ARTICLE ONE

CREATION OF THE NOTES

Section 1.1 Designation of Series. Pursuant to the terms hereof and Sections 201 and 301 of the Base Indenture, the Company hereby creates a series of its senior debt securities designated as the “2.250% Senior Notes due 2025” (the “Notes”), which Notes shall be deemed “Securities” for all purposes under the Indenture.

Section 1.2 Form and Denomination of Notes.

(a)    The definitive form of the Notes shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, which is incorporated herein and made part hereof. The Notes shall bear interest and have such other terms as are stated in the form of definitive Notes or in the Indenture. The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be May 18, 2025. The Notes shall be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Base Indenture, an electronic signature shall be sufficient for all purposes under the Indenture where a manual or facsimile signature would otherwise be required, and no corporate seal shall be required to be reproduced on any security.

Section 1.3 Initial Limit on Amount of Series. The Notes shall initially be limited to U.S. $750,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, and may, upon the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture or from time to time thereafter, be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver said Notes to or upon the delivery of a Company Order. Following the initial issuance of the Notes, the aggregate principal amount of Notes may be increased as provided in Section 1.10.

Section 1.4 Rank. The Notes are unsecured and shall rank equally among themselves and with all of the Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

Section 1.5 Redemption.

(a)    The Company may not redeem the Notes at any time prior to November 18, 2020. The Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or

2

from time to time on or after November 18, 2020. In the case of any redemption of the Notes, the “Redemption Price” shall be equal to (i) at any time or from time to time on or after November 18, 2020 and prior to April 18, 2025 (the date that is one month prior to the scheduled maturity date of the Notes), the greater of (x) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, or (y) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments determined as provided below, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (which must be a Business Day); and (ii) at any time or from time to time on or after April 18, 2025 (the date that is one month prior to the scheduled maturity date of the Notes), 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (which must be a Business Day). If the Redemption Price in respect of the Notes is not paid on the Redemption Date, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes will continue to accrue until the Redemption Price is actually paid or set aside for payment. In determining the present values of the remaining scheduled payments, the Company will discount such payments to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus .30% (30 basis points). The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third business day preceding the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Notes registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Date according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

(b)    Section 1102 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended to require that the written notice to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 1102 of the Base Indenture be delivered at least 45 days prior to the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), rather than at least 45 days prior to the giving of the notice of redemption in Section 1104.

(c)    Section 1104 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended to require that the notice to be delivered to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed shall be given in the manner provided in Section 106 of the Base Indenture (or, if the Notes are held in book-entry form through DTC, in any such manner as may be then permitted by DTC). Any notice given to a Holder with respect to the Notes in the matter set forth in this Section 1.5(c) shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

Section 1.6 No Repayment or Sinking Fund. The Notes will not be subject to redemption or repayment at the option of any Holder at any time prior to the Stated Maturity. No sinking fund will be provided with respect to the Notes.

Section 1.7 Notes Not Convertible or Exchangeable. The Notes will not be convertible or exchangeable for other securities or property.

Section 1.8 Issuance of Notes; Selection of Depository. The Notes shall be issued as Registered Securities in permanent global form, without coupons. The initial Depository for the Notes shall be DTC.

Section 1.9 No Additional Amounts; No Make-Whole Amounts. Except in connection with the certain optional redemption circumstances set forth in Section 1.5, no Additional Amounts or Make-Whole Amounts shall be payable with respect to the Notes.

Section 1.10 Further Issuances. The Company may, without consent of the Holders of the Notes but in compliance with the terms of the Indenture, increase the principal amount of the Notes by issuing additional Notes on the same terms and conditions as the Notes, except for any differences in the issue price and interest accrued prior to the date of issuance of the additional Notes, and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes; provided that if any additional notes are not fungible with the notes offered hereby for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional notes will be issued under a separate CUSIP number. The Notes and any additional Notes issued by the Company will rank equally and ratably and shall be treated as a single series of Securities for all purposes under the Indenture. No additional Notes shall be issued at any time that there is an Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the Notes that has occurred and is continuing.

Section 1.11 Remedies.

(a)    Notwithstanding Section 501(4) and 502 of the Base Indenture, an Event of Default with respect to the Notes under Section 501(4) related to a breach of the covenant contained in clause (x) of the second paragraph of Section 1009 of the Base Indenture shall not permit acceleration of the Notes under Section 502.

(b)    Pursuant to Section 501(8) of the Base Indenture, an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall also mean either of the following events: (i) the appointment by a competent government agency having primary regulatory authority over the Principal Subsidiary Bank under any applicable federal or state banking law, Bankruptcy Law or similar law now or hereafter in effect of a receiver of the Principal Subsidiary Bank, or (ii) the entry of a decree or order in any case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state banking law, Bankruptcy Law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect appointing any receiver of the Principal Subsidiary Bank.

Section 1.12 Modifications Without Consent of Holders. Solely for the benefit of the Notes, Section 901 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended to add the following subsection (13):

(13) to the extent not otherwise inconsistent with the Indenture, to conform the terms of the Notes or the Indenture with the description set forth in the prospectus supplement relating to the Notes, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate.

REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of senior debt securities of the Company designated as its “2.250% Senior Notes due 2025” (the “Notes”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to U.S. $750,000,000 issued and to be issued under an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2005 (herein called the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Base Indenture), as amended and supplemented by the Eleventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 18, 2020 between the Company and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture”; the Base Indenture, as amended and supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made 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. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denominations as requested by the Holder surrendering the same upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. The Trustee upon such surrender by the Holder will issue the new Notes in the requested denominations.

No sinking fund is provided with respect to the Notes. The Company may not redeem the Notes at any time prior to November 18, 2020. The Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time on or after November 18, 2020 and prior to April 18, 2025 (the date that is one month prior to the scheduled maturity date of the Notes), at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, or (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments determined as provided in Section 1.5(a) of the Supplemental Indenture, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (which must be a Business Day). At any time or from time to time on or after April 18, 2025 (the date that is one month prior to the scheduled maturity date of the Notes), the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date (which must be a Business Day). If the Redemption Price in respect of the Notes is not paid on the Redemption Date, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Notes will continue to accrue until the Redemption Price is actually paid or set aside for payment. The Notes will not be subject to redemption or repayment at the option of any Holder at any time prior to the Stated Maturity.

The Notes are unsecured and rank equally among themselves and with all of the Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

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

The Company may, without consent of the holders of the Notes, increase the principal amount of the Notes by issuing additional securities in the future on the same terms and conditions as the Notes, except for any difference in the issue price and interest accrued prior to

A-5

the date of issuance of the additional securities, and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes. The Notes and any additional Notes issued by the Company would rank equally and ratably and would be treated as a single series for all purposes under the Indenture.

In any case where the due date for the payment of the principal of or interest on any Note at any Place of Payment, as the case may be, is not a Business Day, then payment of principal or interest need not be made on or by such date at such place but may be made on or by the next succeeding Business Day, with the same force and effect as if made on the date for such payment, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period after such date.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default under Section 501(4) of the Base Indenture relating to a breach of the covenant contained in clause (x) of the second paragraph of Section 1009 of the Base Indenture) shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes, together with accrued interest to the date of declaration, 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 Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note or such other 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 Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes 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 any Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or interest on this Note 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 interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

A-6

The Notes will be subject to defeasance and covenant defeasance pursuant to Sections 1402 and 1403 of the Base Indenture.
