HARLEY-DAVIDSON, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. Basis of Presentation and Use of Estimates
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation – The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Harley-Davidson, Inc. and its subsidiaries and certain variable interest entities (VIEs) related to secured financing as the Company is the primary beneficiary. All intercompany accounts and material intercompany transactions have been eliminated. The Company has a controlling equity interest in LiveWire Group, Inc. As the controlling shareholder, the Company consolidates LiveWire Group, Inc. results with additional adjustments to recognize non-controlling shareholder interests.
The Company operates in three reportable segments: Harley-Davidson Motor Company (HDMC), LiveWire and Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS). The Company changed its segments in the period ended December 31, 2022. The change has been retrospectively reflected in the periods presented below.
Substantially all of the Company’s international subsidiaries use their respective local currency as their functional currency. Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries have been translated at period-end exchange rates, and revenues and expenses have been translated using average exchange rates for the period. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in a currency that is different from an entity's functional currency are remeasured from the transactional currency to the entity's functional currency on a monthly basis. The aggregate transaction gain resulting from foreign currency remeasurements was $3.3 million and $1.6 million for the three month periods ended March 31, 2023 and March 27, 2022, respectively.
In the opinion of the Company's management, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the Consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2023 and March 27, 2022, the Consolidated statements of operations for the three month periods then ended, the Consolidated statements of comprehensive income for the three month periods then ended, the Consolidated statements of cash flows for the three month periods then ended, and the Consolidated statements of shareholders' equity for the three month periods ended March 31, 2023 and March 27, 2022.
Certain information and disclosures normally included in complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial reporting. The consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Use of Estimates – The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company's management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Fair Value Measurements – The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using a three-tier hierarchy.
Level 1 inputs include quoted prices for identical instruments and are the most observable.
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and observable inputs such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and yield curves. The Company uses the market approach to derive the fair value for its Level 2 fair value measurements. Foreign currency contracts, commodity contracts, and cross-currency swaps are valued using quoted forward rates and prices; interest rate caps are valued using quoted interest rates and yield curves.
Level 3 inputs are not observable in the market and include the Company's judgments about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
2. New Accounting Standards
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted
In March 2022, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2022-02, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures (ASU 2022-02). ASU 2022-02 addresses areas identified by the FASB as part of its post-implementation review of its previously issued credit losses standard (ASU 2016-13) that introduced the current expected credit losses (CECL) model. ASU 2022-02
9

eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted the CECL model and enhances disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancings and restructurings made with borrowers experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, ASU 2022-02 requires a public business entity to disclose current-period gross write-offs for financing receivables and net investment in leases by year of origination in the vintage disclosures. The Company adopted ASU 2022-02 on January 1, 2023. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
3. Revenue
The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of a good or service to a customer. Revenue is measured based on the consideration that the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for the goods or services transferred. Taxes that are collected from a customer concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue.

7. Finance Receivables
Finance receivables include both retail and wholesale finance receivables, including amounts held by consolidated VIEs. Finance receivables are recorded in the financial statements at amortized cost net of an allowance for credit losses.
The Company provides retail financial services to customers of its dealers in the U.S. and Canada. The origination of retail loans is a separate and distinct transaction between the Company and the retail customer, unrelated to the Company’s sale of product to its dealers. Retail finance receivables consist of secured promissory notes and secured installment sales contracts and are primarily related to dealer sales of motorcycles to retail customers. The Company holds either titles or liens on titles to vehicles financed by promissory notes and installment sales contracts.
12

The Company offers wholesale financing to its dealers in the U.S. and Canada. Wholesale finance receivables are related primarily to the Company's sale of motorcycles and related parts and accessories to dealers. Wholesale loans to dealers are generally secured by financed inventory or property.

$7,573,723 $7,138,438 $6,821,553 
The Company’s finance receivables are reported at amortized cost, net of the allowance for credit losses. Amortized cost includes the principal outstanding, accrued interest, and deferred loan fees and costs. The Company's allowance for credit losses reflects expected lifetime credit losses on its finance receivables. Based on differences in the nature of the finance receivables and the underlying methodology for calculating the allowance for credit losses, the Company segments its finance receivables into the retail and wholesale portfolios. The Company further disaggregates each portfolio by credit quality indicators. As the credit risk varies between the retail and wholesale portfolios, the Company utilizes different credit quality indicators for each portfolio.
The retail portfolio primarily consists of a large number of small balance, homogeneous finance receivables. The Company performs a collective evaluation of the adequacy of the retail allowance for credit losses. The Company utilizes a vintage-based loss forecast methodology that includes decompositions for probability of default, exposure at default, attrition rate, and recovery balance rate. Reasonable and supportable economic forecasts for a two-year period are incorporated into the methodology to reflect the estimated impact of changes in future economic conditions, such as unemployment rates, household obligations or other relevant factors, over the two-year reasonable and supportable period. For periods beyond the Company’s reasonable and supportable forecasts, the Company reverts to its average historical loss experience using a mean-reversion process over a three-year period. Adjustments to historical loss information are made for differences in current loan-specific risk characteristics such as differences in underwriting standards, portfolio mix, or term as well as other relevant factors.
The wholesale portfolio is primarily composed of large balance, non-homogeneous loans. The Company’s evaluation for the wholesale allowance for credit losses is first based on a loan-by-loan review to determine whether the loans share similar risk characteristics. The Company individually evaluates loans that do not share risk characteristics. Loans identified as those for which foreclosure is probable are classified as Non-Performing, and a specific allowance for credit losses is established when appropriate. The specific allowance is determined based on the amortized cost of the related finance receivable and the estimated fair value of the collateral, less selling costs and the cash that the Company expects to receive. Finance receivables in the wholesale portfolio not individually assessed are aggregated, based on similar risk characteristics, according to the Company’s internal risk rating system and measured collectively. The related allowance for credit losses is based on factors such as the specific borrower’s financial performance and ability to repay, the Company’s past credit loss experience, reasonable and supportable economic forecasts, and the value of the underlying collateral and expected recoveries.
The Company considers various third-party economic forecast scenarios as part of estimating the allowance for expected credit losses and applies a probability-weighting to those economic forecast scenarios. Each quarter, the Company’s outlook on economic conditions impacts the Company's retail and wholesale estimates for expected credit losses. During the first quarter of 2023, the overall macro-economic conditions remained uncertain as near-term recession concerns did not abate, elevated levels of inflation continued to challenge the U.S. and global economies, and muted consumer confidence persisted, among other factors. As such, at the end the first quarter of 2023, the Company’s outlook on economic conditions and its probability weighting of its economic forecast scenarios were weighted towards a near-term recession.
Additionally, the historical experience incorporated into the portfolio-specific models does not fully reflect the Company's comprehensive expectations regarding the future. As such, the Company incorporated qualitative factors to establish an appropriate allowance for credit losses balance. These factors include motorcycle recovery value considerations, delinquency adjustments, specific problem loan trends, and changes in other portfolio-specific loan characteristics.
Due to the use of projections and assumptions in estimating the losses, the amount of losses actually incurred by the Company in either portfolio could differ from the amounts estimated. Further, the Company’s allowance for credit losses incorporates known conditions at the balance sheet date and the Company’s expectations surrounding the economic
13

forecasts. The Company will continue to monitor future economic trends and conditions. Expectations surrounding the Company's economic forecasts may change in future periods as additional information becomes available.

The Company manages retail credit risk through its credit approval process and ongoing collection efforts. The Company uses FICO scores, a standard credit rating measurement, to differentiate the expected default rates of retail credit applicants, enabling the Company to better evaluate credit applicants for approval and to tailor pricing according to this assessment. For the Company’s U.S. and Canadian retail finance receivables, the Company determines the credit quality indicator for each loan at origination and does not update the credit quality indicator subsequent to the loan origination date.
As loan performance by credit quality indicator differs between the U.S. and Canadian retail loans, the Company’s credit quality indicators vary for the two portfolios. For U.S. retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 740 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 640 and 740 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 640 are generally considered sub-prime. For Canadian retail finance receivables, those with a FICO score of 700 or above at origination are generally considered super prime, loans with a FICO score between 620 and 700 are generally categorized as prime, and loans with FICO score below 620 are generally considered sub-prime.

The Company's credit risk on the wholesale portfolio is different from that of the retail portfolio. Whereas the retail portfolio represents a relatively homogeneous pool of retail finance receivables that exhibit more consistent loss patterns, the wholesale portfolio exposures are less consistent. The Company utilizes an internal credit risk rating system to manage credit risk exposure consistently across wholesale borrowers and individually evaluates credit risk factors for each borrower. The Company uses the following internal credit quality indicators, based on an internal risk rating system, listed from highest level of risk to lowest level of risk for the wholesale portfolio: Doubtful, Substandard, Special Mention, Medium Risk and Low Risk. Based upon the Company’s review, the dealers classified in the Doubtful category are the dealers with the greatest likelihood of being charged-off, while the dealers classified as Low Risk are least likely to be charged-off. Additionally, the Company classifies dealers identified as those in which foreclosure is probable as Non-Performing. The internal rating system considers factors such as the specific borrower's ability to repay and the estimated value of any collateral. Dealer risk rating classifications are reviewed and updated by the Company on a quarterly basis.

Retail finance receivables are contractually delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the specified due date. Retail finance receivables at amortized cost, excluding accrued interest, are generally charged-off when the receivable is 120 days or more delinquent, the related asset is repossessed, or the receivable is otherwise deemed uncollectible. The Company reverses accrued interest related to charged-off accounts against Financial Services interest income when the account is charged-off. The Company reversed $7.2 million and $4.9 million of accrued interest against Financial Services interest income during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 27, 2022, respectively. All retail finance receivables accrue interest until either collected or charged-off. Due to the timely write-off of accrued interest, the Company made the election provided under Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 326, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses to exclude accrued interest from its allowance for credit losses. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2023, December 31, 2022 and March 27, 2022, all retail finance receivables were accounted for as interest-earning receivables.
Wholesale finance receivables are delinquent if the minimum payment is not received by the contractual due date. Wholesale finance receivables are written down once the Company determines that the specific borrower does not have the ability to repay the loan in full. Interest continues to accrue on past due finance receivables until the date the Company determines that foreclosure is probable, and the finance receivable is placed on non-accrual status. The Company will resume accruing interest on these accounts when payments are current according to the terms of the loans and future payments are reasonably assured. While on non-accrual status, all cash received is applied to principal or interest as appropriate. Once an account is charged-off, the Company will reverse the associated accrued interest against interest income. As the Company follows a non-accrual policy for interest, the allowance for credit losses excludes accrued interest for the wholesale portfolio.
17

There were no charged-off accounts during the three months ended March 31, 2023 and March 27, 2022. As such, the Company did not reverse any wholesale accrued interest in those periods. There were no dealers on non-accrual status at March 31, 2023, December 31, 2022, and March 27, 2022.

Generally, it is the Company’s policy not to change the terms and conditions of finance receivables. However, to minimize economic loss, the Company may modify certain finance receivables in troubled loan modifications. Total finance receivables in troubled loan modifications were not significant as of March 31, 2023, December 31, 2022 and March 27, 2022. In accordance with its policies, in certain situations, the Company may offer short-term adjustments to customer payment due dates without affecting the associated interest rate or loan term.
8. Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities
The Company is exposed to risks from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. To reduce its exposure to such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All derivative transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes.
The Company sells products in foreign currencies and utilizes foreign currency exchange contracts to mitigate the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations related to the Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Singapore dollar, Thai baht, and Pound sterling. The Company's foreign currency exchange contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.
The Company utilizes commodity contracts to mitigate the effects of commodity price fluctuations related to metals and fuel consumed in its motorcycle operations. The Company's commodity contracts generally have maturities of less than one year.
The Company periodically utilizes treasury rate and swap rate lock contracts to fix the interest rate on a portion of the principal related to an anticipated issuance of long-term debt and cross-currency swaps to mitigate the effect of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on its foreign currency-denominated debt. The Company also utilizes interest rate caps to facilitate certain asset-backed securitization transactions.
All derivative financial instruments are recognized on the Consolidated balance sheets at fair value. In accordance with ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging (ASC Topic 815), the accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative financial instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship.
18

Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedges are initially recorded in Other comprehensive (loss) income (OCI) and subsequently reclassified into income when the hedged item affects income. The Company assesses, both at the inception of each hedge and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivative financial instruments that are designated as cash flow hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged items. No component of a designated hedging derivative financial instrument’s gain or loss is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Derivative financial instruments not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to foreign currency, commodity risks, and interest rate risks. Changes in the fair value of derivative financial instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recorded directly in income. Cash flow activity associated with the Company's derivative financial instruments is recorded in Cash flows from operating activities on the Consolidated statement of cash flow.

The Company is exposed to credit loss risk in the event of non-performance by counterparties to its derivative financial instruments. Although no assurances can be given, the Company does not expect any of the counterparties to its derivative financial instruments to fail to meet their obligations. To manage credit loss risk, the Company evaluates counterparties based on credit ratings and, on a quarterly basis, evaluates each hedge’s net position relative to the counterparty’s ability to cover their position.

10. Asset-Backed Financing
The Company participates in asset-backed financing both through asset-backed securitization transactions and through asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. In the Company's asset-backed financing programs, the Company transfers retail motorcycle finance receivables to special purpose entities (SPEs), which are considered VIEs under U.S. GAAP. Each SPE then converts those assets into cash, through the issuance of debt. The Company retains servicing rights for all of the retail motorcycle finance receivables transferred to SPEs as part of an asset-backed financing. The accounting treatment for asset-backed financings depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE.
In transactions where the Company has power over the significant activities of the VIE and has an obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits from the VIE that are potentially significant to the VIE, the Company is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and consolidates the VIE within its consolidated financial statements. On a consolidated basis, the asset-backed financing is treated as a secured borrowing in this type of transaction and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
In transactions where the Company is not the primary beneficiary of the VIE, the Company must determine whether it can achieve a sale for accounting purposes under ASC Topic 860, Transfers and Servicing. To achieve a sale for accounting purposes, the assets being transferred must be legally isolated, not be constrained by restrictions from further transfer, and be deemed to be beyond the Company’s control. If the Company does not meet all of these criteria for sale accounting, then the transaction is accounted for as a secured borrowing and is referred to as an on-balance sheet asset-backed financing.
If the Company meets all three of the sale criteria above, the transaction is recorded as a sale for accounting purposes and is referred to as an off-balance sheet asset-backed financing. Upon sale, the retail motorcycle finance receivables are removed from the Company’s Consolidated balance sheets and a gain or loss is recognized for the difference between the cash proceeds received, the assets derecognized, and the liabilities recognized as part of the transaction. The gain or loss on sale is included in Financial Services revenue on the Consolidated statements of operations.
The Company is not required, and does not currently intend, to provide any additional financial support to the on- or off-balance sheet VIEs associated with these transactions. Investors and creditors in these transactions only have recourse to the assets held by the VIEs.

On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – The Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to SPEs which in turn issue secured notes to investors, with various maturities and interest rates, secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. Each on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization SPE is a separate legal entity, and the U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitizations are only available for payment of the secured debt and other obligations arising from the asset-backed securitization transactions and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors until the associated secured debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the SPEs are used only to support the securitizations. There are no amortization schedules for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes currently have various contractual maturities ranging from 2024 to 2030.
23

The Company is the primary beneficiary of its on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization VIEs because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIEs in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE.
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company transferred $628.5 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $550.0 million, or $547.7 million net of discount and issuance costs, of secured notes through an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transaction. There were no on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during the first quarter of 2022.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facility VIE – The Company has a $1.50 billion revolving facility agreement (the U.S. Conduit Facility) with third-party banks and their asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Under the revolving facility agreement, the Company may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party banks and their asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. In November 2022, the Company renewed the U.S. Conduit Facility. As a result of the renewal, the agreement no longer allows for uncommitted additional borrowings, at the lender's discretion, of up to $300.0 million in addition to the $1.50 billion aggregate commitment. Prior to the November 2022 renewal, the Company drew against the $300.0 million of uncommitted additional borrowings that were available prior to the renewal and, at March 31, 2023, $72.8 million of the amount drawn remained outstanding. Availability under the U.S. Conduit Facility is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral.
Under the U.S. Conduit Facility, the assets of the SPE are restricted as collateral for the payment of the debt or other obligations arising in the transaction and are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company’s creditors. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. Subsequent to the November 2022 renewal, the interest rate on all outstanding debt and future borrowings, if not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, is based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), with provisions for a transition to other benchmark rates in the future, if necessary. Prior to the renewal, if not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest were based on LIBOR or SOFR, as appropriate, with provisions for a transition to other benchmark rates. In addition to interest, a program fee is assessed based on the outstanding debt principal balance. The U.S. Conduit Facility also provides for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facility, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of March 31, 2023, the U.S. Conduit Facility has an expiration date of November 17, 2023.
The Company is the primary beneficiary of its U.S. Conduit Facility VIE because it retains servicing rights and a residual interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. As the servicer, the Company is the variable interest holder with the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. As a residual interest holder, the Company has the obligation to absorb losses and the right to receive benefits which could potentially be significant to the VIE.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the U.S. Conduit Facility during the first quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company transferred $47.1 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $41.3 million of debt under the U.S. Conduit Facility.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – The Company has a revolving facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$125.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the associated debt. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$125.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 4 years.
24

Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement between the Company and the lenders, as of March 31, 2023, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 30, 2023.
The Company is not the primary beneficiary of the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE; therefore, the Company does not consolidate the VIE. However, the Company treats the conduit facility as a secured borrowing as it maintains effective control over the assets transferred to the VIE and, therefore, does not meet the requirements for sale accounting.
As the Company participates in and does not consolidate the Canadian bank-sponsored, multi-seller conduit VIE, the maximum exposure to loss associated with this VIE, which would only be incurred in the unlikely event that all the finance receivables and underlying collateral have no residual value, was $10.7 million at March 31, 2023. The maximum exposure is not an indication of the Company's expected loss exposure.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the Canadian Conduit Facility during the first quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company transferred $25.3 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $21.2 million.

