Section 3.03. Book-entry Provisions for Global Securities. (a) Each Global Security authenticated under the Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depository designated for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depository or nominee thereof or custodian therefor. Each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of the Indenture.

(b) Subject to Section 2.7 of the Base Indenture, any exchange of a Global Security for other Notes may be made in whole or in part, and all Notes issued in exchange for a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be registered in such names as the Depository for such Global Security shall direct in writing to the Trustee.

(c) Every Note authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be authenticated and delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Note is registered in the name of a Person other than the Depository for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

(d) Subject to the provisions of (e) below, the registered Holder may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under the Indenture or the Notes.

(e) Neither any members of, or participants in, the Depository (collectively, the “Agent Members”) nor any other Persons on whose behalf Agent Members may act shall have any rights under the Indenture with respect to any Global Security registered in the name of the Depository or any nominee thereof, or under any such Global Security, and the Depository 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 Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company or the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depository or such nominee, as the case may be, or impair, as between the Depository, its Agent Members and any other Person on whose behalf an Agent Member may act, the operation of customary practices of such Persons governing the exercise of the rights of a Holder of any Note.

Section 3.04. Additional Notes; Repurchases. The Company may, from time to time, subject to compliance with any other applicable provisions of the Indenture, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, create and issue pursuant to the Indenture additional Notes (the “Additional Notes”) having terms and conditions identical to those of the Initial Notes and ranking equally and ratably with the Initial Notes, except that Additional Notes:

The Company may, to the extent permitted by law, and directly or indirectly (regardless of whether such Notes are surrendered to the Company), purchase Notes in the open market or otherwise, whether by the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries or through a private or public tender or exchange offer or through counterparties to private agreements, including by cash-settled swaps or other derivatives. The Company shall cause any Notes so purchased (other than Notes purchased pursuant to cash-settled swaps or other derivatives) to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, together with a Company Order to cancel such Notes, and such Notes shall no longer be considered outstanding under the Indenture upon their purchase.

(e) On and after the redemption date for the Notes, interest shall cease to accrue on such Notes or any portion thereof called for redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest, if any.

Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Notes called for redemption shall become due and payable on the redemption date and at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Section 4.02. Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event. (a) If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs with respect to the Notes, unless the Company shall have exercised its option to redeem the Notes pursuant to Section 4.01 of this First Supplemental Indenture, each Holder of the Notes shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes to, but excluding, the repurchase date. Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the option of the Company, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control or event that may constitute the Change of Control, the Company shall deliver a notice (the “Change of Control Notice”) to each Holder of the Notes, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering (the “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase the Notes on the repurchase date specified in the notice at the option of the Holders, which date (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered. The Change of Control Notice shall, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Company’s obligation to repurchase the Notes is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

(b) On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i) accept for payment all the Notes or portions of the Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Notice;

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent or Tender Agent appointed for such purpose an amount equal to the aggregate repurchase price in respect of all the Notes or portions of the Notes properly tendered; and

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being repurchased by the Company.

(c) The Paying Agent or Tender Agent shall promptly deliver to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the repurchase price for the Notes, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 4.02, the Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer in connection with a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in connection with such Change of Control Repurchase Event in the manner and at the times required and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for such a Change of Control Offer made by the Company, and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

(e) If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company pursuant to Section 4.02(d) above, purchases all of the Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described in Section 4.02(b) above, to redeem all Notes that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Record Date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date).

(f) The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with any repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section 4.02, the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section 4.02 by virtue thereof; provided that the Company otherwise uses commercially reasonable efforts to permit Holders to exercise their rights and to fulfill its obligations in the time and in the manner specified in this Section 4.02 to the extent permitted by such securities laws or regulations.

(2) Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Securities (except Defaulted Interest) to the persons who are registered Holders of Securities at the close of business on the Record Date next preceding the interest payment date even though such Securities are canceled after the Record Date and on or before the interest payment date. Holders of Physical Securities must surrender Physical Securities to a Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

(3) Paying Agent, Transfer Agent and Registrar. Initially, Wilmington Trust, National Association, a national banking association, as trustee under the Indenture (the “Trustee”), shall act as Paying Agent, transfer agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent, transfer agent, Registrar or co-registrar without notice to the Holders. The Company may act as Paying Agent, transfer agent, Registrar or co-registrar.

(4) Indenture. This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture (as defined below). The Company issued the Securities under an Indenture dated as of November 15, 2017 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 15, 2017 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), in each case between the Company and the Trustee. The Securities are unsecured general obligations of the Company and constitute as the “4.500% Senior Notes due 2027”, initially limited to $750,000,000 in aggregate principal amount. The terms of the Securities include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S. Code Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”). Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein are used as defined in the Indenture.

(5) Redemption. The Company may redeem the Securities in whole at any time or from time to time in part prior to their Stated Maturity, at its option, pursuant to the following terms:

(a) At any time before September 1, 2027, the redemption price shall be equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments of such Securities, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. The redemption price shall be determined by the Company and the Trustee shall have no duty to verify any such determination made by the Company.

