Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc., a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein 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 Amount specified above, as revised by the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Note attached hereto, on the Maturity Date specified above and to pay to the registered holder of this Note (the “Holder”) interest on said Principal Amount at a rate per annum specified above and upon the terms provided below under either the heading “Provisions Applicable to Fixed Rate Notes Only” or “Provisions Applicable to Floating Rate Notes Only.”
This Note is one of the Company’s duly authorized issue of notes in the series titled 3.050% Medium-Term Notes due 2027 (herein referred to as the “Notes”), all issued or to be issued under an indenture, dated as of December 18, 2020 (as may be supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Harley-Davidson Credit Corp. (the “Guarantor”) and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantor and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes of this series are limited (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture) to the aggregate principal amount established from time to time by the Company Board of Directors. The Notes of this series may be issued at various times with different maturity dates and different principal repayment provisions, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary, all as provided in the Indenture. The Notes of this series may be subject to redemption upon notice and in accordance with the provisions of this Note and the Indenture. The Company and the Guarantor may defease the Notes of this series in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.
To secure the due and punctual payment of principal, any premium, any interest and Additional Amounts (as defined in the Indenture) on this Note by the Company under the Indenture, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Maturity Date, by




declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, the Guarantor has unconditionally guaranteed this Note pursuant to the terms of the Guarantee endorsed hereon and in Article Sixteen of the Indenture (the “Guarantee”).
As used herein, the term “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the City of New York; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above, the day is also not a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing such Specified Currency or, if such Specified Currency is the Euro, the day is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) System is open; provided further that if LIBOR is indicated above to be an applicable Interest Rate Basis, the day is also a London Banking Day (as defined below).
Principal Financial Center” means, unless otherwise provided in this Note, the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency; except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, South African rand and Swiss francs, the “Principal Financial Center” will be the City of New York, Sydney and (solely in the case of the Specified Currency) Melbourne, Toronto, Johannesburg and Zurich, respectively.
London Banking Day” means a day on which commercial banks are open for business, including dealings in U.S. dollars, in London.
Provisions Applicable To Fixed Rate Notes Only:
If the “Fixed Rate” line above is checked, unless otherwise specified above, the Company will pay interest semiannually on February 14 and August 14 of each year (each such date fixed for the payment of interest, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing on August 14, 2022, and ending on the Maturity Date or upon earlier redemption or repayment to the person to whom principal is payable. Interest shall accrue from the Original Issue Date, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for on this Note to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or earlier date of redemption or repayment, as the case may be. Interest on Fixed Rate Notes will be computed by the Company on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment) of this Fixed Rate Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.
Provisions Applicable To Floating Rate Notes Only:
If the “Floating Rate” line above is checked, the Company will pay interest on the Interest Payment Dates shown specified above at the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth under the headings “Determination of CD Rate,” “Determination of CMT Rate,” “Determination of Commercial Paper Rate,” “Determination of Federal Funds Rate,” “Determination of LIBOR,” “Determination of Prime Rate” or “Determination of Treasury Rate,” depending on whether the Interest Rate Basis is the CD Rate, the CMT Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, the Prime Rate, the Treasury Rate or other Interest Rate Basis.




An interest payment shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date, or from and including the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or date of earlier redemption or repayment, as the case may be (an “Interest Period”). Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified above.
If any Interest Payment Date for any Floating Rate Note, other than an Interest Payment Date at maturity, would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the following day that is a Business Day, and interest will continue to accrue to the following Business Day, except that if LIBOR is the applicable Interest Rate Basis, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day. If the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) of any Floating Rate Note would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal (and premium, if any) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment).
Commencing with the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above under “Interest Reset Dates.”
The interest rate borne by this Note will be determined as follows:
(i)    Unless the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” or an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” or in the event either “Other Provisions” or an Addendum hereto applies, in each case, relating to a different interest rate formula, this Note shall be designated as a “Regular Floating Rate Note” and, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any; in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate.
(ii)    If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that (y) the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate and (z) the interest rate in effect for the period commencing on, and including, the Fixed Rate Commencement Date specified above to the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) shall be the Fixed Interest Rate specified above or, if no Fixed Interest Rate is so specified, the interest rate in effect on the day immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.
(iii)    If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at (a) the Fixed Interest Rate specified above minus (b) the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases:




(x)    plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or
(y)    multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above;
provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, the interest rate hereon shall not be less than zero. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset on each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate set forth above.
The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to be added to or subtracted from the Interest Rate Basis for a Floating Rate Note, and the “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specified above by which the Interest Rate Basis for such Floating Rate Note will be multiplied. Both a Spread and/or a Spread Multiplier may be applicable to the Interest Rate Basis for a particular Floating Rate Note, as set forth above.
Each such adjusted Interest Rate Basis shall be applicable on and after the Interest Reset Date to which it relates but not including the next succeeding Interest Reset Date. If any Interest Reset Date is a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that if the rate of interest on this Note shall be determined by reference to LIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. In addition, if the Treasury Rate is the applicable Interest Rate Basis and the Interest Determination Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day. Subject to applicable provisions of law (including usury laws) and except as specified in this Note, on each Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below.
With respect to a Floating Rate Note, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount thereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the Interest Period or from the last date from which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases of CD Rate Notes, Commercial Paper Rate Notes, Federal Funds Rate Notes, LIBOR Notes and Prime Rate Notes or by the actual number of days in the year, in the cases of CMT Rate Notes and Treasury Rate Notes. The interest rate applicable to any day that is an Interest Reset Date will be the interest rate effective on such Interest Reset Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day will be the interest rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate, as specified above).
The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, pertaining to an Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.
For Floating Rate Notes, except with respect to LIBOR, Citibank, N.A. shall be the calculation agent unless another calculation agent is specified above (the “Calculation Agent”). As Calculation Agent, Citibank, N.A. shall have all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it as Trustee under the Indenture, unless a calculation agency agreement is entered into, in which case, such agreement would control. The interest rate applicable to each




