NOW, THEREFORE, THIS FORTY-EIGHTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE WITNESSETH that, in order to establish the terms of a series of Securities, and for and in consideration of the premises and of the covenants contained in the Original Indenture and in this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture and for other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is mutually covenanted and agreed as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS

OF GENERAL APPLICATION

1.1. Definitions. Each capitalized term that is used herein and is defined in the Original Indenture shall have the meaning specified in the Original Indenture unless that term is otherwise defined herein.

1.2. Section References. Each reference to a particular section set forth in this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture shall, unless the context otherwise requires, refer to this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture.

ARTICLE II

TITLE AND TERMS OF SECURITIES

2.1 Title of the Securities. This Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture hereby establishes a series of Securities designated as the “4.400% Senior Notes due 2031” of the Issuer (the “Notes”). For purposes of the Original Indenture, the Notes shall constitute a single series of Securities.

-4-

2.2 Term of the Notes. The Notes shall mature on July 25, 2031 (the “Stated Maturity”). In the event that the Stated Maturity of any Note is not a Business Day, principal and interest payable at maturity shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same effect as if that Business Day were the Stated Maturity and no interest shall accrue or be payable for the period from and after the Stated Maturity to the next succeeding Business Day.

2.3 Amount and Denominations; Currency of Payment. The aggregate principal amount in which the Notes may be initially issued under this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture is limited to $600,000,000. The Issuer, without the consent of the Holders thereof, may issue additional Notes from time to time after the date hereof; provided that such additional Notes must have the same ranking, interest rate, maturity and other terms as the initially issued Notes. Any additional Notes shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Notes then outstanding, except for issue date, authentication date, issue price and, if applicable, first interest payment date.

The Notes shall be issued in the form of one or more Registered Global Securities in the name of Cede & Co., as registered owner and nominee for The Depository Trust Company, New York, New York (“DTC”). DTC shall initially act as Depositary for the Notes.

The Notes shall be denominated in United States dollars in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

2.4 Interest and Interest Rates. Each Note shall bear interest at the rate of 4.400% per annum from the date of issue or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined in Section 2.5 below) to which interest on such Note has been paid or duly provided for, commencing with the Interest Payment Date next succeeding the date of issue, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest shall be payable to the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date (as defined in Section 2.5 below) next preceding an Interest Payment Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Note is originally issued after the Regular Record Date and before the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the first payment of interest on the Note shall be made on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date to the Person in whose name that Note was registered on the Regular Record Date with respect to such next succeeding Interest Payment Date. Interest on each Note shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprising twelve 30-day months. All dollar amounts resulting from this calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent.

2.5 Interest Payments. The interest payment dates for each Note shall be January 25 and July 25, in each year (the “Interest Payment Dates”), beginning July 25, 2026, and the regular record dates shall be the January 10 or July 10, whether or not a Business Day (the “Regular Record Dates”) preceding those Interest Payment Dates, respectively. Interest shall also be payable at maturity of any Note.

If an Interest Payment Date with respect to the Notes would otherwise fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day with respect to the Notes and no interest shall accrue or be payable on such next succeeding Business Day for the period from and after such original Interest Payment Date to such next succeeding Business Day.

Except as provided in the immediately preceding paragraph, interest payments shall be in the amount of interest accrued to, but excluding, the Interest Payment Date.

