Indenture” and, as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 22, 2021 and as hereby
supplemented and amended, the “Indenture”), providing for the establishment from time to time of one or more series
(each, a “Series”) of securities evidencing indebtedness of the Company (hereinafter called the “Securities”),
and the issuance by the Company from time to time of Securities under the Indenture;

 

WHEREAS, Section

DEFINITIONS

 

Section
1.01. Relation to Base Indenture. This Second Supplemental Indenture constitutes an integral part of, and amends and supplements,
the Base Indenture as set forth herein.

 

Section
1.02. Definition of Terms. For all purposes of this Second Supplemental Indenture:

 

(a)       Capitalized
terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings set forth in the Base Indenture, provided that if the definition of a capitalized
term defined in this Second Supplemental Indenture conflicts with the definition of that capitalized term in the Base Indenture, the
definition of that capitalized term in this Second Supplemental Indenture shall control for purposes of this Second Supplemental Indenture
and the Notes;

 

(b)      a
term defined anywhere in this Second Supplemental Indenture has the same meaning throughout this Second Supplemental Indenture;

 

(c)      the
singular includes the plural and vice versa;

 

     

     

    

 

(d)      headings
are for convenience of reference only and do not affect interpretation;

 

(e)       unless
otherwise specified or unless the context requires otherwise, (i) all references in this Second Supplemental Indenture to Sections refer
to the corresponding Sections of this Second Supplemental Indenture and (ii) the terms “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder”
and any other word of similar import refer to this Second Supplemental Indenture; and

 

(f)       for
purposes of this Second Supplemental Indenture and the Notes, the following terms have the meanings given to them in this Section
1.02(f):

 

“2032
Series” shall have the meaning set forth in the Recitals.

 

“Authenticating
Agent” means any Person authorized by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.15 of the Base Indenture to act on behalf of the Trustee
to authenticate the Notes.

 

“Base
Indenture” shall have the meaning set forth in the Recitals.

 

“Benchmark”
means, initially, Three-Month Term SOFR; provided that, if the Calculation Agent determines on or prior to the Reference Time for any
Floating Rate Interest Period that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect
to Three-Month Term SOFR or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement for such
Floating Rate Interest Period and any subsequent Floating Rate Interest Periods.

 

“Benchmark
Replacement” means the Interpolated Benchmark with respect to the then-current Benchmark, plus the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment
for such Benchmark; provided that if (a) the Calculation Agent cannot determine the Interpolated Benchmark as of the Benchmark Replacement
Date or (b) the then-current Benchmark is Three-Month Term SOFR and a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement
Date have occurred with respect to Three-Month Term SOFR (in which event no Interpolated Benchmark with respect to Three-Month Term SOFR
shall be determined), then “Benchmark Replacement” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined
by the Calculation Agent as of the Benchmark Replacement Date and is administratively feasible:

 

(1)       Compounded
SOFR;

 

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

 

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

 

(4)       the
sum of: (a) the alternate rate that has been selected by the Calculation Agent as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for
the applicable Corresponding Tenor, giving due consideration to any industry-accepted rate as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark
for Dollar-denominated floating rate securities at such time, and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.

 

“Benchmark
Replacement Adjustment” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Calculation
Agent as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:

 

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

 

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

 

    2

     

    

 

(3)      the
spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Calculation Agent giving due consideration
to any industry-accepted spread adjustment or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of the
then-current Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for Dollar-denominated floating rate securities at such time.

 

“Benchmark
Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative, or operational
changes (including, without limitation, changes to the definition of “Floating Rate Interest Period,” timing and frequency
of determining rates with respect to each Floating Rate Interest Period and making payments of interest, rounding of amounts or tenors,
and other administrative matters) that the Calculation Agent determines may be appropriate to reflect the adoption of such Benchmark
Replacement in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Calculation Agent determines that adoption of any portion
of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Calculation Agent determines that no market practice for use of the
Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner as the Calculation Agent determines is reasonably necessary).

 

“Benchmark
Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

 

(1)       in
the case of clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the relevant Reference Time in respect of any determination;

 

(2)       in
the case of clause (2) or (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of the date of the public statement
or publication of information referenced therein and the date on which the administrator of the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely
ceases to provide the Benchmark; or

 

(3)       in
the case of clause (4) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication
of information referenced therein.

 

For
the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference
Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for
such determination.

 

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

 

(1)       if
the Benchmark is Three-Month Term SOFR, the Company determines that the use of a forward-looking rate for a tenor of three months based
on SOFR is not administratively feasible;

 

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

 

(3)      a
public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Benchmark, the central bank
for the currency of the Benchmark, an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark, a resolution authority
with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over
the administrator for the Benchmark, which states that the administrator of the Benchmark has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark
permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will
continue to provide the Benchmark; or

 

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

Compounded SOFR; provided that:

 

(2)       if,

As
used above, the term “purchase-money obligations” means indebtedness, obligations evidenced by a note, debenture, bond or
other instrument, whether or not secured by a lien or other security interest, issued to evidence the obligation to pay or a guarantee
of the payment of, and any deferred obligation for the payment of, the purchase price of property but excluding indebtedness or obligations
for which recourse is limited to the property purchased, issued or assumed as all or a part of the consideration for the acquisition
of property or services, whether by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise, but does not include any trade accounts payable.

 

Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Federal Reserve Board (or other competent regulatory agency or authority) promulgates any rule or issues any interpretation
that defines general creditor(s), the main purpose of which is to establish criteria for determining whether the subordinated debt of
a bank holding company is to be included in its capital, then the term “general creditors” as used in this definition of
 “Senior Indebtedness” in this Second Supplemental Indenture will have the meaning as described in that rule or interpretation.

amendment to or change (including any announced prospective amendment or change) in any law, treaty, statute or code, or any regulation
thereunder, of the United States or any of its political subdivisions or taxing authorities;

 

(2)        a
judicial decision, administrative action, official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, regulation, notice or
announcement, including any notice or announcement of intent to adopt or promulgate any ruling, regulatory procedure or regulation
(any of the foregoing, an “administrative or judicial action”);

 

(3)        an
amendment to or change in any official position with respect to, or any interpretation of, an administrative or judicial action or a
law or regulation of the United States that differs from the previously generally accepted position or interpretation; or

 

(4)        a
threatened challenge asserted in writing in connection with an audit of the Company’s federal income tax returns or positions or
a similar audit of any of its Subsidiaries, or a publicly known threatened challenge asserted in writing against any other taxpayer that
has raised capital through the issuance of securities that are substantially similar to the Notes,

 

in
each case, occurring or becoming publicly known on or after the date of original issuance of the Notes, has resulted in more than an
insubstantial increase in the risk that the interest paid by the Company on the Notes is not, or within 90 days of receipt of such opinion
of Independent Tax Counsel, will not be, deductible by the Company, in whole or in part, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

 

“Term
SOFR” means the forward-looking term rate for the applicable Corresponding Tenor based on SOFR published by Term SOFR Administrator.

