THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC. 6.615% FIXED RATE/FLOATING RATE SENIOR NOTES DUE OCTOBER 20, 2027 REGISTERED CUSIP: 693475 BT1 No. ISIN: US693475BT12 $ THE PNC FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of Pennsylvania (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of $ on October 20, 2027, and to pay interest thereon (a) from, and including, October 20, 2023 to, but excluding, October 20, 2026 (the “Fixed Rate Period”) at the rate of 6.615% per annum, payable semiannually in arrears on April 20 and October 20of each year, commencing April 20, 2024 and ending on October 20, 2026 (each, a “Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date”), and (b) from, and including, October 20, 2026 to, but excluding, the maturity date (the “Floating Rate Period”), at a floating rate per annum equal to Compounded SOFR (determined with respect to each quarterly interest period using the SOFR Index as set forth herein) plus 1.730%, payable quarterly in arrears on January 20, 2027, April 20, 2027, July 20, 2027 and at the maturity date (each, a “Floating Rate Interest Payment Date” and, together with the Fixed Rate Interest Payment Dates, each, an “Interest Payment Date”), until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment, and (in each case, to the extent that the payment of such interest specified in (a) or (b) shall be legally enforceable), at the same rate per annum on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue installment of interest. Interest shall accrue from, and including, October 20, 2023 to, but excluding, the first Interest Payment Date and then from, and including, the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for to, but excluding, the next Interest Payment Date or the maturity date, as the case may be. Interest payable during the Fixed Rate Period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of accrued interest payable on this Security for each interest period during the Floating Rate Period will be computed by multiplying (x) the outstanding principal amount of this Security by (y) the product of (i) the interest rate for the relevant interest period multiplied by (ii) the quotient of the actual number of calendar days in the applicable Observation Period (as defined below) relating to such interest period (or any other relevant period) divided by 360. The interest rate on this Security during the Floating Rate Period will in no event be lower than zero. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date, subject to certain exceptions, will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the record date for such interest period, which shall be the 15th calendar day, whether or not a Business Day, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. However, interest payable on the maturity date will be paid to the person to whom the principal will be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such record date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of the Securities not less than 10 days prior to such record date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner acceptable to the Trustee and not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. The Company will pay interest in such coin or 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. If a Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date or the maturity date for the Senior Notes (as defined below) falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Company will postpone the interest payment or the payment of principal and interest at maturity to the next succeeding Business Day, but the payments made on such dates will be treated as being made on the date that the payment was first due and the Holder will not be entitled to any further interest or other payments with respect to such postponements. If a Floating Rate Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Company will postpone the interest payment to the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the next succeeding Business Day falls in the next calendar month, then such interest payment will be advanced to the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day and, in each case, the related interest periods also will be adjusted for such non-Business Days. The term “Business Day” means any day except a Saturday, a Sunday or a legal holiday in the City of New York or the City of Pittsburgh on which banking institutions are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities” or “Senior Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of September 6, 2012, as amended by that certain First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 23, 2021 (together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures

supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated above, initially issued in the aggregate principal amount of $1,250,000,000, and is subject to additional issuances as the Company may determine or as provided for in the Indenture. During the Floating Rate Period, the Calculation Agent (as defined below) will determine Compounded SOFR, the interest rate and accrued interest for each interest period in arrears as soon as reasonably practicable on or after the Interest Payment Determination Date (as defined below) for such interest period and prior to the relevant Floating Rate Interest Payment Date and will notify the Company of Compounded SOFR, such interest rate and accrued interest for each interest period as soon as reasonably practicable after such determination, but in any event by the Business Day immediately prior to the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date. At the request of the Holder, the Calculation Agent will provide Compounded SOFR, the interest rate and the amount of interest accrued with respect to any interest period during the Floating Rate Period, after Compounded SOFR, such interest rate and accrued interest have been determined. SOFR (as defined below) is published by the FRBNY (as defined below) and is intended to be a broad measure of the cost of borrowing cash overnight collateralized by U.S. Treasury securities. The SOFR Index (as defined below) measures the cumulative impact of compounding SOFR on a unit of investment over time, with the initial value set to 1.00000000 on April 2, 2018, the first value date of SOFR. The SOFR Index value reflects the effect of compounding SOFR each Business Day and allows the calculation of compounded SOFR averages over custom time periods. The FRBNY notes on its publication page for the SOFR Index that