2.(a) Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to

issue and sell to each of the Underwriters, and each of the Underwriters agrees, severally and not

3.Upon the authorization by you of the release of the Securities, the several

Underwriters propose to offer the Securities for sale upon the terms and conditions set forth in

the Prospectus.

4.(a) The Company will deliver the Securities to one or more of the Representatives

for the account of each Underwriter, against payment by or on behalf of such Underwriter of the

delivery of the Securities is herein called the “Time of Delivery”.

(b)The documents to be delivered at the Time of Delivery by or on behalf of the

parties hereto pursuant to Section 8 hereof, including the cross-receipt for the Securities and any

additional documents reasonably requested by the Underwriters pursuant to Section 8(j) hereof,

generally authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

5.The Company agrees with each of the Underwriters:

amendment or any supplement to the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus or the

Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Act; to timely file all reports and any definitive

proxy or information statements required to be filed by the Company with the Commission

to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) is required in connection with the offering or sale of the

Securities; to advise you, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when any

amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed or becomes effective or any supplement

to the Prospectus or any amended Prospectus has been filed with the Commission (other than an

amendment or supplement as a result of filings required to be made by the Company under the

Exchange Act), of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the

effectiveness of the Registration Statement or any part thereof or any stop order or of any order

preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus or other prospectus in respect of

the Securities, of any notice of objection of the Commission to the use of the Registration

Statement or any post-effective amendment thereto pursuant to Rule 401(g)(2) under the Act, of

the suspension of the qualification of the Securities for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the

initiation or threatening of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the

Commission for the amending or supplementing of the Registration Statement or the Prospectus

or for additional information; and, in the event of the issuance of any stop order or of any order

preventing or suspending the use of any Preliminary Prospectus or other prospectus with respect

to the Securities or suspending any such qualification, to promptly use its best efforts to obtain

the withdrawal of such order; and in the event of any such issuance of a notice of objection,

promptly to take such steps including, without limitation, amending the Registration Statement

and sales of the Securities by the Underwriters (references herein to the Registration Statement

shall include any such amendment or new registration statement);

(b)If required by Rule 430B(h) under the Act, to prepare a form of prospectus in a

form approved by you and to file such form of prospectus pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Act

not later than may be required by Rule 424(b) under the Act; and to make no further amendment

or supplement to such form of prospectus which shall be disapproved by you promptly after

reasonable notice thereof;

(c)Promptly from time to time to take such action as the Representatives may

reasonably request to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the securities laws of such

jurisdictions as the Representatives may request and to comply with such laws so as to permit the

continuance of sales and dealings therein in such jurisdictions for as long as may be necessary to

complete the distribution of the Securities, provided that in connection therewith the Company

shall not be required (i) to qualify as a foreign corporation where it is not now qualified, (ii) to

file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction where it is not now so subject or

(iii) to take any action that would subject itself to taxation in any jurisdiction if it is not otherwise

so subject;

(d)Prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the New York business day next

succeeding the date of this Agreement and from time to time, to furnish the Underwriters with

reasonably request, and, if the delivery of a prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in

Rule 173(a) under the Act) is required at any time prior to the expiration of nine months after the

time of issue of the Prospectus in connection with the offering or sale of the Securities and if at

such time any event shall have occurred as a result of which the Prospectus as then amended or

supplemented would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material

fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under

which they were made when such Prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule

173(a) under the Act) is delivered, not misleading, or, if for any other reason it shall be necessary

during such same period to amend or supplement the Prospectus or to file under the Exchange

Act any document incorporated by reference in the Prospectus in order to comply with the Act or

the Exchange Act, to notify you and upon your request to file such document and to prepare and

furnish without charge to each Underwriter and to any dealer in securities as many written and

electronic copies as you may from time to time reasonably request of an amended Prospectus or

a supplement to the Prospectus that will correct such statement or omission or effect such

compliance; and in case any Underwriter is required to deliver a prospectus (or in lieu thereof,

the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Act) in connection with sales of any of the

Securities at any time nine months or more after the time of issue of the Prospectus, upon your

request but at the expense of such Underwriter, to prepare and deliver to such Underwriter as

many written and electronic copies as you may request of an amended or supplemented

Prospectus complying with Section 10(a)(3) of the Act;

(e)To make generally available to its security holders and to the Underwriters as

soon as practicable, but in any event not later than sixteen months after the effective date of the

Registration Statement (as such date is defined in Rule 158(c) under the Act), an earnings

statement of the Company and its subsidiaries (which need not be audited) complying with

Section 11(a) of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (including,

at the option of the Company, Rule 158);

(f)During the period beginning from the date hereof and continuing to and including

the later of the Time of Delivery and such time as you may notify the Company, not to, issue,

offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of any

senior debt securities of the Company that are substantially similar to the Securities without the

Representatives’ prior written consent;

(g)To pay the required Commission filing fees relating to the Securities within the

time required by Rule 456(b)(1) under the Act without regard to the proviso therein and

otherwise in accordance with Rules 456(b) and 457(r) under the Act; and

(h)To use the net proceeds received by it from the sale of the Securities pursuant to

this Agreement in the manner specified in the Pricing Prospectus under the caption “Use of

Proceeds”.

6.(a)The Company represents and agrees that, other than the final term sheet

prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof, without the prior consent of the

Representatives, it has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would

constitute a “free writing prospectus” as defined in Rule 405 under the Act; each Underwriter

represents and agrees that, without the prior consent of the Company and the Representatives, it

has not made and will not make any offer relating to the Securities that would constitute a free

writing prospectus required to be filed with the Commission; any such free writing prospectus

the use of which has been consented to by the Company and the Representatives (including the

final term sheet prepared and filed pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof) is listed on Schedule II(a)

hereto;

(b)The Company has complied and will comply with the requirements of Rule 433

under the Act applicable to any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, including timely filing with the

Commission or retention where required and legending; and

(c)The Company agrees that if at any time following the issuance of an Issuer Free

Writing Prospectus any event occurred or occurs as a result of which such Issuer Free Writing

Prospectus (i) would conflict with the information in the Registration Statement, the Pricing

Prospectus or the Prospectus or (ii) would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit

to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the

circumstances then prevailing, not misleading, the Company will give prompt notice thereof to

the Representatives and, if requested by the Representatives, will prepare and furnish without

charge to each Underwriter an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or other document that will correct

such conflict, statement or omission; provided, however, that this representation and warranty

shall not apply to any statements or omissions in an Issuer Free Writing Prospectus made in

reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by an

Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein.

