provided, however, that in determining whether the Holders of the requisite principal amount of such Notes Outstanding have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver hereunder, the Notes owned by the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor shall be disregarded and deemed not to be

4

Outstanding, except that, in determining whether the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon any such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver, only Notes which are registered in the Security Register in the name of the Company, any obligor stated to be so obligated on such Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or such obligor which is listed as such on an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee shall be so disregarded. Notes so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded as Outstanding if the pledgee establishes to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s right so to act with respect to such Notes and that the pledgee is not the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor. The Trustee shall be entitled to request and rely upon an Officers’ Certificate as conclusive evidence regarding the ownership or pledge of Notes by the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Affiliate of the Company or of such other obligor.

(a) any amendment to, or change in, the laws, rules or regulations of the United States (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any agency or instrumentality of the United States, including the Federal Reserve and other federal bank regulatory agencies) or any political subdivision of or in the United States that is enacted or becomes effective after the initial issuance of the Notes;

(b) any proposed change in those laws, rules or regulations that is announced or becomes effective after the initial issuance of the Notes; or

(c) any official administrative decision or judicial decision or administrative action or other official pronouncement interpreting or applying those laws, rules or regulations or policies with respect thereto that is announced after the original issue date of the Notes,

there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Company will not be entitled to treat the Notes then Outstanding as “Tier 2 Capital” (or its equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy rules of the Federal Reserve (or, as and if applicable, the capital adequacy rules or regulations of any successor Appropriate Federal Banking Agency) as then in effect and applicable, for so long as any Notes are Outstanding.

5

(b) a judicial decision, administrative action, 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

(c) an amendment to or change in any official position with respect to, or any interpretation of, an administrative or judicial action or a law or regulation of the United States that differs from the previously generally accepted position or interpretation;

in each case, occurring or becoming publicly known on or after the original issue date of the Notes, there is more than an insubstantial risk that interest payable by the Company on the Notes is not, or, within 90 days of the date of such opinion, will not be, deductible by the Company, in whole or in part, for United States federal income tax purposes; provided, however, that an interest disallowance or deferral pursuant to Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code as in effect on the date of this First Supplemental Indenture shall not be taken into account for purposes of this definition and thus shall not trigger a Tax Event.

“Three-Month LIBOR” means, as determined by the Calculation Agent:

(i)    The rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having an index maturity of three months as such rate is displayed on Bloomberg on page BBAM1 (or any other page as may replace such page on such service or any successor service for the purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of major banks for U.S. dollars) (“Bloomberg BBAM1”) as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date. In the event that three-month LIBOR is less than zero, three-month LIBOR shall be deemed to be zero. If no such rate so appears, three-month LIBOR on such Interest Determination Date will be determined in accordance with the provisions described in clause (ii) or (iii) below.

(ii)    With respect to an Interest Determination Date on which no rate is displayed on Bloomberg BBAM1 as specified in clause (i) above, the Calculation Agent shall request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks (which may include affiliates of the underwriters for any offering of the Notes) in the London interbank market, as selected by the Company, and whose name and contact information shall be provided by the Company in writing to the Calculation Agent, to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for deposits

7

in U.S. dollars having an index maturity of three months, commencing on the first day of the related Interest Period, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time. If at least two such quotations are so provided, then three-month LIBOR on such Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean calculated by the Calculation Agent of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are so provided, then three-month LIBOR on such Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean calculated by the Calculation Agent of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., in New York City, on such Interest Determination Date by three major banks (which may include affiliates of the underwriters for any offering of the Notes) in New York City selected by the Company, and whose name and contact information shall be provided by the Company in writing to the Calculation Agent, for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, having an index maturity of three months and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks so selected by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, but a LIBOR Event (as defined below) has not occurred, three-month LIBOR for the upcoming Interest Period to which the Interest Determination Date relates shall be Three-Month LIBOR as in effect in the current Interest Period or, in the case of the first Interest Period in the Floating Rate Period, the most recent Three-Month LIBOR that can be determined by reference to Bloomberg BBAM1.

