REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

November 26, 2013 
 Wells
Fargo Securities, LLC 
 550 South Tryon Street, 5th Floor 

Charlotte, North Carolina 28202 

Attn: Transaction Management 
  

Ladies and Gentlemen: 

Wells Fargo & Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to exchange its 4.480% Subordinated
Notes due January 16, 2024 (the “Initial Securities”) issued in connection with the exchange offer (the “Initial Exchange Offer”) pursuant to the Confidential Offering Circular, dated November 6, 2013, for Exchange
Securities (as defined herein). The Initial Securities were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of August 30, 1999, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor in interest to The Bank of New York
Trust Company, N.A., as successor in interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as successor in interest to Bank One Trust Company, N.A., as successor in interest to The First National Bank of Chicago), as Trustee (the
“Indenture”). The Company agrees with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (the “Dealer Manager”), the dealer manager appointed by the Company in respect of the Initial Exchange Offer pursuant to the Dealer Manager Agreement, dated
November 6, 2013 by and between the Company and the Dealer Manager in connection with the Initial Exchange Offer (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”) for the benefit of the holders of the Initial Securities (collectively, the
“Holders”), as follows: 
 1.           Registered
Exchange Offer.  The Company shall, at its own cost, not later than 120 days after the date of original issue of the Initial Securities (the “Issue Date”), prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to a proposed offer (the
“Registered Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to
issue and deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the “Exchange Securities”) of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to
the Initial Securities (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Initial Securities
and the Exchange Securities are herein collectively called the “Securities.” The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act within 180
days, of the Issue Date and shall keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 30 days (or 

 
longer, if required by applicable law) after the date that notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the “Exchange Offer Registration
Period”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the Registered Exchange Offer no later than the 225th day after the Issue Date (such 225th day, the “Consummation Deadline”). 

If the Company effects the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company will be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer
promptly following 30 days after the commencement thereof provided that the Company has accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Registered Exchange Offer. 

Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly
commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities electing to exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder
is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder’s business and has no arrangements with any person to participate in the distribution of the
Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the
Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States. 

The Company acknowledges that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the
Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, each Holder that is a broker-dealer electing to exchange Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange
Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a prospectus containing substantially the information set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures”
section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging
Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for
such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an
Exchanging Dealer, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers have sold all Exchange Securities held by them (unless such period is extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below). 

In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall: 

  
 2 

 (a)        mail to each
Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents; 

(b)        keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than
30 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders; 

(c)        utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered
Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee; 

(d)        permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time
prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 

(e)        otherwise comply in all material respects with all
applicable laws. 
 As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall: 

(x)        accept for exchange all the Securities validly tendered and
not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; 

(y)        deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all the Initial
Securities so accepted for exchange; and 
 (z)        cause the
Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of the Initial Securities, Exchange Securities equal in principal amount to the Initial Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 

Interest on each Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer will accrue from the last interest payment
date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from the date of original issue of the Initial Securities. 

Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that at the time of
the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with any person to
participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an “affiliate,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company or if it is
an affiliate, such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to
engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of

  
 3 

 
market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement
and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and
any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any
prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

2.           Shelf Registration.    If,
(i) because of any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, the Company determines that it is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 1 hereof or
(ii) the Registered Exchange Offer is not consummated within 225 days of the Issue Date, (each of the matters described in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Shelf Registration Triggering Event”): 

  (a)        The Company shall, at its cost, as promptly as
practicable after, but in no event later than 60 days after, a Shelf Triggering Event (a “Filing Deadline”) file with the Commission and thereafter shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes
effective automatically upon filing) no later than 120 days after such Shelf Triggering Event (such 120 day, an “Effectiveness Deadline”) a registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance
with the methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the “Shelf Registration”); provided, however, that no Holder shall be entitled to have the Securities held
by it covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. 

  (b)        The Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of one year (or for such longer period if
extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below) from the Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer
restricted securities (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor rule thereof). 

  (c)        Notwithstanding any other provisions of this
Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and 

  
 4 

 
any amendment or supplement thereto, as of its respective effective date, (i) to comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and
(ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. 
 3.            Registration
Procedures.  In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall apply: 

  (a)        The Company shall (i) cause to be
furnished to the Dealer Manager, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein, which documents will be subject to the
reasonable review and comment by the Dealer Manager (provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company to furnish drafts of its periodic, current or other reports filed under the Exchange Act in advance of such
filing); (ii) include the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the
“Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange
Offer; (iii) include within the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” which shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff
of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of
Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”); and (iv) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include in the prospectus included in the Shelf
Registration Statement (or, if permitted by Commission Rule 430B(b), in a prospectus supplement that becomes a part thereof pursuant to Commission Rule 430B(f) that is delivered to any Holder pursuant to Section 3(d) and (f), the names of the
Holders, who propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as selling security holders. 

  (b)        The Company shall give written notice to the
Dealer Manager, the Holders of the Securities (in case of any Shelf Registration Statement) and any Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Registered
Exchange Offer (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 

(i)        when the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto
has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective; 

  
 5 

 (ii)       of any request by
the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; 

(iii)       of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, or the issuance by the Commission of a notification of objection to the use of the form on which the Registration Statement has been filed, and of
the happening of any event that causes the Company to become an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Commission Rule 405; 

(iv)       of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and 

(v)       of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make
changes in the Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. 

  (c)         The Company shall make every reasonable
best effort to obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. 

  (d)         The Company shall, during the Shelf
Registration Period, cause to be delivered to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Shelf
Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request in writing. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto
by each of the selling Holders of the Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement. 

