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 TCM 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.

“Trigger Period” has the meaning assigned to such term in the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event.

“Voting Stock” solely as used in the definition of the term “Change of Control,” means, with respect to any Person 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.

ARTICLE 2
ESTABLISHMENT OF SECURITIES

The following provisions of this Article 2 and certain provisions of Article 3 are made pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Original Indenture in order to establish and set forth the terms of the series of Securities described in Section 2.01.

Section 2.01. Title of Securities.

There is hereby established a series of Securities designated the “5.611% Senior Notes due 2034” (the “Notes”).

Section 2.02. Aggregate Principal Amount of Notes.

There are initially to be authenticated and delivered $500,000,000 principal amount of the Notes. Such principal amount of the Notes may be increased from time to time pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Original Indenture.

All Notes of this series need not be issued at the same time and such series may be reopened at any time, without the consent of any Holder, for issuances of additional Notes of such series. Any such additional Notes will have the same ranking, interest rate, maturity date, redemption rights and other terms as the Notes initially issued, other than the issue date, the issue price and, if applicable, the first interest payment date and the first date from which interest will accrue. Any such additional Notes, together with the Notes initially issued, will constitute a single series of Securities under the Indenture; provided, however, that if such additional Notes are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax purposes with the originally issued Notes, such additional Notes shall be issued under a separate CUSIP number.

Nothing contained in this Section 2.02 or elsewhere in this Supplemental Indenture, or in the Notes, is intended to or shall limit execution by the Company or the Guarantors or authentication or delivery by the Series Trustee of Notes under the circumstances contemplated by Sections 2.7, 2.8, 2.11 and 9.6 of the Original Indenture.

The Notes shall be issued in registered form without coupons. The Notes shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto. The form of the Series Trustee’s certificate of authentication for the Notes shall be in substantially the form set forth in the form of Note attached hereto. Each Note shall be dated the date of authentication thereof. The entire initially issued principal amount of the Notes shall initially be evidenced by one or more Global Securities registered in the name of the Depositary. The Notes shall not be issuable in definitive form except under limited circumstances specified in Section 2.14 of the Original Indenture.

Section 2.03. Payment of Principal and Interest on the Notes.

The Notes will mature on March 11, 2034. If March 11, 2034 is not a Business Day, the related payment of interest and principal on such maturity date shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after March 11, 2034. The Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 5.611% per annum. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually, in cash, in arrears on March 11 and September 11 of each year, commencing on September 11, 2024, to the Holders thereof at the close of business on the immediately preceding February 25 and August 28 of each year. Interest on the Notes will accrue from and including the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid or provided for, from and including the Issue Date. Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date (as defined in the form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A) on the Notes is not a Business Day, the payment of interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day and no additional interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the next succeeding Business Day.

Section 2.04. Denominations.

The Notes will be issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 2.05. Authentication.

The Series Trustee or an authenticating agent shall authenticate and deliver the Notes in accordance with Section 2.3 of the Original Indenture.

Section 2.06. Optional Redemption.

(a) Prior to December 11, 2033 (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 thereon 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, but not including, the redemption date.

(b) On or after 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 equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date.

(c) The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d) Unless the Company defaults 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.

(e) The calculation or determination of the redemption price shall be made by the Company or on its behalf by such Person as the Company shall designate. For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation or determination of the redemption price, including the determination of any Treasury Rate, shall not be the obligation or responsibility of the Series Trustee or Paying Agent.

(f) Installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date.

(g) Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures), in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Original Indenture, 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 given more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance or a satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture pursuant to Article VIII of the Original Indenture.