Term SOFR” means the rate for Term SOFR for a tenor of three months that is published by the Term SOFR Administrator at the

SOFR Conventions. All percentages used in or resulting from any calculation of Three-Month Term SOFR shall be rounded, if necessary,
to the nearest one-hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with 0.000005% rounded up to 0.00001%.

 

    7

     

    

 

“Three-Month
Term SOFR Conventions” means any determination, decision, or election with respect to any technical, administrative, or
operational matter (including with respect to the manner and timing of the publication of Three-Month Term SOFR, or changes
to the definition of “Floating Rate Interest Period,” timing and frequency of determining Three-Month Term SOFR with
respect to each Floating Rate Interest Period and making payments of interest, rounding of amounts or tenors, and other
administrative matters) that the Calculation Agent determines may be appropriate to reflect the use of Three-Month Term SOFR as the
Benchmark in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Calculation Agent determines that adoption of any
portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Calculation Agent determines that no market practice for
the use of Three-Month Term SOFR exists, in such other manner as the Calculation Agent determines is reasonably necessary).

 

“Tier
2 Capital Event” shall mean the receipt by the Company of an opinion of Independent Bank Regulatory Counsel to the effect that,
as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws or any regulations thereunder
of the United States or any rules, guidelines or policies of an applicable regulatory authority for the Company or (b) any official administrative
pronouncement or judicial decision interpreting or applying such laws or regulations, which amendment or change is effective or which
pronouncement or decision is announced on or after the date of original issuance of the Notes, the Notes do not constitute, or within
90 days of the date of such opinion will not constitute, Tier 2 capital (or its then equivalent if the Company were subject to such capital
requirement) for purposes of capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board (or any successor regulatory authority with jurisdiction
over bank holding companies), as then in effect and applicable to the Company.

Company may, from time to time, without notice to, or the consent of, the holders of the Notes, issue additional Securities ranking equally
with the Notes and identical to the Notes issued on the date hereof in all respects (except for the issue date, the offering price, the
payment of interest accruing prior to the issue date of such additional Securities and the first payment of interest following the issue
date of such additional Securities) in order that such additional Securities may be consolidated and form a single series with the Notes
and have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Notes. However, any additional Securities of the series of which
the Notes are a part that are issued and are not fungible with the outstanding Notes of such series for United States federal income
tax purposes will be issued under one or more separate CUSIP numbers and ISIN numbers. No limit exists on the aggregate principal amount
of the additional Securities of this series that the Company may issue in the future.

 

Section
2.02. Maturity. The date upon which the Notes shall become due and payable at final maturity, together with any accrued and
unpaid interest then owing, is September 1, 2032 (the “Maturity Date”).

 

    8

     

    

 

 

Section
2.03. Form, Payment and Appointment. Except as provided in Section 2.07(d) of the Base Indenture, the Notes will be issued
only in book-entry form, will be represented by one or more Global Notes (as defined below) registered in the name of or held by The Depository
Trust Company (and any successor organization thereto) (“DTC”) or its nominee. Principal or the redemption price, if
any, of a Note shall be payable to the Person in whose name that Note is registered on the Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as the case
may be, provided that the redemption price, if any, principal of and interest on the Notes represented by one or more Global Notes registered
in the name of or held by DTC or its nominee will be payable in immediately available funds to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be,
as the registered holder of such Global Notes. The principal of any certificated Notes will be payable at the Place of Payment set forth
below.

 

The
Notes shall have such other terms as are set forth in the form thereof attached hereto as Exhibit A, which is incorporated
herein and made a part hereof.

 

The
Security Registrar, Authenticating Agent, and Paying Agent for the Notes shall initially be the Trustee. The Company will appoint a Person
to act as the Calculation Agent as provided under the definition of Calculation Agent and Section 2.05.

 

The
Place of Payment for the Notes shall be an office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which shall initially be the Corporate
Trust Office of the Trustee.

 

The
Notes will be issued and may be transferred only in minimum denominations of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof that is an integral
multiple of $1,000. The Company will pay principal of and interest on the Notes in U.S. Dollars.

 

Section
2.04. Global Note. The Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more fully registered global notes (each such
global note, a “Global Note”) registered in the name of DTC or its nominee and deposited with DTC or its designated
custodian or such other Depositary as any Authorized Officer of the Company may from time to time designate. Unless and until a Global
Note is exchanged for definitive certificated Notes, such Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any payments on
the Notes shall be made, only to DTC or a nominee of DTC, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee
of such successor Depositary as provided in the Indenture.

 

Section
2.05. Interest.

 

(a)       From
and including August 24, 2022, to, but excluding, September 1, 2027 (unless redeemed prior to such date pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof)
(the “Fixed Rate Period”), the Notes will bear interest at a rate of 6.000% per year. During the Fixed Rate Period,
interest on the Notes will accrue from and including August 24, 2022, and will be payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September
1 of each year during the Fixed Rate Period, commencing on March 1, 2023 (each such date, a “Fixed Period Interest Payment Date”).
The interest payable on the Notes on any Fixed Period Interest Payment Date will be paid to the holder by the close of business on the
15th calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the Fixed Period Interest Payment Date.

 

(b)       From
and including September 1, 2027, to, but excluding, the Maturity Date (unless redeemed prior to such date pursuant to Section
3.01 or Section 3.02 hereof) (the “Floating Rate Period”), the Notes will bear interest at
a floating rate per year equal to the Benchmark. During the Floating Rate Period, interest on the Notes will accrue from and including
September 1, 2027 and will be payable quarterly in arrears on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on
December 1, 2027 (each such date, a “Floating Period Interest Payment Date” and, together with a Fixed Period Interest
Payment Date, an “Interest Payment Date”). The interest payable on the Notes on any Floating Period Interest Payment
Date will, except as noted in the immediately succeeding sentence, be paid to the holder by the close of business on the 15th calendar
day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the Floating Period Interest Payment Date. However, interest that the Company
pays on the Maturity Date will be paid to the Person to whom the principal will be payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Benchmark
is less than zero, then the Benchmark shall be deemed to be zero. The Calculation Agent will provide the Company and the Trustee with
written notice of the interest rate in effect on the Notes promptly after the Reference Time (or such other date of determination for
the applicable Benchmark) for each Floating Rate Interest Period.

