Rate”, “Determination of EURIBOR”,
“Determination of Federal Funds Rate”, “Determination of Federal Funds (Open) Rate”, “Determination of LIBOR”, “Determination of Prime Rate”, “Determination of Treasury Rate” or “Determination
of CMT Rate,” as applicable. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Interest payable upon Maturity will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. The Regular Record Date for an Interest
Payment Date shall be the fifteenth calendar day, whether or not a Business Day, prior to such Interest Payment Date. 
 If an
Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, other than an Interest Payment Date that is also the date of Maturity, such Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the following day that is a Business Day, except that, if the
Base Rate specified above is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such following Business Day is in the next calendar month, such Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day. If the date of Maturity would fall on a day that
is not a Business Day, the payment of principal and any premium and interest shall be made on the next Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on the due date, and no additional interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the
period from and after such date of Maturity. For purposes of this Security, “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are authorized or required
by law or regulation to close in New York or London.

 Interest payments on this Security shall be the amount of interest accrued from and
including the Original Issue Date specified above or from and including the last date to which interest has been paid, or provided for, as the case may be, to but excluding, the following Interest Payment Date or the date of Maturity. This period is
referred to as an “Interest Period.” If this Security has been issued upon transfer of, in exchange for, or in replacement of, a Predecessor Security, interest on this Security shall accrue from the last Interest Payment Date to which
interest was paid on such Predecessor Security or, if no interest was paid on such Predecessor Security, from the Original Issue Date specified above. The first payment of interest on a Security originally issued and dated between a Regular Record
Date specified above and an Interest Payment Date will be due and payable on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Regular Record Date to the registered owner on such next succeeding Regular Record Date. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Addendum is attached hereto or “Other/Additional Terms” apply to this Security as
specified above, this Security shall be subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such “Other/Additional Terms.” 
 The principal (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security is payable by the Company in the Specified Currency specified above. 

Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and
may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice
whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the
Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. 
 Payment of interest on this Security, other than payments of interest at Maturity, will be paid by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto at such Person’s last address as it appears in the
Security Register or by wire transfer to such account as may have been designated by such Person. Payment of principal of and interest on this Security at Maturity will be made against presentation of this Security at the office or agency of the
Company maintained for that purpose in the City of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as this Security is a Global Security registered in the name of the Depositary, payments of principal and interest on this Security
will be made to the Depositary by wire transfer of immediately available funds. 
 The Company will pay any administrative costs
imposed by banks on payors in making payments on this Security in immediately available funds and the Holder of this Security shall pay any administrative costs imposed by banks on payees in connection with such payments. Any tax, assessment or
governmental charge imposed upon payments on this Security will be borne by the Holder of this Security.

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

 [Reverse of Note] 
 WELLS FARGO & COMPANY 
 MEDIUM-TERM FLOATING RATE NOTE, SERIES I

 Due Nine Months or More From Date of Issue 
 General 
 This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of
the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an indenture dated as of July 21, 1999, as amended or supplemented from time to time (herein called the “Indenture”), between
the Company and Citibank, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto, reference is hereby made for a statement
of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This
Security is one of the series of the Securities designated as Medium-Term Notes, Series I, of the Company, which series is limited to an aggregate principal amount of $25,000,000,000 or the equivalent thereof in one or more foreign or composite
currencies minus the aggregate principal amount of the Company’s Subordinated Medium-Term Notes, Series J which may be issued from time to time. The Securities of this series may mature at different times, bear interest, if any, at different
rates, be redeemable at different times or not at all, be repayable at the option of the Holder at different times or not at all, be issued at an original issue discount and be denominated in different currencies. 

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

Interest Rate Reset 
 The
interest rate in effect from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date specified on the face hereof shall be the Initial Interest Rate specified on the face hereof. Commencing with the Initial Interest Reset Date specified on the
face hereof following the Original Issue Date specified on the face hereof, the interest rate on this Security will be reset daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually as specified on the face hereof under “Interest Reset
Period.” Each such adjusted rate shall be applicable from and including the Interest Reset Date to which it relates to but not including the next succeeding Interest Reset Date or until Maturity, as the case may be. On each Interest Reset Date,
the rate of interest on this Security shall be the rate determined with respect to the Interest Determination Date next preceding such Interest Reset Date in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below and adjusted by the addition
or subtraction of the Spread, if any, specified on the face hereof, and/or by the multiplication by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof. 

