          Determination of LIBOR.  Unless otherwise specified on the face
          ----------------------
hereof, if the Interest Rate Basis on this Note is LIBOR, the interest rate
payable with respect to this Note shall be determined in accordance with the
following provisions:

     (i)  With respect to any LIBOR Interest Determination Date (as defined
below), LIBOR will be either:  (a) if "LIBOR Reuters" is specified on the face
hereof, the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundred-
thousandth of a percentage point, with five-millionths of a percentage point
rounded upwards) of the offered rates (unless the specified Designated LIBOR
Page by its terms provides only for a single rate, in which case such single
rate shall be used) for deposits in the LIBOR Currency having the Index Maturity
specified on the face hereof commencing on the second London Business Day
immediately following such LIBOR Interest Determination Date, that appear on the
Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Interest
Determination Date, if at least two such offered rates appear (unless, as
aforesaid, only a single rate is required) on such Designated LIBOR Page, or (b)
if "LIBOR Telerate" is specified on the face hereof, the rate for deposits in
the LIBOR Currency having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof,
commencing on the second

                                       9
<PAGE>

London Business Day immediately following such LIBOR Interest Determination
Date, that appears on such Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time,
on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date, adjusted in each case by the addition
or subtraction of the Spread, if any, specified on the face hereof, and/or by
multiplication by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof.
"LIBOR Currency" means the currency (including composite currencies) specified
on the face hereof as the currency for which LIBOR shall be calculated. If no
such currency is specified on the face hereof, the LIBOR Currency shall be U.S.
dollars. "Designated LIBOR Page" means either if "LIBOR Reuters" is specified on
the face hereof, the display on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or any
successor service) for the purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of
major banks for the applicable LIBOR Currency, or if "LIBOR Telerate" is
specified on the face hereof, the display on Bridge Telerate, Inc. (or any
successor service) for the purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of
major banks for the applicable LIBOR Currency (if the U.S. dollar is the LIBOR
Currency, LIBOR will be determined as if Page 3750 had been specified). "Page
3750" means the display designated as page "3750" on Bridge Telerate, Inc. (or
such other page as may replace the 3750 page on that service or such other
service or services as may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for
the purposes of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar
deposits). If neither LIBOR Reuters nor LIBOR Telerate is specified on the face
hereof, LIBOR for the applicable LIBOR Currency will be determined as if LIBOR
Telerate had been specified. In the case where (a) above applies, if fewer than
two offered rates appear on the Designated LIBOR Page, or in the case where (b)
above applies, if no rate appears on the Designated LIBOR Page, as applicable,
LIBOR in respect of such LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be determined as
if the parties had specified the rate described in (ii) below.

     (ii) With respect to a LIBOR Interest Determination Date on which fewer
than two offered rates appear (if "LIBOR Reuters" is specified on the face
hereof) or no rate appears (if "LIBOR Telerate" is specified on the face
hereof), the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR in respect of such LIBOR
Interest Determination Date as follows: the Calculation Agent will request the
principal London offices of each of four major reference banks in the London
interbank market, as selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide the
Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for deposits in the LIBOR Currency
for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, commencing on
the second London Business Day immediately following such LIBOR Interest
Determination Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date
and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 (or the equivalent in the
LIBOR Currency, if the LIBOR Currency is not the U.S. dollar) that is
representative of a single transaction in such LIBOR Currency in such market at
such time, adjusted by the addition or subtraction of the Spread, if any,
specified on the face hereof, and/or by multiplication by the Spread Multiplier,
if any, specified on the face hereof and (a) if at least two such quotations are
provided, LIBOR determined on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the
arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundred-thousandth of
a percentage point, with five-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards)
of such quotations, or (b) if fewer than two quotations are provided, LIBOR
determined on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean
(rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundred-thousandth of a percentage
point, with five-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards) of the rates
quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m. (or such other time specified on the face
hereof), in the applicable principal financial center for the country of the
LIBOR Currency on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date, by

