above, from and including the Interest Accrual Date specified above until the
principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment weekly, monthly,
quarterly, semiannually or annually in arrears as specified above as the
Interest Payment Period on each Interest Payment Date (as specified above),
commencing on the Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Interest Accrual
Date specified above, and at maturity (or on any redemption or repayment date);
provided, however, that if the Interest Accrual Date occurs between a Record
Date, as defined below, and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest
payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date succeeding the
Interest Accrual Date to the registered holder of this Note on the Record Date
with respect to such second Interest Payment Date; and provided, further, that
if this Note is subject to "Annual Interest Payments," interest payments shall
be made annually in arrears and the term "Interest Payment Date" shall be deemed
to mean the first day of March in each year.
Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the most recent date
to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has
been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Interest Accrual Date,
until but excluding the date the principal hereof has been paid or duly made
available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly
provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions
described herein, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the date 15
calendar days prior to such Interest Payment Date (whether or not a Business Day
(as defined below)) (each such date, a "Record Date"); provided, however, that
interest payable at maturity (or any redemption or repayment date) will be
payable to the person to whom the principal hereof shall be payable. As used
herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, (a) that
is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions are
authorized or required by law or regulation to close (x) in The City of New York
or (y) if this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S.
dollars, euro or Australian dollars, in the principal financial center of the
country of the Specified Currency, or (z) if this Note is denominated in
Australian dollars, in Sydney and (b) if this Note is denominated in euro, that
is also a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-time Gross Settlement
Express Transfer System ("TARGET") is operating (a "TARGET Settlement Day").
Payment of the principal of this Note, any premium and the interest due at
maturity (or any redemption or repayment date), unless this Note is denominated
in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and is to be paid in whole or in
part in such Specified Currency, will be made in immediately available funds
upon surrender of this Note at the office or agency of the Paying Agent, as
defined on the reverse hereof, maintained for that purpose in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other paying agency as the Issuer
may determine, in U.S. dollars. U.S. dollar payments of interest, other than
interest due at maturity or on any date of redemption or repayment, will be made
by U.S. dollar check mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
such address shall appear in the Note register. A holder of U.S. $10,000,000 (or
the equivalent in a Specified Currency) or more in aggregate principal amount
3
of Notes having the same Interest Payment Date, the interest on which is payable
in U.S. dollars, shall be entitled to receive payments of interest, other than
interest due at maturity or on any date of redemption or repayment, by wire
transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer
instructions have been received by the Paying Agent in writing not less than 15
calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.
If this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S.
dollars, and the holder does not elect (in whole or in part) to receive payment
in U.S. dollars pursuant to the next succeeding paragraph, payments of interest,
principal or any premium with regard to this Note will be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the holder hereof
with a bank located outside the United States if appropriate wire transfer
instructions have been received by the Paying Agent in writing [not less than 15
calendar days prior to the applicable payment date](7) [, with respect to
payments of interest, on or prior to the fifth Business Day after the applicable
Record Date and, with respect to payments of principal or any premium, at least
ten Business Days prior to the Maturity Date or any redemption or repayment
date, as the case may be](8); provided that, if payment of interest, principal
or any premium with regard to this Note is payable in euro, the account must be
a euro account in a country for which the euro is the lawful currency, provided,
further, that if such wire transfer instructions are not received, such payments
will be made by check payable in such Specified Currency mailed to the address
of the person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Note
register; and provided, further, that payment of the principal of this Note, any
premium and the interest due at maturity (or on any redemption or repayment
date) will be made upon surrender of this Note at the office or agency referred
to in the preceding paragraph.
