                  CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS HOLDINGS INC., a corporation duly
organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York (herein referred
to as the "Company"), for value received hereby promises to pay CEDE & Co. or
registered assigns (a) the Principal Amount or, in the case of an Indexed
Principal Note, the Face Amount adjusted by reference to prices, changes in
prices, or differences between prices, of securities, currencies, intangibles,
goods, articles or commodities or by such other objective price, economic or
other measures (an "Index") as described on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, in the Specified Currency on
the Stated Maturity shown above or earlier if and to the extent so provided
herein and (b) accrued interest on the Principal Amount then outstanding (or in
the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount, then outstanding) at the
Interest Rate shown above from the Original Issue Date shown above or from the
most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
semiannually in arrears (unless otherwise set forth herein or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) on the Interest Payment Dates
specified on the face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith and at the Stated Maturity, until, in either case, the
Principal Amount then outstanding or the Face Amount is paid or duly provided
for in accordance with the terms hereof. Unless otherwise specified herein or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest on this
Note, if any, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months or, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

                  The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided
for, on each Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred
to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one
or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest, which, unless otherwise specified on the
face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (and other than interest payable at Stated Maturity), shall be the date
(whether or not a Business Day) fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such
Interest Payment Date and, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity,
shall be the Stated Maturity of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest
Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue
Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date.
Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof on such Regular Record Date,
and may be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) 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 ten
days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Registered Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be
required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

                  For purposes of this Note, "Business Day" means: (i) with
respect to any Registered 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 obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii)
with respect to Registered Notes having a specified currency other than U.S.
dollars only, other than Registered Notes denominated in Euros, any day that, in
the principal financial center (as defined below) of the country of the
specified currency, is not a day on which banking institutions generally are
authorized or obligated by law to close; and (iii) with respect to Notes
denominated in Euros, a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time
Gross Settlement Express Transfer ("TARGET") System is open (a "TARGET Business
Day").

                                       3

<PAGE>

                  As used above, a "principal financial center" means the
capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with
respect to U.S. dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, and Swiss francs,
the principal financial center shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Toronto,
and Zurich, respectively.

                  If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or
all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in
accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an
Index (as described above).

                  If the Holder of this Note has a Survivor's Option, as
indicated above, to elect repayment of this Note prior to Stated Maturity in the
event of the death of any beneficial owner hereof, then, pursuant to exercise of
such Survivor's Option, the Company will repay this Note (or applicable portion
hereof) when properly tendered for repayment by or on behalf of the Person (the
"Representative") that has authority to act on behalf of the deceased beneficial
owner hereof under the laws of the appropriate jurisdiction (including, without
limitation, the personal representative, executor, surviving joint tenant or
surviving tenant by the entirety of such deceased beneficial owner) at a price
equal to the Amortized Face Amount (calculated as set forth below) payable
hereunder with respect to such beneficial owner, plus accrued interest thereon
to the date of such repayment; provided, however, that the Company may, in its
sole discretion, limit to $2,500,000 (or the approximate equivalent thereof in
other currencies) the aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series as to
which exercises of the Survivor's Option will be accepted in any calendar year
(the "Annual Put Limitation") and, in the event that the Annual Put Limitation
is applied, limit to $250,000 (or the approximate equivalent thereof in other
currencies) the aggregate principal amount of Notes (or portions thereof) as to
which exercises of the Survivor's Option will be accepted in such calendar year
with respect to any individual deceased beneficial owner of Notes; and provided,
further, that the Company will not make any principal payment pursuant to
exercise of the Survivor's Option in an amount that is less than $5,000 (or the
approximate equivalent thereof in other currencies), and, in the event that the
foregoing limitations would result in the partial repayment to any individual
deceased beneficial owner of Notes, the principal amount owned by such deceased
beneficial owner must not be less than $5,000 (or the approximate equivalent
thereof in other currencies) as a result of such repayment, which is the minimum
authorized denomination of the Notes. This Note, or any portion hereof, if
tendered pursuant to an exercise of the Survivor's Option, may be withdrawn by a
written request of the Holder hereof received by the Paying Agent prior to its
repayment.

                  The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be
the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof plus (ii)
that portion of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal
amount of such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to
Maturity set forth on the face hereof or (y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to
Call set forth on the face hereof (computed in each case in accordance with
generally accepted United States bond yield computation principles), provided,
however, that in no event shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its
stated principal amount. The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note
shall be computed on the basis of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date
with respect to such Note and the amount payable on such Optional Redemption
Date. In the event that such Note is not redeemed on such first occurring
Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield to Call with respect to such Note shall
be recomputed on such Optional Redemption Date on the basis of the next
occurring Optional Redemption Date and the amount payable on such Optional
Redemption Date, and shall

                                       4

<PAGE>

continue to be so recomputed on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until
the Note is so redeemed.

                  This Note (or any portion hereof), if tendered pursuant to a
valid exercise of the Survivor's Option, will be accepted promptly based on the
order in which all such Notes (or any portion thereof) are tendered, unless the
acceptance hereof would (i) contravene the Annual Put Limitation or (ii) result
in the acceptance during the then current calendar year of an aggregate
principal amount of Notes (or portions thereof) exceeding $250,000 (or the
approximate equivalent thereof) with respect to any individual deceased
beneficial owner. If, as of the end of any calendar year, the Company has not
imposed the Annual Put Limitation or the aggregate principal amount of Notes
that have been accepted pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option during
such year has not exceeded the Annual Put Limitation for such year, any exercise
of the Survivor's Option with respect to this Note (or any portion hereof) not
accepted during such calendar year because more than $250,000 (or the
approximate equivalent thereof) aggregate principal amount of Notes (or portions
thereof) was tendered with respect to the individual deceased beneficial owner
hereof will be accepted in the order all such Notes were tendered, to the extent
that any such exercise would not trigger the Annual Put Limitation, if any, for
such calendar year. This Note (or portion hereof), if accepted for repayment
pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option, will be repaid on the first
Interest Payment Date that occurs twenty or more calendar days after the date of
such acceptance. If this Note (or any portion hereof) is tendered for repayment
and is not accepted in any calendar year due to the application of the Annual
Put Limitation, then this Note (or any such portion) will be deemed to be
tendered in the following calendar year based on the order in which all such
Notes (or any portion thereof) were originally tendered, unless this Note (or
any such portion hereof) is withdrawn by the Holder. In the event that this Note
(or any portion hereof) tendered for repayment pursuant to valid exercise of the
Survivor's Option is not accepted, the Paying Agent will deliver a notice to the
affected Representative by first-class mail to the broker or other entity that
represents the deceased beneficial owner of this Note that states the reasons
this Note (or such portion) has not been accepted for repayment. If this Note is
an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or all the principal amount of
the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in accordance with a schedule, by
application of a formula, or by reference to an Index (as described above).

                  Subject to the foregoing, in order for the Survivor's Option
to be validly exercised, the Paying Agent must receive (i) a written request for
repayment signed by the Representative, and such signature must be guaranteed by
a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company
having an office or correspondent in the United States, (ii) tender of this Note
(or applicable portion hereof), (iii) appropriate evidence satisfactory to the
Company and the Paying Agent that (A) the Representative has authority to act on
behalf of the applicable deceased beneficial owner hereof, (B) the death of such
beneficial owner has occurred and (C) the deceased was a beneficial owner hereof
at the time of death, and (iv) if applicable, a properly executed assignment or
endorsement, and (v) if the Note is held by a nominee of the deceased beneficial
owner, a certificate satisfactory to the Paying Agent from such nominee
attesting to the beneficial ownership of such Note. All questions as to the
eligibility or validity of any exercise of the Survivor's Option will be
determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, which determination will be
final and binding.

                  The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are
payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified
Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to
convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S.

                                       5

dollars in the manner described on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if
so indicated above, elect to receive all payments in respect hereof in the
Specified Currency by delivery of a written notice to the Trustee not later than
fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. Such election will
remain in effect until revoked by written notice to the Trustee received not
later than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable payment date. If the
Company determines that the Specified Currency is not available for making
payments in respect hereof due to the imposition of exchange controls or 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 or within the international banking
community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to receive payments in the
Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election shall be automatically
suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until the Company determines
that the Specified Currency is again available for making such payments.

                  Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest
payable at Stated Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register on
the applicable Record Date; provided that, if the Holder hereof is the Holder of
U.S. $10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a currency other than U.S.
dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof) or more in aggregate
principal amount of Registered Notes of like tenor and term, such U.S. dollar
interest payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds,
but only if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing
by the Trustee not less than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable
Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with any election by the Holder hereof to
receive payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency (if other than U.S.
dollars), such Holder shall provide appropriate wire transfer instructions to
the Trustee and all such payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located
outside the United States. The principal hereof and any premium and interest
hereon payable at Stated Maturity will be paid in immediately available funds
upon surrender of this Note at the corporate trust office or agency of the
Trustee located in the City and State of New York.

                     CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS HOLDINGS INC.
                        MEDIUM-TERM SENIOR NOTE, SERIES A
                   DUE NINE MONTHS OR MORE FROM DATE OF ISSUE
                                  (FIXED RATE)

General

                  This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt
securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one
or more series under an indenture, dated as of December 1, 1988, as amended (the
"Indenture"), between the Company and Bank One Trust Company, N.A., as successor
trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor Trustee under the
Indenture), to which indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of
the Debt Securities and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are
to be, authenticated and delivered. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public
offering price or purchase price of Notes denominated in currencies other than
U.S. dollars will be determined by the Company or its agent, as exchange rate
agent for the Notes (the "Exchange Rate Agent") on the basis of the noon buying
rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for
customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange
Rate") for such currencies on the applicable issue dates.

                  The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000
and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S.
dollars will be the approximate equivalents thereof in the Specified Currency.

                  Each Registered Note will be issued initially as a Book-Entry
Note, and will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes, except as otherwise
provided in the Indenture or specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

Fixed Rate Notes

                  This Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date, or
from the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for, at the Interest Rate stated on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith until the principal amount
hereof is paid or made available for payment, except as otherwise described
below under "Subsequent Interest Periods" and "Extension of Stated Maturity",
and except that if so specified in the attached pricing supplement, the rate of
interest payable may be subject to adjustment as specified therein.