 

    9 

     

    

 

(c)       During
the Fixed Rate Period, interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. During the Floating
Rate Period, interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Dollar amounts resulting
from those calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward.

 

(d)       If
any Fixed Period Interest Payment Date for the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Company will postpone the interest
or principal payment to the next succeeding Business Day, but the payments made on such dates will be treated as being made on the date
that the payment was first due and the holders of the Notes will not be entitled to any further interest, principal or other payments
with respect to such postponements. If any Floating Period Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business
Day, the Company will postpone the interest payment or the payment of principal and interest at the Maturity Date to the next succeeding
Business Day (and, with respect to the Maturity Date, no additional interest will accrue on the amount payable for the period from and
after the Maturity Date) unless, with respect to a Floating Period Interest Payment Date only, such day falls in the next calendar month,
in which case the Floating Period Interest Payment Date will instead be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day, and interest
will accrue to, but excluding, such Floating Period Interest Payment Date as so adjusted.

 

(e)       The
Company shall appoint a Calculation Agent prior to the commencement of the Floating Rate Period. The Company will act as the initial Calculation
Agent. Absent manifest error, the Calculation Agent’s determination of the interest rate for any Floating Rate Interest Period will
be binding and conclusive upon the holders of the Notes (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each beneficial owner), the Company (if
the Company is not also the Calculation Agent) and the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no duty to confirm or verify any such calculation.
By its acquisition of the Notes, each holder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, each beneficial owner) acknowledges, accepts, consents
to and agrees to be bound by the Calculation Agent’s determination of the interest rate for each Floating Rate Interest Period,
including the Calculation Agent’s determination of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, Benchmark Replacement Date, Benchmark
Replacement, Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, and Benchmark Transition Event, including as may occur without any prior notice from the
Company or the Calculation Agent and without the need for the Company or the Calculation Agent to obtain any further consent from any
holder of the Notes. The Calculation Agent’s determination of any interest rate, and its calculation of interest payments, for any
Floating Rate Interest Period, will be maintained on file at the Calculation Agent’s principal offices, and will be made available
by the Company to any holder of the Notes upon request.

 

(f)       The
Calculation Agent shall have all the rights, protections and indemnities afforded to the Trustee under the Indenture. The Company may
remove the Calculation Agent at any time. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as Calculation Agent or is removed by
the Company, the Company shall promptly appoint a replacement Calculation Agent. The Trustee shall not be under any duty to succeed to,
assume or otherwise perform, any duties of the Calculation Agent, or to appoint a successor or replacement in the event of the Calculation
Agent’s resignation or removal or to replace the Calculation Agent in the event of a default, breach or failure of performance
on the part of the Calculation Agent with respect to the Calculation Agent’s duties and obligations under the Indenture. For the
avoidance of doubt, if at any time there is no Calculation Agent appointed by the Company, then the Company shall be the Calculation Agent.

 

(g)       Effect
of Benchmark Transition Event.

 

(1)     If the Calculation
Agent determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred on or prior to the Reference
Time in respect of any Floating Rate Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period, then the Benchmark Replacement will replace the
then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Notes during such Floating Rate Interest Period and all remaining Floating Rate
Interest Periods. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Calculation Agent will have the right to make
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time.   (2)        Notwithstanding
anything set forth in Section 2.05(b) above, if the Calculation Agent determines on or prior to the relevant Reference
Time that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to Three-Month Term SOFR,
then the provisions set forth in this Section 2.05(g) will thereafter apply to all determinations of the Benchmark used
to calculate the interest rate on the Notes for each Floating Rate Interest Period.

 

    10 

     

    

 

(3)    The Company and
the Calculation Agent are expressly authorized to make certain determinations, decisions, and elections under the terms of the Notes,
including with respect to the use of Three-Month Term SOFR as the Benchmark for the Floating Rate Period and under this Section
2.05(g). Any determination, decision, or election that may be made by the Company or by the Calculation Agent under the terms of the
Notes, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate, or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance,
or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection (A) will be conclusive and binding on the holders
of the Notes, the Company (if the Company is not also making the decision) and the Trustee absent manifest error, (B) if made by the Company
as Calculation Agent, will be made in the Company’s sole discretion, (C) if made by a Calculation Agent other than the Company,
will be made after consultation with the Company, and the Calculation Agent will not make any such determination, decision, or election
to which the Company reasonably objects and (D) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or the Notes, shall become effective
without consent from the holders of the Notes or the Trustee or any other party. If the Calculation Agent fails to make any determination,
decision, or election that it is required to make under the terms of the Notes, then the Company will make such determination, decision,
or election on the same basis as described above. In connection with such determination, decision, or election, the Company shall be treated
as the Calculation Agent for all purposes hereunder.

 

(4)    The Company (or
the Calculation Agent) shall notify the Trustee in writing (i) upon the occurrence of the Benchmark Transition Event or the Benchmark
Replacement Date, and (ii) of any Benchmark Replacements, Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes after a Benchmark Transition Event.