If so indicated on the face hereof, the holder of this Note, if denominated
in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, may elect to receive all or a
portion of payments on this Note in U.S. dollars by transmitting a written
request to the Paying Agent, on or prior to the fifth Business Day after such
Record Date or at least ten Business Days prior to the Maturity Date or any
redemption or repayment date, as the case may be. Such election shall remain in
effect unless such request is revoked by written notice to the Paying Agent as
to all or a portion of payments on this Note at least five Business Days prior
to such Record Date, for payments of interest, or at least ten calendar days
prior to the Maturity Date or any redemption or repayment date, for payments of
principal, as the case may be.
If the holder elects to receive all or a portion of payments of principal
of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note, if denominated in a Specified
Currency other than U.S. dollars, in U.S. dollars, the Exchange Rate Agent (as
defined on the reverse hereof) will convert such

payments into U.S. dollars. In the event of such an election, payment in respect
of this Note will be based upon the exchange rate as determined by the Exchange
Rate Agent based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received
by such Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on
the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date from three
recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of which may be the Exchange Rate Agent
unless such Exchange Rate Agent is an affiliate of the Issuer) for the purchase
by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for U.S. dollars for settlement
on such payment date in the amount of the Specified Currency payable in the
absence of such an election to such holder and at which the applicable dealer
commits to execute a contract. If such bid quotations are not available, such
payment will be made in the Specified Currency. All currency exchange costs will
be borne by the holder of this Note by deductions from such payments.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set forth
on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the
same effect as if set forth at this place.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Note shall
not be entitled to any benefit under the Senior Indenture, as defined on the
reverse hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Senior Global Medium-Term
Notes, Series F, having maturities more than nine months from the date of issue
(the "Notes") of the Issuer. The Notes are issuable under a Senior Indenture,
dated as of November 1, 2004, between the Issuer and JPMorgan Chase Bank, as
Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the
Senior Indenture) (as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the
"Senior Indenture"), to which Senior Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights,
limitations of rights, duties and immunities of the Issuer, the Trustee and
holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. The Issuer has appointed JPMorgan Chase Bank at
its corporate trust office in The City of New York as the paying agent (the
"Paying Agent," which term includes any additional or successor Paying Agent
appointed by the Issuer) with respect to the Notes. The terms of individual
Notes may vary with respect to interest rates, interest rate formulas, issue
dates, maturity dates, or otherwise, all as provided in the Senior Indenture.
To the extent not inconsistent herewith, the terms of the Senior Indenture are
hereby incorporated by reference herein.
Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof, this Note will not be
subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise provided on the face hereof
in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs, will not be
redeemable or subject to repayment at the option of the holder prior to
maturity.
If so indicated on the face hereof, this Note may be redeemed in whole or
in part at the option of the Issuer on or after the Initial Redemption Date
specified on the face hereof on the terms set forth on the face hereof,
together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of redemption. If
this Note is subject to "Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction," the Initial
Redemption Percentage indicated on the face hereof will be reduced on each
anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage
Reduction specified on the face hereof until the redemption price of this Note
is 100% of the principal amount hereof, together with interest accrued and
unpaid hereon to the date of redemption. Notice of redemption shall be mailed
to the registered holders of the Notes designated for redemption at their
addresses as the same shall appear on the Note register not less than 30 nor
more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the
Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, subject to all the
conditions and provisions of the Senior Indenture. In the event of redemption
of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the amount of the unredeemed
portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the
cancellation hereof.