                  Unless otherwise set forth herein or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest on this Note will be payable
semiannually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates set forth above and at
Stated Maturity. If an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note would
otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall
not be postponed; provided, however, that any payment required to be made in
respect of such Note on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is
not a Business Day for such Note need not be made

                                       1

<PAGE>

on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same
force and effect as if made on such date, and no additional interest shall
accrue as a result of such delayed payment. However, if with respect to any Note
for which "Accrue to Pay" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, any Interest Payment Date with
respect to such Fixed Rate Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business
Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding
Business Day.

                  Each payment of interest in respect of an Interest Payment
Date shall include interest accrued through the day before such Interest Payment
Date. Unless otherwise specified herein, interest on this Note will be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months ("30 over 360") or, in
the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

Subsequent Interest Periods

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest Rate on this Note
may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an
"Optional Reset Date"). The Company may reset the Interest Rate by notifying the
Trustee for this Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to each
Optional Reset Date. Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date,
the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"),
first class, postage prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to
reset the Interest Rate, and if so, (i) such new Interest Rate and (ii) 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
the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the Trustee of a Reset
Notice to the Holder of a Note, such new Interest Rate shall take effect
automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below,
such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset
Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the
Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Interest Rate
provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Interest Rate for the
Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher
Interest Rate, first class, postage prepaid, to the Holder of this Note. Such
notice shall be irrevocable. All Registered Notes with respect to which the
Interest Rate is reset on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Interest
Rate.

                  The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect
repayment of the Note by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price
equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional
Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder
must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that
the period for delivery 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 if the
Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the
Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment
until the close of business on the tenth day before the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

                  If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, then the principal
amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement is
determined by reference to the amount designated on

                                       2

the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith as the Face Amount of this Note and by reference to the Index as
described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith. If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the principal
amount payable at Stated Maturity or any earlier redemption or repayment of this
Note may be different from the Face Amount. If a third party is appointed to
calculate or announce the Index for a particular Indexed Note and the third
party either suspends the calculation or announcement of such Index or changes
the basis upon which such Index is calculated in a manner that is inconsistent
with the applicable pricing supplement, then the Company will select another
third party to calculate or announce the Index. The agent or another affiliate
of the Company may be either the original or successor third party selected by
the Company.

                  If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same
basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original
third party, then the indexed principal amount of this Note shall be calculated
in the manner set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Any determination
of such third party shall in the absence of manifest error be binding on all
parties.

Specified Currency

                  If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the
amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be
determined by the Company or its agent based on the highest firm bid quotation
expressed in U.S. dollars received by the Company or its agent at approximately
11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the
applicable payment date (or, if no such rate is quoted on such date, the last
date on which such rate was quoted) from three (or, if three are not available,
then two) recognized foreign exchange dealers in The City of New York selected
by the Exchange Rate Agent (one or more of which may be an agent involved in the
distribution of the Notes (an "Agent") and another 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 all Registered Notes denominated in such Specified
Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such
Registered Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are
available, then such payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the
Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or
to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will
be made as described in the next paragraph.

Payments in Currencies other than the Specified Currency

                  Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is
required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such
currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or 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 such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency
is again available or so used. The amount so payable in such foreign currency
shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available
Market Exchange Rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any
payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute an
Event of Default under the Indenture.

                  In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified
Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but
including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified
Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note 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. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any
amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the
Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to
fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component
currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself
officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a
country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described
in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the
following paragraph.

                  Certain of the foreign currencies in which debt securities may
be denominated or payments in respect of index warrants may be due or by which
amounts due on the offered securities may be calculated could be issued by
countries participating in Stage III of the European Economic and Monetary
Union. Stage III began on January 1, 1999 for the eleven participating member
states of the European Union that satisfied the economic convergence criteria in
the Treaty on European Union: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany,
Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Greece became a
participating member state on January 1, 2001.

                  Stage III includes the introduction of the "Euro," which,
along with the present national currency of each participating member state, is
legal tender in the participating member states.

Dual Currency Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the
Company may have a one time option of making all payments of principal, premium,
if any, and interest on all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and
having the same terms (a "Tranche"), which payments would otherwise be made in
the Specified Currency of such Notes, in an optional currency (the "Optional
Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on
an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the dates specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

                  If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in
the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange
Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith. If such election is made, notice of such election shall
be mailed in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tranche of Dual
Currency Notes within two Business Days of the Option Election Date and shall
state (i) the first date, whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated
Maturity, in which scheduled payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be
made and (ii) the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once
given, may not be withdrawn. The equivalent value in the Specified Currency of
payments made after such an election may be less, at the then current exchange
rate, than if the Company had made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note
will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth
month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity
Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in
accordance with the following procedures:

                  On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month
(unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal
Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the
last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date
(each, together with the Initial Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of
this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth
month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in
a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date,
if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion
thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of
any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period
prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the
Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the
Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

                  The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so
specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the
Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of
the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15
nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon
each subsequent Holder of this Note. An election to renew the term of this Note
may be exercised with respect to less than the entire principal amount of this
Note only if so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith and then only in such principal amount, or
any integral multiple in excess thereof, as is specified on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the term of this Note may not be extended beyond the Stated
Maturity specified for this Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith.

                  If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must
be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as
practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed
paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a
Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note
for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms
identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall
have a fixed, nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if
an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount
of such Holder's Note, the Trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, shall
issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such Holder a replacement
Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such
exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise
identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Stated Maturity

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Stated Maturity of this
Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of
whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five years
up to but not beyond the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The
Company may exercise such option by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least
45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If
the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this
Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the
"Extension Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating (i) the election
of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity,
(iii) the Interest Rate applicable to the Extension Period, and (iv) the
provisions, if any, for redemption during such 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
Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of this Note
shall be extended automatically 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 Notice.

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

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

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its
option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an
"Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption
Price") (together with accrued interest to such Optional Redemption Date)
specified herein. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee shall mail to the
Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage prepaid, at least 30
days prior to the date of redemption. Unless otherwise stated herein, the
Company may exercise such option with respect to a redemption of this Note in
part only by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45 days prior to any
Optional Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of

                                       6

<PAGE>

this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof
will be issued to the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will be repayable
prior to Stated Maturity at the option of the Holder on the Optional Repayment
Dates shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith at the Optional Repayment Prices shown on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, together with
accrued interest to the date of repayment. In order for this Note to be repaid,
the Trustee must receive at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an
Optional Repayment Date (i) this Note with the form below entitled "Option to
Elect Repayment" duly completed; or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile
transmission or 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 of America setting forth the name of the Holder of
this 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 thereby and a guarantee that this
Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed
will be received by the Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date
of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. If the procedure
described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is followed, this Note with
form duly completed must be received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day.
Any tender of this Note for repayment (except pursuant to a Reset Notice or an
Extension Notice) shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised by
the Holder of this Note for less than the entire principal amount of the Note;
provided that the principal amount of this Note remaining outstanding after
repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial repayment, this Note
shall be canceled and a new Note or Notes for the remaining principal amount
hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Note.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will not be
subject to any sinking fund.

                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if this Note
is a Discount Note, the amount payable in the event of redemption or repayment
prior to the Stated Maturity hereof (other than pursuant to an optional
redemption by the Company at a stated Redemption Price), in lieu of the
principal amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, shall be the Amortized Face
Amount of this Note as of the redemption date or the date of repayment, as the
case may be. The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be the
amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith plus (ii) that portion
of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of
such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set
forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith or (y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United
States bond yield computation principles); provided, however, that in no event
shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount.
The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith shall be computed on the basis
of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and
the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note
is not redeemed on such first occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield
to Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional
Redemption Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and
the amount payable on such

                                       7

<PAGE>

Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so recomputed on each
succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so redeemed.

                  The Company may at any time purchase Registered Notes at any
price in the open market or otherwise. Registered Notes so purchased by the
Company may, at the discretion of the Company, be held or resold or surrendered
to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation.

Other Terms

                  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Registered Notes of different authorized denominations, as
requested by the Person surrendering the same.

                  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable on the
Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration
of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan,
the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security
Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Registered Notes of
this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

                  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 governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

                  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 Holder hereof
for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                  If an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of
this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all the Debt
Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in this manner and
with the effect provided in the Indenture.

                  In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated,
destroyed, stolen or lost and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft, or
destruction hereof (together with such indemnity and such other documents or
proof as may be required by the Company or the Trustee) shall be delivered to
the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee or the agent of the Company
or Trustee, a new Registered Note of like tenor and principal amount will be
issued by the Company in exchange for, or in lieu of, this Note. All expenses
and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the
preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Registered Note shall be borne
by the Holder of 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 Debt Securities
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 a majority in
aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities at the time outstanding of each
series to be affected. The

                                       8

<PAGE>

Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified
percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities of any series
at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Debt Securities 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 Debt Security shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Debt
Security and of any Debt Security issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon the Debt Security.

                  Holders of Debt Securities may not enforce their rights
pursuant to the Indenture or the Note except as provided in the Indenture. 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, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed.

                  This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made and to be
performed solely in the State of New York and for all purposes be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of said State without regard to the
conflicts of law rules of said State.

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

                  CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS HOLDINGS INC., a corporation duly
organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York (herein referred
to as the "Company"), for value received hereby promises to pay CEDE & Co. or
registered assigns (a) the Principal Amount or, in the case of an Indexed
Principal Note, the Face Amount adjusted by reference to prices, changes in
prices, or differences between prices, of securities, currencies, intangibles,
goods, articles or commodities or by such other objective price, economic or
other measures (an "Index") as described on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, in the Specified Currency on
the Stated Maturity shown above or earlier if and to the extent so provided
herein, and (b) accrued interest on the Principal Amount then outstanding (or,
in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount then outstanding): (i)
if this is a Floating Rate Note, at the Initial Interest Rate shown above from
the Original Issue Date shown above until the first Interest Reset Date shown
above following the Original Issue Date and thereafter at the Base Rate shown
above, adjusted by the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, shown above,
determined in accordance with the provisions hereof, (ii) if this is an Indexed
Rate Note, at a rate determined by reference to an Index as described herein,
(iii) if this is an Inverse Floating Rate Note, at the Initial Interest Rate
shown above from the Original Issue Date shown above until the first Interest
Reset Date shown above following the Original Issue Date and thereafter at the
Inverse Floating Rate, as determined in accordance with the provisions hereof,
or (iv) if this is a Floating Rate / Fixed Rate Note, at a rate determined as
described herein, until, in each case, the Principal Amount or the Face Amount
then outstanding is paid or duly provided for in accordance with the terms
hereof.