interest period will be determined by the Calculation Agent on or prior to the applicable Calculation Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.
All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a Floating Rate Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward).
Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CD Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CD Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CD Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15(519) (as defined below) on such CD Interest Determination Date under the heading “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15 Daily Update (as defined below), or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent on the Notes as the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date, of three leading non-bank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in the City of New York (which may include an agent or its affiliates) selected by the Company for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money market banks with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. If the dealers selected by the Company as provided in the preceding sentence are not quoting as mentioned in such sentence, the CD Rate shall be the CD Rate in effect on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date.
H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world-wide-web site of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication.
Determination of CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CMT Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CMT Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CMT Interest Determination Date”) and shall be, if “CMT Reuters Page FRBCMT” is specified above, the percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor or similar service), on page FRBCMT (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”) (“Reuters Page FRBCMT”). If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FRBCMT, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities




at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date for the period of the Index Maturity specified above, as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would otherwise have been published in H.15(519). In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not published, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates (each a “Reference Dealer”), selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to in the above sentence are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated; provided, however, that if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the highest and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. However, if fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If the CMT Reuters Page FEDCMT is specified above, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, and will be the average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDCMT (or any other page as may replace that specified page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDCMT”), for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FEDCMT, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the week or month, as applicable, preceding the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) opposite the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be




the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not publish the rate referred to above, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or (in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above and will be in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated, or if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If two United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity as specified above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Index Maturity specified above, the quotes for the United States Treasury security with the shorter original remaining term to maturity will be used.
Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Commercial Paper Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Commercial Paper Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such date of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity as indicated above, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published as provided in the preceding sentence, then the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date shall




be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of United States dollar commercial paper in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, placed for industrial issuers whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date.
Money Market Yield” shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:
Money market yield =
D 360
100
360 - (D M)

Determination Date at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, then the Company will request the principal London office of each of four major banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Company, to provide a quotation of the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market for three-month deposits in U.S. dollars in a principal amount of at least $1,000,000 at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date. If at least two such offered quotations are so provided, LIBOR determined on the applicable LIBOR Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are so provided, the Company will request each of three major banks in New York City, as selected by the Company, to provide a quotation of the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum), offered by it for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks having a three-month maturity in a principal amount of at least $1,000,000 at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date. If at least two such rates are so provided, LIBOR determined on the applicable LIBOR Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent will be the arithmetic mean of such rates. If fewer than two such rates are so provided, then LIBOR determined on the applicable LIBOR Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent will be the rate in effect on the applicable LIBOR Interest Determination Date.

If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to the Treasury Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Treasury Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be the rate from the auction held on the applicable Interest Determination Date (the “Auction”) of direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury Bills”) having the Index Maturity, as specified above, as published under the caption “INVESTMENT RATE” on the display on Reuters, Inc. or any successor or similar service on page USAUCTION 10 or any other page as may replace page USAUCTION 10 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 10”) or page USAUCTION 11 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 11”), or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date (as defined below), the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate for the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury Bills announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or, if the rate is not announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the Auction is not held, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of Treasury Bills having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.” In the event that the results of the auction of Treasury Bills having the applicable Index Maturity specified above are not published or reported, as provided above, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate Determination Date, then the Treasury Rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three primary United States government securities dealers, which may include the agent or its affiliates, selected by the Company, for the issue of Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Treasury Rate will be the Treasury Rate in effect on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date.
The “Treasury Rate Determination Date” for any Interest Reset Date will be the day of the week in which such Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury Bills would normally be auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Date occurring in the next succeeding week.

If this Note bears interest at a Fixed Rate, as specified above, unless otherwise specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the 30th day of January and the 30th day of July, whether or not a Business Day, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date. If this Note bears interest at a Floating Rate, as specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the fifteenth calendar day next preceding such Interest Payment Date, whether or not such date shall be a Business Day.
Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above and such payment is to be made in such Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the Holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date or such earlier redemption or repayment date, as the case may be, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note is presented and surrendered at the Place of Payment specified above in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, other than the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date, will be made at the Place of Payment specified above.
Whenever in this Note or in the Indenture there is a reference, in any context, to the payment of the principal of, or interest, if any, on, or in respect of, the Notes, such payment shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect of such payment pursuant to the provisions hereof or thereof and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof or thereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.
The Company is obligated to make payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in United States dollars or, if a Specified Currency is indicated above, in such Specified Currency (or, if such Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts of the country issuing such currency or, in the case of the Euro, in the member states of the European Union that have adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty Establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union, such other currency which is then such legal tender in such country or in the adopting member states of the European Union, as the case may be). If a




Specified Currency is specified above, except as otherwise provided below, any such amounts so payable by the Company will be converted by a New York clearing house bank designated by the Company (the “Exchange Rate Agent”) into United States dollars for payment to the Holder of this Note.
If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive any amount payable hereunder in such Specified Currency. If the Holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the Holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in the City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Company for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to all Holders of Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.
If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at the Place of Payment on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by facsimile transmission. The Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be.
If a Specified Currency is specified above and the Holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, but such Specified Currency is not available for such payment due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate on or before the date on which such payment is due. The “Market Exchange Rate” for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfers of the Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made in United States dollars under such circumstances shall not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture).
All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of this Note.




