2.900% NOTE DUE 2032

ARCHER-DANIELS-MIDLAND COMPANY, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of Delaware (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to herein), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the principal sum set forth on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in Global Security attached hereto on March 1, 2032 (the “Maturity Date”), and to pay interest thereon from February 28, 2022, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on March 1 and September 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), beginning September 1, 2022, at the rate of 2.900% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. 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 Person in whose name this Security (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 15^th calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable at the Maturity Date or on any Redemption Date will be payable to the Person to whom principal shall be payable. Interest on the Securities of this series will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

Interest payable on the Securities of this series on any Interest Payment Date, any Redemption Date or the Maturity Date shall be the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the next preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the original issue date of such Securities of this series, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date, such Redemption Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If any Interest Payment Date for the Securities of this series falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the interest payment will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, but no additional interest will accrue as a result of the delay in payment. If the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date of the Securities of this series falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next succeeding Business Day. The rights of holders of beneficial interests of Securities of this series to receive the payments of interest on such Securities are subject to the applicable procedures of The Depository Trust Company. Unless otherwise noted, “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions and trust companies in The City of New York are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

Payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, which, subject

1

to the right of the Company to vary or terminate the appointment of such agency, shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled hereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

This Security is a Security for purposes of the Indenture.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the pages following the certificate of authentication hereon, 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 referred to below, directly or through an Authenticating Agent, by manual signature of an authorized signatory, this Security 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 corporate seal.

in the within-mentioned Indenture.

ARCHER-DANIELS-MIDLAND COMPANY

2.900% NOTE DUE 2032

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of October 16, 2012 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the Securities of the series designated herein, limited in aggregate principal amount to $750,000,000; provided, however, that the Company, without notice to or the consent of the Holders, may issue additional Securities of this series and thereby increase such principal amount in the future, on the same terms and conditions (except for issue date and, in some cases, the public offering price, the initial date from which interest accrues and the initial Interest Payment Date) and with the same CUSIP Number and ISIN Number as the Securities of this series. A date fixed for the redemption of the Securities of this series is a “Redemption Date”.

The Securities of this series are redeemable at the option of the Company, either in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to December 1, 2031 (three months prior to the Maturity Date of the Securities of this series, the “Par Call Date”), at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of the following amounts:

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities of this series being redeemed to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

In addition, the Securities of this series are redeemable at the option of the Company, either in whole at any time or in part from time to time on and after the Par Call Date at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

In any case, the principal amount of this Security remaining outstanding after a redemption in part shall be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term (as measured from the Redemption Date) of the Securities of this series to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Securities (assuming, for this purpose, that the Securities of this series mature on the Par Call Date).

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation.

“Quotation Agent” means any Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

4

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (1) each of BNP Paribas Securities Corp. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (2) at least one other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each registered Holder of the Securities of this series to be redeemed by the Company or by the Trustee on the Company’s behalf. Once notice of redemption is mailed or electronically delivered, as applicable, the Securities of this series called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable Redemption Price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

On and after any Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities of this series or any portion of the Securities of this series called for redemption (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest). Prior to any Redemption Date, the Company will deposit with the Paying Agent or the Trustee money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of and accrued interest on the Securities of this series to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Securities of this series are to be redeemed, the Securities of this series to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by a method the Trustee deems to be appropriate or in case the Securities of this series are represented by one or more global notes, beneficial interests therein shall be selected for redemption by The Depository Trust Company in accordance with its applicable procedures therefor.

The Company shall give the Trustee notice of the Redemption Price promptly after the calculation thereof and the Trustee shall not be responsible for such calculation.

This Security shall not be subject to any sinking fund.

If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem this Security as described above, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Securities of this series to repurchase all or any part (equal to a minimum of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof (provided that the unrepurchased portion of a Security must be in a minimum principal amount of $2,000)) of the Securities of this series held by such Holder on the terms set forth in this Security. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any change of control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the change of control, a notice will be mailed or electronically delivered to the Holders of the Securities of this series describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Securities on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the change of control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful:

5

The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Company and the third party repurchases all Securities of this series properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, the Company will not repurchase any Securities of this series if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an Event of Default, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities of this series as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Securities of this series, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Securities of this series by virtue of any such conflict.

For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Securities of this series, the following terms will be applicable:

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following:

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (1) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2) either (A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that terms is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

“Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Rating Event.

“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings, Inc.

6

“Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than BBB- (or the equivalent) by Fitch, Baa3 (or the equivalent) by Moody’s and BBB- (or the equivalent) by S&P, and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any additional Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc.

“Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Fitch, Moody’s and S&P; and (2) if any of Fitch, Moody’s or S&P ceases to rate the Securities of this series or fails to make a rating of such Securities publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company (as certified by a resolution of the Board of Directors) as a replacement agency for Fitch, Moody’s or S&P, or all of them, as the case may be.

“Rating Event” means the rating on the Securities of this series is lowered by each of the Rating Agencies and such Securities are rated below an investment grade rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period (which 60-day period will be extended so long as the rating of the such Securities is under publicly announced consideration for a possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies) after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of a Change of Control and (2) public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control or the Company’s intention to effect a Change of Control; provided, however, that a Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating will not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus will not be deemed a Rating Event for purposes of the definition of “Change of Control Triggering Event”) if the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply do not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether or not the applicable Change of Control has occurred at the time of the Rating Event). If any Rating Agency is not providing a rating of the Securities of this series on any day during the relevant period for any reason and the Company has not selected a replacement Rating Agency pursuant to the terms of this Security, the rating of such Rating Agency shall be deemed to be below an Investment Grade Rating on such day and such Rating Agency will be deemed to have lowered its rating of the Securities of this series during the relevant period.

“S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc., and its successors.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) as of any date, the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.

As provided in the Indenture, defeasance may occur at any time of (a) the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Security and (b) certain restrictive covenants and the related defaults and Events of Default, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security.

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each or all series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Security of this series will have any right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall

7

have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series shall have made written request, and offered reasonable indemnity, to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of this series a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on this Security on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for herein.

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 premium, if any, and interest on this Security 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 set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in global or definitive registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth and to the limitations described below, if applicable, Securities of this series are exchangeable at said office or agency of the Company for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

This Security, if in global form, is exchangeable for Securities of this series in definitive certificated form only if (1) The Depository Trust Company (the “Depository”) notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depository for this global Security or if at any time the Depository ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and the Company has not appointed a successor Depository within 90 days of that notice or of its becoming aware of such cessation; (2) the Company in its sole discretion and subject to the procedures of the Depository determines that this Security shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities in registered form; or (3) an Event of Default, or an event which with the passage of time or the giving of notice or both would become an Event of Default, with respect to the Securities represented hereby has occurred and is continuing, provided that the definitive Securities so issued in exchange for this permanent global Security shall be in denominations of $2,000 or any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof and be of like aggregate principal amount and tenor as the portion of this permanent global Security to be exchanged. Except as provided above, owners of beneficial interests in this permanent global Security will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Securities in definitive registered form and will not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture.

Any Security in global form that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding paragraph shall be exchangeable for Securities of this series in definitive registered form registered in such names as the Depository shall direct.

Neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Security in global form or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

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 the due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes (subject to the provisions of the Indenture), whether or not this Security is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