                  The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided
for, on each Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred
to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one
or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest, which, unless otherwise specified on the
face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (and other than interest payable at Stated Maturity), shall be the date
(whether or not a Business Day) fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such
Interest Payment Date and, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity,
shall be the Stated Maturity of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest
Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue
Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date.
Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof on such Regular Record Date,
and may be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) 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 ten
days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Registered Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be
required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

                  For purposes of this Note, "Business Day" means: (i) with
respect to any Registered 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 obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii)
if the Base Rate specified above is LIBOR, any such day on which dealings in

                                       4

<PAGE>

deposits in the Specified Currency are transacted in the London interbank market
(a "London Business Day"); (iii) with respect to Registered Notes having a
specified currency other than U.S. dollars only, other than Registered Notes
denominated in Euros, any day that, in the principal financial center (as
defined below) of the country of the Specified Currency, is not a day on which
banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law to close; and
(iv) with respect to EURIBOR Notes and Notes denominated in Euros, a day on
which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer
("TARGET") System is open (a "Target Business Day").

                  As used above, a "principal financial center" means the
capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with
respect to U.S. dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, and Swiss francs,
the principal financial center shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Toronto,
and Zurich, respectively.

                  If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or
all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in
accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an
Index (as described above).

                  If the Holder of this Note has a Survivor's Option, as
indicated above, to elect repayment of this Note prior to Stated Maturity in the
event of the death of any beneficial owner hereof, then, pursuant to exercise of
such Survivor's Option, the Company will repay this Note (or applicable portion
hereof) when properly tendered for repayment by or on behalf of the Person (the
"Representative") that has authority to act on behalf of the deceased beneficial
owner hereof under the laws of the appropriate jurisdiction (including, without
limitation, the personal representative, executor, surviving joint tenant or
surviving tenant by the entirety of such deceased beneficial owner) at a price
equal to the Amortized Face Amount (calculated as set forth below) payable
hereunder with respect to such beneficial owner, plus accrued interest thereon
to the date of such repayment; provided, however, that the Company may, in its
sole discretion, limit to $2,500,000 (or the approximate equivalent thereof in
other currencies) the aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series as to
which exercises of the Survivor's Option will be accepted in any calendar year
(the "Annual Put Limitation") and, in the event that the Annual Put Limitation
is applied, limit to $250,000 (or the approximate equivalent thereof in other
currencies) the aggregate principal amount of Notes (or portions thereof) as to
which exercises of the Survivor's Option will be accepted in such calendar year
with respect to any individual deceased beneficial owner of Notes; and provided,
further, that the Company will not make any principal payment pursuant to
exercise of the Survivor's Option in an amount that is less than $5,000 (or the
approximate equivalent thereof in other currencies), and, in the event that the
foregoing limitations would result in the partial repayment to any individual
deceased beneficial owner of Notes, the principal amount owned by such deceased
beneficial owner must not be less than $5,000 (or the approximate equivalent
thereof in other currencies) as a result of such repayment, which is the minimum
authorized denomination of the Notes. This Note, or any portion hereof, if
tendered pursuant to an exercise of the Survivor's Option, may be withdrawn by a
written request of the Holder hereof received by the Paying Agent prior to its
repayment.

                  The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be
the amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof plus (ii)
that portion of the difference between

                                       5

<PAGE>

such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of such Note that has accrued
by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set forth on the face hereof or
(y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on the face hereof
(computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United States bond
yield computation principles), provided, however, that in no event shall the
Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount. The Bond
Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note shall be computed on the basis of
the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and the
amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note is
not redeemed on such first occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield to
Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional Redemption
Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and the amount
payable on such Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so recomputed
on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so redeemed.

                  This Note (or any portion hereof), if tendered pursuant to a
valid exercise of the Survivor's Option, will be accepted promptly based on the
order in which all such Notes (or any portion thereof) are tendered, unless the
acceptance hereof would (i) contravene the Annual Put Limitation or (ii) result
in the acceptance during the then current calendar year of an aggregate
principal amount of Notes (or portions thereof) exceeding $250,000 (or the
approximate equivalent thereof) with respect to any individual deceased
beneficial owner. If, as of the end of any calendar year, the Company has not
imposed the Annual Put Limitation or the aggregate principal amount of Notes
that have been accepted pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option during
such year has not exceeded the Annual Put Limitation for such year, any exercise
of the Survivor's Option with respect to this Note (or any portion hereof) not
accepted during such calendar year because more than $250,000 (or the
approximate equivalent thereof) aggregate principal amount of Notes (or portions
thereof) was tendered with respect to the individual deceased beneficial owner
hereof will be accepted in the order all such Notes were tendered, to the extent
that any such exercise would not trigger the Annual Put Limitation, if any, for
such calendar year. This Note (or portion hereof), if accepted for repayment
pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option, will be repaid on the first
Interest Payment Date that occurs twenty or more calendar days after the date of
such acceptance. If this Note (or any portion hereof) is tendered for repayment
and is not accepted in any calendar year due to the application of the Annual
Put Limitation, then this Note (or any such portion) will be deemed to be
tendered in the following calendar year based on the order in which all such
Notes (or any portion thereof) were originally tendered, unless this Note (or
any such portion hereof) is withdrawn by the Holder. In the event that this Note
(or any portion hereof) tendered for repayment pursuant to valid exercise of the
Survivor's Option is not accepted, the Paying Agent will deliver a notice to the
affected Representative by first-class mail to the broker or other entity that
represents the deceased beneficial owner of this Note that states the reasons
this Note (or such portion) has not been accepted for repayment.

                  Subject to the foregoing, in order for the Survivor's Option
to be validly exercised, the Paying Agent must receive (i) a written request for
repayment signed by the Representative, and such signature must be guaranteed by
a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company
having an office or correspondent in the United States, (ii) tender of this Note
(or applicable portion hereof), (iii) appropriate evidence satisfactory to the
Company and the Paying Agent that (A) the Representative has authority to act on
behalf of the applicable

                                       6

<PAGE>
deceased beneficial owner hereof, (B) the death of such beneficial owner has
occurred and (C) the deceased was a beneficial owner hereof at the time of
death, and (iv) if applicable, a properly executed assignment or endorsement,
and (v) if the Note is held by a nominee of the deceased beneficial owner, a
certificate satisfactory to the Paying Agent from such nominee attesting to the
beneficial ownership of such Note. All questions as to the eligibility or
validity of any exercise of the Survivor's Option will be determined by the
Company, in its sole discretion, which determination will be final and binding.

                  The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are
payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified
Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to
convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S. dollars in the manner described
on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if so indicated above, elect to
receive all payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency by delivery of
a written notice to the Trustee not later than fifteen calendar days prior to
the applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect until revoked
by written notice to the Trustee received not later than fifteen calendar days
prior to the applicable payment date. If the Company determines that the
Specified Currency is not available for making payments in respect hereof due to
the imposition of exchange controls or 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 or within
the international banking community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to
receive payments in the Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election
shall be automatically suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until
the Company determines that the Specified Currency is again available for making
such payments.

                  Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest
payable at Stated Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register on
the applicable Record Date; provided that, if the Holder hereof is the Holder of
U.S. $10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a currency other than U.S.
dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof) or more in aggregate
principal amount of Registered Notes of like tenor and term, such U.S. dollar
interest payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds,
but only if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing
by the Trustee not less than fifteen calendar days prior to the applicable
Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with any election by the Holder hereof to
receive payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency (if other than U.S.
dollars), such Holder shall provide appropriate wire transfer instructions to
the Trustee and all such payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located
outside the United States. The principal hereof and any premium and interest
hereon payable at Stated Maturity will be paid in immediately available funds
upon surrender of this Note at the corporate trust office or agency of the
Trustee located in the City and State of New York.

                  REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS
NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF AND IN ANY PRICING SUPPLEMENT ATTACHED
HERETO OR DELIVERED HEREWITH, AND SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES
HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGH FULLY SET FORTH IN THIS PLACE.

                        MEDIUM-TERM SENIOR NOTE, SERIES A
                           (FLOATING OR INDEXED RATE)

General

                  This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt
securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one
or more series under an indenture, dated as of December 1, 1988, as amended (the
"Indenture"), between the Company and Bank One Trust Company, N.A., as successor
trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor Trustee under the
Indenture), to which indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of
the Debt Securities and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are
to be, authenticated and delivered. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public
offering price or purchase price of Notes denominated in currencies other than
U.S. dollars will be determined by the Company or its agent, as exchange rate
agent for the Notes (the "Exchange Rate Agent") on the basis of the noon buying
rate in New York City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for
customs purposes by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange
Rate") for such currencies on the applicable issue dates.

                  The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000
and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S.
dollars will be the approximate equivalents thereof in the Specified Currency.

                  Each Registered Note will be issued initially as a Book-Entry
Note, and will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes, except as otherwise
provided in the Indenture or specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

Floating Rate Notes

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the

Floating Rate Note, this Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date
to, but not including, the first Interest Reset Date (as defined below) at the
Initial Interest Rate set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith. Thereafter, the interest rate hereon for
each Interest Reset Period will be determined by reference to the Base Rate
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, plus or minus the Spread, if any, or multiplied by the
Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Base Rates that may be
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith are LIBOR, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Treasury Rate, the
Federal Funds Rate, the CD Rate, the Prime

attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note may also have either or both of
the following (in each case expressed as a rate per annum on a simple interest
basis): (i) a maximum limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may
accrue during any interest period ("Maximum Interest Rate") and/or (ii) a

any interest period ("Minimum Interest Rate"). In addition to any Maximum
Interest Rate that may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest rate will in no
event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, as the same
may be modified by United States law of general application.

                  The Company will appoint, and enter into an agreement with,
agents (each, a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on this Note.
All determinations of interest rates by the Calculation Agent shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the
Holder hereof. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, Citibank, N.A. shall be the
Calculation Agent for this Note. At the request of the Holder hereof, the
Calculation Agent will provide the interest rate then in effect and, if
determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the next Interest
Reset Date.