                                       10
<PAGE>

three major banks in such principal financial center selected by the Calculation
Agent for loans in the LIBOR Currency to leading European banks, having the
Index Maturity specified on the face hereof and in a principal amount of not
less than $1,000,000 (or the equivalent in the LIBOR Currency, if the LIBOR
Currency is not the U.S. dollar) commencing on the second London Business Day
immediately following such LIBOR Interest Determination Date that is
representative for a single transaction in such LIBOR Currency in such market at
such time, in either case adjusted by the addition or subtraction of the Spread,
if any, specified on the face hereof, and/or by multiplication by the Spread
Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof; provided, however, that if the
                                                  -------- --------
banks selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as
mentioned in this sentence, LIBOR will remain the LIBOR then in effect on such
LIBOR Interest Determination Date.

          Determination of Treasury Rate.  Unless otherwise specified on the
          ------------------------------
face hereof, if the Interest Rate Basis on this Note is the Treasury Rate, the
interest rate payable with respect to this Note shall equal:

          (i)   the rate for the auction held on the related Treasury Interest
Determination Date of direct obligations of the United States ("Treasury bills")
having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof under the caption
"INVESTMENT RATE" on the display on Bridge Telerate, Inc. (or any successor
service) on page 56 (of any other page as may replace that page on that service)
("Telerate Page 56") or page 57 (or any other page as may replace that page on
that service) ("Telerate Page 57"); or

          (ii)  if the rate referred to in clause (i) is not so published by
3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date pertaining to
such Treasury Interest Determination Date, the rate (expressed as a Bond
Equivalent Yield, rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundred-thousandth
of a percentage point, with five-millionths of a percentage point rounded
upwards, on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied
on a daily basis) on such Treasury Interest Determination Date of Treasury bills
having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as published in H.15
Daily Update under the caption "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury
Bills/Auction High" or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose
of displaying the applicable rate; or

          (iii) if the rate referred to in clause (ii) is not so published by
3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date pertaining to
such Treasury Interest Determination Date, the Treasury Rate will be the auction
average rate on such Treasury Interest Determination Date (expressed as a Bond
Equivalent Yield (as defined below), rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-
hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five-millionths of a percentage
point rounded upwards, on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days as applicable,
and applied on a daily basis) as otherwise announced by the United States
Department of the Treasury; or

          (iv)  if the rate referred to in clause (iii) is not so announced by
the United States Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held,
then the Treasury Rate will be the rate (expressed as a Bond Equivalent Yield,
rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundred-thousandth of a percentage
point, with five-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards on the basis
of a year of 365 or 366 days as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) on
such Treasury Interest Determination Date of Treasury bills having the Index
Maturity specified on

<PAGE>

the face hereof as published in H.15(519) under the caption "U.S. Government
Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market;" or

          (v)   if the rate referred to in clause (iv) is not so published by
3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date pertaining to
such Treasury Interest Determination Date, the rate (expressed as a Bond
Equivalent Yield, rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundred-thousandth
of a percentage point, with five-millionths of a percentage point rounded
upwards, on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied
on a daily basis) on such Treasury Interest Determination Date of Treasury bills
having the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof as published in H.15
Daily Update under the caption "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury
Bills/Secondary Market" or another recognized electronic source used for the
purpose of displaying the applicable rate; or

          (vi)  if the rate referred to in clause (v) is not so published by
3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date pertaining to
such Treasury Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will determine
the Treasury Rate to be a yield to maturity (expressed as a Bond Equivalent
Yield, rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one-hundred-thousandth of a
percentage point, with five-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards, on
the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily
basis) of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of
approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such Treasury Interest
Determination Date, of three primary United States government securities dealers
selected by the Calculation Agent, for the issue of Treasury bills with a
remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof;
or

          (vii) if the dealers selected in clause (vi) by the Calculation Agent
are not quoting as mentioned in clause (vi), the Treasury Rate will remain the
Treasury Rate then in effect on such Treasury Interest Determination Date; and,
in the case of each of clauses (i) through (vii) above, adjusted by the addition
or subtraction of the Spread, if any, specified on the face hereof, and/or by
multiplication by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof.

