$250,000,000
Maytag Corporation, a corporation duly organized and existing under the
laws of the State of Delaware (herein called "Maytag", which term includes any
successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value
received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the
principal sum of Two Hundred Fifty Million Dollars ($250,000,000) on August 1,
2031, and to pay interest on said principal sum from August 8, 2001 or from the
most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for, quarterly in arrears on February 1, May 1, August 1 and November 1
in each year, commencing November 1, 2001 (each, an "Interest Payment Date") and
at Maturity, at the interest rate of 7.875% per annum, until the principal
hereof is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and
punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as
provided in such Indenture, 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
Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the close of business on
the 15th day of the month preceding the Interest Payment Date (each, a "Regular
Record Date"), next preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest not
so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to
the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in
whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor notes) 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 Holders of
Notes not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any
time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as
may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.
Any money that Maytag deposits with the Trustee or any Paying Agent for the
payment of principal or any interest on this Note that remains unclaimed for two
years after the date upon which the principal and interest are due and payable,
will be repaid to Maytag upon Maytag's request unless otherwise required by
mandatory provisions of any applicable unclaimed property law. After that time,
unless otherwise required by mandatory
provisions of any unclaimed property law, the Holder of this Note will be able
to seek any payment to which such Holder may be entitled to collect only from
Maytag.
If the Notes are issued in definitive form, payment of the principal and
interest on this Note due at Maturity or upon redemption will be made at
Maturity or upon redemption, as the case may be, upon presentation of this Note,
in immediately available funds, at the office of Bank One, National Association,
the Paying Agent and Registrar for the Notes, maintained for such purposes in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York.
Payment of interest on this Note due on an Interest Payment Date, other
than interest at Maturity or upon redemption, may be paid by check mailed to the
address of the Holder entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Note
register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Depositary, as Holder of the
Notes, is entitled to require the Paying Agent to make payments of interest,
other than interest due at Maturity or upon redemption, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds into an account maintained by the Holder in the
United States, by sending appropriate wire transfer instructions as long as the
Paying Agent receives the instructions not less than ten days prior to the
applicable Interest Payment Date.
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 Indenture or be valid or obligatory for
any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, MAYTAG CORPORATION has caused this instrument to be

Indenture, dated as of June 15, 1987, between Maytag and Bank One, National
Association, formerly known as The First National Bank of Chicago, as trustee
(the "Trustee," which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture),
to which indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto (collectively, the
"Indenture") reference is hereby made for a description of the rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee, Maytag and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the
Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The Notes will be issued
in fully registered form only and in denominations of $25 and integral multiples

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of Maytag
and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by
Maytag 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 to waive compliance by Maytag 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 Maytag, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the
times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
Registrar and Paying Agent
Maytag shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, an
office or agency where Notes may be surrendered for registration of transfer or

any time, on or after August 8, 2006, on at least 30 days', but not more than 60
days', prior notice mailed to the registered address of each Holder of the
Notes. The redemption prices will be equal to 100% of the principal amount of
the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption
date. Maytag may at any time repurchase the Notes at any price in the open
market and may hold, resell or surrender such Notes to the Trustee for
cancellation.