                  The interest rate hereon will be reset daily, weekly, monthly,
quarterly, semiannually or annually (such period being the "Interest Reset
Period" specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith, and the first day of each Interest Reset Period
being an "Interest Reset Date"). Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest
Reset Dates will be as follows: (i) if this Note resets daily, each Business
Day; (ii) if this Note (unless this Note is a Treasury Rate Note) resets weekly,
Wednesday of each week; (iii) if this Note is a Treasury Rate Note that resets
weekly, Tuesday of each week (except as provided below under "Determination of
Treasury Rate"); (iv) if this Note resets monthly, the third Wednesday of each
month (with the exception of monthly reset Eleventh District Cost of

                                       2

<PAGE>

Funds Rate Notes, which reset on the first calendar day of each month); (v) if
this Note is an Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Note that resets monthly,
the first calendar day of each month; (vi) if this Note resets quarterly, the
third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; (vii) if
this Note resets semiannually, the third Wednesday of the two months of each
year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith; and (viii) if this Note resets annually, the third
Wednesday of the month of each year specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If an Interest Reset
Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset
Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the
Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such Business Day is in the
next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall instead be the
immediately preceding Business Day. If an auction of direct obligations of
United States Treasury Bills falls on a day that is an Interest Reset Date for
Treasury Rate Notes, the Interest Reset Date shall be the succeeding Business
Day.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and except as set forth
in the next paragraph, the interest payable hereon on each Interest Payment Date
shall be the accrued interest from and including the Original Issue Date or the
last date to which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding
such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if the interest rate is
reset daily or weekly, the interest payable hereon shall be the accrued interest
from and including the Original Issue Date or the last date to which interest
has been accrued and paid, as the case may be, to but excluding the Record Date
immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, except that, at Stated
Maturity, the interest payable will include interest accrued to, but excluding,
the date of Stated Maturity.

                  If more than one Interest Reset Date occurs during any period
for which accrued interest is being calculated, accrued interest shall be
calculated by multiplying the principal amount hereof (or if this Note is an
Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) by an accrued interest
factor. Such accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest
factors calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is
being calculated. The interest factor (expressed as a decimal calculated to
seven decimal places without rounding) for each such day will be computed,
unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, by dividing the interest rate in effect
on such day by 360, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the
Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, the CD Rate, the Prime Rate, the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, LIBOR, or EURIBOR, or by the actual number
of days in the year, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate.
In all other cases, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the
principal amount hereof (or if this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the Face
Amount specified on the face hereof) by the interest rate in effect during the
period for which accrued interest is being calculated, and multiplying that
product by the quotient obtained by dividing the number of days in the period
for which accrued interest is being calculated by 360, if the Base Rate
specified on the face hereof is the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds
Rate, the CD Rate, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate,
LIBOR, or EURIBOR, or by the actual number of days in the year, if the Base Rate
specified on the face hereof is the Treasury Rate. For

                                       3

<PAGE>
purposes of making the foregoing calculations, the interest rate in effect on
any Interest Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such date.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, all percentages
resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest hereof will be rounded,
if necessary, to the nearest 1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five
one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all currency amounts
used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to the nearest
one-hundredth of a unit (with .005 of a unit being rounded upward).

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest will be
payable as follows: (i) if this Note resets daily, weekly or monthly (other than
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes), interest will be payable on the
third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June,
September and December of each year, as specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith or; (ii) in the case of
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes, interest will be payable on the
first calendar day of each March, June, September and December; (iii) if this
Note resets quarterly, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of March,
June, September, and December of each year; (iv) if this Note resets
semiannually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each of two
months of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith; and (v) if this Note resets annually,
interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of the month of each year
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, and in each case at Stated Maturity (each such day being an
"Interest Payment Date"). If an Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a
day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to
the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the Base Rate specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith
is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar
month, such Interest Payment Date shall instead be the immediately preceding
Business Day; provided, however, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue
to Pay" is not specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, if an Interest Payment Date with respect
to such Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest
Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, further, that any payment
required to be made in respect of a Note that does not Accrue to Pay on a date
(including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a Business Day for such Note
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 such date, and no additional
interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

                  Subject to applicable provisions of law and except as
specified herein, on each Interest Reset Date the rate of interest shall be the
rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading
below.

Determination of CD Rate

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, this
Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the CD Rate and the Spread or Spread

                                       4

<PAGE>

Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "CD Rate" for each Interest Reset
Period shall be the rate as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest
Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "CD Rate Determination Date") for
negotiable certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith
as published in H.15(519) under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)". In the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the Calculation Date (as defined above) pertaining to such CD Rate Determination
Date, then the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on such
CD Rate Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit of the Index
Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith as published in the H.15 Daily Update. If by 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet
published in either H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update, then the "CD Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be
the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New
York City time, on such CD Rate Determination Date of three leading nonbank
dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New
York selected by the Calculation Agent for negotiable certificates of deposit of
major United States money center banks of the highest credit standing (in the
market for negotiable certificates of deposit) with a remaining maturity closest
to the Index Maturity on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith in a denomination of $5,000,000; provided, however,
that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not
quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the CD Rate for such
Interest Reset Period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately
preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period,
the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of Commercial Paper Rate

                  If the Base Rate shown on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Commercial Paper Rate,
this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the Commercial Paper Rate and the Spread or Spread
Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Commercial Paper Rate" for each
Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the
second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset
Period (a "Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date") and shall be the Money
Market Yield (as defined below) on such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date
of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as
such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the heading "Commercial
Paper-Nonfinancial". In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date (as defined above) pertaining
to such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate
for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield on such
Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of the
Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith as published in the H.15 Daily Update
under the heading "Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial". If by 3:00 p.m., New York
City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either
H.15(519) or the H.15 Daily Update, then the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield of the

                                       5

<PAGE>

arithmetic mean of the offered rates as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on
such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of three leading dealers of
commercial paper in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for
commercial paper of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith placed for an
industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a nationally
recognized rating agency; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as
aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in
this sentence, the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will
be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the immediately preceding Interest
Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial
Interest Rate).

                  "Money Market Yield" shall be the yield calculated in
accordance with the following formula:

                                               D x 360
                     Money Market Yield = ----------------- X 100
                                             360 - (D x M)

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on
a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal and "M" refers to the actual
number of days in the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Federal Funds
Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the
interest rate calculated with reference to the Federal Funds Rate and Spread or
Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Federal Funds Rate" for
each Interest Reset Period shall be the effective rate on the second Business
Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date") for Federal Funds as published in H.15(519)
under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)". In the event that such rate is
not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date
(as defined above) pertaining to such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date, the
"Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the rate on such
Federal Funds Rate Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update
under the heading "Federal Funds/Effective Rate". If by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published in either
H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update, then the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date
made publicly available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York which is
equivalent to the rate which appears in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal
Funds (Effective)"; provided, however, that if such rate is not made publicly
available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset
Period will be the same as the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the immediately
preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there is no such Interest Reset Period,
the Initial Interest Rate). If this Note resets daily, the interest rate on this
Note for the period from and including a Monday to but excluding the succeeding
Monday will be reset by the Calculation Agent on such second Monday (or, if not
a

                                       6

<PAGE>

Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) to a rate equal to the
average of the Federal Funds Rates in effect with respect to each such day in
such week.

Determination of LIBOR

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR, this Note
will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to LIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any,
specified on the face hereof. "LIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be
determined by the Calculation Agent as follows

                  On the second London Business Day prior to the Interest Reset
Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), the
Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for
deposits in the Specified Currency for the period of the Index Maturity
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appear on the
Designated LIBOR Page at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR
Determination Date. "Designated LIBOR Page" means either (a) if "LIBOR Telerate"
is designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, the display designated as page "3750" on the Telerate
Service ("Telerate") (or such other page as may replace page "3750" on such
service or such other service as may be nominated by the British Bankers'
Association for the purpose of displaying the London interbank offered rates of
major banks), and LIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant
offered rate as determined by the Calculation Agent or (b) if "LIBOR Reuters" is
designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, "Designated LIBOR Page" means the arithmetic mean determined
by the Calculation Agent of the two or more offered rates on the display
designated as page "LIBO" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such
other page as may replace the LIBO page on such service or such other service as
may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of
displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks). If neither LIBOR
Reuters nor LIBOR Telerate is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, LIBOR will be determined as if
LIBOR Telerate had been specified.

                  If LIBOR cannot be determined as described above (either
because the Designated LIBOR Page is no longer available or because fewer than
two offered rates appear on the Designated LIBOR Page on the LIBOR Determination
Date), the Calculation Agent will determine "LIBOR" as follows. The Calculation
Agent will request the principal London offices of each of the four major banks
in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to provide the
Calculation Agent with its offered quotations for deposits in the Specified
Currency for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such
Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date, in a
principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or its approximate
equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency, that is representative of a single
transaction in such market at such time. If two or more such quotations are
provided, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of
such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic

                                       7

<PAGE>

mean of rates quoted by three major banks in The City of New York selected by
the Calculation Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York city time, on the
LIBOR Determination Date for loans in the Specified Currency to leading European
banks for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such
Interest Reset Date, in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least
$1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency that
is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time; provided,
however, that if fewer than three banks selected as aforesaid by the Calculation
Agent are quoting rates as mentioned in this sentence. "LIBOR" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as LIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest
Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the LIBOR Rate
will be the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of Treasury Rate

                  If the Base Rate specified in the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or
Treasury Rate Constant Maturity, this Note will bear interest for each Interest
Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Treasury Rate
and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if an, specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Unless "Treasury
Rate Constant Maturity" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Treasury Rate" for each
Interest Reset Period will be the rate for the auction held on the Treasury Rate
Determination Date (as defined below) for such Interest Reset Period of direct
obligations of the United States ("Treasury Securities") that have the Index
Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith, as such rate appears on either Telerate page 56 or
Telerate page 57 under the heading "AVGE INVEST YIELD." The following procedures
will be followed if the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as described above.
If not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date
pertaining to the Treasury Rate Determination Date, the "Treasury Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period will be the auction average rate (expressed as a bond
equivalent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied
on a daily basis) on the Treasury Rate Determination Date as otherwise announced
by the United States Department of the Treasury. In the event that the results
of the auction of Treasury Securities having the Index Maturity specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith
are not published or reported as provided above by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, or if no such auction is held on the Treasury
Rate Determination Date, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period
shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be a yield to maturity
(expressed as a bond equivalent 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
the Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three leading primary United States
government securities dealers selected by the Calculation Agent for the issue of
Treasury Securities with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid
by the Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this
sentence, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period
(or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial Interest Rate).

