NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Securities by the Holders thereof, it is mutually agreed, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Notes (as hereinafter defined), as follows:

ARTICLE 1

CREATION OF THE NOTES

Section 1.01. Designation of Series. Pursuant to the terms hereof and Section 301 of the Indenture, the Company hereby creates a series of Securities designated as the “3.250% Senior Notes due 2051” (the “Notes”), which Notes shall be deemed “Securities” for all purposes under the Indenture.

Section 1.02. Form of Note; Denomination. The Notes shall be substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto, which is incorporated herein and made part hereof. The Stated Maturity of the principal amount of the Notes shall be August 15, 2051. The Company will issue the Notes in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Section 1.03. Limit on Amount of Series. The Notes shall not exceed U.S.$500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, and may, upon the execution and delivery of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture or from time to time thereafter, be executed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall thereupon authenticate and deliver said Notes upon a Company Order and delivery of an Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel as contemplated by Section 303 of the Indenture, as amended hereby. The Company may, from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the holders of the Notes, increase the principal amount of the series of Securities created hereby (in excess of U.S. $500,000,000 in aggregate principal amount) and issue such increased principal amount (or any portion thereof), in which case any additional notes so issued will have the same form and terms (other than the date of issuance, the issue price and, under certain circumstances, the initial date from which interest thereon will begin to accrue), and will carry the same right to receive accrued and unpaid interest, as the Notes, and such additional notes will form a single series with the Notes.

Section 1.04. Interest. The Company shall pay interest on the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at 3.250% per annum until the principal amount of the Notes is paid or made available for payment. The Company shall pay interest, semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, commencing on February 15, 2022 (each an “Interest Payment Date”) and such interest shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from August 13, 2021. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any bankruptcy law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

-2-

Interest, including interest payable at Stated Maturity, shall be payable at the office of the Company maintained by the Company for such purposes, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office, and may, as the Company shall specify to the Paying Agent in writing by each Regular Record Date, be paid either (i) by check mailed or delivered to the Holders of the Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account previously specified in writing by the Holder to the Company and the Trustee; provided, however, that payments to the Depositary will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.

Payment upon maturity or redemption of a Note will cause interest to cease to accrue on such Note. The Company cannot reissue a Note that has matured or been redeemed or otherwise cancelled, except for registration of transfer, exchange or replacement of such Note.

Section 1.05. Certificate of Authentication. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication to be borne on the Notes shall be substantially as provided in the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A.

Section 1.06. No Sinking Fund. No sinking fund will be provided with respect to the Notes.

Section 1.07. Issuance in Global Form. The Notes shall be issued as one or more Global Notes, representing the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, and shall be deposited with the Trustee as custodian for the Depositary. The Notes shall be registered in the name of Cede & Co., or other nominee of the Depositary.

Section 1.08. Other Terms of Notes. The other terms of the Notes shall be as expressly set forth in Article 1, Article 2, Article 3, Article 4, Article 5, Article 6 and Article 7 hereof and Exhibit A hereto.

The words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Fifth Supplemental Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other subdivision.

-3-

“Depositary” means The Depository Trust Company, 00 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx.

“Global Note” means a Security that evidences all or part of the Notes and bears the legend set forth in the Form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A.

“Independent Investment Banker” means BMO Capital Markets Corp., Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co. LLC, U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc. or Xxxxx Fargo Securities, LLC, as specified by the Company, or, if these firms are unwilling or unable to select the comparable treasury issue, an independent investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Company.

For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Notes and to have satisfied all its other obligations under the Notes, this Fifth Supplemental Indenture and the Indenture insofar as the Notes are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments (in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) acknowledging the same), subject to the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (1) the rights of Holders of Notes to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 7.04 and as more fully set forth in such Section, payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes when payments are due, (2) the Company’s obligations with respect to the Notes under Sections 304, 305, 306, 1002 and 1003 of the Indenture, (3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (4) this Article.

