No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, but the Company may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.

(a) The Notes will bear interest initially at the rate of 6.60% per year (the "COUPON RATE") from the original date of issuance through and including the earlier of (i) the Maturity Date and (ii) the day immediately preceding any Reset Effective Date. In the event of a Successful Remarketing of the Notes, the Coupon Rate may be reset by the Remarketing Agent at the appropriate Reset Rate with effect from the related Reset Effective Date, as set forth in Section 8.03. If the Coupon Rate is so reset, the Notes will bear interest at the Reset Rate from the related Reset Effective Date until the principal thereof and interest thereon is paid or duly made available for payment 7 and shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, compounded quarterly, on any overdue principal and payment of interest at the Coupon Rate through and including the day immediately preceding the Reset Effective Date and at the Reset Rate thereafter. (b) Subject to Section 2.06, interest on the Notes shall be payable quarterly in arrears on February 16, May 16, August 16 and November 16 of each year (each, an "INTEREST PAYMENT Date"), commencing February 16, 2003, to the Person in whose name such Note, or any predecessor Note, is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. Interest on the Notes shall accrue from December 20, 2002. (c) The amount of interest payable for any full quarterly period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable for any period shorter than a full quarterly period for which interest is computed will be computed on the basis of a 30-day month and, for any period less than a month, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed per 30-day month. In the event that any scheduled Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such Interest Payment Date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next calendar year, then such payment will be made on the preceding Business Day. Section 2.06. Extension Of Interest Payment Period. (a) The Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period of the Notes to any subsequent Interest Payment Date, but not beyond November 16, 2005 (an "EXTENSION PERIOD"). Prior to the expiration of any Extension Period, the Company may further extend such Extension Period to any subsequent Interest Payment Date, but not beyond November 16, 2005. During any Extension Period, including as the same may be extended as provided in the preceding sentence, no interest shall be due and payable. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest, the payment of which has been deferred because of the extension of the interest payment period pursuant to this Section 2.06, will accrue additional interest at the rate of 7.25% per annum to but excluding the date of payment, compounded quarterly for each quarter of such Extension Period ("COMPOUNDED INTEREST"). At the end of each Extension Period, including as the same may be extended as provided above, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on the Notes and Compounded Interest (together, "DEFERRED INTEREST") that shall be payable to the Person in whose name such Note, or any predecessor Note, is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for 8 such Interest Payment Date. Upon termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all Deferred Interest then due, the Company may commence a new Extension Period, provided that such Extension Period, together with all extensions thereof, may not extend beyond November 16, 2005. No interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period except at the end thereof, except that prior to the end of such Extension Period, the Company, at its option, may prepay on any Interest Payment Date all or any portion of the Deferred Interest accrued during the then elapsed portion of such Extension Period. (b) The Company shall give written notice to the Trustee (and the Trustee shall give notice thereof to Holders of Notes) of its election to extend any interest payment period, the expected length of any such Extension Period and any extension of any Extension Period, at least five Business Days before the earlier of (i) the Record Date for the Interest Payment Date on which interest would have been payable except for the election to begin or extend the Extension Period, or (ii) the date the Trustee is required to give notice to any securities exchange or to Holders of Notes of such Record Date or such Interest Payment Date.

(a) In connection with each Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent shall determine the Reset Rate (rounded to the nearest one-thousandth (0.001) of one percent per annum) that the Remarketed Notes should bear in order to have an aggregate market value equal to the Remarketing Price or the Final Remarketing Price, as the case may be, and that in the sole reasonable discretion of the Remarketing Agent will enable it to remarket all of the Remarketed Notes at the Remarketing Price or Final Remarketing Price, as the case may be, in such Remarketing. (b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Reset Rate shall in no event (i) be less than the Coupon Rate or (ii) exceed the maximum rate permitted by applicable law and the Remarketing Agent shall have no obligation to determine whether there is any limitation under applicable law on the Reset Rate or, if there is any such limitation, the maximum permissible Reset Rate on the Notes and shall rely solely upon written notice from the Company (which the Company agrees to provide prior to the eighth Business Day before the Initial Remarketing Date) as to whether or not there is any such limitation and, if so, the maximum permissible Reset Rate. (c) In the event of a Failed Remarketing or if no Notes are included in Corporate Units and none of the holders of the Separate Notes elect to have their Notes remarketed in any Remarketing, the applicable interest rate on the Notes will not be reset and will continue to be the Coupon Rate. (d) In the event of a Successful Remarketing, the Coupon Rate shall be reset at the Reset Rate as determined by the Remarketing Agent under the 15 Remarketing Agreement. The Company shall cause a notice of the Reset Rate to be published in a daily newspaper in the English language of general circulation in The City of New York, which is expected to be The Wall Street Journal. Section 8.04. Failed Remarketing. (a) If, by 4:00 p.m. (New York City time) on any Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket all of the Remarketed Notes at the Remarketing Price or the Final Remarketing Price, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Remarketing Agreement, a Failed Remarketing shall be deemed to have occurred, and the Remarketing Agent shall advise, by telephone, the Depositary, the Purchase Contract Agent and the Company, and return the Remarketed Notes to the Collateral Agent or the Custodial Agent, as the case may be. (b) The Company shall cause a notice of such Failed Remarketing to be published in a daily newspaper in the English language of general circulation in The City of New York, which is expected to be The Wall Street Journal. Section 8.05. Put Right. If there has not been a Successful Remarketing prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Holders of Separate Notes will have the right (the "PUT RIGHT") to require the Company to purchase their Notes on April 1, 2006 (the "EXERCISE DATE") upon a notice to the Trustee on or prior to the fifth Business Day prior to the Exercise Date, at a price per Note equal to $25.00 plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Exercise Date (the "PUT PRICE"). If there has not been a Successful Remarketing prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Company shall notify, not more than ten (10) days after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Beneficial Owners of the Separate Notes of the procedures to be followed if any Holder elects to exercise its Put Right. Section 8.06. Additional Event of Default. In addition to the events listed as Events of Default in Section 501 of the Base Indenture, it shall be an additional Event of Default with respect to the Notes, if the Company defaults in the payment of the Put Price with respect to any Separate Note following the exercise of the Put Right by any Holder in accordance with Section 8.05. ARTICLE 9 TAX TREATMENT Section 9.01. Tax Treatment. The Company agrees, and by acceptance of the Notes, each holder of Notes will be deemed to have agreed (1) for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes to treat the acquisition of a Corporate Unit as the acquisition of the Note and the Purchase 16 Contract constituting the Corporate Units and (2) to treat the Notes as indebtedness for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes.