  (e)         The Company shall deliver to the Dealer
Manager, any Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and any other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such persons may reasonably request in writing. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto,
if necessary, by the Dealer Manager, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Securities covered by the
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement. 

  
 6 

  (f)        Prior to any public offering of the Securities,
pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in connection with the registration or
qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any and all other acts or things necessary
or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction
where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

  (g)        The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of
the Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as
the Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. 

  (h)        Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated
by paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the
Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Dealer Manager, the
Holders of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been
made, then the Dealer Manager, the Holders of the Securities and any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 2(b) above
and the Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Dealer Manager, the Holders
of the Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(h). During the period during which the Company is required to maintain an effective Shelf
Registration Statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will, prior to the three-year expiration of that Shelf Registration Statement file, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective
automatically upon filing) within a period that avoids any interruption in the ability of Holders of Securities covered by the expiring Shelf Registration Statement to make registered dispositions, a new registration statement relating to the
Securities, which shall be deemed the “Shelf Registration Statement” for purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 7 

  (i)        Not later than the effective date of the
applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP number for the Initial Securities or the Exchange Securities, as the case may be, and provide the applicable trustee with printed certificates for the Initial Securities or the
Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 

  (j)        The Company will comply in all material
respects with all rules and regulations of the Commission to the extent and so long as they are applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf Registration and will make generally available to its security holders (or otherwise provide in
accordance with Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal
year) beginning with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period; provided, however, that compliance by the Company
with the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act shall satisfy the Company’s obligations under this Section 3(b)(1). 

  (k)        The Company shall cause the Indenture to be
qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee
under the Indenture, the Company shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. 

  (l)         The Company may require each Holder of
Securities to be sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the
Shelf Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. 

  (m)       Subject to Section 9, the Company shall enter
into such customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities shall reasonably request in order to
facilitate the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration. 

  (n)        In the case of any underwritten Shelf
Registration, the Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such
underwriter all relevant financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company and (ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably
requested by any such underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of
Section 11 of the Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing 

  
 8 

 
inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by and on behalf of such parties as described in Section 4 hereof. 

  (o)        If a Registered Exchange Offer is to be
consummated, upon delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Securities, the Company shall cancel, or cause to be cancelled, the Initial Securities
so exchanged for the Exchange Securities; in no event shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 

  (p)        The Company shall cooperate and assist in any
filings required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter (including any “qualified independent underwriter”) that is
required to be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of FINRA. 

  (q)        The Company shall use its reasonable best
efforts to take all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 

  (r)        The Company will use its reasonable best
efforts to, if the Initial Securities have been rated prior to the initial sale of such Initial Securities, confirm such ratings will apply to the Securities covered by a Registration Statement. 

4.           Market-Making
Prospectus.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if, on the 180th day after the Issue Date, (i) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not become effective with the Commission and
(ii) a Shelf Registration Statement has not become effective with the Commission, then the Company shall file with the Commission a prospectus in connection with market-making activities with respect to the Initial Securities (the
“Market-Making Prospectus”) on the 180th day after the Issue Date utilizing one of its currently effective registration statements on Form S-3. The Company further agrees that all Exchanging Dealers shall be authorized to deliver such
Market-Making Prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available) for so long as such Exchanging Dealers may be required to deliver a prospectus in connection with market making activities with respect to the Initial Securities. 

5.           Registration Expenses.  The Company shall
bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 through 4 hereof (including the reasonable fees and expenses, if any, of counsel for the Dealer Manager incurred in connection with the
Registered Exchange Offer), whether or not the Registered Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration is filed or becomes effective, and, in the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby for the
reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Initial Securities covered thereby to act as counsel for the Holders of the Initial Securities in connection
therewith. 
 6.           Indemnification. 

  
 9 

  (a)        The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of either Section 15 the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act (each Holder, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions
in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
or otherwise, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Securities Act Rule 433 (“Issuer FWP”), relating to a Shelf Registration, or any Market-Making Prospectus, or arising out of or based
upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such Indemnified Party to the extent set forth below, as
incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. 

  (b)        Each Holder of the Securities, severally and
not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs a Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity, from the Company to each Holder, but only with reference to written information relating to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such
Holder for use in the preparation of the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have. 

  (c)        Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under this Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under clause (a) or
(b) of this Section 6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise
than under clause (a) or (b) of this Section 6. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate therein, and to the extent that it shall wish, jointly, with any other indemnifying party similarly 

  
 10 

 
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the
indemnifying party). In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to obtain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and
the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified
party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate identified firm (in addition to any identified local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and
that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the parties to be indemnified pursuant paragraph (a) of this Section 6 in the case of parties to be indemnified pursuant
to paragraph (a) and by the Company in the case of parties to be indemnified pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 6. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its prior
written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified
party is a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party. 