If so indicated on the face of this Note, this Note will be subject to
repayment at the option of the holder on the Optional Repayment Date or Dates
specified on the face hereof on the terms set forth herein. On any Optional
Repayment Date, this Note will be repayable in whole or
7
in part in increments of $1,000 or, if this Note is denominated in a Specified
Currency other than U.S. dollars, in increments of 1,000 units of such
Specified Currency (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall
not be less than the minimum authorized denomination hereof) at the option of
the holder hereof at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be
repaid, together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of
repayment, provided that if this Note is issued with original issue discount,
this Note will be repayable on the applicable Optional Repayment Date or Dates
at the price(s) specified on the face hereof. For this Note to be repaid at the
option of the holder hereof, the Paying Agent must receive at its corporate
trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, at least 15 but
not more than 30 calendar days prior to the date of repayment, (i) this Note
with the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" below duly completed or (ii)
a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a
national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers,
Inc. or a commercial bank or a trust company in the United States setting forth
the name of the holder of this Note, the principal amount hereof, the
certificate number of this Note or a description of this Note's tenor and
terms, the principal amount hereof to be repaid, a statement that the option to
elect repayment is being exercised thereby and a guarantee that this Note,
together with the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed,
will be received by the Paying Agent not later than the fifth Business Day
after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter;
provided, that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall
only be effective if this Note and form duly completed are received by the
Paying Agent by such fifth Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by
the holder hereof shall be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note
in part only, a new Note or Notes for the amount of the unpaid portion hereof
shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.
Interest payments on this Note will include interest accrued to but
excluding the Interest Payment Dates or the Maturity Date (or any earlier
redemption or repayment date), as the case may be. Unless otherwise provided on
the face hereof, interest payments for this Note will be computed and paid on
the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
In the case where the Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or any
redemption or repayment date) does not fall on a Business Day, payment of
interest, premium, if any, or principal otherwise payable on such date need not
be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with
the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or on the
Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date), and no interest on such
payment shall accrue for the period from and after the Interest Payment Date or
the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date) to such next succeeding
Business Day.
This Note and all the obligations of the Issuer hereunder are direct,
unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank without preference or priority
among themselves and pari passu with all other existing and future unsecured
and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Issuer, subject to certain statutory
exceptions in the event of liquidation upon insolvency.
8
This Note, and any Note or Notes issued upon transfer or exchange hereof,
is issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, and, if denominated
in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise stated above, is issuable only in
denominations of U.S. $1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess
thereof. If this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S.
dollars, then, unless a higher minimum denomination is required by applicable
law, it is issuable only in denominations of the equivalent of U.S. $1,000
(rounded to an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency), or
any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of 1,000 units of
such Specified Currency, as determined by reference to the noon dollar buying
rate in The City of New York for cable transfers of such Specified Currency
published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate")
on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of issuance.
The Trustee has been appointed registrar for the Notes, and the Trustee
will maintain at its office in The City of New York a register for the
registration and transfer of Notes. This Note may be transferred at the
aforesaid office of the Trustee by surrendering this Note for cancellation,
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Issuer and the Trustee and duly executed by the registered holder hereof in
person or by the holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
the Trustee shall issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, in
exchange herefor, a new Note or Notes having identical terms and provisions and
having a like aggregate principal amount in authorized denominations, subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein; provided, however, that the
Trustee will not be required (i) to register the transfer of or exchange any
Note that has been called for redemption in whole or in part, except the
unredeemed portion of Notes being redeemed in part, (ii) to register the
transfer of or exchange any Note if the holder thereof has exercised his right,
if any, to require the Issuer to repurchase such Note in whole or in part,
except the portion of such Note not required to be repurchased, or (iii) to
register the transfer of or exchange Notes to the extent and during the period
so provided in the Senior Indenture with respect to the redemption of Notes.
Notes are exchangeable at said office for other Notes of other authorized
denominations of equal aggregate principal amount having identical terms and
provisions. All such exchanges and transfers of Notes will be free of charge,
but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge in connection therewith. All Notes surrendered for
exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Issuer and the Trustee and executed by the registered
holder in person or by the holder's attorney duly authorized in writing. The
date of registration of any Note delivered upon any exchange or transfer of
Notes shall be such that no gain or loss of interest results from such exchange
or transfer.
In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated, defaced or be
destroyed, lost or stolen and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft or
destruction thereof (together with the indemnity hereinafter referred to and
such other documents or proof as may be required in the premises) shall be
delivered to the Trustee, the Issuer in its discretion may execute a new Note
of like tenor in exchange for this Note, but, if this Note is destroyed, lost
or stolen, only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and the
Issuer that this Note was destroyed or lost
9
or stolen and, if required, upon receipt also of indemnity satisfactory to each
of them. All expenses and reasonable charges associated with procuring such
indemnity and with the preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Note
shall be borne by the owner of the Note mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or
stolen.
