which amendment, clarification or change is effective or the Administrative Action is taken or issued, or interpretation or pronouncement is issued or threatened challenge is asserted or becomes publicly-known after the Original Issue Date, there is more than an insubstantial risk that interest payable by the Company on the Notes is not deductible, or within 90 days of the date of such opinion would not be deductible, in whole or in part, by the Company for United States federal income tax purposes.

ARTICLE II

General Terms and Conditions of the Notes

Section 2.01. Terms of Notes. Pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.3 of the Base Indenture, there is hereby established a series of Securities, the terms of which shall be as follows:

(b) Principal Amount. The aggregate principal amount of the Notes shall initially be $280,000,000 (or up to $322,000,000 aggregate principal amount if the underwriters exercise in full their overallotment option to purchase additional Notes granted pursuant to the underwriting agreement relating to the Notes entered into by the Company and the other parties thereto on March 21, 2019). The Company may at any time issue additional securities under the Indenture in unlimited amounts having the same terms (except for the issue date, issue price and, in some cases, the first interest accrual date and first interest payment date) as the Notes (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture) so that such additional securities shall be consolidated with the Notes, including for purposes of voting and redemption;provided,however, that the Company will use a separate CUSIP for any such additional securities that are not fungible with the original Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any such additional securities shall, together with the outstanding Notes, constitute a single series of debt securities under the Indenture.

(c) Form and Denominations. The Notes will be issued only in fully registered form, and the authorized minimum denominations of the Notes shall be $25 and integral multiples of $25 in excess thereof. The Notes will initially be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities substantially in the form of Annex A attached hereto, with such modifications thereto as may be approved by the Officer executing the same, which shall be deposited on behalf of the purchasers of the Notes represented thereby with the Trustee as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (the “Depository”) and registered in the name of Cede & Co., the Depository’s nominee, duly executed by the Company, and, upon receipt of a Company Order, authenticated by the Trustee. In limited circumstances, the Notes may be represented by notes in certificated form. The Notes will be denominated in U.S. Dollars and payments of principal and interest will be made in U.S. Dollars.

(d) Sinking Fund; Holder Repurchase Right. The Notes shall not be subject to any sinking fund or analogous provision or be redeemable at the option of the Holders.

(e) Forms. The Notes shall be substantially in the form of Annex A attached hereto, with such modifications thereto as may be approved by the Officer executing the same.

(f) Security Registrar, Paying Agent and Place of Payment. The Company hereby appoints U.S. Bank National Association as Security Registrar and Paying Agent with respect to the Notes. The Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer and for exchange at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for such purpose. The place of payment for the Notes shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee.

(g) Subordination. The subordination provisions of the Base Indenture, including the provisions contained in Article XII and the definition of “Senior Indebtedness” set forth in Section 1.1, shall apply to the Notes.

(h) Defeasance. The Notes shall be defeasible pursuant to both Sections 11.3 and 11.4 of the Base Indenture, and the provisions of Article XI of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes.

Section 2.02. Payment of Principal and Interest.

(a) The principal of the Notes shall be due on the Maturity Date (unless earlier redeemed). The unpaid principal amount of the Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 5.875% per annum (the “Securities Rate”) from the Original Issue Date. Subject to Section 2.03, interest on the Notes shall be payable quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of each year, beginning June 30, 2019 (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”), to the Person in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date.

(b) Payments of interest on the Notes will include interest accrued to but excluding the respective Interest Payment Dates. Interest payments for the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a360-day year of twelve30-day months. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Notes is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), with the same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable.

Section 2.03. Deferral of Interest Payments.

(a) The Company may, at its option, on one or more occasions, defer payment of all or part of the current and accrued interest otherwise due on the Notes by extending the interest payment period for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods (each period, commencing on the date that the first such interest payment would otherwise have been made, an “Optional Deferral Period”). A deferral of interest payments may not extend beyond the Maturity Date or end on a day other than an Interest Payment Date. Any deferred interest on the Notes will accrue additional interest at the Securities Rate from the applicable Interest Payment Date to the date of payment, compounded quarterly (such deferred interest and additional interest accrued thereon, “Additional Interest”), to the extent permitted under applicable law. No interest shall be due and payable on the Notes until the end of an Optional Deferral Period, except upon a redemption of the Notes during such Optional Deferral Period.

(b) Prior to the termination of any Optional Deferral Period, the Company may further defer the payment of interest by extending such Optional Deferral Period; provided that such Optional Deferral Period together with all such previous and further deferrals of interest payments shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods at any one time or extend beyond the Maturity Date. Upon the termination of any Optional Deferral Period or on any Redemption Date, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on the Notes, including any Additional Interest, (i) to the Person in whose name the Notes are registered on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accrued and unpaid on the Notes, including any Additional Interest, payable at the Maturity Date or on any Redemption Date will be paid to the Person to whom principal is payable, or (ii) to the Person entitled to receive the Redemption Price in accordance with Article III of the Base Indenture. Once the Company pays all interest accrued and unpaid on the Notes, including any Additional Interest, it shall be entitled again to defer interest payments on the Notes as described above.