  
 6 

 If any Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such
Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the following Business Day, except that if the Base Rate specified above is LIBOR or EURIBOR and if such following Business Day is in the next calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the immediately
preceding Business Day. 
 The amount of interest to be paid on this Security for each Interest Period will be calculated by
multiplying the principal amount of this Security by an accrued interest factor. The “accrued interest factor” will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the Interest Period. The “interest factor”
for each day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to that day: 
  

	 	•	 	 by 360, if the Base Rate is the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, EURIBOR, Federal Funds Rate, Federal Funds (Open) Rate, LIBOR, except for LIBOR
Securities for which the Index Currency is pounds sterling, or Prime Rate; 

  

	 	•	 	 by 365 (or 366 if the last day of the Interest Period falls in a leap year) if the Base Rate is LIBOR and the Index Currency is pounds sterling; or

  

	 	•	 	 by the actual number of days in the year, if the Base Rate is the Treasury Rate or the CMT Rate. 

Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, all percentages resulting from any calculation referred to herein shall be rounded, if
necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with .000005% rounded up to .00001% and all U.S. dollar amounts used in or resulting from any of the above calculations will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest cent, with
one-half cent rounded upward. If the Japanese Yen is the Index Currency, all Japanese Yen amounts used in or resulting from these calculations will be rounded downward to the next lower Japanese Yen amount. All amounts denominated in any other
currency used in or resulting from these calculations will be rounded to the nearest two decimal places in that currency, with .005 round up to .01. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate per annum hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof.
The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the foregoing on or before each Calculation Date. 
 The interest rate on this Security shall in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified by United States law of general application. 

At the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation Agent shall provide to the Holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect
and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date with respect to this Security. The Calculation Agent’s determination of any interest rate shall be final and binding in the absence of manifest
error. The Calculation Agent shall notify the Paying Agent of each determination of the interest applicable to this Security promptly after the determination is made. 

  
 7 

 A “Calculation Date”, where applicable, for any Interest Determination Date will
be the earlier of: 
  

	 	•	 	 the tenth calendar day after that Interest Determination Date or, if that day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day; or

  

	 	•	 	 the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or date of Maturity. 

Determination of CD Rate 

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the CD Rate, the interest rate per annum determined with respect to any Interest
Determination Date specified on the face hereof shall equal the rate on that date for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System in “Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates,” or any successor publication of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (“H.15(519)”) under the heading “CDs (Secondary Market).”

 The following procedures will be followed if the CD Rate cannot be determined as described above: 

 

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the CD Rate will be the rate on that
Interest Determination Date set forth in the daily update of H.15(519), available through the website of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication
(the “H.15 Daily Update”) for the Interest Determination Date for certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, under the caption “CDs (Secondary Market).” 

 

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not yet published in either H.15(519) or the H.15 Daily Update by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the
Calculation Agent will determine the CD Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar
certificates of deposit in New York, New York which may include the agents for the Securities of this series or their affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company, for negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of
deposit of major U.S. money center banks of the highest credit standing in the market for negotiable certificates of deposit with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof in an amount that is representative for
a single transaction in that market at that time. 

  

	 	•	 	 If the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, the CD Rate for that Interest Determination Date will remain the
CD Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

  
 8 

 Determination of Commercial Paper Rate 

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the Commercial Paper Rate, the interest rate per annum determined with respect to any
Interest Determination Date specified on the face hereof shall equal the Money Market Yield (as defined below), calculated as described below, of the rate on that date for U.S. dollar commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified on the face
hereof, as that rate is published in H.15(519), under the heading “Commercial Paper—Nonfinancial.” 
 The
following procedures will be followed if the Commercial Paper Rate cannot be determined as described above: 
  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Money Market
Yield of the rate on that Interest Determination Date for commercial paper of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the
applicable rate, under the heading “Commercial Paper—Nonfinancial.” 