In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal amount (or, if the Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, such lesser portion of the principal amount as may be applicable) of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable, and, with respect to certain Events of Default, shall automatically become due and payable, in each case in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, in the event of an acceleration of the Maturity Date hereof, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note upon such acceleration will be determined by this Note but will be an amount less than the amount payable at the Maturity Date of this Note.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Guarantor with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series, on behalf of the Holders of all Debt Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company and the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered in the Debt Security Register of this series upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Place of Payment specified above, duly endorsed by or accompanied by, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Note or Notes of this series of Authorized Denomination and for the same aggregate principal amount, with the Guarantee endorsed thereon, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of the Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered in the Debt Security Register as the owner of this Note for all purposes (other than for the determination of any Additional Amounts payable) and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Prior to January 14, 2027 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, 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 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 20 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.
On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
If any redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next 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 Business Day.
Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any 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). 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 straight-line 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 or any successor designation or publication 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 Par Call Date, 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 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.
The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depository’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to the Holder hereof in accordance with Section 15.03 of the Indenture, except that redemption notices may be provided more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the Notes and/or the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, notice of any redemption to the Holder hereof may, in the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a corporate transaction. In such event, the related notice of redemption will describe each such condition and, if applicable, will state that, in the Company’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed.
In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the Holder upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depository, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depository.
Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the principal amount of this Note called for redemption.
This Note will not be subject to, or have the benefit of, any sinking fund.
Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, if an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem this Note as described above, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth herein. 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 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).
Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, within 30 days following any HDI Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any HDI Change of Control (as defined below), but after public announcement by HDI (as defined below) of the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, an HDI Change of Control, a notice will be delivered to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice. Such date will be no earlier




than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the HDI Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.
If any Change of Control Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next 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 Business Day.
On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all such Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee such Notes properly accepted together with a Company Officers’ Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased.
The Company will not be required to comply with the obligations relating to repurchasing the Notes if a third-party instead satisfies them.
The Company must 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 applicable to the repurchase of the Notes. 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 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 Notes by virtue of any such compliance.
If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes properly tender and do not validly withdraw such amount of the Notes in a Change of Control Offer, and the Company, or any third-party making an offer to purchase the Notes in connection with an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of the Company, purchase such amount of the Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, then the Company will have the right, upon notice described above, given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all (but not less than all) of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date). If the redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next 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 Business Day.
For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the following terms will be applicable:
Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Notes cease to be rated an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an HDI Change of Control and (2) the first public announcement by Harley-Davidson, Inc. (“HDI”) of the intention of HDI to effect an HDI Change of Control




(which 60-day period will be extended for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible downgrade of the rating of the notes of such series); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular HDI Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of HDI Change of Control Triggering Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Company 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 HDI Change of Control (whether or not the applicable HDI Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). The Trustee has no obligation to monitor the ratings of the Notes for purposes of determining the occurrence of a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.
Fitch” means Fitch Ratings, Inc. and its successors.
HDI Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of HDI or other Voting Stock into which the Voting Stock of HDI is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or (2) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation or as a pledge for security purposes only), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of HDI and the assets of the subsidiaries of HDI, taken as a whole, to one or more “persons” (as that term is defined in the Indenture), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries and other than any such transaction or series of related transactions where holders of Voting Stock of HDI outstanding immediately prior thereto hold voting stock of the transferee person representing a majority of the voting power of the transferee person’s voting stock immediately after giving effect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to be an HDI Change of Control if (1) HDI becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(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 Voting Stock of HDI immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term 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.
HDI Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both an HDI Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no HDI Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular HDI Change of Control unless and until such HDI Change of Control has actually been consummated.

Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.




Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, and (2) if any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (or in each case any replacement thereof appointed pursuant to this definition) ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a replacement agency for Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch, as the case may be; provided that the Company shall give notice of any such replacement to the Trustee.
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.

Limitation on Liens. The Company and the Guarantor will not, nor will they permit any Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor to, issue or assume any Indebtedness secured by a Lien upon any Property (now owned or hereinafter acquired) of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Indebtedness that the Notes (together with, if the Company or the Guarantor shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, apply if the aggregate amount of Indebtedness issued or assumed by the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries and so secured by Liens, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be subject to such restrictions, but not including Indebtedness permitted to be secured under clauses (i) through (xv) of the immediately following paragraph, does not at the time such secured Indebtedness is incurred exceed 15% of the applicable Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.
The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Indebtedness secured by:
(i) Liens existing on the date of the original issuance of the Notes;
(ii) Liens on any Property of any company existing at the time such company becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, which Liens are not created in contemplation of such company becoming a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor;
(iii) Liens on any Property existing at the time such Property is acquired by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, or Liens to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such Property upon the acquisition of such Property by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor or to secure any Indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after, the later of the date of acquisition of such Property and the date such Property is placed in service, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof, or Liens to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing the cost to the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor of improvements to such acquired Property or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the cost of construction of the Property subject to such Liens;

(vi) Liens with respect to the payment of taxes, assessments or governmental charges in all cases which are not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;

(viii) Liens incurred or deposits made in the ordinary course of business in connection with worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance or other types of social security benefits or to secure the performance of bids, tenders, sales, contracts (other than for the repayment of borrowed money), surety, appeal and performance bonds;
(ix) Liens arising with respect to zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, covenants, rights-of-way, utility easements, building restrictions and other similar charges or encumbrances on the use of real property which do not interfere with the ordinary conduct of the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
(x) Liens of attachment or judgment with respect to judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
(xi) Liens arising from leases, subleases or licenses granted to others which do not interfere in any material respect with the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
(xii) any interest or title of the lessor in the Property subject to any operating lease (as determined in accordance with GAAP as it applied immediately prior to giving effect to FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (February 2016)) entered into by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;
(xiii) Liens, if any, in connection with any sale/leaseback transaction;
(xiv) Liens on assets pledged in respect of Indebtedness that has been defeased and/or discharged in accordance with the provisions thereof through the deposit of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities (it being understood that cash collateral shall be deemed to include cash deposited with a trustee with respect to third party indebtedness); and
(xv) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) - (xiv); provided, however, that such new Lien is limited to the Property (or type of Property) which was subject to the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement, and provided, further, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased.
The Company may “reopen” a previously issued tranche of Notes and issue additional Notes of such tranche or establish additional terms of such tranche or issue notes with the same




