Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth below, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee

Authorized Signatory

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note  is one of a series designated by the Company as its 4.850% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.

The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to February 15, 2021 (the “Par Call Date”), at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the Par Call Date (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 50 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. On and after the Par Call Date, the Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:

5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or


if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date).

Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

6

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.

For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.

The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.

8

The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).

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

OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the “Company,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the lesser of (i) the Principal Amount specified above and (ii) the Principal Amount set forth on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note attached hereto on the Maturity Date specified above (unless and to the extent earlier redeemed prior to such Maturity Date) and to pay interest thereon from July 15, 2019 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 in each year, commencing on January 15, 2020, at the rate per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note is one of a series designated by the Company as its 3.450% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.

The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to April 15, 2024 (the “Par Call Date”), at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the Par Call Date (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 15 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. On and after the Par Call Date, the Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:

5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or


if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.

Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date).

Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.

6

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.

In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.

For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

Authorized Signatory

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note is one of a series designated by the Company as its 6.950% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.

The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 30 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:

5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or


if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.

Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.

Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.

6

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.

In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.

For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

7

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.

The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture.

The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.

8

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).

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

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).

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

All undefined terms (whether or not capitalized) used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note is one of a series designated by the Company as its 5.550% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Notes are issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to December 15, 2025 (the “Par Call Date”), at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the Par Call Date (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 50 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. On and after the Par Call Date, the Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:

5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or


if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.

Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date).

Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.

In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.

For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.

The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.

8

The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).

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

This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).

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

All undefined terms (whether or not capitalized) used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

The Company issued this Debenture pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Debenture, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Debentures and of the terms upon which the Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Debentures are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Debentures are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Debentures of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Debenture or Debentures to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Debentures, reopen the Debentures and issue additional Debentures.

The Debentures are not redeemable prior to the Maturity Date.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Debentures may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Debenture at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Debentures that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year, with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Debentures, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Debentures (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Debentures.

The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Debentures (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Debentures) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Debentures to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Debentures and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Debentures is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Debenture for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).

OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the “Company,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the lesser of (i) the Principal Amount specified above and (ii) the Principal Amount set forth on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note attached hereto on the Maturity Date specified above (unless and to the extent earlier redeemed prior to such Maturity Date) and to pay interest thereon from April 15, 2019 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 in each year, commencing on October 15, 2019, at the rate per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Debenture will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Debenture set forth below, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee or its duly appointed co-authenticating agent by manual signature, this Debenture shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Debenture is one of a series designated by the Company as its 7.125% Debentures due 2027 (the “Debentures”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

The Company issued this Debenture pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Debenture, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Debentures and of the terms upon which the Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Debentures are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Debentures are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Debentures of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Debenture or Debentures to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer.

The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Debentures, reopen the Debentures and issue additional Debentures.

The Debentures are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Debentures to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 10 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Debentures being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Debentures, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:

5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Debentures to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or


if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.

Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Debentures.

Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.

Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.

6

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Debentures to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Debentures or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Debentures or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Debentures are to be redeemed, the Debentures (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Debentures are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Debentures to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Debenture, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Debenture, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Debentures may be surrendered for redemption.

In the event of redemption of this Debenture in part only, a new Debenture or Debentures of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.

For all purposes of this Debenture and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Debenture shall relate, in the case that this Debenture is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Debenture that has been, or is to be, redeemed.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Debentures may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.

7

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Debenture at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Debentures that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Debentures, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Debentures (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Debentures.

The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Debentures (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Debentures) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Debentures to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Debentures and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Debentures is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Debenture for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).

8

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

This Debenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).

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

All undefined terms (whether or not capitalized) used in this Debenture which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the “Company,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the lesser of (i) the Principal Amount specified above and (ii) the Principal Amount set forth on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note attached hereto on the Maturity Date specified above (unless and to the extent earlier redeemed prior to such Maturity Date) and to pay interest thereon from May 15, 2019 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 in each year, commencing on November 15, 2019, at the rate per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, any Defaulted Interest will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date with respect to such Interest Payment Date by virtue of having been such Holder and may either (1) be paid to the Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (as defined below), notice of which will be given to Holders of Debentures not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or (2) be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Debentures may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Payment of the principal of and interest on this Debenture will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

This is one of the Securities of the series designated therein referred to in the within- mentioned Indenture.