use of the SOFR Index is subject to important limitations, indemnification obligations and disclaimers, including that the FRBNY may alter the methods of calculation, publication schedule, rate revision practices or availability of the SOFR Index at any time without notice. The interest rate for any interest period during the Floating Rate Period will not be adjusted for any modifications or amendments to the SOFR Index or SOFR data that the FRBNY may publish after the interest rate for that interest period during the Floating Rate Period has been determined. With respect to any interest period during the Floating Rate Period, “Compounded SOFR” will be determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following formula (and the resulting percentage will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point): where: “SOFR IndexStart” = For periods other than the initial interest period during the Floating Rate Period, the SOFR Index value on the preceding Interest Payment Determination Date, and, for the initial interest period during the Floating Rate Period, the SOFR Index value on the date that is two U.S. Government Securities Business Days (as defined below) before the first day of such initial interest period during the Floating Rate Period (expected to be October 20, 2026); “SOFR IndexEnd” = The SOFR Index value on the Interest Payment Determination Date relating to the applicable Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (or in the final interest period, relating to the maturity date, or, in the case of the redemption of the Senior Notes during the Floating Rate Period, relating to the applicable redemption date); and “d” is the number of calendar days in the relevant Observation Period. For purposes of determining Compounded SOFR, “Interest Payment Determination Date” means the date two U.S. Government Securities Business Days before each Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (or, in the case of the redemption of the Senior Notes during the Floating Rate Period, preceding the applicable redemption date). “Observation Period” means, in respect of each interest period during the Floating Rate Period, the period from, and including, the date two U.S. Government Securities Business Days preceding the first date in such interest period to, but excluding, the date two U.S. Government Securities Business Days preceding the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date for such interest period (or in the final interest period, preceding the maturity date or, in the case of redemption of the Senior Notes, preceding the applicable redemption date).

“SOFR Index” means, with respect to any U.S. Government Securities Business Day: (1) the SOFR Index value as published by the SOFR Administrator (as defined below) as such index appears on the SOFR Administrator’s Website at 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on such U.S. Government Securities Business Day (the “SOFR Index Determination Time”); or: (2) if a SOFR Index value does not so appear as specified in (1) above at the SOFR Index Determination Time, then: (i) if a Benchmark Transition Event (as defined below) and its related Benchmark Replacement Date (as defined below) have not occurred with respect to SOFR, Compounded SOFR shall be the rate determined pursuant to the “SOFR Index Unavailable Provisions” set forth below; or (ii) if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to SOFR, Compounded SOFR shall be the rate determined pursuant to the “Effect of a Benchmark Transition Event” provisions set forth below. “SOFR” means the daily secured overnight financing rate as provided by the SOFR Administrator on the SOFR Administrator’s Website. “SOFR Administrator” means the FRBNY (or a successor administrator of SOFR). “SOFR Administrator’s Website” means the website of the FRBNY, currently at http://www.newyorkfed.org, or any successor source. “U.S. Government Securities Business Day” means any day except for a Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association or any successor organization recommends that the fixed income departments of its members be closed for the entire day for purposes of trading in U.S. government securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or this Security, if the Company or its designee determines on or prior to the relevant Reference Time (as defined below) that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to determining SOFR, then the benchmark replacement provisions set forth below under “Effect of Benchmark Transition Event” will thereafter apply to all determinations of the rate of interest payable on this Security. For the avoidance of doubt, in accordance with the benchmark replacement provisions, after a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred, the interest rate for each interest period during the Floating Rate Period will be an annual rate equal to the sum of the Benchmark Replacement (as defined below) plus 1.730%. SOFR Index Unavailable Provisions. If a SOFR IndexStart or SOFR IndexEnd is not published on the associated Interest Payment Determination Date and a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have not occurred with respect to SOFR, “Compounded SOFR” means, for the applicable interest period for which such index is not available, the rate of return on a daily compounded interest investment calculated in accordance with the formula for SOFR Averages, and definitions required for such formula, published on the SOFR Administrator’s Website at https://www.newyorkfed.org/markets/treasury-repo-reference-rates-information. For the purposes of this provision, references in the SOFR Averages compounding formula and related definitions to “calculation period” shall be replaced with “Observation Period” and the words “that is, 30-, 90-, or 180- calendar days” shall be removed. If SOFR (“SOFRi”) does not so appear for any day, “i” in the Observation Period, SOFRi for such day “i” shall be SOFR published in respect of the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which SOFR was published on the SOFR Administrator’s Website. Effect of a Benchmark Transition Event. (1) Benchmark Replacement. If the Company or its designee determines that a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred on or prior to the Reference Time in respect of any determination of the Benchmark (as defined below) on any date, the Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the Senior Notes in respect of such determination on such date and all determinations on all subsequent dates. (2) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Company or its designee will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes (as defined below) from time to time. (3) Decisions and Determinations. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Company or its designee pursuant to the benchmark replacement provisions set forth herein, including any