  (d)        To the extent the indemnification provided for
in Section 6(a) or 6(b) hereof is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, from the exchange of the Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is
not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the
indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party
or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission

  
 11 

 
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Holder or other indemnified party, as the case may be, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be
deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 6(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds
the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

  (e)        The agreements contained in this Section 6
shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified
party. 
 7.           Additional Interest Under Certain
Circumstances.    (a) Additional interest (the “Additional Interest”) with respect to the Initial Securities shall be assessed as follows if (each such event in clauses (i) through (iv) below a
“Registration Default”): 
 (i)          an
Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been filed within 120 days of the Issue Date; 

(ii)         an Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not
been declared effective within 180 days of the Issue Date; 

(iii)        neither the Registered Exchange Offer is consummated,
nor, if required in lieu thereof, has the Shelf Registration Statement become effective, within 225 days of the Issue Date; 

(iv)        after either the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or
the Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be or is not effective; or (B) such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be or is not usable (except as permitted
in paragraph (b)) in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein because either (1) any event occurs as a result of which the related prospectus forming part of such Registration Statement would
include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, (2) it shall be necessary to amend such
Registration Statement or supplement the related prospectus, to comply with the 

  
 12 

 
Securities Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, or (3) such Registration Statement is a Shelf Registration Statement that has expired before a replacement Shelf
Registration Statement has become effective, 
 then Additional Interest shall accrue on the Initial Securities over and above the interest
set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.25% per annum, plus an
additional 0.25% per annum from and during any period in which a Registration Default has continued for more than 90 days, up to a maximum rate of 0.50% per annum. In no event will Additional Interest accrue on the Initial Securities at a
rate exceeding 0.50% per annum. 
   (b)        A
Registration Default referred to in Section 7(a)(iv) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely
as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs
to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events, with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in
the case of clause (y) either there has occurred a business development or event and the Company determines in its reasonable judgment that disclosure of such development or event is not in the best interest of the Company or the Company is
proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; provided, however, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a period in excess of 90 days
(whether or not consecutive) during any 365-day period Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured. 

  (c)        Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant
to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 7(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Initial Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the
applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of
a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360. 

  (d)        “Transfer Restricted Securities”
means each Security until (i) the date on which such Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) following the
exchange by a broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer of an Initial Security for an Exchange Security, the date on which such Exchange Security is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a
copy of the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, (iii) the date on which such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the 

  
 13 

 
Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iv) the date on which such Initial Securities is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act by a person that is not an affiliate of the Company without regard to volume, manner of sale or current public information requirements. 

8.           Rules 144 and 144A.  The Company shall
use its reasonable best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any
Holder of Initial Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Initial
Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Initial Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A
(including the requirements of Rule 144A (d)(4)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 

9.           Underwritten Registrations.  Each Holder
of the Transfer Restricted Securities hereby agrees with the Company and each other Holder that no Holder of the Transfer Restricted Securities may participate in any underwritten offering hereunder unless the Company gives its prior written consent
to such underwritten offering (which it is under no obligations to do). If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and
manager or managers that will administer the offering (“Managing Underwriters”) will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering and shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Company. 
 No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such
person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and
executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 

10.         Miscellaneous. 

  (a)        In the event that any provision hereof shall be
determined to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such determination shall not affect such provision in any other respect or any other provision hereof, which shall remain in full force and effect. 

  (b)        Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, whenever notice is required by the provisions of this Agreement to be given to: 

(1)        a Holder of the Securities, such notice shall be in
writing addressed to the most current address given by such Holder to the Company;

 ANNEX A 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that
it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an
“underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for
Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date (as defined
herein), it will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See “Plan of Distribution.” 

 ANNEX B 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Initial
Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See “Plan of
Distribution.” 

 ANNEX C 

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that
it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities
received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date, it will
make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus meeting
the requirements of the Securities Act when it resells such Exchange Securities(1) 

The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received
by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or
a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or
dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own
account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale
of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by
delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 

For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any
amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Exchange Offer (including the reasonable and documented expenses of
one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under
the Securities Act.

page of the Exchange Offer prospectus.

WELLS FARGO & COMPANY 

5.606% Subordinated Notes due January 15, 2044 

REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT 

November 26, 2013 
 Wells
Fargo Securities, LLC 
 550 South Tryon Street, 5th Floor 

Charlotte, North Carolina 28202 

Attn: Transaction Management 
  

Ladies and Gentlemen: 

Wells Fargo & Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to exchange its 5.606% Subordinated
Notes due January 15, 2044 (the “Initial Securities”) issued in connection with the exchange offer (the “Initial Exchange Offer”) pursuant to the Confidential Offering Circular, dated November 6, 2013, for Exchange
Securities (as defined herein). The Initial Securities were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of August 30, 1999, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as successor in interest to The Bank of New York
Trust Company, N.A., as successor in interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association, as successor in interest to Bank One Trust Company, N.A., as successor in interest to The First National Bank of Chicago), as Trustee (the
“Indenture”). The Company agrees with Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (the “Dealer Manager”), the dealer manager appointed by the Company in respect of the Initial Exchange Offer pursuant to the Dealer Manager Agreement, dated
November 6, 2013 by and between the Company and the Dealer Manager in connection with the Initial Exchange Offer (the “Dealer Manager Agreement”) for the benefit of the holders of the Initial Securities (collectively, the
“Holders”), as follows: 
 1.         Registered Exchange
Offer.  The Company shall, at its own cost, not later than 120 days after the date of original issue of the Initial Securities (the “Issue Date”), prepare and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
“Commission”) a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect to a proposed offer (the
“Registered Exchange Offer”) to the Holders of Transfer Restricted Securities (as defined in Section 6 hereof), who are not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer, to issue and
deliver to such Holders, in exchange for the Initial Securities, a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities (the “Exchange Securities”) of the Company issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the
Initial Securities (except for the transfer restrictions relating to the Initial Securities and the provisions relating to the matters described in Section 6 hereof) that would be registered under the Securities Act. The Initial Securities and
the Exchange Securities are herein collectively called the “Securities.” The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Exchange Offer Registration Statement to become effective under the Securities Act within 180 days, of
the Issue Date and shall keep the Exchange Offer Registration Statement effective for not less than 30 days (or 

 
longer, if required by applicable law) after the date that notice of the Registered Exchange Offer is mailed to the Holders (such period being called the “Exchange Offer Registration
Period”). The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to consummate the Registered Exchange Offer no later than the 225th day after the Issue Date (such 225th day, the “Consummation Deadline”). 