The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee

By:
   

Authorized Signatory

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Debenture is one of a series designated by the Company as its 7.150% Debentures due 2028 (the “Debentures”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Debenture pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Debenture, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Debentures and of the terms upon which the Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Debentures are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Debentures are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Debentures of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Debenture or Debentures to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Debentures, reopen the Debentures and issue additional Debentures.
 
The Debentures are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Debentures to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 25 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Debentures being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Debentures, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:
 

the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Debentures to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or
 

if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.
 
The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.
 
Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Debentures.
 
Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.
 
Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.
 
6

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Debentures to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Debentures or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Debentures or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Debentures are to be redeemed, the Debentures (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
 
All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Debentures are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Debentures to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Debenture, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Debenture, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Debentures may be surrendered for redemption.
 
In the event of redemption of this Debenture in part only, a new Debenture or Debentures of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.
 
For all purposes of this Debenture and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Debenture shall relate, in the case that this Debenture is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Debenture that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Debentures may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.
 
7

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Debenture at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Debentures that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Debentures, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Debentures (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Debentures.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Debentures (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Debentures) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Debentures to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Debentures and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture.
 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Debentures is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Debenture for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
 
No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).

Prior to due presentment of this Debenture for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Debenture is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Debenture be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
 
This Debenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).
 
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TENENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Debenture will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Debenture is one of a series designated by the Company as its 7.950% Debentures due 2029 (the “Debentures”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Debenture pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Debenture, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Debentures and of the terms upon which the Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Debentures are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Debentures are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Debentures of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Debenture or Debentures to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Debentures, reopen the Debentures and issue additional Debentures.
 
The Debentures are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Debentures to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 40 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Debentures being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Debentures, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:
 

the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Debentures to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or
 

if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.
 
The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.
 
Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Debentures.
 
Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.
 
Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Debentures to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Debentures or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Debentures or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Debentures are to be redeemed, the Debentures (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
 
All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Debentures are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Debentures to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Debenture, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Debenture, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Debentures may be surrendered for redemption.
 
In the event of redemption of this Debenture in part only, a new Debenture or Debentures of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.
 
For all purposes of this Debenture and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Debenture shall relate, in the case that this Debenture is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Debenture that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Debentures may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Debenture at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Debentures that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Debentures, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Debentures (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Debentures.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Debentures (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Debentures) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Debentures to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Debentures and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Debentures will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.
 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Debentures is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Debenture for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the “Company,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the lesser of (i) the Principal Amount specified above and (ii) the Principal Amount set forth on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note attached hereto on the Maturity Date specified above (unless and to the extent earlier redeemed prior to such Maturity Date) and to pay interest thereon from May 1, 2019 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 in each year, commencing on November 1, 2019, at the rate per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note is one of a series designated by the Company as its 7.500% Senior Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Notes are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.
 
The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 30 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.
 
5

Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:
 

the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or
 

if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.
 
The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.
 
Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.
 
Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.
 
Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.
 
6

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
 
All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.
 
In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.
 
For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
 
7

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.
 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
 
8

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).
 
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
 
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).
 
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TENENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Notes are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.
 
The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 25 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.

The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.

The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.

Reverse of Zero Coupon Senior Note due 2036
 
This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities” or the “Zero Coupon Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Security, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.  This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount at maturity to $[  ].

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of principal amount at maturity of $2,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000.  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth therein, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount at maturity of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
 
The Securities of this series are not subject to any sinking fund.  On October 10, 2019, and on each subsequent anniversary of such date thereafter (each such date, a “Purchase Date”), a Holder shall have the right to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of the Zero Coupon Security registered in the name of such Holder on the Security Register at a Redemption Price equal to the product of the principal amount at maturity of such Zero Coupon Security (or portion thereof) to be redeemed and the “Put Price” related to such Purchase Date as set forth in the table in Annex A hereto (each such amount, a “Purchase Price”).
 
