This Note is one of a series of the Notes of the Corporation issued and to be issued under an indenture dated as of August 11, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”) made between the Corporation and Computershare Trust Company of Canada (the “Trustee”), and a fourth supplemental indenture dated as of July 17, 2024 (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture”, and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) made between the Corporation and the Trustee. The Indenture and the Pricing Supplement specify the terms and conditions upon which the Notes are issued or may be issued and held and the rights of the Holders of Notes, the Corporation and the Trustee, all of which are incorporated by reference in this Note and to all of which the Holder of this Note, by acceptance hereof, agrees. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings attributed to them in the Indenture.

Prior to an Interest Payment Date, the Corporation (except in case of payment at Maturity Date or on redemption at which time payment of interest will be made only upon surrender of this Note) will forward or cause to be forwarded to the Trustee the interest less any Taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld. The Trustee shall subsequently mail a cheque for such amount to the registered Holder of this Note at the registered address of such Holder, or in the case of joint Holders to the registered address of the joint Holder first named in the register, payable to the order of such Holder or Holders and negotiable at par at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

The aggregate principal amount of Notes of other series which may be issued under the Indenture is unlimited, but such Notes may be issued only upon the terms and subject to any conditions provided in the Indenture.

The Notes are direct obligations of the Corporation but are not secured by any mortgage, pledge, hypothec or other charge.

Upon compliance with the provisions of the Indenture, Notes of any denomination may be exchanged for an equal aggregate principal amount of Notes in any other authorized denomination or denominations.

So long as the Corporation is not in default under the Indenture, the Corporation may purchase Notes in the open market, by tender or by private contract at any price.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture), unless the Corporation has exercised any right to redeem the Notes, the Corporation will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture except if another Person makes such an offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements for an offer that would be required to be made by the Corporation in connection with a Change of Control Triggering Event, and such Person purchases all Notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer.

The Principal Amount may become or be declared due before the Maturity Date on the conditions, in the manner, with the effect and at the times set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions for the holding of meetings of Holders and making resolutions passed at such meetings and instruments in writing signed by the Holders of a specified percentage of the Notes outstanding binding on all Holders, subject to the provisions of the Indenture.


This Note may be transferred only upon compliance with the conditions prescribed in the Indenture on one of the registers kept at the principal offices of the Trustee in Toronto, Ontario and at such other place or places, if any, and by such other registrar or registrars, if any, as the Corporation may designate, by the registered Holder hereof or the Holder’s legal representative or attorney duly appointed by an instrument in writing in form and execution satisfactory to the Trustee, and upon compliance with such reasonable requirements as the Trustee or other registrar may prescribe, and such transfer shall be duly noted hereon by the Trustee or other registrar.