Finance Receivables, net – The carrying value of retail and wholesale finance receivables is amortized cost less an allowance for credit losses. The fair value of retail finance receivables is generally calculated by discounting future cash flows using an estimated discount rate that reflects current credit, interest rate and prepayment risks associated with similar types of instruments. Fair value is determined based on Level 3 inputs. The amortized cost basis of wholesale finance receivables approximates fair value because they are generally either short-term or have interest rates that adjust with changes in market interest rates.
Deposits, net – The carrying value of deposits is amortized cost, net of fees. The fair value of deposits is estimated based upon rates currently available for deposits with similar terms and maturities. Fair value is calculated using Level 3 inputs.
Debt – The carrying value of debt is generally cost, net of unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs. The fair value of unsecured commercial paper is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value due to its short maturity. The fair value of debt provided under the U.S. Conduit Facility and the Canadian Conduit Facility is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged under the facilities are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change. The fair values of the medium-term notes and senior notes are estimated based upon rates currently available for debt with similar terms and remaining maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the fixed-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is estimated based on pricing currently available for transactions with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 inputs). The fair value of the floating-rate debt related to on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions is calculated using Level 2 inputs and approximates carrying value since the interest rates charged are tied directly to market rates and fluctuate as market rates change.
12. Product Warranty and Recall Campaigns
The Company currently provides a standard two-year limited warranty on all new motorcycles sold worldwide, except in certain markets, where the Company currently provides a standard three-year limited warranty. The Company also provides a five-year limited warranty on the battery for electric motorcycles. In addition, the Company provides a one-year warranty for parts and accessories. The warranty coverage for the retail customer generally begins when the product is sold to a retail customer. The Company accrues for future warranty claims at the time of shipment using an estimated cost based primarily on historical Company claim information.
27

Additionally, the Company has from time to time initiated certain voluntary recall campaigns. The Company records estimated recall costs when the liability is both probable and estimable. This generally occurs when the Company's management approves and commits to a recall. The warranty and recall liability is included in Accrued liabilities and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated balance sheets.

13. Employee Benefit Plans
The Company has a qualified pension plan and postretirement healthcare benefit plans. The plans cover certain eligible employees and retirees of the HDMC segment. The Company also has unfunded supplemental employee retirement plan agreements (SERPA) with certain employees. Service cost is allocated among Selling, administrative and engineering expense, Motorcycles and related products cost of goods sold and Inventories, net.

14. Commitments and Contingencies
Litigation and Other Claims – The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to product, commercial, employee, environmental and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. The Company accrues for matters when losses are both probable and estimable. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter. The Company also maintains insurance coverage for product liability exposures. The Company believes that its accruals and insurance coverage are adequate and there are no material exposures to loss in excess of amounts accrued and insured for losses related to these matters.
Supply Matter – During the second quarter of 2022, the Company received information from a third-party sub-supplier concerning a potential regulatory compliance matter relating to the sub-supplier’s brake hose assemblies. As a result, out of an abundance of caution, the Company suspended all vehicle assembly and shipments (excluding LiveWire models, which did not utilize the brake hose assemblies at issue) for approximately two weeks during the second quarter of 2022. Since then, the Company has been working through the regulatory compliance matter with the sub-supplier, the Company’s relevant Tier-1 suppliers, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which is the agency responsible for brake hose assembly compliance in the United States.

In connection with this matter, in July 2022, the sub-supplier notified NHTSA of a population of brake hose assemblies that were non-compliant with select NHTSA laboratory test standards. Based on that filing, in August 2022, the Company notified NHTSA of the corresponding population of Harley-Davidson motorcycles containing those brake hose assemblies. In October 2022, the sub-supplier amended its original notification, expanding its population of non-compliant brake hose assemblies to include units produced by the sub-supplier for use in Harley-Davidson motorcycles beginning as early as model year 2008. In December 2022, the Company amended its August notification, expanding the population to also include Harley-Davidson motorcycles that contained the sub-supplier’s newly identified brake hose assemblies. On March 30, 2023, the sub-supplier again amended its notification to NHTSA, identifying additional compliance issues with its brake hose assemblies. The Company is currently evaluating the sub-supplier’s latest amended notification and plans to again amend its notification to NHTSA to align with the sub-supplier’s amended notification.

As permitted by federal law, both the sub-supplier and the Company have leveraged NHTSA’s standard process to petition the agency for a determination that these compliance issues are inconsequential to motor vehicle safety (an “Inconsequentiality Determination”). If NHTSA makes the Inconsequentiality Determination requested, the Company will be exempt from conducting a field action or a recall of its motorcycles related to this matter.

In its inconsequentiality petition, the Company has presented (and plans to further present) NHTSA with: (1) extensive independent, third-party and internal testing demonstrating that the brake hose assemblies at issue are robust to extreme conditions - which far exceed maximum expected motorcycle lifetime demands - with no impact to brake performance; and (2) real-world field safety data showing no documented crashes or injuries attributable to the identified compliance issues. The Company believes its petition is closely comparable to inconsequentiality petitions which have resulted in successful Inconsequentiality Determinations in the past. The Company is also confident that its position that the compliance issues are inconsequential to motor vehicle safety is strong and, therefore, no field action or recall will be necessary.

Based on its expectation that NHTSA will make an Inconsequentiality Determination, the Company does not expect that this matter will result in material costs in the future and no such costs have been accrued to date. However, it is possible that a field action or recall could be required that could cause the Company to incur material costs. There are several variables and uncertainties associated with any potential field action or recall that are not yet known including, but not limited to, the population of brake hose assemblies and motorcycles, the specific field action or recall required, the complexity of the required repair, and the number of motorcycle owners that would participate. Based on the Company’s information and assumptions, it estimates the cost of a potential field action or recall, if it were to occur, could range from approximately $200 million to $400 million. While the Company anticipates this estimated range to change based on information most recently provided by the sub-supplier, the Company cannot make a reasonable updated estimate at this time. The Company maintains its expectation that NHTSA will make an Inconsequentiality Determination and that this matter will not result in any material field action or recall costs. If material field action or recall costs were to result, the Company would seek full recovery of those amounts.

Overview(1)
Net income attributable to Harley-Davidson, Inc. was $304.1 million, or $2.04 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2023 compared to $222.5 million, or $1.45 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022.
In the first quarter of 2023, HDMC segment operating income was $335.7 million, up $116.8 million from the first quarter of 2022. The increase in operating income from the HDMC segment for the first quarter of 2023 was driven primarily by higher motorcycle shipments, price increases and favorable product mix partially offset by the impact of unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates and increased operating expenses compared to the same quarter last year. Operating loss from the LiveWire segment in the first quarter of 2023 was $24.5 million compared to an operating loss of $16.1 million in the prior year quarter due primarily to lower electric motorcycle and electric balance bike shipments and increased operating expenses. Operating income from the HDFS segment in the first quarter of 2023 was $58.4 million, down $27.9 million compared to the prior year quarter due primarily to higher interest expense and an increase in the provision for credit losses.
Retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles in the first quarter of 2023 were down 12.4% compared to the first quarter of 2022, including a decline of 17.3% and 3.3% in U.S. and international markets, respectively. Refer to the Harley-Davidson Motorcycles Retail Sales and Registration Data section for further discussion of retail sales results.

Key Factors Impacting the Company(1)
Supply Chain Challenges – Starting in 2020, the Company began to experience disruption and increasing costs related to global supply chain challenges, including global semiconductor chip shortages. During the second half of 2022, these cost increases began to moderate primarily through the normalization of logistics inflation and to a lesser extent raw materials inflation which slowed as metal markets improved. In addition, during the second half of 2022, the Company began to reduce its reliance on expedited shipping. During the first quarter of 2023, the Company continued to experience a moderate level of cost inflation, primarily related to labor and warehousing costs, partially offset by deflation related to freight and raw materials. The Company also continued to reduce its use of expedited modes of freight during the first quarter of 2023. The Company continues to expect overall supply-chain cost inflation to moderate for the 2023 full year, as compared to 2022.
Supply Matter – During the second quarter of 2022, the Company received information from a third-party sub-supplier concerning a potential regulatory compliance matter relating to the sub-supplier’s brake hose assemblies. As a result, out of an abundance of caution, the Company suspended all vehicle assembly and shipments (excluding LiveWire models, which did not utilize the brake hose assemblies at issue) for approximately two weeks during the second quarter of 2022. Since then, the Company has been working through the regulatory compliance matter with the sub-supplier, the Company’s relevant Tier-1 suppliers, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), which is the agency responsible for brake hose assembly compliance in the United States.

In connection with this matter, in July 2022, the sub-supplier notified NHTSA of a population of brake hose assemblies that were non-compliant with select NHTSA laboratory test standards. Based on that filing, in August 2022, the Company notified NHTSA of the corresponding population of Harley-Davidson motorcycles containing those brake hose assemblies. In October 2022, the sub-supplier amended its original notification, expanding its population of non-compliant brake hose assemblies to include units produced by the sub-supplier for use in Harley-Davidson motorcycles beginning as early as model year 2008. In December 2022, the Company amended its August notification, expanding the population to also include Harley-Davidson motorcycles that contained the sub-supplier’s newly identified brake hose assemblies. On March 30, 2023, the sub-supplier again amended its notification to NHTSA, identifying additional compliance issues with its brake hose assemblies. The Company is currently evaluating the sub-supplier’s latest amended notification and plans to again amend its notification to NHTSA to align with the sub-supplier’s amended notification.

As permitted by federal law, both the sub-supplier and the Company have leveraged NHTSA’s standard process to petition the agency for a determination that these compliance issues are inconsequential to motor vehicle safety (an “Inconsequentiality Determination”). If NHTSA makes the Inconsequentiality Determination requested, the Company will be exempt from conducting a field action or a recall of its motorcycles related to this matter.

In its inconsequentiality petition, the Company has presented (and plans to further present) NHTSA with: (1) extensive independent, third-party and internal testing demonstrating that the brake hose assemblies at issue are robust to extreme conditions - which far exceed maximum expected motorcycle lifetime demands - with no impact to brake performance; and (2) real-world field safety data showing no documented crashes or injuries attributable to the identified compliance issues. The Company believes its petition is closely comparable to inconsequentiality petitions which have resulted in successful Inconsequentiality Determinations in the past. The Company is also confident that its position that the compliance issues are inconsequential to motor vehicle safety is strong and, therefore, no field action or recall will be necessary.

Based on its expectation that NHTSA will make an Inconsequentiality Determination, the Company does not expect that this matter will result in material costs in the future and no such costs have been accrued to date. However, it is possible that a field action or recall could be required that could cause the Company to incur material costs. There are several variables and uncertainties associated with any potential field action or recall that are not yet known including, but not limited to, the population of brake hose assemblies and motorcycles, the specific field action or recall required, the complexity of the required repair, and the number of motorcycle owners that would participate. Based on the Company’s information and assumptions, it estimates the cost of a potential field action or recall, if it were to occur, could range from approximately $200 million to $400 million. While the Company anticipates this estimated range to change based on information most recently provided by the sub-supplier, the Company cannot make a reasonable updated estimate at this time. The Company maintains its expectation that NHTSA will make an Inconsequentiality Determination and that this matter will not result in any material field action or recall costs. If material field action or recall costs were to result, the Company would seek full recovery of those amounts.

Interest Rates - Interest rates increased significantly during 2022 and continued to increase in 2023 as central banks attempted to reduce inflation. Rising interest rates may adversely impact HDFS's interest income margin to the extent HDFS is unable to offset a higher cost of funds with increased interest rates on products it offers to its customers. Additionally, higher interest rates may make the Company’s motorcycles less affordable, adversely impact product mix or impact customers’ ability to obtain financing to purchase the Company’s motorcycles.
Suspension of Additional European Union Tariffs – In April 2021, the Company received notification from the Economic Ministry of Belgium that, following a request from the European Union (EU), the Company would be subject to revocation of the Binding Origin Information (BOI) decisions that allowed it to supply its EU markets with certain motorcycles produced at its Thailand manufacturing facility at tariff rates of 6%. As a result of the revocation, all non-electric motorcycles that Harley-Davidson imported into the EU, regardless of origin, were subject to a total tariff rate of 31% from April 19, 2021 through the end of 2021. On October 30, 2021, the U.S. and EU announced an agreement related to the Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum that were implemented in 2018 by the U.S. and the subsequent rebalancing tariff measures taken by the EU. This agreement suspended the additional tariffs initially imposed by the EU on the Company's motorcycles, reducing the total EU tariff rate on the Company’s motorcycles from 31% to 6%, effective January 1, 2022. The lower 6% tariff rate applies to all motorcycles imported by the Company into the EU, regardless of origin. Under the agreement between the U.S. and the EU, the lower tariff rate will remain in effect until December 31, 2023. The U.S. and EU will monitor and review the operation of the agreement, seeking to conclude the negotiations on steel and aluminum tariffs by December 31, 2023. These negotiations are ongoing, and there are no assurances the U.S. and EU will reach a resolution that concludes the trade conflict on steel and aluminum tariffs beyond December 31, 2023.
To date, the Company continues to pursue its appeals of the revocation of the BOI decisions and the denial of its application for temporary extended reliance on the 6% tariff rate (for motorcycles produced in Thailand and ordered prior to April 19, 2021), although there is no assurance that these appeals will continue or be successful.
COVID-19 Pandemic – The Company continues to monitor the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and government actions and measures taken to prevent its spread. The full impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on future results depends on future developments, such as the ultimate duration and scope of the pandemic including associated variants, the success of vaccination programs, the consequences of vaccine requirements, and its impact on the Company's employees, customers, dealers, distributors, and suppliers. Future impacts and disruptions could have an adverse effect on production, supply chains, distribution, and demand for the Company's products.
Guidance(1)
On April 27, 2023, the Company shared the following guidance for 2023:
The Company expects HDMC revenue growth of between 4% and 7% in 2023 compared to 2022. The Company expects revenue to be positively impacted by modest unit growth, beneficial product mix as the Company focuses on its most profitable products, and pricing actions intended to offset a moderated inflationary outlook. Furthermore, the Company expects revenue growth from parts and accessories and apparel and licensing as it executes The Hardwire strategy.
The Company expects HDMC operating margin as a percent of revenue to be in the range of 14.1% to 14.6% in 2023. The Company believes the anticipated positive impact of pricing and supply chain productivity will offset cost inflation and unfavorability related to foreign currency exchange rates.
Considering the impact of the suspension of production and shipments for approximately two weeks during the second quarter of 2022, the Company expects the year-over-year HDMC revenue growth rate in the first half of 2023 to be in the high teens. In addition, the Company expects an HDMC operating income margin percent in the high teens for the first half of 2023. In the second half of 2023, the Company expects HDMC revenue and operating income to be down compared to 2022 based on more normalized production and seasonality as compared to 2022. For HDFS, the Company expects the forecasted year-over-year operating income decline to moderate in the second half of the year compared to the first half given the historical seasonality of credit losses and the impact of borrowing cost increases experienced by HDFS in the second half of 2022.
The Company expects to sell 750 to 2,000 LiveWire motorcycle units and a LiveWire operating loss of $115 million to $125 million in 2023. The LiveWire expectations assume a launch of LiveWire's Del Mar electric motorcycle in the third quarter of 2023, consistent with the Company's current planned launch timeline.
The Company expects HDFS operating income to decline 20% to 25% in 2023 compared to 2022. This decline is largely a result of the higher interest rate environment causing the Company's borrowing costs to increase combined with an increase in credit losses. The Company recognizes there is risk that the current economic outlook and its expectation for credit losses

could deteriorate during the remainder of the year. HDFS has several actions underway to mitigate the impact of losses, including increased investment behind collections and stronger repossession efforts.
The Company has a cost productivity target to eliminate $400 million of incremental costs by 2025. The Company reduced costs by approximately $50 million during 2022 and expects to reduce an additional $140 million in 2023 through production efficiency and reduced waste which is reflected in the Company guidance above.
The Company expects capital investments in 2023 of between $225 and $250 million. The Company plans to continue to invest behind product development and capability enhancement in support of The Hardwire strategy.
The Company's capital allocation priorities are to fund growth through The Hardwire initiatives, to pay dividends, and to execute discretionary share repurchases.

(a)Data source for retail sales figures shown above is new sales warranty and registration information provided by dealers and compiled by the Company. The Company must rely on information that its dealers supply concerning new retail sales, and the Company does not regularly verify the information that its dealers supply. This information is subject to revision.
Worldwide retail sales of new Harley-Davidson motorcycles were down 12.4% during the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year, driven primarily by a decline in North America. The Company believes retail sales in North America were adversely impacted during the first quarter of 2023 by the timing of new model year shipments, which includes rollouts of the Company's anniversary models on a staggered basis and the introduction of other new products subsequent to the first quarter, as well as shifting macro-economic conditions.
Worldwide average retail inventory of new motorcycles was up 70% and 24% during the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022 and the fourth quarter of 2022, respectively. Improved production in the first quarter of this year and in the second half of 2022 has allowed for improved product availability in the dealer network ahead of the riding season. Average retail inventory is calculated based on a four-point average including inventory on the first day of the quarter and each subsequent month-end within the quarter.
In the U.S., new motorcycle transaction prices on average as a percent of Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Prices were within the Company's targeted range of plus or minus 2% during the first quarter of 2023. As retail inventory levels of new motorcycles improved, the Company observed used motorcycle prices relative to new were lower on average in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022. The Company believes used prices remain healthy relative to historical levels.

Factors affecting the comparability of net revenue, cost of goods sold and gross profit from the first quarter of 2022 to the first quarter of 2023 were as follows:
The increase in volume was primarily due to higher motorcycle shipments and higher apparel sales.
Revenue benefited from higher prices on new model year 2023 motorcycles.
Revenue and gross profit were negatively impacted by weaker foreign currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar, partially offset by favorable net foreign currency gains associated with hedging recorded in cost of goods sold.
Changes in the shipment mix had a favorable impact on gross profit.
Raw material costs benefited from continued moderation in the rate of inflation related primarily to metals.
Manufacturing and other costs increased due to supply chain cost inflation and other startup costs experienced in the quarter, partially offset by productivity savings including reduced reliance on expedited freight.
Operating expenses were higher in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year related to Hardwire initiatives and employee-related costs.