(iii) Notwithstanding clauses (i) and (ii) above, if the Company, in its sole discretion, determines that three-month LIBOR has been permanently discontinued or is no longer viewed as an acceptable benchmark for securities like the Notes and the Company has notified the Calculation Agent in writing of such determination (a “LIBOR Event”), the Calculation Agent will use, as directed by the Company in writing, as a substitute for three-month LIBOR (the “Alternative Rate”) for each future Interest Determination Date, the alternative reference rate selected by the central bank, reserve bank, monetary authority or any similar institution (including any committee or working group thereof) that is consistent with market practice regarding a substitute for three-month LIBOR. As part of such substitution, the Calculation Agent will, as directed by the Company in writing, make such adjustments to the Alternative Rate or the spread thereon, as well as the business day convention, Interest Determination Dates and related provisions and definitions (“Adjustments”), in each case that are consistent with market practice for the use of such Alternative Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines in its sole discretion that there is no alternative reference rate selected by the central bank, reserve bank, monetary authority or any similar institution (including any committee or working group thereof) that is consistent with market practice regarding a substitute for three-month LIBOR, the Company may, in its sole discretion, appoint an independent financial advisor (“IFA”) to determine an appropriate Alternative Rate and any Adjustments, and the decision of the IFA will be binding on the Company, the Calculation Agent, the Trustee and the holders of Notes. If a LIBOR Event has occurred, but for any reason an Alternative Rate has not been determined or the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that there is no such market practice for the use of such Alternative Rate (and, in each case, an IFA has not determined an appropriate Alternative Rate and Adjustments or an IFA has not been appointed), Three-Month LIBOR for the upcoming Interest Period to which the determination date relates shall be Three-Month LIBOR as in effect for the current Interest Period; provided, however, that if this sentence is applicable with respect to the first Interest Determination Date related to the Floating Rate Period, the interest rate, business day convention and manner of calculating interest applicable during the Fixed Rate Period will remain in effect during the Floating Rate Period.

8

The terms “Company,” “Trustee,” “Indenture,” “Base Indenture,” “Notes,” “Securities,” “First Supplemental Indenture” and “2028 Series” shall have the respective meanings set forth in the recitals to this First Supplemental Indenture and the paragraph preceding such recitals.

The terms “Adjustments,” “Alternative Rate,” “Bloomberg BBAM1,” “IFA” and “LIBOR Event” shall have the respective meanings set forth in the definition of Three-Month LIBOR.

Section 1.03 Acts of Holders of the Notes. Section 1.04 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes; provided, that, solely with respect to the Notes:

(i) the following shall replace clause (viii) thereof:

“(viii) The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, set a record date for purposes of determining the identity of Holders entitled to vote or consent to any action by vote or consent authorized or permitted under this Indenture, which record date shall be the later of 10 days prior to the first solicitation of such consent or the date of the most recent list of Holders furnished to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.01 of this Indenture prior to such solicitation. If a record date is fixed, those persons who were Holders of Securities at such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and only those persons, shall be entitled to take such action by vote or consent or to revoke any vote or consent previously given, whether or not such persons continue to be Holders after such record date, provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. No such vote or consent shall be valid or effective for more than 120 days after such record date.”, and

(ii) the following clauses shall be added to the end of Section 1.04 of the Base Indenture as clauses (ix) and (x) thereof:

“(ix) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities of any series entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 7.07(ii) or (iii) any direction referred to in Section 7.12, in each case with respect to Securities of such series. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of such series on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities of the

9

relevant series on the date such action is taken. Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06.

(x) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.04, the party hereto which sets such record dates may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities of the relevant series in the manner set forth in Section 1.06, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section, the party hereto which set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the applicable record date.”.

ARTICLE 2

ESTABLISHMENT OF THE 2028 SERIES

AND TERMS OF THE NOTES

Section 2.01 Establishment of the Series of the Notes and Designation. There is hereby authorized and established a series of Securities designated as the “5.90% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2028,” initially offered in the aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000. The Notes that are a part of such series of Securities shall have the terms set forth in the Base Indenture and this First Supplemental Indenture, and the Notes shall be in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A as provided in Section 5.01 hereof.

