ALPHABET INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any

successor thereto under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), 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. (“Clearstream”) and Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. (“Euroclear”), or their registered assigns, at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose, which shall initially

be the corporate

trust office of the Paying Agent, the principal sum of ONE HUNDRED THIRTY FIVE BILLION FIVE HUNDRED MILLION YEN (¥135,500,000,000) (or such other principal amount as shall be set forth in the

Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Note attached hereto) on May 16, 2029, and to pay interest thereon from May 21, 2026 or from the next preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for,

semi-annually in arrears on May 16 and November 16 of each year, beginning on November 16, 2026 on said principal sum, at the rate of 1.965% per annum, on the basis of the actual number of days in the period for which interest is

being calculated and the actual number of days from and including the last date on which interest was paid (or May 21, 2026 if no interest has been paid), to, but not including, the next scheduled Interest Payment Date, until the principal

hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available for payment and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at such rate on any overdue principal and premium and on any overdue installment of interest.

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 May 1 or November 1 immediately preceding the next applicable Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business

Day). 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 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 Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special

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 Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as,

more fully provided in said Indenture.

As used in this Security, the term “Business Day” means any day, other than a

Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York, the City of Tokyo or the City of London are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.

Initially, The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, will act as Paying Agent. The Company may change the Paying Agent without notice to

any Holder. 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);

provided that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Register or by wire transfer as provided in the Indenture.

The term “yen” or “¥” mean the lawful currency of Japan.

All payments on the Securities of this series will be payable in yen; provided that if on or after May 15, 2026, yen is unavailable to

the Company due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its control or if yen is no longer being used for the settlement of transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking community, then all

payments in respect of the Securities of

this series will be made in U.S. dollars until yen is again available to the Company or so used. The amount payable on any date in yen 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 yen/U.S.

Dollar exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event The Wall Street Journal has not published such exchange rate, the rate will be determined in the

Company’s sole discretion on the basis of the most recently available market yen/U.S. Dollar exchange rate. Any payment in respect of the Securities of this series so made in U.S. dollars will not constitute an event of default under the

Securities of this series or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent will have any responsibility for any calculation or conversion in connection with the foregoing.

Reference is made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof. Such further provisions shall for all purposes

have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

This Security shall not be valid or become obligatory for any purpose

until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been manually signed by the Trustee under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, ALPHABET INC. has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

REVERSE OF SECURITY

ALPHABET INC.

1.965% Notes Due

2029

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (hereinafter called the “Securities”) of

the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of February 12, 2016 (the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New York Mellon Trust

Company, N.A., as Trustee (the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee), to which the Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights,

obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature

at different times, may bear interest (if any) at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions (if any), may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds (if any) and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture

provided. This Security is one of a series designated as the 1.965% Notes due 2029 of the Company, limited in aggregate principal amount to ¥135,500,000,000; provided, however, that the Company, without notice to or consent of the

Holders, may issue additional Securities of this series and thereby increase such principal amount in the future, on the same terms and conditions (except for the issue date, public offering price and, if applicable, the date from which interest

accrues and the first Interest Payment Date). Any additional Securities shall be issued under one or more separate CUSIP, ISIN, common code or other identifying number unless such additional Securities are issued pursuant to a “qualified

reopening,” are otherwise treated as part of the same “issue” of debt instruments as the original series or are issued with less than a de minimis amount of original issue discount, in each case for U.S. federal income tax

purposes.

Interest on the Securities of this series will be computed on the basis of a 360-day

year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The Company shall pay interest on overdue principal, premium, if any, and, to the extent lawful, on overdue installments of interest at the rate per annum borne by this

Security. If any Interest Payment Date, the Stated Maturity or any Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if it

were made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on the amounts so payable for the period from and after such date to the next succeeding Business Day.

In case an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to the 1.965% Notes due 2029 shall have occurred and be continuing,

the principal hereof and the interest accrued hereon, if any, may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions that provide that the Company and the Trustee may enter

into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of amending any provisions of the Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities of such series to be affected with the written consent of the

Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of such series affected by such amendment voting separately; provided that, without the consent of each Holder of the Securities of each series affected thereby, an

amendment may not: (i) extend the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, such Holder’s Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the interest thereon or any premium payable upon redemption

thereof, or change the Currency in which the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on such Security is denominated or payable, or reduce the amount of the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and payable upon a

declaration of acceleration of the Maturity thereof, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date), or materially

adversely affect the economic terms of the Holder’s right to convert or exchange any Security as may be provided in the Indenture; (ii) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, the consent of

whose Holders is required for any supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or certain Defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in the

Indenture; (iii) modify any of the provisions of the Indenture governing amendments or waivers with the consent of Holders except to increase any such percentage or to provide that certain other provisions of the Indenture cannot be modified or

waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby; or (iv) modify, without the written consent of the Trustee, the rights, duties or immunities of the Trustee.

It is also provided in the Indenture that, subject to certain conditions and exceptions, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal

amount of a series of Securities at the time Outstanding may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Securities of such series waive any past Default or Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except a Default in the payment of interest or

any premium on or the principal of the Securities of such series or a Default in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture that cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security of such series.

Upon any such waiver, the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities of such series shall be restored to their former positions and rights under the Indenture, respectively; provided that no such waiver shall extend to any

subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no

provision of this Security 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 Security in the manner, at the place, at the respective times, at

the rate and in the coin or currency herein prescribed.

The Securities of this series will be issued in fully registered form without

coupons in minimum denominations of ¥100,000,000 and multiples of ¥10,000,000 in excess thereof and are transferable and exchangeable at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose, which shall initially be the Corporate

Trust Office of the Trustee, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture.

Subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, the Company will pay as

additional interest on the Securities of this series such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment by the Company or a paying agent of the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Securities of this

series to the beneficial owner that is not a United States person (as defined below), after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or a taxing authority in the

United States, will not be less than the amount provided in this Security to be then due and payable; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts will not apply:

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the holder, a

fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of the holder, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being treated as:

being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the United States, being treated as

having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the United States, or having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States;

having a current or former connection with the United States (other than a connection arising solely as a

result of the ownership of the Securities, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Securities or the enforcement of any rights under the Indenture), including being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being

ordinary course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision;

to any holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Securities, or a portion of the Securities, or that

is a fiduciary, partnership or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not have been entitled

to the payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the

holder or any other person to comply with certification, identification or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of the Securities,

if compliance is required by statute, by regulation of the United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment or other

governmental charge;

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the

Company or a paying agent from the payment;

to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains or personal property tax or

similar tax, assessment or other governmental charge;

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation

by the holder of any Security, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 30 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that is imposed on a

payment pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder,

or any other official interpretations thereof (collectively, “FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith, or any law, regulation or other official guidance enacted in any

jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in respect of FATCA;

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in

law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;

to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner to

fulfill the statement requirements of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code;

10.

to any tax imposed pursuant to Section 871(h)(6) or 881(c)(6) of the Code (or any amended or successor

provisions); or

11.

to any tax imposed as a result of any combination of items (1) through (10).

Except as specifically provided above, the Company will not be required to pay additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment or other