The Senior Indenture provides that (a) if an Event of Default (as defined
in the Senior Indenture) due to the default in payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on, any series of debt securities issued under the
Senior Indenture, including the series of Senior Medium-Term Notes of which
this Note forms a part, or due to the default in the performance or breach of
any other covenant or warranty of the Issuer applicable to the debt securities
of such series but not applicable to all outstanding debt securities issued
under the Senior Indenture shall have occurred and be continuing, either the
Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of
the outstanding debt securities of each affected series, voting as one class,
by notice in writing to the Issuer and to the Trustee, if given by the
securityholders, may then declare the principal of all debt securities of all
such series and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately and
(b) if an Event of Default due to a default in the performance of any other of
the covenants or agreements in the Senior Indenture applicable to all
outstanding debt securities issued thereunder, including this Note, or due to
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the Issuer, shall
have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less
than 25% in aggregate principal amount of all outstanding debt securities
issued under the Senior Indenture, voting as one class, by notice in writing to
the Issuer and to the Trustee, if given by the securityholders, may declare the
principal of all such debt securities and interest accrued thereon to be due
and payable immediately, but upon certain conditions such declarations may be
annulled and past defaults may be waived (except a continuing default in
payment of principal or premium, if any, or interest on such debt securities)
by the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the debt
securities of all affected series then outstanding.
If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to "Modified
Payment upon Acceleration or Redemption," then (i) if the principal hereof is
declared to be due and payable as described in the preceding paragraph, the
amount of principal due and payable with respect to this Note shall be limited
to the aggregate principal amount hereof multiplied by the sum of the Issue
Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate
principal amount) plus the original issue discount amortized from the Interest
Accrual Date to the date of declaration, which amortization shall be calculated
using the "interest method" (computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in effect on the date of declaration), (ii) for the
purpose of any vote of securityholders taken pursuant to the Senior Indenture
prior to the acceleration of payment of this Note, the principal amount hereof
shall equal the amount that would be due and payable hereon, calculated as set
forth in clause (i) above, if this Note were declared to be due and payable on
the date of any such vote and (iii) for the purpose of any vote of
securityholders taken pursuant to the Senior Indenture following the
acceleration of payment of this Note, the principal amount hereof shall equal
the amount of principal due and payable with respect to this Note, calculated
as set forth in clause (i) above.
10
If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to "Tax Redemption
and Payment of Additional Amounts," this Note may be redeemed, as a whole, at
the option of the Issuer at any time prior to maturity, upon the giving of a
notice of redemption as described below, at a redemption price equal to 100% of
the principal amount hereof, together with accrued interest to the date fixed
for redemption (except that if this Note is subject to "Modified Payment upon
Acceleration or Redemption," such redemption price would be limited to the
aggregate principal amount hereof multiplied by the sum of the Issue Price
specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate
principal amount) plus the original issue discount amortized from the Interest
Accrual Date to the date of redemption, which amortization shall be calculated
using the "interest method" (computed in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles in effect on the date of redemption) (the "Amortized
Amount")), if the Issuer determines that, as a result of any change in or
amendment to the laws, or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, of
the United States or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof
or therein affecting taxation, or any change in official position regarding the
application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which
change or amendment becomes effective on or after the Initial Offering Date
hereof, the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts, as
defined below, with respect to this Note as described below. Prior to the
giving of any notice of redemption pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall
deliver to the Trustee (i) a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to
effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the
conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to so redeem have occurred, and
(ii) an opinion of independent legal counsel satisfactory to the Trustee to
such effect based on such statement of facts; provided that no such notice of
redemption shall be given earlier than 60 calendar days prior to the earliest
date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a
payment in respect of this Note were then due.
