ARTICLE I

APPLICATION OF SIXTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE
AND CREATION OF NOTES

Section 1.01          Application of this Sixth Supplemental Indenture.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Sixth Supplemental Indenture, pursuant to Section 13.01 of the Existing Indenture, the provisions of this Sixth Supplemental Indenture, including the covenants set forth herein, are expressly being included solely for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes.  The Notes constitute a series of notes as provided in Section 3.01 of the Existing Indenture.

Section 1.02          Designation and Amount of Notes.

The Notes shall be known and designated as the “2.375% Notes due 2022.”  The Notes shall be unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company.  The initial maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under this Sixth Supplemental Indenture shall not exceed $500,000,000, except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration or transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, Notes pursuant to Sections 3.04, 3.06, 3.07 and 4.06 of the Existing Indenture.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may from time to time, without giving notice to or seeking the consent of the Holders of the Notes, issue debt securities having the same terms (except for the issue date, and, in some cases, the public offering price and the first Interest Payment Date) and ranking equally and ratably with the Notes (“Additional Notes”).  The Notes and Additional Notes shall together constitute one series for purposes of the Existing Indenture and this Sixth Supplemental Indenture, including, without limitation, waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase.

Section 1.03          Terms; Denominations; Form of Security.

(a)           The Notes are issuable in fully registered form as Global Securities without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000, and shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto.  The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) shall act as Depositary for the Notes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Notes shall be issued as Individual Securities to each Person that the Depositary identifies as the beneficial owner of the Notes represented by the Global Securities upon surrender by the Depositary of the Global Security if:

(i)            the Depositary notifies us that it is no longer willing or able to act as a depositary for such Global Security or ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and the Company shall not have appointed a successor Depositary within 90 days of that notice or becoming aware that the Depositary is no longer so registered;

(ii)           an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Depositary requests the issuance of certificated notes; or

2

(iii)          the Company determines not to have the Notes represented by a Global Security.

(b)           The terms and provisions contained in the forms of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of this Sixth Supplemental Indenture and the Company, by its execution and delivery of this Sixth Supplemental Indenture, expressly agrees to such terms and provisions and to be bound thereto.  Any of the Notes may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification and such notations, legends and endorsements as the officers executing the same may approve (execution thereof to be conclusive evidence of such approval) and are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Indenture (and which do not affect the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee), or as may be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant thereto or with any rule or regulation of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Notes may be listed.

Section 1.04          Payment of Principal and Interest,

(a)           The Notes shall mature, and the principal of the Notes shall be due and payable in U.S. Dollars to the Holders thereof, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on August 10, 2022.

(b)           The Notes shall bear interest at 2.375% per annum from and including August 10, 2017, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or provided for, until the principal thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the same rate per annum.  Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.  Interest on the Notes shall be payable semi-annually in arrears in U.S. Dollars on February 10 and August 10 of each year, commencing on February 10, 2018 (the Interest Payment Dates with respect to the Notes).  Payments of interest shall be made to the Person in whose name a Note (or predecessor Note) is registered (which shall initially be the Depositary) at the close of business on February 1 or August 1, as the case may be, immediately preceding each Interest Payment Date (the Record Date with respect to the Notes).

(c)           For so long as the Notes are represented by one or more Global Securities, all payments of principal and interest shall be made by the Company through the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars to the Depositary or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the Global Securities representing such Notes.  In the event that definitive Notes shall have been issued, all payments of principal and interest shall be made by the Company through the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars to the accounts of the registered Holders thereof; provided, that the Company may elect to make such payments at the office of the Paying Agent in The City of Minneapolis; and provided further, that the Company may at its option pay interest by check to the registered address of each Holder of a definitive Note.

(d)           The Notes shall trade in the Depositary’s Same-Day Funds Settlement System until Stated Maturity (or until they are subject to acceleration pursuant to Article VII of the

3

Existing Indenture) and secondary market trading activity in the Notes may be required by the Depositary to settle in immediately available funds.

(e)           The Notes are subject to redemption by the Company in whole or in part in the manner described herein.

[Form of Reverse of Note]

ECOLAB INC.

2.375% NOTE DUE 2022

1.             This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company designated as its 2.375% Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”) issued under an Indenture dated as of January 12, 2015 (herein called, together with the Sixth Supplemental Indenture referred to below, the “Indenture”), between the Company and ▇▇▇▇▇ Fargo Bank National Association, as Trustee, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

2.             This Note is one of the notes of the series designated on the face hereof, limited to an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $500,000,000, which amount may be increased at the option of the Company if in the future it determines that it may wish to sell additional Notes of this series, as specified in the Sixth Supplemental Indenture between the Company and Trustee, dated as of August 10, 2017, establishing the form and certain terms of the Notes pursuant to the Indenture (the “Sixth Supplemental Indenture”). References herein to “this series” mean the series of Notes designated on the face hereof.

3.             The Company may redeem the Notes at any time in whole or from time to time in part, in each case at the Company’s option, prior to July 10, 2022 (the “Par Call Date”), at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of:

(i)            100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed on the Redemption Date; and

(ii)           as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and remaining scheduled payments of interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) from the Redemption Date to the Par Call Date, in each case discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 10 basis points;

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date.

In addition, the Company may redeem the Notes, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, at the Company’s option on or after the Par Call Date, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Record Date according to this Note and the Indenture.

Any notice to holders of Notes of a redemption pursuant to this paragraph 3 hereof will include the appropriate calculation of the Redemption Price, but does not need to include the Redemption Price itself.  The actual Redemption Price, calculated as described above, will be set forth in a Company Order delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date.

4.             Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless all of the Notes have been called for redemption pursuant to paragraph 3 of this Note, each Holder of Notes shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $1,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such Notes repurchased plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase.  “Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event, as such terms are defined in the Indenture.  The Change of Control Offer will be made in accordance with the terms specified in the Indenture.

5.             If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes (other than certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of 25% or more in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and all accrued but unpaid interest on all Notes to be due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.  The Indenture provides that such declaration and its consequences may, in certain events, be annulled by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes.  If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes relating to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and all accrued but unpaid interest on all Notes shall automatically become due and payable as provided in the Indenture.

6.             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 Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding.  The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes, 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 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 therefor or in lieu hereof; whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

7.             No reference herein to the Indenture and no provisions of this Note 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 on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

8.             As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Register of the Company, upon surrender of

this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency to be maintained by the Company for that purpose, or at such other office or agency as may be established by the Company for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture (initially the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee in Minneapolis, Minnesota), duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, and duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for like aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

9.             The Notes are issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000.  As provided in the Indenture, and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes in authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

10.          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.

11.          Prior to the due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer or exchange, the Company, 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 be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee, nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

12.          Interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30- day months.  Interest shall be payable to and excluding any Interest Payment Date.

13.          The Trustee, 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 the Trustee.

14.          This Note shall not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an Authenticating Agent.

15.          Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder 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), CUT (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

16.          Each Holder of this Note covenants and agrees by such Holder’s acceptance thereof to comply with and be bound by the foregoing provisions.

17.          All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