 

(5)    The Trustee (including
in its capacity as Paying Agent) shall have no (i) responsibility or liability for the (A) Three-Month Term SOFR Conventions, (B) selection
of an alternative reference rate to Three-Month Term SOFR (including, without limitation, whether the conditions for the designation of
such rate have been satisfied or whether such rate is a Benchmark Replacement or an Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement), (C) determination
or calculation of a Benchmark Replacement, or (D) determination of whether a Benchmark Transition Event or Benchmark Replacement Date
has occurred, and in each such case under clauses (A) through (D) above shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon the selection, determination,
and/or calculation thereof as provided by the Company or its Calculation Agent, as applicable, and (ii) liability for any failure or delay
in performing its duties hereunder as a result of the unavailability of a Benchmark rate as described in the definition thereof, including,
without limitation, as a result of the Company’s or the Calculation Agent’s failure to select a Benchmark Replacement or the
Calculation Agent’s failure to calculate a Benchmark. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on all notices from the
Company or the Calculation Agent regarding any Benchmark or Benchmark Replacement, including, without limitation, in regards to Three-Month
Term SOFR Conventions, a Benchmark Transition Event, Benchmark Replacement Date, and Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Under no
circumstances will the Trustee be responsible for selecting or determining a Benchmark Replacement if Three-Month Term SOFR or any other
Benchmark will no longer be available past a designated date. In the case of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Calculation Agent will
select the Benchmark Replacement prior to the Benchmark Replacement Date, ensuring that the Trustee will be able to meet its obligations
and requirements under this Indenture with respect to the Benchmark Replacement. No such replacement (including any Benchmark Replacement
Conforming Changes) to the Indenture shall impact the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under the Indenture or otherwise.
The Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for the actions or omissions of the Calculation Agent, or any failure or delay in the performance
of the Calculation Agent’s duties or obligations, nor shall it be under any obligation to monitor or oversee the performance of
the Calculation Agent. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any determination made, and any instruction, notice, Officer’s
Certificate or other instruction or information provided by the Calculation Agent without independent verification, investigation or
inquiry of any kind.

 

(6)    If the then-current
Benchmark is Three-Month Term SOFR, the Calculation Agent will have the right to establish the Three-Month Term SOFR Conventions, and
if any of the foregoing provisions concerning the calculation of the interest rate and interest payments during the Floating Rate Period
are inconsistent with any of the Three-Month Term SOFR Conventions determined by the Calculation Agent, then the relevant Three-Month
Term SOFR Conventions will apply. Furthermore, if the Calculation Agent determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark
Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Three-Month Term SOFR at any time when any of the Notes are outstanding, then the foregoing
provisions concerning the calculation of the interest rate and interest payments during the Floating Rate Period will be modified in accordance
with this Section 2.05(g).

Section
2.06. Subordination.

 

(a)       The
Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each holder of Notes by the holder’s acceptance thereof,
likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of the principal of and interest on each and all of the Notes is and will be expressly
subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, subject to clause (j) of this Section
2.06, to the extent and in the manner described in this Section 2.06 and Section 16.01 of the Base Indenture.

 

(b)       In
the event of the insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation or other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company (subject
to the power of a court of competent jurisdiction to make other equitable provision reflecting the rights conferred upon the Senior Indebtedness
and the holders thereof with respect to the Notes and the holders thereof by a lawful plan of reorganization under applicable bankruptcy
law):

 

(i)       the
holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in accordance with the terms of such Senior Indebtedness
of the principal thereof and premium, if any, and interest due thereon (including interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of
any proceeding for the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law now or hereafter
in effect) before the holders of the Notes are entitled to receive any payment upon the principal of or interest on indebtedness evidenced
by the Notes;

 

(ii)       any
payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the holders
of the Notes would be entitled except for the provisions of Section 16.01 of the Base Indenture and this Section 2.06, including
any such payment or distribution that may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment of any other indebtedness of the Company
being subordinated to the payment of the Notes, shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment
or distribution, whether a bankruptcy trustee, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any
of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, in accordance with the priorities then existing among holders of Senior Indebtedness
for payment of the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest (including interest
accruing subsequent to the commencement of any proceeding for the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company under any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law now or hereafter in effect) on the Senior Indebtedness held or represented by each, to the extent necessary
to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any other concurrent payment or distribution
to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; it being understood that if the holders of the Notes shall fail to file a proper claim in
the form required by any proceeding referred to in this subparagraph (ii) prior to 30 days before the expiration of the
time to file such claim or claims, then the holders of Senior Indebtedness are hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim or claims
for and on behalf of the holders of the Notes, in the form required in any such proceeding; and

 

(iii)       in
the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether
in cash, property or securities, including any such payment or distribution that may be payable or deliverable by reason of the payment
of any other indebtedness of the Company being subordinate to the payment of the Notes shall be received by the Trustee or holders of
the Notes before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, such payment or distribution shall be paid over to the trustee in bankruptcy,
receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee, agent or other Person making payment of assets of the Company for all Senior Indebtedness
remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution
to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.

 

    12 

     

    

 

Subject
to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the holders of the Notes shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of
Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Company applicable to the Senior
Indebtedness until the principal of and interest on the Notes shall be paid in full and no such payments or distributions to holders
of such Senior Indebtedness to which the holders of the Notes would be entitled except for the provisions of Section 16.01 of the
Base Indenture and this Section 2.06, of cash, property or securities otherwise distributable to the holders of
Senior Indebtedness shall, as between the Company, its creditors, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of
the Notes, be deemed to be a payment by the Company to or on account of the Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the
provisions of this Section 2.06 are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the holders
of the Notes, on the one hand, and the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand. Upon any payment or distribution of assets
of the Company referred to in this Section 2.06, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes shall be entitled to rely upon
any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such proceeding for the insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership,
liquidation or other marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company is pending or upon a certificate of the liquidating
trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Trustee or to the holders of the Notes for the purpose of
ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness
of the Company, the amount hereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts
pertinent thereto or to this Section 2.06. In the absence of any such liquidating trustee, agent or other Person, the
Trustee shall be entitled to rely upon a written notice by a Person representing itself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a
trustee or representative on behalf of such holder) as evidence that such Person is a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or is such a
trustee or representative). With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only
such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Section 2.06, and no implied covenants or
obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness shall be read into this Section 2.06 against the
Trustee. The Trustee, however, shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness by reason of the
execution of the Base Indenture, this Second Supplemental Indenture, or any other supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to
Section 2.01 or Article 10 of the Base Indenture, and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or
distribute to or on behalf of holders of the Notes or the Company moneys or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness shall
be entitled by virtue of this Section 2.06.

 

(c)       In
the event and during the continuation of any default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Senior Indebtedness,
beyond any applicable grace period, or if any event of default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness shall have occurred and be continuing,
or would occur as a result of the payment referred to hereinafter, permitting the holders of such Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on
behalf of the holders thereof) to accelerate the maturity thereof, then, unless and until such default or event of default shall have
been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no payment or principal of or interest on the Notes, shall be made by the Company.

