A Global Security shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in the names of persons other than the Depositary or its nominee (including notes issued in definitive form) only if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Security and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of receipt by the Company of such notification, or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as such Depositary and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days after it becomes aware of such cessation, (ii) the Company in its sole discretion, and subject to the procedures of the Depositary, determines that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable, in which case Notes in definitive form will be printed and delivered to the Depositary, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes.  Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct.
Section 106.Redemption.  At any time prior to May 15, 2049 (six months prior to the Stated Maturity), the Company may redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at its option, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, with a copy to the Trustee, to each Holder of Notes to the address of such Holder appearing in the Notes Register, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed) equal to the greater of 
(i)100.000% of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding to be so redeemed, or
(ii)the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would be due if such Notes matured on May 15, 2049 but for the redemption (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points,
plus, in either of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. 
In addition, the Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on or after May 15, 2049 (six months prior to the Stated Maturity), at our option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.
The Adjusted Treasury Rate shall be calculated no later than the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.
Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.
In the event of the redemption of the Notes in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion will be issued in the name or names of the Holders thereof upon surrender thereof.

(i)if the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) and that the Restricted Legend is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of such Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act; or

If an Event of Default with respect to Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee for the series of Securities affected, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected.  The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity.  The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or premium, if any, or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for herein.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

(i)100.000% of the principal amount of Notes then outstanding to be so redeemed, or
(ii)the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would be due if such Notes matured on June 15, 2044 but for the redemption (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points,

plus, in either of the above cases, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.
In addition, the Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part at any time and from time to time on or after June 15, 2044 (six months prior to the Stated Maturity), at our option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.
The Adjusted Treasury Rate shall be calculated no later than the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date.

In the event of the redemption of the Notes in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion will be issued in the name or names of the Holders thereof upon surrender thereof.

The Company shall pay amounts due in respect of Additional Interest on each Interest Payment Date (or, if the Company shall default in the payment of interest on any Interest Payment Date, on the date such interest is otherwise paid as provided in the Base Indenture). The Company shall promptly give notice to the Trustee of any Registration Default.
Section 111.Reports by Company.  The Company shall, if the Company is not then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and because the Commission has not promulgated any rules or regulations for issuers in the Company’s circumstances, until such time as the Company is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, provide to the Trustee and all Holders of Notes, upon request, the information required to be delivered pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act unless such information is available on the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system or any successor system; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to determine whether or not such information has been filed pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system or any successor system.

(i)if the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) and that the Restricted Legend is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of such Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act; or
(ii)if a Note is sold pursuant to an effective Registration, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement (if applicable) or otherwise; or
(iii)if a Note is exchanged for an Exchange Note pursuant to the Registered Exchange Offer;

(ii)Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Securities that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in another Global Security will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in the initial Global Security and will become an interest in the other Global Security and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Security for as long as it remains such an interest.
Section 205.Regulation S Global Securities.  Following the termination of the Distribution Compliance Period and upon the receipt by the Company and the Security Registrar of an Officers’ Certificate stating that the Distribution Compliance Period has terminated and that the conditions precedent to the transfer from Regulation S Temporary Global Securities to Regulation S Permanent Global Securities have been complied with, beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Securities will be exchanged for beneficial interests in one or more Regulation S Permanent Global Securities, issued in a denomination equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Securities pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Depositary, Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, in each case pertaining to beneficial interests in Global Securities. 
Simultaneously with the authentication of the Regulation S Permanent Global Securities, the Trustee will cancel the Regulation S Temporary Global Securities upon instructions from the Company. As used herein, “Regulation S Global Securities” means the Regulation S Temporary Global Securities or the Regulation S Permanent Global Securities, as applicable. 
The aggregate principal amount of the Regulation S Temporary Global Securities and the Regulation S Permanent Global Securities may be adjusted by endorsements to Schedule I on the reverse thereof in any situation where adjustment is permitted or required by the Indenture. Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, no Regulation S Global Security shall be issued except as provided in this Supplemental Indenture to evidence Securities offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S. Unless the Company determines otherwise in accordance with applicable law, the legend setting forth transfer restrictions shall be removed or deemed removed from a Regulation S Security in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 203 hereof, and each such Security shall thereafter be held as an unrestricted Security.
The rules and procedures of DTC (the “DTC Procedures”) will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Securities and the provisions of the “Operating Procedures of the Euroclear System” and “Terms and Conditions Governing Use of Euroclear” (collectively the “Euroclear Procedures”), and the “General Terms and Conditions of Clearstream Banking” and “Customer Handbook” of Clearstream (collectively, the “Clearstream Procedures” and, together with the DTC Procedures and the Euroclear Procedures, the “Applicable Procedures”),  will be applicable to transfers of beneficial interests in the Regulation S Temporary Global Security and the Regulation S Permanent Global Security that are held by members of, or direct or indirect participants in the Depositary (“Participant”), holding such interests through Euroclear or Clearstream.

Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture dated as of June 30, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”), as heretofore supplemented and as further supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 30, 2021 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, as it may be hereafter supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), by and between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee”), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.  This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof (the “Notes”) which is unlimited in aggregate principal amount.
The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
If an Event of Default with respect to Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee for the series of Securities affected, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected.  The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity.  The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or premium, if any, or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for herein.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
A-7

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any greater integral multiple of $1,000.  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes having the same Stated Maturity and of like tenor of any authorized denominations as requested by the Holder upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Company.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