determination with respect to tenor, rate or adjustment, or the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection: • will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error; • if made by the Company, will be made in the Company’s sole discretion; • if made by the Company’s designee, will be made after consultation with the Company, and such designee will not make any such determination, decision or election to which the Company objects; and • notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or herein, shall become effective without consent from the Holder or any other party. Any determination, decision or election pursuant to the benchmark replacement provisions shall be made by the Company or its designee (which may be its affiliate) on the basis as set forth above, and in no event shall the Calculation Agent be responsible for making any such determination, decision or election. Certain Defined Terms. As used herein: “Benchmark” means, initially, Compounded SOFR, as such term is defined above; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to Compounded SOFR (or the published SOFR Index used in the calculation thereof) or the then-current Benchmark, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement. “Benchmark Replacement” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company or its designee as of the Benchmark Replacement Date; provided that if the Benchmark Replacement cannot be determined in accordance with clause (1) below as of the Benchmark Replacement Date and the Company or its designee shall have determined that the ISDA Fallback Rate (as defined below) determined in accordance with clause (2) below is not an industry-accepted rate of interest as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar-denominated floating rate notes at such time, then clause (2) below shall be disregarded, and the Benchmark Replacement shall be determined in accordance with clause (3) below: (1) the sum of: (a) an alternate rate of interest that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body (as defined below) as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment (as defined below); (2) the sum of: (a) the ISDA Fallback Rate and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment; or (3) the sum of: (a) the alternate rate of interest that has been selected by the Company or its designee as the replacement for the then-current Benchmark giving due consideration to any industry-accepted rate of interest as a replacement for the then-current Benchmark for U.S. dollar denominated floating rate notes at such time and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment. “Benchmark Replacement Adjustment” means the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Company or its designee as of the Benchmark Replacement Date: (1) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero), or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, that has been selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement (as defined below); (2) if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA Fallback Rate, the ISDA Fallback Adjustment (as defined below); or (3) the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that has been selected by the Company or its designee giving due consideration to any industry-accepted spread adjustment, or method for calculating or determining such spread adjustment, for the replacement of the then-current Benchmark with the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement for U.S. dollar denominated floating rate notes at such time. “Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes” means, with respect to any Benchmark Replacement, any technical, administrative or operational changes (including changes to the definitions or interpretations of interest period, the timing and frequency of determining rates and making payments of interest, the rounding of amounts or tenors, and other administrative matters) that the Company or its designee decides may be appropriate to reflect the adoption of such

Benchmark Replacement in a manner substantially consistent with market practice (or, if the Company or its designee decides that adoption of any portion of such market practice is not administratively feasible or if the Company or its designee determines that no market practice for use of the Benchmark Replacement exists, in such other manner as the Company or its designee determines is reasonably practicable). “Benchmark Replacement Date” means the earliest to occur of the following events with respect to the then-current Benchmark (including any daily published component used in the calculation thereof): (1) in the case of clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the later of (a) the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein and (b) the date on which the administrator of the Benchmark permanently or indefinitely ceases to provide the Benchmark (or such component); or (2) in the case of clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Transition Event,” the date of the public statement or publication of information referenced therein. For the avoidance of doubt, if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination. “Benchmark Transition Event” means the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to the then- current Benchmark (including the daily published component used in the calculation thereof): (1) a public statement or publication of information by or on behalf of the administrator of the Benchmark (or such component) announcing that such administrator has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark (or such component), permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark (or such component); or (2) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Benchmark (or such component), the central bank for the currency of the Benchmark (or such component), an insolvency official with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark (or such component), a resolution authority with jurisdiction over the administrator for the Benchmark (or such component) or a court or an entity with similar insolvency or resolution authority over the administrator