7.The Company covenants and agrees with the several Underwriters that the

Company will pay all expenses incident to the performance of each of its obligations under this

Agreement and will pay or cause to be paid the following: (i) the fees, disbursements and

expenses of the Company’s counsel and accountants in connection with the registration of the

Securities under the Act and all other expenses in connection with the preparation, printing,

supplements thereto and the mailing and delivering of copies thereof to the Underwriters and

Section. It is understood, however, that, except as provided in this Section, and Sections 9 and

11 hereof, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses, including the fees of

their counsel, transfer taxes on resale of any of the Securities by them, the cost of preparing and

distributing any term sheet prepared by any Underwriter, and any advertising expenses connected

with any offers they may make

8.The obligations of the Underwriters hereunder, as to the Securities to be delivered

at the Time of Delivery, shall be subject to the condition that all representations and warranties

and other statements of the Company herein are, at and as of the Time of Delivery, true and

correct, the condition that the Company shall have performed all of its obligations hereunder

theretofore to be performed and the following additional conditions:

no stop order suspending or preventing the use of the Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing

additional information on the part of the Commission shall have been complied with to your

reasonable satisfaction;

(b)Cleary Gottlieb Steen & Hamilton LLP, counsel for the Underwriters, shall have

furnished to the Underwriters such opinion or opinions, dated as of the Closing Date, with

counsel such documents as they reasonably request for the purpose of enabling them to pass

upon such matters;

(c)The Company shall have furnished to the Underwriters an opinion, dated as of the

Agreement, on the effective date of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement

filed subsequent to the date of this Agreement but prior to the Closing Date (other than the

in form and substance satisfactory to you, containing statements and information of the type

ordinarily included in accountants’ comfort letters with respect to the financial statements and

order or decree, otherwise than as set forth or contemplated in the Pricing Prospectus, and (ii)

since June 30, 2024, there shall not have been any change in the capital stock or long term debt

of the Company or any of its subsidiaries, or any change, or any development involving a

prospective change, in or affecting the condition (financial or otherwise), results of operations,

business, properties or prospects of the Company and its subsidiaries, otherwise than as set forth

or contemplated in the Pricing Prospectus, the effect of which, in any such case described in

Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus; and

(j)The Company shall have furnished or caused to be furnished to you at the Time of

performed at or prior to such time; and as to the matters set forth in subsections (a) and (f) of this

Section and as to such other matters as you may reasonably request.

9.(a)The Company will indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, its

directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning

of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses, claims, damages

or liabilities, joint or several, to which such Underwriter or any such director, officer or

controlling person may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses,

claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an

untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration

Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the

Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any

“issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) or any Pricing

Disclosure Package under the Act, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged

omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the

statements therein not misleading, and will reimburse each Underwriter and its directors, officers

and controlling persons for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Underwriter

or any director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any

such action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall

not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises

out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged

omission made in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus,

the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer

Free Writing Prospectus, or any Pricing Disclosure Package in reliance upon and in conformity

with written information furnished to the Company by any Underwriter through the

Representatives expressly for use therein. The Company and the Underwriters acknowledge and

agree that the only information furnished or to be furnished by any Underwriter to the Company

for inclusion in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Prospectus consists of the names of the

Underwriters, the information set forth in the first and second sentences of the third paragraph

and the seventh and eighth paragraphs under the caption “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in

the Preliminary Prospectus and the corresponding paragraphs in the Prospectus.

(b)Each Underwriter severally and not jointly will indemnify and hold harmless the

Company, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within

the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any losses,

claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company or any such director, officer or controlling

person may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages

or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or

alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Basic

Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any

amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Pricing

Disclosure Package or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state

therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein

not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or

alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration

Statement, the Basic Prospectus, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or the

Prospectus or any such amendment or supplement thereto, or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,

or any Pricing Disclosure Package in reliance upon and in conformity with written information

furnished to the Company by such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use

therein; and will reimburse the Company, its directors, officers and controlling persons upon

demand for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Company or any such

director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any action,

proceeding, claim as such expenses are incurred.

(c)Promptly after receipt by any person in respect of which an indemnity may be

sought under subsection (a) or (b) above (the “indemnified party”) of notice of the

commencement of any action, proceeding or investigation, such indemnified party shall, if a

claim in respect thereof is to be made against the person against whom such indemnity may be

sought (the “indemnifying party”) under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in

writing of the commencement thereof and provide sufficient information in such notification as

to the nature and basis of such indemnified party’s involvement in such action, proceeding or

investigation; but the omission to so notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any

liability that it may have to any indemnified party pursuant to such subsection unless and to the

extent it did not otherwise learn of such action. In case any such action, proceeding or

investigation shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying

party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate

therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly

notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who

shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying

party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election to

so assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified

party under such subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel or any other expenses, in

each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense

thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the

written consent of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to

the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of

which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified

party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise

or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability

arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of

fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d)If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is unavailable to or

insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of

any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then

each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified

party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) in

such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the

one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the

allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or

if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under subsection (c) above, then each

indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in

such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative

fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the

statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions

in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits

received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to

be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses

but excluding accrued interest) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts

and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover

page of the Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other

things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or

alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the

one hand or the Underwriters on the other and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to

information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Company and

the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this

subsection (d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as

one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of

the equitable considerations referred to above in this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable

by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in

respect thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or

other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or

defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no

Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the

total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to

the public exceeds the amount of any damages which such Underwriter has otherwise been

required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged

omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f)

of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such

fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ obligations in this subsection (d) to contribute

are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.

(e)The obligations of the Company under this Section 9 shall be in addition to any

liability which the Company may otherwise have; and the obligations of the Underwriters under

this Section 9 shall be in addition to any liability which the respective Underwriters may

otherwise have.

10.(a) If any Underwriter shall default in its obligation to purchase the Securities

which it has agreed to purchase hereunder at the Time of Delivery, you may in your discretion

arrange for you or another party or other parties to purchase such Securities on the terms

contained herein. If within thirty-six hours after such default by any Underwriter you do not

arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period

of thirty-six hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to the

Representatives to purchase such Securities on such terms. In the event that, within the

respective prescribed periods, you notify the Company that you have so arranged for the

purchase of such Securities, or the Company notifies you that it has so arranged for the purchase

of such Securities, you or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Time of Delivery for

a period of not more than seven days, in order to effect whatever changes may thereby be made

necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any other documents or

arrangements, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendments or supplements to the

Registration Statement or the Prospectus that in your opinion may thereby be made necessary.

The term “Underwriter” as used in this Agreement shall include any person substituted under this

Section with like effect as if such person had originally been a party to this Agreement with

respect to such Securities.

(b)If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a

defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subsection 10(a)

above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities which remains unpurchased does not

exceed one ninth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, then the Company shall

have the right to require each non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase the principal amount of

Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder and, in addition, to require each

non-defaulting Underwriter to purchase its pro rata share (based on the principal amount of

Securities which such Underwriter agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such

defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters for which such arrangements have not been made; but

nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

(c)If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a

defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by you and the Company as provided in subsection 10(a)

above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities which remains unpurchased exceeds

one ninth of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities to be purchased at the Time of

Delivery, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in subsection 10(b) above to

require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or

Underwriters, then this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any

non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the

Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 7 hereof and the indemnity and

contribution agreements in Section 9 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting

Underwriter from liability for its default.