Notice of redemption will be given not less than 30 nor more than 60
calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the Redemption
Notice Period specified on the face hereof, which date and the applicable
redemption price will be specified in the notice.
If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to "Tax Redemption
and Payment of Additional Amounts," the Issuer will, subject to certain
exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay such additional amounts (the
"Additional Amounts") to the holder of this Note who is a United States Alien
as may be necessary in order that every net payment of the principal of and
interest on this Note and any other amounts payable on this Note, after
withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax,
assessment or governmental charge imposed upon or as a result of such payment
by the United States, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof
or therein, will not be less than the amount provided for in this Note to be
then due and payable. The Issuer will not, however, make any payment of
Additional Amounts to any such holder who is a United States Alien for or on
account of:
11
(a) any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge
that would not have been so imposed but for (i) the existence of any present or
former connection between such holder, or between a fiduciary, settlor,
beneficiary, member or shareholder of such holder, if such holder is an estate,
a trust, a partnership or a corporation for United States federal income tax
purposes, and the United States, including, without limitation, such holder, or
such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder, being or having
been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been engaged in a trade
or business or present therein or having, or having had, a permanent
establishment therein or (ii) the presentation by or on behalf of the holder of
this Note for payment on a date more than 15 calendar days after the date on
which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof
is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;
(b) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise or personal
property tax or any similar tax, assessment or governmental charge;
(c) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by reason of
such holder's past or present status as a personal holding company or foreign
personal holding company or controlled foreign corporation or passive foreign
investment company with respect to the United States or as a corporation which
accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax or as a private
foundation or other tax-exempt organization or a bank receiving interest under
Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended;
(d) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable
otherwise than by withholding or deduction from payments on or in respect of
this Note;
(e) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be
withheld by any Paying Agent from any payment of principal of, or interest on,
this Note, if such payment can be made without such withholding by any other
Paying Agent in a city in Western Europe;
(f) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have
been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification, information or
other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence or identity
of the holder or beneficial owner of this Note, if such compliance is required
by statute or by regulation of the United States or of any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a precondition to relief
or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge;
(g) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by reason of
such holder's past or present status as the actual or constructive owner of 10%
or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to
vote of the Issuer or as a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Issuer; or
(h) any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g).
In addition, the Issuer shall not be required to make any payment of Additional
Amounts (i) to any such holder where such withholding or deduction is imposed
on a payment to an individual
12
and is required to be made pursuant to any law implementing or complying with,
or introduced in order to conform to, any European Union Directive on the
taxation of savings; or (ii) by or on behalf of a holder who would have been
able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting this Note or the
relevant coupon to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European
Union. Nor shall the Issuer pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment
on this Note to a United States Alien who is a fiduciary or partnership or
other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment
would be required by the laws of the United States (or any political
subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a
beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such
partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the
Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner
been the holder of this Note.
The Senior Indenture permits the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent
of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
debt securities of all series issued under the Senior Indenture then
outstanding and affected (voting as one class), to execute supplemental
indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner the rights of the
holders of each series so affected; provided that the Issuer and the Trustee
may not, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt security
affected thereby, (a) extend the final maturity of any such debt security, or
reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of
payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption
thereof, or change the currency of payment thereof, or modify or amend the
provisions for conversion of any currency into any other currency, or modify or
amend the provisions for conversion or exchange of the debt security for
securities of the Issuer or other entities or for other property or the cash
value of the property (other than as provided in the antidilution provisions or
other similar adjustment provisions of the debt securities or otherwise in
accordance with the terms thereof), or impair or affect the rights of any
holder to institute suit for the payment thereof or (b) reduce the aforesaid
percentage in principal amount of debt securities the consent of the holders of
which is required for any such supplemental indenture.
