ANALOG DEVICES, INC.
3.00% Notes due April 15, 2016
Capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless otherwise indicated.
     1. INTEREST. Analog Devices, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation (the “Company”), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at 3.00% per annum from the date hereof until maturity. The Company will pay interest semi-annually on April 15 and October 15 of each year, or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day, and no additional interest will accrue on the amount so payable for that period (each an “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 April 4, 2011; provided that if there is no existing Default in the payment of interest, and if this Note is authenticated between a record date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest will accrue from such next succeeding Interest Payment Date; provided, further, that the first Interest Payment Date will be October 15, 2011. The Company will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law to the extent allowable) on overdue principal at the rate equal to the then applicable interest rate on the Notes to the extent lawful; it will pay interest (including post-petition interest in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law to the extent allowable) on overdue installments of interest 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. The Company will pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are registered Holders of Notes at the close of business on the April 1 or October 1 next preceding the Interest Payment Date, even if such Notes are canceled after such record date and on or before such Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.13 of the Base Indenture with respect to defaulted interest. Principal and interest on the Notes will be payable at the office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of New York or, at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the Holders of the Notes at their respective addresses set forth in the register of Holders of Notes; provided that payment by wire transfer of immediately available funds will be required with respect to principal of and interest on all Global Securities and all other Notes the Holders of which will have provided wire transfer instructions to the Company or the Paying Agent. Such payment will be in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts.
     3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., the Trustee under the Indenture, will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change any Paying Agent or Registrar without notice to any Holder. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act in any such capacity.
     4. INDENTURE. This Note is one of a duly authenticated Series of securities of the Company issued and to be issued in one or more Series under an indenture (the “Base Indenture”), dated as of June 30, 2009 between the Company and the Trustee, as amended by the Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 4, 2011, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the TIA. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and such Act for a statement of such terms. To the extent any provision of this Note conflicts with the express provisions of the Indenture, the provisions of the Indenture will govern and be controlling, and to the extent any provision of the Base Indenture conflicts with the express provisions of the Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of the Supplemental Indenture will govern and be controlling. The Company will be entitled to issue Additional Notes pursuant to Section 2.3 of the Supplemental Indenture.
     5. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION.
     The Notes are redeemable at the option of the Company, at any time or from time to time, either in whole

 


 

or in part, at a redemption price equal to the greater of the following amounts, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date:
     (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; and
     (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments.
     In determining the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments, such payments shall be discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points.
     Calculation of the foregoing shall be made by the Company or on the Company’s behalf by such person as the Company shall designate; provided, however, that such calculation shall not be a duty or obligation of the Trustee.
     Unless the Company 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.
     A partial redemption of the Notes may be effected by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of the Notes equal to an authorized denomination.
     No Notes of $2,000 or less can be redeemed in part. Notes in denominations larger than $2,000 may be redeemed in part but only in whole multiples of $1,000, unless all of the Notes held by a Holder are to be redeemed.
     Notice of any redemption shall be mailed at least 15 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed.
     6. MANDATORY REDEMPTION. The Company is not required to make any mandatory redemption or sinking fund payments with respect to the Notes.
     7. OFFER TO PURCHASE UPON CHANGE OF CONTROL.
     If a Change of Control Triggering Event occurs, unless the Company has exercised its option to redeem the Notes or has defeased the Notes or satisfied and discharged the Notes, the Company shall be required to make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder of the Notes to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of that Holder’s Notes pursuant to the terms set forth in the Indenture. In a Change of Control Offer, the Company shall be required to offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased to the date of repurchase.
     8. DENOMINATIONS, TRANSFER, EXCHANGE. The Notes are in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000. Notes may be transferred or exchanged as provided in the Indenture. The Registrar and the Trustee may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and the Company or the Trustee may require a Holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not exchange or transfer any Note or portion of a Note selected for redemption, except for the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part. Also, the Company need not exchange or register the transfer of any Notes for a period of 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes to be redeemed or during the period between a record date and the corresponding Interest Payment Date.
     9. PERSONS DEEMED OWNERS. The registered Holder of a Note may be treated as its owner for all purposes.
     10. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of

 


 

the Notes then outstanding, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes, and any existing default or compliance with any provision of the Indenture or the Notes, may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes, including, without limitation, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for the Notes. Without the consent of any Holder of a Note, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented (i) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency; (ii) to provide for a supplemental indenture as set forth in Article V of the Base Indenture; (iii) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes; (iv) to make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any Holder; (v) to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the Securities of any Series as permitted by the Indenture; (vi) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment under the Indenture by a successor Trustee and to add to or change any of the provisions of the Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts under the Indenture by more than one Trustee; or (vii) to comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the TIA.
     11. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of, and any accrued and unpaid interest on, the outstanding Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
     12. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of the Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company or an Affiliate of the Company with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee.
     13. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the Company will 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. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of the Notes.
     14. AUTHENTICATION. This Note will not be valid until authenticated by the manual signature of the Trustee or an authenticating agent.
     15. ABBREVIATIONS. Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder 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).
     16. CUSIP NUMBERS. The Company has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes and the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Holders. No representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Notes or as contained in any notice of redemption and reliance may be placed only on the other elements of identification printed on the Notes, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture. Requests may be made to:
