3M Company, a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (hereinafter called the “Company”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of New York Depository (Nominees) Limited, as nominee of The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch as common depositary for Clearstream Banking S.A. and Euroclear Bank SA/NV, or registered assigns, as principal the Principal Amount on the Stated Maturity Date and to pay interest thereon, at the Interest Rate shown above (computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the period for which interest is being calculated divided by the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid on this Security (or the Original Issue Date, if no interest has been paid on this Security), to, but not including, the next scheduled Interest Payment Date (such payment convention being referred to as ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)), annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date set forth above from and after the date of this Security and at Maturity until payment of the principal amount hereof has been made or duly provided for. Each payment of interest due on an Interest Payment Date or the date of Maturity will include interest accrued from and including the last date to which interest has been paid, or made available for payment, or from the Original Issue Date if none has been paid, or made available for payment, to but excluding the Interest Payment Date or the date of Maturity, as the case may be. Unless this Security is a Security which has been issued upon transfer of, in exchange for, or in replacement of, a Predecessor Security, interest on this Security shall accrue from the Original Issue Date indicated above. If this Security has been issued upon transfer of, in exchange for, or in replacement of, a Predecessor Security, interest on this Security shall accrue from the last Interest Payment Date to which interest was paid on such Predecessor Security or, if no interest was paid on such Predecessor Security, from the Original Issue Date indicated above. Any premium and any such installment of interest that is overdue at any time shall also bear interest (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), at the rate per annum at which the principal then bears interest, from the date any such overdue amount first becomes due until it is paid or made available for payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest on any principal, premium or installment of interest that is overdue shall be payable on demand.

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 Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the applicable Regular Record Date specified on the face hereof. If interest is due at Maturity but on a day that is not an Interest Payment Date, interest will be paid to the Person entitled to receive the principal hereof. Any interest so payable, but not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and such Defaulted Interest either may be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this Security not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which this Security may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

The amount payable on any date in euro will be converted into U.S. dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion, on the basis of the most recent U.S. dollar/euro exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date. Any payment in respect of this Security so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under this Security or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent will have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing.

The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as paying agent with respect to this Security (in such capacity, together with any successor thereto, the “Paying Agent”).

Manner of Payment

Payments in respect of this Security (including principal, premium, if any, interest and additional amounts, if any) will be made to the Paying Agent one Business Day prior to the date such payment is due. The Paying Agent will then make such payments to Clearstream and Euroclear, which will in turn distribute such payments to their participants in accordance with their respective procedures. After payment to the Paying Agent, neither the Company nor the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for the payment of interest, principal or other amounts to the owners of beneficial interests in this Security.

Manner of Payment - Global Securities

Notwithstanding any provision of this Security or the Indenture, if this Security is a Global Security, the Company may make any and all payments of principal, premium and interest on this Security pursuant to the applicable policies of Euroclear and Clearstream for this Security as permitted in the Indenture.

Payments Due on a Business Day

Unless otherwise specified on the face of this Security, the following provisions shall apply to this Security. Notwithstanding any provision of this Security or the Indenture, if any date on which interest is payable on this Security (other than the Stated Maturity Date or any earlier date of redemption) is not a Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the scheduled payment date. If the Stated Maturity Date or any earlier date of redemption of this Security is not a Business Day, the required payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if it were made on the date such payment was due and no additional interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after the Stated Maturity Date or such date of redemption, as the case may be. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply to this Security in lieu of the provisions of Section 113 of the Indenture.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

References herein to “this series” mean the series of securities designated on the face hereof.

The Company may, from time to time, without the consent of or notice to existing Holders of the Securities, create and issue additional Securities with the same terms and conditions as this Security in all respects, except for the issue date, issue price and, to the extent applicable, the first payment of interest. Additional Securities issued in this manner will be consolidated with and will form a single series with the Securities of this series, unless the additional Securities are not fungible for U.S. federal income tax or securities law purposes with such series.

The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in “Authorized Denominations”, which term shall have the following meaning. Unless otherwise specified, for each Security of this series, the Authorized Denominations shall be €100,000 and integral multiples of €1,000 in excess thereof.

(a) Calculation of Interest. Payments of interest hereon with respect to any Interest Payment Date or at the Maturity of the principal hereof will include interest accrued to but excluding such Interest Payment Date or the date of such Maturity, as the case may be. Interest will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the period for which interest is being calculated divided by the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid on this Security (or the Original Issue Date, if no interest has been paid on this Security), to, but not including, the next scheduled Interest Payment Date (such payment convention being referred to as ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)).

All calculations to be made with respect to this Security will be made by the Company. All percentages resulting from any calculation with respect to this Security will be rounded upward or downward, as appropriate, to the next higher or lower one hundred- thousandth of a percentage point (e.g., 9.876541% (or .09876541) being rounded down to 9.87654% (or .0987654) and 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded up to 9.87655% (or .0987655) ). All amounts used in or resulting from any calculation with respect to this Security will be rounded upward or downward, as appropriate, to the nearest euro cent, with one-half euro cent or more being rounded upward.