During the first quarter of 2023, revenue decreased by $2.6 million, or 25.4%, compared to the first quarter of 2022. The decrease was primarily due to lower revenue driven by lower volumes on electric motorcycles and electric balance bikes. Cost of sales decreased by $3.9 million, or 37.2%, during the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022 on lower volumes.
During the first quarter of 2023, selling, administrative and engineering expense increased $9.7 million, or 60.2%, compared to the first quarter of 2022 driven by higher product development costs as well as higher costs associated with standing up the new organization.

Operating income$58,420 $86,357 $(27,937)(32.4)%
Interest income was higher for the first three months of 2023 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to higher average outstanding finance receivables at a higher average yield. Other income increased largely driven by higher investment income and insurance revenue. Interest expense increased due to higher average outstanding debt at a higher average interest rate.

The provision for credit losses increased $23.5 million compared to the first quarter of 2022, primarily driven by higher retail delinquencies and credit losses, which returned to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels at the end of 2022. The Company experienced higher retail delinquencies and credit losses as consumers faced increased pressure from higher debt levels and the impacts of inflation, both more generally as well as through higher payments on larger retail motorcycle loans. Further, the Company continues to experience challenges with motorcycle repossessions as the repossession industry contracted
46

during the COVID-19 pandemic and has yet to expand to meet current demand. This has resulted in more motorcycle loans with larger loan balances that are in the later stages of delinquency being charged-off without a successful repossession. In the future, the Company anticipates recovering some portion of those charge-offs as the motorcycles are located, repossessed and sold at auction.

The allowance for credit losses at the end of the first quarter of 2023 was consistent with the balance at the end of 2022 as the overall macro-economic conditions remained uncertain given near-term recession concerns did not abate, elevated levels of inflation continued to challenge the U.S. and global economies, and muted consumer confidence persisted, among other factors. As such, at the end of the first quarter of 2023, the Company’s outlook on economic conditions and its probability weighting of its economic forecast scenarios were weighted towards a near-term recession.

Annualized losses on the Company's retail motorcycle loans were 3.21% during the first quarter of 2023 compared to 1.77% in the first quarter of 2022. The 30-day delinquency rate for retail motorcycle loans at March 31, 2023 increased to 3.74% from 2.87% at March 27, 2022.
Operating expenses increased $4.0 million compared to the first quarter of 2022 due in part to higher employee and repossession related costs as well as a valuation loss on a securitization interest rate cap.

Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to lawsuits and other claims related to product, product recall, commercial, employee, environmental and other matters. In determining costs to accrue related to these items, the Company carefully analyzes cases and considers the likelihood of adverse judgments or outcomes, as well as the potential range of possible loss. Any amounts accrued for these matters are monitored on an ongoing basis and are updated based on new developments or new information as it becomes available for each matter. Refer to Note 14 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements for a discussion of the Company's commitments and contingencies.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company’s strategy is to maintain a minimum of twelve months of its projected liquidity needs through a combination of cash and cash equivalents and availability under its credit facilities.
The Company believes its current cash, cash equivalents and availability under its credit facilities are sufficient to meet its liquidity requirements, consistent with its strategy. The Company expects to fund its operations, excluding the origination of finance receivables, primarily with cash flows from operating activities and cash and cash equivalents on hand.(1) The Company expects to fund the origination of finance receivables primarily with unsecured debt, unsecured commercial paper, asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities, committed unsecured bank facilities, asset-backed securitizations and brokered certificates of deposit.(1)
The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and availability under its credit and conduit facilities at March 31, 2023 were as follows (in thousands):

To access the debt capital markets, the Company relies on credit rating agencies to assign short-term and long-term credit ratings. Generally, lower credit ratings result in higher borrowing costs and reduced access to debt capital markets. A credit rating agency may change or withdraw the Company's ratings based on its assessment of the Company's current and future ability to meet interest and principal repayment obligations. The Company’s short-term debt ratings affect its ability to issue unsecured commercial paper. The Company’s short- and long-term debt ratings, as of March 31, 2023 were as follows:
 Short-TermLong-TermOutlook
Moody’sP3Baa3Stable
Standard & Poor’sA3BBB-Stable
FitchF2BBB+Stable
The Company recognizes that it must continue to monitor and adjust its business to changes in the lending environment. The Company intends to continue with a diversified funding profile through a combination of short-term and long-term funding vehicles and to pursue a variety of sources to obtain cost-effective funding.(1) HDFS segment results could be negatively affected by higher costs of funding and increased difficulty of raising, or potential unsuccessful efforts to raise, funding in the short-term and long-term capital markets.(1) These negative consequences could in turn adversely affect the Company’s business and results of operations in various ways, including through higher costs of capital, reduced funds available through HDFS to provide loans to dealers and their retail customers, and dilution to existing shareholders through the use of alternative sources of capital.

Operating Activities
Cash flow provided by operating activities in the first three months of 2023 compared to the first three months of 2022 was adversely impacted by an increase in wholesale finance receivables, partially offset by a benefit from changes in working capital. Working capital was positively impacted by favorable changes in inventory, partially offset by less favorable changes in accounts payable compared to the first three months of 2022.
The Company continues to expect that it will generate sufficient cash inflows from operating activities to fund its ongoing operating cash requirements excluding operating cash requirements related to the origination of finance receivables which the Company expects to fund through the issuance of debt. The Company's ongoing operating cash requirements include those related to existing contractual commitments. The Company's purchase orders for inventory used in manufacturing generally do not become firm commitments until 90 days prior to expected delivery. The Company's material contractual operating cash commitments at March 31, 2023 relate to leases, retirement plan obligations and income taxes. The Company's long-term lease obligations and future payments are discussed further in Note 10 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There are no required qualified pension plan contributions in 2023. The Company’s expected future contributions and benefit payments related to its defined benefit retirement plans are discussed further in Note 15 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. The Company has a liability for unrecognized tax benefits of $28.4 million and related accrued interest and penalties of $16.0 million as of March 31, 2023.

Net cash outflows for finance receivables during the first three months of 2023 were $67.0 million lower compared to the same period last year due to lower retail finance receivable originations, partially offset by lower collections of finance receivables. The Company funds its finance receivables net lending activity through the issuance of debt, discussed in "Financing Activities" below.
Financing Activities
The Company’s financing activities consist primarily of dividend payments, share repurchases, and debt activity.

Deposits – HDFS offers brokered certificates of deposit to customers indirectly through contractual arrangements with third-party banks and/or securities brokerage firms through its bank subsidiary. The Company had $369.3 million and $348.1 million, net of fees, of interest-bearing brokered certificates of deposit outstanding as of March 31, 2023 and March 27, 2022, respectively. The deposits are classified as short- and long-term liabilities based upon the term of each brokered certificate of deposit issued. Each separate brokered certificate of deposit is issued under a master certificate, and as such, all outstanding brokered certificates of deposit are considered below the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insurance coverage limits.
Credit Facilities – In April 2022, the Company entered into a $710.0 million five-year credit facility to replace the $707.5 million five-year credit facility that was due to mature in April 2023. The new five-year credit facility matures in April 2027. The Company also amended its other $707.5 million five-year credit facility to $710.0 million with no change to the maturity date of April 2025. The five-year credit facilities (together, the Global Credit Facilities) bear interest at variable rates, which may be adjusted upward or downward depending on certain criteria, such as credit ratings. The Global Credit Facilities also require the Company to pay a fee based on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate commitments. The Global Credit Facilities are committed facilities primarily used to support the Company's unsecured commercial paper program.
Unsecured Commercial Paper – Subject to limitations, the Company could issue unsecured commercial paper of up to $1.42 billion as of March 31, 2023 supported by the Global Credit Facilities, as discussed above. Outstanding unsecured commercial paper may not exceed the unused portion of the Global Credit Facilities. Maturities may range up to 365 days from the issuance date. The Company intends to repay unsecured commercial paper as it matures with additional unsecured commercial paper or through other means, such as borrowing under the Global Credit Facilities, borrowing under its asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduit facility or through the use of operating cash flow and cash on hand.(1)
Medium-Term Notes – The Company had the following unsecured medium-term notes issued and outstanding at March 31, 2023 (in thousands):
Principal AmountRateIssue DateMaturity Date
     $706,972(a)

50

The U.S. dollar-denominated medium-term notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and the foreign currency-denominated medium-term notes provide for annual interest payments. Principal on the medium-term notes is due at maturity. Unamortized discounts and debt issuance costs on the medium-term notes reduced the outstanding balance by $14.0 million and $12.2 million at March 31, 2023 and March 27, 2022, respectively. During the first quarter of 2023, $350.0 million of 3.35% medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full. During the first quarter of 2022, $550.0 million of 4.05% medium-term notes matured, and the principal and accrued interest were paid in full.
Senior Notes – In July 2015, the Company issued $750.0 million of unsecured senior notes in an underwritten offering. The senior notes provide for semi-annual interest payments and principal due at maturity. $450.0 million of the senior notes mature in July 2025 and have an interest rate of 3.50%, and $300.0 million of the senior notes mature in July 2045 and have an interest rate of 4.625%. The Company used the proceeds from the debt to repurchase shares of its common stock in 2015.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed Canadian Commercial Paper Conduit Facility – The Company has a revolving facility agreement (Canadian Conduit) with a Canadian bank-sponsored asset-backed commercial paper conduit. Under the agreement, the Canadian Conduit is contractually committed, at the Company's option, to purchase eligible Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables for proceeds up to C$125.0 million. The transferred assets are restricted as collateral for the payment of the associated debt. The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing market interest rates plus a specified margin. The Canadian Conduit also provides for a program fee and an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment of C$125.0 million. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the Canadian Conduit, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement between the Company and the lenders, as of March 31, 2023, the Canadian Conduit has an expiration date of June 30, 2023.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the Canadian Conduit Facility during the first quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company transferred $25.3 million of Canadian retail motorcycle finance receivables to the Canadian Conduit for proceeds of $21.2 million.
On-Balance Sheet Asset-Backed U.S. Commercial Paper Conduit Facilities VIE – The Company has a $1.50 billion revolving facility agreement (the U.S. Conduit Facility) with third-party banks and their asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. Under the revolving facility agreement, the Company may transfer U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE, which in turn may issue debt to those third-party banks and their asset-backed U.S. commercial paper conduits. In November 2022, the Company renewed the U.S. Conduit Facility. As a result of the renewal, the agreement no longer allows for uncommitted additional borrowings, at the lender's discretion, of up to $300.0 million in addition to the $1.50 billion aggregate commitment. Prior to the November 2022 renewal, the Company drew against the $300.0 million of uncommitted additional borrowings that were available prior to the renewal and, at March 31, 2023, $72.8 million of the amount drawn remained outstanding. Availability under the U.S. Conduit Facility is based on, among other things, the amount of eligible U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables held by the SPE as collateral.
There were no finance receivable transfers under the U.S. Conduit Facility during the first quarter of 2023. During the first quarter of 2022, the Company transferred $47.1 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $41.3 million of debt under the U.S. Conduit Facility.
The terms for this debt provide for interest on the outstanding principal based on prevailing commercial paper rates if funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper. Subsequent to the November 2022 renewal, the interest rate on all outstanding debt and future borrowings, if not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, is based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR), with provisions for a transition to other benchmark rates in the future, if necessary. Prior to the renewal, if not funded by a conduit lender through the issuance of commercial paper, the terms of the interest were based on LIBOR or SOFR, as appropriate, with provisions for a transition to other benchmark rates. In addition to interest, a program fee is assessed based on the outstanding debt principal balance. The U.S. Conduit Facility also provides for an unused commitment fee based on the unused portion of the total aggregate commitment. There is no amortization schedule; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. Upon expiration of the U.S. Conduit Facility, any outstanding principal will continue to be reduced monthly through available collections. The expected remaining term of the related receivables held by the SPE is approximately 4 years. Unless earlier terminated or extended by mutual agreement of the Company and the lenders, as of March 31, 2023, the U.S. Conduit Facility has an expiration date of November 17, 2023.
Asset-Backed Securitization VIEs – For all of its asset-backed securitization transactions, the Company transfers U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to separate VIEs, which in turn issue secured notes with various maturities and interest
51

rates to investors. All of the notes held by the VIEs are secured by future collections of the purchased U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables. The U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables included in the asset-backed securitization transactions are not available to pay other obligations or claims of the Company's creditors until the associated debt and other obligations are satisfied. Restricted cash balances held by the VIEs are used only to support the securitizations.
The accounting treatment for asset-backed securitizations depends on the terms of the related transaction and the Company’s continuing involvement with the VIE. The Company's current outstanding asset-backed securitizations do not meet the criteria to be accounted for as a sale because, in addition to retaining servicing rights, the Company retains a financial interest in the VIE in the form of a debt security. These transactions are treated as secured borrowings, and as such, the retail motorcycle finance receivables remain on the balance sheet with a corresponding obligation reflected as debt. There is no amortization schedule for the secured notes; however, the debt is reduced monthly as available collections on the related retail motorcycle finance receivables are applied to outstanding principal. The secured notes currently have various contractual maturities ranging from 2024 to 2030.
During the first quarter of 2023, the Company transferred $628.5 million of U.S. retail motorcycle finance receivables to an SPE which, in turn, issued $550.0 million, or $547.7 million net of discount and issuance costs, of secured notes through an on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transaction. There were no on-balance sheet asset-backed securitization transactions during the first quarter of 2022.
Intercompany Agreements – On January 27, 2023, Harley-Davidson, Inc. entered into a revolving line of credit with Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc. whereby Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc. may borrow up to $200.0 million at market interest rates with an expiration date of July 27, 2024. As of March 31, 2023, Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc. had no outstanding borrowings owed to Harley-Davidson, Inc. under this agreement.
Harley Davidson, Inc. also has a support agreement with Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc. whereby, if required, Harley-Davidson, Inc. agrees to provide Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc. with financial support to maintain Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc.’s fixed-charge coverage at 1.25 and minimum net worth of $40.0 million. Support may be provided at Harley-Davidson, Inc.'s option as capital contributions or loans. No amount has ever been provided to Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc. under the support agreement.
Operating and Financial Covenants – Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc. and the Company are subject to various operating and financial covenants related to the credit facilities and various operating covenants under the medium-term and senior notes and the U.S. and Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities. The more significant covenants are described below.
The operating covenants limit the Company’s and Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc’s ability to:
Assume or incur certain liens;
Participate in certain mergers or consolidations; and
Purchase or hold margin stock.
Under the current financial covenants of the Global Credit Facilities, the ratio of Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc.’s consolidated debt, excluding secured debt, to Harley-Davidson Financial Services' consolidated allowance for credit losses on finance receivables plus Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc’s consolidated shareholders' equity, excluding accumulated other comprehensive loss (AOCL), cannot exceed 10.0 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. In addition, the ratio of the Company's consolidated debt to the Company's consolidated debt and consolidated shareholders’ equity (where the Company's consolidated debt in each case excludes that of Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc. and its subsidiaries, and the Company's consolidated shareholders’ equity excludes AOCL), cannot exceed 0.7 to 1.0 as of the end of any fiscal quarter. No financial covenants are required under the medium-term or senior notes or the U.S. or Canadian asset-backed commercial paper conduit facilities.
As of March 31, 2023, Harley-Davidson Financial Services Inc. and the Company remained in compliance with all of the then existing covenants.

In recent years, Harley-Davidson Financial Services (HDFS) experienced historically low levels of retail credit losses, but credit losses have been normalizing to higher levels in recent quarters. Further, the Company believes that HDFS's retail credit losses will continue to change over time due to changing consumer credit behavior, macroeconomic conditions including the impact of inflation, and HDFS's efforts to adjust underwriting criteria based on market and economic conditions, as well as actions that the Company has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values.
The Company's operations, demand for its products, and its liquidity could be adversely impacted by work stoppages, facility closures, strikes, natural causes, widespread infectious disease, terrorism, war or other hostilities, including the conflict in Ukraine, or other factors. Refer to Risk Factors under Item 1.A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 for a discussion of additional risk factors and a more complete discussion of some of the cautionary statements noted above.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices and interest rates. To reduce such risks, the Company selectively uses derivative financial instruments. All hedging transactions are authorized and executed pursuant to regularly reviewed policies and procedures, which prohibit the use of financial instruments for speculative trading purposes. Sensitivity analysis is used to manage and monitor foreign currency exchange rate and interest rate risks. Further disclosure relating to the fair value of the Company's derivative financial instruments is included in Note 8 of the Notes to Consolidated financial statements.
HDMC Segment
The Company sells its motorcycles and related products internationally and in most markets those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, the HDMC segment operating results are affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies. The Company’s most significant foreign currency exchange rate risk resulting from the sale of motorcycles and related products relates to the Euro, Australian dollar, Japanese yen, Brazilian real, Canadian dollar, Mexican peso, Chinese yuan, Singapore dollar, Thai baht and Pound sterling. The Company utilizes foreign currency contracts to mitigate the effect of certain currencies' fluctuations on HDMC segment operating results. The foreign currency contracts are entered into with banks and allow the Company to exchange currencies at a future date, based on a fixed exchange rate. There have been no material changes to the foreign currency exchange rate market risk information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
The Company purchases commodities for the use in the production of motorcycles. As a result, HDMC segment operating income is affected by changes in commodity prices. The Company uses derivative financial instruments on a limited basis to hedge the prices of certain commodities. There have been no material changes to the commodity market risk information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
LiveWire Segment
LiveWire has sold and expects to sell its electric motorcycles, electric balance bikes and related products internationally, and in most markets, those sales are made in the foreign country’s local currency. As a result, LiveWire’s operating results are affected by fluctuations in the values of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies; however, the impact of such fluctuations on LiveWire’s operations to date have not been material given the majority of LiveWire’s sales are currently in the U.S. LiveWire plans to expand its business and operations internationally and expects its exposure to currency rate risk to increase as it grows its international presence.
HDFS Segment
The Company has interest rate sensitive financial instruments including financial receivables, debt and interest rate derivative financial instruments. As a result, HDFS operating income is affected by changes in interest rates. The Company
54

utilizes interest rate caps to reduce the impact of fluctuations in interest rates on its asset-backed securitization transactions. There have been no material changes to the interest rate market risk information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
HDFS also has short-term commercial paper and debt issued through the commercial paper conduit facilities that is subject to changes in interest rates which it does not hedge. There have been no material changes to the interest rate market risk information included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
The Company has foreign denominated medium-term notes, and as a result, HDFS operating income is affected by fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies and interest rates.

Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc., a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the Principal Amount specified above, as revised by the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Note attached hereto, on the Maturity Date specified above and to pay to the registered holder of this Note (the “Holder”) interest on said Principal Amount at a rate per annum specified above and upon the terms provided below under either the heading “Provisions Applicable to Fixed Rate Notes Only” or “Provisions Applicable to Floating Rate Notes Only.”

This Note is one of the Company’s duly authorized issue of notes in the series titled 6.50% Medium-Term Notes due 2028 (herein referred to as the “Notes”), all issued or to be issued under an indenture, dated as of December 18, 2020 (as may be supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Harley-Davidson Credit Corp. (the “Guarantor”) and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantor and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes of this series are limited (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture) to the aggregate principal amount established from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors (as defined in the Indenture). The Notes of this series may be issued at various times with different maturity dates and different principal repayment provisions, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary, all as provided in the Indenture. The Notes of this series may be subject to redemption upon notice and in accordance with the provisions of this Note and the Indenture. The Company and the Guarantor may defease the Notes of this series in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

To secure the due and punctual payment of principal, any premium, any interest and Additional Amounts (as defined in the Indenture) on this Note by the Company under the Indenture, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Maturity Date, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, the Guarantor has unconditionally

guaranteed this Note pursuant to the terms of the Guarantee endorsed hereon and in Article Sixteen of the Indenture (the “Guarantee”).

As used herein, the term “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are authorized or



required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the City of New York; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above, the day is also not a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing such Specified Currency or, if such Specified Currency is the Euro, the day is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) System is open.

Principal Financial Center” means, unless otherwise provided in this Note, the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency; except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, South African rand and Swiss francs, the “Principal Financial Center” will be the City of New York, Sydney and (solely in the case of the Specified Currency) Melbourne, Toronto, Johannesburg and Zurich, respectively.

Provisions Applicable To Fixed Rate Notes Only:

If the “Fixed Rate” line above is checked, unless otherwise specified above, the Company will pay interest semiannually on March 10 and September 10 of each year (each such date fixed for the payment of interest, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing on September 10, 2023, and ending on the Maturity Date or upon earlier redemption or repayment to the person to whom principal is payable. Interest shall accrue from the Original Issue Date, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for on this Note to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or earlier date of redemption or repayment, as the case may be. Interest on Fixed Rate Notes will be computed by the Company on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment) of this Fixed Rate Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.

Provisions Applicable To Floating Rate Notes Only:

If the “Floating Rate” line above is checked, the Company will pay interest on the Interest Payment Dates shown specified above at the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth under the headings “Determination of CD Rate,” “Determination of CMT Rate,” “Determination of

Commercial Paper Rate,” “Determination of Federal Funds Rate,” “Determination of Prime Rate” or “Determination of Treasury Rate,” depending on whether the Interest Rate Basis is the CD Rate, the CMT Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, the Prime Rate, the Treasury Rate or other Interest Rate Basis.

An interest payment shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date, or from and including the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or date of earlier redemption or repayment, as the case may be (an “Interest Period”). Notwithstanding any



provision herein to the contrary, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified above.

If any Interest Payment Date for any Floating Rate Note, other than an Interest Payment Date at maturity, would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the following day that is a Business Day, and interest will continue to accrue to the following Business Day. If the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) of any Floating Rate Note would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal (and premium, if any) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment).

Commencing with the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above under “Interest Reset Dates.”

The interest rate borne by this Note will be determined as follows:

Unless the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” or an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” or in the event either “Other Provisions” or an Addendum hereto applies, in each case, relating to a different interest rate formula, this Note shall be designated as a “Regular Floating Rate Note” and, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any; in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate.

If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that (y) the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate and (z) the interest rate in effect for the period commencing on, and including, the Fixed Rate Commencement Date specified above to the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) shall be the Fixed Interest Rate specified above or, if no Fixed Interest Rate is so specified, the interest rate in effect on the day immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.

If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at (a) the Fixed Interest Rate specified



above minus (b) the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases:

plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or

multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above;

provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, the interest rate hereon shall not be less than zero. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset on each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate set forth above.

The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to be added to or subtracted from the Interest Rate Basis for a Floating Rate Note, and the “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specified above by which the Interest Rate Basis for such Floating Rate Note will be multiplied. Both a Spread and/or a Spread Multiplier may be applicable to the Interest Rate Basis for a particular Floating Rate Note, as set forth above.

Each such adjusted Interest Rate Basis shall be applicable on and after the Interest Reset Date to which it relates but not including the next succeeding Interest Reset Date. If any Interest Reset Date is a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day. In addition, if the Treasury Rate is the applicable Interest Rate Basis and the Interest Determination Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day. Subject to applicable provisions of law (including usury laws) and except as specified in this Note, on each Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below.

With respect to a Floating Rate Note, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount thereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the Interest Period or from the

last date from which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases of CD Rate Notes, Commercial Paper Rate Notes, Federal Funds Rate Notes and Prime Rate Notes or by the actual number of days in the year, in the cases of CMT Rate Notes and Treasury Rate Notes. The interest rate applicable to any day that is an Interest Reset Date will be the interest rate effective on such Interest Reset Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day will be the interest rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate, as specified above).

The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, pertaining to an Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day



preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.

For Floating Rate Notes, Citibank, N.A. shall be the calculation agent unless another calculation agent is specified above (the “Calculation Agent”). As Calculation Agent, Citibank, N.A. shall have all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it as Trustee under the Indenture, unless a calculation agency agreement is entered into, in which case, such agreement would control. The interest rate applicable to each interest period will be determined by the Calculation Agent on or prior to the applicable Calculation Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.

All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a Floating Rate Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward).

Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CD Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CD Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CD Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15(519) (as defined below) on such CD Interest Determination Date under the heading “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15 Daily Update (as defined below), or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent on the Notes as the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date, of three leading non-bank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in the City of New York (which may include an agent or its affiliates) selected by the Company for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money market banks with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. If the dealers selected by the Company as provided in the preceding sentence are not quoting as mentioned in such sentence, the CD Rate shall be the CD Rate in effect on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date.

H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.




H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world- wide-web site of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication.

Determination of CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CMT Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CMT Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CMT Interest Determination Date”) and shall be, if “CMT Reuters Page FRBCMT” is specified above, the percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor or similar service), on page FRBCMT (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”) (“Reuters Page FRBCMT”). If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FRBCMT, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date for the period of the Index Maturity specified above, as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would otherwise have been published in H.15(519). In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not published, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates (each a “Reference Dealer”), selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to in the above sentence are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated; provided, however, that if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the highest and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is



representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. However, if fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If the CMT Reuters Page FEDCMT is specified above, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, and will be the average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDCMT (or any other page as may replace that specified page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDCMT”), for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FEDCMT, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the week or month, as applicable, preceding the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) opposite the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not publish the rate referred to above, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or (in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above and will be



in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated, or if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If two United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity as specified above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Index Maturity specified above, the quotes for the United States Treasury security with the shorter original remaining term to maturity will be used.

Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Commercial Paper Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Commercial Paper Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such date of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity as indicated above, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published as provided in the preceding sentence, then the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of United States dollar commercial paper in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper having the Index Maturity

specified above, placed for industrial issuers whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date.

Money Market Yield” shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:
Money market yield
Dx360
x 10
360 - (DxM)

where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal; and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.




Determination of Federal Funds Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to the Federal Funds Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Federal Funds Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Federal Funds Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on that date for United States dollar Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Federal Funds (Effective),” as displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDFUND01 (or any other page as may replace the applicable page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDFUND01”) or, if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page FEDFUND01, or is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the rate on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date for United States dollar Federal Funds will be the rate on such Federal Funds Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight United States dollar Federal Funds arranged by three leading brokers of United States dollar Federal Funds transactions in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Company before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if the brokers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Federal Funds Rate will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date.

Determination of Prime Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Prime Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Prime Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Prime Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate set forth on such date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate. will be as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page (as defined below) as the particular bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates are so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date as shown on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page for the Prime Interest Determination Date, the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year as of the close of business on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date by three major banks, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, in the City of New York selected by the Company. However, if the banks selected by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in the preceding sentence, the Prime Rate will be the Prime Rate in effect on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date.




Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page” means the display on the Reuter Money 3000 Service or any successor service on the “US PRIME 1 Page” or other page as may replace US PRIME 1 Page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks.

Determination of Treasury Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to the Treasury Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Treasury Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be the rate from the auction held on the applicable Interest Determination Date (the “Auction”) of direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury Bills”) having the Index Maturity, as specified above, as published under the caption “INVESTMENT RATE” on the display on Reuters, Inc. or any successor or similar service on page USAUCTION 10 or any other page as may replace page USAUCTION 10 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 10”) or page USAUCTION 11 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 11”), or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date (as defined below), the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate for the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury Bills announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or, if the rate is not announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the Auction is not held, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of Treasury Bills having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.” In the event that the results of the auction of Treasury Bills having the applicable Index Maturity specified above are not published or reported, as provided above, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate Determination Date, then the Treasury Rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three primary United States government securities dealers, which may include the agent or its affiliates, selected by the Company, for the issue of Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Treasury Rate will be the Treasury Rate in effect on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date.
The “Treasury Rate Determination Date” for any Interest Reset Date will be the day of the week in which such Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury Bills would normally be auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction



is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Date occurring in the next succeeding week.

Bond Equivalent Yield” means a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:
Bond Equivalent Yield
DxN
x 10
360 - (DxM)

where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal; “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.

Provisions Applicable To Both Fixed Rate Notes And Floating Rate Notes:

The interest so payable on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions in the Indenture hereinafter referred to, be paid to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date (as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date or, if the Interest Payment Date is the Maturity Date or the date of earlier redemption or repayment, to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Maturity Date or such earlier date of redemption or repayment; provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date is between a Regular Record Date and an Interest Payment Date or on an Interest Payment Date, interest for the period from and including the Original Issue Date to, but excluding, the Interest Payment Date relating to such Regular Record Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the person in whose name this Note is registered on the close of business on the Regular Record Date preceding such Interest Payment Date. If this Note bears interest at a Fixed Rate, as specified above, unless otherwise specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the 28th day of February and the 31st day of August, whether or not a Business Day, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date. If this Note bears interest at a Floating Rate, as specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the fifteenth calendar day next preceding such Interest Payment Date, whether or not such date shall be a Business Day.

Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above and such payment is to be made in such Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the Holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date or such earlier redemption or repayment date, as the case may be, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note is presented and surrendered at the Place of Payment specified above in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, other than the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date, will be made at the Place of Payment specified above.




Whenever in this Note or in the Indenture there is a reference, in any context, to the payment of the principal of, or interest, if any, on, or in respect of, the Notes, such payment shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect of such payment pursuant to the provisions hereof or thereof and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof or thereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

The Company is obligated to make payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in United States dollars or, if a Specified Currency is indicated above, in such Specified Currency (or, if such Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts of the country issuing such currency or, in the case of the Euro, in the member states of the European Union that have adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty Establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union, such other currency which is then such legal tender in such country or in the adopting member states of the European Union, as the case may be). If a Specified Currency is specified above, except as otherwise provided below, any such amounts so payable by the Company will be converted by a New York clearing house bank designated by the Company (the “Exchange Rate Agent”) into United States dollars for payment to the Holder of this Note.

If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive any amount payable hereunder in such Specified Currency. If the Holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the Holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in the City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Company for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to all Holders of Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.

If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at the Place of Payment on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by facsimile transmission. The Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee



on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be.

If a Specified Currency is specified above and the Holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, but such Specified Currency is not available for such payment due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate on or before the date on which such payment is due. The “Market Exchange Rate” for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfers of the Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made in United States dollars under such circumstances shall not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture).

All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of this Note.

In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal amount (or, if the Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, such lesser portion of the principal amount as may be applicable) of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable, and, with respect to certain Events of Default, shall automatically become due and payable, in each case in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, in the event of an acceleration of the Maturity Date hereof, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note upon such acceleration will be determined by this Note but will be an amount less than the amount payable at the Maturity Date of this Note.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Guarantor with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series, on behalf of the Holders of all Debt Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company and the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.

This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof or other Authorized Denomination specified above.




As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered in the Debt Security Register (as defined in the Indenture) of this series upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Place of Payment specified above, duly endorsed by or accompanied by, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Note or Notes of this series of Authorized Denomination and for the same aggregate principal amount, with the Guarantee endorsed thereon, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of the Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

The Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered in the Debt Security Register as the owner of this Note for all purposes (other than for the determination of any Additional Amounts payable) and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Prior to February 10, 2028 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and 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:

the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

If any redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day. “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company 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) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company 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 the Par Call Date (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 the Par Call Date 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 H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company 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, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company 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 Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall have no responsibility in calculating the redemption price.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depository’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to the Holder hereof in accordance with Section 15.03 of the Indenture, except that redemption notices may be provided more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the Notes and/or the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, notice of any redemption to the Holder hereof may, in the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more



conditions precedent, including completion of a corporate transaction. In such event, the related notice of redemption will describe each such condition and, if applicable, will state that, in the Company’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes 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 Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. 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 upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depository, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depository.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the principal amount of this Note called for redemption.

This Note will not be subject to, or have the benefit of, any sinking fund.

Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, if an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem this Note as described above, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, within 30 days following any HDI Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any HDI Change of Control (as defined below), but after public announcement by HDI (as defined below) of the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, an HDI Change of Control, a notice will be delivered to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice. Such date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the HDI Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

If any Change of Control Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next Business Day as if it



were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all such Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee such Notes properly accepted together with a Company Officers’ Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased.

The Company will not be required to comply with the obligations relating to repurchasing the Notes if a third-party instead satisfies them.

The Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations applicable to the repurchase of the Notes. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such compliance.

If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes properly tender and do not validly withdraw such amount of the Notes in a Change of Control Offer, and the Company, or any third-party making an offer to purchase the Notes in connection with an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of the Company, purchase such amount of the Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, then the Company will have the right, upon notice described above, given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all (but not less than all) of the 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 as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date). If the redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day. For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the following terms will be applicable:

Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Notes cease to be rated an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an HDI Change of Control and (2) the first public announcement by Harley-Davidson, Inc. (“HDI”) of the intention of HDI to effect an HDI Change of Control (which 60-day period will be extended for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible downgrade of the rating of the notes of such series); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a



particular HDI Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of HDI Change of Control Triggering Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Company in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable HDI Change of Control (whether or not the applicable HDI Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). The Trustee has no obligation to monitor the ratings of the Notes for purposes of determining the occurrence of a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

Fitch” means Fitch Ratings, Inc. and its successors.

HDI Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of HDI or other Voting Stock into which the Voting Stock of HDI is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or
(2) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation or as a pledge for security purposes only), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of HDI and the assets of the subsidiaries of HDI, taken as a whole, to one or more “persons” (as that term is defined in the Indenture), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries and other than any such transaction or series of related transactions where holders of Voting Stock of HDI outstanding immediately prior thereto hold voting stock of the transferee person representing a majority of the voting power of the transferee person’s voting stock immediately after giving effect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to be an HDI Change of Control if (1) HDI becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of HDI immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company. “HDI Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both an HDI Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no HDI Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular HDI Change of Control unless and until such HDI Change of Control has actually been consummated.

Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Moody’s), BBB− by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) and BBB− by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Fitch), and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company.




Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.

Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, and (2) if any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (or in each case any replacement thereof appointed pursuant to this definition) ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a replacement agency for Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch, as the case may be; provided that the Company shall give notice of any such replacement to the Trustee.
S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc. and its successors. “Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), as of any date, the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.

In lieu of Section 5.05 of the Indenture, the following covenant shall apply:

Limitation on Liens. The Company and the Guarantor will not, nor will they permit any Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture) of the Company or the Guarantor to, issue or assume any Indebtedness (as defined in the Indenture) secured by a Lien (as defined in the Indenture) upon any Property (as defined in the Indenture) (now owned or hereinafter acquired) of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Indebtedness that the Notes (together with, if the Company or the Guarantor shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, apply if the aggregate amount of Indebtedness issued or assumed by the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries and so secured by Liens, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be subject to such restrictions, but not including Indebtedness permitted to be secured under clauses (i) through (xv) of the immediately following paragraph, does not at the time such secured Indebtedness is incurred exceed 15% of the applicable Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (as defined in the Indenture).

The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Indebtedness secured by:

Liens existing on the date of the original issuance of the Notes;

Liens on any Property of any company existing at the time such company becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, which Liens are not created in contemplation of such company becoming a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor;

Liens on any Property existing at the time such Property is acquired by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, or Liens to secure the



payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such Property upon the acquisition of such Property by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor or to secure any Indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after, the later of the date of acquisition of such Property and the date such Property is placed in service, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof, or Liens to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing the cost to the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor of improvements to such acquired Property or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the cost of construction of the Property subject to such Liens;

Liens securing any Indebtedness of the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor owing to the Company, the Guarantor or to another Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor;

Liens created in connection with a securitization or other asset-based financing;

Liens with respect to the payment of taxes, assessments or governmental charges in all cases which are not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;

statutory Liens of landlords and Liens of suppliers, mechanics, carriers, materialmen, warehousemen or workmen and other similar Liens imposed by law created in the ordinary course of business for amounts not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;

Liens incurred or deposits made in the ordinary course of business in connection with worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance or other types of social security benefits or to secure the performance of bids, tenders, sales, contracts (other than for the repayment of borrowed money), surety, appeal and performance bonds;

Liens arising with respect to zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, covenants, rights-of-way, utility easements, building restrictions and other similar charges or encumbrances on the use of real property which do not interfere with the ordinary conduct of the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;

Liens of attachment or judgment with respect to judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;

Liens arising from leases, subleases or licenses granted to others which do not interfere in any material respect with the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;

any interest or title of the lessor in the Property subject to any operating lease (as determined in accordance with GAAP as in effect as of December 1, 2018), entered into by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;




Liens, if any, in connection with any sale/leaseback transaction;

Liens on assets pledged in respect of Indebtedness that has been redeemed, defeased and/or discharged in accordance with the provisions thereof through the deposit of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities (it being understood that cash collateral shall be deemed to include cash deposited with a trustee with respect to third party indebtedness); and

any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) - (xiv); provided, however, that such new Lien is limited to the Property (or type of Property) which was subject to the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement, and provided, further, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased.