-5-

2.6 Place of Payment, Transfer and Exchange. The Issuer authorizes and appoints the Trustee as the sole paying agent (the “Paying Agent”) with respect to any Notes represented by Registered Global Securities, without prejudice to the Issuer’s authority to appoint additional paying agents from time to time pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Original Indenture. Payments of principal on each Note and interest thereon payable at maturity or upon redemption shall be made in immediately available funds in such currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, at the request of the Holder, at the office or agency of the Paying Agent in New York, New York or any other duly appointed Paying Agent, provided that the Note is presented to the Paying Agent in time for the Paying Agent to make the payments in immediately available funds in accordance with its normal procedures. So long as any Notes are represented by a Registered Global Security, interest (other than interest payable at maturity or upon redemption) shall be paid in immediately available funds by wire transfer to the Depositary for such Notes, on the written order of the Depositary. In addition, the Issuer may maintain an agent, in such location or locations as the Issuer may select, to provide the Holders with an office at which they may present the Notes for payment. The Issuer hereby acknowledges that any such agent so maintained will accept Notes for presentment, take payment instructions from the Holder and forward the Notes presented and any related payment instructions to the Paying Agent by overnight courier, for next day delivery. Notes presented as set forth in the previous sentence shall be deemed to be presented to the Paying Agent on the Business Day next succeeding the day the Notes are delivered to such agent. Payment of interest (other than interest payable in accordance with the preceding provisions of this paragraph) will, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Original Indenture, be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security register as of the applicable Regular Record Date or, at the option of the Issuer, by wire transfer to an account maintained by such Person with a bank located in the United States.

The Issuer appoints the Trustee as the sole Security registrar with respect to the Notes, without prejudice to the Issuer’s authority to appoint additional Security registrars from time to time pursuant to Section 2.8 of the Original Indenture. The Notes may be presented by the Holders thereof for registration of transfer or exchange at the office or agency of the Security registrar or any successor or co-registrar in New York, New York. In addition, the Issuer may maintain an agent, in such location or locations as the Issuer may select, to provide the Holders with an office at which they may present the Notes for registration of transfer or exchange. The Issuer hereby acknowledges that any such agent so maintained by the Issuer will accept Notes for registration of transfer or exchange and forward those Notes to the Security registrar by overnight courier, for next day delivery. Notes accepted as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be presented to the Security registrar on the Business Day next succeeding the day that Notes are delivered to such agent.

2.7 No Sinking Fund. The Notes shall not be subject to any sinking fund.

-6-

2.8 Redemption at the Option of the Issuer. Prior to June 25, 2031 (the “Par Call Date”), the Issuer may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(1)

(a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 15 basis points, less (b) unpaid interest accrued to the date of redemption, and

(2)

100% of the principal amount of the Notes,

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

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

As used in this Section 2.8 only, the terms set forth below shall have the following respective meanings:

“Business Day” means any day which is a day that is not a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday in which banking institutions are authorized or required by law to close in New York, New York.

“Remaining Life” means, with respect to any redemption date, the period from such redemption date to the Par Call Date.

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

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Issuer after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities—Treasury constant maturities—Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Issuer shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life; or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields—one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life—and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

-7-

If on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date H.15 TCM is no longer published, the Issuer shall calculate the Treasury Rate based on the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding such redemption date of the United States Treasury security maturing on, or with a maturity that is closest to, the Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally distant from the Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the Par Call Date, the Issuer shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the Par Call Date or two or more United States Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Issuer shall select from among these two or more United States Treasury securities the United States Treasury security that is trading closest to par based upon the average of the bid and asked prices for such United States Treasury securities at 11:00 a.m., New York City time. In determining the Treasury Rate in accordance with the terms of this paragraph, the semi-annual yield to maturity of the applicable United States Treasury security shall be based upon the average of the bid and asked prices (expressed as a percentage of principal amount) at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, of such United States Treasury security, and rounded to three decimal places.

The Issuer’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Notice of any redemption will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a corporate transaction that is pending (including an equity offering or an incurrence of indebtedness, but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, a Change of Control (as defined below) that constitutes a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined below)) may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion of the transaction. If such redemption is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied or otherwise waived by the redemption date. The Issuer will notify Holders of any such rescission as soon as practicable after it determines that it will not be able to satisfy or otherwise waive such condition precedent. Once notice of redemption is mailed or sent, subject to the satisfaction of any conditions precedent provided in the notice of redemption, the Notes called for redemption will become due and payable on the redemption date and at the redemption price, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.

-8-

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed. A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Note upon surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by DTC (or another depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of DTC or such other depositary.

Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

2.9 Change of Control Repurchase Event. If a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes as described in Section 2.8 or has defeased the Notes pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Original Indenture, the Issuer will be required to make an irrevocable offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to or in excess of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following a Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to a Change of Control (as defined below), but in either case, after the public announcement of the Change of Control, the Issuer will give, or shall cause to be given, a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event, offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is given, disclosing that any Note not tendered for repurchase will continue to accrue interest, and specifying the procedures for tendering Notes. The notice shall, if given prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. The Issuer must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached the obligations of the Issuer under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

On the repurchase date following a Change of Control Repurchase Event, the Issuer will be required, to the extent lawful, to: (i) accept for payment all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer; (ii) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the aggregate purchase price in respect of all Notes or portions of Notes properly tendered; and (iii) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes properly accepted, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Notes being purchased.

The Paying Agent will promptly distribute to each Holder of Notes properly tendered the purchase price for the Notes deposited by the Issuer. The Issuer will execute, and the Authenticating Agent will promptly authenticate and deliver (or cause to be transferred by book-entry) to each Holder a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of any Notes surrendered provided that each new Note will be in a principal amount of an integral multiple of $1,000. The Issuer will not be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer made by the Issuer and such third party purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

As used in this Section 2.9, the terms set forth below shall have the following respective meanings:

“Below Investment Grade Ratings Event” means that on any day during the period (the “Trigger Period”) commencing 60 days prior to the first public announcement by the Issuer of any Change of Control (or pending Change of Control) and ending 60 days following consummation of such Change of Control (which Trigger Period will be extended following consummation of a Change of Control for up to an additional 60 days for so long as any of the Rating Agencies (as defined below) has publicly announced that it is considering a possible ratings change), the Notes cease to be rated Investment Grade (as defined below) by at least two of the three Rating Agencies. Unless at least two of the three Rating Agencies are providing a rating for the Notes at the commencement of any Trigger Period, the Notes will be deemed to have ceased to be rated Investment Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies during that Trigger Period.

-10-

liquidation or dissolution of the Issuer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed to involve a Change of Control if (1) the Issuer becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company and (2)(A) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of such holding company immediately following that transaction are substantially the same as the holders of the Voting Stock of the Issuer immediately prior to that transaction or (B) immediately following that transaction no Person (other than a holding company satisfying the requirements of this sentence) is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Voting Stock of such holding company.

“Change of Control Repurchase Event” means the occurrence of both a Change of Control and a Below Investment Grade Ratings Event for the Notes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control Repurchase Event will be deemed to have occurred in connection with any particular Change of Control unless and until such Change of Control has actually been consummated.

“Continuing Directors” means, as of any date of determination, any member of the Board of Directors who (1) was a member of the Board of Directors on the date the Notes were issued or (2) was nominated for election, elected or appointed to the Board of Directors with the approval of a majority of the Continuing Directors who were members of the Board of Directors at the time of such nomination, election or appointment (either by a specific vote or by approval of the proxy statement of the Issuer in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director, without objection to such nomination).

“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings Inc., a subsidiary of Fimalac, S.A., and its successors.

“Investment Grade” means a rating of Baa3 or higher by ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of ▇▇▇▇▇’▇); a rating of BBB- or higher by S&P (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of S&P); and a rating of BBB- or higher by Fitch (or its equivalent under any successor rating categories of Fitch).

“▇▇▇▇▇’▇” means ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Ratings, Inc., a subsidiary of ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Corporation and its successors.

“Rating Agency” means each of ▇▇▇▇▇’▇, S&P and Fitch; provided, that if any of Moody’s, S&P and Fitch ceases to provide rating services to issuers or investors, the Issuer may appoint a replacement for such Rating Agency that is a “nationally recognized statistical rating agency” as defined in the Exchange Act.

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

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

2.10 Form and Other Terms of the Notes. Attached hereto as Annex A is a form of a Note denominated in United States dollars, which form is hereby established as a form in which Notes may be issued. In addition, any Note may be issued in such other form as may be provided by, or not inconsistent with, the terms of the Original Indenture and this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture.

2.11 Appointment. The Trustee will be the Trustee for the Notes under the Original Indenture as supplemented by this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture (referred to as the “Indenture”).

