If the Calculation Day has been postponed eight Trading Days after the originally scheduled Calculation Day and a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on such eighth Trading Day, the Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Price of the Fund on such eighth Trading Day based on its good faith estimate of the value of the shares (or other applicable securities) of the Fund as of the close of trading on such eighth Trading Day.

Pursuant to the Calculation Agent Agreement, the Company may appoint a different Calculation Agent from time to time after the initial issuance of this Security without the consent of the Holder of this Security and without notifying the Holder of this Security.

Market Disruption Events

A “Market Disruption Event” means any of the following events as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion:

For purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred:

Anti-dilution Adjustments Relating to the Fund; Alternate Calculation

Anti-dilution Adjustments

The Calculation Agent will adjust the Adjustment Factor as specified below if any of the events specified below occurs with respect to the Fund and the effective date or ex-dividend date, as applicable, for such event is after the Pricing Date and on or prior to the Calculation Day.

The adjustments specified below do not cover all events that could affect the Fund. The Calculation Agent may, in its sole discretion, make additional adjustments to any terms of this Security upon the occurrence of other events that affect or could potentially affect the market price of, or shareholder rights in, the Fund, with a view to offsetting, to the extent practical, any such change, and preserving the relative investment risks of this Security. In addition, the Calculation Agent may, in its sole discretion, make adjustments or a series of adjustments that differ from those described herein if the Calculation Agent determines that such adjustments do not properly reflect the economic consequences of the events specified herein or would not preserve the relative investment risks of this Security. All determinations made by the Calculation Agent in making any adjustments to the terms of this Security, including adjustments that are in addition to, or that differ from, those described herein, will be made in good faith and a commercially reasonable manner, with the aim of ensuring an equitable result. In determining whether to make any adjustment to the terms of this Security, the Calculation Agent may consider any adjustment made by the Options Clearing Corporation or any other equity derivatives clearing organization on options contracts on the Fund.

For any event described below, the Calculation Agent will not be required to adjust the Adjustment Factor unless the adjustment would result in a change to the Adjustment Factor then in effect of at least 0.10%. The Adjustment Factor resulting from any adjustment will be rounded up or down, as appropriate, to the nearest one-hundred thousandth.

If a stock split or reverse stock split has occurred, then once such split has become effective, the Adjustment Factor will be adjusted to equal the product of the prior Adjustment Factor and the number of securities which a holder of one share (or other applicable security) of the Fund before the effective date of such stock split or reverse stock split would have owned or been entitled to receive immediately following the applicable effective date.

If a dividend or distribution of shares (or other applicable securities) to which this Security is linked has been made by the Fund ratably to all holders of record of such shares (or other applicable security), then the Adjustment Factor will be adjusted on the ex-dividend date to equal the prior Adjustment Factor plus the product of the prior Adjustment Factor and the number of shares (or other applicable security) of the Fund which a holder of one share (or other applicable security) of the Fund before the ex-dividend date would have owned or been entitled to receive immediately following that date; provided, however, that no adjustment will be made for a distribution for which the number of securities of the Fund paid or distributed is based on a fixed cash equivalent value.

If an Extraordinary Dividend (as defined below) has occurred, then the Adjustment Factor will be adjusted on the ex-dividend date to equal the product of the prior Adjustment Factor and a fraction, the numerator of which is the Closing Price per share (or other applicable security) of the Fund on the Trading Day preceding the ex-dividend date, and the denominator of which is the amount by which the Closing Price per share (or other applicable security) of the Fund on the Trading Day preceding the ex-dividend date exceeds the Extraordinary Dividend Amount (as defined below).

For purposes of determining whether an Extraordinary Dividend has occurred:

distribution that is attributable to the Extraordinary Dividend, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion.

A distribution on the securities of the Fund described below under the section entitled “—Reorganization Events” below that also constitutes an Extraordinary Dividend will only cause an adjustment pursuant to that “—Reorganization Events” section.

If the Fund declares or makes a distribution to all holders of the shares (or other applicable security) of the Fund of any non-cash assets, excluding dividends or distributions described under the section entitled “—Stock Dividends” above, then the Calculation Agent may, in its sole discretion, make such adjustment (if any) to the Adjustment Factor as it deems appropriate in the circumstances. If the Calculation Agent determines to make an adjustment pursuant to this paragraph, it will do so with a view to offsetting, to the extent practical, any change in the economic position of a holder of this Security that results solely from the applicable event.