Any Holder electing to require the Company to redeem all or a portion of its Zero Coupon Securities on a Purchase Date must provide prior written notice (a “Redemption Notice”) to the Trustee and the Company (by facsimile or courier in the case of definitive Securities and in accordance with the applicable policies and procedures of the Depositary, in the case of global Securities) at least 20 Business Days prior to such Purchase Date.  The Purchase Date for which a Holder has given a Redemption Notice shall be a “Redemption Date”.  Such Redemption Notice shall include: (i) the portion of the principal amount at maturity of the Zero Coupon Securities that such Holder is electing to have redeemed, which must be $2,000 principal amount at maturity or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, (ii) that the Zero Coupon Securities are to be redeemed pursuant to the applicable provisions of such Zero Coupon Securities, (iii) the relevant Purchase Price and (iv) the Redemption Date.  Once given, such a Redemption Notice is irrevocable.
 
A-6

In accordance with Section 1106 of the Indenture, a Redemption Notice having been given, the Zero Coupon Securities shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Purchase Price, but the Company’s obligation to pay the Purchase Price for the Zero Coupon Securities specified in a Redemption Notice shall be conditioned upon the applicable Holder delivering such Zero Coupon Securities, together with all necessary endorsements, to the Trustee at any time after delivery of such Redemption Notice.  If the Zero Coupon Securities are in the form of global Securities, the delivery shall be in accordance with the applicable policies and procedures of the Depositary.
 
The Company shall cause the Purchase Price for such Zero Coupon Securities to be paid promptly following the later of the relevant Redemption Date or the time of delivery of such Zero Coupon Securities; provided that, if such day is not a Business Day, the Purchase Price may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day.  If a payment is made on the next succeeding Business Day after the date such payment was to be made, the payment shall be deemed to have been made on the original date.  No original issue discount or interest shall accrue as a result of such later payment.  Original issue discount on the Zero Coupon Securities of any Holder shall cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and, if the Trustee holds sufficient funds in the amount of the Purchase Price with respect to such Zero Coupon Securities on the next succeeding Business Day after such Redemption Date, then, on and as of the Redemption Date, the Zero Coupon Securities of such Holder that are being redeemed shall cease to be Outstanding and all other rights of such Holder with respect to such redeemed Zero Coupon Securities shall terminate; provided that the Holder shall retain the right to receive the Purchase Price upon delivery of the Zero Coupon Securities.
 
Except as set forth in the following paragraphs, the Securities shall not be redeemable at the option of the Company prior to Maturity; provided, however, that the Company may, from time to time, purchase the Securities in the open market or otherwise from time to time.
 
If, at the close of business on the day that is 20 Business Days prior to any Purchase Date (such date, the “Trigger Date”), Zero Coupon Securities representing 90% or more of the aggregate Original Accreted Value of the Zero Coupon Securities originally issued under the Indenture have been either purchased or redeemed by the Company or tendered for redemption on such Purchase Date at the election of Holders of the Zero Coupon Securities pursuant to the paragraphs above (a “Trigger Event”), the Company will have the option to redeem all but not part of the Outstanding Zero Coupon Securities upon not less than 15 Business Days prior written notice to the Holders (such notice, the “Optional Redemption Notice”), on the Purchase Date succeeding such Trigger Date or any subsequent Purchase Date (if and as so elected, the “Optional Redemption Date”).  The Redemption Price will equal 100% of the Accreted Value of the Outstanding Zero Coupon Securities on the Optional Redemption Date (the “Optional Redemption Price”).  The Optional Redemption Notice shall include: (i) a statement that the Trigger Event has occurred, (ii) that all Outstanding Zero Coupon Securities (other than any tendered by the Holders for redemption on such Optional Redemption Date) are to be redeemed on the Optional Redemption Date pursuant to the applicable provisions of such Zero Coupon Securities, (iii) the Optional Redemption Price and (iv) the Optional Redemption Date. As used herein, “Original Accreted Value” means the Original Accreted Value as set forth on the face of the Zero Coupon Securities, such amount being equivalent to the Accreted Value of the Zero Coupon Securities as of the date of original issuance.
 
A-7

In accordance with Section 1106 of the Indenture, the Optional Redemption Notice having been given, the Zero Coupon Securities shall, on the Optional Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Optional Redemption Price, but the Company’s obligation to pay the Optional Redemption Price for the Outstanding Zero Coupon Securities specified in the Optional Redemption Notice shall be conditioned upon the Holders delivering such Zero Coupon Securities, together with all necessary endorsements, to the Trustee at any time after delivery of such notice.  If the Zero Coupon Securities are in the form of global Securities, the delivery shall be in accordance with the Applicable Procedures.
 