(b) It is the intention of each Subsidiary Guarantor that its Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Bankruptcy Law, the Uniform Voidable Transactions Act or any similar federal or state law to the extent applicable to its Guarantee. To effectuate the foregoing intention, the amount guaranteed by each Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, result in the Obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. For purposes hereof, “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11 of the U.S. Code, or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors.

(c) Following the date of this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture, prior to the guarantee of any previously Outstanding Securities issued pursuant to the Original Indenture or the initial issuance of Securities that are to be guaranteed, in either case by a Person that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor (or, if provided by the terms of the Original Indenture, a successor to a Subsidiary Guarantor), the parties hereto and such Person shall enter into a supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Original Indenture whereby such Person shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor under this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture.

3.3 Ranking. Each Subsidiary Guarantor covenants and agrees that its obligation to make payments of the Obligations hereunder constitutes a senior unsecured obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor ranking pari passu with all existing and future unsecured indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor.

If any amount shall be paid to such Subsidiary Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence at any time prior to the cash payment in full of the Obligations and all other amounts payable under the Guarantees, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders of any Notes and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee, to be credited and applied to the Obligations and all other amounts payable under its Guarantee, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Indenture (including the Guarantees), or be held as collateral for any Obligations or other amounts payable under the Guarantees thereafter arising.

-14-

Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Indenture (including its Guarantee) and that the waiver set forth in this Section 3.4 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.

3.5 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right under this Article III shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right under this Article III preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies provided in this Article III are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

3.6 Continuing Guarantee; Transfer of Interest. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s Guarantee is a continuing guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the earliest to occur of (i) the date, if any, on which such Subsidiary Guarantor shall consolidate with or merge into the Issuer or any successor thereto, (ii) the date, if any, on which the Issuer or any successor thereto shall consolidate with or merge into such Subsidiary Guarantor and (iii) payment in full of the Obligations, (b) be binding upon such Subsidiary Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by any Holder of Notes, the Trustee, and by their respective successors, transferees, and assigns. Each Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection.

3.7 Reinstatement. The Guarantees shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any Holder of Notes or the Trustee upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

3.8 Severability; Amendment. If any provision or any application of this Article III shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not be affected or impaired thereby. Each Subsidiary Guarantor may amend the provisions of this Article III with respect to such Subsidiary Guarantor at any time for any purpose without the consent of the Trustee or any Holder of Notes; provided, however, that if such amendment adversely affects (a) the rights of the Trustee or (b) any Holder of Notes, then (i) the prior written consent of the Trustee (in the case of (b), acting at the written direction of the Holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes) shall be required and (ii) such Subsidiary Guarantor shall give written notice of any such change to any nationally recognized statistical ratings organization that, at the time such amendment is put into effect, has provided then-current ratings applicable to any of the Obligations.

3.9 Notices. All communications and notices to any Guarantor hereunder shall be made in writing and deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted to the Issuer in accordance with the Original Indenture.

ARTICLE IV

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

4.1 Trustee and Paying Agent. The Trustee makes no undertaking or representation in respect of, and shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for and in respect of, the validity or sufficiency of the Notes, any Guarantee, this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture or the proper authorization or the due execution hereof by the Issuer or any Subsidiary Guarantor or for or in respect of the recitals and statements contained herein, all of which recitals and statements are made solely by the Issuer.

4.2 Effect of Amendment. Except as expressly amended hereby, the Original Indenture, as heretofore amended and supplemented, shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with the provisions thereof and the Original Indenture is in all respects hereby ratified and confirmed. This Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture and all its provisions shall be deemed a part of the Original Indenture in the manner and to the extent herein and therein provided. Notwithstanding anything in the Original Indenture or this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture to the contrary, to the extent any provisions of this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture or any Notes issued hereunder shall conflict with any provision of the Original Indenture, the provisions of this Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture or the Notes, as applicable, shall control with respect to the Notes but not any other series of Securities.