If the Fund, or any Successor Fund, is subject to a merger, combination, consolidation or statutory exchange of securities with another exchange traded fund, and the Fund to which this Security is linked is not the surviving entity (a “Reorganization Event”), then, on or after the date of such event, the Calculation Agent shall, in its sole discretion, make an adjustment to the Adjustment Factor or the method of determining the Maturity Payment Amount or any other terms of this Security as the Calculation Agent determines appropriate to account for the economic effect on this Security of such event, and determine the effective date of that adjustment. If the Calculation Agent determines that no adjustment that it could make will produce a commercially reasonable result, then the Calculation Agent may deem such event a Liquidation Event (as defined below).

Liquidation Events

If the Fund is de-listed, liquidated or otherwise terminated (a “Liquidation Event”), and a successor or substitute exchange traded fund exists that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to the Fund, then, upon the Calculation Agent’s notification of that determination to the Trustee and the Company, any subsequent Fund Closing Price for the Fund will be determined by reference to the Fund Closing Price of such successor or substitute exchange traded fund (such exchange traded fund being referred to herein as a “Successor Fund”), with such adjustments as the Calculation Agent determines are appropriate to account for the economic effect of such substitution on the holder of this Security.

If the Fund undergoes a Liquidation Event prior to, and such Liquidation Event is continuing on, the date that any Fund Closing Price of the Fund is to be determined and the

Calculation Agent determines that no Successor Fund is available at such time, then the Calculation Agent will, in its discretion, calculate the Fund Closing Price for the Fund on such date by a computation methodology that the Calculation Agent determines will as closely as reasonably possible replicate the Fund, provided that if the Calculation Agent determines in its discretion that it is not practicable to replicate the Fund (including but not limited to the instance in which the sponsor of the Underlying Index discontinues publication of the Underlying Index), then the Calculation Agent will calculate the Fund Closing Price for the Fund in accordance with the formula last used to calculate such Fund Closing Price before such Liquidation Event, but using only those securities that were held by the Fund immediately prior to such Liquidation Event without any rebalancing or substitution of such securities following such Liquidation Event.

If a Successor Fund is selected or the Calculation Agent calculates the Fund Closing Price as a substitute for the Fund, such Successor Fund or Fund Closing Price will be used as a substitute for the Fund for all purposes, including for purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event exists.

If any event is both a Reorganization Event and a Liquidation Event, such event will be treated as a Reorganization Event for purposes of this Security unless the Calculation Agent makes the determination referenced in the last sentence of the section entitled “—Anti-dilution Adjustments—Reorganization Events” above.

Alternate Calculation

If at any time the method of calculating the Fund or a Successor Fund, or the Underlying Index, is changed in a material respect, or if the Fund or a Successor Fund is in any other way modified so that the Fund does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the price of the securities of the Fund or such Successor Fund had such changes or modifications not been made, then the Calculation Agent may, at the close of business in New York City on the date that any Fund Closing Price is to be determined, make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a Closing Price of an exchange traded fund comparable to the Fund or such Successor Fund, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications had not been made, and calculate the Fund Closing Price and the Maturity Payment Amount with reference to such adjusted Closing Price of the Fund or such Successor Fund, as applicable.

Calculation Agent

The Calculation Agent will determine the Maturity Payment Amount, the Starting Price and the Ending Price. In addition, the Calculation Agent will (i) determine if adjustments are required to the Fund Closing Price and/or the Adjustment Factor under the circumstances described in this Security, (ii) if the Fund undergoes a Liquidation Event, select a Successor Fund or, if no Successor Fund is available, determine the Fund Closing Price of the Fund, and (iii) determine whether a Market Disruption Event or non-Trading Day has occurred.

The Company covenants that, so long as this Security is Outstanding, there shall at all times be a Calculation Agent (which shall be a broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution) with respect to this Security.

All determinations made by the Calculation Agent with respect to this Security will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and, in the absence of manifest error, will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Company and the Holder of this Security.

Tax Considerations

The Company agrees, and by acceptance of a beneficial ownership interest in this Security each Holder of this Security will be deemed to have agreed (in the absence of a statutory, regulatory, administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary), for United States federal income tax purposes to characterize and treat this Security as a prepaid derivative contract that is an “open transaction.”