(b) At any time on or after September 1, 2027, the redemption price shall be equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Securities that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or prior to a redemption date shall be payable on the interest payment date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Record Date in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and the Indenture.

On and after the redemption date for the Securities, interest shall cease to accrue on such Securities or any portion thereof called for redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price and accrued interest, if any. On or before the redemption date for the Securities, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee or a Paying Agent, funds sufficient to pay the redemption price of the Securities to be redeemed on the redemption date, and (except if the redemption date shall be an interest payment date) accrued interest, if any. If less than all of the Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected pro rata or by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, in accordance with the procedures of the Depository; provided, however, that in no event shall Securities of a principal amount of $2,000 or less be redeemed in part.

Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Securities called for redemption shall become due and payable on the redemption date and at the applicable redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

A-5

(6) Change of Control Repurchase Event. If a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurs with respect to the Securities, unless the Company shall have exercised its option pursuant to Section (5) hereof to redeem the Securities, each Holder of the Securities shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Securities at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event with respect to the Securities or, at the option of the Company, prior to any Change of Control, but after the public announcement of the Change of Control or event that may constitute the Change of Control, the Company shall deliver a notice (the “Change of Control Notice”) to each Holder of the Securities, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event and offering (the “Change of Control Offer”) to repurchase such Securities on the repurchase date specified in the notice at the option of the Holders, which date (the “Change of Control Payment Date”) shall be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered. The Change of Control Notice shall, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Company’s obligation to repurchase the Securities is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i) accept for payment all the Securities or portions of the Securities properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Notice;

(ii) deposit with the Paying Agent or Tender Agent appointed for such purpose an amount equal to the aggregate repurchase price in respect of all the Securities or portions of the Securities properly tendered; and

(iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of the Securities being repurchased by the Company.

If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Securities validly tender and do not withdraw such Securities in a Change of Control Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of Control Offer in lieu of the Company pursuant to Section 4.02(d) of the First Supplemental Indenture, purchases all of the Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to the Change of Control Offer described above, to redeem all Securities that remain outstanding following such purchase at a redemption price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding the redemption date (subject to the right of Holders of record on a Record Date to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date).

A-6

The Company shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with any repurchase of the Securities as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with this Section (6), the Company shall comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached its obligations under this Section (6) by virtue thereof; provided that the Company otherwise uses commercially reasonable efforts to permit Holders to exercise their rights and to fulfill its obligations in the time and in the manner specified in this Section (6) to the extent permitted by such securities laws or regulations.

(7) Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Securities are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and any multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. The transfer of Securities may be registered and Securities may be exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company shall not be required (A) to transfer or exchange any Securities subject to redemption during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of the electronic delivery or mailing of a notice of redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such electronic delivery or mailing or (B) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

(8) Defeasance. Subject to certain conditions as provided in the Indenture, the Company at any time may terminate some or all of its obligations under the Securities and the Indenture if the Company deposits with the Trustee money and/or U.S. Government Obligations for the payment of principal and interest on the Securities to their Stated Maturity.

(9) Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Security may be treated as its owner for all purposes, except that interest (other than Defaulted Interest) shall be paid to the Person that was the registered Holder on the relevant Record Date for such payment of interest.

(10) Amendments and Waivers. Subject to certain exceptions, (i) the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented with respect to this Series with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities; and (ii) any existing default with respect to the Securities may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities. Without the consent of any Securityholder of this Series, the Indenture or the Securities may be amended or supplemented in accordance with Section 5.04 of the First Supplemental Indenture to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency, to provide for assumption of Company obligations to Securityholders of this Series or to provide for uncertificated Securities in addition to or in place of certificated Securities, to provide for guarantees with respect to, or security for, the Securities, or to comply with the TIA or to add additional covenants or additional rights or benefits to the Securityholders of this Series, or to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder of this Series.

(11) Remedies. If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities may, by notice in writing to the Company (and the Trustee if given by the Holders), declare all the Securities to be due and payable immediately. Securityholders may not enforce the Indenture or the Securities except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee may require security or indemnity before it enforces the Indenture or the Securities. Subject to certain limitations, Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities may direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power with respect to the Securities. The Trustee may withhold from Securityholders of this Series notice of any Default or Event of Default (except a Default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines in good faith that withholding notice is in their interests. The Company must furnish an annual compliance certificate to the Trustee.

(12) Trustee Dealings with Company. Subject to the provisions of the TIA, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from, and perform services for the Company or its Affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates, as if it were not Trustee. The Trustee shall initially be Wilmington Trust, National Association.

(13) No Recourse Against Others. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Securities or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their creation. Each Securityholder by accepting a Security waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Securities.

(14) Authentication. This Security shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of an authorized signatory of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Securityholder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).