If the Company effects the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company will be entitled to close the Registered Exchange Offer
promptly following 30 days after the commencement thereof provided that the Company has accepted all the Initial Securities theretofore validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Registered Exchange Offer. 

Following the declaration of the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly
commence the Registered Exchange Offer, it being the objective of such Registered Exchange Offer to enable each Holder of Transfer Restricted Securities electing to exchange the Initial Securities for Exchange Securities (assuming that such Holder
is not an affiliate of the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, acquires the Exchange Securities in the ordinary course of such Holder’s business and has no arrangements with any person to participate in the distribution of the
Exchange Securities and is not prohibited by any law or policy of the Commission from participating in the Registered Exchange Offer) to trade such Exchange Securities from and after their receipt without any limitations or restrictions under the
Securities Act and without material restrictions under the securities laws of the several states of the United States. 

The Company acknowledges that, pursuant to current interpretations by the Commission’s staff of Section 5 of the
Securities Act, in the absence of an applicable exemption therefrom, each Holder that is a broker-dealer electing to exchange Securities, acquired for its own account as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, for Exchange
Securities (an “Exchanging Dealer”), is required to deliver a prospectus containing substantially the information set forth in (a) Annex A hereto on the cover, (b) Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures”
section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section, and (c) Annex C hereto in the “Plan of Distribution” section of such prospectus in connection with a sale of any such Exchange Securities received by such Exchanging
Dealer pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer. 
 The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Exchange
Offer Registration Statement effective and to amend and supplement the prospectus contained therein, in order to permit such prospectus to be lawfully delivered by all persons subject to the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act for
such period of time as such persons must comply with such requirements in order to resell the Exchange Securities; provided, however, that (i) in the case where such prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto must be delivered by an
Exchanging Dealer, such period shall be the lesser of 180 days and the date on which all Exchanging Dealers have sold all Exchange Securities held by them (unless such period is extended pursuant to Section 3(j) below). 

In connection with the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company shall: 

  
 2 

 (a)        mail to each
Holder a copy of the prospectus forming part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, together with an appropriate letter of transmittal and related documents; 

(b)        keep the Registered Exchange Offer open for not less than
30 days (or longer, if required by applicable law) after the date notice thereof is mailed to the Holders; 

(c)        utilize the services of a depositary for the Registered
Exchange Offer with an address in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which may be the Trustee or an affiliate of the Trustee; 

(d)        permit Holders to withdraw tendered Securities at any time
prior to the close of business, New York time, on the last business day on which the Registered Exchange Offer shall remain open; and 

(e)        otherwise comply in all material respects with all
applicable laws. 
 As soon as practicable after the close of the Registered Exchange Offer, the Company
shall: 
 (x)        accept for exchange all the Securities validly
tendered and not withdrawn pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer; 

(y)        deliver to the Trustee for cancellation all the Initial
Securities so accepted for exchange; and 
 (z)        cause the
Trustee to authenticate and deliver promptly to each Holder of the Initial Securities, Exchange Securities equal in principal amount to the Initial Securities of such Holder so accepted for exchange. 

Interest on each Exchange Security issued pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer will accrue from the last interest payment
date on which interest was paid on the Initial Securities surrendered in exchange therefor or, if no interest has been paid on the Initial Securities, from the date of original issue of the Initial Securities. 

Each Holder participating in the Registered Exchange Offer shall be required to represent to the Company that at the time of
the consummation of the Registered Exchange Offer (i) any Exchange Securities received by such Holder will be acquired in the ordinary course of business, (ii) such Holder will have no arrangements or understanding with any person to
participate in the distribution of the Securities or the Exchange Securities within the meaning of the Securities Act, (iii) such Holder is not an “affiliate,” as defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act, of the Company or if it is
an affiliate, such Holder will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable, (iv) if such Holder is not a broker-dealer, that it is not engaged in, and does not intend to
engage in, the distribution of the Exchange Securities and (v) if such Holder is a broker-dealer, that it will receive Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Initial Securities that were acquired as a result of

  
 3 

 
market-making activities or other trading activities and that it will be required to acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. 

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, the Company will ensure that (i) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement
and any amendment thereto and any prospectus forming part thereof and any supplement thereto complies in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, (ii) any Exchange Offer Registration Statement and
any amendment thereto does not, when it becomes effective, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and (iii) any
prospectus forming part of any Exchange Offer Registration Statement, and any supplement to such prospectus, does not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 

2.         Shelf Registration.    If, (i) because of
any change in law or in applicable interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission, the Company determines that it is not permitted to effect a Registered Exchange Offer, as contemplated by Section 1 hereof or (ii) the Registered
Exchange Offer is not consummated within 225 days of the Issue Date, (each of the matters described in clauses (i) and (ii), a “Shelf Registration Triggering Event”): 

(a)        The Company shall, at its cost, as promptly as practicable
after, but in no event later than 60 days after, a Shelf Triggering Event (a “Filing Deadline”) file with the Commission and thereafter shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective
automatically upon filing) no later than 120 days after such Shelf Triggering Event (such 120 day, an “Effectiveness Deadline”) a registration statement (the “Shelf Registration Statement” and, together with the Exchange Offer
Registration Statement, a “Registration Statement”) on an appropriate form under the Securities Act relating to the offer and sale of the Transfer Restricted Securities by the Holders thereof from time to time in accordance with the
methods of distribution set forth in the Shelf Registration Statement and Rule 415 under the Securities Act (hereinafter, the “Shelf Registration”); provided, however, that no Holder shall be entitled to have the Securities held by it
covered by such Shelf Registration Statement unless such Holder agrees in writing to be bound by all the provisions of this Agreement applicable to such Holder. 