                                       8

<PAGE>

                  The "Treasury Rate Determination Date" for each Interest Reset
Period will be the day of the week in which the Interest Reset Date for such
Interest Reset Period falls on which Treasury Securities would normally be
auctioned. Treasury Securities are normally sold at auction on Monday of each
week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally
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 Rate Determination Date
pertaining to the Interest Reset Period commencing in the next succeeding week.
If an auction date shall fall on any day that would otherwise be an Interest
Reset Date for a Note whose Base Rate is the Treasury Rate, then such Interest
Reset Date shall instead be the Business Day immediately following such auction
date.

                  If "Treasury Rate Constant Maturity" is specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the
"Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate displayed on the
Designated CMT Telerate Rate Page under the caption ". . .Treasury Constant
Maturities...Federal Reserve Board Release H.15. . .Mondays Approximately 3:45
P.M.," under the column for the Designated CMT Maturity Index for (1) if the
Designated CMT Telerate Page is 7051, the rate on such Constant Maturity
Treasury Rate Determination Date and (2) if the Designated CMT Telerate Page is
7052, the weekly or monthly average, as specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, for the week or the
month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as
applicable, in which the related Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination
Date occurs.

                  The following procedures will be followed if such rate does
not appear on such Designated CMT Telerate Page. If such rate is no longer
displayed on the relevant page or is not displayed by 3:00 P.M., New York City
time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate for the Constant
Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be such treasury constant
maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as published in the relevant
H.15(519). If such rate is no longer published or is not published by 3:00 P.M.,
New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate for
the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be such treasury
constant maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index, or other United
States Treasury Rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index, for the Constant
Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date with respect to such Interest Reset
Date as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the
Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate formerly displayed on
the Designated CMT Telerate Page and published in the relevant H.15(519). If
such information is not provided by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the
related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity
Treasury Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent,
and shall be a yield to maturity, based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary
market closing offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City
time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date reported,
according to their written records, by three leading U.S. government securities
dealers in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, one of which
may be the Agent, from five such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent and
eliminating the highest quotation, or in the event of equality, one of the
highest, and the lowest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the
lowest, for the most recently issued direct noncallable fixed rate obligations
of the United States ("Treasury Notes"), with an original

                                       9

<PAGE>

maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining term
to maturity of not less than such Designated CMT Maturity Index minus one year.

                  If the Calculation Agent is unable to obtain three such
Treasury Note quotations, the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury
Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent, and shall
be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market
offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the
Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date of three leading U.S.
government securities dealers in the City of New York, one of which may be the
Agent, from five such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent and eliminating
the highest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the highest, and the
lowest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for Treasury
Notes with an original maturity of the number of years that is the next highest
to the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining maturity closest to the
Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, and in an amount that is representative
for a single transaction in that market at that time.

                  If three or four, and not five, of such dealers are quoting as
described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of
the offer prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes
will be eliminated. However, if fewer than three dealers so selected by the
Calculation Agent are quoting as mentioned above, the Treasury Rate determined
as of the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be the
Treasury Rate in effect on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination
Date. If two Treasury Notes with an original maturity as described in the third
preceding sentence have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the
Designated CMT Maturity Index, the Calculation Agent will obtain quotations for
the Treasury Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity and will use such
quotations to calculate the Treasury Rate as set forth above.

                  "Designated CMT Telerate Page " means the display on the
Telerate, or any successor service on the page specified in the applicable
pricing supplement, or any other page as may replace such page on that service,
or any successor service, for the purpose of displaying Treasury Constant
Maturities as reported in H.15(519). If no such page is specified in the
applicable pricing supplement, the Designated CMT Telerate Page shall be 7052,
for the most recent week.

                  "Designated CMT Maturity Index" means the original period to
maturity of the U.S. Treasury securities, either one, two, three, five, seven,
ten, twenty or thirty years, specified in the applicable pricing supplement with
respect to which the Treasury Rate will be calculated. If no such maturity is
specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the Designated CMT Maturity
Index shall be two years.

                  "The Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date" shall
be the second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for the applicable
Interest Reset Period.

Determination of Prime Rate

                  Prime Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rates
(calculated with reference to the Prime Rate and the Spread and/or Spread
Multiplier, if any) specified in the Prime Rate Notes and in the applicable
pricing supplement.

                  The "Prime Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be
determined by the Calculation Agent for such Prime Rate Note as of the second
Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a
"Prime Rate Determination Date") and shall be the rate made available and
subsequently published on such date in H.15(519) under the heading "Bank Prime
Loan." In the event that such rate is not published prior to 9:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the Calculation Date (as defined above) pertaining to such Prime
Rate Determination Date, then the Prime Rate for such Interest reset Period
shall be the rate published in the H.15 Daily Update under the heading "Bank
Prime Loan." In the event that such rate has not been published prior to 3:00
P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date in either H.15(519) or the
H.15 Daily Update, the Prime Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent
and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by
each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page (as defined below) as
such bank's prime rate or base lending rate as in effect for the Prime Rate
Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates appear on the Reuters Screen
USPRIME1 Page for the Prime Rate Determination Date, the rate shall be the
arithmetic mean of the prime rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of
days in the year divided by 360 as of the close of business on the Prime Rate
Determination Date by four major banks in The City of New York selected by the
Calculation Agent. If all four of the banks selected by the Calculation Agent do
not provide such quotations, the Prime Rate will be calculated by the
Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the four-prime rates quoted
on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year
as of the close of business on the Prime Rate Determination Date as furnished in
The City of New York by the banks selected by the Calculation Agent that have
provided such quotations and by a reasonable number of substitute banks or trust
companies. Each such substitute bank or trust company selected by the
Calculation Agent to provide such rate or rates must (1) be organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States, or any State of the United States,
(2) have total equity capital of at least $500,000,000 and (3) be subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. However, if the banks
or trust companies so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as
mentioned in the previous sentence, the Prime Rate will be the Prime Rate in
effect on the Prime Rate Determination Date.

                  "Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page" means the display designated as
page "USPRIME1" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service, (or such other page
as may replace the USPRIME1 page on that service for the purpose of displaying
prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks).


Determination of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate

                  Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes will bear interest
at the interest rates (calculated by reference to the Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Rate and the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any) specified in the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes and in the applicable pricing
supplement.

                                       11

<PAGE>
                  The "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate," for each Interest
Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent for such Eleventh
District Cost of Funds Rate Note as of the last working day of the month
immediately prior to such Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period on
which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the "FHLB of San Francisco")
publishes the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index (as defined below) (the
"Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date"), and shall be the
rate equal to the monthly weighted average cost of funds for the calendar month
preceding such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date as set
forth under the caption "Eleventh District" on the Telerate page 7058 (which
page shall include any successor page (as determined by the Calculation Agent))
as of 11:00 a.m., San Francisco time, on such Eleventh District Cost of Funds
Rate Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate page 7058 on
any related Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date, the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds
Rate Determination Date shall be the monthly weighted average cost of funds paid
by member institutions of the Eleventh Federal Home Loan Bank District that was
most recently announced (the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Index") by
the FHLB of San Francisco as such cost of funds for the calendar month preceding
the date of such announcement. If the FHLB of San Francisco fails to announce
such rate for the calendar month next preceding such Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Rate Determination Date, then the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for
such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date will be the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate in effect on such Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Rate Determination Date.

Determination of EURIBOR

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is EURIBOR, this Note
will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to EURIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if
any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith. "EURIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be
determined by the Calculation Agent as follows.

                  On the second TARGET Business Day prior to the Interest Reset
Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "EURIBOR Determination Date"), the
Calculation Agent for such EURIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for
deposits in Euros as sponsored, calculated and published jointly by the European
Banking Federation and ACI--The Financial Market Association, or any company
established by the joint sponsors for purposes of compiling and publishing those
rates, for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such
Interest Reset Date, which appears on the Designated EURIBOR Page as of 11:00
a.m., Brussels time, on such EURIBOR Determination Date. "Designated EURIBOR
Page" means the display designated as page "248" on Telerate (or any successor
service or such other page as may replace page "248" on such service), and
EURIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant offered rates as
determined by the Calculation Agent.

                  If EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above the
Calculation Agent will determine "EURIBOR" as follows. The Calculation Agent
will request the principal Euro-zone (as defined below) office of each of four
major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market selected

                                       12

<PAGE>
by the Calculation Agent to provide the Calculation Agent with their respective
offered quotations for deposits in Euros for the period of the Index Maturity
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in
the Euro-zone interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on
the EURIBOR Determination Date, in a principal amount equal to an amount of at
least $1,000,000 or its approximate equivalent thereof in Euros that is
representative of a single transaction in such market at such time. If two or
more such quotations are provided, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will
be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If less than two such quotations are
provided, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean
of rates quoted by four major banks in the Euro-zone selected by the Calculation
Agent for such EURIBOR Note at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the
EURIBOR Determination Date for loans in Euros to leading European banks for the
period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest
Reset Date, in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or
the approximate equivalent thereof in Euros that is representative of a single
transaction in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks so
selected a aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as mentioned
in this sentence, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be same as
EURIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no
such Interest Reset Period, the EURIBOR Rate will be the Initial Interest Rate).

                  "Euro-zone" means the region comprised of member states of the
European Union that adopt the single currency in accordance with the Treaty
establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union.

Inverse Floating Rate Notes

                  If this Note is designated as an Inverse Floating Rate Note on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith, the Inverse Floating Rate shall be equal to (i) in the case of the
period, if any, commencing on the Original Issue Date (or such other date which
may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith as the date on which this Note shall begin to accrue
interest), up to the first Interest Reset Date, the Initial Fixed Interest Rate
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, and (ii) in the case of each period commencing on an
Interest Reset Date, the Reset Fixed Reference Rate specified on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith minus the
interest rate determined by reference to the Base Rate specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as
adjusted by the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any, as determined in
accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that (x) the interest
rate thereon will not be less than zero and (y) the interest rate in effect for
the ten days immediately prior to the date of Stated Maturity will be the rate
in effect on the tenth day preceding such date.