(c) During an Optional Deferral Period, subject to Section 2.03(d), the Company shall not (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any distributions, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its Capital Stock, or (ii) make any payment of interest on, principal of or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities (including guarantees) issued by the Company which rank equally (“pari passu securities”) or junior (“junior securities”), in each case, in right of payment to the Notes.

(d) Section 2.03(c) shall not restrict:

(i) any of the actions described in Section 2.03(c) resulting from any reclassification of the Company’s Capital Stock or the exchange or conversion of one class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock for another class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock,

(ii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s Capital Stock pursuant to an acquisition or the conversion or exchange provisions of such Capital Stock or the security being converted or exchanged,

(iii) dividends, payments or distributions payable in shares of Capital Stock or warrants, options or rights to acquire the Company’s Capital Stock,

(iv) redemptions, purchases or other acquisitions of shares of Capital Stock in connection with any employment contract, incentive plan, benefit plan or other similar arrangement of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or in connection with a dividend reinvestment or stock purchase plan,

(v) any declaration of a dividend in connection with implementation of any stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any such plan, or the redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of any such rights pursuant thereto,

(vi) redemptions, purchases or other acquisitions of shares of Capital Stock in connection with the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract entered into prior to the beginning of the applicable Optional Deferral Period,

(vii) (x) any payment of current or deferred interest (or setting aside a sum sufficient for the payment thereof) on any pari passu securities that is made pro rata to the amounts due on such pari passu securities and the Notes and (y) any payment of principal or current or deferred interest on pari passu securities that, if not made, would cause the Company to breach the terms of the instrument governing such pari passu securities,

(viii) the payment of any dividend or distribution on the Company’s Capital Stock within 30 days after the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution, if the dividend or distribution would have been permitted under the Indenture on the date of declaration, or

(ix) the redemption of pari passu securities or junior securities within 60 days after the date on which notice of redemption was given, if at the time the notice was given, such redemption would have been permitted under the Indenture.

(e) The Company shall provide written notice of its selection or extension of an Optional Deferral Period to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at least 10 Business Days and not more than 60 Business Days prior to the earlier of (i) the next applicable Interest Payment Date or (ii) the date, if any, upon which the Company is required to give notice of such Interest Payment Date or the Regular Record Date thereof to the New York Stock Exchange or any applicable self-

regulatory organization. In addition, the Company shall deliver to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating whether or not a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Subject to the delivery of the Officer’s Certificate described in the immediately preceding sentence, the Trustee shall forward such written notice promptly to the Holders of the Notes as provided in Section 1.6 of the Base Indenture.

Section 2.04. Redemption at the Company’s Option.

(a) At any time and from time to time on or after March 30, 2024, the Notes will be subject to redemption at the option of the Company in whole or in part upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Notes being redeemed to the Redemption Date.

(b) At any time prior to March 30, 2024, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice following the occurrence of a Tax Event, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed plus any accrued but unpaid interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date.

(d) In the event of redemption of the Notes in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion will be issued in the name or names of the Holders thereof upon the surrender thereof.

(e) Notice of redemption shall be given as provided in Section 3.4 of the Base Indenture.

(f) Any redemption of less than all of the Notes shall, with respect to the principal thereof, be divisible by $25.

Section 2.05. Events of Default.

(a) For the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and for purposes of this First Supplemental Indenture only, Section 7.1 the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Section 7.1. Events of Default

“Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to the Notes, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body or occasioned by the operation of Article XII of the Base Indenture):

(1) the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of (A) a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or (B) a decree or order adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under any applicable Federal or State law, or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

(2) the commencement by the Company of a voluntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or of any other case or proceeding to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the entry of a decree or order for relief in respect of the Company in an involuntary case or proceeding under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law or to the commencement of any bankruptcy or insolvency case or proceeding against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under any applicable Federal or State law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or the making by the Company of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by the Company in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in furtherance of any such action.

With respect to the Notes, and for purposes of this Section 7.1, the term “Default” means the following events: (a) default in the payment of any interest upon any of the Notes when due and payable on an Interest Payment Date other than at Maturity, including Additional Interest in respect thereof, and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days; provided, however, that a valid extension of the interest payment period by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Indenture shall not constitute a default in the payment of interest for this purpose, (b) default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any), or interest (including Additional Interest) on, the Notes when due and payable at Maturity or earlier redemption or (c) default in the performance or breach of any covenant or warranty of the Company in the Indenture (other than a covenant or warranty a default in whose performance or whose breach is addressed in clause (a) or (b) of this paragraph), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 90 days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee, or to the Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, a written notice specifying such default or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Covenant Default” hereunder.