terms as previously issued Notes (except for the Original Issue Date, Issue Price and, if applicable, the initial Interest Payment Date).
The Company may at any time purchase this Note at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may be held or resold or, at the discretion of the Company, may be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.
For the avoidance of doubt, Article Thirteen of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
By acceptance of this Note, the Holder hereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Indenture. Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture. Facsimile signatures for the purposes of the Indenture are intended to include electronic signatures (including DocuSign). This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture.
None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any benchmark or floating rate note index, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any benchmark transition event or related benchmark replacement date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index or basis, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what benchmark replacement conforming changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, paying agent and Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith.
None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth herein as a result of the unavailability of any benchmark or index or other applicable benchmark replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms hereof and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Company’s actions or omissions or for those of the Company’s designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Company or its designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, paying agent or Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the Company’s performance or that of its designee.

If the “Floating Rate” line above is checked, the Company will pay interest on the Interest Payment Dates shown specified above at the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth under the headings “Determination of CD Rate,” “Determination of CMT Rate,” “Determination of Commercial Paper Rate,” “Determination of Federal Funds Rate,” “Determination of LIBOR,” “Determination of Prime Rate” or “Determination of Treasury Rate,” depending on whether the Interest Rate Basis is the CD Rate, the CMT Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, the Prime Rate, the Treasury Rate or other Interest Rate Basis.
An interest payment shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date, or from and including the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or date of earlier redemption or repayment, as the case may be (an “Interest Period”). Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified above.
If any Interest Payment Date for any Floating Rate Note, other than an Interest Payment Date at maturity, would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the following day that is a Business Day, and interest will continue to accrue to the following Business Day, except that if LIBOR is the applicable Interest Rate Basis, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date will be the immediately




preceding day that is a Business Day. If the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) of any Floating Rate Note would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal (and premium, if any) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment).
Commencing with the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above under “Interest Reset Dates.”
The interest rate borne by this Note will be determined as follows:
(i)    Unless the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” or an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” or in the event either “Other Provisions” or an Addendum hereto applies, in each case, relating to a different interest rate formula, this Note shall be designated as a “Regular Floating Rate Note” and, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any; in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate.
(ii)    If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that (y) the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate and (z) the interest rate in effect for the period commencing on, and including, the Fixed Rate Commencement Date specified above to the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) shall be the Fixed Interest Rate specified above or, if no Fixed Interest Rate is so specified, the interest rate in effect on the day immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.
(iii)    If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at (a) the Fixed Interest Rate specified above minus (b) the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases:
(x)    plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or
(y)    multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above;
provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, the interest rate hereon shall not be less than zero. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset on each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate set forth above.




The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to be added to or subtracted from the Interest Rate Basis for a Floating Rate Note, and the “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specified above by which the Interest Rate Basis for such Floating Rate Note will be multiplied. Both a Spread and/or a Spread Multiplier may be applicable to the Interest Rate Basis for a particular Floating Rate Note, as set forth above.
Each such adjusted Interest Rate Basis shall be applicable on and after the Interest Reset Date to which it relates but not including the next succeeding Interest Reset Date. If any Interest Reset Date is a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that if the rate of interest on this Note shall be determined by reference to LIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. In addition, if the Treasury Rate is the applicable Interest Rate Basis and the Interest Determination Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day. Subject to applicable provisions of law (including usury laws) and except as specified in this Note, on each Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below.
With respect to a Floating Rate Note, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount thereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the Interest Period or from the last date from which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases of CD Rate Notes, Commercial Paper Rate Notes, Federal Funds Rate Notes, LIBOR Notes and Prime Rate Notes or by the actual number of days in the year, in the cases of CMT Rate Notes and Treasury Rate Notes. The interest rate applicable to any day that is an Interest Reset Date will be the interest rate effective on such Interest Reset Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day will be the interest rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate, as specified above).
The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, pertaining to an Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.
For Floating Rate Notes, except with respect to LIBOR, Citibank, N.A. shall be the calculation agent unless another calculation agent is specified above (the “Calculation Agent”). As Calculation Agent, Citibank, N.A. shall have all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it as Trustee under the Indenture, unless a calculation agency agreement is entered into, in which case, such agreement would control. The interest rate applicable to each interest period will be determined by the Calculation Agent on or prior to the applicable Calculation Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.
All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a Floating Rate Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward).




Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CD Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CD Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CD Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15(519) (as defined below) on such CD Interest Determination Date under the heading “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15 Daily Update (as defined below), or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent on the Notes as the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date, of three leading non-bank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in the City of New York (which may include an agent or its affiliates) selected by the Company for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money market banks with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. If the dealers selected by the Company as provided in the preceding sentence are not quoting as mentioned in such sentence, the CD Rate shall be the CD Rate in effect on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date.
H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world-wide-web site of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication.
Determination of CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CMT Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CMT Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CMT Interest Determination Date”) and shall be, if “CMT Reuters Page FRBCMT” is specified above, the percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor or similar service), on page FRBCMT (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”) (“Reuters Page FRBCMT”). If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FRBCMT, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date for the period of the Index Maturity specified above, as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would otherwise have been published in H.15(519). In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not published, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30




p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates (each a “Reference Dealer”), selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to in the above sentence are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated; provided, however, that if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the highest and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. However, if fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If the CMT Reuters Page FEDCMT is specified above, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, and will be the average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDCMT (or any other page as may replace that specified page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDCMT”), for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FEDCMT, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the week or month, as applicable, preceding the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) opposite the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not publish the rate referred to above, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one




of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or (in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above and will be in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated, or if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If two United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity as specified above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Index Maturity specified above, the quotes for the United States Treasury security with the shorter original remaining term to maturity will be used.
Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Commercial Paper Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Commercial Paper Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such date of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity as indicated above, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published as provided in the preceding sentence, then the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of United States dollar commercial paper in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, placed for industrial issuers whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date.

