Date”) and the Stated Maturity of the 2049 Notes shall be May 1, 2049 (the “2049 Notes Maturity Date”).

(b)              
The 2029 Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 3.566% per annum and the 2049 Notes shall

1, 2019 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of
business on the immediately preceding April 15 and October 15, respectively (each, a “Regular Record Date”).

of payment for which accrued interest is paid, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

(c)              
 Anything in the Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, if any Interest Payment Date,
Redemption Date or Maturity of the Notes of a series is not a Business Day at any Place of Payment, then payment of the principal,
premium, if any, and interest may be made on the next Business Day at that Place of Payment. In that case, no interest will accrue

Article 3.

Section 3.01.     
Optional Redemption.

(a)              
Prior to the Applicable Par Call Date, the Company may at its option redeem the Notes of a
series, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, at a Redemption Price in respect of the Notes to be redeemed equal
to the greater of the following amounts, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding,
the Optional Redemption Date therefor:

(i)                
100% of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes being redeemed on such Optional Redemption
Date; and

(ii)             
the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest
on such Notes being redeemed that would be due if the series of such Notes to be redeemed matured on the Applicable Par Call Date
(not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to such Optional Redemption Date) discounted to such Optional Redemption
Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus
the Applicable Spread for the series of such Notes to be redeemed.

(b)              
On and after the Applicable Par Call Date, the Company may at its option redeem the Notes
of a series, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal
amount of such Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Optional Redemption
Date therefor. 

(c)              
If the Company redeems Notes of a series at its option, then (a) notwithstanding the foregoing
(and without duplication), installments of interest on the Notes of such series that are due and payable on any Interest Payment
Date falling on or prior to an Optional Redemption Date for the Notes of such series will be payable on that Interest Payment Date
to the Holders thereof as of the close of business on the Regular Record Date immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date,
according to the terms of the Notes of such series and the Indenture and (b) the Redemption Price for such Notes will, if applicable,
be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

pursuant to Section 3.01, the Company (or, at the Company’s request, the Trustee on behalf of the Company) shall transmit
notice of such redemption at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date for such redemption (any such Redemption
Date, as delayed pursuant to Section 3.04, if applicable, an “Optional Redemption Date”) to each registered
Holder of the Notes of the particular series to be redeemed in whole or in part. Such notice of redemption shall specify the aggregate
principal amount of such Notes to be redeemed (or, if such Notes are to be redeemed in whole, that such Notes are to be redeemed
in whole), the CUSIP and ISIN numbers of such Notes to be redeemed, the date fixed as the Optional Redemption Date for such redemption,
the Redemption Price for such Notes to be redeemed (or if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), any conditions
applicable to such redemption, the place or places of payment and that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of
such Notes. In addition, if any conditions are applicable to such redemption, such notice of redemption shall state that the Company
may delay the Optional Redemption Date for such redemption until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, and
may rescind any related notice of redemption, in which case such redemption shall not occur, in the event that any or all such
conditions shall not have been satisfied by the date fixed as the Optional Redemption Date or, if applicable, by the Optional Redemption
Date so delayed.

(b)              
Once notice of redemption is sent to Holders, Notes called for redemption will, subject to
satisfaction of the conditions, if any, set forth in such notice of redemption, become due and payable on the Optional Redemption
Date for such Notes at the Redemption Price for such series of Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any,
to, but excluding, such Optional Redemption Date. On or before 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on such Optional Redemption Date,
the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or, if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent,
the Company will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.03 of the Base Indenture) an amount of U.S. Dollars
sufficient to redeem on such Optional Redemption Date all of such Notes so called for redemption and that become so due and payable
at the appropriate Redemption Price for such Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding,
such Optional Redemption Date. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price for the Notes called for redemption
or in the payment of accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, such Optional Redemption Date, commencing
on such Optional Redemption Date interest on such Notes so called for redemption and that become so due and payable will cease
to accrue and Holders of such Notes will have no rights with respect to such Notes except the right to receive the Redemption Price
for such Notes and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, such Optional Redemption Date.

Section 3.03.     
Partial Redemption. If fewer than all of the Notes of a particular series are to be
redeemed by the Company pursuant to Section 3.01, selection of such Notes to be redeemed will be made pro rata or by lot
by the Trustee, or by such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate; provided that if all of the Notes of such
series are represented by one or more Global Securities, interests in the Notes of such series to be redeemed will be selected
for redemption by the Depositary in accordance with its standard procedures therefor. Upon surrender of any Note redeemed in part,
the Holder will receive a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the surrendered Note. No Notes of a principal
amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.

    	 	 9	 

     

    

Section 3.04.     
Conditional Redemption. Any redemption pursuant to this Article 3 may, in the
Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent. If a redemption pursuant to this
Article 3 is subject to the satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the Company may delay the Optional Redemption
Date for such redemption until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, and may rescind any related notice of
redemption, in which case such redemption shall not occur, in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied
by the date fixed as the Optional Redemption Date or, if applicable, by the Optional Redemption Date so delayed.

upon the Security Register for the Notes as the absolute owner of this Note (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding
any notice of ownership or writing thereon made by anyone other than the Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or
on account of the principal of and, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, interest on this Note and for all other purposes;
