WHEREAS, the Notes constitute a separate Series of Notes to be issued under the Base Indenture, as supplemented by this First Supplemental Indenture (as so supplemented and as may be further supplemented or amended with respect to the Notes, the “Indenture”), and are subject to the terms contained therein and herein; and

WHEREAS, all acts and things necessary to make the Notes, when executed by an Officer of the Company and authenticated and delivered by or on behalf of the Trustee as provided in the Indenture, the valid, binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to make this First Supplemental Indenture a legal, binding and enforceable agreement, have been done and performed, and the execution of the Indenture and the issuance hereunder of the Notes have in all respects been duly authorized.

NOW, THEREFORE, in order to declare the terms and conditions upon which the Notes are authenticated, issued and delivered, and in consideration of the foregoing premises and the purchase of such Notes by the Holders thereof, the Company and the Trustee mutually covenant and agree, for the benefit of each other and for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders from time to time of the Notes, as follows:

Once notice of redemption is mailed or sent, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent provided in the notice of redemption, the Notes called for redemption will become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price.

(o)    The Notes will not be exchangeable for or convertible into common shares of the Company or any other security.

(p)    The Notes will be issuable in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 3.    Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

(a)    If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs with respect to the Notes and the Company has not exercised its option to redeem the Notes in accordance with the terms of this First Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof, provided that any portion not repurchased shall be in a principal amount of at least $2,000) of such Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth herein. In a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes to be repurchased to, but not including, the date of repurchase (a “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of the Holders of Notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

(b)    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, the Company shall deliver to Holders of Notes, with a copy of such notice delivered to the Trustee, describing the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date shall be at least 30 days but no more than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (a “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice shall, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

8

(c)    Any exercise by a Holder of its election to accept the Change of Control Offer shall be irrevocable. The Change of Control Offer may be accepted for less than the entire principal amount of such Note, but in that event the principal amount of such Note remaining outstanding after repurchase must be equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(d)    On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i)    accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer and not validly withdrawn;

(f)    The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under 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 Notes 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 Notes, the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

Section 4.    Limitation on Liens.

(a)    The Company will not itself, and will not permit any Consolidated Subsidiary to, issue, assume or guarantee any Indebtedness, if such Indebtedness is secured by mortgage, pledge, security interest or other lien or encumbrance (any mortgage, pledge, security interest or other lien or encumbrance being hereinafter in this Section 4 referred to as a “Lien”) upon or with respect to any Principal Property or on the capital stock of any Consolidated Subsidiary that owns any Principal Property (unless all obligations and indebtedness thereby secured are held by the Company or a Consolidated Subsidiary) without making effective provision whereby the Notes shall be secured by such Lien equally and ratably with any and all other obligations and

THIS NOTE IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR NOTES REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A PERSON OTHER THAN THE DEPOSITARY OR ITS NOMINEE ONLY IN THE LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES DESCRIBED IN THE INDENTURE, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED EXCEPT AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITARY TO A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY, BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY TO THE DEPOSITARY OR ANOTHER NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITARY OR BY THE DEPOSITARY OR ANY SUCH NOMINEE TO A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY OR A NOMINEE OF SUCH A SUCCESSOR DEPOSITARY.

CONAGRA BRANDS, INC.

0.500% Senior Note due 2023

Conagra Brands, Inc., a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called 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 [        ] DOLLARS ($[        ]), or such other principal sum as shall be set forth in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases attached hereto, on August 11, 2023, and to pay interest thereon at a rate equal to 0.500% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), semi-annually on February 11 and August 11, beginning on February 11, 2022. The interest, so payable on February 11 and August 11 shall, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Indenture referred to herein, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the preceding January 27 or July 27, as the case may be (whether or not a Business Day). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any day on which interest is payable on this Note is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of such delay), with the same force and effect as if made on such date.

Principal and interest on this Note are payable at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, except as otherwise provided in this Global Note, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. At the option of the Company, interest may be paid by check to the Person entitled thereto at his last address as it appears on the registry books, and principal may be paid by check to the registered Holder hereof or other Person entitled thereto against surrender of this Note.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of notes (hereinafter called the “Securities”) of the Company of the Series hereinafter specified, which Series is as of the date of original issuance of this Note limited in the aggregate principal amount to $500,000,000, all such Securities issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 12, 2021,

A-1

as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 12, 2021 (hereinafter referred to as the “Indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (hereinafter referred to as the “Trustee” which term shall also include any successor or co-trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. As provided in the Indenture, the Securities may be issued in one or more Series, which different Series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may be denominated in currencies other than Dollars (including composite currencies), may mature at different times, may bear interest, if any, at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions, if any, may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds, if any, may be subject to different covenants and Events of Default and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided or permitted. This Note is one of a series of Global Notes (each a “Global Note”) which represent all of the Company’s 0.500% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”). Provided the Company complies with the requirements of the Indenture, the Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the Notes, create and issue additional senior debt securities ranking equally with the Notes and otherwise similar in all respects (except for the date of issuance and, under certain circumstances, the initial interest payment date, the date from which interest thereon will begin to accrue and the issue price) so that the Notes and the additional senior debt securities would form a single Series of Securities under the Indenture.

Prior to August 11, 2022, the Company will have the right to redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at its option at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the sum, as determined by an Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would be due if the Notes matured on August 11, 2022 (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 0.100%, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including, the date of redemption. Calculation of the redemption price will be made by the Company or on its behalf by such person as the Company shall designate; provided that such calculation or the correctness thereof shall not be a duty or obligation of the Trustee.

On or after August 11, 2022, the Company will have the right to redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at its option at any time and 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 on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including, the date of redemption.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed by first class mail or otherwise delivered in accordance with applicable procedures of The Depository Trust Company at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. Any notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of one or more conditions precedent. In that case, the notice shall state the nature of such condition precedent.

No mandatory redemption obligation will be applicable to the Notes. The Notes will not be subject to, nor have the benefit of, a sinking fund.

A-2

If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, the Company shall be required to make an offer to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase such Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance and discharge at the Company’s option of the entire principal of all the Securities of any Series upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared, or shall ipso facto become, as applicable, 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 or elimination 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 with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding, of all Series to be affected thereby. It is also provided in the Indenture that, with respect to certain defaults or Events of Default regarding the Securities of any Series, prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of such Securities, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all Series at the time outstanding with respect to which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such Series waive any such past default or Event of Default and its consequences. The preceding sentence shall not, however, apply to a default in the payment of premium or interest on, or the principal of, any of the Securities. 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 of any Note 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 Global 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 interest on this Global Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

This Note is a Global Note registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depositary. Beneficial interests in this Note will be shown on, and transfers thereof will be effected only through, records maintained by the Depositary and the participants of the Depositary. Except as described below, Notes in certificated form will not be issued in exchange for this Global Note.

If the Depositary for the Notes represented by this Global Note is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary or if at any time such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, a successor Depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act is not appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Notes, the

A-3

Company shall issue such Notes in definitive form in exchange for this Global Note. In addition, the Company may at any time and in its sole discretion, but subject to the procedures of the Depositary, determine not to have the Notes represented by one or more Global Notes and, in such event, shall issue Notes in definitive form in exchange for the Global Note or Notes representing the Notes.

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

This Note shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or such Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided, subject to the record date provisions of this Note, and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon and neither the Company, such Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Note, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof.

All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Indenture.