Redemption and Repayment

This Security is not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the Holder hereof prior to January 9, 2023. This Security is not entitled to any sinking fund.

Acceleration

If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to this Security shall occur and be continuing, the Maturity Payment Amount (calculated as set forth in the next sentence) of this Security may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The amount payable to the Holder hereof upon any acceleration permitted under the Indenture will be equal to the Maturity Payment Amount hereof calculated as provided herein as though the date of acceleration was the Calculation Day.

__________________

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, 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 referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature or its duly authorized agent under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

Pursuant to the Calculation Agent Agreement, the Company may appoint a different Calculation Agent from time to time after the initial issuance of this Security without the consent of the Holder of this Security and without notifying the Holder of this Security.

Discontinuance Of A Basket Underlier

If a Basket Underlier Sponsor discontinues publication of a Basket Underlier, and such Basket Underlier Sponsor or another entity publishes a successor or substitute equity index that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, to be comparable to such Basket Underlier (a “Successor Basket Underlier”), then, upon the Calculation Agent’s notification of that determination to the Trustee and the Company, the Calculation Agent will substitute the Successor Basket Underlier as calculated by the relevant Basket Underlier Sponsor or any other entity and calculate the Closing Level of such Basket Underlier as described above. Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Basket Underlier, the Company will cause notice to be given to the Holder of this Security.

In the event that a Basket Underlier Sponsor discontinues publication of a Basket Underlier prior to, and the discontinuance is continuing on, the Determination Date and the Calculation Agent determines that no Successor Basket Underlier is available at such time, the Calculation Agent will calculate a substitute Closing Level for such Basket Underlier in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating such Basket Underlier last in effect prior to the discontinuance, but using only those securities that comprised such Basket Underlier immediately prior to that discontinuance. If a Successor Basket Underlier is selected or the Calculation Agent calculates a level as a substitute for such Basket Underlier, the Successor Basket Underlier or level will be used as a substitute for such Basket Underlier for all purposes, including the purpose of determining whether a Market Disruption Event exists.

If on the Determination Date a Basket Underlier Sponsor fails to calculate and announce the level of a Basket Underlier, the Calculation Agent will calculate a substitute Closing Level of such Basket Underlier in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating such Basket Underlier last in effect prior to the failure, but using only those securities that comprised such

Basket Underlier immediately prior to that failure; provided that, if a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on such day with respect to such Basket Underlier, then the provisions set forth below under “Market Disruption Events” shall apply in lieu of the foregoing.

Adjustments To A Basket Underlier

If at any time the method of calculating a Basket Underlier or a Successor Basket Underlier, or the Closing Level thereof, is changed in a material respect, or if a Basket Underlier or a Successor Basket Underlier is in any other way modified so that such Basket Underlier does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the level of such Basket Underlier had those changes or modifications not been made, then the Calculation Agent will, at the close of business in New York, New York, on each date that the Closing Level of such Basket Underlier is to be calculated, make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a level of an index comparable to such Basket Underlier or Successor Basket Underlier as if those changes or modifications had not been made, and the Calculation Agent will calculate the Closing Level of such Basket Underlier or Successor Basket Underlier with reference to such index, as so adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating a Basket Underlier or Successor Basket Underlier is modified so that the level of such Basket Underlier is a fraction or a multiple of what it would have been if it had not been modified (e.g., due to a split or reverse split in such basket underlier), then the Calculation Agent will adjust such Basket Underlier or Successor Basket Underlier in order to arrive at a level of such Basket Underlier as if it had not been modified (e.g., as if the split or reverse split had not occurred).

Market Disruption Events

A “Market Disruption Event” with respect to the TOPIX^® Index, the FTSE^® 100 Index, the Swiss Market Index (SMI^®) or the S&P/ASX 200 Index, means any of the following events as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion:

their Relevant Stock Exchanges at any time during the one-hour period that ends at the Close of Trading on that day.

For purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred with respect to the TOPIX^® Index, the FTSE^® 100 Index, the Swiss Market Index (SMI^®) or the S&P/ASX 200 Index:

Underlier or Successor Basket Underlier, the “close of trading” means the latest actual closing time of the regular trading session of any of the Relevant Stock Exchanges, but in no event later than the Scheduled Closing Time of the Relevant Stock Exchanges;

A “Market Disruption Event” with respect to the EURO STOXX 50^® Index means, any of (A), (B), (C) or (D) below, as determined by the Calculation Agent in its sole discretion:

for orders to be entered into the Relevant Stock Exchange system for execution at the Scheduled Closing Time for such Relevant Stock Exchange on that day.

