(REVERSE OF NOTE)

INTEL CORPORATION

Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2022

1. Interest.

Intel Corporation (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum described above. Cash 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 May 11, 2017, to but excluding the next Interest Payment Date; provided that if an Interest Payment Date for the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day unless such next succeeding Business Day would be in the following month, in which case, the Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day. The Issuer will pay interest quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing August 11, 2017, to the person in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding Record Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in an interest period and a 360-day year.

The interest rate for the Floating Rate Initial Interest Period shall be 1.532%.

Thereafter, the interest rate for the Notes will be equal to three-month LIBOR as determined by the Calculation Agent on the Floating Rate Interest Determination Date plus 0.35%. The Floating Rate Interest Determination Date for a Floating Rate Interest Period will be the second London Business Day preceding the first day of such Floating Rate Interest Period. Promptly upon determination, the Calculation Agent will inform the Trustee and the Issuer of the interest rate for the next Floating Rate Interest Period.

Absent manifest error, the determination of the interest rate by the Calculation Agent shall be binding and conclusive on the Holders, the Trustee and the Issuer.

A London Business Day is a day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market (“London Business Day”).

With respect to any Floating Rate Interest Determination Date, three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR shall be equal to the offered rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having an index maturity of three months, as such rate appears on the Reuters Page LIBOR 01 (or on such other page as may replace Reuters Page LIBOR 01 on that service, or such other service or services as may be nominated for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”) or its successor or such other entity assuming the responsibility of IBA or its successor in calculating LIBOR in the event IBA or its successor no longer does so), as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Floating Rate Interest Determination Date. If three-month LIBOR does not appear on either of the pages described above, three-month LIBOR, in respect of such Floating Rate Interest Determination Date, will be determined as follows: the Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market, as selected by the Issuer (after consultation with the Calculation Agent), to provide the Calculation Agent

 

R-1


with its offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of three months for the applicable Floating Rate Interest Period to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on that Floating Rate Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time. If at least two quotations are provided, then three-month LIBOR on such Floating Rate Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, then three-month LIBOR on such Floating Rate Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Floating Rate Interest Determination Date by three major reference banks in New York City selected by the Issuer (after consultation with the Calculation Agent) for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, having an index maturity of three months and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks selected by the Issuer (after consultation with the Calculation Agent) are not providing quotations in the manner described by this sentence, three-month LIBOR determined as of such Floating Rate Interest Determination Date will be three-month LIBOR in effect prior to such Floating Rate Interest Determination Date.

All percentages resulting from any calculation of any interest rate for the Notes will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 3.876545% (or .03876545) would be rounded to 3.87655% (or .0387655)), and all U.S. dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent being rounded upward. Each calculation of the interest rate on any Notes by the Calculation Agent will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding on the holders of such Notes and the Issuer.

Upon written request from any Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate in effect on such Notes for the current Floating Rate Interest Period and, if it has been determined, the interest rate to be in effect for the next Floating Rate Interest Period.

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and at the same rate on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from the dates such amounts are due until such amounts are paid or made available for payment.

2. Paying Agent; Calculation Agent.

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent and Calculation Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent or Calculation Agent without notice to the Holders.

This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture. Each series of Securities issued under the Ninth Supplemental Indenture (together with any other Securities thereafter issued and included in any such series) is referred to herein as an “Other Series of 2017 Notes” and, together with the Notes, as the “2017 Notes.”

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. 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 of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”) as in effect on the date on which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern.

4. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange.

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder shall register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Issuer may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Issuer need not issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portions thereof for a period of fifteen (15) days before the electronic delivery or mailing of a notice of redemption, nor need the Issuer register the transfer or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part.

5. Amendment; Modification; Waiver.

The Indenture 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 each series of 2017 Notes 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 2017 Notes at the time Outstanding of all series of 2017 Notes affected thereby. The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Securities of a series at the time Outstanding with respect to which a default under the Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive, with certain exceptions, such past default with respect to such series and its consequences. The Indenture also permits the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal

 

R-3


amount of the 2017 Notes at the time Outstanding of all series of 2017 Notes (voting together as a single class), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive future compliance by the Issuer with certain provisions of the Indenture. 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 therefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the Indenture also permits the amendment or supplement thereof to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with qualifications of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of Holders in any material respect.

6. No Optional Redemption.

The Issuer may not redeem the Notes prior to their Stated Maturity

7. Defaults and Remedies.

If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes occurs and is continuing, then in every such case the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes may declare the principal amount of all the Notes to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount (or specified amount) shall become immediately due and payable.

The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Notes.