 

(d)       Nothing
contained in the Base Indenture, this Second Supplemental Indenture, any other supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section
2.01 or Article 10 of the Base Indenture, or in any of the Notes shall: (i) impair, as between the Company, its creditors, other than
the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and holders of the Notes, the obligations of the Company, which are unconditional and absolute, to
make, or prevent the Company from making, at any time except as provided in clauses (b), (c), or (j) of
this Section 2.06, payments of principal of, or interest (including interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of any
proceeding for the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Company under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law now or hereafter
in effect) on, the Notes, as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Notes; (ii) affect the
relative rights of the Holders of the Notes and creditors of the Company other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness; (iii) except
as otherwise expressly provided in the Base Indenture, this Second Supplemental Indenture and the Notes with respect to the limitation
on the rights of the Trustee and the holders of Notes, to accelerate the maturity of the Notes and pursue remedies upon such an acceleration,
prevent the holder of any Notes or the Trustee from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default thereunder,
subject to the rights, if any, under this Section 2.06 of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property
or securities of the Company received upon the exercise of such remedy; or (iv) prevent the application by the Trustee or any Paying Agent
of any moneys deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or prevent the
receipt by the Trustee or any Paying Agent of such moneys, if, prior to the third Business Day prior to such deposit, the Trustee or such
Paying Agent did not have written notice of any event prohibiting the making of such deposit by the Company.

 

(e)       Each
holder by his acceptance of any Notes authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee on such holder’s behalf to take such action as
may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination provided in the Indenture, and appoints the Trustee such holder’s
attorney-in-fact for such purposes, including, in the event of any termination, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of the Company
(whether in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization or similar proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors
by the Company, a marshalling of the assets and liabilities of the Company) tending toward the liquidation of the property and assets
of the Company, the filing of a claim for the unpaid balance of the Notes in the form required in those proceedings.

 

    13 

     

    

 

The
Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the Company from making any
payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the Notes pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.06 or Article 16 of
the Base Indenture. The Trustee shall not be charged with the knowledge of the existence of any default or event of default with respect
to any Senior Indebtedness or of any other facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee unless and until the
Trustee shall have received notice in writing at its Corporate Trust Office to that effect signed by an Officer of the Company, or by
a holder of Senior Indebtedness or a trustee or agent thereof; and prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall,
subject to Article 7 of the Base Indenture, be entitled to assume that no such facts exist; provided that, if the Trustee shall not have
received the notice provided for in this Section 2.06 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which, by the
terms of the Indenture, any monies shall become payable for any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of
or interest on any Note), then, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive
any monies from the Company and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by
any notice to the contrary that may be received by it on or after such prior date except for an acceleration of the Notes prior to such
application. The foregoing shall not apply if the Paying Agent is the Company. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to
it of a written notice by a Person representing himself or itself to be a holder of any Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee on behalf of,
or agent of, such holder) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness or a trustee or agent on
behalf of any such holder. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that any evidence is required with respect to the right
of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Section 2.06 or
Article 16 of the Base Indenture, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee
as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment
or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Section 2.06 or Article 16 of the
Base Indenture and, if such evidence is not furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending such evidence
being furnished to the Trustee or a judicial determination that such Person has the right to receive such payment.

 

(f)       Notwithstanding
the provisions of this Section 2.06 or any other provisions of the Indenture, neither the Trustee nor any Paying Agent shall be charged
with knowledge of the existence of any Senior Indebtedness or of any event that would prohibit the making of any payment or moneys to
or by the Trustee or such Paying Agent, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall have received
written notice thereof from the Company or from the holder of any Senior Indebtedness or from the representative of any such holder.

 

(g)       The
Trustee shall be entitled to all of the rights set forth in this Section 2.06 in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at
any time held by it in its individual capacity to the extent set forth in Section 7.04 of the Base Indenture.

 

(h)       The
failure to make a payment pursuant to the Notes by reason of any provision in this Section 2.06 shall not be construed
as preventing the occurrence of a default or any Event of Default.

 

(i)       Nothing
contained in this Section 2.06 shall apply to the claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section
7.06 of the Base Indenture.

 

(j)       The
subordination provisions in this Section 2.06 or Article 16 of the Base Indenture do not apply to amounts due to the
Trustee in its capacity as such pursuant to other sections of the Indenture, including Section 7.06 of the Base Indenture.

Section
2.07. Events of Default; Acceleration. All of the Events of Default set forth in clauses (a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) of Section
6.01 of the Base Indenture will apply with respect to the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, because the Company will treat
the Notes as Tier 2 capital (or its then equivalent if the Company were subject to such capital requirement) for purposes of capital adequacy
guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board as then in effect and applicable to the Company, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default other
than an Event of Default set forth in clause (d) or (e) of Section 6.01 of the Base Indenture, neither the Trustee nor the holders of
the Notes may accelerate the maturity of the Notes and make the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, the Notes, immediately
due and payable. Solely with respect to the Notes, and not for the purposes of any other Securities, clause (d) and (e) of Section 6.01
of the Base Indenture shall be replaced in their entirety with the following:

 

“(d)
a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall enter a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case
under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee,
custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for any substantial part of the property of the Company, or ordering
the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs and such decree or order shall remain unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive
days; or

 

(e)
the Company shall commence a voluntary case under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law now or hereafter in effect,
or shall consent to the entry of an order for relief in an involuntary case under any such law, or shall consent to the appointment of
or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or similar official) of the Company or for
any substantial part of the property of the Company, or shall make any general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or”.

 

Section
2.08. No Sinking Fund. The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

 

Section
2.09. No Conversion or Exchange Rights. The Notes shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any equity securities,
other securities or other assets of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company.

 

Section

ARTICLE 3

REDEMPTION OF THE NOTES

 

Section
3.01. Optional Redemption. The Notes shall not be redeemable prior to September 1, 2027, except as provided in Section
3.02. The Company may redeem the Notes, at its sole option, beginning with the Interest Payment Date of September 1, 2027 and on any
Interest Payment Date thereafter, in whole or in part, from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, and any such redemption may be subject
to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent set forth in the applicable notice of redemption (an “Optional Redemption”).
No such Optional Redemption of the Notes by the Company prior to the Maturity Date shall be made without the prior approval of the Federal
Reserve Board, to the extent that such approval is then required under the rules of the Federal Reserve Board. The Notes are not subject
to repayment at the option of the holders of Notes.