(or any successor service) on page FEDFUND01 (or any other page as may replace the applicable page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDFUND01”) or, if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page FEDFUND01, or is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the rate on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date for United States dollar Federal Funds will be the rate on such Federal Funds Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight United States dollar Federal Funds arranged by three leading brokers of United States dollar Federal Funds transactions in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Company before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if the brokers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Federal Funds Rate will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date.
Determination of LIBOR. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, LIBOR, unless otherwise specified above, “LIBOR” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second London Banking Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “LIBOR Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate (express as a percentage per annum) for deposits in U.S. dollars having a three-month maturity that appears on Reuters LIBOR01 at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the applicable LIBOR Interest Determination Date, or if Reuters LIBOR01 is not available on such date, the Calculation Agent will obtain such rate from Bloomberg’s page “BBAM.” If such rate does not appear on Reuters LIBOR01 or Bloomberg’s page “BBAM” on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, then the Company will request the principal London office of each of four major banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Company, to provide a quotation of the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) offered by it to prime banks in the London interbank market for three-month deposits in U.S. dollars in a principal amount of at least $1,000,000 at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date. If at least two such offered quotations are so provided, LIBOR determined on the applicable LIBOR Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are so provided, the Company will request each of three major banks in New York City, as selected by the Company, to provide a quotation of the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum), offered by it for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks having a three-




month maturity in a principal amount of at least $1,000,000 at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date. If at least two such rates are so provided, LIBOR determined on the applicable LIBOR Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent will be the arithmetic mean of such rates.

Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above and such payment is to be made in such Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the Holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date or such earlier redemption or repayment date, as the case may be, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note is presented and surrendered at the Place of Payment specified above in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, other than the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date, will be made at the Place of Payment specified above.
Whenever in this Note or in the Indenture there is a reference, in any context, to the payment of the principal of, or interest, if any, on, or in respect of, the Notes, such payment shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect of such payment pursuant to the provisions hereof or thereof and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof or thereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.
The Company is obligated to make payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in United States dollars or, if a Specified Currency is indicated above, in such Specified Currency (or, if such Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts of the country issuing such currency or, in the case of the Euro, in the member states of the European Union that have adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty Establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union, such other currency which is then such legal tender in such country or in the adopting member states of the European Union, as the case may be). If a Specified Currency is specified above, except as otherwise provided below, any such amounts so payable by the Company will be converted by a New York clearing house bank designated by the Company (the “Exchange Rate Agent”) into United States dollars for payment to the Holder of this Note.
If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive any amount payable hereunder in such Specified Currency. If the Holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the Holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in the City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date




from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Company for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to all Holders of Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.
If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at the Place of Payment on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by facsimile transmission. The Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be.
If a Specified Currency is specified above and the Holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, but such Specified Currency is not available for such payment due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate on or before the date on which such payment is due. The “Market Exchange Rate” for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfers of the Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made in United States dollars under such circumstances shall not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture).
All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of this Note.
In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal amount (or, if the Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, such lesser portion of the principal amount as may be applicable) of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable, and, with respect to certain Events of Default, shall automatically become due and payable, in each case in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, in the event of an acceleration of the Maturity Date hereof, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note upon such acceleration will be determined by this Note but will be an amount less than the amount payable at the Maturity Date of this Note.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification




under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Guarantor with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series, on behalf of the Holders of all Debt Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company and the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.
This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof or other Authorized Denomination specified above.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered in the Debt Security Register of this series upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Place of Payment specified above, duly endorsed by or accompanied by, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Note or Notes of this series of Authorized Denomination and for the same aggregate principal amount, with the Guarantee endorsed thereon, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of the Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
The Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered in the Debt Security Register as the owner of this Note for all purposes (other than for the determination of any Additional Amounts payable) and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
Prior to January 14, 2027 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, 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 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 20 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.
On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
If any redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next 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 Business Day.




Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any 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). 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 straight-line 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 or any successor designation or publication 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 Par Call Date, 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 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.
The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depository’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to the Holder hereof in accordance with Section 15.03 of the Indenture, except that redemption notices may be provided more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the Notes and/or the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, notice of




any redemption to the Holder hereof may, in the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a corporate transaction. In such event, the related notice of redemption will describe each such condition and, if applicable, will state that, in the Company’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed.
In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the Holder upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depository, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depository.
Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the principal amount of this Note called for redemption.
This Note will not be subject to, or have the benefit of, any sinking fund.
Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, if an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem this Note as described above, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth herein. 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 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).
Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, within 30 days following any HDI Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any HDI Change of Control (as defined below), but after public announcement by HDI (as defined below) of the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, an HDI Change of Control, a notice will be delivered to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice. Such date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the HDI Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.
If any Change of Control Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next 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 Business Day.
On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn




pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all such Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee such Notes properly accepted together with a Company Officers’ Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased.
The Company will not be required to comply with the obligations relating to repurchasing the Notes if a third-party instead satisfies them.
The Company must 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 applicable to the repurchase of the Notes. 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 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 Notes by virtue of any such compliance.
If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes properly tender and do not validly withdraw such amount of the Notes in a Change of Control Offer, and the Company, or any third-party making an offer to purchase the Notes in connection with an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of the Company, purchase such amount of the Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, then the Company will have the right, upon notice described above, given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all (but not less than all) of the Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date). If the redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next 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 Business Day.
For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the following terms will be applicable:
Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Notes cease to be rated an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an HDI Change of Control and (2) the first public announcement by Harley-Davidson, Inc. (“HDI”) of the intention of HDI to effect an HDI Change of Control (which 60-day period will be extended for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible downgrade of the rating of the notes of such series); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular HDI Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of HDI Change of Control Triggering Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Company 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 HDI Change of Control (whether or not the applicable HDI Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). The Trustee has no obligation to monitor the ratings of the Notes for purposes of determining the occurrence of a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.