Upon the occurrence and continuance of a Default, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes will have the same rights and remedies, and will be subject to the same limitations, restrictions, protections and exculpations, and the Company will be subject to the same obligations and restrictions, in each case, as would apply if such Default was an Event of Default or an event which after notice or lapse of time or both would become an Event of Default; provided that the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) on the Notes may not be declared

immediately due and payable by reason of the occurrence and continuation of a Default, and any notice of declaration or acceleration based on such Default will be null and void with respect to the Notes; provided, further, that in case a Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee will not be subject to the requirement to exercise, in respect of the rights and powers vested in it by the Indenture, the same degree of care as a prudent Person would exercise in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

If there occurs a Default specified in clauses (a) or (b) of the second preceding paragraph, the Trustee may or, if directed by the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, shall, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, demand payment of the amount then due and payable and may institute judicial proceedings for the collection of such amount if the Company fails to make payment thereof upon demand.

The Trustee shall have no right or obligation under the Indenture or otherwise to exercise any remedies on behalf of any Holders of the Notes in connection with any default, unless such remedies are available under the Indenture and the Trustee is directed to exercise such remedies pursuant to and subject to the conditions of Section 7.12 of the Base Indenture, provided, however, that this provision shall not affect the rights of the Trustee with respect to any Events of Default as set forth in Section 7.1 of the Base Indenture that may occur with respect to the Notes. In connection with any such exercise of remedies, the Trustee shall be entitled to the same immunities and protections and remedial rights (other than acceleration) as if such Default were an Event of Default.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.3(i) of the Base Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of an Event of Default hereunder unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received written notice thereof.”

(b) For the benefit of the Holders of the Notes and for purposes of this First Supplemental Indenture only, Section 7.2 the Base Indenture shall be amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

“Section 7.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

If an Event of Default occurs, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest (including Additional Interest) on the Notes shall be immediately due and payable without declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of the Notes.”

Section 2.06. Supplemental Indentures.

For the avoidance of doubt, as referenced in Section 10.1(15) of the Base Indenture, without the consent of or notice to any Holders, the Company and the Trustee (at the direction of the Company) at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental to the Base Indenture (including any related opinions, certificates and ancillary documents), in form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, to conform the terms of the Base Indenture, this First Supplemental Indenture or the Notes to the description thereof in the Company’s prospectus supplement dated March 21, 2019 relating to the Notes.

Affiliated Managers Group, Inc., a corporation duly incorporated and subsisting under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of [*] million U.S. Dollars (U.S. $[*]) on March 30, 2059 and to pay interest thereon from March 27, 2019 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 in each year, commencing June 30, 2019, at the rate of 5.875% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment.

The Company may, at its option, on one or more occasions, defer payment of all or part of the current and accrued interest otherwise due on the Notes in accordance with Section 2.03 of the First Supplemental Indenture (as defined on the reverse of this Note).

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such 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 Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture (as defined on the reverse of this Note), any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular 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 Special Record Date for the payment of such defaulted interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes of this series not less than ten 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 Notes of this series shall be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by any such exchange, as more fully provided in the Indenture.

Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note shall be made at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee maintained for that purpose, in such currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts;provided, however, for so long as the Notes are represented in global form by one or more Global Securities, all payments of principal and interest shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Depository or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered owner of the Global Security representing such Notes.

This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $280,000,000 (or up to $322,000,000 aggregate principal amount if the underwriters exercise in full their overallotment option to purchase additional Notes granted pursuant to the underwriting agreement relating to the Notes entered into by the Company and the other parties thereto on March 21, 2019). The Company may at any time issue other debt securities under the Indenture. The Company may at any time issue additional securities under the Indenture in unlimited amounts having the same terms (except for the issue date, issue price and, in some cases, the first interest accrual date and first interest payment date) as the Notes (except as otherwise provided in the Indenture) so that such additional securities shall be consolidated with the Notes, including for purposes of voting and redemption;provided,however, that the Company will use a separate CUSIP for any such additional securities that are not fungible with the original Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any such additional securities shall, together with the outstanding Notes, constitute a single series of debt securities under the Indenture.

At any time and from time to time on or after March 30, 2024, the Notes will be subject to redemption at the option of the Company in whole or in part upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Notes being redeemed to the Redemption Date.

At any time prior to March 30, 2024, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice following the occurrence of a Tax Event, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be redeemed plus any accrued but unpaid interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date.

At any time prior to March 30, 2024, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole but not in part, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ notice, given within the 90 days after the occurrence of a Rating Agency Event, at a Redemption Price equal to 102% of the principal amount to be redeemed plus any accrued but unpaid interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date.
