If no Holder’s Optional Repayment Dates are set forth above, this Note may not be so repaid at the option of the Holder hereof prior to the Stated Maturity Date. On any Holder’s Optional Repayment Date, this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part in increments of [$1,000] [Insert other minimum denomination] (provided that any remaining principal hereof shall be at least [$1,000] [Insert such other minimum denomination] ) at the option of the Holder hereof at a repayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, together with interest thereon payable to the date of repayment.

Accrued interest hereon shall be an amount calculated by multiplying the principal amount hereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest factor shall be computed by adding the interest factor calculated for each day from the Original Issue Date or from but excluding the last date for which interest shall have been paid, as the case may be, to the date for which accrued interest is being calculated. The interest factor for each such day shall be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360 or, in the case of Notes having the Treasury Rate or CMT Rate as their Base Rate, by the actual number of days in the year.

Except as described below, this Note will bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the Base Rate specified above (i) plus or minus the Spread, if any, specified above and/or (ii) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified above. The interest rate in effect on each day shall be (a) if such day is an Interest Reset Date specified above, the interest rate with respect to the Interest Determination Date (as defined below) pertaining to such Interest Rate Reset Date or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate with respect to the Interest Determination Date pertaining to the next preceding Interest Reset Date, subject to the Maximum or Minimum Interest Rate specified above, if any, provided that the interest rate in effect from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate; provided further that the Notes will not reset after the Fixed Rate Commencement Date, if any.

The Interest Determination Date with respect to the Federal Funds Rate and the Prime Rate will be the Business Day preceding the Interest Reset Date. The Interest Determination Date with respect to the Certificate of Deposit Rate (the “CD Rate”), the Commercial Paper Rate, and the CMT Rate will be the second Business Day preceding the Interest Reset Date.

The Interest Determination Date with respect to a Note the interest rate of which is determined by two or more Interest Rate Bases shall be the second Business Day next preceding the applicable Interest Reset Date on which each Base Rate is determinable. Each Base Rate shall be determined as of such date, and the applicable interest rate will take effect on the applicable Interest Reset Date.

The “Calculation Date” pertaining to any Interest Determination Date shall be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day and (ii) the Business Day next preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the date of Maturity, as the case may be.

As used herein, “Business Day” means with respect to Notes denominated in U.S. dollars, (i) any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, legal holiday or other day on which banking institutions in The City of New York are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close; provided that in the case

This Note is also issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture regarding payments to Entitled Persons in respect of Other Financial Obligations. Each Holder of this Note, by accepting the same, agrees to be bound by the provisions of the Indenture described herein and authorizes and directs the Trustee to take such action on his behalf as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination of this Note and payment of Excess Proceeds as provided in the Indenture and appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.]

The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, 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 upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

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 any premium and interest on this Note, at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

Prior to due presentment of this Note 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 hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) or the interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, 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 the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.
