in whose name the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment. Interest on the Notes will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months.

(e) If any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or Maturity date is not a Business Day, the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest (including any Additional Interest), as applicable, will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, except that if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. No interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Change of Control Payment Date or the Maturity date, as the case may be, to the date payment is made.

(f) All amounts payable in connection with the Notes shall be denominated and payable in the lawful currency of the United States.

(g) The Notes shall be payable and may be presented for registration of transfer and exchange, without service charge, at the office of the Company maintained for such purpose in the State of New York, City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, which shall initially be the office or agency of the Trustee.

(a) Payments. Payments of principal and interest on the Notes shall be made in the manner provided for in the Notes.

Each installment of interest on any Notes shall be paid in same-day funds by transfer to an account maintained by the payee located inside the United States. In the case of a Global Security, semiannual interest payable on any applicable Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Depositary, with respect to that portion of such Global Security held for its account by Cede & Co., for the purpose of permitting such party to credit the interest received by it in respect of such Global Security to the accounts of the beneficial owners thereof.

(vi) if any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the certificate number and portion of the Principal Amount of such Note that is to be redeemed and that, after the Redemption Date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in Principal Amount equal to the unredeemed portion shall be issued in the name of the Holder upon cancellation of the original Note;

At the Company’s request, made at least five Business Days prior to the date upon which such notice is to be mailed, the Paying Agent shall give the notice of redemption in the Company’s name and at the Company’s expense.

THIS NOTE (OR ITS PREDECESSOR) HAS NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), AND, ACCORDINGLY, MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHIN THE UNITED STATES OR TO, OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OR BENEFIT OF, U.S. PERSONS, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN THE NEXT SENTENCE. BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE HOLDER:

(1) REPRESENTS THAT (A) IT IS A “QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER” (AS DEFINED IN RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT) (A “QIB”), OR (B) IT HAS ACQUIRED THIS NOTE IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION IN COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT;

(2) AGREES THAT IT WILL NOT RESELL OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER THIS NOTE OR ANY BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN EXCEPT (A) TO THE COMPANY OR ANY OF ITS SUBSIDIARIES, (B) TO A PERSON WHOM THE SELLER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QIB PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QIB IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144A, (C) IN AN OFFSHORE TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 903 OR 904 OF REGULATION S OF THE SECURITIES ACT, (D) IN A TRANSACTION MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF RULE 144 UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT, (E) IN ACCORDANCE WITH ANOTHER EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT (AND BASED UPON AN OPINION OF COUNSEL ACCEPTABLE TO THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE) OR (F) PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT AND, IN EACH CASE, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION; AND

(3) AGREES THAT IT WILL DELIVER TO EACH PERSON TO WHOM THIS NOTE OR AN INTEREST HEREIN IS TRANSFERRED A NOTICE SUBSTANTIALLY TO THE EFFECT OF THIS LEGEND.

AS USED HEREIN, THE TERMS “OFFSHORE TRANSACTION” AND “UNITED STATES” HAVE THE MEANINGS GIVEN TO THEM BY RULE 902 OF REGULATION S UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT. THE INDENTURE CONTAINS A PROVISION REQUIRING THE TRUSTEE TO REFUSE TO REGISTER ANY TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE IN VIOLATION OF THE FOREGOING.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Global Security or Definitive Security issued pursuant to subparagraph (b)(iv), (c)(iii), (c)(iv), (d)(ii), (d)(iii), (e)(ii), (e)(iii) or (f) to this Section 3.03 (and all Securities issued in exchange therefor or substitution thereof) shall not bear the Restricted Securities Legend.

INTERPUBLIC GROUP OF COMPANIES, INC., 1114 AVENUE OF THE AMERICAS, NEW YORK, NEW YORK 10036, ATTENTION: INVESTOR RELATIONS.

THE RIGHTS ATTACHING TO THIS GLOBAL SECURITY, AND THE CONDITIONS AND PROCEDURES GOVERNING ITS EXCHANGE FOR DEFINITIVE SECURITIES, ARE AS SPECIFIED IN THE INDENTURE (AS DEFINED HEREIN).

(i) Cancellation and/or Adjustment of Global Securities. At such time as all beneficial interests in a particular Global Security have been exchanged for Definitive Securities or a particular Global Security has been redeemed, repurchased or canceled in whole and not in part, each such Global Security shall be returned to or retained and canceled by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture. At any time prior to such cancellation, if any beneficial interest in a Global Security is exchanged for or transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security or for Definitive Securities, the Principal Amount of Notes represented by such Global Security shall be reduced accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such reduction; and if the beneficial interest is being exchanged for or transferred to a Person who shall take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in another Global Security, such other Global Security shall be increased accordingly and an endorsement shall be made on such Global Security by the Trustee or by the Depositary at the direction of the Trustee to reflect such increase.