For purposes of determining whether a Market Disruption Event has occurred with respect to the EURO STOXX 50^® Index:

Underlier, in each case using the official opening weightings as published by the relevant Basket Underlier Sponsor as part of the market opening data;

If a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing with respect to any Basket Underlier on the Determination Date, then the Determination Date for such Basket Underlier will be postponed to the first succeeding Trading Day for such Basket Underlier on which a Market Disruption Event for such Basket Underlier has not occurred and is not continuing; however, if such first succeeding Trading Day has not occurred as of the eighth Trading Day for such Basket Underlier after the originally scheduled Determination Date, that eighth Trading Day shall be deemed to be the Determination Date for such Basket Underlier. If the Determination Date has been postponed eight Trading Days for a Basket Underlier after the originally scheduled Determination Date and a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing with respect to such Basket Underlier on such eighth Trading Day, the Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Level of such Basket Underlier on such eighth Trading Day in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Closing Level of such Basket Underlier last in effect prior to commencement of the Market Disruption Event, using the closing price (or, with respect to any relevant security, if a Market Disruption Event has occurred with respect to such security, its good faith estimate of the value of such security at (i) with respect to the TOPIX^® Index, the FTSE^® 100 Index, the Swiss Market Index (SMI^®) and the S&P/ASX 200 Index, the Scheduled Closing Time of the Relevant Stock Exchange for such security or, if earlier, the actual closing time of the regular trading session of such Relevant Stock Exchange or (ii) with respect to the EURO STOXX 50^® Index, the time at which the official closing level of that Basket Underlier is calculated and published by the relevant Basket Underlier Sponsor) on such date of each security included in such Basket Underlier. As used herein, “closing price” means, with respect to any security on any date, the Relevant Stock Exchange traded or quoted price of such security as of (i) with respect to the TOPIX^® Index, the FTSE^® 100 Index, the Swiss Market Index (SMI^®) or the S&P/ASX 200 Index, the Scheduled Closing Time of the Relevant Stock Exchange for such security or, if earlier, the actual closing time of the regular trading session of such Relevant Stock Exchange or (ii) with respect to the EURO STOXX 50^® Index, the time at which the official closing level of such Basket Underlier is calculated and published by the relevant Basket Underlier Sponsor. Notwithstanding the postponement of the determination date for a Basket Underlier due to a Market Disruption Event with respect to such Basket Underlier on the Determination Date, the originally scheduled Determination Date will remain the Determination Date for any Basket Underlier not affected by a Market Disruption Event on such day.

Calculation Agent

The Calculation Agent will determine the Cash Settlement Amount and the Final Basket Level. In addition, the Calculation Agent will (i) determine if adjustments are required to the Closing Level of a Basket Underlier under the circumstances described in this Security, (ii) if publication of a Basket Underlier is discontinued, select a Successor Basket Underlier or, if no Successor Basket Underlier is available, determine the Closing Level of such Basket Underlier under the circumstances described in this Security, and (iii) determine whether a Market Disruption Event or non-Trading Day has occurred.

The Company covenants that, so long as this Security is Outstanding, there shall at all times be a Calculation Agent (which shall be a broker-dealer, bank or other financial institution) with respect to this Security.

All determinations made by the Calculation Agent with respect to this Security will be at the sole discretion of the Calculation Agent and, in the absence of manifest error, will be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Company and the Holder of this Security.

Tax Considerations

The Company agrees, and by acceptance of a beneficial ownership interest in this Security each Holder of this Security will be deemed to have agreed (in the absence of a statutory, regulatory, administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary), for United States federal income tax purposes to characterize and treat this Security as a prepaid derivative contract that is an “open transaction.”

Redemption and Repayment

This Security is not subject to redemption at the option of the Company or repayment at the option of the Holder hereof prior to July 2, 2021. This Security is not entitled to any sinking fund.

Acceleration

If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, with respect to this Security shall occur and be continuing, the Cash Settlement Amount (calculated as set forth in the next sentence) of this Security may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The amount payable to the Holder hereof upon any acceleration permitted under the Indenture will be equal to the Cash Settlement Amount hereof calculated as provided herein as though the date of acceleration was the Determination Date.
