International Flavors & Fragrances Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., as nominee of The Depository Trust Company, or registered assigns, the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION Dollars, or such greater or lesser amount set forth on “Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note,” attached hereto, on June 1, 2047 and to pay interest thereon from May 18, 2017 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on June 1 and December 1 in each year, commencing December 1, 2017, at the rate of 4.375% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment; provided that any principal and any such installment of interest that is overdue shall bear interest at the rate of 4.375% per annum (to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) from the dates such amounts are due until they are paid or made available for payment. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for (except for Defaulted Interest), on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be on May 15 and November 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, next preceding such Interest Payment Date even if the Notes are cancelled, repurchased or redeemed after the Regular Record Date and on or before the Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to holders of Notes not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

The term “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or other day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or required by law or regulation to close.

Payments in respect of the Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) will be made by the transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the Depositary.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

(Reverse of Note)

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), issued under an Indenture, dated as of March 2, 2016, as supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 18, 2017 (collectively herein called the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture). This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $500,000,000. Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto or Officer’s Certificates for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

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

The Notes are subject to redemption prior to the stated maturity at any time, as a whole or from time to time, in part, at the election of the Company, at a Redemption Price, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, equal to (a) prior to December 1, 2046, the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date, excluding accrued and unpaid interest on the Redemption Date, discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis based at the Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points, as determined by the Reference Treasury Dealer, or (b) on or after December 1, 2046, 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed on that Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable to the holders of such Notes as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days, but not more than 60 days, before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes. If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all of the Notes, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee, in accordance with the rules of DTC, by lot or in such other manner the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate.

In the event of redemption or repurchase of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Noteholder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

Upon a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless the Company has previously exercised any right to redeem the Notes, each Noteholder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (in minimum denominations of $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such holder’s Notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”) at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof 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 the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurs or, at the Company’s option, prior to any Change of Control but after the public announcement of the pending Change of Control, the Company shall mail a notice to each Noteholder (with a written copy of such notice to the Trustee) describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the “Change of Control Payment Date”), pursuant to the procedures required herein and described in such notice. The notice, if mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, will state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control being completed on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Triggering Event provisions of the Notes or the Indenture, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under such Change of Control Triggering Event provisions by virtue of such conflicts.

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the holders of all of the Notes, to waive compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past Defaults (other than with respect to nonpayment or in respect of a provision that cannot be amended without the written consent of each Noteholder affected) under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Noteholder and upon all future holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Noteholder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee satisfactory indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding 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 Note 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 Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