(b)        The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to keep
the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective in order to permit the prospectus included therein to be lawfully delivered by the Holders of the relevant Securities, for a period of one year (or for such longer period if extended pursuant
to Section 3(j) below) from the Issue Date or such shorter period that will terminate when all the Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement (i) have been sold pursuant thereto or (ii) are no longer restricted securities
(as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or any successor rule thereof). 

(c)        Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement to
the contrary, the Company shall cause the Shelf Registration Statement and the related prospectus and 

  
 4 

 
any amendment or supplement thereto, as of its respective effective date, (i) to comply in all material respects with the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission and
(ii) not to contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading. 
 3.         Registration
Procedures.    In connection with any Shelf Registration contemplated by Section 2 hereof and, to the extent applicable, any Registered Exchange Offer contemplated by Section 1 hereof, the following provisions shall
apply: 
 (a)        The Company shall (i) cause to be
furnished to the Dealer Manager, prior to the filing thereof with the Commission, a copy of the Registration Statement and each amendment thereof and each supplement, if any, to the prospectus included therein, which documents will be subject to the
reasonable review and comment by the Dealer Manager (provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company to furnish drafts of its periodic, current or other reports filed under the Exchange Act in advance of such
filing); (ii) include the information set forth in Annex A hereto on the cover, in Annex B hereto in the “Exchange Offer Procedures” section and the “Purpose of the Exchange Offer” section and in Annex C hereto in the
“Plan of Distribution” section of the prospectus forming a part of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement and include the information set forth in Annex D hereto in the Letter of Transmittal delivered pursuant to the Registered Exchange
Offer; (iii) include within the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement a section entitled “Plan of Distribution,” which shall contain a summary statement of the positions taken or policies made by the staff
of the Commission with respect to the potential “underwriter” status of any broker-dealer that is the beneficial owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of
Exchange Securities received by such broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer (a “Participating Broker-Dealer”); and (iv) in the case of a Shelf Registration Statement, include in the prospectus included in the Shelf
Registration Statement (or, if permitted by Commission Rule 430B(b), in a prospectus supplement that becomes a part thereof pursuant to Commission Rule 430B(f) that is delivered to any Holder pursuant to Section 3(d) and (f), the names of the
Holders, who propose to sell Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement, as selling security holders. 

(b)        The Company shall give written notice to the Dealer
Manager, the Holders of the Securities (in case of any Shelf Registration Statement) and any Participating Broker-Dealer from whom the Company has received prior written notice that it will be a Participating Broker-Dealer in the Registered Exchange
Offer (which notice pursuant to clauses (ii)-(v) hereof shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made): 

(i)        when the Registration Statement or any amendment thereto
has been filed with the Commission and when the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

 (ii)       of any request by
the Commission for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information; 

(iii)      of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose, or the issuance by the Commission of a notification of objection to the use of the form on which the Registration Statement has been filed, and of the
happening of any event that causes the Company to become an “ineligible issuer,” as defined in Commission Rule 405; 

(iv)       of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any
notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation of any proceeding for such purpose; and 

(v)        of the happening of any event that requires the Company to
make changes in the Registration Statement or the prospectus in order that the Registration Statement or the prospectus do not contain an untrue statement of a material fact nor omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading. 

(c)        The Company shall make every reasonable best effort to
obtain the withdrawal at the earliest possible time, of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. 

(d)        The Company shall, during the Shelf Registration Period,
cause to be delivered to each Holder of Securities included within the coverage of the Shelf Registration, without charge, as many copies of the prospectus (including each preliminary prospectus) included in the Shelf Registration Statement and any
amendment or supplement thereto as such person may reasonably request in writing. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto by each of the selling Holders
of the Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities covered by the prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in the Shelf Registration Statement. 

(e)        The Company shall deliver to the Dealer Manager, any
Exchanging Dealer, any Participating Broker-Dealer and any other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer, without charge, as many copies of the final prospectus included in the Exchange Offer Registration
Statement and any amendment or supplement thereto as such persons may reasonably request in writing. The Company consents, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, to the use of the prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, if
necessary, by the Dealer Manager, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such other persons required to deliver a prospectus following the Registered Exchange Offer in connection with the offering and sale of the Exchange Securities covered by the
prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, included in such Exchange Offer Registration Statement. 

  
 6 

 (f)        Prior to any
public offering of the Securities, pursuant to any Registration Statement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Holders of the Securities included therein and their respective counsel in
connection with the registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or “blue sky” laws of such states of the United States as any Holder of the Securities reasonably requests in writing and do any
and all other acts or things necessary or advisable to enable the offer and sale in such jurisdictions of the Securities covered by such Registration Statement; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify generally
to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified or (ii) take any action which would subject it to general service of process or to taxation in any jurisdiction where it is not then so subject. 

(g)        The Company shall cooperate with the Holders of the
Securities to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing the Securities to be sold pursuant to any Registration Statement free of any restrictive legends and in such denominations and registered in such names as the
Holders may request a reasonable period of time prior to sales of the Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. 