Fitch” means Fitch Ratings, Inc. and its successors.
HDI Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of HDI or other Voting Stock into which the Voting Stock of HDI is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or (2) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation or as a pledge for security purposes only), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of HDI and the assets of the subsidiaries of HDI, taken as a whole, to one or more “persons” (as that term is defined in the Indenture), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries and other than any such transaction or series of related transactions where holders of Voting Stock of HDI outstanding immediately prior thereto hold voting stock of the transferee person representing a majority of the voting power of the transferee person’s voting stock immediately after giving effect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to be an HDI Change of Control if (1) HDI becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(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 Voting Stock of HDI immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term 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.
HDI Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both an HDI Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no HDI Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular HDI Change of Control unless and until such HDI Change of Control has actually been consummated.
Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Moody’s), BBB− by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) and BBB− by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Fitch), and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company.
Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.
Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, and (2) if any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (or in each case any replacement thereof appointed pursuant to this definition) ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a replacement agency for Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch, as the case may be; provided that the Company shall give notice of any such replacement to the Trustee.
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.




In lieu of Section 5.05 of the Indenture, the following covenant shall apply:
Limitation on Liens. The Company and the Guarantor will not, nor will they permit any Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor to, issue or assume any Indebtedness secured by a Lien upon any Property (now owned or hereinafter acquired) of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Indebtedness that the Notes (together with, if the Company or the Guarantor shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, apply if the aggregate amount of Indebtedness issued or assumed by the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries and so secured by Liens, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be subject to such restrictions, but not including Indebtedness permitted to be secured under clauses (i) through (xv) of the immediately following paragraph, does not at the time such secured Indebtedness is incurred exceed 15% of the applicable Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.
The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Indebtedness secured by:
(i) Liens existing on the date of the original issuance of the Notes;
(ii) Liens on any Property of any company existing at the time such company becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, which Liens are not created in contemplation of such company becoming a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor;

(vi) Liens with respect to the payment of taxes, assessments or governmental charges in all cases which are not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;

or to secure the performance of bids, tenders, sales, contracts (other than for the repayment of borrowed money), surety, appeal and performance bonds;
(ix) Liens arising with respect to zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, covenants, rights-of-way, utility easements, building restrictions and other similar charges or encumbrances on the use of real property which do not interfere with the ordinary conduct of the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
(x) Liens of attachment or judgment with respect to judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
(xi) Liens arising from leases, subleases or licenses granted to others which do not interfere in any material respect with the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
(xii) any interest or title of the lessor in the Property subject to any operating lease (as determined in accordance with GAAP as it applied immediately prior to giving effect to FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (February 2016)) entered into by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;
(xiii) Liens, if any, in connection with any sale/leaseback transaction;
(xiv) Liens on assets pledged in respect of Indebtedness that has been defeased and/or discharged in accordance with the provisions thereof through the deposit of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities (it being understood that cash collateral shall be deemed to include cash deposited with a trustee with respect to third party indebtedness); and
(xv) any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) - (xiv); provided, however, that such new Lien is limited to the Property (or type of Property) which was subject to the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement, and provided, further, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased.
The Company may “reopen” a previously issued tranche of Notes and issue additional Notes of such tranche or establish additional terms of such tranche or issue notes with the same terms as previously issued Notes (except for the Original Issue Date, Issue Price and, if applicable, the initial Interest Payment Date).
The Company may at any time purchase this Note at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may be held or resold or, at the discretion of the Company, may be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.
For the avoidance of doubt, Article Thirteen of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.




By acceptance of this Note, the Holder hereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Indenture. Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture. Facsimile signatures for the purposes of the Indenture are intended to include electronic signatures (including DocuSign). This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture.
None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any benchmark or floating rate note index, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any benchmark transition event or related benchmark replacement date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index or basis, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what benchmark replacement conforming changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, paying agent and Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith.
None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth herein as a result of the unavailability of any benchmark or index or other applicable benchmark replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms hereof and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Company’s actions or omissions or for those of the Company’s designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Company or its designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, paying agent or Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the Company’s performance or that of its designee.

The date of this pricing supplement is February 9, 2022.
[Information omitted]
DESCRIPTION OF NOTES
In this section, “we,” “us,” and “our” refer only to Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc. and not any of its subsidiaries.
General
We are offering $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 3.050% Medium-Term Notes due 2027 (the “notes”). The notes will be our unsecured senior obligations, ranking equal in right of payment to all of our unsecured and unsubordinated debt from time to time outstanding. The notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of our assets securing such debt. As of September 30, 2021 we had approximately $4.2 billion of unsecured and unsubordinated debt outstanding and, except for secured notes that we issued through VIEs, no secured debt.
Principal and Maturity
The notes will be limited initially in aggregate principal amount to $500,000,000. We may, without the consent of the holders of the notes, create and issue additional notes ranking equally with the notes offered in this pricing supplement and otherwise similar in all respects (except the issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the initial interest payment date and the date from which interest shall begin to accrue); provided, however, that any additional notes that form a single series of notes with the notes offered hereby must be fungible with such previously issued and outstanding notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We may also issue additional notes that may have different terms than the notes offered in this pricing supplement.
We will issue the notes in fully registered form without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The notes will mature on February 14, 2027.
Interest
Interest on the notes will accrue at the rate of 3.050% per annum. Interest on the notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on February 14 and August 14 of each year, beginning on August 14, 2022. We will make each interest payment to the holders of record of the notes on the January 30 and July 30 immediately preceding the related interest payment date.
Interest on the notes will accrue from February 14, 2022. Interest will be computed by us on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In any case where an interest payment date is not a business day, the interest payment date will be postponed to the next succeeding business day and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after such interest payment date.
Payments on the Notes
All principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the notes will be payable at our office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York maintained for this purpose. Initially, payments will be made at the corporate trust office of the trustee. Payments of principal and interest on the notes will be made in funds which are available the same day. The notes will trade in the same day funds
PS-64


