[FORM OF REVERSE OF 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 (For Unsecured Debt Securities), dated as of November 1, 2017 (herein called the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture, including the Board Resolutions and Officer’s Certificate filed with the Trustee on August 24, 2020, creating the series designated on the face hereof (herein called the “Officer’s Certificate”), 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 of this series and of the terms upon which the Securities of this series are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof.
Interest and Payment. The Securities of this series shall bear interest at a variable rate per annum (the “Interest Rate”) equal to the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate (as defined below), minus 30 basis points (0.30%) (negative 0.30%, the “Margin”), reset quarterly, subject to the provisions set forth below, provided that the rate shall not be less than 0.00%. The Interest Rate for the period from August 24, 2020, the date of original issuance, to but excluding the first Interest Payment Date was determined on August 20, 2020. The Interest Rate on the Securities of this series for each subsequent Interest Period will be reset quarterly on the related LIBOR Rate Reset Date (as defined below).
The Securities of this series will bear interest for each Interest Period at a rate determined by the Calculation Agent, except as set forth below. Promptly upon determination, the Calculation Agent will inform the Trustee and the Company, or in certain circumstances described below, the Company or its designee (which may be an independent financial advisor or any other designee of the Company (any of such entities, a “Designee”)) will inform the Trustee, of the Interest Rate for the next Interest Period.
The Interest Rate in effect on any LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be the applicable Interest Rate as reset on that date and the Interest Rate applicable to any other day will be the Interest Rate as reset on the immediately preceding LIBOR Rate Reset Date. The amount of interest payable for any Interest Period on the Securities of this series (the “Interest Amount”) will be determined by the Company and will be computed by multiplying the floating rate for that Interest Period by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the actual number of days elapsed during that Interest Period (determined by including the first day of the Interest Period and excluding the last day), and the denominator of which will be 360, and by multiplying the result by the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series. The Interest Rate for any Interest Period will at no time be higher than the maximum rate then permitted by applicable law. The determination of the Interest Amount by the Company will (in the absence of willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding on all concerned. None of the Trustee, the Calculation Agent or the Company (or any of their respective officers, directors, agents, beneficiaries, employees or affiliates) or the Designee shall have any liability to any Person for (i) the selection of the Reference Banks or the Major Banks or (ii) failure of the
A - 4

Reference Banks or the Major Banks to provide quotations to the Calculation Agent. Promptly upon the calculation of the Interest Amount, the Company will notify the Trustee of such Interest Amount.
If an Interest Payment Date, other than a Redemption Date, a Repayment Date, the Stated Maturity Date or the New Maturity Date of the Securities of this series, falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of such delay) with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, except that if such next Business Day occurs in the next succeeding calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. If a Redemption Date, a Repayment Date, the Stated Maturity Date or the New Maturity Date of the Securities of this series falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest or principal payable on such Redemption Date, Repayment Date, Stated Maturity Date or New Maturity Date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and no interest will be paid or other payment made in respect of such delay), and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after such Redemption Date, Repayment Date, Stated Maturity Date or New Maturity Date, as applicable. If any LIBOR Rate Reset Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that if such next Business Day occurs in the next succeeding calendar month, the LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. The Interest Rate in effect on any LIBOR Rate Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such LIBOR Rate Reset Date and the Interest Rate applicable to any other day will be the Interest Rate as reset on the immediately preceding LIBOR Rate Reset Date. The provisions of this paragraph shall supersede the provisions of Section 113 of the Indenture to the extent the provisions are inconsistent.
“Calculation Agent” means a banking institution or trust company appointed by the Company to act as calculation agent, initially The Bank of New York Mellon.
“LIBOR Business Day” means any day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. Dollars are transacted in the London Inter‑Bank Market.
“LIBOR Interest Determination Date” means (i) the second LIBOR Business Day preceding each LIBOR Rate Reset Date or (ii) August 20, 2020, in the case of the initial Interest Period.
“LIBOR Rate Reset Date” means, subject to the paragraph immediately preceding the definition of “Calculation Agent” set forth above, the 24th day of February, May, August and November of each year continuing until the Maturity, commencing on November 24, 2020.
“Three‑Month LIBOR Rate” means the rate determined in accordance with the following provisions:
(1) On the related LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will determine the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate, which will be the rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars having an index maturity of three months which appears on the Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM” (or on such other page as may replace the
A - 5

Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM” on that service), or, if on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Three‑Month LIBOR does not appear or is not available on the designated Bloomberg L.P. page “BBAM,” the Reuters Page LIBOR01 (or such other page as may replace the Reuters Page LIBOR01 on that service), as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date.
(2) If the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate cannot be determined as described above on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of four major reference banks in the London Inter‑Bank Market (“Reference Banks”) selected by the Company to provide it with their offered quotations for deposits in U.S. Dollars for the period of three months, commencing on the applicable LIBOR Rate Reset Date, to prime banks in the London Inter‑Bank Market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000. If at least two quotations are provided, then the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate will be the average (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) of a percent) of those quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, then the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate will be the average (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundredth (0.01) of a percent) of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the LIBOR Interest Determination Date by three major banks in New York City selected by the Company (“Major Banks”) for loans in U.S. Dollars to leading European banks, having a three‑month maturity and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000. If the Major Banks are not providing quotations in the manner described by this paragraph, the rate for the interest period following the LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the rate already in effect on that LIBOR Interest Determination Date.
Notwithstanding clause (1) and clause (2) of the definition of the Three‑Month LIBOR Rate, if the Company (or its Designee) determines on or prior to the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date (each, as defined herein) have occurred with respect to LIBOR (or the then-current Benchmark, as applicable), then the provisions set forth below under “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event”, which are referred to as the “benchmark transition provisions,” will thereafter apply to all determinations of the rate of interest payable on the Securities of this series. In accordance with the benchmark transition provisions, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the amount of interest that will be payable for each Interest Period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of the Benchmark Replacement (as defined herein) and the Margin specified herein. However, if the Company (or its Designee) determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the then-current Benchmark, but for any reason the Benchmark Replacement has not been determined as of the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date, the Interest Rate for the applicable Interest Period will be equal to the Interest Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Period, as determined by the Company (or its Designee).
The Interest Rate for any Interest Period will at no time be higher than the maximum rate then permitted by applicable law.
A - 6