The notice shall identify the Notes to be redeemed and corresponding CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code numbers, as applicable, and will state:

(1) the redemption date;

(2) the redemption price or the methodology for the calculation thereof and the amount of accrued interest, if any, to be paid;

(3) if any Global Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Global Security to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Global Security, the principal amount thereof will be decreased by the portion thereof redeemed pursuant thereto;

(4) if any Certificated Security is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Certificated Security to be redeemed, and that, after the redemption date, upon surrender of such Certificated Security, a new Certificated Security in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion thereof will be issued in the name of the Holder thereof upon cancellation of the original Certificated Security;

(5) the name and address of the Paying Agent(s) to which the Notes are to be surrendered for redemption;

(6) that the Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the relevant Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(7) that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment, interest on the Notes called for redemption cease to accrue on and after the redemption date;

(8) that the Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the Paying Agent to collect the redemption price;

(9) the paragraph of the Notes and/or Section of the Indenture or any supplemental indenture pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

(10) that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP, ISIN or Common Code numbers, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

At the Company’s written request delivered at least 20 days prior to the redemption date (unless a shorter notice period is agreed to by the Series Trustee), the Series Trustee shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense.

(h) 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 Series 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 of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depositary (or another depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.

Section 2.07. Offer to Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes as set forth in Section 2.06(a), each Holder of the Notes shall have the right to require the Company to purchase all or a portion (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes as set forth in this Section 2.07 (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, to, but excluding, the date of purchase.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date (as defined below) will be payable on the applicable Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date.

Within 30 days following the date upon which a Change of Control Triggering Event with respect to the Notes 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 be required to deliver a written notice to each Holder of Notes at its registered address, with a copy to the Series Trustee, which written notice will govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such written notice will state, among other things, the purchase date, which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such written notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”).

To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 2.07, the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached the Company’s obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such conflict.

Westinghouse Air Brake Technologies Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (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.]^*, or registered assigns (the “Holder”), the principal sum of ($ ) on March 11, 2034 (the “Stated Maturity”), and to pay interest thereon from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Issue Date, semi-annually, in cash, in arrears on March 11 and September 11 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on September 11, 2024, at a rate of 5.611% per annum until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the preceding February 25 or August 28, as applicable (each, a “Regular Record Date”) (whether or not a Business Day); provided that the interest payable at the Stated Maturity will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable. 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 is registered at the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Series Trustee, notice of which shall be given to Holders of the 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 the Depositary and any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed or traded, and upon such notice as may be required by the Depositary and such exchange or automated quotation system.

Payments of interest on the Notes will include interest accrued to but excluding the respective Interest Payment Dates. Interest payments for the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest shall accrue on the amount of interest due on that Interest Payment Date for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date of payment. If the Stated Maturity is not a Business Day, the related payment of interest and principal on such Stated Maturity shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after such Stated Maturity.

Payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes will be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, with any such payment that is due at the Stated Maturity of any Note being made upon surrender of such Note to a Paying Agent; provided, however, that payment of interest, subject to such surrender where applicable, (i) may be made at the Company’s option by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the records maintained by the Registrar or the Company and (ii) in the case of any Global Security, must be made by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in writing to the Series Trustee at least sixteen (16) days prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto.

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.

REVERSE OF SENIOR NOTE

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture dated as of August 8, 2013, as supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 3, 2016 (together, the “Original Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined in the Indenture) and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Original Trustee (herein called the “Original Trustee”, which term includes any successor to the Original Trustee under the Indenture), and a Twelfth Supplemental Indenture dated as of March 11, 2024 (the “Supplemental Indenture,” the Original Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture and as further amended or supplemented from time to time, herein called the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), among the Company, the Guarantors, the Original Trustee and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as Series Trustee (herein called the “Series Trustee”, which term includes any successor to the Series 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 Guarantors, the Original Trustee, the Series Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof (the “Notes”) which is unlimited in aggregate principal amount.

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

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

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company, the Guarantors and the Series Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute, or to order or direct the Series Trustee to institute, any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, 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 Series 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 Series Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Series Trustee and offered the Series Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred or reasonably probable to be incurred in compliance with such request, the Series Trustee for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute any such proceeding and no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Series Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes. 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 premium, if any, or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed or provided for herein.

A-6

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of the Notes or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company or any Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes 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 Note is registrable with the Registrar, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Registrar or the Company in a place for payment for this Note, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

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

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange 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.

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