This Note is one of the Notes due February 26, 2029 (the “Notes”) issued under an Indenture, dated as of February 26, 2024, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Base Indenture”) and established pursuant to a First Supplemental Indenture dated February 26, 2024, issued pursuant to Section 301 and Section 901 of the Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). This Note is a Security and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture.

Defined Terms

Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “Trust Indenture Act”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

“Acquisition” means the acquisition of Splunk Inc. by the Company, as contemplated in the Merger Agreement.

C-5

“Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close in New York, New York.

“Merger Agreement” means the merger agreement, dated September 20, 2023, among the Company, Splunk Inc. and Spirit Merger Corp., as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any optional Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs:

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities—Treasury constant maturities—Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields—one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life—and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straightline basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.

If on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the maturity date of the Notes, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the

C-6

preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

Optional Redemption

The Notes shall be redeemable as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at any time and from time to time prior to January 26, 2029 (one month prior to the maturity date of the Notes) (the “Par Call Date”) at a Redemption Price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of (1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming for such purpose that the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

The Notes shall be redeemable as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at any time and from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the Redemption Price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of record of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered address.

The notice of redemption for the Notes will state, among other things, the amount of Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the manner in which the Redemption Price will be calculated and the place or places that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes to be redeemed.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, interest will cease to accrue on any Notes that have been called for redemption at the Redemption Date. If less than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Notes of such series to be redeemed will be selected according to DTC procedures, in the case of Notes represented by a global note, or by lot, in the case of Notes that are not represented by a global note.

C-7

Special Mandatory Redemption

In the event that (i) the Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to the later of (1) March 20, 2025 (the “Outside Date”) or (2) the date that is five Business Days after any later date to which the parties to the Merger Agreement may agree to extend the Outside Date in the Merger Agreement (the “Special Mandatory Redemption End Date”) or (ii) the Company notifies the Trustee under the Indenture that the Company will not pursue consummation of the Acquisition (any such event, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), then the Company will be required to redeem all of the outstanding Notes (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of such Notes of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date falling prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date) (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”). Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price, on and after such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes to be redeemed.

In the event that the Company becomes obligated to redeem the Notes pursuant to the Special Mandatory Redemption, the Company will promptly, and in any event not more than 10 Business Days after the Special Mandatory Redemption Event, deliver notice to the Trustee of the Special Mandatory Redemption and the date upon which the Notes will be redeemed (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”), which date shall be no later than the tenth business day following the date of such notice unless some longer minimum period may be required by DTC (or any successor Depositary), together with a notice of Special Mandatory Redemption for the Trustee to deliver to each registered Holder of Notes. The Trustee will then reasonably promptly mail or electronically deliver (or otherwise transmit in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) such notice of Special Mandatory Redemption to each registered Holder of notes.

On or before the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Company will pay to a Paying Agent for payment to each Holder of the Notes the applicable Special Mandatory Redemption Price for such Holder’s Notes.

Failure to make the Special Mandatory Redemption, if required in accordance with the terms described above, will constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

Upon the consummation of the Acquisition, these “Special Mandatory Redemption” provisions will cease to apply. For the purposes of these “Special Mandatory Redemption” provisions, the Acquisition will be deemed consummated if the closing under the Merger Agreement occurs, including after giving effect to any amendments or modifications to the Merger Agreement or waivers thereunder acceptable to us.

Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

The Notes are in registered form without interest coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture.

C-8

Amendment; Supplement; Waiver

Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) under the Indenture that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting as a single class). Without the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may enter into one or more indentures supplemental thereto, among other things, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision of the Indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision therein or to add to, change or eliminate any provision of the Indenture as shall be necessary or desirable in accordance with any amendments to the Trust Indenture Act.

Defaults and Remedies

If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Company) under the Indenture occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series then Outstanding (including the Notes) voting together as a single class, shall by written notice, require the Company to repay immediately the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, together with all accrued and unpaid interest. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series (including the Notes) at the time Outstanding (voting together as a single class) to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain Defaults or Events of Default if and so long as a committee of the Trustee’s Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of Holders of Notes.

Authentication

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually or electronically signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.

If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series (including the Notes) at the time Outstanding (voting together as a single class) to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain Defaults or Events of Default if and so long as a committee of the Trustee’s Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of Holders of Notes.

This Note is one of the Notes due February 26, 2034 (the “Notes”) issued under an Indenture, dated as of February 26, 2024, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Base Indenture”) and established pursuant to a First Supplemental Indenture dated February 26, 2024, issued pursuant to Section 301 and Section 901 of the Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). This Note is a Security and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture.