The Company shall cause the Optional Redemption Price for such Zero Coupon Securities to be paid promptly following the later of the Optional Redemption Date or the time of delivery of such Zero Coupon Securities; provided that, if such day is not a Business Day, the Optional Redemption Price may be paid on the next succeeding Business Day.  If a payment is made on the next succeeding Business Day after the date such payment was to be made, the payment shall be deemed to have been made on the original date.  No original issue discount or interest shall accrue as a result of such later payment.  Original issue discount on the Zero Coupon Securities of any Holder shall cease to accrue on the Optional Redemption Date and, if the Trustee holds sufficient funds in the amount of the Optional Redemption Price with respect to such Zero Coupon Securities on the next succeeding Business Day after such Optional Redemption Date, then, on and as of the Optional Redemption Date, the Zero Coupon Securities of such Holder that are being redeemed shall cease to be Outstanding and all other rights of such Holder with respect to such redeemed Zero Coupon Securities shall terminate; provided that the Holder shall retain the right to receive the Optional Redemption Price upon delivery of the Zero Coupon Securities.
 
In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.
 
For all purposes of this Security and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Security shall relate, in the case that this Security is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of this Security that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, an amount of principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.  Such amount shall be equal to 100% of the Accreted Value of the Outstanding Zero Coupon Securities as of the date of acceleration of such Securities.  Upon payment (i) of the amount of principal so declared due and payable and (ii) of interest on any overdue principal (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on the Securities of this series shall terminate.
 
A-8

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences.  Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.  For purposes of this paragraph and the following paragraph, the “principal amount” of the Securities of this series that shall be deemed to be Outstanding as of any date for any purpose under the Indenture shall be the Accreted Value thereof as of such date (or, if such date is after the date of Maturity of the principal thereof, the Accreted Value thereof on such date of Maturity).
 
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount at maturity of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity.  The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.
 
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
A-9

The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Securities that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Securities (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Securities.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Securities (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Securities by (i)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Securities to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal on the Securities and (ii) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (a) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (b) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (a) or (b) to the effect that the Holders of the Securities will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Securities, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal on the Securities. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Securities, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Securities will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.
 
A-10

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note is one of a series designated by the Company as its 7.950% Senior Notes due 2039 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Notes are issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.
 
The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 50 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.
 
Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:
 
5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or
 

if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.
 
The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.
 
Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.
 
Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.
 
Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.
 
6

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
 
All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.
 
In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.
 
For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
 
7

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.
 
8

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
 
No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).
 
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
 
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).
 
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TENENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note is one of a series designated by the Company as its 6.200% Senior Notes due 2040 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Notes are issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.
 
The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to final maturity, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the final maturity (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 25 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.
 
Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:
 
5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed, yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or
 

if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.
 
The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.
 
Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.

Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc.

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
 
All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.
 
In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.
 
For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
 
7

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.

No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).

For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
 
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.
 
8

The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.
 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
 
No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).
 
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
 
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).
 
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TENENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the “Company,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assigns, the lesser of (i) the Principal Amount specified above and (ii) the Principal Amount set forth on the Schedule of Exchanges of Interests in the Global Note attached hereto on the Maturity Date specified above (unless and to the extent earlier redeemed prior to such Maturity Date) and to pay interest thereon from September 15, 2019 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 in each year, commencing on March 15, 2020, at the rate per annum specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest on this Note will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. Interest payments for this Note will include interest accrued to but excluding each Interest Payment Date. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date, which shall be the March 1 or September 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. If any Interest Payment Date or Maturity with respect to this Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment due on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Interest Payment Date or Maturity, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be, until such following Business Day. Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, any Defaulted Interest will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date with respect to such Interest Payment Date by virtue of having been such Holder and may either (1) be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee (as defined below), notice of which will be given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or (2) be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.
 
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth below, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Note is one of a series designated by the Company as its 6.600% Senior Notes due 2046 (the “Notes”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Note pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Note, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Notes are issuable in denominations of $2,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Notes may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Notes, reopen the Notes and issue additional Notes.
 
The Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to September 15, 2045 (the “Par Call Date”), at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed through the Par Call Date (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to, but not including, the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined herein) plus 50 basis points plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. On and after the Par Call Date, the Notes are redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of the Notes, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of the Indenture.
 
Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum, as determined by the Quotation Agent equal to:
 
5


the yield, under the heading that represents the average for the immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical release designated “H.15” or any successor publication that is published weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue; provided that if no maturity is within three months before or after the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date), yields for the two published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue will be determined and the Treasury Rate will be interpolated or extrapolated from those yields on a straight-line basis rounding to the nearest month; or
 

if that release, or any successor release, is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.
 
The Treasury Rate will be calculated at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day preceding the Redemption Date by the Quotation Agent.
 
Comparable Treasury Issue” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes (assuming, for this purpose, that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date).
 
Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Quotation Agent obtains fewer than three Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, such average in any case to be determined by the Quotation Agent, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation.
 
Quotation Agent” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
 
Reference Treasury Dealer” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, each of (1) BofA Securities, Inc. and Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or their respective affiliates that are primary U.S. Government securities dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of them shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in the United States of America (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute for it another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealer or Dealers selected by the Company.
 
6

Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Quotation Agent, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Quotation Agent by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day in The City of New York preceding such Redemption Date.
 
Notice of any redemption will be sent at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price (or any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes or portions thereof to be redeemed), on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed shall be selected, in the case of Global Notes, in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depository or, in the case of Definitive Notes, by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
 
All notices of redemption shall state the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price (or, if not then ascertainable, the manner of calculation thereof), if fewer than all the Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Notes to be redeemed, that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each Note, or portion thereof, to be redeemed, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, that interest on each Note, or portion thereof, called for redemption will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date and the place or places where Notes may be surrendered for redemption.
 
In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of like tenor in an aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal amount hereof will be issued in authorized denominations in the name of the Holder hereof upon surrender hereof.
 
For all purposes of this Note and the Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption by the Company of this Note shall relate, in the case that this Note is redeemed, or to be redeemed, by the Company only in part, to that portion of the principal amount of this Note that has been, or is to be, redeemed.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
7

The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
 
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be, the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Notes that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year (or are scheduled for redemption within one year), with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Notes, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Notes (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Notes.
 
The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Notes (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Notes) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Notes to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture, including delivering to the Trustee an opinion of counsel from a nationally recognized counsel or an IRS ruling stating that (A) the Company has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in the case of either (A) or (B) to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such discharge and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and discharge were not to occur.
 
8

The Company shall also be permitted to omit to comply with the restrictive covenants described in Sections 1007 and 801 of the Indenture, with respect to the Notes, and the omission shall not be an Event of Default, pursuant to the Company’s right to covenant defeasance. In order to exercise the Company’s right to covenant defeasance, the Company will be required to deposit with the Trustee, in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations, funds sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Notes. To effect a covenant defeasance with respect to the Notes, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and the covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and covenant defeasance were not to occur.
 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Notes is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Note for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
 
No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).
 
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
 
This Note shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York (without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof).
 
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as TEN COM (=tenants in common), TENENT (=tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (=joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (=custodian), and U/G/M/A (=Uniform Gift to Minors Act).

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Debenture will be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency designated by the Company for such purpose, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date may be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.
 
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Debenture set forth below, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Debenture is one of a series designated by the Company as its 7.730% Debentures due 2096 (the “Debentures”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Debenture pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Debenture, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Debentures and of the terms upon which the Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Debentures are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Debentures are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Debentures of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Debenture or Debentures to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Debentures, reopen the Debentures and issue additional Debentures.
 
The Debentures are not redeemable at the option of the company prior to the Maturity Date.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Debentures may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
Redemption Right.
 
On September 15, 2026, or if such date is not a Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day (the “2026 Redemption Date”), each Holder of the Debentures shall have the right (the “Redemption Right”) to require the Company to redeem, in whole or in part, such Holder’s Debenture at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the 2026 Redemption Date.
 
