                       Capital One Financial Corporation

                            7 1/8 % Notes Due 2008

          This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of debt securities of
the Company, of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued
under an Indenture, dated as of November 1, 1996 (the "Senior Indenture"), and
duly executed and delivered by the Company to Harris Trust and Savings Bank, as
trustee (hereinafter, the "Trustee"), to which reference to the Senior Indenture
is hereby made for a description of the respective rights and duties thereunder
of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. This Security is
one of a series designated as the "7 1/8 % Notes due 2008" of the Company
(hereinafter called the "Notes"), issued under the Senior Indenture and limited
in aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000.

          Neither the Senior Indenture nor the Notes limit or otherwise restrict
the amount of indebtedness which may be incurred or other securities which may
be issued by the Company. The Notes issued under the Senior Indenture will be
direct, unsecured obligations of the Company and will mature on August 1, 2008.
The Notes rank on parity with all other unsecured, unsubordinated indebtedness
of the Company.

          The Notes will bear interest at the rate of 7 1/8 % per annum. The
Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company at
any time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal
amount of such Notes, and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent (as defined
below), the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of such payments of
interest accrued as of the date of redemption) discounted to the date of
redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve
30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis
points plus, in each case, accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.

          "Adjusted Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date,
the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the
Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable
Treasury Price for such redemption price.

          "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security
selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining
term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of
selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new
issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term
of such Notes.

          "Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any redemption
date, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such
redemption date, after excluding

 
                                                                               2

the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the
Trustee obtains fewer than three such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the
average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.

          "Quotation Agent" means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the
Company.

          "Reference Treasury Dealer" means (i) each of J.P. Morgan Securities
Inc., Chase Securities Inc., Donaldson, Lufkin & Jenrette Securities
Corporation, Lehman Brothers Inc. and their respective successors; provided,
however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S.
Government securities dealer in New York City (a "Primary Treasury Dealer"), the
Company shall substitute therefor another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii) any
other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

          "Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to each
Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by
the Company, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue
(expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in
writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

          The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund.

          In case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with
respect to the Notes, the principal hereof may be declared, and upon such
declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and
subject to the conditions provided in the Senior Indenture. The Senior Indenture
provides that in certain circumstances such declaration and its consequences may
be waived by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes then Outstanding. However, any such consent or waiver by the Holder shall
not affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

          The Senior Indenture permits the Company and the Trustee, without the
consent of the Holders of the Notes for certain situations and with the consent
of not less than two-thirds of the Holders in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Notes in other situations, to execute supplemental indentures adding
to, modifying or changing various provisions to the Senior Indenture; provided
that no such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holder of each
Outstanding Security affected thereby, shall (i) change the Stated Maturity of
the principal of, or any installment of interest on the Notes, or reduce the
principal amount thereof or the interest thereon, or change the place or
currency of payment of principal of, or interest on, the Notes, or impair the
right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment on or after the
Stated Maturity thereof, or change the Company's obligation to pay additional
amounts (except as otherwise contemplated in the Senior Indenture); (ii) reduce
the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, the consent of
whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of
whose Holders is required for any waiver (of compliance with certain provisions
of the Senior Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequence)
provided

 
                                                                               3

for in the Senior Indenture; or (iii) modify any of the provisions of Sections
902, 513 or 1008 of the Senior Indenture, except to increase any such percentage
or provide that certain other provisions of the Senior Indenture cannot be
modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding
Security affected thereby.

          The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any
term, provision or condition set forth in Section 1005, 1006 or 1007 of the
Senior Indenture, if before the time for such compliance, the Holders of at
least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes, by act of such
Holders, either shall waive such compliance in such instance or generally shall
have waived compliance with such term, provision or condition, but no such
waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the
extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the
obligations of the Company and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such
term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

          No reference herein to the Senior Indenture and no provision of this
Note or of the Senior Indenture shall alter or impair the obligations of the
Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest on this Note at the place, at the respective times, at the
rate and in the coin and currency herein prescribed.

          The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $1,000 and any multiple thereof.

          At the office or agency of the Company referred to on the face hereof
and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Senior
Indenture, the Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of
Notes of other authorized denominations.

          Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of the Notes at the
above-mentioned office or agency of the Company, a new Note or Notes of
authorized denominations, for a like aggregate principal amount, will be issued
to the transferee as provided in the Senior Indenture. No service charge shall
be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
relation thereto.

          Prior to due presentation of this Note for registration of transfer,
the Company, the Trustee, and any authorized agent of the Company or the
Trustee, may deem and treat the Holder hereof as the absolute owner of the Note
(whether or not this Note shall be overdue and made by anyone other than the
Company or the Trustee or any authorized agent of the Company or the Trustee),
for the purpose of receiving payment of, or on account of, the principal hereof
and, subject to the provisions on the face hereof, interest hereon and for all
other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any authorized agent
of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

          No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, or the
interest on,

 
                                                                               4

based on or in respect of the Senior Indenture or any indenture supplemental
thereto, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, as such,

directly or through the Company or 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.
