     Morgan Stanley Dean Witter & Co., a Delaware corporation (together with
its successors and assigns, the "Issuer"), for value received, hereby promises
to pay to _______________________, or registered assignees, the principal sum
of ____________________(3), on the Maturity Date specified above (except to the
extent previously redeemed or repaid) and to pay interest thereon at the
Interest Rate per annum specified above from and including the Interest Accrual
Date specified above until but excluding the date the principal hereof is paid
or duly made available for payment (except as provided below) weekly, monthly,
quarterly, semi-annually or annually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates
specified above in each 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.

     Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the most recent
Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or,
if no interest has been paid 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 (except as provided below).
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, redemption or repayment will be payable to the person to whom the
principal hereof shall be payable.

     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 in immediately
available funds upon surrender of this Note at the office or agency of the

holder of U.S. $10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes
having the same Interest Payment Date will 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 Principal 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, payments of interest hereon 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 Principal Paying Agent in writing not
less than 15 calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. If
such wire transfer instructions are not so received, such interest 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.

     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
Authenticating Agent, as defined on the reverse hereof by manual signature,
this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Subordinated
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 Subordinated Global
Medium-Term Notes, Series [D/E], having maturities more than nine months from
the date of issue (the "Notes") of the Issuer. The Notes are issuable under an
Amended and Restated Subordinated Indenture, dated as of May 1, 1999, between
the Issuer and Bank One Trust Company, N.A. (as successor to The First National
Bank of Chicago), as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor
trustee under the Subordinated Indenture) (as may be amended or supplemented
from time to time, the "Subordinated Indenture"), to which Subordinated
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
Trustee has appointed JPMorgan Chase Bank (formerly known as The Chase
Manhattan Bank) as Authenticating Agent (the "Authenticating Agent," which term
includes any successor authenticating agent appointed by the Trustee) with
respect to the Notes, and the Issuer has appointed JPMorgan Chase Bank, acting
through its principal corporate trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, as a paying agent for the Notes in the United States and
JPMorgan Chase Bank, London Branch, at its corporate trust office in London, as
its principal paying agent for the Notes outside the United States (the
"Principal Paying Agent," which term includes any additional or successor
principal paying agent appointed by the Issuer). 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 Subordinated Indenture. To
the extent not inconsistent herewith, the terms of the Subordinated 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 indicated on the face hereof
in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs and except as
set forth below, 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
(except as indicated below). 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
(except as provided below). Notice of redemption shall be mailed to the
registered holders of the Notes designated for redemption 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 Subordinated Indenture. In the event of redemption of this
Note in part only, a new Note or Notes


                                       5
<PAGE>


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 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 (except as provided below).
For this Note to be repaid at the option of the holder hereof, the Principal
Paying Agent must receive at its office in London, 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 trust company in the United States, Western Europe or
Japan setting forth the principal amount of the Note, the principal amount of
the Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and
terms of this Note, a statement that the Option to Elect Repayment is being
exercised and a guarantee that this Note to be repaid, together with the duly
completed form entitled Option to Elect Repayment, will be received by the
principal paying agent not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of
that telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. However, the telegram,
telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if this Note
and an Option to Elect Repayment form duly completed are received by the Paying
Agent by the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex,
facsimile transmission or letter.

     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 specified
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 other obligations of the Issuer hereunder will
constitute part of the subordinated debt of the Issuer, will be issued under
the Subordinated Indenture and will be subordinate and junior in right of
payment, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Subordinated
Indenture, to all "Senior Indebtedness" of the Issuer. The Subordinated
Indenture


                                       6
<PAGE>


defines "Senior Indebtedness" as obligations (other than non-recourse
obligations, the debt securities, including this Note, issued under the
Subordinated Indenture or any other obligations specifically designated as
being subordinate in right of payment to Senior Indebtedness) of, or guaranteed
or assumed by, the Issuer for borrowed money or evidenced by bonds, debentures,
notes or other similar instruments, and amendments, renewals, extensions,
modifications and refundings of any such indebtedness or obligation.

     This Note, and any Note or Notes issued upon transfer or exchange hereof,
is issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons, and is issuable
only in the minimum denominations set forth on the face hereof or any amount in
excess thereof which is an integral multiple of 1,000 units of the Specified
Currency set forth on the face hereof.

     JPMorgan Chase Bank has been appointed registrar for the Notes (the
"Registrar," which term includes any successor registrar appointed by the
Issuer), and the Registrar 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 either the aforesaid New York office or at the London office of
the Registrar by surrendering this Note for cancellation, accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Registrar and duly
executed by the registered holder hereof in person or by the holder's attorney
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Registrar 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 Registrar 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 be redeemed for a period of fifteen calendar days preceding the
mailing of the relevant Notice of redemption. Notes are exchangeable at said
offices for other Notes of other authorized denominations of equal aggregate
principal amount having identical terms and provisions. All such registrations,
exchanges and transfers of Notes will be free of service 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
Registrar 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 Registrar, the Issuer in its discretion will execute a new
Note of like tenor in exchange for this Note, but, if this Note has been
destroyed, lost or stolen, only upon receipt of


                                       7
<PAGE>


evidence satisfactory to the Registrar and the Issuer that this Note was
destroyed or lost 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 Subordinated Indenture provides that (a) if an Event of Default (as
defined in the Subordinated Indenture) due to the default in payment of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any series of debt securities
issued under the Subordinated Indenture, including the series of Subordinated
Global 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 Subordinated Indenture, shall have
occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than
25% in principal amount of the debt securities of each affected series (voting
as a single class) 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 Subordinated Indenture applicable to all
outstanding debt securities issued thereunder, including this Note, or due to
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization of the Issuer,
shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not
less than 25% in principal amount of all debt securities issued under the
Subordinated Indenture then outstanding (treated as one class) 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 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 Subordinated
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 Subordinated 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.


                                       8

     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), 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
Original Issue 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 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.

     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 defined below) 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 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, be required to make any payment of Additional Amounts to any such
holder for or on account of:

          (a) any such 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) and the United States and
     its possessions, including, without limitation, such holder (or such
     fiduciary, settlor,


                                       9
<PAGE>


     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 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 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;

          (d) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable
     otherwise than by withholding 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 and is required to be made pursuant to any
European Union Directive on the taxation of savings implementing the agreement
reached in the ECOFIN Council meeting of 13 December 2001 or any law
implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such
Directive; or (ii)


                                       10
<PAGE>


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 Additional Amounts be
paid 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 Subordinated 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 Subordinated
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 or repayment 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 (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 without the consent of the holder of each debt security so affected 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; provided, however, that neither this Note nor the Subordinated
Indenture may be amended to alter the subordination provisions hereof or
thereof without the written consent of each holder of Senior Indebtedness then
outstanding that would be adversely affected thereby.

     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 (as defined below) 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


                                       11
<PAGE>


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 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 (as defined below) 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 (as defined below) 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. International
Limited, 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. If this Note is listed on the London Stock Exchange plc and such
exchange so requires, the Issuer shall maintain a Paying Agent in London. If
any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings implementing the
agreement reached in the ECOFIN Council meeting of 13 December 2001 or any law
implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such
Directive is introduced, the Issuer will 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 law. The Issuer may designate other
agencies for the payment of said principal, premium and interest at such place
or places outside the United States (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.

     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


                                       12
<PAGE>


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.

     No provision of this Note or of the Subordinated 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 Subordinated 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.