Section 2.02 Maturity. The date upon which the principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall become due and payable at final maturity, together with any accrued and unpaid interest then owing, is November 6, 2028 (the “Stated Maturity Date”), unless such Notes shall have been redeemed in full prior to such date pursuant to Article 3 hereof. If the Maturity Date falls on any day that is not a Business Day, interest and principal on the Notes will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day (without adjustment in the amount of the interest paid). Interest payable on the Maturity Date will be payable to the Person to whom the principal of the Notes shall be payable.

Section 2.03 Form, Payment and Appointment.

(a) The Notes will be issued in permanent global only form and will be represented by one or more Global Notes (the “Global Notes”) registered in the name of or held by The Depository Trust Company (and any successor thereto) (“DTC”) or its nominee. DTC and any successor depositary appointed in accordance with the provisions below, are referred to as the “Depositary”.

10

(b) Except as provided below, Notes represented by the Global Notes shall not be exchangeable for, and shall not otherwise be issuable as, Notes in certificated form. No Global Notes may be exchanged in whole or in part for Notes registered, and no transfer of a Global Note in whole or in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than DTC or a nominee thereof unless (A) DTC has notified the Company that it (i) is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Notes and the Company does not appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after receiving such notice, (B) DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and the Company does not appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days after becoming aware that DTC has ceased to be registered as a clearing agency, (C) the Company notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects to cause the issuance of Notes in definitive form, or (D) any event will have happened and be continuing which, after notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes. If the Company receives a notice or becomes aware of such occurrence of the kind specified in Clauses (A) or (B) above, it may, in its sole discretion, designate a successor Depositary for such Global Note within 90 days after receiving such notice or becoming aware of such occurrence. If the Company designates a successor Depositary as set forth above, such Global Note shall promptly be exchanged in whole for one or more other Global Notes registered in the name of the successor Depositary, whereupon such designated successor shall be the Depositary for such successor Global Note and the provisions of this section shall continue to apply thereto.

(c) In the circumstances described in Section 2.03(b) hereof, Notes in definitive form will be issued to each person that the Depositary identifies as the beneficial owner of the related Notes. Upon issuance of such Notes in definitive form, the Trustee shall register such Notes in the name of, and cause the same to be delivered to, such Person (or nominee thereof). Such Notes shall be issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000 and subsequently may not be exchanged by a Holder of Notes in denominations of less than $1,000.

(d) Neither any members of, or participants in, a Depositary, nor any other Persons on whose behalf such members or participants may act, shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note registered in the name of a Depositary or any nominee thereof, and the applicable Depositary or such nominee, as the case may be, may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee as the absolute owner and Holder of such Global Note for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar, any Authenticating Agent or any other agent of the Company or any agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Security in the form of a Global Note, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. The Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar, any Authenticating Agent, and any other agent of the Company and any agent of the Trustee shall be entitled to deal with a Depositary, and any nominee thereof, that is the Holder of a Global Note for all purposes of this Indenture relating to such Global Note (including the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, and the giving of instructions or directions by or to the owner or holder of a beneficial ownership interest in such Global Note) as the sole Holder of such Global Note and shall have no obligations to the beneficial owners thereof. None of the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Company or any agent of the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any acts

11

or omissions of a Depositary with respect to a Global Note, for the records of any such Depositary, including records in respect of beneficial ownership interests in respect of any such Global Note, for any transactions between such Depositary and any members or participants in such Depositary or other participant in such Depositary or between or among any such Depositary, any such member or participant in such Depositary or other participant and/or any holder or owner of a beneficial interest in such Global Note or for any transfers of beneficial interests in any such Global Note.

(e) Principal and, in the case of redemption, interest, if any, due on the Stated Maturity Date or any earlier date of redemption of a Note shall be payable against presentation and surrender of such Notes at the Place of Payment. Interest payable on an Interest Payment Date will be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds or, at the option of the Company in the event that the Notes are not represented by one or more Global Notes, by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the Security Register.

The Notes shall have such other terms as are set forth in the form thereof attached hereto as Exhibit A.

The Security Registrar, Paying Agent, the Trustee and the Calculation Agent for the Notes shall initially be Wilmington Trust, National Association.