for the Benchmark (or such component), which states that the administrator of the Benchmark (or such component) has ceased or will cease to provide the Benchmark (or such component) permanently or indefinitely, provided that, at the time of such statement or publication, there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide the Benchmark (or such component); or (3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of the Benchmark announcing that the Benchmark is no longer representative “Calculation Agent” means The Bank of New York Mellon, or its successor appointed by the Company, acting as calculation agent. “FRBNY” means the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. “ISDA Definitions” means the 2006 ISDA Definitions published by ISDA, or any successor thereto, as amended or supplemented from time to time, or any successor definitional booklet for interest rate derivatives published from time to time. “ISDA Fallback Adjustment” means the spread adjustment (which may be a positive or negative value or zero) that would apply for derivatives transactions referencing the ISDA Definitions to be determined upon the occurrence of an index cessation event with respect to the Benchmark for the applicable tenor. “ISDA Fallback Rate” means the rate that would apply for derivatives transactions referencing the ISDA Definitions to be effective upon the occurrence of an index cessation date with respect to the Benchmark for the applicable tenor excluding the applicable ISDA Fallback Adjustment. “Reference Time” with respect to any determination of the Benchmark means (1) if the Benchmark is Compounded SOFR, the SOFR Index Determination Time, as such time is defined above, and (2) if the Benchmark is not Compounded SOFR, the time determined by the Company or its designee in accordance with the Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

“Relevant Governmental Body” means the Federal Reserve Board and/or the FRBNY, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the Federal Reserve Board and/or the FRBNY or any successor thereto. “Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement” means the Benchmark Replacement excluding the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment. None of the Trustee, the principal paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be under any obligation (1) to monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of SOFR (or any other Benchmark), or whether or when there has occurred, or to give notice to any other transaction party of the occurrence of, any Benchmark Transition Event or related Benchmark Replacement Date, (2) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement, or other successor or replacement benchmark index, or whether any conditions to the designation of such a rate or index have been satisfied, (3) to select, determine or designate any Benchmark Replacement Adjustment, or other modifier to any replacement or successor index, or (4) to determine whether or what Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes are necessary or advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing, including, but not limited to, adjustments as to any alternative spread thereon, the business day convention, interest determination dates or any other relevant methodology applicable to such substitute or successor benchmark. In connection with the foregoing, each of the Trustee, the principal paying agent and the Calculation Agent shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any determinations made by the Company or its designee without independent investigation, and none will have any liability for actions taken at the Company’s direction in connection therewith. None of the Trustee, the principal paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be liable for any inability, failure or delay on its part to perform any of its duties set forth in this Note as a result of the unavailability of SOFR or other applicable Benchmark Replacement, including as a result of any failure, inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of any other transaction party in providing any direction, instruction, notice or information required or contemplated by the terms of this Note and reasonably required for the performance of such duties. None of the Trustee, the principal paying agent or the Calculation Agent shall be responsible or liable for the Company’s actions or omissions or for those of its designee, or for any failure or delay in the performance by such designee, nor shall any of the Trustee, the principal paying agent or the Calculation Agent be under any obligation to oversee or monitor the Company’s performance or that of such designee. This Security is redeemable in whole, but not in part, by the Company on October 20, 2026, the date that is one year prior to the maturity date, at 100% of the principal amount of the Security, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. In addition, this Security is redeemable in whole or in part by the Company during the 30-day period prior to, and including, the maturity date at 100% of the principal amount of the Security, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption. The Company will provide 5 to 30 calendar days’ notice of the redemption to the registered Holder of this Security. Other than as described in the preceding three sentences, this Security is not redeemable prior to maturity. This Security will not be subject to repayment at the option of the Holders prior to maturity and will not be subject to any sinking fund. This Security is not convertible into, or exchangeable for, equity securities of the Company. If an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to the Securities shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee hereinafter referred to, by manual or facsimile signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose. The obligations evidenced by this Security rank equally with all other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of any series under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of all series (voting as one class) to be affected by such amendment or modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest (if any) on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 thereof. This Security is a global security, represented by one or more permanent global certificates registered in the name of the nominee of The Depository Trust Company (each a “Global Note” and collectively, the “Global Notes”). Accordingly, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for individual certificates evidencing the Securities represented hereby, this Security may not be transferred except as a whole by The Depositary Trust Company (the “Depositary”) to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any nominee to a successor Depositary or any nominee of such successor. Ownership of beneficial interests in this Security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by the applicable Depositary or its nominee (with respect to interest of persons that have accounts with the Depositary (“Participants”) and the records of Participants (with respect to interests of persons other than Participants)). Beneficial interests in Securities by persons that hold through Participants will be evidenced only by, and transfers of such beneficial interests with such Participants will be effected only through, records maintained by such Participants. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in this Security will not be entitled to have any individual certificates and will not be considered the owners or Holders thereof under the Indenture. Except in the limited circumstances set forth herein, Participants and owners of beneficial interests in the Global Notes will not be entitled to receive Securities in definitive form and will not be considered Holders of Securities. If the Depositary is at any time unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue as Depositary and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and the Depositary requests the issuance of certificated notes, the Company will issue individual certificates evidencing the Securities represented hereby in definitive form in exchange for this Security in registered form to each person that the Depositary identifies as the beneficial owner of the Securities represented by the Global Notes upon surrender by the Depositary of the Global Notes. In addition, the Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine not to have any Securities represented by one or more global securities and, in such event, will issue individual certificates evidencing Securities in definitive form in exchange for this Security. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in a Security will be entitled to physical delivery in certificated form of Securities equal in principal amount to such beneficial interest and to have such Securities registered in its name. Securities so issued in certificated form will be issued in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 thereof and will be issued in registered form only, without coupons. Neither the Company nor the principal paying agent will be liable for any delay by the Depositary, its nominee or any direct or indirect participant in identifying the beneficial owners of the related Securities. The Company and the principal payment agent may conclusively rely on, and will be protected in relying on, instructions from the Depositary or its nominee for all purposes, including with respect to the registration and delivery, and the respective principal amounts, of the Securities to be issued. Except as provided herein, beneficial owners of Global Notes will not be entitled to receive physical delivery of Securities in definitive form and no Global Note will be exchangeable except for another Global Note of like denomination and tenor to be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee. Accordingly, each person owning a beneficial interest in a Global Note must rely on the procedures of the Depositary and, if such person is not a Participant, on the procedures of the Participant through which such person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a Holder under the Securities. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes will be represented through book-entry accounts of financial institutions acting on behalf of beneficial owners as direct and indirect participants in the Depositary. Investors may elect to hold interests in the Global Notes through the Depositary, either directly if they are Participants of such system or indirectly through organizations that are Participants in such system. The laws of some jurisdictions may require that purchasers of securities take physical delivery of those securities in definitive form. Accordingly, the ability to transfer interests in the Securities represented by a Global Note to those persons may be limited. In addition, because the Depositary can act only on behalf of its Participants, who in turn act on behalf of persons who hold interests through Participants, the ability of a person having an interest in Securities represented by a Global Note to pledge or transfer such interest to persons or entities that do not participate in the Depositary’s system, or otherwise to take actions in respect of such interest, may be affected by the lack of a physical definitive security in respect of such interest. None of the Company, the Trustee, the principal paying agent or any Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of Securities by the Depositary, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records of the Depositary relating to the Securities. The Bank of New York Mellon will act as the Company’s principal paying agent with respect to the Securities through its offices presently located at 525 William Penn Place, 38th Floor, Pittsburgh, PA 15259. The Company may at any time rescind the designation of a paying agent, appoint a successor paying agent, or approve a change in the office through which any paying agent acts. Payments of interest and principal may be made by wire-transfer in immediately available funds

for Securities held in book-entry form or, at the Company’s option in the event the Securities are not represented by Global Notes, by check mailed to the address of the person entitled to the payment as it appears in the Security register. Payment of principal will be made upon the surrender of the relevant Securities at the offices of the principal paying agent. Notices to the Holders of registered Securities will be mailed to them at their respective addresses in the register of the Securities and will be deemed to have been given on the fourth weekday (being a day other than Saturday or Sunday) after the date of mailing. The Indenture contains provisions setting forth certain conditions to the institution of proceedings by the Holders of Securities with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy under the Indenture. All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. — end of page — [signatures appear on following page]