11.The respective indemnities, agreements, representations, warranties and other

statements of the Company and the several Underwriters, as set forth in this Agreement or made

by or on behalf of them, respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain in full force and

effect, regardless of any investigation (or any statement as to the results thereof) made by or on

behalf of any Underwriter, or any of its directors, officers or any person controlling any

Underwriter, the Company, or any of its directors, officers or any controlling person of the

Company, and shall survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of

Section 7 and Section 9 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

12.If for any reason any Securities are not delivered by or on behalf of the Company

as provided herein other than because of a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10,

the Company will reimburse the Underwriters through you for all reasonable out-of-pocket

expenses approved in writing by you, including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel,

reasonably incurred by the Underwriters in making preparations for the purchase, sale and

delivery of the Securities but the Company shall then be under no further liability to any

Underwriter except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof. If this Agreement shall be terminated

pursuant to Section 10 hereof, the Company shall not then be under any liability to any

Underwriter with respect to the Securities, except as provided in Sections 7 and 9 hereof.

13.Time shall be of the essence of this Agreement. As used herein, the term

“business day” shall mean any day when the Commission’s office in Washington, D.C. is open

for business.

14.The Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the

Securities pursuant to this Agreement is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the

Company, on the one hand, and the several Underwriters, on the other, (ii) in connection

therewith and with the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is acting solely as a

principal and not the agent or fiduciary of the Company, (iii) no Underwriter has assumed an

advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Company with respect to the offering

contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has

advised or is currently advising the Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the

Company except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement and (iv) the Company has

consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate. The Company

agrees that it will not claim that the Underwriters, or any of them, has rendered advisory services

of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Company, in connection with

such transaction or the process leading thereto.

15.This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether

written or oral) between the Company and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the

subject matter hereof.

16.This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto

and their respective successors, heirs, executors, and administrators, and the directors, officers

and controlling persons referred to in Section 9 hereof, and no other person shall have any right

or obligation hereunder.

17.This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the

laws of the State of New York.

18.THE COMPANY AND EACH OF THE UNDERWRITERS HEREBY

IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE

LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, CLAIM, SUIT OR

LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR

THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.

19.This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which

shall be deemed an original, which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

20.Counterparts may be delivered via facsimile, electronic mail (including any

electronic signature covered by the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, Uniform Electronic

Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures and Records Act or other applicable law, e.g.,

www.docusign.com) or other transmission method and any counterpart so delivered shall be

deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.

21.Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.

(a)In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject

to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such

Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this

Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under

the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and

obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

(b)In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act

Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special

Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against

such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default

*A credit rating of a security is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be subject to review, revision,

suspension, reduction or withdrawal at any time by the assigning rating agency.

**It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made in book-entry form only through the facilities of The Depository

Trust Company against payment in New York, New York on or about the third business day following the date of this

pricing term sheet. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades of securities in the secondary

market generally are required to settle in one business day, referred to as T+1, unless the parties to a trade agree

otherwise. Accordingly, by virtue of the fact that the initial delivery of the Notes will not be made on a T+1 basis,

investors who wish to trade the Notes more than one business day before the Settlement Date will be required to specify

an alternative settlement cycle at the time of any such trade to prevent a failed settlement.

The issuer has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus, as supplemented by a prospectus supplement)

Before you invest, you should read the prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus in that registration

statement and other documents the issuer has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the issuer and

this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.

Alternatively, the issuer, any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send you the

prospectus if you request it by calling Barclays Capital Inc. at 1-888-603-5847, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. at

EXHIBIT A

Matters to be Addressed in the Opinion of Andrew S. Nix, Executive Vice President, Assistant

Corporate Secretary, Chief Governance Officer, and Deputy General Counsel for the Company:

1.The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good

standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, with the corporate power and authority

to own or lease its properties and conduct its business as described in the Pricing

Prospectus and the Prospectus.

2.The Company is duly registered as a bank holding company and has elected to be treated

as a financial holding company under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as

amended.

3.The Company has been duly qualified as a foreign corporation for the transaction of

business and is in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which it

owns or leases properties or conducts any business so as to require such qualification or is

subject to no material liability or disability by reason of the failure to be so qualified in

any such jurisdiction (except in any case in which the failure to so file would not

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect).

4.Regions Bank has been duly organized and is validly existing as a bank and is validly

existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Alabama; and all of the issued

shares of capital stock of Regions Bank have been duly and validly authorized and issued,

are fully paid and non-assessable, and (except for directors’ qualifying shares and as

otherwise set forth in the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus), are owned directly or

indirectly by the Company free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities or claims.

5.To the best of such counsel’s knowledge and other than as set forth in the Pricing

Prospectus and the Prospectus, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to

which the Company or Regions Bank is a party or of which any property of the Company

or Regions Bank is the subject which is reasonably likely to be adversely determined

against the Company or any of its subsidiaries and, if determined adversely to the

Company or Regions Bank, would individually or in the aggregate have a Material

Adverse Effect on the current or future consolidated financial position, stockholders’

equity or results of operations of the Company and Regions Bank, taken as a whole; and,

to the best of such counsel’s knowledge, no such proceedings are threatened by

governmental authorities.

6.The documents incorporated by reference in the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus or

any further amendment or supplement thereto made by the Company prior to the date of

such opinion (other than the financial statements and related schedules therein, as to

which such counsel may express no opinion), when they became effective or were filed

with the Commission, as the case may be, complied as to form in all material respects

with the requirements of the Act or the Exchange Act, as applicable, and the rules and

regulations of the Commission thereunder; and such counsel has no reason to believe that

any of such documents, when such documents became effective or were so filed, as the

case may be, contained, in the case of a registration statement which became effective

under the Act, an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact

required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,

or, in the case of other documents which were filed under the Act or the Exchange Act

with the Commission, an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material

fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances

under which they were made when such documents were so filed, not misleading.

7.To the best of such counsel’s knowledge, there is no amendment to the Registration

Statement required to be filed or of any contracts or other documents of a character

required to be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or required to be

incorporated by reference into the Pricing Prospectus and the Prospectus or required to be

described in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus or the Prospectus which

are not filed or incorporated by reference or described as required; to the best of such

counsel’s knowledge, the statements in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus

and the Prospectus relating to legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings are

accurate and fair summaries thereof and present the information required to be shown.

8.The issue and sale of the Securities, the execution, delivery, filing or performance (as

applicable) by the Company of this Agreement and the Indenture, and the consummation

of the transactions contemplated herein and in the Indenture will not conflict with or

result in a breach or violation pursuant to (i) the certificate of incorporation or other

charter document or by-laws of the Company or Regions Bank, (ii) the terms of any

indenture, contract, lease, mortgage, deed of trust, note agreement, loan agreement or

other agreement, obligation, condition, covenant or instrument to which the Company or

Regions Bank is a party or by which the Company or Regions Bank is bound or to which

any of the property or assets of the Company or Regions Bank is subject, or (iii) any

statute, law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree applicable to the Company or

Regions Bank of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency, governmental body,

arbitrator or other authority having jurisdiction over the Company or Regions Bank or

any of its or their properties which violation or default would, in the case of clauses (ii)

and (iii) above, either individually or in the aggregate with all other violations and

defaults referred to in this paragraph, reasonably be expected to result in a Material

Adverse Effect.