  

	 	•	 	 If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on that Calculation Date the rate is not yet published in either H.15(519) or the H.15 Daily Update, or other
recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, then the Calculation Agent will determine the Commercial Paper Rate to be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates as of 11:00 a.m.,
New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of U.S. dollar commercial paper in New York, New York, which may include the agents for the Securities of this series or their affiliates, selected by the Calculation
Agent, after consultation with the Company, for commercial paper of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, placed for an industrial issuer whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized statistical
rating agency. 

  

	 	•	 	 If the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, the Commercial Paper Rate for the Interest Determination Date will
remain the Commercial Paper Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

“Money Market Yield” will be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula: 

 

					
	Money Market Yield =	  	 D x 360
	  	x 100
		  	360 – (D x M)	  	

 where “D” refers to the applicable per year rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and
expressed as a decimal and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the Interest Period for which interest is being calculated. 

  
 9 

 Determination of EURIBOR 
 If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is EURIBOR, the interest rate per annum determined with respect to any Interest Determination Date specified on the face hereof shall equal the rate for
deposits in euros as sponsored, calculated and published jointly by the European Banking Federation and ACI—The Financial Market Association, or any company established by the joint sponsors for purposes of compiling and publishing those rates,
for the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as that rate appears on the display on Reuters 3000 Xtra Service (“Reuters”), or any successor service, on page EURIBOR01 or any other page as may replace page EURIBOR01 on that service,
which is referred to as “Reuters Page EURIBOR01,” as of 11:00 a.m., Brussels time. 
 The following procedures will be
followed if EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above: 
  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate does not appear on Reuters Page EURIBOR01 on an Interest Determinate Date at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, the Calculation
Agent will request the principal Euro-Zone office of each of four major banks in the Euro-Zone interbank market, as selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company, to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered rate for
deposits in euros, at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the Interest Determination Date, to prime banks in the Euro-Zone interbank market for the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof commencing on the applicable Interest Reset Date,
and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1 million that is representative of a single transaction in euro, in that market at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of those
quotations. 

  

	 	•	 	 If fewer than two quotations are provided, then the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company, will select four major banks in the
Euro-Zone interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate offered by them, at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the applicable Interest Determination Date for loans in euro to leading European banks for a period of time equivalent
to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof commencing on that Interest Reset Date in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1 million. 

 

	 	•	 	 If three quotations are not provided, EURIBOR for that Interest Determination Date will remain EURIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset
Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

 “Euro-Zone”
means the region comprising member states of the European Union that have adopted the single currency in accordance with the relevant treaty of the European Union, as amended. 
 Determination of Federal Funds Rate 
 If the Base Rate specified on the face
hereof is the Federal Funds Rate, the interest rate per annum determined with respect to any Interest Determination Date specified on the face 

  
 10 

 
hereof shall equal the rate on that date for U.S. dollar federal funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Federal Funds (Effective)” as displayed on Reuters, or any successor
service, on page FEDFUNDS1 or any other page as may replace the applicable page on that service (“Reuters Page FEDFUNDS1”). 
 The following procedures will be followed if the Federal Funds Rate cannot be determined as described above: 
  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, or does not appear on Reuters Page
FEDFUNDS1, the Federal Funds Rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading
“Federal Funds (Effective).” 

  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not yet published in either H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of
displaying the applicable rate, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Federal Funds Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar
federal funds prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day following that Interest Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York, New York, which may include the agents
for the Securities of this series or their affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company. 

  

	 	•	 	 If fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, the Federal Funds Rate for that Interest
Determination Date will remain the Federal Funds Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

Determination of Federal Funds (Open) Rate 
 If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the Federal Funds (Open) Rate, the interest rate per annum determined with respect to any Interest Determination Date specified on the face hereof shall
equal the federal funds rate on that date set forth opposite the caption “Open” as displayed on Reuters, or any successor service, on page 5 or any other page as may replace the applicable page on that service (“Reuters Page 5”).

