|
|
| Aggregate Principal Amount: |
|
$750,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2026 Notes. $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 2036 Notes. The Company may reopen either or both series of Notes for additional issuances of Notes of the applicable series from time
to time pursuant to the terms of the Indenture. |

|
| Denominations: |
|
$2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof in book-entry form only. |
|
|
| Stated Maturity Date: |
|
The 2026 Notes will mature on January 15, 2026. The 2036 Notes will mature on January 15, 2036. |
|
|
| Interest Rate: |
|
4.15% per annum from January 14, 2016 with respect to the 2026 Notes. 5.10% per annum from January 14, 2016 with respect to the 2036 Notes. |
|
|
|
|
|
| Interest Payment Dates: |
|

|
|
| Regular Record Dates: |
|
January 1 and July 1 (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding an Interest Payment Date. |
|

At any time prior to October 15, 2025 (three months before the maturity date of the 2026 Notes) in the case of the 2026 Notes, and July 15,
2035 (six months before the maturity date of the 2036 Notes) in the case of the 2036 Notes, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes of the applicable series, at its option, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of:
• 100% of the
principal amount of the Notes of the series then outstanding to be redeemed; or
• the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and
interest on the Notes of the series to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points in the case of the 2026 Notes and 35 basis points in the case of the 2036 Notes;
plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date: (1)
the rate per annum equal to the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15(519)” or any successor publication which
is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and that establishes yields on actively traded U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for
the |
- 2 -
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining life (as defined
below), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and such rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearer
month); or (2) if such release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable
Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such Redemption Date.
The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the date fixed
for redemption. “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S.
Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (“remaining life”) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in
accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means (1) the average of six Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding
the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the independent investment banker obtains fewer than six such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.
“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference
Treasury Dealers that the Company appoints to act as the independent investment banker from time to time. |
- 3 -
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of (1) Barclays Capital Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan
Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and their respective successors, provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer in the United States (a “primary treasury
dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another primary treasury dealer and (2) two other primary treasury dealers selected by the Company after consultation with the Independent Investment Banker.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted
in writing to the independent investment banker at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed first-class, postage-prepaid at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder of
the Notes of the series to be redeemed. 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. If less than all of the
Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Notes of such series to be redeemed shall be selected by lot by the trustee or by such other method as the trustee deems to be fair and appropriate. 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. At any time on or after
October 15, 2025 (three months before the maturity date of the 2026 Notes), |

|
|
|
|
in the case of the 2026 Notes, and July 15, 2035 (six months before the maturity date of the 2036 Notes), in the case of the 2036 Notes, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes of the applicable series, at its option,
at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes of such series to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. |

REVERSE OF SECURITY
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 May 18, 2009 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term
includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto (including as supplemented by an Officers’ Certificate pursuant 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 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 Company may redeem some or all of the Securities of this series upon not less
than 30 days’ notice by mail, at any time and from time to time prior to October 15, 2025, at the election of the Company, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of a) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding to
be redeemed; or b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the
Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed
to, but not including, the Redemption Date, but interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of
business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.
The Company may redeem
some or all of the Securities of this series upon not less than 30 days’ notice by mail, at any time and from time to time on or after October 15, 2025, at the election of the Company, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.
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 more than 50% 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
4
at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, 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 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.
The
Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of the Company on this Security upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Security.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder, alter or
impair the right of the Holder, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed, except for
Section 113 of the Indenture (which limits interest to the maximum amount permissible by law), the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registerable 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, 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 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 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 may 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 neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
All terms used in this Security which are defined in the
Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture (including as the Indenture is supplemented by the Officers’ Certificate, dated January 14, 2016, establishing the form and terms of the Securities of this series).

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 Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

This security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”) issued and to be

includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto (including as supplemented by an Officers’ Certificate pursuant 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 Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one

The Company may redeem some or all of the Securities of this series upon not less
than 30 days’ notice by mail, at any time and from time to time prior to July 15, 2035, at the election of the Company, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of a) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities then outstanding to be
redeemed; or b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities to be redeemed (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the
Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed
to, but not including, the Redemption Date, but interest installments whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to such Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of
business on the relevant Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as provided in the Indenture.
The Company may redeem
some or all of the Securities of this series upon not less than 30 days’ notice by mail, at any time and from time to time on or after July 15, 2035, at the election of the Company, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date.
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

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
4

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.

impair the right of the Holder, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed, except for
Section 113 of the Indenture (which limits interest to the maximum amount permissible by law), the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference.

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

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 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 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 may 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 neither the Company, the