9.No consent, approval, authorization, filing with or order of any court or governmental

agency or body is required for the execution, delivery or performance by the Company of

this Agreement or the Indenture, the issuance and sale by the Company of the Securities

and compliance with the terms and provisions hereof and under the Indenture, the

qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or the consummation by the

Company of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Indenture, except

such as have been obtained or such as may be required under state securities or the blue

sky laws of any jurisdiction in connection with the purchase and distribution of the

Securities by the Underwriters.

EXHIBIT B-1

Matters to be Addressed in the Opinion of Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, Counsel for the Company:

In connection with the several purchases today by you and the other Underwriters named

in Schedule I to the Underwriting Agreement, dated September 3, 2024 (the “Underwriting

Agreement”), between Regions Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),

and you, as Representatives of the several Underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), of

$1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.502% Fixed Rate / Floating Rate Senior Notes

due 2035 of the Company (the “Securities”), issued pursuant to the indenture dated as of August

8, 2005 (the “Original Indenture”) as supplemented by the Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture

dated September 6, 2024 (the “Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the

Original Indenture, the “Indenture”) between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company

Americas, as trustee (the “Trustee”), we, as counsel for the Company, have examined such

corporate records, certificates and other documents, and such questions of law, as we have

considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion. Upon the basis of such

examination, it is our opinion that

(1)The Company has been duly incorporated and is an existing corporation in

good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

(2)The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the

Company and duly qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939; the Securities have

been duly authorized, executed, authenticated, issued and delivered by the Company; and

the Indenture and the Securities constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the

Company enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency,

fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability

relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

(3) All regulatory consents, authorizations, approvals and filings required to

be obtained or made by the Company under the Covered Laws for the execution and

delivery by the Company of, and the performance by the Company of its obligations

under, the Underwriting Agreement have been obtained or made.

(4)The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the

Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof, will not be, an “investment

company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

(5)The Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and

delivered by the Company.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the Federal laws of the United States, the laws of the

State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and we are

expressing no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction. We are expressing no

opinion in paragraph (3) above, insofar as performance by the Company of its obligations under

the Underwriting Agreement is concerned, as to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer,

reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting

creditors’ rights. Also, for purposes of the opinion in paragraph (3) above, “Covered Laws”

means the Federal laws of the United States, the laws of the State of New York and the General

Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (including the published rules or regulations

thereunder) that in our experience normally are applicable to general business corporations and

transactions such as those contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement; provided, however, that

such term does not include Federal or state securities laws, antifraud laws and fraudulent transfer

laws, tax laws, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, antitrust laws or any law

that is applicable to the Company, the Underwriting Agreement or the transactions contemplated

thereby solely as part of a regulatory regime applicable to the Company or its affiliates due to its

or their status, business or assets.

We have also relied as to certain matters upon information obtained from public officials,

officers of the Company and other sources believed by us to be responsible, and we have

assumed that the Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee, that

the Securities conform to the specimen thereof examined by us, that the Trustee’s certificates of

authentication of the Securities have been manually signed by one of the Trustee’s authorized

officers, and that the signatures on all documents examined by us are genuine, assumptions

which we have not independently verified.

EXHIBIT B-2

Matters to be Addressed in the Disclosure Letter of Sullivan & Cromwell LLP, Counsel for the

Company:

This is with reference to the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities

Act”) and offering of $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.502% Fixed Rate /

Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2035 (the “Securities”) of Regions Financial Corporation (the

“Company”).

The Registration Statement relating to the Securities (File No. 333-262964) was filed on

Form S-3 in accordance with the procedures of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the

“Commission”) permitting a delayed or continuous offering of securities pursuant thereto and, if

appropriate, a post-effective amendment, document incorporated by reference therein or

prospectus supplement that provides information relating to the terms of the securities and the

manner of their distribution. The Securities have been offered by the Prospectus, dated February

24, 2022 (the “Basic Prospectus”), as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, dated

September 3, 2024 (the “Prospectus Supplement”), which updates or supplements certain

information contained in the Basic Prospectus. The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the

Prospectus Supplement, does not necessarily contain a current description of the Company’s

business and affairs since, pursuant to Form S-3, it incorporates by reference certain documents

filed with the Commission that contain information as of various dates.

As counsel to the Company, we reviewed the Registration Statement, the Basic

Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement and the documents listed in Schedule A (those listed

documents, taken together with the Basic Prospectus, being referred to herein as the “Pricing

Disclosure Package”), and participated in discussions with your representatives and those of the

Company and its accountants. Between the date of the Prospectus Supplement and the time of

delivery of this letter, we participated in further discussions with your representatives and those

of the Company and its accountants, concerning certain matters relating to the Company and

reviewed certificates of certain officers of the Company, letters addressed to you from the

Company’s accountants and an opinion addressed to you from the Company’s Executive Vice

President, Assistant Corporate Secretary, Chief Governance Officer and Deputy General

Counsel. On the basis of the information that we gained in the course of the performance of the

services referred to above, considered in the light of our understanding of the applicable law

(including the requirements of Form S‑3 and the character of prospectus contemplated thereby)

and the experience we have gained through our practice under the Securities Act, we confirm to

you that, in our opinion, the Registration Statement, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement,

and the Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, as of the date of the

Prospectus Supplement, appeared on their face to be appropriately responsive, in all material

respects relevant to the offering of the Securities, to the requirements of the Securities Act and

the applicable rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder. Also, we confirm to you that

the statements contained in the Prospectus Supplement under the captions “Description of

Notes”, insofar as they relate to provisions of the Securities and the Indenture under which the

Securities are being issued, “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)”, insofar as they relate to the

provisions of the Underwriting Agreement between the Company and the Underwriters therein

described, and under the captions “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences”

and “Certain ERISA Considerations”, insofar as they purport to constitute a summary of matters

of U.S. federal income tax law or the U.S. Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as

amended, and regulations or legal conclusions with respect thereto, constitute a fair and accurate

summary of such provisions in all material respects.

Further, nothing that came to our attention in the course of such review has caused us to

believe that, insofar as relevant to the offering of the Securities,

(a) the Registration Statement, as of the date of the Prospectus Supplement, contained any

untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be

stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or

(b) the Pricing Disclosure Package, as of 4:00 p.m. on September 3, 2024 (which you

have informed us is prior to the time of the first sale of the Securities by any Underwriter)

contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact

necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under

which they were made, not misleading, or

the Prospectus Supplement, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted

to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of

the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading

We also advise you that nothing that came to our attention in the course of the procedures

described in the second sentence of the preceding paragraph has caused us to believe that the

Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, as of the time of delivery of

this letter, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact

necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which

they were made, not misleading.

The limitations inherent in the independent verification of factual matters and the

character of determinations involved in the registration process are such, however, that we do not

assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained

in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Pricing

Disclosure Package, except to the extent specifically noted in the fourth sentence of the second

preceding paragraph. Also, we do not express any opinion or belief as to the financial statements

or other financial data derived from accounting records contained in the Registration Statement,

the Basic Prospectus, the Prospectus Supplement or the Pricing Disclosure Package, or as to

management’s report of its assessment of the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control

over financial reporting or the auditors’ report as to the Company’s internal control over

financial reporting, each as included in the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the

Prospectus Supplement or the Pricing Disclosure Package, or as to the statement of the eligibility

of the Trustee under the Indenture under which the Securities are being issued.