Defined Terms

Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “Trust Indenture Act”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

“Acquisition” means the acquisition of Splunk Inc. by the Company, as contemplated in the Merger Agreement.

E-5

“Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close in New York, New York.

“Merger Agreement” means the merger agreement, dated September 20, 2023, among the Company, Splunk Inc. and Spirit Merger Corp., as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any optional Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs:

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities—Treasury constant maturities—Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the period from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date (the “Remaining Life”); or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields—one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life—and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straightline basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the Redemption Date.

If on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such Redemption Date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the maturity date of the Notes, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the

E-6

preceding sentence, the Company shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

Optional Redemption

The Notes shall be redeemable as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at any time and from time to time prior to November 26, 2033 (three months prior to the maturity date of the Notes) (the “Par Call Date”) at a Redemption Price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of (1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming for such purpose that the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

The Notes shall be redeemable as a whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at any time and from time to time on or after the Par Call Date, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date.

The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the Redemption Price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered at least 10 but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of record of the Notes to be redeemed at its registered address.

The notice of redemption for the Notes will state, among other things, the amount of Notes to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, the manner in which the Redemption Price will be calculated and the place or places that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of Notes to be redeemed.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, interest will cease to accrue on any Notes that have been called for redemption at the Redemption Date. If less than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Notes of such series to be redeemed will be selected according to DTC procedures, in the case of Notes represented by a global note, or by lot, in the case of Notes that are not represented by a global note.

E-7

Special Mandatory Redemption

In the event that (i) the Acquisition is not consummated on or prior to the later of (1) March 20, 2025 (the “Outside Date”) or (2) the date that is five Business Days after any later date to which the parties to the Merger Agreement may agree to extend the Outside Date in the Merger Agreement (the “Special Mandatory Redemption End Date”) or (ii) the Company notifies the Trustee under the Indenture that the Company will not pursue consummation of the Acquisition (any such event, a “Special Mandatory Redemption Event”), then the Company will be required to redeem all of the outstanding Notes (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a redemption price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the Special Mandatory Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of such Notes of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date falling prior to the Special Mandatory Redemption Date) (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Price”). Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Special Mandatory Redemption Price, on and after such Special Mandatory Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes to be redeemed.

In the event that the Company becomes obligated to redeem the Notes pursuant to the Special Mandatory Redemption, the Company will promptly, and in any event not more than 10 Business Days after the Special Mandatory Redemption Event, deliver notice to the Trustee of the Special Mandatory Redemption and the date upon which the Notes will be redeemed (the “Special Mandatory Redemption Date”), which date shall be no later than the tenth business day following the date of such notice unless some longer minimum period may be required by DTC (or any successor Depositary), together with a notice of Special Mandatory Redemption for the Trustee to deliver to each registered Holder of Notes. The Trustee will then reasonably promptly mail or electronically deliver (or otherwise transmit in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) such notice of Special Mandatory Redemption to each registered Holder of notes.

On or before the Special Mandatory Redemption Date, the Company will pay to a Paying Agent for payment to each Holder of the Notes the applicable Special Mandatory Redemption Price for such Holder’s Notes.

Failure to make the Special Mandatory Redemption, if required in accordance with the terms described above, will constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

Upon the consummation of the Acquisition, these “Special Mandatory Redemption” provisions will cease to apply. For the purposes of these “Special Mandatory Redemption” provisions, the Acquisition will be deemed consummated if the closing under the Merger Agreement occurs, including after giving effect to any amendments or modifications to the Merger Agreement or waivers thereunder acceptable to us.

Denominations; Transfer; Exchange

The Notes are in registered form without interest coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture.

E-8

Amendment; Supplement; Waiver

Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) under the Indenture that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting as a single class). Without the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may enter into one or more indentures supplemental thereto, among other things, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision of the Indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision therein or to add to, change or eliminate any provision of the Indenture as shall be necessary or desirable in accordance with any amendments to the Trust Indenture Act.

Defaults and Remedies

If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Company) under the Indenture occurs with respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series then Outstanding (including the Notes) voting together as a single class, shall by written notice, require the Company to repay immediately the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, together with all accrued and unpaid interest. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (including the Notes) will automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series (including the Notes) at the time Outstanding (voting together as a single class) to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain Defaults or Events of Default if and so long as a committee of the Trustee’s Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is not opposed to the interests of Holders of Notes.
