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.

Section 4.2 Notice of Redemption to Holders.

(a) The Base Indenture is hereby amended, with respect to the Notes only, by replacing the text of the first paragraph of Section 1103 thereof with the following text:

“In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Securities 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 Securities of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Security will state the portion of the principal amount of the Security to be redeemed. A new Security in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Security upon surrender for cancellation of the original Security. For so long as the Securities are held by DTC (or another Depositary), the redemption of the Securities shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.”

(b) The Base Indenture is hereby amended, with respect to the Notes only, by replacing the text of the first paragraph of Section 1104 thereof with the following text:

“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 Securities to be redeemed.

Notice of any redemption may, at the Company’s discretion, be given subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of a corporate transaction that is pending (such as an equity or equity-linked offering, an incurrence of indebtedness or an acquisition or other strategic transaction involving a change of control in the Company or another entity). If any redemption is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, the applicable notice of redemption shall describe each such condition, and may be rescinded in the event that any or all of the conditions to the redemption shall not have been satisfied or otherwise waived on or prior to the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Redemption Date.

The Company shall notify Holders of any such rescission as soon as practicable after it determines that the conditions precedent to the redemption will not be able to be satisfied or the Company is not able or willing to waive such conditions precedent, in each case subject to policies and procedures of the Depositary. The Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business on the Business Day prior to the relevant Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder of the Securities in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. Once a notice of redemption is mailed or sent, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent provided in the notice of redemption, the Securities called for redemption will become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable Optional Redemption Price.”

This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

Dated:

[FORM OF REVERSE OF 5.250% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2031]

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under a Senior Debt Indenture, dated as of August 13, 2018 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 13, 2024 (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $750,000,000. The Company may from time to time or at any time, without notice to, or the consent of, any Holder of Securities of this series, create and issue additional Securities having the same terms as Securities of this series (except for public offering price, issue date and, if applicable, the initial interest accrual date and first Interest Payment Date), which additional Securities may increase the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series and, together with the Securities of this series, will constitute a single series under the Indenture and vote together as one class on all matters with respect to the Securities of this series; provided, however, that any additional Securities that are not fungible with existing Securities of this series for U.S. federal income tax purposes will have a separate CUSIP, ISIN and other identifying number than the existing Securities of this series.

As provided in Section 4.1 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Securities of this series, at the Company’s 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 on the Securities to be redeemed discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Securities matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points, less (b) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities to be redeemed to the Redemption Date.

In addition, as provided in Section 4.1 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, on or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Securities, 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 Securities being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities to the Redemption Date.

This Security will not be subject to any sinking fund.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

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

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected (voting together as a single class). The Indenture also contains provisions (i) permitting the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all affected series at the time Outstanding (voting together as a single class), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture with respect to such series and (ii) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected under the Indenture (voting together as a single class), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of at least 25% of the principal amount of the Securities of all affected series at the time Outstanding (voting together as a single class) shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of all affected series at the time Outstanding (voting together as a single class) a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee and any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

[This Security is a Global Security and is subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to Global Securities, including the limitations in Section 305 of the Base Indenture and Section 2.4 and Section 2.6 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture on transfers and exchanges of Global Securities.]

Interest on the principal balance of this Security shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