This letter is furnished by us, as counsel to the Company, to you, as

Representatives of the several Underwriters, solely for the benefit of the Underwriters in their

capacity as such, and may not be relied upon by any other person. This letter may not be quoted,

referred to or furnished to any purchaser or prospective purchaser of the Securities and may not

be used in furtherance of any offer or sale of the Securities.

For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Notes by the Holders thereof,

the Company and the Trustee covenant and agree, for the equal and proportionate benefit of all

Holders of the Notes, as follows:

ARTICLE ONE

CREATION OF THE NOTES

Section 1.1Designation of Series. Pursuant to the terms hereof and Sections

201 and 301 of the Base Indenture, the Company hereby creates a series of its senior debt

securities designated as the “5.502% Fixed Rate / Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2035” (the

“Notes”), which Notes shall be deemed “Securities” for all purposes under the Indenture.

Section 1.2 Form and Denomination of Notes.

(a)The definitive form of the Notes shall be substantially in the form set forth

in Exhibit A attached hereto, which is incorporated herein and made part hereof. The Notes shall

bear interest and have such other terms as are stated in the form of definitive Notes or in the

Indenture. The Stated Maturity of the Notes shall be September 6, 2035. The Notes shall be

issued in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Base Indenture, an

electronic signature shall be sufficient for all purposes under the Indenture where a manual or

facsimile signature would otherwise be required, and no corporate seal shall be required to be

reproduced on any security.

Section 1.3 Initial Limit on Amount of Series. The Notes shall initially be

limited to U.S. $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, and may, upon the execution and

delivery of this Supplemental Indenture or from time to time thereafter, be executed by the

Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication, and the Trustee shall thereupon

authenticate and deliver said Notes to or upon the delivery of a Company Order. Following the

initial issuance of the Notes, the aggregate principal amount of Notes may be increased as

provided in Section 1.10.

Section 1.4 Rank. The Notes are unsecured and shall rank equally among

themselves and with all of the Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

Section 1.5 Redemption.

(a)The Company may not redeem the Notes at any time prior to

March 6, 2025. The Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any

time or from time to time on or after March 6, 2025 (or, if additional Notes are issued, beginning

181 days after the issue date of such additional Notes) and prior to September 6, 2034, at a

Redemption Price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal

places) equal to the greater of:

(i) (1) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments

of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Notes

to be redeemed matured on September 6, 2034) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-

day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points,

less (2) interest accrued to the Redemption Date; and

(ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed;

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

For the avoidance of doubt, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (in any capacity in which

it may act hereunder) shall not be responsible for determining or calculating the Redemption

Price.

(b)The Notes will be redeemable, in whole, but not in part, at the Company’s

option on September 6, 2034 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal

amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding, the

Redemption Date.

(c)On and after June 6, 2035, the Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in

part, at any time and from time to time, at the Company’s option at a redemption price equal to

100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid

interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

(d)Section 1102 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended to require that the

written notice to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 1102 of the Base Indenture be

delivered at least 5 days prior to the giving of the notice of redemption in Section 1104 (unless a

shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), rather than at least 45 days prior to the giving

of the notice of redemption in Section 1104.

(e)Section 1104 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended to require that the

notice to be delivered to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed shall be given at least 10 days

prior to the Redemption Date in the manner provided in Section 106 of the Base Indenture (or, if

the Notes are held in book-entry form through DTC, in any such manner as may be then

permitted by DTC). Any notice given to a Holder with respect to the Notes in the matter set

forth in this Section 1.5(c) shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder,

whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice.

Section 1.6 No Repayment or Sinking Fund. The Notes will not be subject to

redemption or repayment at the option of any Holder at any time prior to the Stated Maturity. No

sinking fund will be provided with respect to the Notes.

Section 1.7 Notes Not Convertible or Exchangeable. The Notes will not be

convertible or exchangeable for other securities or property.

Section 1.8 Issuance of Notes; Selection of Depository. The Notes shall be

issued as Registered Securities in permanent global form, without coupons. The initial

Depository for the Notes shall be DTC.

Section 1.9 No Additional Amounts; No Make-Whole Amounts. Except in

connection with the certain optional redemption circumstances set forth in Section 1.5, no

Additional Amounts or Make-Whole Amounts shall be payable with respect to the Notes.

Section 1.10 Further Issuances. The Company may, without consent of the

Holders of the Notes but in compliance with the terms of the Indenture, increase the principal

amount of the Notes by issuing additional Notes on the same terms and conditions as the Notes,

except for any differences in the issue price and interest accrued prior to the date of issuance of

the additional Notes, and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes; provided that if any

additional notes are not fungible with the notes offered hereby for U.S. federal income tax

purposes, such additional notes will be issued under a separate CUSIP number. The Notes and

any additional Notes issued by the Company will rank equally and ratably and shall be treated as

a single series of Securities for all purposes under the Indenture. No additional Notes shall be

issued at any time that there is an Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to the Notes

that has occurred and is continuing.

Section 1.11 Remedies.

(a)Notwithstanding Section 501(4) and 502 of the Base Indenture, an Event

of Default with respect to the Notes under Section 501(4) related to a breach of the covenant

contained in clause (x) of the second paragraph of Section 1009 of the Base Indenture shall not

permit acceleration of the Notes under Section 502.

(b)With respect to the Notes, Section 501(6) of the Base Indenture shall be

replaced in its entirety with the following:

“(6) the Company pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:

(A) commences a voluntary case; or

(B) consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case; or

of its property; or

(D) takes corporate action in furtherance of any such action; or”

(c)Pursuant to Section 501(8) of the Base Indenture, an Event of Default with

respect to the Notes shall also mean either of the following events: (i) the appointment by a

competent government agency having primary regulatory authority over the Principal Subsidiary

Bank under any applicable federal or state banking law, Bankruptcy Law or similar law now or

hereafter in effect of a receiver of the Principal Subsidiary Bank, or (ii) the entry of a decree or

order in any case or proceeding under any applicable federal or state banking law, Bankruptcy

Law or other similar law now or hereafter in effect appointing any receiver of the Principal

Subsidiary Bank.

Section 1.12 Modifications Without Consent of Holders. Solely for the benefit

of the Notes, Section 901 of the Base Indenture is hereby amended to add the following

subsection (13):

(13) to the extent not otherwise inconsistent with the Indenture, to conform the

terms of the Notes or the Indenture with the description set forth in the prospectus supplement

relating to the Notes, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate.

Trust Company Americas, in its capacity as Trustee, shall be afforded all of the rights, powers,

immunities and indemnities of the Trustee as set forth in Article VI of the Base Indenture as if

avoidance of doubt, (i) Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (in any capacity in which it

Floating Rate Period (as defined in Exhibit A) or in connection with a Floating Interest Payment

Date (as defined in Exhibit A) and (ii) Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (in any

capacity in which it may act hereunder) shall be entitled to rely conclusively upon, any

determination or calculation made, and any instruction, notice, officer certificate, or other

instrument or information provided, by the Company, the Company’s designee (as referenced in

investigation or inquiry of any kind by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (in any capacity

in which it may act hereunder).

defined in Exhibit A).

