Any such additional Series D Senior Notes will have the same interest rate, maturity and other terms as those initially issued, and shall be consolidated with and part of the same series of Series D Senior Notes initially issued under this Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture. Further Series D Senior Notes may also be authenticated and delivered as provided by Sections 304, 305, 306, 905 or 1107 of the Base Indenture.

The Series D Senior Notes shall be issued as Registered Securities in global form without coupons, in substantially the form set out in Exhibit A hereto.

the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by the Company (or its Designee) as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark for the applicable Corresponding Tenor giving due consideration to any industry-accepted rate of interest as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar denominated floating rate notes at such time and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company (or its Designee) as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:

(2)

if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA Fallback Rate, then the ISDA Fallback Adjustment; and

(3)

SECTION 103. Payment of Principal and Interest. The principal of the Series D Senior Notes shall be due at the Stated Maturity (unless earlier redeemed). The unpaid principal amount of the Series D Senior Notes shall bear interest at a floating rate per annum determined by the Calculation Agent as described below, until paid or duly provided for, such interest to accrue from the Original Issue Date or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for. Interest shall be paid quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name the Series D Senior Notes are registered on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date; provided that interest payable at the Stated Maturity of principal or on a Redemption Date as provided herein will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. Any such interest that is not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person or Persons in whose name the Series D Senior Notes are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Trustee (in accordance with Section 307 of the Base Indenture), notice whereof shall be given to Holders of the Series D Senior Notes not less than ten (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, if any, on which the Series D Senior Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by any such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Base Indenture.

The per annum interest rate on the Series D Senior Notes will be equal to the Three-Month LIBOR Rate plus 53 basis points (0.53%) (0.53%, the “Margin”); provided that the per annum interest rate for the period from the Original Issue Date to the first LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be 0.77613% per annum (the “Initial Interest Rate”). The per annum interest rate shall be reset on each LIBOR Rate Reset Date.

If any LIBOR Rate Reset Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that if that Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, the LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be the next preceding Business Day. The interest rate in effect on any LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on that date. The interest rate applicable to any other day will either be the Initial Interest Rate or the interest rate as reset on the immediately preceding LIBOR Rate Reset Date. Any percentage resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for the Series D Senior Notes less than 0.00% will be deemed to be 0.00% (or 0.0000).

By its acquisition of the Series D Senior Notes, each Holder (which, for these purposes, includes each beneficial owner) (i) acknowledges, accepts, consents and agrees to be bound by the determination of the Three-Month LIBOR Rate or any component thereof by the Company or the Calculation Agent, including as may occur without any prior notice from the Company and without the need for the Company to obtain any further consent from such Holder, (ii) waives any and all claims, in law and/or in equity, against the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Calculation Agent for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee, the Paying Agent and the Calculation Agent in respect of, and agrees that none of the Trustee, the Paying Agent or the Calculation Agent will be liable for, the determination of or the failure to determine any Three-Month LIBOR Rate and any losses suffered in connection therewith.

Payments of interest on the Series D Senior Notes will include interest accrued to but excluding the respective Interest Payment Dates. Interest payments for the Series D Senior Notes shall be computed and paid on the basis of the actual number of days in the relevant quarterly period (including the first day of the quarterly period and excluding the last day of the quarterly period) divided by 360. If any Interest Payment Date, other than the Stated Maturity, falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that if that Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. If the Stated Maturity falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after the Stated Maturity.

Accrued interest on any Series D Senior Note will be calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the Senior Note by an accrued interest factor. The accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the period for which interest is being paid. The interest factor for each day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to that day by 360.

Payment of the principal and interest on the Series D Senior Notes shall be made at the office of the Paying Agent 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, with any such payment that is due at the Stated Maturity of any Series D Senior Notes, or upon redemption or repurchase being made upon surrender of such Series D Senior Notes to the Paying Agent. Payments of interest (including interest on any Interest Payment Date) will be made, subject to such surrender where applicable, at the option of the Company, (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in writing to the Trustee at least sixteen (16) days prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto.

Notwithstanding the above, if the Company (or its Designee) determines on or prior to the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the Three-Month LIBOR Rate (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable), then the provisions set forth in the paragraph below, which are referred to as the benchmark transition provisions, will thereafter apply to all determinations of the rate of interest payable on the Series D Senior Notes. In accordance with the benchmark transition provisions, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the amount of interest that will be payable for each interest period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of the Benchmark Replacement and the Margin. However, if the Company (or its Designee) determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the then-current Benchmark, but for any reason the Benchmark Replacement has not been determined as of the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the interest rate for the applicable interest period will be equal to the interest rate for the immediately preceding interest period, as determined by the Company (or its Designee).

If the Company (or its Designee) determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Series D Senior Notes in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Company (or its Designee) will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company (or its Designee) pursuant to this paragraph, including any determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, will be made in the Company’s (or its Designee’s) sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or the Series D Senior Notes, shall become effective without consent from the Holders of the Series D Senior Notes or any other party.

any alternative benchmark or spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology for calculating any such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, the Calculation Agent will be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its Designee and will have no liability for such actions taken at the direction of the Company.