Floating Rate / Fixed Rate Notes

                  If this Note is designated as a Floating Rate / Fixed Rate
Note, this Note will be a Floating Rate note for a specified portion of its term
and a Fixed Rate Note for the remainder of


                                       13

<PAGE>
its term, in which event the interest rate on this Note will be determined as
provided herein as if it were a Floating Rate Note and a Fixed Rate Note
hereunder for each such respective period, all as described herein and in the
applicable pricing supplement.

Subsequent Interest Periods

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Spread, Spread Multiplier
or method of calculation of the Interest Rate on this Note may be reset by the
Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Optional Reset
Date"). The Company may reset the Spread, Spread Multiplier or method of
calculation of the Interest Rate Interest Rate by notifying the Trustee for this
Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to each Optional Reset Date.
Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee will mail
to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"), first class, postage
prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the Spread, Spread
Multiplier or method of calculation of the Interest Rate, and if so, (i) such
new Spread, Spread Multiplier or method of calculation of the Interest Rate and
(ii) 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 the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the
Trustee of a Reset Notice to the Holder of a Note, such new Spread, Spread
Multiplier or method of calculation of the Interest Rate shall take effect
automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below,
such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset
Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the
Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread or Spread
Multiplier provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Spread or
Spread Multiplier for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to
mail notice of such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier, first class, postage
prepaid, to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All
Registered Notes with respect to which the Spread or Spread Multiplier is reset
on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier.

                  The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect
repayment of the Note by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price
equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional
Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder
must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that
the period for delivery 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 if the
Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the
Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment
until the close of business on the tenth day before the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

                  If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, then certain or all
interest payments, in the case of an Indexed Rate Note, and/or the principal
amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement, in the
case of an Indexed Principal Note, is determined by


                                       14

<PAGE>
reference to the amount designated on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the Face Amount of this Note
and by reference to the Index as described on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is an Indexed
Principal Note, the amount of any interest payment will be determined by
reference to the Face Amount described on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is an Indexed
Principal Note, the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or any earlier
redemption or repayment of this Note may be different from the Face Amount. If a
third party is appointed to calculate or announce the Index for a particular
Indexed Note and the third party either suspends the calculation or announcement
of such Index or changes the basis upon which such Index is calculated in a
manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing supplement, then the
Company will select another third party to calculate or announce the Index. The
agent or another affiliate of the Company may be either the original or
successor third party selected by the Company.

                  If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same
basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original
third party, then the indexed interest payments, if any, or any indexed
principal amount of this Note shall be calculated in the manner set forth in the
applicable pricing supplement. Any determination of such third party shall in
the absence of manifest error be binding on all parties.

Specified Currency

                  If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the
amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be
determined by the Company or its agent based on the highest firm bid quotation
expressed in U.S. dollars received by the Company or its agent at approximately
11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the
applicable payment date (or, if no such rate is quoted on such date, the last
date on which such rate was quoted) from three (or, if three are not available,
then two) recognized foreign exchange dealers in The City of New York selected
by the Exchange Rate Agent (one or more of which may be an agent involved in the
distribution of the Notes (an "Agent") and another 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 all Registered Notes denominated in such Specified
Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such
Registered Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are
available, then such payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the
Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or
to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will
be made as described in the next paragraph.

Payments in Currencies other than the Specified Currency

                  Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is
required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such
currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or 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 such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency
is again available or so used. The


                                       15

<PAGE>
amount so payable in such foreign currency shall be converted into U.S. dollars
on the basis of the most recently available Market Exchange Rate for such
currency or as otherwise indicated on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any payment made under such
circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under the
Indenture.

                  In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified
Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but
including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified
Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note 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. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any
amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the
Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to
fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component
currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself
officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a
country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described
in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the
following paragraph.

                  Certain of the foreign currencies in which debt securities may
be denominated or payments in respect of index warrants may be due or by which
amounts due on the offered securities may be calculated could be issued by
countries participating in Stage III of the European Economic and Monetary
Union. Stage III began on January 1, 1999 for the eleven participating member
states of the European Union that satisfied the economic convergence criteria in
the Treaty on European Union: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany,
Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Greece became a
participating member state on January 1, 2001.

                  Stage III includes the introduction of the "Euro," which,
along with the present national currency of each participating member state, is
legal tender in the participating member states.

Dual Currency Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the
Company may have a one time option of making all payments of principal, premium,
if any, and interest on all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and
having the same terms (a "Tranche"), which payments would otherwise be made in
the Specified Currency of such Notes, in an optional currency (the "Optional
Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on
an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the dates specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

                  If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in
the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange
Rate specified on the face



                                       16

<PAGE>
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If
such election is made, notice of such election shall be mailed in accordance
with the terms of the applicable Tranche of Dual Currency Notes within two
Business Days of the Option Election Date and shall state (i) the first date,
whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated Maturity, in which scheduled
payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be made and (ii) the Designated
Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once given, may not be withdrawn.
The equivalent value in the Specified Currency of payments made after such an
election may be less, at the then current exchange rate, than if the Company had
made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note
will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth
month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity
Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in
accordance with the following procedures:

                  On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month
(unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal
Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the
last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date
(each, together with the Initial Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of
this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth
month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in
a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date,
if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion
thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of
any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period
prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the
Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the
Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

                  The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so
specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the
Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of
the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15
nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon
each subsequent Holder of this Note. An election to renew the term of this Note
may be exercised with respect to less than the entire principal amount of this
Note only if so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith and then only in such principal amount, or
any integral multiple in excess thereof, as is specified on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the term of this Note may not be extended beyond the Stated
Maturity specified for this Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith.



                                       17

<PAGE>
                  If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must
be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as
practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed
paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a
Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note
for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms
identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall
have a fixed, nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if
an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount
of such Holder's Note, the Trustee or any duly appointed paying agent shall
issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such Holder a replacement
Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such
exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise
identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Stated Maturity

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Stated Maturity of this
Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of
whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five years
up to but not beyond the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The
Company may exercise such option by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least
45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If
the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this
Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the
"Extension Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating (i) the election
of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity,
(iii) the Spread or Spread Multiplier applicable to the Extension Period, and
(iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such 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 Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity
of this Note shall be extended automatically 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 Notice.

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

                  If the Company extends the Stated Maturity of this Note, the
Holder will have the option to elect repayment of this Note by the Company on
the old Stated Maturity at a price equal to the principal amount hereof, plus
interest accrued to such date. In order to obtain repayment on such old Stated
Maturity once the Company has extended the Stated Maturity hereof, the Holder
must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that

                                       18

<PAGE>
the period for delivery or notification to the Trustee shall be at least 25 but
not more than 35 days before the old Stated Maturity, and except that if the
Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to an Extension Notice, the
Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment
until the close of business on the tenth calendar day before the old Stated
Maturity.

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its
option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an
"Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption
Price") (together with accrued interest to such Optional Redemption Date)
specified herein. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee shall mail to the
Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage prepaid, at least 30
days prior to the date of redemption. Unless otherwise stated herein, the
Company may exercise such option with respect to a redemption of this Note in
part only by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45 days prior to any
Optional Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only,
a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued to the
Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will be repayable
prior to Stated Maturity at the option of the Holder on the Optional Repayment
Dates shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith at the Optional Repayment Prices shown on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, together with
accrued interest to the date of repayment. In order for this Note to be repaid,
the Trustee must receive at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an
Optional Repayment Date (i) this Note with the form below entitled "Option to
Elect Repayment" duly completed; or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile
transmission or 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 of America setting forth the name of the Holder of
this 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 thereby and a guarantee that this
Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed
will be received by the Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date
of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. If the procedure
described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is followed, this Note with
form duly completed must be received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day.
Any tender of this Note for repayment (except pursuant to a Reset Notice or an
Extension Notice) shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised by
the Holder of this Note for less than the entire principal amount of the Note;
provided that the principal amount of this Note remaining outstanding after
repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial repayment, this Note
shall be canceled and a new Note or Notes for the remaining principal amount
hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Note.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will not be

                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if this Note
is a Discount Note, the amount payable in the event of redemption or repayment
prior to the Stated Maturity hereof (other than pursuant to an optional
redemption by the Company at a stated Redemption Price), in lieu of the
principal amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, shall be the Amortized Face
Amount of this Note as of the redemption date or the date of repayment, as the
case may be. The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be the
amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith plus (ii) that portion
of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of
such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set
forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith or (y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United
States bond yield computation principles); provided, however, that in no event
shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount.
The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith shall be computed on the basis
of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and
the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note
is not redeemed on such first occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield
to Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional
Redemption Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and
the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so
recomputed on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so
redeemed.

                  The Company may at any time purchase Registered Notes at any
price in the open market or otherwise. Registered Notes so purchased by the
Company may, at the discretion of the Company, be held or resold or surrendered
to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation.

Other Terms

                  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Registered Notes of different authorized denominations, as
requested by the Person surrendering the same.

                  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable on the
Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration
of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan,
the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written
instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security
Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Registered Notes of
this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

                  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 governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                  If an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of
this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all the Debt
Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in this manner and
with the effect provided in the Indenture.

                  In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated,
destroyed, stolen or lost and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft, or
destruction hereof (together with such indemnity and such other documents or
proof as may be required by the Company or the Trustee) shall be delivered to
the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee or the agent of the Company
or Trustee a new Registered Note of like tenor and principal amount will be
issued by the Company in exchange for, or in lieu of, this Note. All expenses
and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the
preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Registered Note shall be borne
by the Holder of 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 Debt Securities
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 a majority in

series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the
Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Debt
Securities of any series at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all the Debt Securities 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 Debt Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all
future Holders of this Debt Security and of any Debt Security issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon the Debt Security.

                  Holders of Debt Securities may not enforce their rights
pursuant to the Indenture or the Note except as provided in the Indenture. 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, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed.

                  This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made and to be
performed solely in the State of New York and for all purposes be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of said State without regard to the
conflicts of law rules of said State.