ARTICLE 3

DEFEASANCE

Section 3.1Defeasance Applicable to Notes. Pursuant to Section 301(19) and

Section 1403, in each case, upon the terms and conditions contained in Article Fourteen of the

Base Indenture. For purposes of such defeasance or covenant defeasance, the term “Government

Obligations” shall not include obligations referred to in the definition of such term in the Base

Indenture that are not obligations of the United States or a Person controlled or supervised by

and acting as an agency or an instrumentality thereof.

ARTICLE FOUR

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 4.1Application of Supplemental Indenture. Each and every term and

condition contained in this Supplemental Indenture that modifies, amends or supplements the

terms and conditions of the Base Indenture shall apply only to the Notes created hereby and not

to any future series of Securities established under the Base Indenture.

Section 4.2 Benefits of this Supplemental Indenture. Nothing contained in this

Supplemental Indenture or in the Notes, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than

the parties to the Indenture, any Security Registrar, any Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent

and their successors under the Indenture, and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable

right, remedy or claim under the Base Indenture or this Supplemental Indenture.

Section 4.3 Modification of the Base Indenture. Except as expressly provided

by this Supplemental Indenture, the provisions of the Base Indenture shall govern the terms and

conditions of the Notes.

Section 4.4 Defined Terms.

(i) “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a

legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or

required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

(ii) “Treasury Rate” means with respect to any Redemption Date, the yield determined

by the Company in accordance with the following two paragraphs.

The Treasury Rate shall be determined by the Company 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 securities—Treasury constant maturities—

Nominal” (or any successor caption or heading) (“H.15 TCM”). In determining the

Treasury Rate, the Company 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

September 6, 2034 (the “reset 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 reset 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 Company 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 reset date,

as applicable. If there is no United States Treasury security maturing on the reset date but

there are two or more United States Treasury securities with a maturity date equally

distant from the reset date, one with a maturity date preceding the reset date and one with

a maturity date following the reset date, the Company shall select the United States

Treasury security with a maturity date preceding the reset date. If there are two or more

United States Treasury securities maturing on the reset date or two or more United States

Treasury securities meeting the criteria of the preceding sentence, the Company 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.

(iii) All capitalized terms which are used herein and not otherwise defined herein

are defined in the Base Indenture and are used herein with the same meanings as in the

Base Indenture.

Section 4.5 Effective Date. This Supplemental Indenture shall be effective as

of the date first above written and upon the execution and delivery hereof by each of the parties

hereto.

Section 4.6 Counterparts. This Supplemental Indenture may be executed in

any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all

such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 4.7 Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in the

Indenture, as supplemented and amended by this Supplemental Indenture, by the Company will

bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

Section 4.8 Effect of Headings. The Article and Section headings in this

Supplemental Indenture are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 4.9 Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Supplemental

Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and

enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 4.10 Satisfaction and Discharge. The Company shall be deemed to

have satisfied all of its obligations under this Supplemental Indenture upon compliance with the

provisions of Section 1402 of the Indenture relating to defeasance of the Notes, to the extent set

forth in Section 1401.

Section 4.11 Ratification of the Base Indenture. The Base Indenture as

supplemented by this Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and this

Supplemental Indenture will be deemed part of the Indenture in the manner and to the extent

herein and therein provided.

Section 4.12 Governing Law. This Supplemental Indenture and the Notes

shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Section 4.13 Trustee Disclaimer. The Trustee accepts the amendments of the

Base Indenture effected by this Supplemental Indenture, but on the terms and conditions set forth

in the Base Indenture, including the terms and provisions defining and limiting the liabilities and

responsibilities of the Trustee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall

not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or with respect to (i) any of the recitals

contained herein, all of which recitals are made solely by the Company, (ii) the proper

authorization hereof by the Company by action or otherwise, (iii) the due execution hereof by the

Company or (iv) the consequences of any amendment herein provided for.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Fourteenth Supplemental

Indenture to be duly executed by their respective officers hereunto duly authorized, all as of the

day and year first above written.

REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION

5.502% FIXED RATE / FLOATING RATE SENIOR NOTES DUE 2035

No.U.S.$

CUSIP NO. 7591EP AV2

ISIN NO. US7591EPAV24

REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and

existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Company”, which term

includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value

received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or its registered assigns, the principal sum of

[●] (U.S. $[●]), as revised by the Schedule of Adjustments attached hereto, on September 6,

2035 or if such date is not a Business Day, the following Business Day (the “Maturity Date”).

During the period from, and including, September 6, 2024, to, but excluding,

September 6, 2034 (the “Fixed Rate Period”), the Company promises to pay interest at the rate of

5.502% per annum. Such interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on September 6 and

March 6 of each year, beginning on March 6, 2025 and ending on September 6, 2034 (each such

date, a “Fixed Interest Payment Date”).

During the period from, and including, September 6, 2034, to, but excluding, the

Maturity Date (the “Floating Rate Period”), the Company promises to pay interest at a floating

rate per annum equal to Compounded SOFR plus 2.060%, as determined by the Calculation

Agent in the manner described below. Such interest will be payable quarterly in arrears on

December 6, 2034, March 6, 2035, June 6, 2035 and at the Maturity Date (each such date, a

“Floating Interest Payment Date”). Compounded SOFR for each interest period in the Floating

Rate Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the formula set forth

below with respect to the Observation Period relating to such interest period.

For the Fixed Rate Period, interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day

year consisting of twelve 30 day months. For the Fixed Rate Period, if any Fixed Interest

Payment Date or Redemption Date of the Notes falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the

related payment of interest will be made on the next day that is a Business Day with the same

force and effect as if made on the applicable interest payment date, and no interest shall accrue

on the amount payable for the period from and after such applicable interest payment date.

For the Floating Rate Period, interest will be computed on the basis of the actual

number of days in each interest period (or any other relevant period) and a 360-day year. The

amount of accrued interest payable on the Notes for each interest period during the Floating Rate

Period will be computed by multiplying (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Notes by (ii)

the product of (a) the interest rate for the relevant interest period multiplied by (b) the quotient of

the actual number of days in the applicable interest period divided by 360. The interest rate on

the Notes will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the

same may be modified by United States law of general application and will in no event be lower

than zero. For the Floating Rate Period, if any Floating Interest Payment Date of the Notes (other

A-3

than the Maturity Date) falls on a day which is not a Business Day, that Floating Interest

Payment Date will be postponed and the related payment of interest on the Notes will be made

on the next day which is a Business Day, except that if the next succeeding Business Day falls in

the next calendar month, then such Floating Interest Payment Date will be advanced to the

immediately preceding day that is a Business Day, and in each case, the related interest periods

will also be adjusted for such non-Business Days.