 

Section
3.02. Redemption of Special Events. Other than in the case of an Optional Redemption, the Notes may not be redeemed by the
Company prior to the Maturity Date, except the Company may, at its sole option, redeem the Notes at any time before the Maturity Date
in whole, but not in part, upon or after the occurrence of a Tax Event, a Tier 2 Capital Event or if the Company is required to register
as an investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.), as amended. Any such redemption of
the Notes will be at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest
to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, and any such redemption may be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent
set forth in the applicable notice of redemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on any Notes that are due and
payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to the applicable Redemption Date will be payable on such Interest Payment Dates
to the holders of the Notes at the close of business on the relevant record dates specified in Sections 2.05(a) and (b) above
in accordance with the Notes and this Indenture. No such redemption of the Notes by the Company prior to the Maturity Date shall be made
without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board, to the extent that such approval is then required under the rules of the Federal
Reserve Board.

 

Section
3.03. Notice to Trustee. If the Company elects to redeem the Notes pursuant to the redemption provisions of Section
3.01 or Section 3.02, at least 15 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be agreed to in
writing by the Trustee) but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date, the Company shall furnish to the Trustee an Officer’s
Certificate setting forth (i) the applicable section of this Indenture pursuant to which the redemption shall occur, (ii) the Redemption
Date, (iii) the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, (iv) the redemption price and (v) a Board Resolution.

 

    15 

     

    

 

Section
3.04. Partial Redemption. In the case of a redemption pursuant to Section 3.01, if less than all of the Notes
are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed will be selected in accordance with the rules of DTC (or, in the case of any certificated
Notes, by lot, on a pro rata basis or in such other manner the Trustee deems fair and appropriate unless otherwise required by law). The
Trustee shall promptly notify in writing the Company of the Notes selected for redemption and, in the case of any Notes selected for partial
redemption, the principal amount thereof to be redeemed. Notes and portions of Notes selected shall be in minimum amounts of $1,000 or
integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof; no Notes of a principal amount of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part, except that
if all of the Notes of a holder are to be redeemed, the entire outstanding amount of Notes held by such holder, even if not equal to $1,000
or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, shall be redeemed. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, provisions of this
Indenture that apply to Notes called for redemption also apply to portions of Notes called for redemption.

 

Section
3.05. Notice to Holders. In the case of any redemption, at least 15 days but no more than 60 days before the Redemption Date,
the Company shall send in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary, or if the Notes are not then global Securities
the Company shall mail, or cause to be mailed, a notice of redemption by first-class mail to each holder of Notes to be redeemed at such
holder’s registered address appearing on the register (with a copy to the Trustee). The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed
(including the CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers thereof, if any) and shall state:

 

(a)       the
Redemption Date;

 

(b)       the
principal amount of the Notes that are being redeemed;

 

(c)       each
Place of Payment;

 

(d)       the
redemption price and accrued interest to the Redemption Date that is payable pursuant to Section 3.02 of the Base Indenture;

 

(e)       if
fewer than all outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the portion of the principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed and that, after
the Redemption Date and upon surrender of such Notes, if applicable, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
will be issued;

 

(f)       the
name and address of the Paying Agent;

 

(g)       that
Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

 

(h)       that
unless the Company defaults in making the redemption payment, interest on Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the
Redemption Date;

 

(i)       if
such notice is conditioned upon the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such conditions precedent;

 

(j)       the
applicable section of this Indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

 

(k)       that
no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP and/or ISIN numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed
on the Notes.

 

The
Company may state in the notice of redemption that another Person may make payment of the redemption price and perform its obligations
with respect to redemption or purchase.

 

At
the Company’s request, the Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at its expense;
provided, that the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee, at least three Business Days prior to the requested date of delivery
(or such shorter period as is satisfactory to the Trustee), a Company Request requesting that the Trustee give such notice and
attaching a copy of such notice, which shall set forth the information to be stated in such notice as provided in
this Article 3. If any condition precedent to a redemption has not been satisfied, the Company will provide written
notice to the Trustee not less than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date that such condition precedent has not been
satisfied, that the notice of redemption is rescinded or delayed and that the redemption subject to the satisfaction of such
condition precedent shall not occur or shall be delayed (or that such condition precedent is waived and such redemption shall occur
or shall be delayed). The Trustee shall promptly send a copy of such notice to the holders of the Notes.

Flushing
Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under
the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal
sum of $65,000,000 U.S. DOLLARS (or such other amount as set forth in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in the Note attached hereto)
on September 1, 2032 (such date, the “Maturity Date”), unless redeemed prior to such Maturity Date, and to pay interest
thereon as set forth below:

 

From
and including August 24, 2022, to, but excluding, September 1, 2027 (unless redeemed prior to such date pursuant to Section
3.02 of the Second Supplemental Indenture (as defined herein)) (the “Fixed Rate Period”), this note
(this “Note”) will bear interest at a rate of 6.000% per year. During the Fixed Rate Period, interest on the Note
will accrue from and including August 24, 2022, and will be payable semiannually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year

Date”). The interest payable on the Note on any Fixed Period Interest Payment Date will, except as noted below, be paid to the
holder of the Note at the close of business on the 15th calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the Fixed

From
and including September 1, 2027, to, but excluding, the Maturity Date (unless redeemed prior to such date pursuant to Section
3.01 or Section 3.02 of the Second Supplemental Indenture) (the “Floating Rate Period”),
this Note will bear interest at a floating rate per year equal to the Benchmark, plus 313.0 basis points. During the Floating Rate Period,

interest that the Company pays on the Maturity Date will be paid to the Person to whom the principal will be payable. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, if the Benchmark is less than zero, then the Benchmark shall be deemed to be zero.

REVERSE
OF NOTE

 

FLUSHING
FINANCIAL CORPORATION

 

6.000% FIXED-TO-FLOATING
RATE SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2032

 

This
Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company of a series designated as the “6.000% Fixed-to-Floating
Rate Subordinated Notes Due 2032” (the “Notes”) initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $65,000,000
on August 24, 2022. Such series of Securities has been established pursuant to, and is one of an unsecured indefinite number of series
of subordinated debt securities of the Company issued or issuable under and pursuant to, the Subordinated Indenture (the “Base
Indenture”), dated as of November 22, 2021, between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee (herein
called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee), as supplemented and amended by the Second Supplemental
Indenture, between the Company and the Trustee, dated as of August 24, 2022 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture” and
the Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture
and any other indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Persons in whose names Notes are registered on the Security Register
from time to time and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note shall not be valid
until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note. The terms, conditions and provisions of the Notes are
those stated in the Indenture, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act, and those set forth in this
Note. To the extent that the terms, conditions and provisions of this Note modify, supplement or are inconsistent with those
of the Indenture, then the terms, conditions and other provisions of the Indenture shall govern to the extent such terms, conditions
and other provisions of this Note are not inconsistent with the terms, conditions and provisions made part of the Indenture by reference
to the Trust Indenture Act.

