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 sending 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; Supplement; Waiver. |
Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and
any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes)
under the Indenture that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting as a single class). Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things,
cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a
Note.
The Issuer may at its option redeem any of the Notes in whole or in part at any time prior to August 27, 2029 (one month prior to
the maturity date (the 2029 Par Call Date)), each at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) calculated by the Issuer equal to the greater of:
(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the
redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the 2029 Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the
Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and
(ii) 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes to be redeemed,
plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
At any time on or after the 2029 Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Issuers option, at a
redemption price calculated by the Issuer equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or
prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the Indenture.
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 securitiesTreasury constant maturitiesNominal (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 period from the redemption date to the 2029 Par Call Date (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 2029 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.
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 2029 Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the 2029 Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity
date equally distant from the 2029 Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the 2029 Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the 2029 Par Call Date, the Issuer shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity
date preceding the 2029 Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the 2029 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 Issuers 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 depositarys procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.
The Trustee shall not be responsible for calculating the redemption price. 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 is consistent with the applicable procedures of the Trustee and the depository. 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 the
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.
7. Defaults and Remedies.
If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Issuer) under the Indenture occurs with
respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, shall by written notice, require the Issuer to repay immediately the entire principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will
automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not
obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.
8. Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually or electronically signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.
9. Abbreviations and Defined Terms.
Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Note or an
assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to
Minors Act).
10. CUSIP Numbers.
Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP
numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Notes and reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.
11. Governing Law.
The laws of the State of New York shall govern the Indenture and this Note thereof.

2006 (the Base Indenture) by and among the Issuer (formerly known as Ozark Holding Inc.), Oracle Systems Corporation (formerly known as Oracle Corporation) and Citibank, N.A., as amended by a supplemental indenture dated as of
May 9, 2007 (the Supplemental Indenture) and as supplemented by the Officers Certificate dated as of September 27, 2024 (the Officers Certificate and, together with the Base Indenture and

Indenture. This Note is a Security and the Notes are Securities under the Indenture.
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. |

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 sending 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; Supplement; Waiver. |
Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and
any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes)
under the Indenture that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting as a single class). Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things,
cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a
Note.
The Issuer may at its option redeem any of the Notes in whole or in part at any time prior to June 27, 2034 (three months prior
to the maturity date (the 2034 Par Call Date)), each at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) calculated by the Issuer equal to the greater of:
(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the
redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the 2034 Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the
Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and
(ii) 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes to be redeemed,
plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
At any time on or after the 2034 Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Issuers option, at a
redemption price calculated by the Issuer equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or
prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the Indenture.
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 securitiesTreasury constant maturitiesNominal (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 period from the redemption date to the 2034 Par Call Date (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 2034 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.
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 2034 Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the 2034 Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity
date equally distant from the 2034 Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the 2034 Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the 2034 Par Call Date, the Issuer shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity
date preceding the 2034 Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the 2034 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 Issuers 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 depositarys procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.
The Trustee shall not be responsible for calculating the redemption price. 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 is consistent with the applicable procedures of the Trustee and the depository. 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 the
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.

