"Company," which terms include 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

DOLLARS, or if this is a Principal Indexed Note, the principal amount as
determined in accordance with the terms set forth under "Other Provisions" above
and/or in the Addendum attached hereto, on the Stated Maturity Date specified
above (except to the extent



                                        2



redeemed or repaid prior to the Stated Maturity Date), and to pay interest on
the principal or face amount as set forth above at the Interest Rate per annum
specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for
payment.  Reference herein to "this Note", "hereof", "herein" and comparable
terms shall include an Addendum hereto if an Addendum is specified above.

     The Company will pay interest on each Interest Payment Date specified
above, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the
Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Stated Maturity Date or any
Redemption Date or Optional Repayment Date (if specified as repayable at the
option of the Holder in an attached Addendum) (the date of each such Stated
Maturity Date, Redemption Date and Optional Repayment Date and the date on which
principal or an installment of principal is due and payable by declaration of
acceleration pursuant to the Indenture being referred to hereinafter as a
"Maturity" with respect to principal payable on such date); PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that if the Original Issue Date is between a Regular Record Date (as defined
below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments will
commence on the second Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date.
Except as provided above, interest payments will be made on the Interest Payment
Dates shown above.  Unless otherwise specified above, the "Regular Record Date"
shall be the date 15 calendar days (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the
applicable Interest Payment Date.  Interest on this Note will accrue from and
including the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid
or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from the Original Issue
Date specified above, to, but excluding such Interest Payment Date.  If the
Maturity or an Interest Payment Date falls on a day which is not a Business Day

be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if
made on such Maturity or Interest Payment Date, as the case may be, and no
interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after
such Maturity or Interest Payment Date.  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 Note (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular
Record Date for such Interest Payment Date.  Any such interest which is payable,
but not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date
(herein called "Defaulted Interest"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the
registered Holder on such Regular Record Date, and may 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 the Holder
of this Note not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be
paid at any time in


                                        3



any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

     Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the
Office or Agency of the Company maintained by the Company for such purpose, in
such coin or 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, that
at the option of the Company, payment of interest may be made by check mailed to
the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the
Security Register; and PROVIDED, FURTHER, that AT THE OPTION OF THE COMPANY, the
Holder of this Note may be entitled to receive payments of principal of and
interest on this Note by wire transfer of immediately available funds if
appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received by the Trustee not
less than 15 days prior to the applicable payment date.

behalf of Bankers Trust Company, the Trustee for this Note under the Indenture,
or its successor thereunder, by the manual signature of one of its authorized
officers, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or
be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

subject to repayment at the option of the Holder.  If this Note shall be
repayable at the option of the Holder as specified in an attached Addendum
hereto, unless otherwise specified in such Addendum, on any Optional Repayment
Date, this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part in increments of $1,000
(provided that any remaining principal hereof shall be at least $1,000) 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.  If specified as repayable at the option of the Holder in such
Addendum, for this Note to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the

which interest has been paid or duly provided for, to, but excluding, the
related Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be.  Interest
payments for this Note shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year

Sunday or any other day on which banks in The City of New York are generally
authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the
Indenture, for purposes of determining the rights of a Holder of a Note for
which the principal thereof is determined by reference to the price or prices of
specified commodities or stocks, interest rate indices, interest or exchange
rate swap indices, the exchange rate of one or more specified currencies
(including a composite currency such as the European Currency Unit) relative to
an indexed currency or such other price, exchange rate or other financial index
or indices as specified above (a "Principal Indexed Note"), in respect of voting
for or against amendments to the Indenture and modifications and the waiver of
rights thereunder, the principal amount of any such Principal Indexed Note shall
be deemed to be equal to the face amount thereof upon issuance.  The method for
determining the amount of principal payable at Maturity on a Principal Indexed
Note will be specified in an attached Addendum.

     Any provision contained herein with respect to the calculation of the rate
of interest applicable to this Note, its payment dates or any other matter
relating hereto may be modified as specified in an Addendum relating hereto if
so specified above, and references herein to "as specified above" or similar
language of like import shall also be references to any such Addendum.

     If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in
the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the


                                        6



Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected thereby at any time by
the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of 66 2/3% in

specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the  Securities of each
series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the 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 interest on this Note at
the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New

one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof.  As provided in the
Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Notes are
exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes as requested by the
Holder surrendering the same.

     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.

     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


                                        7



this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent
shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

     The Indenture and the Notes shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York.