(j) General Provisions Relating to Transfers and Exchanges.

(i) To permit registrations of transfers and exchanges, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate Global Securities and Definitive Securities upon the Company Order or at the Security Registrar’s request.

(ii) No service charge shall be made to a Holder of a beneficial interest in a Global Security or to a Holder of a Definitive Security for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith (other than exchanges pursuant to Section 3.04, 9.06 or 11.07 of the Base Indenture or Section 2.04 of this Supplemental Indenture, in each case not involving any transfer).

(iii) The Security Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of or exchange any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part.

(iv) All Global Securities and Definitive Securities issued upon any registration of transfer or exchange of Global Securities or Definitive Securities shall be the valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under the Indenture, as the Global Securities or Definitive Securities surrendered upon such registration of transfer or exchange.

(v) The Company shall not be required (A) to issue, to register the transfer of or to exchange any Notes during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of any selection of Notes for redemption under the Indenture and ending at the close of business on the day of selection, (B) to register the transfer of or to exchange any Note so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part, (C) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note between a Regular Record Date and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or (D) to register the transfer of or to exchange a Note tendered and not withdrawn in connection with a Change of Control Offer.

(vi) Prior to due presentment for the registration of a transfer of any Note, the Trustee, Security Registrar, Paying Agent and the Company may deem and treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered as the absolute owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of and interest (including any Additional Interest) on such Notes and for all other purposes, and none of the Trustee, Security Registrar, Paying Agent or the Company shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

(vii) The Trustee shall authenticate Global Securities and Definitive Securities in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

(viii) All certifications, certificates and Opinions of Counsel required to be submitted to the Security Registrar pursuant to this Section 3.03 to effect a registration of transfer or exchange may be submitted by facsimile or electronic transmission with the original to follow by first class mail.

(k) Applicable Procedures for Delegending.

(i) After one year has elapsed following (A) the Issue Date or (B) if the Company has issued any additional Notes with the same terms and the same CUSIP number as the Notes pursuant to the Indenture within one year following the date of original issuance of the Notes, the date of original issuance of such additional Notes, if the Notes are freely tradeable pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act by Holders who are not Affiliates of the Company where no conditions of Rule 144 are then applicable (other than the holding period requirement in paragraph (d)(1)(ii) of Rule 144 so long as such holding period requirement is satisfied), the Company may:

(1) instruct the Trustee in writing to remove the Restricted Securities Legend from the Notes by delivering to the Trustee a certificate in the form of Exhibit E hereto, and upon such instruction the Restricted Securities Legend shall be deemed removed from any Global Securities representing such Notes without further action on the part of Holders;

(2) notify the Holders that the Restricted Securities Legend has been removed or deemed removed; and

(3) instruct the Depositary to change the CUSIP number for the Notes to the unrestricted CUSIP number for the Notes.

In no event will the failure of the Company to provide any notice set forth in this paragraph or of the Trustee to remove the Restricted Securities Legend constitute a failure by the Company to comply with any of its covenants or agreements set forth in this Indenture. Any Restricted Security (or security issued in exchange or substitution therefor) as to which such restrictions on transfer shall have expired in accordance with their terms may, upon surrender of such Restricted Security for exchange to the Security Registrar in accordance with the provisions of Article Three of this Supplemental Indenture, be exchanged for a new Security or Securities, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, which shall not bear the Restricted Securities Legend. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing upon the occurrence of the Resale Restriction Termination Date and promptly after a registration statement with respect to the Notes, if any, has been declared effective under the Securities Act.

(ii) Notwithstanding any provision of this Section 3.03(k) to the contrary, in the event that Rule 144 as promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule) is amended to change the one-year holding period thereunder (or the corresponding period under any successor rule), (i) each reference in this Section 3.03(k) to “one year” shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be references to such changed period, and (ii) all corresponding references in the Notes (including the definition of Resale Restriction Termination Date) shall be deemed for all purposes hereof to be references to such changed period, provided that such changes shall not become effective if they are otherwise prohibited by, or would otherwise cause a violation of, the then-applicable federal securities laws. This Section 3.03(k)(ii) shall apply to successive amendments to Rule 144 (or any successor rule) changing the holding period thereunder.