Except as set forth below, if the principal of, premium, if any, or
interest on this Note is payable in a Specified Currency other than U.S.
dollars and such Specified Currency is not available to the Issuer for making
payments hereon due to the imposition of exchange controls or other
circumstances beyond the control of the Issuer or is no longer used by the
government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of
transactions by public institutions within the international banking community,
then the Issuer will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of
this Note by making such payments in U.S. dollars on the basis of the Market
Exchange Rate on the date of such payment or, if the Market Exchange Rate is
not available on such date, as of the most recent practicable date; provided,
however, that if the euro has been substituted for such Specified Currency, the
Issuer may at its option (or shall, if so required by applicable law) without
the consent of the holder of this Note effect the payment of principal of,
premium, if any, or interest on any Note denominated in such Specified Currency
in euro in lieu of such Specified Currency in conformity with legally
applicable measures taken pursuant to, or by virtue of, the Treaty establishing
the European Community, as amended. Any payment made under such circumstances
in U.S. dollars or euro where the required payment is in an unavailable
Specified Currency will not constitute an Event of Default. If such Market
13
Exchange Rate is not then available to the Issuer or is not published for a
particular Specified Currency, the Market Exchange Rate will be based on the
highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate
Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business
Day preceding the date of such payment from three recognized foreign exchange
dealers (the "Exchange Dealers") for the purchase by the quoting Exchange
Dealer of the Specified Currency for U.S. dollars for settlement on the payment
date, in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to those
holders or beneficial owners of Notes and at which the applicable Exchange
Dealer commits to execute a contract. One of the Exchange Dealers providing
quotations may be the Exchange Rate Agent unless the Exchange Rate Agent is an
affiliate of the Issuer. If those bid quotations are not available, the
Exchange Rate Agent shall determine the market exchange rate at its sole
discretion.
The "Exchange Rate Agent" shall be Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated,
unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof.
All determinations referred to above made by, or on behalf of, the Issuer
or by, or on behalf of, the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at such entity's sole
discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all
purposes and binding on holders of Notes and coupons.
So long as this Note shall be outstanding, the Issuer will cause to be
maintained an office or agency for the payment of the principal of and premium,
if any, and interest on this Note as herein provided in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York, and an office or agency in said Borough of
Manhattan for the registration, transfer and exchange as aforesaid of the
Notes. The Issuer may designate other agencies for the payment of said
principal, premium and interest at such place or places (subject to applicable
laws and regulations) as the Issuer may decide. So long as there shall be such
an agency, the Issuer shall keep the Trustee advised of the names and locations
of such agencies, if any are so designated. If any European Union Directive on
the taxation of savings comes into force, the Issuer will, to the extent
possible as a matter of law, maintain a Paying Agent in a member state of the
European Union that will not be obligated to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to
any such Directive or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in
order to conform to, such Directive.
With respect to moneys paid by the Issuer and held by the Trustee or
any Paying Agent for payment of the principal of or interest or premium, if any,
on any Notes that remain unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal,
interest or premium shall have become due and payable (whether at maturity or
upon call for redemption or otherwise), (i) the Trustee or such Paying Agent
shall notify the holders of such Notes that such moneys shall be repaid to the
Issuer and any person claiming such moneys shall thereafter look only to the
Issuer for payment thereof and (ii) such moneys shall be so repaid to the
Issuer. Upon such repayment all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent
with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease, without, however, limiting in
any way any obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of or
interest or premium, if any, on this Note as the same shall become due.
14
No provision of this Note or of the Senior Indenture shall alter or impair
the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the
principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the time, place,
and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed unless otherwise
agreed between the Issuer and the registered holder of this Note.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the
Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the
holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the
Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, or the interest on this Note, for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in
respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Senior Indenture or any
indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer
or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any
successor corporation, either directly or through the Issuer 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.
This Note shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
As used herein, the term "United States Alien" means any person who is,
for United States federal income tax purposes, (i) a nonresident alien