settlement system of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) until maturity, and secondary market trading activity for the notes will therefore settle in same day funds.
Transfer and Exchange
You may transfer or exchange the notes in accordance with the indenture. The transfer or exchange may be made at our office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York maintained for this purpose, which will initially be the corporate trust office of the trustee. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of notes, except in certain circumstances for any tax
or other governmental charge that may be imposed.
The registered holder of a note will be treated as the owner of that note for all purposes.
Optional Redemption
Prior to January 14, 2027 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), we may redeem the notes at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, 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 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 20 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.
On or after the Par Call Date, we may redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
If any redemption date falls on a day that is not a business day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next 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 business day.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by us in accordance with the following two paragraphs.
The Treasury Rate shall be determined by us 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). In determining the Treasury Rate, we shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant
PS-65


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 straight-line 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 or any successor designation or publication is no longer published, we 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 Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, we 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 preceding sentence, we 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.
Our actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The trustee shall have no responsibility in calculating the redemption price.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be redeemed, except that redemption notices may be provided more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the notes and/or the indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, notice of any redemption to the holders of the notes may, in our discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a corporate transaction. In such event, the related notice of redemption will describe each such condition and, if applicable, will state that, in our discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed.
PS-66


In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or pursuant to applicable depositary procedures. No notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the note will state the portion of the principal amount of the note to be redeemed. A new note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the note will be issued in the name of the holder of the note upon surrender for cancellation of the original note. For so long as the notes are held by DTC, the Euroclear System or Clearstream Banking, S.A., Luxembourg (or another depositary), the redemption of the notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.
Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the notes or portions thereof called for redemption.
Except as set forth above, the notes will not be redeemable by us prior to maturity and will not be subject to, or have the benefit of, a sinking fund.
In addition to the foregoing, we may at any time and from time to time purchase notes in the open market or otherwise, subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws.
Offer to Purchase Upon HDI Change of Control Triggering Event
If an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless we have previously or concurrently delivered a redemption notice with respect to all of the outstanding notes as described above under “—Optional Redemption,” we will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of the notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such holder’s notes on the terms set forth in the notes. In the Change of Control Offer, we will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).
Within 30 days following any HDI Change of Control Triggering Event or, at our option, prior to any HDI Change of Control, but after public announcement by HDI of the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, an HDI Change of Control, a notice will be delivered to holders of the notes describing the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the notes on the date specified in the notice. Such date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the HDI Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.
If any Change of Control Payment Date falls on a day that is not a business day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next 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 business day.
On the Change of Control Payment Date, we will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all notes or portions of notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer,
PS-67


(ii)deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all notes or portions of notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the notes properly accepted, together with an officer’s certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions of notes being repurchased.
We will not be required to comply with the obligations relating to repurchasing the notes if a third-party instead satisfies them.
We must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations applicable to the repurchase of the notes. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the change of control offer provisions of the notes, we will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the change of control offer provisions of the notes by virtue of any such compliance.
If holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes properly tender and do not validly withdraw such notes in a Change of Control Offer, and we, or any third-party making an offer to purchase the notes in connection with an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of us, purchase all of the notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such holders, then we will have the right, upon notice given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all (but not less than all) of the notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record as of the close of business on the relevant record date to receive interest on the applicable interest payment date). If the redemption date falls on a day that is not a business day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next 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 business day. If a Change of Control Offer is made, there can be no assurance that we or the Guarantor will have available funds sufficient to make the Change of Control Payment for all of the notes that may be tendered for repurchase.
For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the notes, the following terms will be applicable:
“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the notes cease to be rated an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an HDI Change of Control and (2) the first public announcement by HDI of the intention of HDI to effect an HDI Change of Control (which 60-day period will be extended for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible downgrade of the rating of the notes); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular HDI Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of HDI Change of Control Triggering Event) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to
which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or inform us in writing at our 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 HDI Change of Control (whether or not the applicable HDI Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade
PS-68


Rating Event). The trustee has no obligation to monitor the ratings of the notes for purposes of determining the occurrence of a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.
“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings Inc. and its successors.
“HDI Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than Harley-Davidson or one of its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson or other Voting Stock into which the Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or (2) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation or as a pledge for security purposes only), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of Harley-Davidson and the assets of the subsidiaries of Harley-Davidson, taken as a whole, to one or more “persons” (as that term is defined in the indenture), other than Harley-Davidson or one of its subsidiaries and other than any such transaction or series of related transactions where holders of Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson outstanding immediately prior thereto hold voting stock of the transferee person representing a majority of the voting power of the transferee person’s voting stock immediately after giving effect thereto.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to be an HDI Change of Control if
(1)Harley-Davidson becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(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 Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term 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.
“HDI Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both an HDI Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no HDI Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular HDI Change of Control unless and until such HDI Change of Control has actually been consummated.
“Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Moody’s), BBB− by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) and BBB− by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Fitch), and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by us.
“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.
“Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch and (2) if any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (or in each case any replacement thereof appointed pursuant to this definition) ceases to rate the notes or fails to make a rating of the notes publicly available for reasons outside of our control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by us as a replacement agency for Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch, as the case may be; provided that we shall give notice of any such replacement to the trustee.
PS-69