 

All
capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined herein that are defined in the Base Indenture or the Second Supplemental Indenture
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Base Indenture or the Second Supplemental Indenture. If any capitalized term used in
this Note and defined herein is also defined in the Base Indenture or the Second Supplemental Indenture, in the event of any conflict
in the meanings ascribed to such capitalized term, the definition of the capitalized term in this Note shall control. To the extent any
provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall govern and be controlling.

 

The
indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Notes, including the principal thereof and interest thereon, is, to the extent and in the
manner set forth in the Second Supplemental Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to obligations of the Company constituting
the Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the Second Supplemental Indenture) on the terms and subject to the terms and conditions as provided
and set forth in Section 2.06 of the Second Supplemental Indenture and shall rank pari passu in right of payment
with all other Notes and with all other unsecured subordinated indebtedness of the Company issued under the Indenture and not by its
terms subordinate and junior in right of payment to the promissory notes, bonds, debentures or other evidences of indebtedness of a type
that includes the Notes. Each holder by his acceptance of this Note, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions of the Indenture
and authorizes and expressly directs the Trustee on such holder’s behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate
to effectuate the subordination provided in the Indenture.

 

During
the Fixed Rate Period, interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. During the Floating
Rate Period, interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Dollar amounts resulting
from those calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward.

 

If
any Fixed Period Interest Payment Date for the Note or the date for the payment of principal for the Note occurring during the Fixed
Rate Period falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Company will postpone the interest or principal payment to the next
succeeding Business Day, but the payments made on such dates will be treated as being made on the date that the payment was first
due and the holder of the Note will not be entitled to any further interest, principal or other payments with respect to such
postponements. If any Floating Period Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the
Company will postpone the interest payment or the payment of principal and interest at the Maturity Date to the next succeeding
Business Day (and, with respect to the Maturity Date, no additional interest will accrue on the amount payable for the period from
and after the Maturity Date), unless, with respect to a Floating Period Interest Payment Date only, such day falls in the next
calendar month, in which case the Floating Period Interest Payment Date will instead be the immediately preceding day that is a
Business Day, and interest will accrue to, but excluding, such Floating Period Interest Payment Date as so adjusted.

 

     A-4

     

    

 

The
Notes are intended to be treated as Tier 2 capital (or its then equivalent if the Company were subject to such capital requirement) for
purposes of capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board as then in effect and applicable to the Company. If an Event of
Default with respect to Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal and any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes shall only
become due and payable in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Article 6 of the Base Indenture and Section 2.07 of the
Second Supplemental Indenture. Accordingly, the holder of this Note has no right to accelerate the maturity of this Note in the
event the Company fails to pay the principal of or interest on any of the Notes or fails to perform any other obligations under the Notes
or in the Indenture that are applicable to the Notes.

 

The
Notes may be redeemed by the Company as set forth in the Indenture.

 

The
Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Notes shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any equity securities,
other securities or other assets of the Company or any Subsidiary.

 

Article
XIV of the Base Indenture shall be applicable to the Notes.

 

The
Notes are issuable and may be transferred only in fully registered form without coupons, in minimum denominations of $1,000 or any amount
in excess thereof that is an integral multiple of $1,000.

 

The
Company and the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be
affected by notice to the contrary. 

 

No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest (if any) on this Security at the times, place and
rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

[This
Security is a global note, represented by one or more permanent global certificates registered in the name of the nominee of The Depository
Trust Company (each a “Global Note” and collectively, the “Global Notes”). Accordingly, unless
and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for individual certificates evidencing the Notes represented hereby, this Security may
not be transferred except as a whole by DTC to a nominee of DTC or by a nominee of DTC or by DTC or any nominee to a successor Depositary
or any nominee of such successor. Ownership of beneficial interests in this Security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership
will be effected only through, records maintained by the applicable Depositary or its nominee (with respect to interest of Persons that
have accounts with the Depositary (“Participants”) and the records of Participants (with respect to interests of Persons
other than Participants)). Beneficial interests in Notes owned by Persons that hold through Participants will be evidenced only by, and
transfers of such beneficial interests with such Participants will be effected only through, records maintained by such Participants.
Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in this Security will not be entitled to have any individual certificates and
will not be considered the owners or holders thereof under the Indenture.

 

Except
in the limited circumstances set forth in Section 2.07 of the Base Indenture, Participants and owners of beneficial interests
in the Global Notes will not be entitled to receive Securities in definitive form and will not be considered holders of Notes. None of
the Company, the Trustee or the Paying Agent will be liable for any delay by the Depositary, its nominee or any direct or indirect Participant
in identifying the beneficial owners of the related Notes. The Company and the Paying Agent may conclusively rely on, and will be protected
in relying on, instructions from the Depositary or its nominee for all purposes, including with respect to the registration and delivery,
and the respective principal amounts, of the Notes to be issued.

 

     A-5

     

    

 

Except
as provided in Section 2.07 of the Base Indenture, beneficial owners of Global Notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery
of Notes in definitive form and no Global Note will be exchangeable except for another Global Note of like denomination and tenor to
be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee. Accordingly, each Person owning a beneficial interest in a Global Note must
rely on the procedures of the Depositary and, if such Person is not a Participant, on the procedures of the Participant through which
such Person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a holder under the Notes.