 The following procedures will be followed if the Federal Funds (Open) Rate cannot be determined as described above:

  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the Federal Funds (Open) Rate will be the rate on that
Interest Determination Date displayed on FFPREBON Index Page on Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”), which is the Federal Funds Opening Rate reported by Prebon Yamane, or any successor service, on Bloomberg. 

  
 11 

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not displayed on the FFPREBON Index Page on Bloomberg, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying
the applicable rate, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Federal Funds (Open) Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds
prior to 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York, New York, which may include the agents for the Securities of this series or their
affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company. 

  

	 	•	 	 If fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, the Federal Funds (Open) Rate for that Interest
Determination Date will be the Federal Funds (Open) Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

Determination of LIBOR 

If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is LIBOR, the interest rate per annum shall be determined by the Calculation Agent for each
Interest Determination Date specified on the face hereof as follows: 
  

	 	•	 	 “LIBOR” means, for any Interest Determination Date, the arithmetic mean of the offered rates for deposits in the Index Currency having the
index maturity specified on the face hereof, commencing on the second London Banking Day immediately following that Interest Determination Date, or, if pounds sterling is the index currency, commencing on that Interest Determination Date, that
appear on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date, if at least two offered rates appear on the Designated LIBOR Page, provided that if the specified Designated LIBOR Page by its terms provides
only for a single rate, that single rate will be used. 

  

	 	•	 	 If (i) fewer than two offered rates appear or (ii) no rate appears and the Designated LIBOR Page by its terms provides only for a single
rate, then the Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of each of four major banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for deposits in
the Index Currency for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof commencing on the second London Banking Day immediately following the Interest Determination Date or, if pounds sterling is the Index Currency, commencing on that
Interest Determination Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative of a single transaction in that Index Currency
in that market at that time. 

  
 12 

	 	•	 	 If at least two quotations are provided, LIBOR determined on that Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of those quotations. If fewer
than two quotations are provided, LIBOR will be determined for the applicable Interest Reset Date as the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., or some other time specified on the face hereof, in the applicable principal
financial center for the country of the Index Currency on that Interest Determination Date, by three major banks in that principal financial center selected by the Calculation Agent for loans in the Index Currency to leading European banks, having
the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof and in a principal amount that is representative of a single transaction in that Index Currency in that market at that time. 

 

	 	•	 	 If the banks so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, LIBOR for that Interest Determination Date will remain LIBOR for
the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

 The “Index Currency” means the currency specified on the face hereof as the currency for which LIBOR will be calculated or, if the euro is substituted for that currency, the Index Currency will
be the euro. If no currency is specified on the face hereof, the Index Currency will be U.S. dollars. 
 “Designated LIBOR
Page” means the display on Reuters, or any successor service, on page LIBOR01, or any other page as may replace that page on that service, for the purpose of displaying the London Interbank rates for the applicable Index Currency. 

“London Banking Day” means any day on which dealings in deposits in the Index Currency specified above are transacted in the
London interbank market. 
 Determination of Prime Rate 
 If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the Prime Rate, the interest rate per annum determined with respect to any Interest Determination Date specified on the face hereof shall equal the rate on
that date as published in H.15(519) prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, under the heading “Bank Prime Loan.” 
 The following procedures will be followed if the Prime Rate cannot be determined as described above: 
  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is not published in H.15(519) prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, then the Prime Rate will be the rate
on that Interest Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source used for the purposes of displaying the applicable rate, under the heading “Bank Prime Loan.”

  

	 	•	 	 If the rate is not published in either H.15(519) or the H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the Calculation Date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the Prime Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen USPRIME 1 Page, as defined below, as that
bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as in effect as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, for that Interest Determination Date. 

  
 13 

	 	•	 	 If fewer than four rates for that Interest Determination Date appear on the Reuters Screen USPRIME 1 Page by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Calculation Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Prime Rate to be the arithmetic mean of the prime rates quote or base lending rates furnished in New York City by three substitute major banks or trust companies (all organized under the
laws of the United States or any of its states and having total equity capital of at least $500,000,000), selected by the Calculation Agent after consultation with the Company. 