4.3 Governing Law. THIS FORTY-EIGHTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

4.4 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO (AND EACH NOTEHOLDER BY ACCEPTANCE OF A NOTE) HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS FORTY-EIGHTH SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, THE ORIGINAL INDENTURE, THE NOTES, THE GUARANTEES OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

4.5 Instructions. The Trustee shall have the right to accept and act upon instructions, including funds transfer instructions (“Instructions”) given pursuant to the Indenture and delivered using the following communications methods: S.W.I.F.T., e-mail, facsimile transmission, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Trustee, or another method or system specified by the Trustee as available for use in connection with its services hereunder (collectively, “Electronic Means”); provided, however, that the Issuer shall provide to the Trustee an incumbency certificate listing officers with the authority to provide such Instructions (“Authorized Officers”) and containing specimen signatures of such Authorized Officers, which incumbency certificate shall be amended by the Issuer whenever a Person is to be added or deleted from the listing. If the Issuer elects to give the Trustee Instructions using Electronic Means and the Trustee in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, the Trustee’s understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. The Issuer understands and agrees that the Trustee cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Trustee shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Trustee have been sent by such Authorized Officer. The Issuer shall be

-16-

responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Trustee and that the Issuer and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by the Issuer. The Trustee shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from the Trustee’s reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Issuer agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Trustee, including without limitation the risk of the Trustee acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Trustee and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by the Issuer; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Trustee immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures.

4.6 FATCA Withholding Tax. The Issuer hereby covenants with the Trustee and each Paying Agent that it will provide the Trustee and such Paying Agent with sufficient information so as to enable the Trustee and such Paying Agent to determine whether or not each of the Trustee and such Paying Agent, respectively, is obliged, in respect of any payments to be made by it pursuant to the Indenture, to make any withholding or deduction pursuant to an agreement described in Section 1471(b) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, any regulations or other official guidance thereunder (the “Code”) or otherwise imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code and any regulations, or agreements thereunder or official interpretations thereof or any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and another jurisdiction facilitating the implementation thereof (or any law implementing such an intergovernmental agreement). The Trustee and each Paying Agent shall be entitled to make any withholding or deduction pursuant to an agreement described in Section 1471(b) of the Code or otherwise imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any regulations or agreements thereunder or official interpretations thereof) or any intergovernmental agreement between the United States and another jurisdiction facilitating the implementation thereof (or any law implementing such an intergovernmental agreement) (collectively, “FATCA Withholding Tax”), and shall have no obligation to gross-up any payment hereunder or to pay any additional amount as a result of such FATCA Withholding Tax.

This Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Payment of interest (other than interest payable in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph) will, subject to certain exceptions provided in the Indenture referred to herein, be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security register as of the applicable Regular Record Date or, at the option of the Issuer, by wire transfer to an account maintained by such Person with a bank located in the United States.

Prior to June 25, 2031 (the “Par Call Date”), the Issuer may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of: (1) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed discounted to the redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 15 basis points, less (b) unpaid interest accrued to the date of redemption, and (2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date.

As used in this paragraph and in the immediately three preceding paragraphs only, the terms set forth below shall have the following respective meanings:

“Business Day” means any day which is a day that is not a Saturday or Sunday or a legal holiday in which banking institutions are authorized or required by law to close in New York, New York.

“Remaining Life” means, with respect to any redemption date, the period from such redemption date to the Par Call Date.

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

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Issuer after 4:15 p.m., New York City time (or after such time as yields on U.S. government securities are posted daily by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), on the third Business Day preceding the redemption date based upon the yield or yields for the most recent day that appear after such time on such day in the most recent statistical release published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System designated as “Selected Interest Rates (Daily)—H.15” (or any successor designation or publication) (“H.15”) under the caption “U.S. government securities—Treasury constant maturities—Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the Treasury Rate, the Issuer shall select, as applicable: (1) the yield for the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life; or (2) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 exactly equal to the Remaining Life, the two yields—one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately shorter than and one yield corresponding to the Treasury constant maturity on H.15 immediately longer than the Remaining Life—and shall interpolate to the Par Call Date on a straight-line basis (using the actual number of days) using such yields and rounding the result to three decimal places; or (3) if there is no such Treasury constant maturity on H.15 shorter than or longer than the Remaining Life, the yield for the single Treasury constant maturity on H.15 closest to the Remaining Life. For purposes of this paragraph, the applicable Treasury constant maturity or maturities on H.15 shall be deemed to have a maturity date equal to the relevant number of months or years, as applicable, of such Treasury constant maturity from the redemption date.