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

                  CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS HOLDINGS INC., a corporation duly
organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York (herein referred
to as the "Company"), for value received hereby promises to pay CEDE & Co. or
registered assigns (a) the Principal Amount or, in the case of an Indexed
Principal Note, the Face Amount adjusted by reference to prices, changes in
prices, or differences between prices, of securities, currencies, intangibles,
goods, articles or commodities or by such other objective price, economic or
other measures (an "Index") as described on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, in the Specified Currency on
the Stated Maturity shown above or earlier if and to the extent so provided
herein and (b) accrued interest on the Principal Amount then outstanding (or in
the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount, then outstanding) at the
Interest Rate shown above from the Original Issue Date shown above or from the
most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
semiannually in arrears (unless otherwise set forth herein or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith) on the Interest Payment Dates
specified on the face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith and at Stated Maturity, until, in either case, the
Principal Amount then outstanding or the Face Amount is paid or duly provided
for in accordance with the terms hereof. Unless otherwise specified herein or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest on this
Note, if any, will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months or, in the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

                  The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided
for, on each Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred
to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one
or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest, which, unless otherwise specified on the
face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (and other than interest payable at Stated Maturity), shall be the date
(whether or not a Business Day) fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such
Interest Payment Date and, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity,
shall be the Stated Maturity of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest
Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue
Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date.
Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof on such Regular Record Date,
and may be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) 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 ten
days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Registered Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be
required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

                  For purposes of this Note, "Business Day" means: (i) with
respect to any Registered 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 obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii)
with respect to Registered Notes having a specified currency other than U.S.
dollars only, other than Registered Notes denominated in Euros, any day that, in
the principal

                                       3

<PAGE>

financial center (as defined below) of the country of the specified currency, is
not a day on which banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by
law to close; and (iii) with respect to Notes denominated in Euros, a day on
which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer
("TARGET") System is open (a "TARGET Business Day").

                  As used above, a "principal financial center" means the
capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with
respect to U.S. dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, and Swiss francs,
the principal financial center shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Toronto,
and Zurich, respectively.

                  The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is, to the extent set
forth in the Indenture, expressly subordinated and subject in right of payment
to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness as defined in the Indenture,
and this Note is issued subject to such provisions, and each Holder of this
Note, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions and
authorizes and directs the Trustee in his behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination as
provided in the Indenture and appoints the Trustee as his attorney-in-fact for
any and all such purposes.

                  If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or
all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in
accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an
Index (as described above).

                  The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are
payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified
Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to
convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S. dollars in the manner described
on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if so indicated above, elect to
receive all payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency by delivery of
a written notice to the Trustee not later than fifteen calendar days prior to
the applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect until revoked
by written notice to the Trustee received not later than fifteen calendar days
prior to the applicable payment date. If the Company determines that the
Specified Currency is not available for making payments in respect hereof due to
the imposition of exchange controls or 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 or within
the international banking community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to
receive payments in the Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election
shall be automatically suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until
the Company determines that the Specified Currency is again available for making
such payments.

                  Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest
payable at Stated Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register on
the applicable Record Date; provided that, if the Holder hereof is the Holder of
U.S. $10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a currency other than U.S.
dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof) or more in aggregate
principal amount of Registered Notes of like tenor and term, such U.S. dollar
interest payments will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds,
but only if appropriate wire transfer

                                       4

<PAGE>

instructions have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than fifteen
calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with
any election by the Holder hereof to receive payments in respect hereof in the
Specified Currency (if other than U.S. dollars), such Holder shall provide
appropriate wire transfer instructions to the Trustee and all such payments will
be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained
by the payee with a bank located outside the United States. The principal hereof
and any premium and interest hereon payable at Stated Maturity will be paid in
immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the corporate trust
office or agency of the Trustee located in the City and State of New York.

                  REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS
NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF AND IN ANY PRICING SUPPLEMENT ATTACHED
HERETO OR DELIVERED HEREWITH, AND SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES
HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGH FULLY SET FORTH IN THIS PLACE.

                  This Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose
unless and until this Note has been authenticated by Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas (formerly Bankers Trust Company), or its successor, as Trustee.

                  This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt
securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one
or more series under an indenture, dated as of December 1, 1988, as amended (the
"Indenture"), between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas
(formerly Bankers Trust Company), as successor trustee (the "Trustee," which
term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which indenture and
all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder
of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Debt Securities and of the
terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered. The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public offering price or purchase
price of Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars will be
determined by the Company or its agent, as exchange rate agent for the Notes
(the "Exchange Rate Agent") on the basis of the noon buying rate in New York
City for cable transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes
by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate") for such
currencies on the applicable issue dates.

                  The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000
and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S.
dollars will be the approximate equivalents thereof in the Specified Currency.

                  Each Registered Note will be issued initially as a Book-Entry
Note, and will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes, except as otherwise
provided in the Indenture or specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

Fixed Rate Notes

                  This Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date, or
from the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for, at the Interest Rate stated on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith until the principal amount
hereof is paid or made available for payment, except as otherwise described
below under "Subsequent Interest Periods" and "Extension of Stated Maturity",
and except that if so specified in the attached pricing supplement, the rate of
interest payable may be subject to adjustment as specified therein.

                  Unless otherwise set forth herein or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest on this Note will be payable
semiannually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates set forth above and at
Stated Maturity. If an Interest Payment Date with respect to any Note would
otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date

                                       1

<PAGE>

shall not be postponed; provided, however, that any payment required to be made
in respect of such Note on a date (including the day of Stated Maturity) that is
not a Business Day for such Note 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
such date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed
payment. However, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue to Pay" is
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, any Interest Payment Date with respect to such Fixed Rate
Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment
Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day.

                  Each payment of interest in respect of an Interest Payment
Date shall include interest accrued through the day before such Interest Payment
Date. Unless otherwise specified herein, interest on this Note will be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months ("30 over 360") or, in
the case of an incomplete month, the number of days elapsed.

Subsequent Interest Periods

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest Rate on this Note
may be reset by the Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an
"Optional Reset Date"). The Company may reset the Interest Rate by notifying the
Trustee for this Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to each
Optional Reset Date. Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date,
the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"),
first class, postage prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to
reset the Interest Rate, and if so, (i) such new Interest Rate and (ii) 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
the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the Trustee of a Reset
Notice to the Holder of a Note, such new Interest Rate shall take effect
automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below,
such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset
Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the
Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Interest Rate
provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Interest Rate for the
Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher
Interest Rate, first class, postage prepaid, to the Holder of this Note. Such
notice shall be irrevocable. All Registered Notes with respect to which the
Interest Rate is reset on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Interest
Rate.

                  The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect
repayment of the Note by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price
equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional
Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder
must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that
the period for delivery 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 if the
Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the
Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke

                                       2

<PAGE>

such tender for repayment until the close of business on the tenth day before
the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

                  If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, then the principal
amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement is
determined by reference to the amount designated on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as the Face Amount of
this Note and by reference to the Index as described on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is an
Indexed Principal Note, the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or any
earlier redemption or repayment of this Note may be different from the Face
Amount. If a third party is appointed to calculate or announce the Index for a
particular Indexed Note and the third party either suspends the calculation or
announcement of such Index or changes the basis upon which such Index is
calculated in a manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing
supplement, then the Company will select another third party to calculate or
announce the Index. The agent or another affiliate of the Company may be either
the original or successor third party selected by the Company.

                  If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same
basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original
third party, then the indexed principal amount of this Note shall be calculated
in the manner set forth in the applicable pricing supplement. Any determination
of such third party shall in the absence of manifest error be binding on all
parties.

Specified Currency

                  If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the
amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be
determined by the Company or its agent based on the highest firm bid quotation
expressed in U.S. dollars received by the Company or its agent at approximately
11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the
applicable payment date (or, if no such rate is quoted on such date, the last
date on which such rate was quoted) from three (or, if three are not available,
then two) recognized foreign exchange dealers in The City of New York selected
by the Exchange Rate Agent (one or more of which may be an agent involved in the
distribution of the Notes (an "Agent") and another 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 all Registered Notes denominated in such Specified
Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such
Registered Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are
available, then such payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the
Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or
to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will
be made as described in the next paragraph.

                                       3

Payments in Currencies other than the Specified Currency

                  Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is
required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such
currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or 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 such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency
is again available or so used. The amount so payable in such foreign currency
shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available
Market Exchange Rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any
payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute a
Default under the Indenture.

                  In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified
Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but
including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified
Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note 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. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any
amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the
Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to
fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component
currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself
officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a
country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described
in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the
following paragraph.

                  Certain of the foreign currencies in which debt securities may
be denominated or payments in respect of index warrants may be due or by which
amounts due on the offered securities may be calculated could be issued by
countries participating in Stage III of the European Economic and Monetary
Union. Stage III began on January 1, 1999 for the eleven participating member
states of the European Union that satisfied the economic convergence criteria in
the Treaty on European Union: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany,
Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Greece became a
participating member state on January 1, 2001.

                  Stage III includes the introduction of the "Euro," which,
along with the present national currency of each participating member state, is
legal tender in the participating member states.

Dual Currency Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the
Company may have a one time option of making all payments of principal, premium,
if any, and interest on all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and
having the same terms (a "Tranche"), which payments would

                                       4

<PAGE>

otherwise be made in the Specified Currency of such Notes, in an optional
currency (the "Optional Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in
whole but not in part on an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the
dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith.

                  If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in
the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange
Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith. If such election is made, notice of such election shall
be mailed in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tranche of Dual
Currency Notes within two Business Days of the Option Election Date and shall
state (i) the first date, whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated
Maturity, in which scheduled payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be
made and (ii) the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once
given, may not be withdrawn. The equivalent value in the Specified Currency of
payments made after such an election may be less, at the then current exchange
rate, than if the Company had made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note
will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth
month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity
Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in
accordance with the following procedures:

                  On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month
(unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal
Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the
last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date
(each, together with the Initial Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of
this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth
month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in
a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date,
if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion
thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of
any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period
prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the
Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the
Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

                  The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so
specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the
Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of
the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15
nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon
each subsequent Holder of this Note.

                                       5

<PAGE>

An election to renew the term of this Note may be exercised with respect to less
than the entire principal amount of this Note only if so specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and
then only in such principal amount, or any integral multiple in excess thereof,
as is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term of this Note may
not be extended beyond the Stated Maturity specified for this Note on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

                  If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must
be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as
practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed
paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a
Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note
for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms
identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall
have a fixed, nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if
an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount
of such Holder's Note, the Trustee, or any duly appointed paying agent, shall
issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such Holder a replacement
Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such
exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise
identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Stated Maturity

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Stated Maturity of this
Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of
whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five years
up to but not beyond the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The
Company may exercise such option by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least
45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If
the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this
Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the
"Extension Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating (i) the election
of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity,
(iii) the Interest Rate applicable to the Extension Period, and (iv) the
provisions, if any, for redemption during such 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
Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity of this Note
shall be extended automatically 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 Notice.