 

	 	•	 	 If the banks selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, the Prime Rate for that Interest Determination Date will remain the
Prime Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

 “Reuters Screen USPRIME 1 Page” means the display designated as page “USPRIME 1” on the Reuters Monitory Money Rate Service or any successor service, or any other page as may replace
the USPRIME 1 Page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major U.S. banks. 
 Determination of
Treasury Rate 
 If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the Treasury Rate, the interest rate per annum determined
with respect to any Interest Determination Date specified on the face hereof means: 
  

	 	•	 	 the rate from the auction held on the applicable Interest Determination Date, referred to as the “auction,” of direct obligations of the
United States, which are commonly referred to as “Treasury Bills,” having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as that rate appears under the caption “INVESTMENT RATE” on the display on Reuters, or any successor
service, on page USAUCTION 10 or any other page as may replace page USAUCTION 10 on that service, referred to as “Reuters Page USAUCTION 10,” or page USAUCTION 11 or any other page as may replace page USAUCTION 11 on that service, referred
to as “Reuters Page USAUCTION 11”; or 

  

	 	•	 	 if the rate described in the first bullet point is not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date, the bond equivalent yield
of the rate for the applicable Treasury Bills as published in the H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury
Bills/Auction High”; or 

  

	 	•	 	 if the rate described in the second bullet point is not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, the bond
equivalent yield of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury Bills, announced by the United States Department of the Treasury; or 

  
 14 

	 	•	 	 if the rate referred to in the third bullet point is not announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held, the
bond equivalent yield of the rate on the applicable Interest Determination Date of Treasury Bills having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury
Bills/Secondary Market”; or 

  

	 	•	 	 if the rate referred to in the fourth bullet point is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, the rate on
the applicable Interest Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government
Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market”; or 

  

	 	•	 	 if the rate referred to in the fifth bullet point is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, the rate on
the applicable Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the bond equivalent yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Interest
Determination Date, of three primary U.S. government securities dealers, which may include the agents for the Securities of this series or their affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent after consultation with the Company, for the issue of
Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof; or 

  

	 	•	 	 if the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as set forth above, the Treasury Rate for that Interest Determination Date will be the
Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

 The “bond equivalent yield” means a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage: 

 

					
	bond equivalent yield =	  	 D x N
	  	x 100
		  	360 – (D x M)	  	

 where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank discount basis,
“N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the Interest Period for which interest is being calculated. 
 Determination of CMT Rate 
 If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is
the CMT Rate, the interest rate per annum determined with respect to any Interest Determination Date specified on the face hereof shall equal the rate displayed on the Designated CMT Reuters Page, as defined below, under the caption “. . .
Treasury Constant Maturities . . . Federal Reserve Board Release H.15 . . . Mondays Approximately 3:45 p.m.,” under the column for the Designated CMT Maturity Index, as defined below, for: 

  
 15 

 (i) the rate on that Interest Determination Date, if the Designated CMT
Reuters Page is FRBCMT, and 
 (ii) the week or the month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week in
which the related Interest Determination Date occurs, if the Designated CMT Reuters Page is FEDCMT. 
 The following procedures
will be used if the CMT Rate cannot be determined as described above: 
  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate is no longer displayed on the relevant page, or if not displayed by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation
Date, then the CMT Rate will be the Treasury Constant Maturity Rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as published in the relevant H.15(519). 

  

	 	•	 	 If the above rate described in the first bullet point is no longer published, or if not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related
Calculation Date, then the CMT Rate will be the Treasury Constant Maturity Rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index or other U.S. Treasury rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index on the Interest Determination Date as may then be published by
either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate formerly displayed on the Designated CMT Reuters Page and published in the
relevant H.15(519). 