(h)        Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by paragraphs
(ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above during the period for which the Company is required to maintain an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly prepare and file a post-effective amendment to the Registration
Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus and any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to Holders of the Securities or purchasers of Securities, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or
omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Dealer Manager, the Holders of the
Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer in accordance with paragraphs (ii) through (v) of Section 3(b) above to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the
Dealer Manager, the Holders of the Securities and any such Participating Broker-Dealers shall suspend use of such prospectus, and the period of effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement provided for in Section 2(b) above and the
Exchange Offer Registration Statement provided for in Section 1 above shall each be extended by the number of days from and including the date of the giving of such notice to and including the date when the Dealer Manager, the Holders of the
Securities and any known Participating Broker-Dealer shall have received such amended or supplemented prospectus pursuant to this Section 3(h). During the period during which the Company is required to maintain an effective Shelf Registration
Statement pursuant to this Agreement, the Company will, prior to the three-year expiration of that Shelf Registration Statement file, and use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be declared effective (unless it becomes effective automatically
upon filing) within a period that avoids any interruption in the ability of Holders of Securities covered by the expiring Shelf Registration Statement to make registered dispositions, a new registration statement relating to the Securities, which
shall be deemed the “Shelf Registration Statement” for purposes of this Agreement. 

  
 7 

 (i)        Not later than
the effective date of the applicable Registration Statement, the Company will provide a CUSIP number for the Initial Securities or the Exchange Securities, as the case may be, and provide the applicable trustee with printed certificates for the
Initial Securities or the Exchange Securities, as the case may be, in a form eligible for deposit with The Depository Trust Company. 

(j)        The Company will comply in all material respects with all
rules and regulations of the Commission to the extent and so long as they are applicable to the Registered Exchange Offer or the Shelf Registration and will make generally available to its security holders (or otherwise provide in accordance with
Section 11(a) of the Securities Act) an earnings statement satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act, no later than 45 days after the end of a 12-month period (or 90 days, if such period is a fiscal year) beginning
with the first month of the Company’s first fiscal quarter commencing after the effective date of the Registration Statement, which statement shall cover such 12-month period; provided, however, that compliance by the Company with the periodic
reporting requirements of the Exchange Act shall satisfy the Company’s obligations under this Section 3(b)(1). 

(k)       The Company shall cause the Indenture to be qualified under the
Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in a timely manner and containing such changes, if any, as shall be necessary for such qualification. In the event that such qualification would require the appointment of a new trustee under the Indenture,
the Company shall appoint a new trustee thereunder pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Indenture. 

(l)        The Company may require each Holder of Securities to be
sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement to furnish to the Company such information regarding the Holder and the distribution of the Securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably require for inclusion in the Shelf Registration
Statement, and the Company may exclude from such registration the Securities of any Holder that fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. 

(m)       Subject to Section 9, the Company shall enter into such
customary agreements (including, if requested, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take all such other action, if any, as the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities shall reasonably request in order to facilitate
the disposition of the Securities pursuant to any Shelf Registration. 

(n)        In the case of any underwritten Shelf Registration, the
Company shall (i) make reasonably available for inspection by any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by such underwriter all relevant
financial and other records and pertinent corporate documents of the Company and (ii) cause the Company’s officers, directors, employees, accountants and auditors to supply all relevant information reasonably requested by any such
underwriter, attorney, accountant or agent in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, in each case, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable such persons, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of Section 11 of the
Securities Act; provided, however, that the foregoing 

  
 8 

 
inspection and information gathering shall be coordinated by one counsel designated by and on behalf of such parties as described in Section 4 hereof. 

(o)        If a Registered Exchange Offer is to be consummated, upon
delivery of the Initial Securities by Holders to the Company (or to such other Person as directed by the Company) in exchange for the Exchange Securities, the Company shall cancel, or cause to be cancelled, the Initial Securities so exchanged for
the Exchange Securities; in no event shall the Initial Securities be marked as paid or otherwise satisfied. 

(p)        The Company shall cooperate and assist in any filings
required to be made with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and in the performance of any due diligence investigation by any underwriter (including any “qualified independent underwriter”) that is required to
be retained in accordance with the rules and regulations of FINRA. 

(q)        The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to take
all other steps necessary to effect the registration of the Securities covered by a Registration Statement contemplated hereby. 

(r)        The Company will use its reasonable best efforts to, if the
Initial Securities have been rated prior to the initial sale of such Initial Securities, confirm such ratings will apply to the Securities covered by a Registration Statement. 

4.         Market-Making
Prospectus.    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if, on the 180th day after the Issue Date, (i) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not become effective with the Commission and
(ii) a Shelf Registration Statement has not become effective with the Commission, then the Company shall file with the Commission a prospectus in connection with market-making activities with respect to the Initial Securities (the
“Market-Making Prospectus”) on the 180th day after the Issue Date utilizing one of its currently effective registration statements on Form S-3. The Company further agrees that all Exchanging Dealers shall be authorized to deliver such
Market-Making Prospectus (or, to the extent permitted by law, make available) for so long as such Exchanging Dealers may be required to deliver a prospectus in connection with market making activities with respect to the Initial Securities. 

5.         Registration Expenses.    The Company shall
bear all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the performance of its obligations under Sections 1 through 4 hereof (including the reasonable fees and expenses, if any, of counsel for the Dealer Manager incurred in connection with the
Registered Exchange Offer), whether or not the Registered Exchange Offer or a Shelf Registration is filed or becomes effective, and, in the event of a Shelf Registration, shall bear or reimburse the Holders of the Securities covered thereby for the
reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel designated by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Initial Securities covered thereby to act as counsel for the Holders of the Initial Securities in connection
therewith. 
 6.         Indemnification. 