All percentages resulting from any calculation of the Interest Rate will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 3.876545% (or .03876545) being rounded to 3.87655% (or .0387655)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards). Any percentage resulting from any calculation of any Interest Rate for the Securities of this series less than 0.00% will be deemed to be 0.00% (or .0000).
Absent willful misconduct, bad faith or manifest error, the calculation of the applicable Interest Rate for each Interest Period by the Calculation Agent, or in certain circumstances described below, by the Company or its Designee will be final and binding on the Company, the Trustee, and the Holders of the Securities of this series. The Holders of the Securities of this series may obtain the Interest Rate for the current and preceding Interest Periods by writing the Trustee at The Bank of New York Mellon, Attn: Corporate Trust Administration, 240 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10286.
In no event shall the Calculation Agent be responsible for determining any substitute for LIBOR, or for making any adjustments to any alternative benchmark or spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology for calculating any such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, the Calculation Agent will be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its Designee and will have no liability for such actions taken at the direction of the Company.
Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company or its Designee in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement, including any determination with respect to a rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, may be made in the Company’s or its Designee’s sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the transaction documents, will become effective without consent from any other party. Neither the Trustee nor the Calculation Agent will have any liability for any determination made by or on behalf of the Company or its Designee in connection with a Benchmark Transition Event or a Benchmark Replacement.
Effect of Benchmark Transition Event.
Benchmark Replacement. If the Company (or its Designee) determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Securities of this series in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates.
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Company (or its Designee) will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time.
A - 7

Decisions and Determinations. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company (or its Designee) pursuant to this subsection “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event,” including any determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, will be made in the Company’s (or its Designee’s) sole discretion, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the documentation relating to the Securities of this series, shall become effective without consent from the holders of the Securities of this series or any other party.
Certain Defined Terms. As used under the caption “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event”:

“Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company (or its Designee) as of the Benchmark Replacement Date:

A - 8

or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement;

“Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(1) | in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide the Benchmark; or

(2) | in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination.
“Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark:

(3) | a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Benchmark announcing that the Benchmark is no longer representative.

“Compounded SOFR” means the compounded average of SOFRs for the applicable Corresponding Tenor, with the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate being established by the Company (or its Designee) in accordance with:

(1) | the rate, or methodology for this rate, and conventions for this rate selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for determining Compounded SOFR; provided that:

For the avoidance of doubt, the calculation of Compounded SOFR shall exclude the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment and the Margin specified herein.

• | the principal amount of the Security of this series to be repaid;

• | the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of the Security of this series; and

A - 13

the fifth Business Day after the date of that facsimile transmission or letter.
The repayment option may be exercised by a Holder of a Security of this series for less than the entire principal amount of the Security of this series but, in that event, the principal amount of the Security of this series remaining Outstanding after repayment must be in an authorized denomination.
Conditional Right to Shorten Maturity.
If a Tax Event (as defined below) occurs, the Company will have the right to shorten the Maturity of the Securities of this series to a new date (the “New Maturity Date”), without the consent of the Holders of the Securities of this series,

• | to the minimum extent required, in the opinion of nationally recognized independent tax counsel, so that, after shortening the Maturity, interest paid on the Securities of this series will be deductible for United States federal income tax purposes or

• | if that counsel cannot opine definitively as to such a minimum period, the minimum extent so required to maintain the Company’s interest deduction,

in each case, to the extent deductible under current law, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors, after receipt of an opinion of that counsel regarding the applicable legal standards. In that case, the amount payable on the Securities of this series on the New Maturity Date will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities of this series to but excluding the New Maturity Date. If the Company elects to exercise its right to shorten the Maturity of the Securities of this series when a Tax Event occurs, the Company will give notice to each Holder of Securities of this series not more than sixty (60) days after the occurrence of the Tax Event, stating the New Maturity Date of the Securities of this series.
“Tax Event” means that the Company shall have received an opinion of nationally recognized independent tax counsel to the effect that, as a result of:

• | any amendment to, clarification of, or change (including any announced prospective amendment, clarification or change) in any law, or any regulation thereunder, of the United States;

• | any judicial decision, official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, regulation, notice or announcement, including any notice or announcement of intent to adopt or promulgate any ruling, regulatory procedure or regulation (any of the foregoing, an “administrative or judicial action”); or

• | any amendment to, clarification of, or change in any official position with respect to, or any interpretation of, an administrative or judicial action or a law

A - 14

or regulation of the United States that differs from the previously generally accepted position or interpretation,
in each case, occurring on or after August 19, 2020, there is more than an insubstantial increase in the risk that interest paid by the Company on the Securities of this series is not, or will not be, deductible, in whole or in part, by the Company for United States federal income tax purposes.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture, including the Officer’s Certificate described above.

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 a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time Outstanding in respect of which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing 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, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Securities of all series at the time Outstanding in respect of which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for sixty (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