The Notes will be issuable and may be transferred only in denominations of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof that is an integral multiple of $1,000. The amounts payable with respect to the Notes shall be payable in U.S. Dollars.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, (i) all payments on Global Notes may be made pursuant to the Applicable Procedures and (ii) any notice required to be given to Holders under the Indenture shall be sufficiently given if given to the Depositary for a Global Note (or its designee), pursuant to its Applicable Procedures, not later than the latest date (if any), and not earlier than the earliest date (if any), prescribed for the giving of such notice.

Section 2.04 Global Note. The Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more fully registered global notes (each such global note, a “Global Note”) registered in the name of DTC or its nominee and deposited with DTC or its designated custodian or such other Depositary as any officer of the Company may from time to time designate. Unless and until a Global Note is exchanged for Notes in certificated form in accordance with Section 2.03 hereof, such Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any payments on the Notes shall be made, only to DTC or a nominee of DTC, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.

Section 2.05 Interest.

(a) From and including the date of original issuance of the Notes to, but excluding November 6, 2023 (such period, the “Fixed Rate Period”), the Company will pay interest on the Notes at a fixed interest rate equal to 5.90% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears, on May 6 and November 6 of each year, beginning on May 6, 2019 and ending on November 6, 2023. Unless redeemed, beginning with the Interest Payment Date on November 6, 2023, and on any Interest Payment Date thereafter to, but excluding the Maturity Date (the “Floating Rate Period”),

12

the interest rate will reset to an annual interest rate equal to Three-Month LIBOR plus a spread of 278 basis points per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on each February 6, May 6, August 6 and November 6 of each year, beginning on February 6, 2024, subject to potential adjustment as provided in the definition of three-month LIBOR. The determination of Three-Month LIBOR for each relevant Interest Period by the Calculation Agent will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding. The Calculation Agent’s calculation of the amount of any interest payable during the Floating Rate Period will be maintained on file at the Calculation Agent’s principal offices.

(b) Interest on the Notes will accrue beginning on and including an Interest Payment Date (except that the initial Interest Period shall commence on and include the date of original issuance of the Notes) and ending on but excluding the next Interest Payment Date (each such period, an “Interest Period”).

(c) Interest on the Notes on any Interest Payment Date shall be payable to the Persons in whose names the relevant Notes are registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. For the purpose of determining the Persons in whose names the relevant Notes are registered at the close of business on a Record Date that is not a Business Day, the close of business shall mean 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Record Date. Interest on the Notes payable on the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.02 and Section 3.03, respectively.

(d) The amount of interest payable for any Interest Period during the Fixed Rate Period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable for any Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period will be calculated based upon the actual number of days during the period divided by 360 days. Dollar amounts resulting from that calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upwards.

(e) If any Interest Payment Date on or before November 6, 2023 is not a Business Day, then such date will nevertheless be an Interest Payment Date but interest on the Notes will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day (without adjustment in the amount of the interest paid). If any such date after November 6, 2023 that would otherwise be an Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day will be the applicable Interest Payment Date and interest on the Notes will be paid on such next succeeding Business Day, unless such day falls in the next calendar month, in which case the Interest Payment Date will be brought forward to the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day. In addition, if the Maturity Date or the Redemption Date falls on any day that is not a Business Day interest and principal on the Notes will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day (without adjustment in the amount of the interest paid).

Section 2.14 Limitation on Suits. Solely for purposes of the Notes, the text of Section 7.07 of the Base Indenture is deleted and replaced with the following text.

The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then Outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the Trustee may, on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes, rescind an acceleration or waive any existing Default and its consequences under the Indenture.

In the case of a Default that is not also an Event of Default, neither the Trustee nor the Holders of the Notes will have the right to accelerate the Stated Maturity Date of the Notes. In such case, if the Default is continuing, the Trustee shall (at the direction of a majority of the Holders of the Notes, but subject to its rights to be indemnified prior to taking action) proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the Holders of Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Holders may direct to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in the Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted therein. Any such rights to receive payment of such amounts under the Notes remain subject to the subordination provisions of the provisions of the Notes and the Indenture set forth in Section 2.06 hereof.    There is no right of acceleration in the case of the Company’s failure to pay the principal of, or interest on, the Notes or the Company’s nonperformance of any other covenant or warranty under the Notes or the Indenture.”