The Issuer’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

If a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Issuer has exercised its right to redeem the Notes as described above or has defeased the Notes pursuant to Section 10.1 of the Indenture referred to herein, the Issuer will be required to make an irrevocable offer to each Holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to or in excess of $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes at a repurchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to, but excluding, the date of repurchase. Within 30 days following a Change of Control Repurchase Event or, at the Issuer’s option, prior to a Change of Control (as defined below), but in either case, after the public announcement of the Change of Control, the Issuer will give, or shall cause to be given, a notice to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, describing the transaction or transactions that constitute or may constitute the Change of Control Repurchase Event, offering to repurchase Notes on the payment date specified in the notice, which date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is given, disclosing that any Note not tendered for repurchase will continue to accrue

interest, and specifying the procedures for tendering Notes. The notice shall, if given prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the offer to purchase is conditioned on a Change of Control Repurchase Event occurring on or prior to the payment date specified in the notice. The Issuer must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Repurchase Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes, the Issuer will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached the obligations of the Issuer under the Change of Control Repurchase Event provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

As used in this paragraph and in the three immediately preceding paragraphs, the terms set forth below shall have the following respective meanings:

“Fitch” means Fitch Ratings Inc., a subsidiary of Fimalac, S.A., and its successors.

“▇▇▇▇▇’▇” means ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Ratings, Inc., a subsidiary of ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Corporation and its successors.

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

The Notes are not subject to any sinking fund.

REFERENCE IS ▇▇▇▇▇▇ MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET FORTH IN FULL ON THE REVERSE HEREOF, WHICH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS IF SET FORTH IN FULL AT THIS PLACE.

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof, directly or through an Authenticating Agent, by manual signature of an authorized signatory, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture referred to herein or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

4.400% Senior Note due 2031

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Issuer (the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture dated as of June 15, 1995 by and between the Issuer and First Union National Bank as trustee, with The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor trustee (the “Original Indenture”), as supplemented by a Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 17, 2012 (the “Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture”) and a Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture dated as of February 13, 2026 (the “Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Original Indenture and the Thirteenth Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors (as defined in the Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture) and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee thereunder solely with respect to the Notes in lieu of The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (the “Trustee”), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the Trustee and the Holders of the 4.400% Senior Notes due 2031 of the Issuer (the “Notes”) and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The acceptance of this Note shall be deemed to constitute the consent and agreement of the Holder hereof to all the terms and conditions of the Indenture. This Note is a Security of the series designated on the face hereof, which series is initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $600,000,000. To secure the due and punctual payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes and any other amounts payable by the Issuer under the Indenture and the Notes when and as the same shall be due and payable, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of this Note and the Indenture, the Subsidiary Guarantors have unconditionally guaranteed the Obligations (as defined in the Forty-Eighth Supplemental Indenture) on a senior basis pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Events of Default are defined in the Indenture and generally include: (i) default for 30 days in payment of any interest on the Notes; (ii) default in any payment of principal on any of the Notes when due and payable; (iii) failure on the part of the Issuer duly to observe or perform any of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Issuer in the Securities or in the Indenture which shall not have been remedied within 90 days after written notice by the Trustee or by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series affected thereby; or (iv) certain events involving bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each such affected series of then Outstanding Securities (voting as a single class) may declare the entire principal of all Securities of all such affected series, and the interest accrued thereon, if any, to be immediately due and payable, except that, in the case of an Event of Default arising from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer, the principal and interest on the Securities shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Subject to certain limitations, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of