          "Bond Equivalent Yield" means a yield (expressed as a percentage)
calculated in accordance with the following formula:

                                  D x N             x 100
Bond Equivalent Yield  = --------------------------
                               360 - (D x M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a
bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, "N" refers to 365 or 366, as the
case may be, and "M" refers to the actual number of days in the interest period
for which interest is being calculated.

          Indexed Notes.  This Note may be issued with the principal amount
          -------------
payable at Maturity and/or with interest payable hereon on an Interest Payment
Date to be determined by reference to the price or prices of specified
securities or commodities, securities or commodities exchange indices, the
relationship between two or more specified currencies or other factors (each an
"Indexed Note"), as shall be indicated above under "Other Terms."  Specific
information pertaining to the method for determining the principal amount
payable at Maturity or

                                       12
<PAGE>

the amount of interest to be paid on an Interest Payment Date with reference to
the specified index shall be included above under "Other Terms."

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate hereon shall not be
greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum
Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof.  The Calculation Agent
shall calculate the interest rate on this Note in accordance with the foregoing
on or before each Calculation Date.  The interest rate on this Note will in no
event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law as the same may
be modified by United States law of general applicability.

          The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of the Holder of this
Note, provide to such Holder the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if
different, the interest rate which will become effective as a result of a
determination made on the most recent Interest Determination Date.

          Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof and except as provided
below, interest will be payable, in the case of Notes which reset daily, weekly
or monthly, on the third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of
March, June, September and December of each year, as indicated on the face
hereof; in the case of Notes which reset quarterly, on the third Wednesday of
March, June, September and December of each year; in the case of Notes which
reset semi-annually, on the third Wednesday of the two months of each year
specified on the face hereof; and in the case of Notes which reset annually, on
the third Wednesday of the month specified on the face hereof (each an "Interest
Payment Date"), and in each case, at Maturity.  If any Interest Payment Date
specified on the face hereof would otherwise be a day that is not a Business
Day, the Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a
Business Day, except that if (i) the rate of interest on this Note shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of the heading "Determination of
LIBOR" above, and (ii) such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar
month, such Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately preceding Business
Day.

          "Business Day" means (a) with respect to any Note, any day that is not
a Saturday or Sunday and that, in The City of New York, is not a day on which
banking institutions generally are authorized or required by law, regulation or
executive order to close, (b) if the Note is denominated in a Specified Currency
other than United States dollars, not a day on which banking institutions are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the
principal financial center of the country issuing the Specified Currency (but if
the Specified Currency is the Euro, the day must also be a day on which the
Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer (TARGET)
System is open), and (c) if the rate of interest on this Note shall be
determined in accordance with the provisions of the heading "Determination of
LIBOR" above, a London Business Day.  As used in the preceding sentence,
"principal financial center" means the capital city of the country issuing the
Specified Currency, or the capital city of the country to which the LIBOR
Currency relates, except that with respect to United States dollars, Australian
dollars, Canadian dollars, Deutsche marks, Dutch guilders,  Italian lire, Swiss
francs, Portuguese escudos and South African rand, the "principal financial
center" shall be the City of New York, Sydney (and solely in the case of the
LIBOR Currency, Melbourne), Toronto, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milan, Zurich, London
(solely in the case of the LIBOR Currency) and Johannesburg, respectively.
Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof,

                                       13
<PAGE>

"London Business Day" means any day on which commercial banks are open for
business, including dealings in the LIBOR Currency, in London.

          Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the Interest
Determination Date pertaining to an Interest Reset Date if the rate of interest
on this Note shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the
headings (a) "Determination of Commercial Paper Rate" above (the "Commercial
Paper Interest Determination Date"), (b) "Determination of Federal Funds Rate"
above (the "Federal Funds Interest Determination Date"), (c) "Determination of
CD Rate" above (the "CD Interest Determination Date") or (d) "Determination of
Prime Rate" above (the "Prime Rate Interest Determination Date") will be the
Business Day preceding such Interest Reset Date with respect to this Note if the
Interest Rate Basis on this Note is the Prime Rate or the Federal Funds Rate,
and the second Business Day preceding such Interest Reset Date if the Interest
Rate Basis on this Note is the Commercial Paper Rate or the CD Rate. Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, the Interest Determination Date
pertaining to an Interest Reset Date if the rate of interest on this Note shall
be determined in accordance with the provisions of the heading "Determination of
LIBOR" above (the "LIBOR Interest Determination Date") will be the second London
Business Day preceding such Interest Reset Date unless the LIBOR Currency is
British Pounds Sterling, in which case the LIBOR Interest Determination Date
will be the applicable Interest Reset Date. Unless otherwise specified on the
face hereof, the Interest Determination Date pertaining to an Interest Reset
Date if the rate of interest on this Note shall be determined in accordance with
the provisions of the heading "Determination of Treasury Rate" above (the
"Treasury Interest Determination Date") will be the day of the week in which
such Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury bills would normally be
auctioned. Treasury bills are usually sold at auction on Monday of each week,
unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is usually held on
the following Tuesday, except that such auction may be held on the preceding
Friday. If, as the result of a legal holiday, an auction is so held on the
preceding Friday, such Friday will be the Treasury Interest Determination Date
pertaining to the Interest Reset Date occurring in the next succeeding week. If
an auction date shall fall on any Interest Reset Date for a Treasury Rate Note,
then such Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day
immediately following such auction date.

          Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the Calculation Date
pertaining to any Interest Determination Date, other than with respect to LIBOR
Notes, is the earlier of (i) the tenth day after such Interest Determination
Date or, if any such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business
Day, or (ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or
Maturity, as the case may be.

          Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, interest payments, if
any, will be the amount of interest accrued from and including the last date in
respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and
including the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or provided for
with respect to this Note) to but excluding the Interest Payment Date or the
date of Maturity.  Accrued interest hereon from the Original Issue Date or from
the last date to which interest hereon has been paid is calculated by
multiplying the face amount hereof by an accrued interest factor.  Such accrued
interest factor is computed by adding the interest factor calculated for each
day from the Original Issue Date or from the last date to which interest shall
have been paid, to the date for which accrued interest is being calculated.  The
interest factor for each day shall be

                                       14
<PAGE>

computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by 360, in the
case of the Commercial Paper Rate, Federal Funds Rate, Prime Rate, CD Rate or
LIBOR, or by the actual number of days in the year in the case of the Treasury
Rate.  All percentages resulting from any calculation hereon will be rounded to
the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five-one
millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards.  For example, 9.876545% (or
 .09876545) would be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655).  All dollar amounts used
in or resulting from any calculation hereon will be rounded, in the case of
United States dollars, to the nearest cent or, in the case of a Specified
Currency other than United States dollars, to the nearest unit (with one-half
cent or unit being rounded upwards).

          If the Company has the option with respect to this Note to reset the
Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, such option will be indicated on the face
hereof, together with (i) the date or dates on which such Spread and/or Spread
Multiplier may be reset (each an "Optional Reset Date") and (ii) the basis or
formula, if any, for such resetting.  The Company may exercise such option by
notifying the Trustee of such exercise at least 45 but not more than 60 days
prior to an Optional Reset Date.  Not later than 40 days prior to such Optional
Reset Date, the Trustee will mail to the Holder hereof a notice (the "Reset
Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, setting forth (i) the election of the
Company to reset the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, (ii) such new Spread
and/or Spread Multiplier, and (iii) the provisions, if any, for redemption
during the period from such Optional Reset Date to the next Optional Reset Date
or, if there is no such next Optional Reset Date, to the Stated Maturity of this
Note (each such period a "Subsequent Interest Period"), including the date or
dates on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at
which such redemption may occur during such Subsequent Interest Period.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to an
Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread and/or
Spread Multiplier provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Spread
and/or Spread Multiplier for the Subsequent Interest Period commencing on such
Optional Reset Date by mailing or causing the Trustee to mail notice of such
higher Spread and/or Spread Multiplier first class, postage prepaid, to the
Holder hereof.  Such notice shall be irrevocable.  If the Spread and/or Spread
Multiplier is reset on an Optional Reset Date this Note will bear such higher
Spread and/or Spread Multiplier.