Section 2.15 No Additional Amounts. In the event that any payment on the Notes is subject to withholding of any U.S. federal income tax or other tax or assessment (as a result of a change in law or otherwise), the Company will not pay additional amounts with respect to such tax or assessment.

Section 2.16 No Collateral. The Notes shall not be entitled to the benefit of any security interest in, or collateralization by, any rights, property or interest of the Company.

If any Redemption Date falls on any day that is not a Business Day, interest and principal on the Notes will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day (without adjustment in the amount of the interest paid).

REVERSE OF NOTE

NEW YORK COMMUNITY BANCORP, INC.

5.90% FIXED-TO-FLOATING RATE SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2028

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company of a series designated as the “5.90% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2028” (herein called the “Notes”) initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $300,000,000 on November 6, 2018. Such series of Securities has been established pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of November 6, 2018 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee), as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture between the Company and the Trustee, dated as of November 6, 2018 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”, and the Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and any other 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 Persons in whose names Notes are registered on the Security Register from time to time and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms of the Notes are those stated in the Indenture, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and those set forth in this Note. To the extent that the terms of this Note modify, supplement or are inconsistent with those of the Indenture, then the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

All capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined herein that are defined in the Base Indenture or the First Supplemental Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Base Indenture or the First Supplemental Indenture. If any capitalized term used and defined in this Note is also defined in the Base Indenture or the First Supplemental Indenture, in the event of any conflict in the meanings ascribed to such capitalized term, the definition of the capitalized term in this Note shall control.

The indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Notes, including the principal thereof and interest thereon, is subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future obligations of the Company constituting Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the First Supplemental Indenture), on the terms and subject to the terms and conditions as provided and set forth in the First Supplemental Indenture and shall rank at least equally in right of payment with all future unsecured subordinated indebtedness of the Company that do not by its terms rank junior to the Notes. Each Holder of this Security, by the acceptance hereof, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions of the Indenture and authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided.

If an Event of Default with respect to Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal and interest owed on the Notes shall only become due and payable in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 2.09 of the First Supplemental Indenture. Accordingly, the Holder of this Note has no right to accelerate the maturity of this Note in the event the Company fails to pay the principal of, or interest on, any of the Notes or fails to perform any other obligations under the Notes or in the Indenture that are applicable to the Notes.

The Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes: (a) in whole or in part on any Interest Payment Date on or after November 6, 2023 or (b) in whole, but not in part, at any time following the occurrence of a Tax Event, Tier 2 Capital Event or 1940 Act Event. Any such redemption will be at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus unpaid interest, if any, accrued thereon to but excluding the Redemption Date fixed by the Company. Any early redemption of the Notes by the Company will be subject to the receipt of the prior approval of the Federal Reserve, to the extent then required under capital adequacy rules of the Federal Reserve.

The Notes of this series are not entitled to the benefit of, or subject to, any sinking fund.

In the event that any payment on the Notes is subject to withholding of any U.S. federal income tax or other tax or assessment (as a result of a change in law or otherwise), the Company will not pay additional amounts with respect to such tax or assessment.

The Notes shall not be entitled to the benefit of any security interest in, or collateralization by, any rights, property or interest of the Company.

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 at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series (each series voting as a class) affected thereby and at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of a series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past Defaults and Event of 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 herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of, and interest on, this Note 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 Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

The Notes of this series shall not be convertible into, or exchangeable for, any equity securities, other securities or other assets of the Company or any Subsidiary.

The Notes of this series are issuable only in fully registered form without interest coupons, in minimum denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Company and the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

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 the principal of and interest (if any) on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

Wilmington Trust, National Association will act as the Company’s principal Paying Agent with respect to the Notes through its offices presently located at ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, Attn: New York Community Bancorp, Inc. Administrator. The Company may at any time rescind the designation of a Paying Agent, appoint a successor Paying Agent, or approve a change in the office through which any Paying Agent acts.

The Indenture contains provisions setting forth certain conditions to the institution of proceedings by the Holders of Notes with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy under the Indenture.

THE INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