  

	 	•	 	 If the information described in the second bullet point is not provided by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the
Calculation Agent will determine the CMT Rate to be a yield to maturity, based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market closing offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date,
reported, according to their written records, by three leading primary U.S. government securities dealers (each a “reference dealer”) in New York, New York, which may include the agents for the Securities of this series or their
affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent as described in the following sentence. The Calculation Agent will select five reference dealers, after consultation with the Company, and will eliminate the highest quotation or, in the event of
equality, one of the highest, and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for the most recently issued direct noncallable fixed rate obligations of the United States, which are commonly referred to as “Treasury
notes,” with an original maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity Index, a remaining term to maturity of no more than 1 year shorter than the Designated CMT Maturity Index and in a principal amount that is representative for a
single transaction in the securities in that market at that time. If two Treasury notes with an original maturity as described above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Designated CMT Maturity Index, the quotes for the Treasury
note with the shorter remaining term to maturity will be used. 

  
 16 

	 	•	 	 If the Calculation Agent cannot obtain three Treasury notes quotations as described in the immediately preceding bullet point, the Calculation Agent
will determine the CMT Rate to be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date of three reference dealers in New
York, New York, selected using the same method described in the immediately preceding bullet point, for Treasury notes with an original maturity equal to the number of years closest to but not less than the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a
remaining term to maturity closest to the Designated CMT Maturity Index and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in that market at that time. 

 

	 	•	 	 If three or four, and not five, of the reference dealers are quoting as described above, the CMT Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the offer
prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of those quotes will be eliminated. 

  

	 	•	 	 If fewer than three reference dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described above, the CMT Rate for that Interest Determination
Date will remain the CMT Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if none, the rate of interest payable will be the Initial Interest Rate. 

“Designated CMT Reuters Page” means the display on Reuters, or any successor service, on the page designated on the face hereof
or any other page as may replace that page on that service for the purpose of displaying Treasury Constant Maturities as reported in H.15(519). If no page is specified on the face hereof, the Designated CMT Reuters Page will be FEDCMT, for the most
recent week. 
 “Designated CMT Maturity Index” means the original period to maturity of the U.S. Treasury securities
which is either 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 20 or 30 years, as specified on the face hereof, for which the CMT Rate will be calculated. If no maturity is specified on the face hereof, the Designated CMT Maturity Index will be two years. 

Events of Default 
 If an
Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the
Indenture. 
 Modification and Waivers 
 The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities

may be waived under the Indenture by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this
Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Security. 
 Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance 

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness on this Security and (b) certain
restrictive covenants and certain Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security. 
 Redemption 
 If so provided on the face hereof, the Company may at its
option redeem this Security in whole or in part in increments of $1,000 (provided that any remaining principal amount of this Security shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination hereof) on or after the date or dates designated as the
Redemption Date(s) on the face hereof at 100% of the unpaid principal amount hereof or the portion thereof redeemed, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date or, if a Redemption Price other than 100% of the principal amount to

by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at least 30 days and not more than 60 days prior to the applicable Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, the Company shall issue a new Security or Securities for the
unredeemed portion hereof in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. If less than all of the Securities of this series with like tenor and terms are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee
by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of the Securities of this series held by a Holder equal to an authorized denomination. If this
Security is a Global Security and if less than all of the Securities of this series are to be redeemed, the redemption shall be made in accordance with the Depositary’s customary procedures. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the
Redemption Price, on and after the applicable Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on this Security or portion hereof called for redemption.

 Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, this Security
will not be entitled to any sinking fund. 
 Repayment 
 If so provided on the face hereof, this Security will be repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date at the option of the Holder, in whole or in part and in increments of $1,000 (provided that any

 18 

 
less than the minimum authorized denomination hereof), on or after the date designated as an Optional Repayment Date on the face hereof at 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, plus accrued
interest, if any, to the Repayment Date or, if a Repayment Price other than 100% of the principal amount to be repaid is specified on the face hereof, at the Repayment Price specified in the Addendum attached hereto. In order for this Security to be
repaid, the Paying Agent must receive at least 30 days but not more than 45 days prior to the Optional Repayment Date this Security with the form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” on the reverse of this Security duly completed, or a

the fifth Business Day after the date of that telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. 
 Any repayment option
exercised by the Holder of this Security shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised for less than the entire principal amount of this Security, but in that event the principal amount of this Security remaining outstanding after
repayment must be equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof. Upon any partial repayment, this Security shall be cancelled and a new Security or Securities for the remaining principal amount hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of
this Security. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Repayment Price, on and after the applicable Repayment Date interest will cease to accrue on this Security or portion hereof requested to be repaid.

