[REVERSE OF SECURITY]

 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company designated as its “2.750% Notes Due 2030” (herein called the “Securities”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $750,000,000 issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of January 15, 1997, as supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated the date hereof, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association (as successor in interest to State Street Bank and Trust Company, as successor in interest to Fleet National Bank), as Trustee, as it may be amended and supplemented from time to time (collectively, 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.

 

The Securities shall be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time (a “Redemption Date”).  At any time prior to December 1, 2029 (the “Par Call Date”), the redemption price will be equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of any Securities being redeemed; or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon that would be due if the Securities matured on the Par Call Date (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 20 basis points.  At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Securities will be redeemable in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities to be redeemed to the Redemption Date.  In each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Securities that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date in accordance with the Securities and the Indenture.  The Company will mail notice by first-class mail of any redemption at least 15 days, but not more than 60 days, before the Redemption Date to each registered holder of the Securities to be redeemed. Once the notice is mailed, the Securities called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.  On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or any portion of the Securities called for redemption (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the applicable redemption price and accrued interest).  On or before the Redemption Date, the Company will deposit with a paying agent (or the Trustee) money sufficient to pay the applicable redemption price of and accrued interest on the Securities to be redeemed on the Redemption Date.  If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, and the Securities are Global Securities, the Securities to be redeemed will be selected by the Depositary Trust Company (“DTC”), as the Depositary by lot.  If the Securities to be redeemed are not Global Securities then held by the DTC, the Securities to be redeemed will be selected by the Series Trustee by a method the Series Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate.

 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed that would be used, 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 the Securities (assuming, for this purpose, that the Securities matured on the Par Call Date).

 

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

 

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers or another independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.

 

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and one other treasury dealer selected by the Company, and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average 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 and the Trustee 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.

 

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

 

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (a) the entire indebtedness of this Security and (b) certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth 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 under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding.  The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities, 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 thereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

 

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, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

 

This Global Security or portion hereof may not be exchanged for Definitive Securities except in the limited circumstances provided in the Indenture.

 

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of a different authorized denomination, as requested by a Holder surrendering the same.

 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

 

In the event that (i) the Depositary or another depositary in respect of the Securities of this series, as the case may be, notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a depository and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 60 days of such notice, (ii) the Depositary with respect to such Global Securities so requests following an Event of Default under the Indenture or (iii) the owner of a beneficial interest in the Global Securities requests such exchange in writing delivered through the Depositary or the Company following an Event of Default under the Indenture, then the Holder hereof shall surrender this Global Security to the Trustee for cancellation and whereupon, in accordance with Section 305 of the Indenture, the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate and deliver Securities of this series in definitive registered form without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, and in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of this Global Security at the time outstanding in exchange for this Global Security.

Prior to 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, whether or not any amount due in respect of this Security be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

 

The Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