In lieu of Section 7.01(f) and Section 7.01(i) of the Indenture, each of the following, respectively, shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes:

(f) any event of default by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries as defined in any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any Indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, whether such Indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, resulting in such Indebtedness in a principal amount of at least $150,000,000 becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable, and such acceleration shall not be rescinded or annulled within a period of 30 days after there has been given, by overnight courier, registered or certified mail, to the Company and the Guarantor by the Trustee or to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture; and

(i) final judgment of money in excess of $150,000,000 (not covered by third-party insurance), singularly or in the aggregate, shall be rendered against the Company or the Guarantor or any of their respective Material Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) and shall remain undischarged and unstayed for a period (during which execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days after such judgment becomes final.

The Company may “reopen” a previously issued tranche of Notes and issue additional Notes of such tranche or establish additional terms of such tranche or issue notes with the same terms as previously issued Notes (except for the Original Issue Date, Issue Price and, if applicable, the initial Interest Payment Date).

The Company may at any time purchase this Note at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may be held or resold or, at the discretion of the Company, may be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.




For the avoidance of doubt, Article Thirteen of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

By acceptance of this Note, the Holder hereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Indenture. Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture. Facsimile signatures for the purposes of the Indenture are intended to include electronic signatures (including DocuSign). This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture.

None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any benchmark or floating rate note index, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any benchmark transition event or related benchmark replacement date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index or basis, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or
(iv) to determine whether or what benchmark replacement conforming changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, paying agent and Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith.

None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth herein as a result of the unavailability of any benchmark or index or other applicable benchmark replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms hereof and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Company’s actions or omissions or for those of the Company’s designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Company or its designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, paying agent or Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the Company’s performance or that of its designee.

Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc., a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the Principal Amount specified above, as revised by the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Note attached hereto, on the Maturity Date specified above and to pay to the registered holder of this Note (the “Holder”) interest on said Principal Amount at a rate per annum specified above and upon the terms provided below under either the heading “Provisions Applicable to Fixed Rate Notes Only” or “Provisions Applicable to Floating Rate Notes Only.”

This Note is one of the Company’s duly authorized issue of notes in the series titled 6.50% Medium-Term Notes due 2028 (herein referred to as the “Notes”), all issued or to be issued under an indenture, dated as of December 18, 2020 (as may be supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Harley-Davidson Credit Corp. (the “Guarantor”) and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantor and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes of this series are limited (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture) to the aggregate principal amount established from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors (as defined in the Indenture). The Notes of this series may be issued at various times with different maturity dates and different principal repayment provisions, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary, all as provided in the Indenture. The Notes of this series may be subject to redemption upon notice and in accordance with the provisions of this Note and the Indenture. The Company and the Guarantor may defease the Notes of this series in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

To secure the due and punctual payment of principal, any premium, any interest and Additional Amounts (as defined in the Indenture) on this Note by the Company under the



Indenture, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Maturity Date, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, the Guarantor has unconditionally

guaranteed this Note pursuant to the terms of the Guarantee endorsed hereon and in Article Sixteen of the Indenture (the “Guarantee”).

As used herein, the term “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the City of New York; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above, the day is also not a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing such Specified Currency or, if such Specified Currency is the Euro, the day is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) System is open.

Principal Financial Center” means, unless otherwise provided in this Note, the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency; except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, South African rand and Swiss francs, the “Principal Financial Center” will be the City of New York, Sydney and (solely in the case of the Specified Currency) Melbourne, Toronto, Johannesburg and Zurich, respectively.

Provisions Applicable To Fixed Rate Notes Only:

If the “Fixed Rate” line above is checked, unless otherwise specified above, the Company will pay interest semiannually on March 10 and September 10 of each year (each such date fixed for the payment of interest, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing on September 10, 2023, and ending on the Maturity Date or upon earlier redemption or repayment to the person to whom principal is payable. Interest shall accrue from the Original Issue Date, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for on this Note to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or earlier date of redemption or repayment, as the case may be. Interest on Fixed Rate Notes will be computed by the Company on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment) of this Fixed Rate Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.

Provisions Applicable To Floating Rate Notes Only:

If the “Floating Rate” line above is checked, the Company will pay interest on the Interest Payment Dates shown specified above at the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth under the headings “Determination of CD Rate,” “Determination of CMT Rate,” “Determination of




Commercial Paper Rate,” “Determination of Federal Funds Rate,” “Determination of Prime Rate” or “Determination of Treasury Rate,” depending on whether the Interest Rate Basis is the CD Rate, the CMT Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, the Prime Rate, the Treasury Rate or other Interest Rate Basis.

An interest payment shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date, or from and including the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or date of earlier redemption or repayment, as the case may be (an “Interest Period”). Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified above.

If any Interest Payment Date for any Floating Rate Note, other than an Interest Payment Date at maturity, would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the following day that is a Business Day, and interest will continue to accrue to the following Business Day. If the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) of any Floating Rate Note would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal (and premium, if any) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment).

Commencing with the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above under “Interest Reset Dates.”

The interest rate borne by this Note will be determined as follows:

Unless the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” or an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” or in the event either “Other Provisions” or an Addendum hereto applies, in each case, relating to a different interest rate formula, this Note shall be designated as a “Regular Floating Rate Note” and, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any; in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate.

If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or

multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable



shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that (y) the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate and (z) the interest rate in effect for the period commencing on, and including, the Fixed Rate Commencement Date specified above to the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) shall be the Fixed Interest Rate specified above or, if no Fixed Interest Rate is so specified, the interest rate in effect on the day immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.

If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at (a) the Fixed Interest Rate specified above minus (b) the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases:
plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or
multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above;

provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, the interest rate hereon shall not be less than zero. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset on each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate set forth above.

The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to be added to or subtracted from the Interest Rate Basis for a Floating Rate Note, and the “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specified above by which the Interest Rate Basis for such Floating Rate Note will be multiplied. Both a Spread and/or a Spread Multiplier may be applicable to the Interest Rate Basis for a particular Floating Rate Note, as set forth above.

Each such adjusted Interest Rate Basis shall be applicable on and after the Interest Reset Date to which it relates but not including the next succeeding Interest Reset Date. If any Interest Reset Date is a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day. In addition, if the Treasury Rate is the applicable Interest Rate Basis and the Interest Determination Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day. Subject to applicable provisions of law (including usury laws) and except as specified in this Note, on each Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below.

With respect to a Floating Rate Note, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount thereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the Interest Period or from the last date from which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases of CD Rate Notes, Commercial Paper Rate Notes, Federal Funds Rate Notes and Prime Rate Notes or by the actual number of days in the year, in the cases of CMT Rate Notes and Treasury Rate Notes. The



interest rate applicable to any day that is an Interest Reset Date will be the interest rate effective on such Interest Reset Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day will be the interest rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate, as specified above).

The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, pertaining to an Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.

For Floating Rate Notes, Citibank, N.A. shall be the calculation agent unless another calculation agent is specified above (the “Calculation Agent”). As Calculation Agent, Citibank, N.A. shall have all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it as Trustee under the Indenture, unless a calculation agency agreement is entered into, in which case, such agreement would control. The interest rate applicable to each interest period will be determined by the Calculation Agent on or prior to the applicable Calculation Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.

All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a Floating Rate Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward).

Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CD Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CD Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CD Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15(519) (as defined below) on such CD Interest Determination Date under the heading “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15 Daily Update (as defined below), or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent on the Notes as the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date, of three leading non-bank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in the City of New York (which may include an agent or its affiliates) selected by the Company for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money market banks with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. If the dealers selected by the



Company as provided in the preceding sentence are not quoting as mentioned in such sentence, the CD Rate shall be the CD Rate in effect on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date.

H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world- wide-web site of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication.

Determination of CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CMT Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CMT Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CMT Interest Determination Date”) and shall be, if “CMT Reuters Page FRBCMT” is specified above, the percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor or similar service), on page FRBCMT (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”) (“Reuters Page FRBCMT”). If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FRBCMT, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date for the period of the Index Maturity specified above, as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would otherwise have been published in H.15(519). In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not published, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates (each a “Reference Dealer”), selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to in the above sentence are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated; provided, however, that if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m.,



New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the highest and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. However, if fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If the CMT Reuters Page FEDCMT is specified above, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, and will be the average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDCMT (or any other page as may replace that specified page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDCMT”), for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FEDCMT, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the week or month, as applicable, preceding the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) opposite the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not publish the rate referred to above, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of



approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or (in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above and will be in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated, or if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If two United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity as specified above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Index Maturity specified above, the quotes for the United States Treasury security with the shorter original remaining term to maturity will be used.

Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Commercial Paper Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Commercial Paper Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such date of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity as indicated above, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published as provided in the preceding sentence, then the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of United States dollar commercial paper in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, placed for industrial issuers whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date.

Money Market Yield” shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:



Money market yield
Dx360
x 10
360 - (DxM)

where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal; and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to the Federal Funds Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Federal Funds Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Federal Funds Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on that date for United States dollar Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Federal Funds (Effective),” as displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDFUND01 (or any other page as may replace the applicable page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDFUND01”) or, if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page FEDFUND01, or is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the rate on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date for United States dollar Federal Funds will be the rate on such Federal Funds Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight United States dollar Federal Funds arranged by three leading brokers of United States dollar Federal Funds transactions in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Company before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if the brokers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Federal Funds Rate will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date.

Determination of Prime Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Prime Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Prime Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Prime Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate set forth on such date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate. will be as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page (as defined below) as the particular bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates are so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date as shown on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page for the Prime Interest Determination Date, the Prime Rate will be determined by



the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year as of the close of business on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date by three major banks, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, in the City of New York selected by the Company. However, if the banks selected by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in the preceding sentence, the Prime Rate will be the Prime Rate in effect on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date.

Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page” means the display on the Reuter Money 3000 Service or any successor service on the “US PRIME 1 Page” or other page as may replace US PRIME 1 Page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks.

Determination of Treasury Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to the Treasury Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Treasury Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be the rate from the auction held on the applicable Interest Determination Date (the “Auction”) of direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury Bills”) having the Index Maturity, as specified above, as published under the caption “INVESTMENT RATE” on the display on Reuters, Inc. or any successor or similar service on page USAUCTION 10 or any other page as may replace page USAUCTION 10 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 10”) or page USAUCTION 11 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 11”), or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date (as defined below), the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate for the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury Bills announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or, if the rate is not announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the Auction is not held, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of Treasury Bills having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.” In the event that the results of the auction of Treasury Bills having the applicable Index Maturity specified above are not published or reported, as provided above, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate Determination Date, then the Treasury Rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three primary United States government securities dealers, which may include the agent or its affiliates, selected by the Company, for the issue of Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the



Treasury Rate will be the Treasury Rate in effect on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date.
The “Treasury Rate Determination Date” for any Interest Reset Date will be the day of the week in which such Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury Bills would normally be auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Date occurring in the next succeeding week.

Provisions Applicable To Both Fixed Rate Notes And Floating Rate Notes:

The interest so payable on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions in the Indenture hereinafter referred to, be paid to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date (as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date or, if the Interest Payment Date is the Maturity Date or the date of earlier redemption or repayment, to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Maturity Date or such earlier date of redemption or repayment; provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date is between a Regular Record Date and an Interest Payment Date or on an Interest Payment Date, interest for the period from and including the Original Issue Date to, but excluding, the Interest Payment Date relating to such Regular Record Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the person in whose name this Note is registered on the close of business on the Regular Record Date preceding such Interest Payment Date. If this Note bears interest at a Fixed Rate, as specified above, unless otherwise specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the 28th day of February and the 31st day of August, whether or not a Business Day, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date. If this Note bears interest at a Floating Rate, as specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the fifteenth calendar day next preceding such Interest Payment Date, whether or not such date shall be a Business Day.

Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above and such payment is to be made in such Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the Holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date or such earlier redemption or



repayment date, as the case may be, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note is presented and surrendered at the Place of Payment specified above in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, other than the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date, will be made at the Place of Payment specified above.

Whenever in this Note or in the Indenture there is a reference, in any context, to the payment of the principal of, or interest, if any, on, or in respect of, the Notes, such payment shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect of such payment pursuant to the provisions hereof or thereof and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof or thereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

The Company is obligated to make payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in United States dollars or, if a Specified Currency is indicated above, in such Specified Currency (or, if such Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts of the country issuing such currency or, in the case of the Euro, in the member states of the European Union that have adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty Establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union, such other currency which is then such legal tender in such country or in the adopting member states of the European Union, as the case may be). If a Specified Currency is specified above, except as otherwise provided below, any such amounts so payable by the Company will be converted by a New York clearing house bank designated by the Company (the “Exchange Rate Agent”) into United States dollars for payment to the Holder of this Note.

If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive any amount payable hereunder in such Specified Currency. If the Holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the Holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in the City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Company for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to all Holders of Notes scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.

If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at the Place of Payment on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may



be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by facsimile transmission. The Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be.

If a Specified Currency is specified above and the Holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, but such Specified Currency is not available for such payment due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate on or before the date on which such payment is due. The “Market Exchange Rate” for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfers of the Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made in United States dollars under such circumstances shall not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture).

All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of this Note.

In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal amount (or, if the Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, such lesser portion of the principal amount as may be applicable) of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable, and, with respect to certain Events of Default, shall automatically become due and payable, in each case in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, in the event of an acceleration of the Maturity Date hereof, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note upon such acceleration will be determined by this Note but will be an amount less than the amount payable at the Maturity Date of this Note.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Guarantor with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series, on behalf of the Holders of all Debt Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company and the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.




This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof or other Authorized Denomination specified above.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered in the Debt Security Register (as defined in the Indenture) of this series upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Place of Payment specified above, duly endorsed by or accompanied by, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Note or Notes of this series of Authorized Denomination and for the same aggregate principal amount, with the Guarantee endorsed thereon, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of the Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

The Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered in the Debt Security Register as the owner of this Note for all purposes (other than for the determination of any Additional Amounts payable) and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Prior to February 10, 2028 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and 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:

the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

If any redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day. “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.




The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company 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) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company 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 the Par Call Date (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 the Par Call Date 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 H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company 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, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company 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 Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall have no responsibility in calculating the redemption price.




Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depository’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to the Holder hereof in accordance with Section 15.03 of the Indenture, except that redemption notices may be provided more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the Notes and/or the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, notice of any redemption to the Holder hereof may, in the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a corporate transaction. In such event, the related notice of redemption will describe each such condition and, if applicable, will state that, in the Company’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes 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 Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. 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 upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depository, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depository.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the principal amount of this Note called for redemption.

This Note will not be subject to, or have the benefit of, any sinking fund.

Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, if an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem this Note as described above, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, within 30 days following any HDI Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any HDI Change of Control (as defined below), but after public announcement by HDI (as defined below) of the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, an HDI Change of Control, a notice will be delivered to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice. Such date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may



be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the HDI Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

If any Change of Control Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all such Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee such Notes properly accepted together with a Company Officers’ Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased.

The Company will not be required to comply with the obligations relating to repurchasing the Notes if a third-party instead satisfies them.

The Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations applicable to the repurchase of the Notes. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such compliance.

If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes properly tender and do not validly withdraw such amount of the Notes in a Change of Control Offer, and the Company, or any third-party making an offer to purchase the Notes in connection with an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of the Company, purchase such amount of the Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, then the Company will have the right, upon notice described above, given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all (but not less than all) of the 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 as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date). If the redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day. For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the following terms will be applicable:




Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Notes cease to be rated an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an HDI Change of Control and (2) the first public announcement by Harley-Davidson, Inc. (“HDI”) of the intention of HDI to effect an HDI Change of Control (which 60-day period will be extended for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible downgrade of the rating of the notes of such series); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular HDI Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of HDI Change of Control Triggering Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or inform the Company in writing at the Company’s request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable HDI Change of Control (whether or not the applicable HDI Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). The Trustee has no obligation to monitor the ratings of the Notes for purposes of determining the occurrence of a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

Fitch” means Fitch Ratings, Inc. and its successors.

HDI Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of HDI or other Voting Stock into which the Voting Stock of HDI is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or
(2) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation or as a pledge for security purposes only), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of HDI and the assets of the subsidiaries of HDI, taken as a whole, to one or more “persons” (as that term is defined in the Indenture), other than HDI or one of its subsidiaries and other than any such transaction or series of related transactions where holders of Voting Stock of HDI outstanding immediately prior thereto hold voting stock of the transferee person representing a majority of the voting power of the transferee person’s voting stock immediately after giving effect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to be an HDI Change of Control if (1) HDI becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of HDI immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company. “HDI Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both an HDI Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no HDI Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular HDI Change of Control unless and until such HDI Change of Control has actually been consummated.




Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Moody’s), BBB− by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) and BBB− by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Fitch), and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by the Company.

Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.

Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, and (2) if any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (or in each case any replacement thereof appointed pursuant to this definition) ceases to rate the Notes or fails to make a rating of the Notes publicly available for reasons outside of the Company’s control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by the Company as a replacement agency for Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch, as the case may be; provided that the Company shall give notice of any such replacement to the Trustee.
S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc. and its successors. “Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), as of any date, the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.

In lieu of Section 5.05 of the Indenture, the following covenant shall apply:

Limitation on Liens. The Company and the Guarantor will not, nor will they permit any Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture) of the Company or the Guarantor to, issue or assume any Indebtedness (as defined in the Indenture) secured by a Lien (as defined in the Indenture) upon any Property (as defined in the Indenture) (now owned or hereinafter acquired) of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Indebtedness that the Notes (together with, if the Company or the Guarantor shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, apply if the aggregate amount of Indebtedness issued or assumed by the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries and so secured by Liens, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be subject to such restrictions, but not including Indebtedness permitted to be secured under clauses (i) through (xv) of the immediately following paragraph, does not at the time such secured Indebtedness is incurred exceed 15% of the applicable Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (as defined in the Indenture).