5

On or prior to July 1, 2026, the Company shall mail a notice to each Holder stating that (a) in order for a Holder to exercise the Redemption Right, the Holder must surrender the Debentures in respect of which the Redemption Right is being exercised, or transfer such Debentures by book-entry form, to the Trustee during the period from July 15, 2026 and prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on August 14, 2026 (or if such date is not a Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day), (b) any election on the part of a Holder to exercise the Redemption Right effected in accordance with the foregoing shall be irrevocable on the part of the Holder and may not be withdrawn, (c) Holders whose Debentures are being redeemed only in part will be issued new Debentures equal in principal amount to the unredeemed portion of the Debentures surrendered, which unredeemed portion must be equal to $1,000 in principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 thereof and (d) unless the Company defaults in the payment of principal and accrued interest on the Debentures to be redeemed on the 2026 Redemption Date, interest on such Debentures will cease to accrue on the Redemption Date.
 
The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.
 
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Debenture at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Debentures that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year, with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Debentures, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Debentures (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Debentures.
 
6

The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Debentures (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Debentures) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Debentures to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Debentures and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture.
 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Debentures is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Debenture for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
 
No service charge shall be made by the Company, the Trustee or the Security Registrar for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Sections 304, 305, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture not involving any transfer).
 
Prior to due presentment of this Debenture for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Debenture is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Debenture be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

By:

This Debenture is one of a duly authorized issue of securities (herein called the “Securities”) of the Company, issued and to be issued pursuant to the Indenture (as defined below). This Debenture is one of a series designated by the Company as its 7.500% Debentures due 2096 (the “Debentures”), limited in initial aggregate principal amount to $[  ]. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.
 
The Company issued this Debenture pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2019 (herein called the “Indenture” which term, for the purpose of this Debenture, shall include the Officer’s Certificate dated September [18], 2019, delivered pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and Holders of the Debentures and of the terms upon which the Debentures are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
 
The Debentures are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Debentures are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Debentures of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same, upon surrender of the Debenture or Debentures to be exchanged at any office or agency described below where Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer.
 
The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of the Debentures, reopen the Debentures and issue additional Debentures.
 
The Debentures are not redeemable prior to the Maturity Date.
 
If an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued interest on the Debentures may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
 
Conditional Right to Shorten Maturity.
 
At the election of the Company, the Debentures may have their maturity shortened upon the occurrence of a Tax Event, to the extent required, in the opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel, so that, after the shortening of the maturity, interest paid on the Debentures will be deductible for federal income tax purposes.
 
In the event that the Company elects to exercise its right to shorten the maturity of the Debentures due to the occurrence of a Tax Event, the Company shall mail a notice of shortened maturity to each Holder of record of the Debentures by first-class mail, or otherwise deliver in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depository, not more than 60 days after the occurrence of such Tax Event, stating the new maturity date of the Debentures.  Such notice would be effective upon mailing.
 
5

“Tax Event” means that the Company shall have received an opinion of a nationally recognized independent tax counsel to the effect that on or after the date of the Indenture, as a result of (a) any amendment to, clarification of, or change (including any announced prospective change) in laws, or any regulations thereunder, of the United States, (b) any judicial decision, official administrative pronouncement, ruling, regulatory procedure, notice or announcement, including any notice or announcement of intent to adopt such procedures or regulations (an “Administrative Action”), or (c) any amendment to, clarification of, or change in the official position or the interpretation of an Administrative Action or judicial decision that differs from the theretofore generally accepted position, in each case, on or after the date of the Indenture, such change in tax law creates a more than insubstantial risk that interest paid by the Company on the Debentures is not, or will not be, deductible, in whole or in part, by the Company for purposes of federal income tax.
 
The Indenture permits, in certain circumstances therein specified, the amendment thereof without the consent of the Holders of the Securities. The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations under the Indenture of the Company and the rights of Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent  of (i) the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series voting as a single class or (ii) if fewer than all of the series of the Outstanding Securities are affected by such addition, change, elimination, or modification, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series so affected voting as a single class (including, for the avoidance of doubt, consents obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange for, such debt securities). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Outstanding Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Debenture.
 
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture, subject to the provisions for satisfaction and discharge in Article Four of the Indenture, shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Debenture at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
 
The Company shall be permitted, by irrevocably depositing cash or U.S. Government Obligations, in amounts and maturities sufficient to pay and discharge at the Stated Maturity the entire indebtedness on all Outstanding Debentures that have become due and payable or will become due and payable within one year, with the Trustee in trust, solely for the benefit of the Holders of all Outstanding Debentures, to defease the Indenture with respect to such Debentures (subject to specified exceptions), and upon such deposit and satisfaction of the other conditions set forth in the Indenture, the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged its entire indebtedness on the Debentures.