the Securities of each series affected (with all such series voting as a single class) at the time Outstanding shall have the right to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to the Securities of such series by the Indenture, provided that the Trustee may decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee determines the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if the Trustee in good faith shall determine that the action or proceeding so directed would involve the Trustee in personal liability or if the Trustee in good faith shall so determine that the actions or forbearances specified in or pursuant to such direction would be unduly prejudicial to the interest of Holders of the Securities of all series so affected not joining in the giving of said direction. The Trustee may withhold from Holders notice of any continuing default (except a default in payment of principal or interest) if it determines that withholding notice is in their best interests. The Indenture requires the Issuer to furnish an annual compliance certificate to the Trustee.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the Trustee to modify the Indenture or any supplemental indenture without the consent of the Holders for one or more of the following purposes (as more particularly set forth in the Indenture): (1) to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property or assets to the Trustee as security for the Securities of one or more series; (2) to evidence the succession of another entity to the Issuer; (3) to add to the covenants of the Issuer or add Events of Default for the benefit of Holders; (4) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision of the Indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision of the Indenture, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture as shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders in any material respect; (5) to establish the form or terms of Securities of any series as permitted by Sections 2.1 and 2.3 of the Indenture; and (6) to evidence the appointment of a successor Trustee.

The Indenture also permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding of each series to be affected (voting as a single class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time Outstanding with respect to which a default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (voting as a single class), on behalf of the Holders of all such Securities, to waive certain past defaults and Events of Default 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 Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange for or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

Without the consent of each Holder of each Note so effected, the Issuer may not extend the final maturity of any Note, or reduce the rate (or alter the method of computation) of interest thereon or extend the time for payment thereof, or reduce (or alter the method of computation of) any amount payable on redemption or repayment thereof or extend the time for payment thereof, or make the principal thereof or interest thereon (including any amount in respect of original issue discount) payable in any coin or currency other than that provided in the Notes or in accordance with the terms thereof, or reduce the amount that would be due and payable upon an acceleration of the maturity of any Note, or impair or affect the right of any Holder to institute suit for the payment thereof.

A supplemental indenture that changes or eliminates any covenant or other provision of the Indenture which has expressly been included solely for the benefit of one or more particular series of Securities, or which modifies the rights of Holders of Securities of such series, or of Coupons appertaining to such Securities, with respect to such covenant provision, shall be deemed not to affect the rights under the Indenture of Holders of Securities of any other series or of the Coupons appertaining to such Securities.

As set forth in, and subject to the provisions of, the Indenture, no Holder of any Note will have any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy thereunder, unless (1) such Holder shall have previously given to the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Notes, (2) the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request, and offered reasonable indemnity, to the Trustee to institute such proceeding as trustee, (3) the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such request and (4) the Trustee shall have failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days; provided, however, that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal of or any interest on this Note on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note, as described on the face hereof, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Notes are issuable only in fully registered form and are represented either by one or more global certificates registered in the name of a depositary or in the name of its nominee or by a certificate or certificates registered in the name of the beneficial owner(s) of such Notes or its or their nominee(s). The Notes are issuable in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 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 and of like tenor of any authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set forth in the Indenture or this Note, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer or exchange at the office or agency of the Security registrar or any successor or co-registrar in New York, New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder hereof 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. The Issuer shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of (a) any Notes for a period of 15 days next preceding the first giving of notice of redemption of the Notes, or (b) the Notes selected, called or being called for redemption, in whole or in part, except, in the case of any Note to be redeemed in part, the portion thereof not so to be redeemed.

In addition, the Issuer may maintain an agent, in such location or locations as the Issuer may select, to provide the Holders with an office at which they may present the Notes for registration of transfer or exchange. Notes accepted as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to be presented to the Security registrar on the Business Day next succeeding the day that Notes are delivered to such agent.

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

Subject to the terms of the Indenture, prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer 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 is overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Note or of certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Note, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture. The Indenture with respect to the Notes shall be discharged and canceled upon the payment of all of the Notes and shall be discharged except for certain obligations upon the irrevocable deposit with the Trustee of any combination of funds and U.S. Government Obligations sufficient for such payment.

In the case of any conflict between the provisions of this Note and the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture shall control.

THE INDENTURE AND THE NOTES SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

As provided in the Indenture, no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture, or in this Note, or because of any indebtedness evidenced hereby, shall be had against any incorporator, as such, or against any past, present or future stockholder, officer, director or employee, as such, of the Issuer or of any successor, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being, by acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.