(b) Definitions of Terms. As used in this Security, the following terms have the meanings set forth below:

“Business Day” means, for this Security, any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, (i) which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York or the City of London are authorized or required by law or executive order to close and (ii) on which the T2 system, or any successor thereto, operates.

“Clearing System Business Day” means every Monday to Friday, inclusive, except December 25th and January 1st, subject to certain exceptions.

Payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities of this series will be made at the office or agency maintained for that purpose in London (initially the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent). Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. will act as Registrar and Transfer Agent.

ADDENDUM

Optional Make-Whole Redemption and Redemption at Par Prior to Maturity

Prior to July 10, 2034 (two months prior to the Stated Maturity Date of this Security) (the “Par Call Date”), the Company may redeem this Security at its option, in whole or in part, at any time and from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of:

(a) 100% of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed, and

(b) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on this Security to be redeemed that would be due if this Security matured on the Par Call Date (exclusive of interest accrued to the redemption date), discounted to the redemption date on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)), at the applicable Comparable Government Bond Rate (as defined below) plus 15 basis points,

plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.

In addition, at any time on or after the Par Call Date, this Security will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the date of redemption.

If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on this Security (or the portion hereof) to be redeemed on the redemption date is deposited with the Trustee or the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the redemption date and certain other conditions are satisfied, then on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on this Security (or such portion hereof) called for redemption and this Security (or such portion hereof) will cease to be outstanding. If any redemption date is not a Business Day, the Company will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day without any additional interest or other payment due to the delay.

“Comparable Government Bond” means, in relation to any Comparable Government Bond Rate calculation, the German government bond (Bundesanleihe) selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of this Security to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of euro-denominated corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of this Security.

“Comparable Government Bond Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the arithmetic average of the Reference Government Bond Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Government Bond Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Company obtains fewer than four such Reference Government Bond Dealer Quotations, the arithmetic average of all such quotations.

“Comparable Government Bond Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the yield to maturity, expressed as a percentage (rounded to three decimal places, with 0.0005 being rounded upwards), on the third Business Day prior to the date fixed for redemption, calculated in accordance with customary financial practice in pricing new issues of comparable corporate debt securities paying interest on an annual basis (ACTUAL/ACTUAL (ICMA)) of the Comparable Government Bond, assuming a price for the Comparable Government Bond (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Government Bond Price for such redemption date.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Government Bond Dealers selected by the Company.

“Reference Government Bond Dealer” means (i) each of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, Merrill Lynch International, Citigroup Global Markets Limited and J.P. Morgan Securities plc or any of their affiliates that are primary European government securities dealers, and their respective successors; provided that if any of the foregoing or any of their affiliates shall cease to be a primary European government securities dealer (a “Primary Dealer”), the Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Dealer and (ii) two other Primary Dealers selected by the Company.

“Reference Government Bond Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Government Bond Dealer and any redemption date, the arithmetic average, as determined by the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Government Bond (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Company by such Reference Government Bond Dealer at 11:00 a.m., Central European Time (CET), on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. The Trustee shall have no duty to calculate the redemption price.

Notice of any redemption pursuant to this heading “Optional Make-Whole Redemption and Redemption at Par Prior to Maturity” will be mailed or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each Holder of this Security to be redeemed.

In the case of a partial redemption, selection of this Security for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other applicable method. No Securities of a principal amount of €100,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If this Security is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to this Security will state the portion of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed. A new Security in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of this Security will be issued in the name of the Holder of this Security upon surrender for cancellation of the original Security. For so long as this Security is held by Euroclear or Clearstream (or another depositary), the redemption of this Security shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.

Notice of any redemption of this Security in connection with a transaction or an event may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Company’s discretion, the redemption date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date, or by the redemption date as so delayed. The Company will provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business two Business Days prior to the redemption date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee will provide such notice to each Holder of this Security to be redeemed in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given.

Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on this Security, or portions hereof, called for redemption.

If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (as defined on the reverse of this Security) or any change in, or amendments to, an official position regarding the application, interpretation, administration, or enforcement thereof (including by virtue of any action taken by a taxing authority, a holding, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company), or a change in published administrative practice) that is announced and/or becomes effective on or after September 3, 2026 (or, if the Tax Jurisdiction is not the United States, after the date such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction), based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Company, the Company becomes or will become obligated to pay additional amounts as described on the reverse of this Security under the heading “Payment of Additional Amounts” with respect to this Security, then the Company may at any time at its option redeem this Security, in whole, but not in part, on not less than 10 nor more than 90 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of this Security, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional amounts), to, but not including, the redemption date.

The Company will not give any such notice of redemption earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to pay additional amounts if a payment in respect of this Security was then due, and the law giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts (whether the obligation to withhold is then effective or will become effective after the notice) must be in effect at the time such notice is given.