  
 9 

 (a)   The Company agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless each Holder of the Securities, any Participating Broker-Dealer and each person, if any, who controls such Holder or such Participating Broker-Dealer within the meaning of either Section 15 the Securities Act or Section 20 of the
Exchange Act (each Holder, any Participating Broker-Dealer and such controlling persons are referred to collectively as the “Indemnified Parties”) against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, or any actions
in respect thereof (including, but not limited to, any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions relating to purchases and sales of the Securities) to which each Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act
or otherwise, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a Registration Statement as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or prospectus or in any amendment or supplement
thereto or in any preliminary prospectus or “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Securities Act Rule 433 (“Issuer FWP”), relating to a Shelf Registration, or any Market-Making Prospectus, or arising out of or based
upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such Indemnified Party to the extent set forth below, as
incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the
extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information
pertaining to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder specifically for use therein. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have. 

(b)        Each Holder of the Securities, severally and not jointly,
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs a Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or
Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity, from the Company to each Holder, but only with reference to written information relating to such Holder and furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Holder
for use in the preparation of the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which such Holder may otherwise have. 

(c)        Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this
Section 6 of notice of the commencement of any action (including any governmental investigation), such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under clause (a) or (b) of this
Section 6, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party otherwise than under clause
(a) or (b) of this Section 6. In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein, and to
the extent that it shall wish, jointly, with any other indemnifying party similarly 

  
 10 

 
notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the
indemnifying party). In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to obtain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and
the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and
representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential conflicts of interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified
party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate identified firm (in addition to any identified local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and
that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the parties to be indemnified pursuant paragraph (a) of this Section 6 in the case of parties to be indemnified pursuant
to paragraph (a) and by the Company in the case of parties to be indemnified pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 6. An indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its prior
written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No
indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified
party is a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to, or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of the indemnified party. 

(d)        To the extent the indemnification provided for in
Section 6(a) or 6(b) hereof is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such
indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received
by the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, from the exchange of the Securities pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is
not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties, on the one hand, and the
indemnified party, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party
or parties, on the one hand, and the indemnified party, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission

  
 11 

 
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by such Holder or other indemnified party, as the case may be, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access
to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be
deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Section 6(d), the Holders of the Securities shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the net proceeds received by such Holders from the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement exceeds
the amount of damages which such Holders have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 

  (e)        The agreements contained in this Section 6
shall survive the sale of the Securities pursuant to a Registration Statement and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified
party. 
 7.           Additional Interest Under Certain
Circumstances.    (a) Additional interest (the “Additional Interest”) with respect to the Initial Securities shall be assessed as follows if (each such event in clauses (i) through (iv) below a
“Registration Default”): 
 (i)          an
Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not been filed within 120 days of the Issue Date; 

(ii)         an Exchange Offer Registration Statement has not
been declared effective within 180 days of the Issue Date; 

(iii)        neither the Registered Exchange Offer is consummated,
nor, if required in lieu thereof, has the Shelf Registration Statement become effective, within 225 days of the Issue Date; 

(iv)        after either the Exchange Offer Registration Statement or
the Shelf Registration Statement becomes effective (A) such Registration Statement thereafter ceases to be or is not effective; or (B) such Registration Statement or the related prospectus ceases to be or is not usable (except as permitted
in paragraph (b)) in connection with resales of Transfer Restricted Securities during the periods specified herein because either (1) any event occurs as a result of which the related prospectus forming part of such Registration Statement would
include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, (2) it shall be necessary to amend such
Registration Statement or supplement the related prospectus, to comply with the 

  
 12 

 
Securities Act or the Exchange Act or the respective rules thereunder, or (3) such Registration Statement is a Shelf Registration Statement that has expired before a replacement Shelf
Registration Statement has become effective, 
 then Additional Interest shall accrue on the Initial Securities over and above the interest
set forth in the title of the Securities from and including the date on which any such Registration Default shall occur to but excluding the date on which all such Registration Defaults have been cured, at a rate of 0.25% per annum, plus an
additional 0.25% per annum from and during any period in which a Registration Default has continued for more than 90 days, up to a maximum rate of 0.50% per annum. In no event will Additional Interest accrue on the Initial Securities at a
rate exceeding 0.50% per annum. 
   (b)        A
Registration Default referred to in Section 7(a)(iv) hereof shall be deemed not to have occurred and be continuing in relation to a Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus if (i) such Registration Default has occurred solely
as a result of (x) the filing of a post-effective amendment to such Shelf Registration Statement to incorporate annual audited financial information with respect to the Company where such post-effective amendment is not yet effective and needs
to be declared effective to permit Holders to use the related prospectus or (y) other material events, with respect to the Company that would need to be described in such Shelf Registration Statement or the related prospectus and (ii) in
the case of clause (y) either there has occurred a business development or event and the Company determines in its reasonable judgment that disclosure of such development or event is not in the best interest of the Company or the Company is
proceeding promptly and in good faith to amend or supplement such Shelf Registration Statement and related prospectus to describe such events; provided, however, that in any case if such Registration Default occurs for a period in excess of 90 days
(whether or not consecutive) during any 365-day period Additional Interest shall be payable in accordance with the above paragraph from the day such Registration Default occurs until such Registration Default is cured. 

