MPLX LP

5.00% Senior Notes due 2033

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of Debt Securities of the Partnership (herein called the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under a Senior Indenture, dated as of February 12, 2015, as amended or supplemented to date, including as supplemented and amended by the Twenty-Seventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 9, 2023 (herein called the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Partnership and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor 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 Partnership, 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 initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $1,100,000,000.

Prior to December 1, 2032, the Partnership may redeem the Securities at its option, in whole at any time or in part 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) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Securities to be redeemed discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming such Securities matured on December 1, 2032) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points less interest accrued to the Redemption Date, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

On or after December 1, 2032, the Partnership may redeem the Securities in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of such Securities to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date.

For purposes of the redemption provisions of the Securities, the following terms are applicable:

“Business Day” means any Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday that is not a day on which banking institutions in New York, New York or any Place of Payment are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield determined by the Partnership in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

2

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Partnership after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities–Treasury constant maturities–Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Partnership 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 December 1, 2032 (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 December 1, 2032 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, the Treasury constant maturity described above is no longer displayed on H.15, or if H.15 is no longer published, the Partnership 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, December 1, 2032. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on December 1, 2032 but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from December 1, 2032, one with a maturity date preceding December 1, 2032 and one with a maturity date following December 1, 2032, the Partnership shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding December 1, 2032. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on December 1, 2032 or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Partnership 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.

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

3

The Partnership will notify the Trustee of the redemption price promptly after the calculation thereof and the Trustee shall not be responsible or liable for any calculation of the redemption price or of any component thereof, or for determining whether manifest error has occurred.

Unless the Partnership defaults in payment of the redemption price, on or after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Securities for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Securities of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Security will state the portion of the principal amount of the Security to be redeemed.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security or of certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Partnership and the Trustee to modify the Indenture or any supplemental indenture without the consent of the Holders for one or more of the following purposes: (1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Partnership; (2) to surrender any right or power conferred by the Indenture, to add to the covenants for the protection of the Holders of the Securities or to add additional defaults or events of default; (3) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision of the Indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision of the Indenture, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture as shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders; (4) to permit qualification of the Indenture or any supplemental indenture under the TIA; (5) to permit or facilitate the issuance of Debt Securities of any series in uncertificated form; (6) to secure any or all Debt Securities; (7) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; (8) to add to, change or eliminate any of the provisions of the Indenture in respect of one or more Debt Securities, under certain conditions specified therein; (9) to evidence and provide acceptance of appointment thereunder by a successor or separate Trustee and to add to or change the provisions under the Indenture as necessary; and (10) to establish the form or terms of Debt Securities of any series as permitted by Sections 2.01 and 2.03 of the Indenture.

4

The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Partnership and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Partnership and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, to waive compliance by the Partnership 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.

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, the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then 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 indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities then 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 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 Partnership, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