-8-

Section 3.01 of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture and any such covenants provided pursuant to Section 901(2) of the Indenture for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes) or Section 501(8) of the Indenture added by Section 5.02 of this Fifth Supplemental Indenture, shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of Default, in each case with respect to the Notes as provided in this Section on and after the date the conditions set forth in Section 7.04 below are satisfied (hereinafter called “Covenant Defeasance”). For this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Notes, the Company may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such specified Section (to the extent so specified in the case of Section 501(4) or 501(8) of the Indenture), whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such Section or by reason of any reference in any such Section to any other provision herein or in any other document, but the remainder of the Indenture, this Fifth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes shall be unaffected thereby.

Section 7.04. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following shall be the conditions to the application of Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 to the Notes:

(a) The Company shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee which satisfies the requirements contemplated by Section 609 of the Indenture and agrees to comply with the provisions of this Article applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefits of the Holders of the Notes, (A) money in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or any such other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of, premium, if any, and any installment of interest on the Notes on the respective Stated Maturities, in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, this Fifth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes. As used herein, “U.S. Government Obligation” means (x) any security which is (i) a direct obligation of the United States of America for the payment of which the full faith and credit of the United States of America is pledged or (ii) an obligation of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case (i) or (ii), is not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and (y) any depositary receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) as custodian with respect to any U.S. Government Obligation which is specified in clause (x) above and held by such bank for the account of the holder of such depositary receipt, or with respect to any specific payment of principal of or interest on any U.S. Government Obligation which is so specified and held, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depositary receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal or interest evidenced by such depositary receipt.

(b) In the event of an election to have Section 7.02 above apply to the Notes, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel stating that (A) the Company

-9-

has received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of this instrument, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the Holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, Defeasance and discharge to be effected with respect to the Notes and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit, Defeasance and discharge were not to occur.

(c) In the event of an election to have Section 7.03 above apply to the Notes, the Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the Holders of the Notes will not recognize gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and Covenant Defeasance to be effected with respect to the Notes and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amount, in the same manner and at the same times as would be the case if such deposit and Covenant Defeasance were not to occur.

(d) No event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such deposit or, with regard to any such event specified in Sections 501(5) and (6) of the Indenture, at any time on or prior to the 90th day after the date of such deposit (it being understood that this condition shall not be deemed satisfied until after such 90th day).

(e) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not cause the Trustee to have a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act with respect to any securities of the Company.

(f) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound.

(g) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel (which opinion may be subject to customary assumptions and exceptions) to the effect that after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally.

(h) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the deposit was not made by the Company with the intent of preferring the Holders of the Notes over the other creditors of the Company with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of the Company or others.

(i) No event or condition shall exist that would prevent the Company from making payments of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on the date of such deposit or at any time ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit.

(j) Such Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance shall not result in the trust arising from such deposit constituting an investment company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, unless such trust shall be registered under such Act or exempt from registration thereunder.

-10-

(k) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent under this Fifth Supplemental Indenture to either Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with.

Section 7.05. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in Trust; Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003 of the Indenture, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof) deposited with the Trustee or other qualifying trustee (solely for purposes of this Section and Section 7.06 below, the Trustee and any such other trustee are referred to collectively as the “Trustee”) pursuant to Section 7.04 above in respect of the Notes shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes, this Fifth Supplemental Indenture and the Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any such Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of the Notes, of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal and any premium and interest, but money so held in trust need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S. Government Obligations deposited pursuant to Section 7.04 above or the principal and interest received in respect thereof other than any such tax, fee or other charge which by law is for the account of the Holders of Notes.

Anything in this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall deliver or pay to the Company from time to time upon Company Request any money or U.S. Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 7.04 above with respect to the Notes which, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof which would then be required to be deposited to effect the Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance, as the case may be, with respect to the Notes.