  (c)        Any amounts of Additional Interest due pursuant
to clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 7(a) above will be payable in cash on the regular interest payment dates with respect to the Initial Securities. The amount of Additional Interest will be determined by multiplying the
applicable Additional Interest rate by the principal amount of the Initial Securities, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days such Additional Interest rate was applicable during such period (determined on the basis of
a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months), and the denominator of which is 360. 

  (d)        “Transfer Restricted Securities”
means each Security until (i) the date on which such Transfer Restricted Security has been exchanged by a person other than a broker-dealer for a freely transferable Exchange Security in the Registered Exchange Offer, (ii) following the
exchange by a broker-dealer in the Registered Exchange Offer of an Initial Security for an Exchange Security, the date on which such Exchange Security is sold to a purchaser who receives from such broker-dealer on or prior to the date of such sale a
copy of the prospectus contained in the Exchange Offer Registration Statement, (iii) the date on which such Initial Security has been effectively registered under the 

  
 13 

 
Securities Act and disposed of in accordance with the Shelf Registration Statement or (iv) the date on which such Initial Securities is distributed to the public pursuant to Rule 144 under
the Securities Act or is saleable pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act by a person that is not an affiliate of the Company without regard to volume, manner of sale or current public information requirements. 

8.           Rules 144 and 144A.  The Company shall
use its reasonable best efforts to file the reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act in a timely manner and, if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, it will, upon the request of any
Holder of Initial Securities, make publicly available other information so long as necessary to permit sales of their securities pursuant to Rules 144 and 144A. The Company covenants that it will take such further action as any Holder of Initial
Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Initial Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rules 144 and 144A
(including the requirements of Rule 144A (d)(4)). Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 8 shall be deemed to require the Company to register any of its securities pursuant to the Exchange Act. 

9.           Underwritten Registrations.  Each Holder
of the Transfer Restricted Securities hereby agrees with the Company and each other Holder that no Holder of the Transfer Restricted Securities may participate in any underwritten offering hereunder unless the Company gives its prior written consent
to such underwritten offering (which it is under no obligations to do). If any of the Transfer Restricted Securities covered by any Shelf Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the investment banker or investment bankers and
manager or managers that will administer the offering (“Managing Underwriters”) will be selected by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of such Transfer Restricted Securities to be included in such offering and shall be
reasonably satisfactory to the Company. 
 No person may participate in any underwritten registration hereunder unless such
person (i) agrees to sell such person’s Transfer Restricted Securities on the basis reasonably provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the persons entitled hereunder to approve such arrangements and (ii) completes and
executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements. 

10.         Miscellaneous. 

  (a)        In the event that any provision hereof shall be
determined to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, such determination shall not affect such provision in any other respect or any other provision hereof, which shall remain in full force and effect. 

  (b)        Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, whenever notice is required by the provisions of this Agreement to be given to: 

(1)        a Holder of the Securities, such notice shall be in
writing addressed to the most current address given by such Holder to the Company;

Agreement is hereby waived by the parties hereto. 

(f)        Whenever the consent or approval of Holders of a specified
percentage of principal amount of Securities is required hereunder, Securities held by the Company or its affiliates (other than subsequent Holders of Securities if such subsequent Holders are deemed to be affiliates solely by reason of their
holdings of such Securities) shall not be counted in determining whether such consent or approval was given by the Holders of such required percentage. 

(g)        By the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the
Company submits to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and State courts in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. To
the extent that the Company may acquire any immunity from jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise) with respect to
itself or its property, it hereby irrevocably waives such immunity in respect of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Registration Rights Agreement for 2044 Notes] 

 ANNEX A 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that
it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. The Letter of Transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an
“underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities received in exchange for
Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date (as defined
herein), it will make this Prospectus available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. See “Plan of Distribution.” 

 ANNEX B 

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account in exchange for Securities, where such Initial
Securities were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. See “Plan of
Distribution.”

Each broker-dealer that receives Exchange Securities for its own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer must acknowledge that
it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such Exchange Securities. This Prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of Exchange Securities
received in exchange for Initial Securities where such Initial Securities were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. The Company has agreed that, for a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date, it will
make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to any broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale. In addition, all dealers effecting transactions in the Exchange Securities may be required to deliver a prospectus meeting
the requirements of the Securities Act when it resells such Exchange Securities(1) 

The Company will not receive any proceeds from any sale of Exchange Securities by broker-dealers. Exchange Securities received
by broker-dealers for their own account pursuant to the Exchange Offer may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the Exchange Securities or
a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale, at prices related to such prevailing market prices or negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or
dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer or the purchasers of any such Exchange Securities. Any broker-dealer that resells Exchange Securities that were received by it for its own
account pursuant to the Exchange Offer and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such Exchange Securities may be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act and any profit on any such resale
of Exchange Securities and any commission or concessions received by any such persons may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The Letter of Transmittal states that, by acknowledging that it will deliver and by
delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. 

For a period of 180 days after the Expiration Date the Company will promptly send additional copies of this Prospectus and any
amendment or supplement to this Prospectus to any broker-dealer that requests such documents in the Letter of Transmittal. The Company has agreed to pay all expenses incident to the Exchange Offer (including the reasonable and documented expenses of
one counsel for the Holders of the Securities) other than commissions or concessions of any brokers or dealers and will indemnify the Holders of the Securities (including any broker-dealers) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under
the Securities Act. 
  
  

(1) In addition, the legend required by Item 502(e) of Regulation S-K will appear on the back cover
page of the Exchange Offer prospectus.