The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Indebtedness secured by:

Liens existing on the date of the original issuance of the Notes;



Liens on any Property of any company existing at the time such company becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, which Liens are not created in contemplation of such company becoming a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor;
Liens on any Property existing at the time such Property is acquired by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, or Liens to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such Property upon the acquisition of such Property by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor or to secure any Indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after, the later of the date of acquisition of such Property and the date such Property is placed in service, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof, or Liens to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing the cost to the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor of improvements to such acquired Property or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the cost of construction of the Property subject to such Liens;

Liens created in connection with a securitization or other asset-based financing;
Liens with respect to the payment of taxes, assessments or governmental charges in all cases which are not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;
statutory Liens of landlords and Liens of suppliers, mechanics, carriers, materialmen, warehousemen or workmen and other similar Liens imposed by law created in the ordinary course of business for amounts not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;
Liens incurred or deposits made in the ordinary course of business in connection with worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance or other types of social security benefits or to secure the performance of bids, tenders, sales, contracts (other than for the repayment of borrowed money), surety, appeal and performance bonds;
Liens arising with respect to zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, covenants, rights-of-way, utility easements, building restrictions and other similar charges or encumbrances on the use of real property which do not interfere with the ordinary conduct of the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
Liens of attachment or judgment with respect to judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
Liens arising from leases, subleases or licenses granted to others which do not interfere in any material respect with the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
any interest or title of the lessor in the Property subject to any operating lease (as determined in accordance with GAAP as in effect as of December 1, 2018), entered into by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;
Liens, if any, in connection with any sale/leaseback transaction;
Liens on assets pledged in respect of Indebtedness that has been redeemed, defeased and/or discharged in accordance with the provisions thereof through the deposit of cash, cash



equivalents or marketable securities (it being understood that cash collateral shall be deemed to include cash deposited with a trustee with respect to third party indebtedness); and
any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) - (xiv); provided, however, that such new Lien is limited to the Property (or type of Property) which was subject to the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement, and provided, further, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased.

In lieu of Section 7.01(f) and Section 7.01(i) of the Indenture, each of the following, respectively, shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes:

(f) any event of default by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries as defined in any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any Indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, whether such Indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, resulting in such Indebtedness in a principal amount of at least $150,000,000 becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable, and such acceleration shall not be rescinded or annulled within a period of 30 days after there has been given, by overnight courier, registered or certified mail, to the Company and the Guarantor by the Trustee or to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture; and

(i) final judgment of money in excess of $150,000,000 (not covered by third-party insurance), singularly or in the aggregate, shall be rendered against the Company or the Guarantor or any of their respective Material Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) and shall remain undischarged and unstayed for a period (during which execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days after such judgment becomes final.

The Company may “reopen” a previously issued tranche of Notes and issue additional Notes of such tranche or establish additional terms of such tranche or issue notes with the same terms as previously issued Notes (except for the Original Issue Date, Issue Price and, if applicable, the initial Interest Payment Date).

The Company may at any time purchase this Note at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may be held or resold or, at the discretion of the Company, may be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.

For the avoidance of doubt, Article Thirteen of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.




This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

By acceptance of this Note, the Holder hereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Indenture. Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture. Facsimile signatures for the purposes of the Indenture are intended to include electronic signatures (including DocuSign). This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture.

None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any benchmark or floating rate note index, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any benchmark transition event or related benchmark replacement date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index or basis, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or
(iv) to determine whether or what benchmark replacement conforming changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, paying agent and Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith.

None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth herein as a result of the unavailability of any benchmark or index or other applicable benchmark replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms hereof and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Company’s actions or omissions or for those of the Company’s designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Company or its designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, paying agent or Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the Company’s performance or that of its designee.

Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc., a corporation duly organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the Principal Amount specified above, as revised by the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Global Note attached hereto, on the Maturity Date specified above and to pay to the registered holder of this Note (the “Holder”) interest on said Principal Amount at a rate per annum specified above and upon the terms provided below under either the heading “Provisions Applicable to Fixed Rate Notes Only” or “Provisions Applicable to Floating Rate Notes Only.”

This Note is one of the Company’s duly authorized issue of notes in the series titled 6.50% Medium-Term Notes due 2028 (herein referred to as the “Notes”), all issued or to be issued under an indenture, dated as of December 18, 2020 (as may be supplemented from time to time, the “Indenture”), among the Company, Harley-Davidson Credit Corp. (the “Guarantor”) and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under



the Indenture), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the Guarantor and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes of this series are limited (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture) to the aggregate principal amount established from time to time by the Company’s Board of Directors (as defined in the Indenture). The Notes of this series may be issued at various times with different maturity dates and different principal repayment provisions, may bear interest at different rates and may otherwise vary, all as provided in the Indenture. The Notes of this series may be subject to redemption upon notice and in accordance with the provisions of this Note and the Indenture. The Company and the Guarantor may defease the Notes of this series in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

To secure the due and punctual payment of principal, any premium, any interest and Additional Amounts (as defined in the Indenture) on this Note by the Company under the Indenture, when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Maturity Date, by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption or otherwise, the Guarantor has unconditionally guaranteed this Note pursuant to the terms of the Guarantee endorsed hereon and in Article Sixteen of the Indenture (the “Guarantee”).

As used herein, the term “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the City of New York; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above, the day is also not a day on which commercial banks are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the Principal Financial Center (as defined below) of the country issuing such Specified Currency or, if such Specified Currency is the Euro, the day is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET) System is open.

Principal Financial Center” means, unless otherwise provided in this Note, the capital city of the country issuing the Specified Currency; except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, South African rand and Swiss francs, the “Principal Financial Center” will be the City of New York, Sydney and (solely in the case of the Specified Currency) Melbourne, Toronto, Johannesburg and Zurich, respectively.

Provisions Applicable To Fixed Rate Notes Only:

If the “Fixed Rate” line above is checked, unless otherwise specified above, the Company will pay interest semiannually on March 10 and September 10 of each year (each such date fixed for the payment of interest, an “Interest Payment Date”) commencing on September 10, 2023, and ending on the Maturity Date or upon earlier redemption or repayment to the person to whom principal is payable. Interest shall accrue from the Original Issue Date, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for on this Note to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or earlier date of redemption or repayment, as the case may be. Interest on Fixed Rate Notes will be computed by the Company on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.

If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment) of this Fixed Rate Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment will be



made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.

Provisions Applicable To Floating Rate Notes Only:

If the “Floating Rate” line above is checked, the Company will pay interest on the Interest Payment Dates shown specified above at the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions hereinafter set forth under the headings “Determination of CD Rate,” “Determination of CMT Rate,” “Determination of Commercial Paper Rate,” “Determination of Federal Funds Rate,” “Determination of Prime Rate” or “Determination of Treasury Rate,” depending on whether the Interest Rate Basis is the CD Rate, the CMT Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, the Prime Rate, the Treasury Rate or other Interest Rate Basis.

An interest payment shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date, or from and including the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, to, but excluding, the next following Interest Payment Date, Maturity Date, or date of earlier redemption or repayment, as the case may be (an “Interest Period”). Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified above.

If any Interest Payment Date for any Floating Rate Note, other than an Interest Payment Date at maturity, would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be the following day that is a Business Day, and interest will continue to accrue to the following Business Day. If the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) of any Floating Rate Note would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest and principal (and premium, if any) may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment).

Commencing with the first Interest Reset Date specified above following the Original Issue Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable shall be adjusted daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above under “Interest Reset Dates.”

The interest rate borne by this Note will be determined as follows:

Unless the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” or an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” or in the event either “Other Provisions” or an Addendum hereto applies, in each case, relating to a different interest rate formula, this Note shall be designated as a “Regular Floating Rate Note” and, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any; in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the



interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate.

If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases (a) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that (y) the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate and (z) the interest rate in effect for the period commencing on, and including, the Fixed Rate Commencement Date specified above to the Maturity Date (or date of earlier redemption or repayment) shall be the Fixed Interest Rate specified above or, if no Fixed Interest Rate is so specified, the interest rate in effect on the day immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.

If the Interest Category of this Note is specified above as an “Inverse Floating Rate Note” then, except as set forth below or specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, this Note shall bear interest at (a) the Fixed Interest Rate specified above minus (b) the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases:

plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or
multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, in each case as specified above;

provided, however, that, unless otherwise specified above under “Other Provisions” or in an Addendum hereto, the interest rate hereon shall not be less than zero. Commencing on the Initial Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note shall be payable shall be reset on each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate set forth above.

The “Spread” is the number of basis points (one basis point equals one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified above to be added to or subtracted from the Interest Rate Basis for a Floating Rate Note, and the “Spread Multiplier” is the percentage specified above by which the Interest Rate Basis for such Floating Rate Note will be multiplied. Both a Spread and/or a Spread Multiplier may be applicable to the Interest Rate Basis for a particular Floating Rate Note, as set forth above.

Each such adjusted Interest Rate Basis shall be applicable on and after the Interest Reset Date to which it relates but not including the next succeeding Interest Reset Date. If any Interest Reset Date is a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day. In addition, if the Treasury Rate is the applicable Interest Rate Basis and the Interest Determination Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day. Subject to



applicable provisions of law (including usury laws) and except as specified in this Note, on each Interest Reset Date, the rate of interest on this Note shall be the rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading below.

With respect to a Floating Rate Note, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal amount thereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors calculated for each day in the Interest Period or from the last date from which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day is computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the cases of CD Rate Notes, Commercial Paper Rate Notes, Federal Funds Rate Notes and Prime Rate Notes or by the actual number of days in the year, in the cases of CMT Rate Notes and Treasury Rate Notes. The interest rate applicable to any day that is an Interest Reset Date will be the interest rate effective on such Interest Reset Date. The interest rate applicable to any other day will be the interest rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate, as specified above).

The “Calculation Date,” where applicable, pertaining to an Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or the date of earlier redemption or repayment), as the case may be.

For Floating Rate Notes, Citibank, N.A. shall be the calculation agent unless another calculation agent is specified above (the “Calculation Agent”). As Calculation Agent, Citibank, N.A. shall have all of the rights, protections, immunities and indemnities provided to it as Trustee under the Indenture, unless a calculation agency agreement is entered into, in which case, such agreement would control. The interest rate applicable to each interest period will be determined by the Calculation Agent on or prior to the applicable Calculation Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.

All percentages resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on a Floating Rate Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent (.0000001), with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on Floating Rate Notes will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward).

Determination of CD Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CD Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CD Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CD Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15(519) (as defined below) on such CD Interest Determination Date under the heading “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15 Daily Update (as defined below), or other



recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “CDs (secondary market).” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the CD Rate shall be the rate on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent on the Notes as the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date, of three leading non-bank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit in the City of New York (which may include an agent or its affiliates) selected by the Company for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit of major United States money market banks with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above in an amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. If the dealers selected by the Company as provided in the preceding sentence are not quoting as mentioned in such sentence, the CD Rate shall be the CD Rate in effect on the applicable CD Interest Determination Date.

H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the world-wide-web site of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System at http://www.federalreserve.gov/releases/h15/update, or any successor site or publication.

Determination of CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the CMT Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “CMT Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “CMT Interest Determination Date”) and shall be, if “CMT Reuters Page FRBCMT” is specified above, the percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor or similar service), on page FRBCMT (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities”) (“Reuters Page FRBCMT”). If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FRBCMT, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date for the period of the Index Maturity specified above, as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate which would otherwise have been published in H.15(519). In the event the rate referred to in the preceding sentence is not published, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates (each a “Reference Dealer”), selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the



event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to in the above sentence are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated; provided, however, that if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the highest and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. However, if fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If the CMT Reuters Page FEDCMT is specified above, the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, and will be the average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as the yield is displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDCMT (or any other page as may replace that specified page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDCMT”), for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear on Reuters Page FEDCMT, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be a percentage equal to the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, and for the week or month, as applicable, preceding the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date as published in H.15(519) opposite the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities.” If the rate referred to in the preceding sentence does not appear in H.15(519), then the CMT Rate for such CMT Interest Determination Date will be the one-week or one-month, as specified above, average yield for United States Treasury securities at “constant maturity” having the Index Maturity specified above, as otherwise announced by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York for the week or month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as applicable, in which the related CMT Interest Determination Date falls. If the Federal Reserve Bank of New York does not publish the rate referred to above, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices at approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation (or, in the



event of equality, one of the highest), and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity equal to the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity no more than one year shorter than the Index Maturity specified above, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two of the prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations shall be eliminated. If fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent as a yield-to-maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date of three Reference Dealers selected by the Company (from five Reference Dealers selected by the Company and eliminating the highest quotation or (in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest)), for United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity specified above, and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above and will be in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in the market at that time. If fewer than five but more than two prices referred to above are provided as requested, the rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent based on the arithmetic mean of the bid prices obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of the quotations will be eliminated, or if fewer than three prices referred to above are provided as requested, the CMT Rate will be the CMT Rate in effect on the applicable CMT Interest Determination Date. If two United States Treasury securities with an original maturity greater than the Index Maturity as specified above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Index Maturity specified above, the quotes for the United States Treasury security with the shorter original remaining term to maturity will be used.

Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Commercial Paper Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Commercial Paper Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the second Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the Money Market Yield (as defined below) on such date of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity as indicated above, as such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial.” If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published as provided in the preceding sentence, then the Commercial Paper Rate on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of United States dollar commercial paper in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s



affiliates, selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, placed for industrial issuers whose bond rating is “Aa,” or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized statistical rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on the applicable Commercial Paper Interest Determination Date.

Money Market Yield” shall be a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:
Money market yield =Dx360x10
360 - (DxM)

where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal; and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to the Federal Funds Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Federal Funds Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Federal Funds Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate on that date for United States dollar Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Federal Funds (Effective),” as displayed on Reuters, Inc. (or any successor service) on page FEDFUND01 (or any other page as may replace the applicable page on that service) (“Reuters Page FEDFUND01”) or, if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page FEDFUND01, or is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the rate on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date for United States dollar Federal Funds will be the rate on such Federal Funds Interest Determination Date as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight United States dollar Federal Funds arranged by three leading brokers of United States dollar Federal Funds transactions in the City of New York, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, selected by the Company before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if the brokers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Federal Funds Rate will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination Date.

Determination of Prime Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to, the Prime Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Prime Rate” with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the first Business Day prior to such Interest Reset Date (a “Prime Interest Determination Date”) and shall be the rate set forth on such date as published in H.15(519) under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate. will be as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source used for the



purpose of displaying the applicable rate under the caption “Bank Prime Loan,” or if not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Prime Interest Determination Date, then the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page (as defined below) as the particular bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates are so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date as shown on the Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page for the Prime Interest Determination Date, the Prime Rate will be determined by the Calculation Agent as the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year as of the close of business on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date by three major banks, which may include an agent of the Company or such agent’s affiliates, in the City of New York selected by the Company. However, if the banks selected by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in the preceding sentence, the Prime Rate will be the Prime Rate in effect on the applicable Prime Interest Determination Date.

Reuters Screen US PRIME 1 Page” means the display on the Reuter Money 3000 Service or any successor service on the “US PRIME 1 Page” or other page as may replace US PRIME 1 Page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks.

Determination of Treasury Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis, as specified above, is, or is calculated by reference to the Treasury Rate, unless otherwise specified above, the “Treasury Rate” for each Interest Reset Date will be the rate from the auction held on the applicable Interest Determination Date (the “Auction”) of direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury Bills”) having the Index Maturity, as specified above, as published under the caption “INVESTMENT RATE” on the display on Reuters, Inc. or any successor or similar service on page USAUCTION 10 or any other page as may replace page USAUCTION 10 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 10”) or page USAUCTION 11 on that service (“Reuters Page USAUCTION 11”), or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date (as defined below), the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate for the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury Bills announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or, if the rate is not announced by the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the Auction is not held, the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of Treasury Bills having the Index Maturity specified above, published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market,” or, if the rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date pertaining to such Treasury Rate Determination Date, the rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date of the applicable Treasury Bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.” In the event that the results of the auction of Treasury Bills having the applicable Index Maturity specified above are not published



or reported, as provided above, by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Calculation Date or if no such auction is held on such Treasury Rate Determination Date, then the Treasury Rate on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three primary United States government securities dealers, which may include the agent or its affiliates, selected by the Company, for the issue of Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified above; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Company are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the Treasury Rate will be the Treasury Rate in effect on the applicable Treasury Rate Determination Date.

The “Treasury Rate Determination Date” for any Interest Reset Date will be the day of the week in which such Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury Bills would normally be auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except such auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Rate Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Date occurring in the next succeeding week.

Bond Equivalent Yield” means a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:
Bond Equivalent Yield =DxNx10
360 - (DxM)

where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal; “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.

Provisions Applicable To Both Fixed Rate Notes And Floating Rate Notes:

The interest so payable on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions in the Indenture hereinafter referred to, be paid to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date (as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date or, if the Interest Payment Date is the Maturity Date or the date of earlier redemption or repayment, to the person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Maturity Date or such earlier date of redemption or repayment; provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date is between a Regular Record Date and an Interest Payment Date or on an Interest Payment Date, interest for the period from and including the Original Issue Date to, but excluding, the Interest Payment Date relating to such Regular Record Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the person in whose name this Note is registered on the close of business on the Regular Record Date preceding such Interest Payment Date. If this Note bears interest at a Fixed Rate, as specified above, unless otherwise specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date shall be the 28th day of February and the 31st day of August, whether or not a Business Day, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date. If this Note bears interest at a Floating Rate, as specified above, the “Regular Record Date” with respect to any Interest Payment Date



shall be the fifteenth calendar day next preceding such Interest Payment Date, whether or not such date shall be a Business Day.

Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note due on the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note; provided, however, that if a Specified Currency is specified above and such payment is to be made in such Specified Currency in accordance with the provisions set forth below, such payment will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account with a bank designated by the Holder hereof at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date or such earlier redemption or repayment date, as the case may be, provided that such bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that this Note is presented and surrendered at the Place of Payment specified above in time for the Trustee to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, other than the Maturity Date or any earlier redemption or repayment date, will be made at the Place of Payment specified above.

Whenever in this Note or in the Indenture there is a reference, in any context, to the payment of the principal of, or interest, if any, on, or in respect of, the Notes, such payment shall be deemed to include the payment of Additional Amounts to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect of such payment pursuant to the provisions hereof or thereof and express mention of the payment of Additional Amounts (if applicable) in any provision hereof or thereof shall not be construed as excluding Additional Amounts in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made.

The Company is obligated to make payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of this Note in United States dollars or, if a Specified Currency is indicated above, in such Specified Currency (or, if such Specified Currency is not at the time of such payment legal tender for the payment of public and private debts of the country issuing such currency or, in the case of the Euro, in the member states of the European Union that have adopted the single currency in accordance with the Treaty Establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union, such other currency which is then such legal tender in such country or in the adopting member states of the European Union, as the case may be). If a Specified Currency is specified above, except as otherwise provided below, any such amounts so payable by the Company will be converted by a New York clearing house bank designated by the Company (the “Exchange Rate Agent”) into United States dollars for payment to the Holder of this Note.

If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive any amount payable hereunder in such Specified Currency. If the Holder of this Note shall not have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, any United States dollar amount to be received by the Holder of this Note will be based on the highest bid quotation in the City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the Company for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for United States dollars for settlement on such payment date in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to all Holders of Notes



scheduled to receive United States dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holder of this Note by deductions from such payments. If three such bid quotations are not available, payments on this Note will be made in the Specified Currency.

If a Specified Currency is specified above, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency by submitting a written request for such payment to the Trustee at the Place of Payment on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be. Such written request may be mailed or hand delivered or sent by facsimile transmission. The Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a specified portion of all future payments in the Specified Currency in respect of such principal, premium, if any, and/or interest and need not file a separate election for each payment. Such election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee, but written notice of any such revocation must be received by the Trustee on or prior to the applicable Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be.

If a Specified Currency is specified above and the Holder of this Note shall have duly made an election to receive all or a specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest in respect of this Note in such Specified Currency, but such Specified Currency is not available for such payment due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the Holder of this Note by making such payment in United States dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the second Business Day prior to such payment date or, if such Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate on or before the date on which such payment is due. The “Market Exchange Rate” for the Specified Currency means the noon dollar buying rate in the City of New York for cable transfers of the Specified Currency as certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. Any payment made in United States dollars under such circumstances shall not constitute an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture).

All determinations referred to above made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of this Note.

In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal amount (or, if the Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, such lesser portion of the principal amount as may be applicable) of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable, and, with respect to certain Events of Default, shall automatically become due and payable, in each case in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note, in the event of an acceleration of the Maturity Date hereof, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note upon such acceleration will be determined by this Note but will be an amount less than the amount payable at the Maturity Date of this Note.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the Guarantor and the rights of the Holders of the



Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Guarantor with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities (as defined in the Indenture) of each series to be affected by such modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Debt Securities of each series, on behalf of the Holders of all Debt Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company and the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.

This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof or other Authorized Denomination specified above.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered in the Debt Security Register (as defined in the Indenture) of this series upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the Place of Payment specified above, duly endorsed by or accompanied by, a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Trustee, duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new Note or Notes of this series of Authorized Denomination and for the same aggregate principal amount, with the Guarantee endorsed thereon, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of the Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

The Trustee, and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered in the Debt Security Register as the owner of this Note for all purposes (other than for the determination of any Additional Amounts payable) and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Prior to February 10, 2028 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and 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:

the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed,

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.



On or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

If any redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company 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) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Company 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 the Par Call Date (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 the Par Call Date 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 H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Company 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, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Company shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company 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 Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall have no responsibility in calculating the redemption price.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depository’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to the Holder hereof in accordance with Section 15.03 of the Indenture, except that redemption notices may be provided more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the Notes and/or the Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, notice of any redemption to the Holder hereof may, in the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a corporate transaction. In such event, the related notice of redemption will describe each such condition and, if applicable, will state that, in the Company’s discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes 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 Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. 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 upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by the Depository, the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depository.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the redemption price on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the principal amount of this Note called for redemption.

This Note will not be subject to, or have the benefit of, any sinking fund.
Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, if an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem this Note as described above, the Company will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Notes on the terms set forth herein. In the Change of Control Offer, the Company will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).



Subject to Article Thirteen of the Indenture, within 30 days following any HDI Change of Control Triggering Event or, at the Company’s option, prior to any HDI Change of Control (as defined below), but after public announcement by HDI (as defined below) of the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, an HDI Change of Control, a notice will be delivered to Holders of the Notes describing the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase such Notes on the date specified in the notice. Such date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the HDI Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

If any Change of Control Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all such Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee such Notes properly accepted together with a Company Officers’ Certificate (as defined in the Indenture) stating the aggregate principal amount of such Notes or portions of Notes being repurchased.

The Company will not be required to comply with the obligations relating to repurchasing the Notes if a third-party instead satisfies them.

The Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations applicable to the repurchase of the Notes. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes by virtue of any such compliance.

If Holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes properly tender and do not validly withdraw such amount of the Notes in a Change of Control Offer, and the Company, or any third-party making an offer to purchase the Notes in connection with an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of the Company, purchase such amount of the Notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such Holders, then the Company will have the right, upon notice described above, given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all (but not less than all) of the 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 as of the close of business on the relevant Regular



Record Date to receive interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date). If the redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next Business Day.

For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the Notes, the following terms will be applicable:

Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the Notes cease to be rated an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an HDI Change of Control and (2) the first public announcement by Harley-Davidson, Inc.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to be an HDI Change of Control if (1) HDI becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of HDI immediately prior to that



transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

HDI Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both an HDI Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

The Company and the Guarantor will not, nor will they permit any Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture) of the Company or the Guarantor to, issue or assume any Indebtedness (as defined in the Indenture) secured by a Lien (as defined in the Indenture) upon any Property (as defined in the Indenture) (now owned or hereinafter acquired) of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Indebtedness that the Notes (together with, if the Company or the Guarantor shall so determine, any other Indebtedness of the Company or the Guarantor or any such Subsidiary ranking equally with the Notes then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, apply if the aggregate amount of Indebtedness issued or assumed by the Company, the Guarantor or such Subsidiaries and so secured by Liens, together with all other Indebtedness of the Company, the



Guarantor or such Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be subject to such restrictions, but not including Indebtedness permitted to be secured under clauses (i) through (xv) of the immediately following paragraph, does not at the time such secured Indebtedness is incurred exceed 15% of the applicable Consolidated Net Tangible Assets (as defined in the Indenture).

The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Indebtedness secured by:

Liens existing on the date of the original issuance of the Notes;
Liens on any Property of any company existing at the time such company becomes a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, which Liens are not created in contemplation of such company becoming a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor;
Liens on any Property existing at the time such Property is acquired by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor, or Liens to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such Property upon the acquisition of such Property by the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor or to secure any Indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after, the later of the date of acquisition of such Property and the date such Property is placed in service, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof, or Liens to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing the cost to the Company, the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor of improvements to such acquired Property or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the cost of construction of the Property subject to such Liens;
Liens securing any Indebtedness of the Company, a Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor owing to the Company, the Guarantor or to another Subsidiary of the Company or the Guarantor;
Liens created in connection with a securitization or other asset-based financing;
Liens with respect to the payment of taxes, assessments or governmental charges in all cases which are not yet due or which are being contested in good faith; statutory Liens of landlords and Liens of suppliers, mechanics, carriers, materialmen, warehousemen or workmen and other similar Liens imposed by law created in the ordinary course of business for amounts not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;
Liens incurred or deposits made in the ordinary course of business in connection with worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance or other types of social security benefits or to secure the performance of bids, tenders, sales, contracts (other than for the repayment of borrowed money), surety, appeal and performance bonds;
Liens arising with respect to zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, covenants, rights-of-way, utility easements, building restrictions and other similar charges or encumbrances on the use of real property which do not interfere with the ordinary conduct of the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;
Liens of attachment or judgment with respect to judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process against the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries;



Liens arising from leases, subleases or licenses granted to others which do not interfere in any material respect with the business of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries; any interest or title of the lessor in the Property subject to any operating lease (as determined in accordance with GAAP as in effect as of December 1, 2018), entered into by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;
Liens, if any, in connection with any sale/leaseback transaction;
Liens on assets pledged in respect of Indebtedness that has been redeemed, defeased and/or discharged in accordance with the provisions thereof through the deposit of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities (it being understood that cash collateral shall be deemed to include cash deposited with a trustee with respect to third party indebtedness); and any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (i) - (xiv); provided, however, that such new Lien is limited to the Property (or type of Property) which was subject to the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement, and provided, further, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased.

In lieu of Section 7.01(f) and Section 7.01(i) of the Indenture, each of the following, respectively, shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes:

(f) any event of default by the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries as defined in any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any Indebtedness of the Company, the Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries, as the case may be, whether such Indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created, resulting in such Indebtedness in a principal amount of at least $150,000,000 becoming or being declared due and payable prior to the date on which it would otherwise become due and payable, and such acceleration shall not be rescinded or annulled within a period of 30 days after there has been given, by overnight courier, registered or certified mail, to the Company and the Guarantor by the Trustee or to the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” under the Indenture; and

(i) final judgment of money in excess of $150,000,000 (not covered by third-party insurance), singularly or in the aggregate, shall be rendered against the Company or the Guarantor or any of their respective Material Subsidiaries (as defined in the Indenture) and shall remain undischarged and unstayed for a period (during which execution shall not be effectively stayed) of 60 days after such judgment becomes final.

The Company may “reopen” a previously issued tranche of Notes and issue additional Notes of such tranche or establish additional terms of such tranche or issue notes with the same terms as previously issued Notes (except for the Original Issue Date, Issue Price and, if applicable, the initial Interest Payment Date).
The Company may at any time purchase this Note at any price in the open market or otherwise. Notes so purchased by the Company may be held or resold or, at the discretion of the Company, may be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation.




For the avoidance of doubt, Article Thirteen of the Indenture shall apply to the Notes.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations of the Company and the Guarantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed.

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

By acceptance of this Note, the Holder hereof agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Indenture. Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture. Facsimile signatures for the purposes of the Indenture are intended to include electronic signatures (including DocuSign). This Note shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture.

None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (i) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any benchmark or floating rate note index, or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any benchmark transition event or related benchmark replacement date, (ii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index or basis, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, or (iii) to select, determine or designate any benchmark replacement adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (iv) to determine whether or what benchmark replacement conforming changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, paying agent and Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith.

None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth herein as a result of the unavailability of any benchmark or index or other applicable benchmark replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms hereof and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, the paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Company’s actions or omissions or for those of the Company’s designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by the Company or its designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, paying agent or Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the Company’s performance or that of its designee.

Payment of Principal, Premium, if any, and Interest
Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Harley-Davidson Credit Corp.
[Certain identified information has been excluded from this document because it is both not material and is the type that the registrant treats as private or confidential.]
[Information omitted]


























The date of this pricing supplement is March 7, 2023

[Information omitted]





DESCRIPTION OF NOTES

In this section, “we,” “us,” and “our” refer only to Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc. and not any of its subsidiaries. Unless the context requires otherwise, “Harley-Davidson” refers to Harley-Davidson, Inc., our parent company, “HDI” refers to Harley-Davidson and its subsidiaries as a whole, and the “Guarantor” refers to Harley-Davidson Credit Corp., our primary operating subsidiary.

General

We are offering $700,000,000 aggregate principal amount of our 6.50% Medium-Term Notes due 2028 (the “notes”). The notes will be our unsecured senior obligations, ranking equal in right of payment to all of our unsecured and unsubordinated debt from time to time outstanding. The notes will be effectively subordinated to all of our existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of our assets securing such debt. As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately $3.65 billion of unsecured and unsubordinated debt outstanding and, except for secured notes that we issued through variable interest entities (“VIEs”),
no secured debt.

Principal and Maturity

The notes will be limited initially in aggregate principal amount to $700,000,000. We may, without the consent of the holders of the notes, create and issue additional notes ranking equally with the notes offered in this pricing supplement and otherwise similar in all respects (except the issue date, issue price and, if applicable, the initial interest payment date and the date from which interest shall begin to accrue); provided, however, that any additional notes that form a single series of notes with the notes offered hereby must be fungible with such previously issued and outstanding notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We may also issue additional notes that may have different terms than the notes offered in this pricing supplement.

We will issue the notes in fully registered form without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The notes will mature on March 10, 2028.

Interest

Interest on the notes will accrue at the rate of 6.50% per annum. Interest on the notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 10 and September 10 of each year, beginning on September 10, 2023. We will make each interest payment to the holders of record of the notes on the February 28 and August 31 immediately preceding the related interest payment date.

Interest on the notes will accrue from September 10, 2023. Interest will be computed by us on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In any case where an interest payment date is not a business day, the interest payment date will be postponed to the next succeeding business day and no interest on such payment will accrue for the period from and after such interest payment date.




Payments on the Notes

All principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the notes will be payable at our office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York maintained for this purpose. Initially, payments will be made at the corporate trust office of the trustee. Payments of principal and interest on the notes will be made in funds which are available the same day. The notes will trade in the same day funds settlement system of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) until maturity, and secondary market trading activity for the notes will therefore settle in same day funds.

Transfer and Exchange

You may transfer or exchange the notes in accordance with the indenture. The transfer or exchange may be made at our office or agency in the Borough of Manhattan, the City of New York maintained for this purpose, which will initially be the corporate trust office of the trustee. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of notes, except in certain circumstances for any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed.
The registered holder of a note will be treated as the owner of that note for all purposes.

Optional Redemption

Prior to February 10, 2028 (one month prior to their maturity date) (the “Par Call Date”), we may redeem the notes at our option, in whole or in part, at any time and 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:

(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the redemption date (assuming the notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points less

(b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

On or after the Par Call Date, we may redeem the notes, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.

If any redemption date falls on a day that is not a business day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next business day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next business day.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the yield determined by us in accordance with the following two paragraphs.



The Treasury Rate shall be determined by us 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) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, we 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 the Par Call Date (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 the Par Call Date 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 H.15 TCM is no longer published, we 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, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, we shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, we 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.

Our actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The trustee shall have no responsibility in calculating the redemption price.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of notes to be redeemed, except that redemption



notices may be provided more than 60 days prior to the redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with the defeasance or discharge of the notes and/or the indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, notice of any redemption to the holders of the notes may, in our discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including completion of a corporate transaction. In such event, the related notice of redemption will describe each such condition and, if applicable, will state that, in our discretion, the date of redemption may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied or waived, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or waived by the date of redemption, or by the date of redemption as so delayed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or pursuant to applicable depositary procedures. No notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. 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 original note will be issued in the name of the holder of the note upon surrender for cancellation of the original note. For so long as the notes are held by DTC, Euroclear Bank SA/NV or Clearstream Banking S.A., (or another depositary), the redemption of the notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.

Unless we default 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.

Except as set forth above, the notes will not be redeemable by us prior to maturity and will not be subject to, or have the benefit of, a sinking fund.

In addition to the foregoing, we may at any time and from time to time purchase notes in the open market or otherwise, subject to compliance with all applicable securities laws.

Offer to Purchase Upon HDI Change of Control Triggering Event

If an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless we have previously or concurrently delivered a redemption notice with respect to all of the outstanding notes as described above under “—Optional Redemption,” we will be required to make an offer (the “Change of Control Offer”) to each holder of the notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such holder’s notes on the terms set forth in the notes. In the Change of Control Offer, we will be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase (the “Change of Control Payment”).

Within 30 days following any HDI Change of Control Triggering Event or, at our option, prior to any HDI Change of Control, but after public announcement by HDI of the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, an HDI Change of Control, a notice will be delivered to holders of the notes describing the transaction that constitutes, or would constitute upon consummation thereof, the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to repurchase the notes on the date specified in the notice. Such



date will be no earlier than 10 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is delivered, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control Payment Date”). The notice will, if delivered prior to the date of consummation of the HDI Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on the HDI Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

If any Change of Control Payment Date falls on a day that is not a business day, the related payment of the Change of Control Payment will be made on the next business day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next business day.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, we will, to the extent lawful, (i) accept for payment all notes or portions of notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Change of Control Offer, (ii) deposit with the paying agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all notes or portions of notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the trustee the notes properly accepted, together with an officer’s certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of notes or portions of notes being repurchased.

We will not be required to comply with the obligations relating to repurchasing the notes if a third-party instead satisfies them.

We must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations applicable to the repurchase of the notes. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the change of control offer provisions of the notes, we will comply with those securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the change of control offer provisions of the notes by virtue of any such compliance.

If holders of not less than 95% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes properly tender and do not validly withdraw such notes in a Change of Control Offer, and we, or any third-party making an offer to purchase the notes in connection with an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event in lieu of us, purchase all of the notes properly tendered and not validly withdrawn by such holders, then we will have the right, upon notice given not more than 30 days following the Change of Control Payment Date, to redeem all (but not less than all) of the 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 as of the close of business on the relevant record date to receive interest on the applicable interest payment date). If the redemption date falls on a day that is not a business day, the related payment of the redemption price and interest will be made on the next business day as if it were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next business day. If a Change of Control Offer is made, there can be no assurance that we or the Guarantor will have available funds sufficient to make the Change of Control Payment for all of the notes that may be tendered for repurchase.




For purposes of the Change of Control Offer provisions of the notes, the following terms will be applicable:

“Below Investment Grade Rating Event” means the notes cease to be rated an Investment Grade Rating by each of the Rating Agencies on any day within the 60-day period after the earlier of (1) the occurrence of an HDI Change of Control and (2) the first public announcement by HDI of the intention of HDI to effect an HDI Change of Control (which 60-day period will be extended for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible downgrade of the rating of the notes); provided that a Below Investment Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular HDI Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of HDI Change of Control Triggering Event) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or publicly confirm or inform us in writing at our request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable HDI Change of Control (whether or not the applicable HDI Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). The trustee has no obligation to monitor the ratings of the notes for purposes of determining the occurrence of a Below Investment Grade Rating Event.