The Company shall also be permitted to discharge, at any time, its obligations in respect of the Debentures (other than certain limited obligations, such as the obligation to transfer and exchange the Debentures) by (1)(a) delivering all of the outstanding Debentures to the Trustee to be cancelled or (b) depositing with the Trustee in trust funds or non-callable United States government or government-guaranteed obligations sufficient, without investment, to pay all remaining principal and interest on the Debentures and (2) complying with certain other provisions of the Indenture.
 
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of Debentures is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of a Debenture for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at the office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Debentures of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

(1)
Consideration per $1,000 principal amount of Old Notes validly tendered and accepted for exchange. No additional payment will be made for a holder’s consent to the Proposed Amendments.
(2)
The term “Oxy Notes” in this column refers, in each case, to the series of Oxy Notes corresponding to the series of Old Notes of like tenor and coupon.
(3)
Aggregate principal amount at maturity. The accreted amount as of September 18, 2019, the anticipated settlement date of the applicable Exchange Offer, will be approximately $413,739.22 per $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity of Zero Coupon Notes. Except where otherwise indicated, the term “aggregate principal amount,” when used in reference to the Zero Coupon Notes, refers to the accreted amount as of the anticipated settlement date.

The Exchange Offers were made pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in Occidental’s prospectus, dated as of August 15, 2019 (the “Prospectus”), as amended by a press release issued by Occidental on August 29, 2019, and the related Letter of Transmittal and Consent (the “Letter of Transmittal”). The Prospectus forms a part of the Registration Statement on Form S-4, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on August 1, 2019, as amended by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed with the SEC on August 13, 2019 (the “Registration Statement”), and declared effective on August 15, 2019.
 
Following the Expiration Date, tenders of Old Notes may not be validly withdrawn. As of the Expiration Date, all conditions to the Exchange Offers were satisfied, other than (a) the conditions that Occidental obtains (i) the requisite consents applicable to each series of Old Notes to adopt the Proposed Amendments for all series of Old Notes at or by the Expiration Date (the “Requisite Consents”) and (ii) the valid tender (without valid withdrawal) of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Old Notes of all series at or by the Expiration Date, each of which Occidental waived as announced on August 29, 2019, and (b) the condition that Occidental obtains the receipt of the Requisite Consents for the 7.250% Debentures due 2025 issued by Anadarko and the 7.250% Debentures due 2096 issued by Anadarko (together, the “Specified Old Notes”). Occidental currently anticipates that the settlement date of the Exchange Offers will be September 18, 2019. Eligible holders of Old Notes other than the Specified Old Notes who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw such notes at or prior to the Expiration Date are eligible to receive the total consideration set forth in the table above. Occidental will not accept any Specified Old Notes tendered for exchange in the Exchange Offers.
 
With respect to the Old Notes other than the Specified Old Notes, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 28, 2019, Occidental had obtained the Requisite Consents. Accordingly, supplemental indentures to the applicable Old Notes Indentures that implement the Proposed Amendments were executed by Anadarko, Anadarko HoldCo, Anadarko Finance and Kerr-McGee on August 29, 2019. Such supplemental indentures will become operative upon the settlement of the Exchange Offers.
 
This press release is not an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the securities described herein and is also not a solicitation of the related consents.  The Exchange Offers were made solely pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Prospectus, the Letter of Transmittal and the other related materials.  The Exchange Offers were not made in any state or jurisdiction in which such offers would have been unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.


Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
 
This communication contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws, including Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. In this context, forward-looking statements often address expected future business and financial performance and financial condition, and often contain words such as “expect,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” “seek,” “will,” “would,” “target,” similar expressions, and variations or negatives of these words. Forward-looking statements by their nature address matters that are, to different degrees, uncertain, such as the expected timing of completion of the Exchange Offers. These and other forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements, including the failure to make any filing or take other action required to consummate the Exchange Offers in a timely matter or at all.
 
Factors that could cause actual results to differ and that may affect Occidental’s results of operations and financial position appear in Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” of Occidental’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018, and in Occidental’s other filings with the SEC. Additional factors related to the Exchange Offers appear in the Registration Statement.