Dated: _____________ SUNTRUST BANK, as Trustee By: ____________________ Authorized Signatory FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the "NOTES"), issued and to be issued in one or more series under a Subordinated Indenture (the "BASE INDENTURE"), dated as of December 20, 2002, between the Company and SunTrust Bank, as Trustee (herein called the "TRUSTEE", which term includes any successor trustee), as amended and supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1, dated as of December 20, 2002, between the Company and the Trustee (the "SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE NO. 1" and together with the Base Indenture, the "INDENTURE"), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $150,000,000 (or up to $172,500,000 to the extent that the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised). All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Indenture. Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.06 of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, the Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time, so long as no Event of Default with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period of the Notes to any subsequent Interest Payment Date, but not beyond November 16, 2005 (an "EXTENSION PERIOD"). Prior to the expiration of any Extension Period, the Company may further extend such Extension Period to any subsequent Interest Payment Date, but not beyond November 16, 2005. During any Extension Period, including as the same may be extended as provided in the preceding sentence, no interest shall be due and payable. To the extent permitted by applicable law, interest, the payment of which has been deferred because of the extension of the interest payment period pursuant to Section 2.06 of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, will accrue additional interest at the rate of 7.25% per annum to but excluding the date of payment, compounded quarterly for each quarter of such Extension Period ("COMPOUNDED INTEREST"). At the end of each Extension Period, including as the same may be extended as provided above, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on the Notes and Compounded Interest (together, "DEFERRED INTEREST") that shall be payable to the Person in whose name such Note, or any predecessor Note, is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Interest Payment Date. The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is initially, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment R-1 in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Note is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Note by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Indenture, from and after November 16, 2005, unless an Event of Default set forth in Sections 501(4) or (5) of the Base Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing (without regard, in the case of Section 501(4) to the period of continuance referred to therein), (i) the subordination provisions set forth in Article Twelve of the Base Indenture shall no longer apply to this Note, (ii) the indebtedness represented by this Note shall rank equally in right of payment to all of the then-existing and future unsubordinated Indebtedness of the Company and (iii) the indebtedness represented by this Note shall be considered Senior Indebtedness pursuant to the definition thereof in the Base Indenture and for the purposes of the application of Article Twelve of the Base Indenture to any Securities other than the Notes issued pursuant to the Base Indenture. If a Special Event shall occur and be continuing, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes of this series in whole, but not in part, on any Interest Payment Date prior to the earlier of the date of a Successful Remarketing or the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, at a price per Note equal to the Redemption Price as set forth in the Indenture. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence and in Section 3.01 of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, the Company may not redeem the Notes at its option prior to the Maturity Date. Pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, if there has not been a Successful Remarketing prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Holders of Separate Notes will have the right to require the Company to purchase their Notes on April 1, 2006 (the "EXERCISE DATE") upon a notice to the Trustee on or prior to the fifth Business Day prior to the Exercise Date, at a price per Note equal to $25.00 plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Exercise Date. The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund and will not be subject to defeasance or covenant defeasance. R-2 If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes, 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 interest, subject to the interest period extension provisions of the Indenture, on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $25 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. R-3 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 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. The Company agrees, and by acceptance of the Notes, each Holder of Notes will be deemed to have agreed (1) for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes to treat the acquisition of a Corporate Unit as the acquisition of the Note and the Purchase Contract constituting the Corporate Unit and (2) to treat the Notes as indebtedness for United States federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes. A Holder of Notes may obtain the amount of original issue discount, issue date, yield to maturity, comparable yield and projected payment schedule for the Notes, determined by the Company pursuant to Treas.
