Payment of interest on this Security will be made in immediately available funds at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the City of Minneapolis, Minnesota 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, however, that, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be paid by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto at such Person’s last address as it appears in the Security Register or by wire transfer to such account as may have been designated by such Person. Payment of principal of and interest on this Security at Maturity will be made against presentation of this Security at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the City of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as this Security is a Global Security registered in the name of the Depositary, payments of principal and interest on this Security will be made to the Depositary by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

This Security is redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, on any Optional Redemption Date at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed, plus any accrued but unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. The “Optional Redemption Dates” are quarterly on the 8^th day of each January, April, July and October, commencing April 8, 2023 and ending January 8, 2030.

Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price, on or after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on this Security or the portion hereof called for redemption.

This Security is not subject to repayment at the option of the Holder hereof prior to April 8, 2030. This Security is not entitled to any sinking fund.

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.

Determination of Cash Settlement Amount and Certain Definitions

The “Cash Settlement Amount” of this Security will equal:

All calculations with respect to the Cash Settlement Amount will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth, with five one-millionths rounded upward (e.g., 0.000005 would be rounded to 0.00001); and the Cash Settlement Amount will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward.

The “Closing Level” of the Underlier on any Trading Day means the official closing level of the Underlier reported by the Underlier Sponsor on such Trading Day, as obtained by the Calculation Agent on such Trading Day from the licensed third-party market data vendor contracted by the Calculation Agent at such time; in particular, taking into account the decimal precision and/or rounding convention employed by such licensed third-party market data vendor on such date, subject to the provisions set forth below under “Adjustments to the Underlier,” “Discontinuance of the Underlier” and “Market Disruption Events.”

The “Final Underlier Level” will be the Closing Level of the Underlier on the Determination Date.

The “Underlier Return” will be the quotient of (i) the Final Underlier Level minus the Initial Underlier Level divided by (ii) the Initial Underlier Level, expressed as a percentage.

The “Cap Level” is 2,859.60375, which is 115.75% of the Initial Underlier Level.

The “Related Futures or Options Exchange” for the Underlier means an exchange or quotation system where trading has a material effect (as determined by the Calculation Agent) on the overall market for futures or options contracts relating to the Underlier.

The “Relevant Stock Exchange” for any security underlying the Underlier means the primary exchange or quotation system on which such security is traded, as determined by the Calculation Agent.

The “Determination Date” shall be April 22, 2021. If the originally scheduled Determination Date is not a Trading Day, the Determination Date will be postponed to the next succeeding 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.

Adjustments to the Underlier

If at any time the method of calculating the Underlier or a Successor Underlier, or the closing level thereof, is changed in a material respect, or if the Underlier or a Successor Underlier is in any other way modified so that such underlier does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the level of such 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 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 underlier comparable to the Underlier or Successor Underlier as if those changes or modifications had not been made, and the Calculation Agent will calculate the closing level of the Underlier or Successor Underlier with reference to such underlier, as so adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the Underlier or Successor Underlier is modified so that the level of such 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 equity underlier), then the Calculation Agent will adjust the Underlier or Successor Underlier in order to arrive at a level of such underlier as if it had not been modified (e.g., as if the split or reverse split had not occurred).

Discontinuance of the Underlier

If the Underlier Sponsor discontinues publication of the Underlier, and the 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 the Underlier (a “Successor Underlier”), then, upon the Calculation Agent’s notification of that determination to the Trustee and the Company, the Calculation Agent will substitute the Successor Underlier as calculated by the relevant Underlier Sponsor or any other entity and calculate the Final Underlier Level as described above. Upon any selection by the Calculation Agent of a Successor Underlier, the Company will cause notice to be given to the Holder of this Security.

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

If on the Determination Date the Underlier Sponsor fails to calculate and announce the level of the Underlier, the Calculation Agent will calculate a substitute Closing Level of the Underlier in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Underlier last in effect prior to the failure, but using only those securities that comprised the Underlier immediately prior to that failure; provided that, if a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on such day, then the provisions set forth below under “Market Disruption Events” shall apply in lieu of the foregoing.

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:

If a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on the Determination Date, then the Determination Date will be postponed to the first succeeding Trading Day on which a Market Disruption Event has not occurred and is not continuing; however, if such first succeeding Trading Day has not occurred as of the eighth Trading Day after the originally scheduled Determination Date, that eighth Trading Day shall be deemed to be the Determination Date. If the Determination Date has been postponed eight Trading Days after the originally scheduled Determination Date and a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on such eighth Trading Day, the Calculation Agent will determine the Closing Level of the Underlier on such eighth Trading Day in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Closing Level of the 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 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) on such date of each security included in the 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 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.

Calculation Agent

The Calculation Agent will determine the Cash Settlement Amount and the Final Underlier Level. In addition, the Calculation Agent will (i) determine if adjustments are required to the Closing Level of the Underlier under the circumstances described in this Security, (ii) if publication of the Underlier is discontinued, select a Successor Underlier or, if no Successor Underlier is available, determine the Closing Level of the 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 April 26, 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.

__________________

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.