 

The
laws of some jurisdictions may require that purchasers of securities take physical delivery of those securities in definitive form. Accordingly,
the ability to transfer interests in the Notes represented by a Global Note to those Persons may be limited. In addition, because the
Depositary can act only on behalf of its Participants, who in turn act on behalf of Persons who hold interests through Participants,
the ability of a Person having an interest in Notes represented by a Global Note to pledge or transfer such interest to Persons that
do not participate in the Depositary’s system, or otherwise to take actions in respect of such interest, may be affected by the
lack of a physical definitive security in respect of such interest. None of the Company, the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the
Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of
Notes by the Depositary, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of the Depositary relating to the Notes.]1

    4.600% Note due 2033

     

    KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION, a Maryland corporation (herein referred to as the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received, hereby promises to
          pay to CEDE & Co., c/o The Depository Trust Company, 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041, or registered assigns, the principal amount of [●] HUNDRED MILLION Dollars ($[●],000,000) on February 1, 2033 (the “Stated Maturity Date”), unless
          redeemed on a Redemption Date (as defined on the reverse hereof) (the Stated Maturity Date or any Redemption Date is also referred to herein as the “Maturity Date” with respect to the principal repayable on such date), and to pay interest on the
          outstanding principal amount hereof from August 24, 2022 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi‐annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1 in each year, commencing February 1,
          2023 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), at the rate of 4.600% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided
          in such Indenture, be paid to the Holder in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the January 15 or July 15 (whether or not
          a Business Day, as defined below), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (each, a “Regular Record Date”). Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
          Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the Holder in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities, if applicable) 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 referred to on the reverse hereof, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner
          not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Interest will be computed on
          the basis of a 360‐day year of twelve 30‐day months.

       

      

    
      
        

    

    The principal of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on this Note payable on the Maturity Date will be paid against
      presentation of this Note at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York. The Company hereby appoints The Bank of New York Mellon (successor by merger to IBJ Schroder Bank &
      Trust Company) as Paying Agent for the Notes where Notes of this series may be presented or surrendered for payment and where notices, designations or requests in respect of payments with respect to the Notes may be served.

     

    Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment Date and, if applicable, on the Maturity Date, as the case may be, will
      include interest accrued from and including the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including August 24, 2022, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for on
      this Note) to but excluding such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be; provided, however, that the Company will pay any interest installment due on an Interest Payment Date that occurs on or before a Redemption Date to the
      Holder of this Note as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date.

     

    If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, principal, premium, if any, and/or
      interest payable on such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, will be paid on the succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if it were paid on the date such payment was due, and no interest shall accrue on
      the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be.  “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which banks in The City of New York are not required or
      authorized by law or executive order to close.

     

    Payments of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest by the Company in respect of this Note will be made by wire transfer of
      immediately available funds to the Holder hereof in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts.

     

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

     

    Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee by manual, facsimile or electronic signature of one
      of its authorized signatories, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

     

       

    
      
        

    

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed under its facsimile corporate seal.

    [REVERSE OF NOTE]

     

    KIMCO REALTY CORPORATION

     

    4.600% Note due 2033

     

    This Note 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 September 1, 1993, as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 4, 1994, the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 7, 1995, the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated
      as of June 2, 2006, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as April 26, 2007, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 24, 2009, the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as May 23, 2013, and the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, dated
      as of April 24, 2014 (the “Seventh Supplemental Indenture”), and as further amended or supplemented from time to time (herein called the “Indenture”) between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon (successor by merger to IBJ Schroder Bank &
      Trust Company), as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture with respect to the series of which this Note is a part), to which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference
      is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
      authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the duly authorized series of Securities designated as “4.600% Notes due 2033” (collectively, the “Notes”), and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be issued under such series is initially
      limited to $650,000,000 (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of other Notes).  However, the Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, create and issue additional Notes in
      the future having the same terms as the Notes other than the date of original issuance, the date on which interest begins to accrue, the first interest payment date and the offering price, so as to form a single series with the Notes.  All terms used
      but not defined in this Note shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture.

     

    Optional Redemption

     

    Prior to November 1, 2032 (the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date), this Note will be redeemable in whole
      at any time or in part from time to time, at the Company’s option, on a date fixed for redemption therefor (a “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the sum of (1) an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Note to be redeemed
      plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date and (2) a make-whole premium. At any time on or after November 1, 2032 (the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date), this Note will be redeemable
      in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the Company’s option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Note to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the Redemption Date.

     

       

    
      
        

    

    The make-whole premium with respect to any Note redeemed prior to November 1, 2032 (the date that is three months prior to the
      Stated Maturity Date) will be calculated as the excess, if any, of:

     

    	

             	(a)	
            the aggregate present value as of the Redemption Date of each dollar of principal being redeemed and the amount of interest (exclusive of interest accrued thereon to, but not
              including, the Redemption Date) that would have been payable in respect of such dollar if such redemption had been made on November 1, 2032 (the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date), determined by discounting, on a
              semi-annual basis, such principal and interest at the Reinvestment Rate (determined on the third Business Day preceding the date such notice of redemption is given) from the respective dates on which such principal and interest would have
              been payable if such redemption had been made on November 1, 2032 (the date that is three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date); over

          

     

    	

             	(b)	
            the principal amount of this Note.

          

     

    “Reinvestment Rate” means 0.300 percent (0.300%), plus the arithmetic mean of the yields for the immediately preceding week published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release
        H.15 that has become publicly available prior to the date of determining the make-whole premium (or if such statistical release is no longer published, any such other reasonably comparable index which shall be designated by the Company) with a
        remaining maturity ending three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date. If no maturity exactly corresponds to the remaining maturity ending three months prior to the Stated Maturity Date, the applicable Reinvestment Rate will be obtained by
        linear interpolation (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to such remaining maturity of this Note.

     

    Written notice of any redemption will be mailed or transmitted in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary at
      least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to the Holder of this Note.  Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the applicable Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on this Note or
      the portion hereof called for redemption.

     

    If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at the option of the Company, the Depositary will select Notes for redemption in
      accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary.

     

    Other Terms

     

    If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, 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.

     

    This Note is not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

      

       

    
      
        

    

    The Notes shall not be entitled to the benefit of the covenant set forth in Section 1005 of the Indenture. For purposes of
      determining compliance with Section 1014 of the Indenture, the definition of “Unencumbered Total Asset Value” has been modified by the Seventh Supplemental Indenture.

     

    The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of
      Default with respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes.

     

    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 under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Securities
      issued under the Indenture at the time outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, on behalf of the
      Holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture permit the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
      Securities of any series, in certain instances, to waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Securities of such series, 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 other Notes issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon
      this Note.

     

    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 and premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

     

    As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is
      registrable in the Security Register of the Company upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and 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 by his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of
      authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

     

    As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like
      aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations but otherwise having the same terms and conditions, as requested by the Holder hereof surrendering the same.

      

       

    The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in
      excess thereof.

     

    
      
        

    

    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 Note 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.

     

    The Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to
      agreements made and to be performed entirely in such State.