The Global Securities described above may not be transferred except by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary or to a successor Depositary or its nominee.

Owners of beneficial interests in such a Global Security will not be considered the Holders thereof for any purpose under the Indenture, and no Global Security representing a Series D Senior Note shall be exchangeable, except for another Global Security of like denomination and tenor to be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee or to a successor Depositary or its nominee or except as described below. The rights of Holders of such Global Security shall be exercised only through the Depositary.

A Global Security shall be exchangeable for Series D Senior Notes registered in the names of persons other than the Depositary or its nominee only if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as a Depositary for such Global Security and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company within 90 days of receipt by the Company of such notification, or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act at a time when the Depositary is required to be so registered to act as such Depositary and no successor Depositary shall have been appointed by the Company within 90 days after it becomes aware of such cessation, (ii) the Company in its sole discretion, and subject to the procedures of the Depositary, determines that such Global Security shall be so exchangeable, in which case Series D Senior Notes in definitive form will be printed and delivered to the Depositary, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Series D Senior Notes. Any Global Security that is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be exchangeable for Series D Senior Notes registered in such names as the Depositary shall direct.

SECTION 106. Redemption. The Series D Senior Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time on or after the first Business Day after the date that is 12 months following the Original Issue Date, at the option of the Company, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Series D Senior Notes then outstanding to be so redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Series D Senior Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

In the event of the redemption of the Series D Senior Notes in part only, a new Series D Senior Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion will be issued in the name or names of the Holders thereof upon surrender thereof.

Any notice of redemption shall be sent in accordance with the terms of the Base Indenture.

SECTION 107. Sinking Fund; Conversion. The Series D Senior Notes shall not have a sinking fund. The Series D Senior Notes are not convertible into or exchangeable for Equity Securities and/or any other securities.

SECTION 108. Additional Interest on Overdue Amounts. Any principal of and installment of interest on the Series D Senior Notes that is overdue shall bear interest at the then applicable interest rate (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), from the dates such amounts are due until they are paid or made available for payment, and such interest shall be payable on demand.

SECTION 109. Paying Agent; Security Registrar. The Trustee shall initially serve as Paying Agent and Security Registrar with respect to the Series D Senior Notes, with the Place of Payment initially being the Corporate Trust Office. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Security Registrar without prior notice to Holders of the Series D Senior Notes, and the Company or any of its subsidiaries may act as Paying Agent or Security Registrar.

Agent”) in accordance with the procedures referred to herein, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment, provided that any principal, and any such installment of interest, that is overdue shall bear interest at the then applicable interest rate (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), from the dates such amounts are due until they are paid or made available for payment, and such interest shall be payable on demand. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the Person in whose name this Series D Senior Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest; provided that the interest payable at Stated Maturity or on a Redemption Date will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. The Regular Record Date shall be the close of business on the Business Day preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, that with respect to Series D Senior Notes that are not represented by one or more Global Securities, the Regular Record Date shall be the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) calendar day (whether or not a Business Day) preceding such Interest Payment Date. 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 Series D Senior Note (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 Series D Senior Notes not less than ten (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 Series D Senior Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

Neither the Trustee nor the Calculation Agent will have any liability for any determination made by or on behalf of the Company or its Designee in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement. In no event shall the Calculation Agent be responsible for determining any substitute for the Three-Month LIBOR Rate, or for making any adjustments to any alternative benchmark or spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology for calculating any such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, the Calculation Agent will be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its Designee and will have no liability for such actions taken at the direction of the Company.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Series D Senior Note set forth on the reverse hereof, 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 on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Series D Senior Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

[REVERSE OF 2020 SERIES D FLOATING RATE SENIOR NOTE]

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 June 1, 2015 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), as previously supplemented and as further supplemented by a Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture dated as of September 1, 2020 (the “Twenty-First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, as it may be hereafter supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), by and between the Company and the Trustee, and reference is hereby made to the Indenture 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 series designated on the face hereof (the “Series D Senior Notes”) which is unlimited in aggregate principal amount.

The Series D Senior Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

If an Event of Default with respect to Series D Senior Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Series D Senior Notes 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 for the series of Securities affected, with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Series D Senior Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Series D Senior Note and of any Series D Senior Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Series D Senior Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Series D Senior Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Series D Senior Notes, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Series D Senior Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Series D Senior Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding for

sixty (60) days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Series D Senior Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or premium, if any, or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Series D Senior Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Series D Senior Note at the times, place 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 Series D Senior Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Series D Senior Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Series D Senior Note are payable, 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 Series D Senior Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Series D Senior Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any greater integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Series D Senior Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Series D Senior Notes having the same Stated Maturity and of like tenor of any authorized denominations as requested by the Holder upon surrender of the Series D Senior Note or Series D Senior Notes to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Company.

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 due presentment of this Series D Senior Note 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 this Series D Senior Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

All terms used in this Series D Senior Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