3.3           Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser hereby makes the following representations and warranties to the Sellers:

 

  

7

  

 

3.3.1           The Purchaser has the requisite power and authority to enter into and perform this Agreement and to purchase the shares being sold to it hereunder.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such Purchaser and the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action, and no further consent or authorization of such Purchaser is required.  This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Purchaser and constitutes, or shall constitute when executed and delivered, a valid and binding obligation of such Purchaser enforceable against such Purchaser in accordance with the terms thereof.

3.3.2           The Purchaser is, and will be at the time of the execution of this Agreement, an “accredited investor”, as such term is defined in Regulation D promulgated by the Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), is experienced in investments and business matters, has made investments of a speculative nature and has purchased securities of United States publicly-owned companies in the past and, with its representatives, has such knowledge and experience in financial, tax and other business matters as to enable such Purchaser to utilize the information made available by the Company to evaluate the merits and risks of and to make an informed investment decision with respect to the proposed purchase, which represents a speculative investment.  The Purchaser has the authority and is duly and legally qualified to purchase and own shares of the Company.  The Purchaser is able to bear the risk of such investment for an indefinite period and to afford a complete loss thereof.  The information set forth on the signature page hereto regarding the Purchaser is accurate.

3.3.3           On the Closing Date, such Purchaser will purchase the Acquired Shares pursuant to the terms of this Agreement for its own account for investment only and not with a view toward, or for resale in connection with, the public sale or any distribution thereof.

3.3.4           The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Acquired Shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws, by reason of their issuance in a transaction that does not require registration under the 1933 Act (based in part on the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser contained herein), and that such Acquired Shares must be held indefinitely unless a subsequent disposition is registered under the 1933 Act or any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from such registration.  In any event, and subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, the Purchaser may enter into lawful hedging transactions in the course of hedging the position they assume and the Purchaser may also enter into lawful short positions or other derivative transactions relating to the Acquired Shares, or interests in the Acquired Shares, and deliver the Acquired Shares, or interests in the Acquired Shares, to close out their short or other positions or otherwise settle other transactions, or loan or pledge the Acquired Shares, or interests in the Acquired Shares, to third parties who in turn may dispose of these Acquired Shares.

3.3.5           The Acquired Shares shall bear the following or similar legend:

“THE ISSUANCE AND SALE OF THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, NOR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.  THE SECURITIES MAY NOT BE OFFERED FOR SALE, SOLD, TRANSFERRED OR ASSIGNED (I) IN THE ABSENCE OF (A) AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT FOR THE SECURITIES UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR (B) AN OPINION OF COUNSEL (WHICH COUNSEL SHALL BE SELECTED BY THE HOLDER), IN A GENERALLY ACCEPTABLE FORM, THAT REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER SAID ACT OR (II) UNLESS SOLD PURSUANT TO RULE 144 OR RULE 144A UNDER SAID ACT.  NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, THE SECURITIES MAY BE PLEDGED IN CONNECTION WITH A BONA FIDE MARGIN ACCOUNT OR OTHER LOAN OR FINANCING ARRANGEMENT SECURED BY THE SECURITIES.”

3.3.6           The offer to sell the Acquired Shares was directly communicated to such Purchaser by the Company.  At no time was such Purchaser presented with or solicited by any leaflet, newspaper or magazine article, radio or television advertisement, or any other form of general advertising or solicited or invited to attend a promotional meeting otherwise than in connection and concurrently with such communicated offer.

 

3.3.7           Such Purchaser represents that the foregoing representations and warranties are true and correct as of the date hereof and, unless such Purchaser otherwise notifies the Company prior to the Closing Date shall be true and correct as of the Closing Date.