          If the Company elects to reset the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier of
this Note, the Holder hereof will have the option to elect repayment of this
Note by the Company on any Optional Reset Date at a price equal to the principal
amount hereof plus any accrued interest to such Optional Reset Date.  In order
for this Note to be so repaid on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder hereof must
follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the
period for delivery of this Note or notification to the Trustee shall be at
least 25 but not more than 35 days prior to such Optional Reset Date and except
that a Holder who has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset
Notice may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke any such tender for
repayment until the close of business on the tenth day prior to such Optional
Reset Date.

          If the Company has the option to extend the Stated Maturity of this
Note for one or more periods (each an "Extension Period") up to but not beyond
the date (the "Final Maturity Date") set forth on the face hereof, such option
will be indicated on the face hereof together with the basis or formula, if any,
for setting the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier applicable to any such Extension
Period.  The Company may exercise such option with respect to this Note by
notifying the Trustee of such exercise at least 45 but not more than 60 days
prior to the Stated Maturity in effect prior to the exercise of such option (the
"Original Stated Maturity"). No later than 40 days prior to the Original Stated
Maturity, the Trustee will mail to the Holder hereof a

                                       15
<PAGE>

notice (the "Extension Notice") relating to such Extension Period, first class,
postage prepaid, setting forth (i) the election of the Company to extend the
Stated Maturity hereof, (ii) the new Stated Maturity, (iii) the Spread and/or
Spread Multiplier applicable to the Extension Period, and (iv) the provisions,
if any, for redemption during the Extension Period, including the date or dates
on which or the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which
such redemption may occur during the Extension Period. Upon the mailing by the
Trustee of an Extension Notice to the Holder of this Note, the Stated Maturity
of this Note shall be extended automatically as set forth in the Extension
Notice, and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the
next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of
such Extension Notice.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the
Original Stated Maturity for this Note, the Company may, at its option, revoke
the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier provided for in the Extension Notice and
establish a higher Spread and/or Spread Multiplier for the Extension Period by
mailing or causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher Spread and/or
Spread Multiplier first class, postage prepaid, to the Holder hereof.  Such
notice shall be irrevocable.  All Notes with respect to which the Stated
Maturity is extended will bear such higher Spread and/or Spread Multiplier for
the Extension Period.

          If the Company elects to extend the Stated Maturity of this Note, the
Holder hereof will have the option to elect repayment of this Note by the
Company at the Original Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount
hereof plus any accrued interest to such date.  In order for this Note to be so
repaid on the Original Stated Maturity, the Holder hereof must follow the
procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that the period for
delivery of this Note or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but
not more than 35 days prior to the Original Stated Maturity and except that a
Holder who has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice
may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke any such tender for repayment
until the close of business on the tenth day prior to the Original Stated
Maturity.