“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings Inc. and its successors. “HDI Change of Control” means the occurrence of any of the following: (1) the consummation of any transaction (including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), other than Harley-Davidson or one of its subsidiaries, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson or other Voting Stock into which the Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson is reclassified, consolidated, exchanged or changed, measured by voting power rather than number of shares; or (2) the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation or as a pledge for security purposes only), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of Harley-Davidson and the assets of the subsidiaries of Harley- Davidson, taken as a whole, to one or more “persons” (as that term is defined in the indenture), other than Harley-Davidson or one of its subsidiaries and other than any such transaction or series of related transactions where holders of Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson outstanding immediately prior thereto hold voting stock of the transferee person representing a majority of the voting power of the transferee person’s voting stock immediately after giving effect thereto.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to be an HDI Change of Control if (1) Harley-Davidson becomes a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of Harley-Davidson immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.



“HDI Change of Control Triggering Event” means the occurrence of both an HDI Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Rating Event. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no HDI Change of Control Triggering Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular HDI Change of Control unless and until such HDI Change of Control has actually been consummated.

“Investment Grade Rating” means a rating equal to or higher than Baa3 by Moody’s (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Moody’s), BBB− by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of S&P) and BBB− by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating category of Fitch), and the equivalent investment grade credit rating from any replacement Rating Agency or Rating Agencies selected by us.

“Moody’s” means Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., a subsidiary of Moody’s Corporation, and its successors.

“Rating Agencies” means (1) each of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch and (2) if any of Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (or in each case any replacement thereof appointed pursuant to this definition) ceases to rate the notes or fails to make a rating of the notes publicly available for reasons outside of our control, a “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” as defined under Section 3(a)(62) of the Exchange Act selected by us as a replacement agency for Moody’s, S&P and/or Fitch, as the case may be; provided that we shall give notice of any such replacement to the trustee.

“S&P” means S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global Inc. and its successors.

“Voting Stock” means, with respect to any specified “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), as of any date, the capital stock of such person that is at the time entitled to vote generally in the election of the board of directors of such person.

The definition of HDI Change of Control includes a phrase relating to the direct or indirect sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition, in one or a series of related transactions, of “all or substantially all” of the assets of Harley-Davidson and the assets of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Although there is a limited body of case law interpreting the phrase “substantially all,” there is no precise established definition of such phrase under applicable law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of the notes to require us to repurchase that holder’s notes as a result of the sale, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of less than all of the assets of Harley-Davidson and the assets of its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to one or more persons may
be uncertain. Further, the terms of the notes may permit Harley-Davidson and us to engage in certain significant corporate events that would not constitute an “HDI Change of Control” that would require us to make an offer to repurchase the notes. Although a change in the composition of the Board of Directors of Harley-Davidson may be a consequence of events constituting an “HDI Change of Control” under the terms of the notes, changes in the composition of the Board of Directors of Harley-Davidson independent of any other triggering event will not alone constitute an “HDI Change of Control” under the terms of the notes.

Our obligation to purchase the notes following an HDI Change of Control Triggering Event is subject to the provisions described under the “Description of Notes—Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance” in the accompanying offering memorandum.




Covenants

The indenture governing the notes contains covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of the Guarantor to incur certain liens and to merge or consolidate. We have summarized certain of the terms and conditions of the notes below. This summary supplements the description of the general terms and conditions of the notes under the caption “Description of Notes—Certain Covenants” in the accompanying offering memorandum and, to the extent this summary is inconsistent with such description, replaces and supersedes such description. This summary of certain provisions applicable to the notes does not purport to be complete and is subject to all of the provisions of the indenture and the notes. You should read the indenture and the notes, copies of which are available from us upon request.

Limitation on Liens

As long as any of the notes are outstanding, neither we nor the Guarantor will, nor will we or it permit any of our or its respective Subsidiaries to, issue or assume any Indebtedness secured by a Lien upon any of our or its respective Property or the Property of our or its respective Subsidiaries without in any such case effectively providing concurrently with the issuance or assumption of any such Indebtedness that the notes (together with, if we or it, as applicable, shall so determine, any other of our or its Indebtedness or the Indebtedness of our or its respective Subsidiaries ranking equally with the notes then existing or thereafter created) shall be secured equally and ratably with such Indebtedness. The restrictions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will not, however, apply if the aggregate amount of Indebtedness issued or assumed by us or the Guarantor and our or its respective Subsidiaries and so secured by Liens, together with all other Indebtedness of us or the Guarantor and our or its respective Subsidiaries which (if originally issued or assumed at such time) would otherwise be subject to such restrictions, but not including Indebtedness permitted to be secured under clauses (1) through (15) of the immediately following paragraph, does not at the time such secured Indebtedness is incurred exceed 15% of the applicable Consolidated Net Tangible Assets.

The restrictions set forth above shall not apply to Indebtedness secured by:
Liens existing on the date of the original issuance of the notes;
Liens on any Property of any company existing at the time such company becomes a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor, which Liens are not created in contemplation of such company becoming a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;
Liens on any Property existing at the time such Property is acquired by us or the Guarantor or by a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor, or Liens to secure the payment of all or any part of the purchase price of such Property upon the acquisition of such Property by us or the Guarantor or a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor or to secure any Indebtedness incurred prior to, at the time of, or within 180 days after, the later of the date of acquisition of such Property and the date such Property is placed in service, for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price thereof, or Liens
to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing the cost to us or the Guarantor or to a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor of improvements to such acquired Property or to secure any Indebtedness incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price of the cost of construction of the Property subject to such Liens;




Liens securing any Indebtedness of us or a Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor owing to us or the Guarantor or to another Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;
Liens created in connection with a securitization or other asset-based financing;
Liens with respect to the payment of taxes, assessments or governmental charges in all cases which are not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;
statutory Liens of landlords and Liens of suppliers, mechanics, carriers, materialmen, warehousemen or workmen and other similar Liens imposed by law created in the ordinary course of business for amounts not yet due or which are being contested in good faith;
Liens incurred or deposits made in the ordinary course of business in connection with worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance or other types of social security benefits or to secure the performance of bids, tenders, sales, contracts (other than for the repayment of borrowed money), surety, appeal and performance bonds;
Liens arising with respect to zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, covenants, rights-of-way, utility easements, building restrictions and other similar charges or encumbrances on the use of real property which do not interfere with the ordinary conduct of the business of us or the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;
Liens of attachment or judgment with respect to judgments, writs or warrants of attachment, or similar process against us, the Guarantor or any of our or its respective Subsidiaries;
Liens arising from leases, subleases or licenses granted to others which do not interfere in any material respect with the business of us or the Guarantor or any Subsidiary of us or the Guarantor;
any interest or title of the lessor in the Property subject to any operating lease (as determined in accordance with GAAP as in effect as of December 1, 2018), entered into by us, the Guarantor or any of our or its respective Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business;
Liens, if any, in connection with any sale/leaseback transaction;
Liens on assets pledged in respect of Indebtedness that has been redeemed, defeased and/or discharged in accordance with the provisions thereof through the deposit of cash, cash equivalents or marketable securities (it being understood that cash collateral shall be deemed to include cash deposited with a trustee with respect to third party indebtedness); and any extension, renewal or replacement (or successive extensions, renewals or replacements) in whole or in part of any Lien referred to in the foregoing clauses (1)—(14); provided, however, that such new Lien is limited to the Property (or type of Property) which was subject to the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement, and provided, further, that the principal amount of Indebtedness secured by the prior Lien immediately before such extension, renewal or replacement is not increased.

Events of Default

The following constitute Events of Default with respect to the notes under the indenture:
neither we nor the Guarantor pays any interest upon or any additional amounts payable in respect of any interest on any of the notes when such interest or additional amounts become due and payable, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or neither we nor the Guarantor pays all or any part of the principal of and premium, if any, on, any of the notes as and when the same shall become due and payable either at maturity, upon any redemption, by declaration of acceleration or otherwise; or neither we nor the Guarantor pays or satisfies any sinking fund payment, if any, with respect to the notes as and when the same shall become due and payable by the terms of the notes, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; or we or the



Guarantor fails to perform or observe any covenant or agreement in the indenture or the notes (while such covenant or agreement is effective) and such failure shall continue uncured for more than thirty (30) days after there has been given to us and the Guarantor by the trustee or to us, the Guarantor and the trustee by holders of at least 25% in outstanding principal amount of the notes a written notice specifying such failure and requiring it to be remedied; or the support agreement shall have been terminated or revoked or Harley-Davidson refuses to perform or otherwise breaches any of its obligations contained in the support agreement, or the support agreement or any provision thereof otherwise becomes unenforceable for any reason unless, prior to such termination, revocation, refusal to perform, breach or unenforceability, each of Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s and any other nationally recognized statistical rating organization then rating the notes at our request confirms that the rating assigned to the notes by such rating agency immediately prior to such termination, revocation, refusal to perform, breach or unenforceability will not be downgraded as a result of such termination, revocation, refusal to perform, breach or unenforceability of the support agreement; or an event of default, as defined in any of our mortgages, indentures or instruments under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced, any of our or the Guarantor’s Indebtedness or any of our or its respective Subsidiaries’ Indebtedness that has resulted in the acceleration of such Indebtedness in a principal amount of at least $150,000,000, and such acceleration has not been rescinded or annulled within a period of 30 days after there has been given to us and the Guarantor by the trustee or to us, the Guarantor and the trustee by holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes a written notice specifying such default and requiring it to be remedied; or certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization involving us, the Guarantor or any of our or its respective Material Subsidiaries or, so long as the support agreement shall continue in full force and effect for the benefit of the notes, Harley-Davidson; or
one or more final judgments for the payment of money shall be rendered against us or the Guarantor or any of our or its respective Material Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount in excess of $150,000,000 (excluding the amount thereof covered by third-party insurance) and such judgment shall remain undischarged and unstayed for more than 60 days; or any other Event of Default provided in or pursuant to the indenture with respect to the notes.

If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default based on an event of our bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) shall occur and be continuing, either the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the notes outstanding may, by written notice to us and the Guarantor (and to the trustee if given by the holders), declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest and additional amounts, if any, on all notes outstanding to be immediately due and payable. Upon such a declaration, such principal, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest will be due and payable immediately, but upon certain conditions such declaration may be annulled and past defaults (except, unless theretofore cured, a default in payment of principal, premium or interest) may be waived by the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of notes then outstanding. If an Event of Default due to our bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization occurs, all unpaid principal, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the notes will automatically become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder.

In addition, in the event an Event of Default with respect to the notes occurs and is continuing, the trustee may, and shall, upon receipt (1) of a written direction from holders of not less than 25% aggregate principal amount of the notes outstanding, which direction shall include a certification on which the trustee may conclusively rely that we have not pursued, or are not



pursuing, our rights under the support agreement in a prompt or otherwise diligent manner, and (2) from such holders of indemnity satisfactory to the trustee against the cost, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such direction, enforce, on behalf of the holders and on its own behalf, the obligations of Harley-Davidson to us under the support agreement (an “Enforcement Event”). If (a) the trustee for 60 days after receipt of such request and offer of indemnity has failed to institute such enforcement action, (b) no direction inconsistent with such request has been given to the trustee during such 60-day period by the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes, and (c) a holder has given written notice of the occurrence of an Enforcement Event, then such holder of the outstanding notes shall have the right to enforce our rights under the support agreement.

Notice and Declaration of Defaults.

So long as the notes remain outstanding, we will be required to furnish annually to the trustee an officers’ certificate as to such officers’ knowledge of our and the Guarantor’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under the indenture, as determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided under the indenture. In addition, we will notify the trustee of any event of default or any event which, with notice or the lapse of time, would constitute an event of default, promptly after and in any case within five business days after one or more of our specified officers becomes aware of such event. We will also be required to furnish to the trustee copies of specified reports filed by us or the Guarantor with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). We or the Guarantor, as applicable, will be deemed to have delivered such filings on the date on which they are filed for public availability on the SEC’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System (or any successor system).

The indenture provides that the trustee will give to the holders of the notes notice of any default under the indenture as and to the extent provided by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. The trustee or the holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes may declare the notes immediately due and payable upon the occurrence of any event of default after expiration of any applicable grace period. In some cases, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes then outstanding may waive any past default and its consequences, except a default in the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on or additional amounts payable in respect of the notes, including sinking fund payments.

If a specified event of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law occurs and is continuing, then the principal amount of the outstanding notes and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any additional amounts, if any, with respect thereto will immediately become due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder.

Actions upon Default.

Subject to the provisions of the indenture relating to the duties of the trustee in case an event of default with respect to any issuance of notes occurs and is continuing, the indenture provides that the trustee will be under no obligation to exercise any of its rights or powers under the indenture at the request, order or direction of any of the holders of the notes outstanding unless the holders have offered to the trustee indemnity satisfactory to the trustee. The right of a



holder to institute a proceeding with respect to the indenture is subject to conditions precedent including notice and indemnity to the trustee.

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes outstanding in default will have the right to direct the time, method and place for conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee, or exercising any power or trust conferred on the trustee. Any direction by the holders will be in accordance with law and the provisions of the indenture. The trustee may decline to follow any such direction if the trustee determines, on the advice of counsel, that the action or proceeding may not be lawfully taken or would be materially and unjustly prejudicial to the rights of holders not joining in the direction or if the trustee determines that the action or proceeding would involve the trustee in personal liability or if the trustee determines that the actions or forbearances specified in or pursuant to such direction would be unduly prejudicial to the interests of holders of the notes of all series not joining in the giving of such direction, it being understood that the trustee will have no duty to ascertain whether or not such actions or forbearances are unduly prejudicial to such holders. The trustee will be under no obligation to act in accordance with the direction unless the holders offer the trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the trustee against costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred thereby.

For the purpose of determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, or stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of stockholders for any other proper purpose, the Board of Directors may fix in advance a date as the record date for any such determination of stockholders, such date in any case to be not more than sixty (60) days and, in case of a meeting of stockholders, not less than ten (10) days prior to the date on which the particular action requiring such determination of stockholders is to be taken. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining:

stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held;
stockholders entitled to express consent to a corporate action in writing without meeting shall be the day on which the first written consent is expressed; or
stockholders for any other purpose shall be the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

The officer having charge of the stock transfer books for shares of the corporation shall, at least ten (10) days before each meeting of stockholders, make a complete record of the stockholders entitled to vote at such meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, with the address of and the number of shares held by each. Such record shall be produced and kept open to the examination of any stockholders, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held as specified in the notice of the meeting or at the place of the meeting. The record shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholders present. The original stock transfer books shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine such record or transfer books or to vote at any meeting of stockholders.

Section 2.08 Quorum.

Except as otherwise provided in the certificate of incorporation, a majority of the shares entitled to vote, represented in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at a meeting of stockholders, but in no event shall less than one-third of the shares entitled to vote constitute a quorum. If a quorum is present, the affirmative vote of the majority of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the stockholders unless the vote of a greater number or voting by classes is required by law or the certificates of incorporation. Though less than a quorum of the outstanding shares



are represented at a meeting, a majority of the shares represented at a meeting which initially had a quorum may adjourn the meeting from time to time without further notice.

Unless otherwise provided in the proxy and supported by sufficient interest, a proxy may be revoked at any time before it is voted, either by written notice filed with the Secretary or the acting secretary of the meeting or by oral notice given by the stockholder to the presiding officer during the meeting. The presence of a stockholder who has filed a proxy shall not of itself constitute a revocation. No proxy shall be valid after three (3) years from the date of its execution, unless otherwise provided in the proxy. The Board of Directors shall have the power and authority to make rules establishing presumptions as to the validity and sufficiency of proxies.

Section 2.11 Voting of Shares.

Other Corporations. Shares standing in the name of another corporation may be voted either in person or by proxy, by the president of such corporation or any other officer appointed by such president. A proxy executed by any principal officer of such other corporation or assistant thereto shall be conclusive evidence of the signer's authority to act, in the absence of express notice to this corporation, given in writing to the Secretary of this corporation, of the designation of some other person by the board of directors or the bylaws of such other corporation.
Legal Representatives and Fiduciaries. Shares held by any administrator, executor, guardian, conservator, trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, or assignee for creditors may be voted by a duly executed proxy, without a transfer of such shares to his name. Shares standing in the name of a fiduciary may be voted by him, either in person or by proxy. A proxy executed by a fiduciary, shall be conclusive evidence of the signer's authority to act, in the absence of express notice to this corporation, given in writing to the Secretary of this corporation, that such manner of voting is expressly prohibited or otherwise directed by the document creating the fiduciary relationship.
Pledgees. A stockholder whose shares are pledged shall be entitled to vote such shares unless in the transfer of the shares the pledgor has expressly authorized the pledgee to vote the shares and thereafter the pledgee, or his proxy, shall be entitled to vote the shares so transferred.
Treasury Stock and Subsidiaries. Neither treasury shares, nor shares held by another corporation if a majority of the shares entitled to vote for the election of directors of such other corporation is held by this corporation, shall be voted at any meeting or counted in determining the total number



of outstanding shares entitled to vote, but shares of its own issue held by this corporation in a fiduciary capacity, or held by such other corporation in a fiduciary capacity, may be voted and shall be counted in determining the total number of outstanding shares entitled to vote.
Joint Holders. Shares of record in the names of two or more persons or shares to which two or more persons have the same fiduciary relationship, unless the Secretary of the corporation is given notice otherwise and furnished with a copy of the instrument creating the relationship, may be voted as follows: (i) if voted by an individual, his vote binds all holders; or (ii) if voted by more than one holder, the majority vote binds all, unless the vote is evenly split in which case the shares may be voted proportionately, or according to the ownership interest as shown in the instrument filed with the Secretary of the corporation.

Section 2.13 Waiver of Notice by Stockholders.

Whenever any notice whatever is required to be given to any stockholder of the corporation under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, a waiver thereof in writing, signed at any time, whether before or after the time of meeting, by the stockholder entitled to such notice, shall be deemed equivalent to the giving of such notice.