Indenture; Defined Terms. |
This Note is one of the 5.375% Notes due 2054 (the Notes) issued under an indenture dated as of January 13,
2006 (the Base Indenture) by and among the Issuer (formerly known as Ozark Holding Inc.), Oracle Systems Corporation (formerly known as Oracle Corporation) and Citibank, N.A., as amended by a supplemental indenture dated as of
May 9, 2007 (the Supplemental Indenture) and as supplemented by the Officers Certificate dated as of September 27, 2024 (the Officers Certificate and, together with the Base Indenture and
Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture) by and among the Issuer, Citibank, N.A. and the Trustee, and established pursuant to the Officers Certificate, issued pursuant to Section 2.01 and Section 2.03 of the Base
Indenture. This Note is a Security and the Notes are Securities under the Indenture.
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 thereafter. 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 sending 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; Supplement; Waiver. |
Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented and
any existing default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of all series of Outstanding Securities (including the Notes)
under the Indenture that are affected by such amendment, supplement or waiver (voting as a single class). Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things,
cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency or comply with any requirements of the Commission in connection with the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA, or make any other change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a
Note.
The Issuer may at its option redeem any of the Notes in whole or in part at any time prior to March 27, 2054 (six months prior to
the maturity date (the 2054 Par Call Date)), each at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) calculated by the Issuer equal to the greater of:
(i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the
redemption date (assuming the Notes matured on the 2054 Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the
Treasury Rate plus 20 basis points less (b) interest accrued to the date of redemption, and
(ii) 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes to be redeemed,
plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
At any time on or after the 2054 Par Call Date, the Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Issuers option, at a
redemption price calculated by the Issuer equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of redemption.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on interest payment dates falling on or
prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest payment date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the Indenture.
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 securitiesTreasury constant maturitiesNominal (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 period from the redemption date to the 2054 Par Call Date (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 2054 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.
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 2054 Par Call Date, as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the 2054 Par Call Date but there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity
date equally distant from the 2054 Par Call Date, one with a maturity date preceding the 2054 Par Call Date and one with a maturity date following the 2054 Par Call Date, the Issuer shall select the United States Treasury security with a maturity
date preceding the 2054 Par Call Date. If there are two or more United States Treasury securities maturing on the 2054 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 Issuers 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 depositarys procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.
The Trustee shall not be responsible for calculating the redemption price. 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 is consistent with the applicable procedures of the Trustee and the depository. 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 the
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.
|
7. |
Defaults and Remedies. |
If an Event of Default (other than certain bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Issuer) under the Indenture occurs with
respect to the Notes and is continuing, then the Trustee may and, at the direction of the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, shall by written notice, require the Issuer to repay immediately the entire principal
amount of the Outstanding Notes, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and premium, if any. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Issuer occurs and is continuing, then the entire principal amount of the Outstanding Notes will
automatically become due immediately and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not
obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it has received indemnity as it reasonably requires. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest.
This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually or electronically signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Note or an
assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to
Minors Act).
10. CUSIP Numbers.

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

In rendering the opinion expressed herein, we have, without independent inquiry or investigation, assumed that
(i) all documents submitted to us as originals are authentic and complete, (ii) all documents submitted to us as copies conform to authentic, complete originals, (iii) all documents filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement that
have not been executed will conform to the forms thereof, (iv) all signatures on all documents that we reviewed are genuine, (v) all natural persons executing documents had and have the legal capacity to do so, (vi) all statements in
certificates of public officials and officers of the Company that we reviewed were and are accurate and (vii) all representations made by the Company as to matters of fact in the documents that we reviewed were and are accurate.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the additional assumptions and qualifications set forth below, we advise you that, in our opinion, the Notes
have been duly authorized by the Company in accordance with the Indenture, and, when executed and authenticated by the Company in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and delivered to and paid for by the Underwriters in accordance with
the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors rights
generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability, provided that we express no opinion as to (y) the effect of fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer or similar provision of applicable law on the
conclusions expressed above or (z) the validity, legally binding effect or enforceability of any provision that permits holders to collect any portion of stated principal amount upon acceleration of the Notes to the extent determined to
constitute unearned interest.
In connection with the opinion expressed above, we have assumed that the Company is validly existing as a
corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. In addition, we have assumed that the Indenture and the Notes (collectively, the Documents) are each valid, binding and enforceable agreements of each
party thereto (other than as expressly covered above in respect of the Company). We have also assumed that the execution, delivery and performance by each party to each Document to which it is a party (a) are within its corporate powers,
(b) do not contravene, or constitute a default under, the certificate of incorporation or bylaws or other constitutive documents of such party, (c) require no action by or in respect of, or filing with, any governmental body, agency or
official and (d) do not contravene, or constitute a default under, any provision of applicable law or regulation or any judgment, injunction, order or decree or any agreement or other instrument binding upon such party, provided that we make no
such assumption to the extent that we have specifically opined as to such matters with respect to the Company.
We are members of the Bars of the
States of New York and California and the foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, except that we express no opinion as to any law, rule or regulation that is
applicable to the Company, the Documents or such transactions solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any party to any of the Documents or any of its affiliates due to the specific assets or business
of such party or such affiliate.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Company on the date hereof and further consent to the reference to our name under the caption Validity of Securities in the base prospectus and supplement thereto, which are part
of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act.
Very truly yours,