          Unless one or more Redemption Dates is specified on the face hereof,
this Note shall not be redeemable at the option of the Company before the
Maturity Date specified on the face hereof.  If one or more Redemption Dates (or
ranges of Redemption Dates) is so specified, this Note is subject to redemption
on any such date (or during any such range) at the option of the Company, upon
notice by first-class mail, mailed not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days
prior to the Redemption Date specified in such notice, at the applicable
Redemption Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the
principal amount of this Note), together in the case of any such redemption with
accrued interest to the Redemption Date, but interest installments whose Stated
Maturity is prior to the Redemption Date will be payable to the Holder of this
Note, or one or more Predecessor Notes, of record at the close of business on
the relevant Regular or Special Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all
as provided in the Indenture.  The Company may elect to redeem less than the
entire principal amount hereof, provided that the principal amount, if any, of
                                --------
this Note that remains outstanding after such redemption is an Authorized
Denomination as defined herein.

          Unless one or more Repayment Dates is specified on the face hereof,
this Note shall not be repayable at the option of the Holder on any date prior
to the Maturity Date specified

                                       16

on the face hereof. If one or more Repayment Dates (or ranges of Repayment
Dates) is so specified, this Note is subject to repayment on any such date (or
during any such range) at the option of the Holder at the applicable Repayment
Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the principal
amount of this Note), together in the case of any such repayment with accrued
interest to the Repayment Date, but interest installments whose Stated Maturity
is prior to the Repayment Date will be payable to the Holder of this Note, or
one or more Predecessor Notes, of record at the close of business on the
relevant Regular or Special Record Dates referred to on the face hereof, all as
provided in the Indenture. For this Note to be repaid at the option of the
Holder, the Trustee must receive at the principal office of its Corporate Trust
Department in The City of New York, at least 30 days but not more than 45 days
prior to the Repayment Date on which this Note is to be repaid, this Note and a
statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby.
Exercise of the repayment option by the Holder shall be irrevocable except to
the extent permitted in connection with an interest rate reset or an extension
of maturity, each as described above. The repayment option with respect to this
Note may be exercised by the Holder for less than the entire principal amount
hereof, provided that the principal amount, if any, of this Note that remains
        --------
outstanding after such repayment is an Authorized Denomination as defined
herein.

          [Insert if the Security is to be a Certificated Security - In the
event of redemption or repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes
of this series and of like tenor and for a principal amount equal to the
unredeemed or unrepaid portion will be delivered to the registered Holder upon
the cancellation hereof.]

          [Insert if the Security is to be a Global Security - In the event of
redemption or repayment of this Note in part only, the principal amount shall be
reduced.]

          If this is a Foreign Currency Note to be paid in United States
dollars, the United States dollar amount to be received in respect hereof will
be based upon the exchange rate as determined by the Exchange Rate Agent based
on the highest firm bid quotation for United States dollars 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 in The City of New York selected by the Exchange Rate
Agent and approved by the Company (one of which may be the Exchange Rate Agent)
for the purchase by the quoting dealer, for settlement on such payment date, of
the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable on such payment date in
respect of this Note.  If no such bid quotations are available, payments will be
made in the Specified Currency, unless such Specified Currency is unavailable
due to the imposition of exchange controls or to other circumstances beyond the
Company's control, in which case the Company will be entitled to make payments
in respect hereof in United States dollars as provided below.  All currency
exchange costs will be borne by the Holder hereof by deductions from such
payments.

          If a Holder is to receive payments in a Specified Currency other than
United States dollars as described on the face hereof, payments of principal of
(and premium, if any) and interest will be paid in immediately available funds
by wire transfer to an account maintained by the Holder with a bank designated
by the Holder (which in the case of Global Securities will be the Depositary or
its nominee) on or prior to the Regular Record Date or at least 15 days prior to
Maturity, as the case may be, provided that such bank has the appropriate
facilities for such a

                                       17
<PAGE>

payment in the Specified Currency, provided, however, that with respect to
                                   -------- --------
payments of principal and premium, if any, and interest at Maturity this Note is
presented to the Trustee in time for the Trustee to make such payment in
accordance with its normal procedures, which shall require presentation no later
than two Business Days prior to Maturity in order to ensure the availability of
immediately available funds in the Specified Currency at Maturity.