Section 7.06. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or the Paying Agent is unable to apply any money in accordance with this Article with respect to any Note by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations under the Indenture, this Fifth Supplemental Indenture and the Notes from which the Company has been discharged or released pursuant to Section 7.02 or 7.03 above shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit had occurred pursuant to this Article with respect to such Note, until such time as the Trustee or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all money held in trust pursuant to Section 7.05 above with respect to such Note in accordance with this Article; provided, however, that if the Company makes any payment of principal of or any premium or interest on any such Note following such reinstatement of its obligations, the Company shall be subrogated to the rights (if any) of the Holders of such Note to receive such payment from the money so held in trust.

Capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.

1. INTEREST. Alleghany Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of the Notes at 3.250% per annum until the principal amount of the Notes is paid or made available for payment. The Company shall pay interest, semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (each an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on February 15, 2022. Interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from August 13, 2021. The Company shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any bankruptcy law) on overdue principal from time to time on demand at a rate equal to the per annum rate on the Notes then in effect; it shall pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any bankruptcy law) on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) from time to time on demand at the same rate to the extent lawful. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. Except as provided below, interest will be paid (i) on any Global Notes to DTC by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of DTC or its nominee and (ii) on any definitive Notes (A) by check mailed or delivered to the Holders of the Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the Security Register or (B) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account previous specified in writing by the Holder to the Company and the Trustee.

The Company may pay interest, including interest payable at Stated Maturity, on definitive Notes at the Company’s office or agency, which initially will be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in The City of New York.

Principal on definitive Notes will be payable, upon Stated Maturity or when due, at the office or agency of the Company, maintained for such purpose, initially the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in The City of New York.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, the Company will make payments in cash in respect of Redemption Prices and at Stated Maturity to Holders who surrender Notes to a Paying Agent to collect such payments in respect of the Notes. The Company will pay cash amounts in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.

The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act.

5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. At any time and from time to time, the Company may redeem in cash any portion of the Notes, in whole or in part, upon notice as set forth in Section 1104 of the Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (a) the principal amount of the Notes or (b) the sum, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (assuming for such purposes that the Notes mature on the Par Call Date (as defined below), and not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points, plus, in each case (a) and (b), accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The Treasury Rate will be calculated on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date. Additionally, at any time on or after February 15, 2051 (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon notice as set forth in Section 1104 of the Indenture, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to, but excluding, the date of redemption. The date of any redemption pursuant to this Section 5 is known as the “Redemption Date”.

As used in this Note the following terms have the definitions set forth herein:

“Calculation Date” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the third Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date.

A-5

“Redemption Price” means the redemption price of any Notes being redeemed pursuant to Section 5 hereof.

In the event the Company redeems less than all of the outstanding Notes, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee in accordance with Section 1103 of the Indenture. The Company may not give notice of any redemption if the Company has defaulted in payment of interest and the default is continuing.

6. NOTICE OF REDEMPTION. Notice of redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s address of record.

On and after redemption of a Note pursuant to Section 5 and 6, interest shall cease to accrue on such Note.

7. NO MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Company shall not be required to make mandatory redemption payments with respect to the Notes. There are no sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.

8. DENOMINATIONS; TRANSFER; EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Security Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.

9. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of this Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.

10. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Indenture, (i) the Fifth Supplemental Indenture or the Notes may be amended with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding and (ii) certain defaults under the Fifth Supplemental Indenture or the Notes may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding. Without the consent of any Holder of the Notes, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented, in addition to other events more fully described in the Indenture, to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in the Indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture, provided such other provisions as may be made shall not adversely affect the interests of the Holders of Securities of any series in any material respect, to establish the form or terms of the Securities, to evidence the succession of another corporation to the Company and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Company contained in the Indenture and to secure the Securities.

11. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. If any Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

12. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. Subject to certain limitations imposed by the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with and collect obligations owed to it by the Company or its Affiliates and may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.

13. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Company, as such, shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability including any rights against any such person in its capacity relating to the Company. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.