“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.
The definition of HDI Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, in one or a series of related transactions, of “all or substantially all” of the assets of Harley-Davidson and the assets of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of such phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of the notes to require us to repurchase that holder’s notes as a result of the sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of Harley-Davidson and the assets of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more persons may
PS-70


be uncertain. Further, the terms of the notes may permit Harley-Davidson and us to engage in certain significant corporate events that would not constitute an “HDI Change of Control” that would require us to make an offer to repurchase the notes. Although a change in the composition of the Board of Directors of Harley-Davidson may be a consequence of events constituting an “HDI Change of Control” under the terms of the notes, changes in the composition of the Board of Directors of Harley-Davidson independent of any other triggering event will not alone constitute an “HDI Change of Control” under the terms of
the notes.
Our obligation to purchase the notes following an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event is subject to the provisions described under the “Description of Notes—Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance” in the accompanying offering memorandum.
Covenants
The indenture governing the notes contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of the Guarantor to incur certain liens and to merge or consolidate. We have summarized certain of the terms and conditions of the notes below. This summary supplements the description of the general terms and conditions of the notes under the caption “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants” in the accompanying offering memorandum and, to the extent this summary is inconsistent with such description, replaces and supersedes such description. This summary of certain provisions applicable to the notes does not purport to be complete and is subject to all of the provisions of the indenture and the notes. You should read the indenture and the notes, copies of which are available from us upon request.
Limitation on Liens
As long as any of the notes are outstanding, neither we nor the Guarantor will, nor will we or it permit any of our or its respective Subsidiaries to, issue or assume any Indebtedness secured by a Lien upon any of our or its respective Property or the Property of our or its respective Subsidiaries without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Indebtedness that the notes (together with, if we or it, as applicable, shall so determine, any other of our or its Indebtedness or the Indebtedness of our or its respective Subsidiaries ranking equally with the notes then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, apply if the aggregate amount of Indebtedness issued or assumed by us or the Guarantor and our or its respective Subsidiaries and so secured by Liens, together with all other Indebtedness of us or the Guarantor and our or its respective Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be subject to such restrictions, but not including Indebtedness permitted to be secured under clauses (1) through (15) of the immediately following



paragraph, does not at the time such secured Indebtedness is incurred exceed 15% of the applicable Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.
The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Indebtedness secured by:
(1)Liens existing on the date of the original issuance of the notes;
(2)Liens on any Property of any company existing at the time such company becomes a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor, which Liens are not created in contemplation of such company becoming a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;
(3)Liens on any Property existing at the time such Property is acquired by us or the Guarantor or by a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor, or Liens to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such Property upon the acquisition of such Property by us or the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor or to secure any Indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after, the later of the date of acquisition of such Property and the date such Property is placed in service, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof, or Liens to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing the cost to us or the Guarantor or to a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor of improvements to such acquired Property or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the cost of construction of the Property subject to such Liens;
(4)Liens securing any Indebtedness of us or a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor owing to us or the Guarantor or to another Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;
(5)Liens created in connection with a securitization or other asset-based financing;
(6)Liens with respect to the payment of taxes, assessments or governmental charges in all cases which are not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;
(7)statutory Liens of landlords and Liens of suppliers, mechanics, carriers, materialmen, warehousemen or workmen and other similar Liens imposed by law created in the ordinary course of business for amounts not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;
(8)Liens incurred or deposits made in the ordinary course of business in connection with worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance or other types of social security benefits or to secure the performance of bids, tenders, sales, contracts (other than for the repayment of borrowed money), surety, appeal and performance bonds;
(9)Liens arising with respect to zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, covenants, rights- of-way, utility easements, building restrictions and other similar charges or encumbrances on the use of real property which do not interfere with the ordinary conduct of the business of us or the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;
(10)Liens of attachment or judgment with respect to judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process against us, the Guarantor or any of our or its respective Subsidiaries;
(11)Liens arising from leases, subleases or licenses granted to others which do not interfere in any material respect with the business of us or the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;



(12)any interest or title of the lessor in the Property subject to any operating lease (as determined in accordance with GAAP as it applied immediately prior to giving effect to FASB Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (February 2016)) entered into by us, the Guarantor or any of our or its respective Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;
(13)Liens, if any, in connection with any sale/leaseback transaction;
(14)Liens on assets pledged in respect of Indebtedness that has been defeased and/or discharged in accordance with the provisions thereof through the deposit of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities (it being understood that cash collateral shall be deemed to include cash deposited with a trustee with respect to third party indebtedness); and
(15)any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (1)—(14); provided, however, that such new Lien is limited to the Property (or type of Property) which was subject to the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement, and provided, further, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased.

Guarantee
The Guarantor will fully, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee our obligations under the indenture and the notes on an unsecured and unsubordinated basis. The obligations of the Guarantor under the Guarantee will be limited as necessary to prevent the Guarantee from constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law.
Credit Support
We are party to an existing support agreement with Harley-Davidson under which Harley-Davidson agrees to provide financial support to us, if required, to maintain our fixed-charge coverage ratio at no less than 1.25 and a minimum net worth of $40.0 million. The support agreement does not constitute a guarantee by Harley-Davidson of our payment on the notes or any of our other obligations or liabilities. See “Description of Notes—Credit Support” in the accompanying offering memorandum.
Book Entry Procedures
All interests in the notes will be subject to the operations and procedures of DTC, the Euroclear System and Clearstream Banking, S.A., Luxembourg. We provide summaries of these operations and procedures in the accompanying offering memorandum solely for the convenience of investors. The operations and procedures of each settlement system are controlled by that settlement system and may be changed at any time. We and the Agents are not responsible for those operations or procedures.