          If payment on this Note is required to be made in a Specified Currency
other than United States dollars and such currency is unavailable in the good
faith judgment of the Company due to the imposition of exchange controls or to
other circumstances beyond the Company's control, or is no longer used by the
government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of
transactions by public institutions of or within the international banking
community, then all payments with respect to this Note shall be made in United
States dollars until such currency is again available or so used.  The amount so
payable on any date in such Specified Currency shall be converted into United
States dollars at a rate determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of
the Market Exchange Rate on the second Business Day prior to such payment, or,
if the Market Exchange Rate is not then available, the most recently available
Market Exchange Rate or as otherwise determined in good faith by the Company if
the foregoing is impracticable.

          If this is a Foreign Currency Note, in the event of an official
redenomination of such foreign currency (including, without limitation, an
official redenomination of a foreign currency that is a composite currency) the
obligations of the Company with respect to payments on this Note denominated in
such currency shall, in all cases, be deemed immediately following such
redenomination to provide for the payment of that amount of redenominated
currency representing the amount of such obligations immediately before such
redenomination.  No adjustment will be made to any amount payable under this
Note as a result of (a) any change in the value of a foreign currency relative
to any other currency due solely to fluctuations in exchange rates or (b) any
redenomination of any component currency of any composite currency (unless such
composite currency is itself officially redenominated).

          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.  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, if any Original Issue
Discount Note (as defined below) is redeemed by the Company or repaid at the
option of the Holder, each as described above, or if the principal of any
Original Issue Discount Note is declared to be due and payable immediately
pursuant to this paragraph, the amount of principal due and payable with respect
to this Note shall be limited to the sum of the aggregate principal amount of
this Note multiplied by the Issue Price (expressed as a per-cent-age of the
aggregate principal amount) plus the original issue discount accrued from the
date of issue to the date of redemption, repayment or declaration, as
applicable, which accrual shall be calculated using the "interest method"
(computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles) in effect
on the date of redemption, repayment or declaration.  Unless otherwise specified
on the face hereof, an Original Issue Discount Note is a Note which has a stated
redemption price at maturity that exceeds its Issue Price by at least 0.25% of
the stated redemption price at maturity, multiplied by the number of complete
years from the Original Issue Date to the Maturity Date for this Note.

          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 of each series to be affected
under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent
of the Holders of not less than 66 2/3% in principal amount of the Notes at the
time Outstanding of each series to be affected.  The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount
of the Notes of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all Notes 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 premium, if any) and
interest on this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.  However, the Indenture limits the Holder's right
to enforce the Indenture and this Note.

          As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations set
forth therein and as may be set forth on the face hereof, 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 premium, if any) 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 like tenor, of Authorized Denominations and
for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.

          [Insert if the Security is a Global Security - This Note is a Global
Note and shall be exchangeable for Notes registered in the names of Persons
other than the Depositary with respect to this Global Note or its nominee only
if (A) such Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as Depositary for this Global Note or at any time ceases to be a
clearing agency registered as such under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, (B) the Company in its discretion executes and delivers to the Trustee
a Company Order that this Global Note shall be exchangeable or (C) there shall
have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.
If this Global Note is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence, it shall
be exchangeable for Notes issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral
multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, registered in such names as such
Depositary shall direct.]

          The Notes of this series are issuable, in the case of Notes
denominated in United States dollars, in denominations of U.S. $1,000 and any
integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof and, in the case of Notes
denominated in a Specified Currency other than United States dollars, in the
authorized denominations set forth on the face hereof (in each case, an
"Authorized Denomination").  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations set

                                       19
<PAGE>

forth therein and as may be set forth on the face hereof, Notes of this series
are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series
of like tenor of a different Authorized Denomination, 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 govern-mental charge payable in connection therewith.

          The Notes of this series may be issued in the form of one or more
Global Securities to The Depository Trust Company as depositary for the Global
Securities of this series (the "Depositary") or its nominee and registered in
the name of the Depositary or such nominee.

          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 this Note is 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.

          All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