The Calculation Agent will determine Compounded SOFR, the interest rate and

accrued interest for each interest period in the Floating Rate Period in arrears as soon as

reasonably practicable on or after the Interest Payment Determination Date for such interest

period and prior to the relevant Floating Interest Payment Date and will notify the Company (if

the Company is not the Calculation Agent) and the Trustee in writing of Compounded SOFR,

such interest rate and accrued interest for each interest period in the Floating Rate Period as soon

as reasonably practicable after such determination, but in any event by the Business Day

immediately prior to the relevant Floating Interest Payment Date. At the request of a Holder of

the Notes, the Company will provide Compounded SOFR, the interest rate and the amount of

interest accrued with respect to any interest period in the Floating Rate Period, after

Compounded SOFR, such interest rate and accrued interest have been determined. The

Calculation Agent’s determination of any interest rate, and its calculation of interest payments

for any interest period in the Floating Rate Period, will be maintained on file at the Calculation

Agent’s principal offices and will be provided in writing to the trustee.

“Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is neither a

legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or

required by law, regulation or executive order to close.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest

Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note

(or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the record date

for such interest period, which, in the case of Notes in definitive form, shall be 15 days, whether

or not a Business Day, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date or, if this Note is in

the form of a Global Note, the close of business on the Business Day preceding the related

Interest Payment Date, except that interest payable on the Maturity Date or any Redemption Date

will be paid to the Person to whom principal is paid. 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 Note (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 Securities of this series not

less than 10 days prior to such record date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not

inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed,

and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the

Indenture.

Compounded SOFR

A-4

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” means, 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 September 6, 2034 (the date that is two U.S. Government Securities Business

Days before the first day of such initial interest period);

“SOFR IndexEnd” means the SOFR Index value on the Interest Payment

Determination Date relating to the applicable Floating Interest Payment Date (or in the final

interest period, relating to the Maturity Date, or, in the case of the redemption of the Notes,

relating to the applicable Redemption Date); and

“d” is the number of 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 Interest Payment Date (or, in the case of the

redemption of the Notes, 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 Interest Payment Date for such

interest period (or in the final interest period during the Floating Rate Period, preceding the

Maturity Date or, in the case of the redemption of the 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 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 and its related

A-5

Benchmark Replacement Date have not occurred with respect to SOFR, Compounded SOFR

shall be the rate determined pursuant to the “SOFR Index unavailable provisions” described

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 Benchmark Transition Event” provisions described 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 Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the

“FRBNY”) (or a successor administrator of SOFR).

“SOFR Administrator’s Website” means the website of the FRBNY, currently at

http://apps.newyorkfed.org/markets/autorates/sofr-avg-ind, 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 the Notes, if the

Company or its designee determines on or prior to the relevant Reference Time 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 will thereafter

apply to all determinations of the rate of interest payable on the Notes.

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 Company promises to pay an annual interest rate for each interest period

during the Floating Rate Period equal to the sum of the Benchmark Replacement plus 2.060% for

the Notes.

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 in the Floating Rate 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/reference-rates/

additional-information-about-reference-rates, or any successor source. 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

A-6

preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day for which SOFR was published on the

SOFR Administrator’s Website.

Effect of 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 on any date, the

Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes relating to the

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 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

described 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 on the beneficial owners and Holders of the

Notes and the Trustee absent manifest error;

• if made by the Company as Calculation Agent, will be made in the Company’s

sole discretion;

• if made by a Calculation Agent other than the Company or its designee (which

may be the Company’s affiliate), will be made after consultation with the Company, and such

Calculation Agent or designee (which may be the Company’s affiliate) will not make any such

determination, decision or election to which the Company reasonably object; and

• notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture or the Notes, shall

become effective without consent from the Holders of the Notes, the Trustee 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 the Company’s affiliate)

on the basis as described above, and in no event shall the Calculation Agent be responsible for

making any such determination, decision or election.

Under no circumstances will the Trustee (in any capacity in which it may act,

including, without limitation, if relevant, as Calculation Agent) be responsible for selecting or

determining any Benchmark Replacement if the Benchmark will no longer be available

following a Benchmark Transaction Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date. In the

case of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Company will select the Benchmark Replacement

A-7

prior to the Benchmark Replacement Date and in consultation with the Calculation Agent,

ensuring that the Calculation Agent will be able to meet its obligations and requirements under

the Indenture with respect to the Benchmark Replacement. No such replacement (including any

conforming changes to the Indenture) shall affect the Trustee’s or the Calculation Agent’s own

rights, duties or immunities under the indenture or otherwise.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Trustee (in any capacity in which it may act,

including, without limitation, if relevant, as Calculation Agent) shall be under no obligation (i) to

monitor, determine or verify the unavailability or cessation of any index or interest rate,

Compounded SOFR or SOFR Index or SOFR, (ii) to select, determine or designate any successor

or replacement index, or whether the conditions to the designation of such an index or rate for

the Notes have been satisfied, or (iii) to determine whether or what changes are necessary or

advisable, if any, in connection with any of the foregoing.

The Trustee (in any capacity in which it may act, including, without limitation, if

relevant, as Calculation Agent) shall not be liable for any inability, failure or delay on the part of

the Trustee (or Calculation Agent) in performing any of its duties set forth in the Indenture as a

result of the unavailability of SOFR or any index and designation of a replacement rate or

replacement index, including as a result of any inability, delay, error or inaccuracy on the part of

the Company or the part of its designee in providing any direction, instruction, notice, or

information required or contemplated by the terms of the Indenture and reasonably required for

the performance of such duties. The Trustee (in any capacity in which it may act, including,

without limitation, if relevant, as Calculation Agent) shall not have any duty to succeed to,

assume or otherwise perform any of the Company’s duties or the duties of its designee in the

event of a default, breach or failure of performance on the Company’s part or the part of the

Company’s designee, as applicable. The Trustee (in any capacity in which it may act, including,

without limitation, if relevant, as Calculation Agent (unless specifically agreed otherwise in

writing in its capacity as Calculation Agent)) will not be responsible for (i) determining the

SOFR, SOFR rate, any rate related to, or based on, SOFR or any other rate or any successor or

replacement rate or any changes related to SOFR in connection with any of the foregoing, (ii)

monitoring, determining or verifying the unavailability or cessation of SOFR, the SOFR rate, any

rate related to, or based on, SOFR and shall not have any liability for the failure of any party to

set such rate or provide notice related thereto.

“Benchmark” means, initially, Compounded SOFR; 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 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.

A-8

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 the replacement for the then-current

Benchmark and (b) the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment;

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;

2. if the applicable Unadjusted Benchmark Replacement is equivalent to the ISDA

Fallback Rate, the ISDA Fallback Adjustment; 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).

A-9

“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);

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 firm appointed by the Company prior to the

commencement of the Floating Rate Period. The Company or an affiliate of the Company may

assume the duties of the Calculation Agent.

A-10

“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 Board of Governors of the Federal

Reserve System and/or the FRBNY, or a committee officially endorsed or convened by the

Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and/or the FRBNY or any successor thereto.

excluding the Benchmark Replacement Adjustment.

Payments of principal shall be made upon the surrender of this Note at the

Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or at such other office or agency of the Company as may

be designated by the Company for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New

York or in the City of Birmingham, Alabama, in such coin or currency of the United States of

not be required to make any payment with respect to any tax, assessment or other governmental

charge imposed by any government or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or

therein.

REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of senior debt securities of the

Company designated as its “5.502% Fixed Rate / Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2035” (the

“Notes”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount to U.S. $1,000,000,000 issued and to be

issued under an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2005 (herein called the “Base Indenture”),

between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee (the “Trustee”,

which term includes any successor trustee under the Base Indenture), as amended and

supplemented by the Fourteenth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 6, 2024 between

the Company and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture”; the Base Indenture, as amended

and supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, 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 Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and

delivered. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes

are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denominations

as requested by the Holder surrendering the same upon surrender of the Note or Notes to be

exchanged, at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. The Trustee upon such surrender by the

Holder will issue the new Notes in the requested denominations.

No sinking fund is provided with respect to the Notes.

On and after March 6, 2025 (181 days after the issue date) (or, if additional Notes

are issued, beginning 181 days after the issue date of such additional Notes) and prior to

September 6, 2034, the Company may redeem the Notes at the Company’s option, in whole or in

part, at any time and from time to time, at a Redemption Price (expressed as a percentage of

principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) equal to the greater of:

(1) (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 to be

redeemed matured on September 6, 2034) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year

consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as such term is defined in the

Supplemental Indenture) plus 25 basis points, less (2) interest accrued to the Redemption Date;

and

(2) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed;

plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

The Securities will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole, but not in

part, on September 6, 2034 at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the aggregate principal

amount of the Securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to but excluding, the

Redemption Date.

On and after June 6, 2035, the Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at

any time and from time to time, at the Company’s option at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of

A-14

the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest

thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. If the Redemption Price in respect of the

Notes is not paid on the Redemption Date, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the

Notes will continue to accrue until the Redemption Price is actually paid or set aside for

payment. The Notes will not be subject to redemption or repayment at the option of any Holder

at any time prior to the Maturity Date.

The Notes are unsecured and rank equally among themselves and with all of the

Company’s other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness.

The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations

of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

The Company may, without consent of the Holders of the Notes, increase the

principal amount of the Notes by issuing additional securities in the future on the same terms and

conditions as the Notes, except for any difference in the issue price and interest accrued prior to

the date of issuance of the additional securities, and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes.

The Notes and any additional Notes issued by the Company would rank equally and ratably and

would be treated as a single series for all purposes under the Indenture.

If the Maturity Date or a Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business

Day, any payment in relation to such date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business

Day, and no interest shall accrue on the amount payable for the period from and after such

Maturity Date or Redemption Date.

If an Event of Default with respect to this series (other than an Event of Default

under Section 501(4) of the Base Indenture relating to a breach of the covenant contained in

clause (x) of the second paragraph of Section 1009 of the Base Indenture) shall occur and be

continuing, the principal of all the Notes, together with accrued interest to the date of declaration,

may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

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 Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the

Trustee with the written consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of

the Notes at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders

of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of

the Holders of all the Notes, 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 Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder

and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu

hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note or such other

Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this

Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the

A-15

appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall

have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default, the Holders of

not less than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written request

to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered

the Trustee indemnity satisfactory to it and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders

of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such

request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such

notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by any

Holder of this Note for the enforcement of any payment of principal of or interest on this Note or

after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note 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 on this Note at the times, places and rate, and

in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

The Notes will be subject to defeasance and covenant defeasance pursuant to

Sections 1402 and 1403 of the Base Indenture.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,

the transfer of this Note is registrable on the Security Register upon surrender of this Note for

registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at such other office or

agency of the Company as may be designated by it for such purpose in the Borough of

Manhattan, The City of New York or the City of Birmingham, Alabama (which shall initially be

an office or agency of the Trustee), or at such other offices or agencies as the Company may

designate, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form

satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or

his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities, of authorized

denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated

transferee or transferees by the Security Registrar. No service charge shall be made for any such

registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to

recover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentation of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company,

the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name

this Note is registered, as the owner thereof for all purposes, whether or not such Security be

overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to

the contrary.

No recourse for the payment of the principal of or interest on this Note and no

recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture

or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Note, or because of the creation of any

indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, employee,

agent, officer or director or subsidiary, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any

successor corporation, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation,

A-16

whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any

assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part

of consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

THE INDENTURE AND THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND

CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW

YORK.

All capitalized terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture, and not

otherwise defined herein, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Exhibit 5.1

[Letterhead of Sullivan & Cromwell LLP]

September 6, 2024

Regions Financial Corporation,

1900 Fifth Avenue North,

Birmingham, Alabama 35203.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

In connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) of

$1,000,000,000 principal amount of 5.502% Fixed Rate / Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2035

(the “Securities”) of Regions Financial Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),

we, as your counsel, have examined such corporate records, certificates and other documents,

and such questions of law, as we have considered necessary or appropriate for the purposes of

this opinion.

Upon the basis of such examination, we advise you that, in our opinion, the

Securities constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, subject to

bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of

general applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equity principles.

In rendering the foregoing opinion, we are expressing no opinion as to Federal or

state laws relating to fraudulent transfers and we are not passing upon, and assume no

responsibility for, any disclosure in any registration statement or any related prospectus or other

offering material relating to the offer and sale of the Securities.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the Federal laws of the United States, the laws

of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and we are

expressing no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction.

We have relied as to certain factual matters on information obtained from public

officials, officers of the Company and other sources believed by us to be responsible, and we

have assumed that the Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture under which the Securities were

issued have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee thereunder, an

assumption which we have not independently verified.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to a Current Report

on Form 8-K to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement relating to the

Securities and to the references to us under the heading “Validity of the Notes” in the Prospectus

Supplement relating to the Securities, dated September 3, 2024. In giving such consent, we do

not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section

7 of the Act.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Sullivan & Cromwell LLP

Exhibit 8.1

[Letterhead of Sullivan & Cromwell LLP]

September 6, 2024

Regions Financial Corporation,

1900 Fifth Avenue North,

Birmingham, Alabama 35203.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

As tax counsel to Regions Financial Corporation in connection with the issuance

of $1,000,000,000 principal amount of 5.502% Fixed Rate / Floating Rate Senior Notes due 2035

(the “Notes”), as described in the prospectus supplement, dated September 3, 2024 (the

“Prospectus Supplement”), to the prospectus dated February 24, 2022, we hereby confirm to you

that, subject to the qualifications, limitations and assumptions set forth in the Prospectus

Supplement, we are of the opinion that the material federal tax consequences to the holders of the

Notes are as set forth in the Prospectus Supplement under the caption “Material United States

Federal Income Tax Consequences”.

Our opinion set forth above is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as

amended, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative pronouncements and

judicial precedents, all as of the date hereof. The foregoing authorities may be repealed, revoked

or modified, and any such change may have retroactive effect.

We express no opinion with respect to the transactions referred to herein or in the

Prospectus Supplement other than as expressly set forth herein, nor do we express any opinion

herein concerning any law other than the federal tax law of the United States. Moreover, we note

that our opinion is not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or courts, either of which could

take a contrary position.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration

Statement under which the Notes have been offered and sold. In giving such consent, we do not

admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the

Act.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Sullivan & Cromwell LLP