                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to
the old Stated Maturity of this Note, the Company may, at its option, revoke the
Interest Rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher
Interest Rate for the Extension Period by causing the Trustee to mail notice of
such higher Interest Rate, first class, postage prepaid, to the Holder of this
Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Registered Notes with respect to
which the

                                       6

<PAGE>

Stated Maturity is extended will bear such higher Interest Rate for the
Extension Period, whether or not tendered for repayment.

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

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its
option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an
"Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption
Price") (together with accrued interest to such Optional Redemption Date)
specified herein. If required under the Federal Reserve Capital Adequacy Rules,
the Company will obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve before
exercising its redemption rights. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee
shall mail to the Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage
prepaid, at least 30 days prior to the date of redemption. Unless otherwise
stated herein, the Company may exercise such option with respect to a redemption
of this Note in part only by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45
days prior to any Optional Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this
Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof will be
issued to the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will be repayable
prior to Stated Maturity at the option of the Holder on the Optional Repayment
Dates shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith at the Optional Repayment Prices shown on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, together with
accrued interest to the date of repayment. In order for this Note to be repaid,
the Trustee must receive at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an
Optional Repayment Date (i) this Note with the form below entitled "Option to
Elect Repayment" duly completed; or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile
transmission or 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 of America setting forth the name of the Holder of
this 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 thereby and a guarantee that this
Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed
will be received by the Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date
of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. If the procedure
described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is followed, this Note with
form duly completed must be received by the Trustee by such fifth

                                       7

<PAGE>

Business Day. Any tender of this Note for repayment (except pursuant to a Reset
Notice or an Extension Notice) shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be
exercised by the Holder of this Note for less than the entire principal amount
of the Note; provided that the principal amount of this Note remaining
outstanding after repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial
repayment, this Note shall be canceled and a new Note or Notes for the remaining
principal amount hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Note.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will not be
subject to any sinking fund.

                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if this Note
is a Discount Note, the amount payable in the event of redemption or repayment
prior to the Stated Maturity hereof (other than pursuant to an optional
redemption by the Company at a stated Redemption Price), in lieu of the
principal amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, shall be the Amortized Face
Amount of this Note as of the redemption date or the date of repayment, as the
case may be. The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be the
amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith plus (ii) that portion
of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of
such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set
forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith or (y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United
States bond yield computation principles); provided, however, that in no event
shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount.
The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith shall be computed on the basis
of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and
the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note
is not redeemed on such first occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield
to Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional
Redemption Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and
the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so
recomputed on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so
redeemed.

                  The Company may at any time purchase Registered Notes at any
price in the open market or otherwise. Registered Notes so purchased by the
Company may, at the discretion of the Company, be held or resold or surrendered
to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation.

Other Terms

                  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Registered Notes of different authorized denominations, as
requested by the Person surrendering the same.

                  As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable on the
Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration
of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan,
the City and State of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written

                                       8

<PAGE>

instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company, the Security
Registrar and the Trustee duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney
duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Registered Notes of
this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

                  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 governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

                  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 Holder hereof
for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company,
the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

                  If an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of
this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all the Debt
Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in this manner and
with the effect provided in the Indenture.

                  In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated,
destroyed, stolen or lost and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft, or
destruction hereof (together with such indemnity and such other documents or
proof as may be required by the Company or the Trustee) shall be delivered to
the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee or the agent of the Company
or Trustee, a new Registered Note of like tenor and principal amount will be
issued by the Company in exchange for, or in lieu of, this Note. All expenses
and reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the
preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Registered Note shall be borne
by the Holder of 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 Debt Securities
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 a majority in
aggregate principal amount of Debt Securities at the time outstanding of each
series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the
Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Debt
Securities of any series at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all the Debt Securities 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 Debt Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all
future Holders of this Debt Security and of any Debt Security issued upon the
registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon the Debt Security.

                  Holders of Debt Securities may not enforce their rights
pursuant to the Indenture or the Note except as provided in the Indenture. 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,

                                       9

<PAGE>

which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if
any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.

                  This Note shall be deemed to be a contract made and to be
performed solely in the State of New York and for all purposes be governed by,
and construed in accordance with, the laws of said State without regard to the
conflicts of law rules of said State.

                  CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS HOLDINGS INC., a corporation duly
organized and existing under the laws of the State of New York (herein referred
to as the "Company"), for value received hereby promises to pay CEDE & Co. or
registered assigns (a) the Principal Amount or, in the case of an Indexed
Principal Note, the Face Amount adjusted by reference to prices, changes in
prices, or differences between prices, of securities, currencies, intangibles,
goods, articles or commodities or by such other objective price, economic or
other measures (an "Index") as described on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, in the Specified Currency on
the Stated Maturity shown above or earlier if and to the extent so provided
herein, and (b) accrued interest on the Principal Amount then outstanding (or,
in the case of an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount then outstanding): (i)
if this is a Floating Rate Note, at the Initial Interest Rate shown above from
the Original Issue Date shown above until the first Interest Reset Date shown
above following the Original Issue Date and thereafter at the Base Rate shown
above, adjusted by the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, shown above,
determined in accordance with the provisions hereof, (ii) if this is an Indexed
Rate Note, at a rate determined by reference to an Index as described herein,
(iii) if this is an Inverse Floating Rate Note, at the Initial Interest Rate
shown above from the Original Issue Date shown above until the first Interest
Reset Date shown above following the Original Issue Date and thereafter at the
Inverse Floating Rate, as determined in accordance with the provisions hereof,
or (iv) if this is a Floating Rate / Fixed Rate Note, at a rate determined as
described herein, until, in each case, the Principal Amount or the Face Amount
then outstanding is paid or duly provided for in accordance with the terms
hereof.

                  The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided
for, on each Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred
to on the reverse hereof, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one
or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest, which, unless otherwise specified on the
face of this Note or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (and other than interest payable at Stated Maturity), shall be the date
(whether or not a Business Day) fifteen calendar days immediately preceding such
Interest Payment Date and, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity,
shall be the Stated Maturity of this Note. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if
this Note is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest
Payment Date, the interest so payable for the period from the Original Issue
Date to such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Interest
Payment Date to the Registered Holder hereof on the related Regular Record Date.
Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Registered Holder hereof on such Regular Record Date,
and may be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) 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 ten
days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Registered Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be
required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

                  For purposes of this Note, "Business Day" means: (i) with
respect to any Registered 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 obligated by law or executive order to close; (ii)
with respect to LIBOR Notes only, any such day on which dealings in deposits

                                       4

<PAGE>

in the specified currency are transacted in the London interbank market (a
"London Business Day"); (iii) with respect to Registered Notes having a
specified currency other than U.S. dollars only, other than Registered Notes
denominated in Euros, any day that, in the principal financial center (as
defined below) of the country of the specified currency, is not a day on which
banking institutions generally are authorized or obligated by law to close; and
(iv) with respect to EURIBOR Notes and Notes denominated in Euros, a day on
which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer
("TARGET") System is open (a "Target Business Day").

                  The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is, to the extent set
forth in the Indenture, expressly subordinated and subject in right of payment
to the prior payment in full of Senior Indebtedness as defined in the Indenture,
and this Note is issued subject to such provisions, and each Holder of this
Note, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions and
authorizes and directs the Trustee in his behalf to take such action as may be
necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination as
provided in the Indenture and appoints the Trustee as his attorney-in-fact for
any and all such purposes.

                  As used above, a "principal financial center" means the
capital city of the country issuing the specified currency. However, with
respect to U.S. dollars, Australian dollars, Canadian dollars, and Swiss francs,
the principal financial center shall be The City of New York, Sydney, Toronto,
and Zurich, respectively.

                  If this Note is an Amortizing Note as shown on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, a portion or
all the principal amount of the Note is payable prior to Stated Maturity in
accordance with a schedule, by application of a formula, or by reference to an
Index (as described above).

                  The principal hereof and any premium and interest hereon are
payable by the Company in the Specified Currency shown above. If the Specified
Currency shown above is other than U.S. dollars, the Company will arrange to
convert all payments in respect hereof into U.S. dollars in the manner described
on the reverse hereof. The Holder hereof may, if so indicated above, elect to
receive all payments in respect hereof in the Specified Currency by delivery of
a written notice to the Trustee not later than fifteen calendar days prior to
the applicable payment date. Such election will remain in effect until revoked
by written notice to the Trustee received not later than fifteen calendar days
prior to the applicable payment date. If the Company determines that the
Specified Currency is not available for making payments in respect hereof due to
the imposition of exchange controls or 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 or within
the international banking community, then the Holder hereof may not so elect to
receive payments in the Specified Currency, and any such outstanding election
shall be automatically suspended, and payments shall be in U.S. dollars, until
the Company determines that the Specified Currency is again available for making
such payments.

                  Payments of interest in U.S. dollars (other than interest
payable at Stated Maturity) will be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Security Register on
the applicable Record Date; provided that, if the

                                       5

<PAGE>

Holder hereof is the Holder of U.S. $10,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in a
currency other than U.S. dollars determined as provided on the reverse hereof)
or more in aggregate principal amount of Registered Notes of like tenor and
term, such U.S. dollar interest payments will be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, but only if appropriate wire transfer instructions
have been received in writing by the Trustee not less than fifteen calendar days
prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Simultaneously with any election
by the Holder hereof to receive payments in respect hereof in the Specified
Currency (if other than U.S. dollars), such Holder shall provide appropriate
wire transfer instructions to the Trustee and all such payments will be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the
payee with a bank located outside the United States. The principal hereof and
any premium and interest hereon payable at Stated Maturity will be paid in
immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the corporate trust
office or agency of the Trustee located in the City and State of New York.

                  REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS
NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF AND IN ANY PRICING SUPPLEMENT ATTACHED
HERETO OR DELIVERED HEREWITH, AND SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES
HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS THOUGH FULLY SET FORTH IN THIS PLACE.

                  This Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose
unless and until this Note has been authenticated by Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas (formerly Bankers Trust Company), or its successor, as Trustee.

General

                  This Note is one of a series of duly authorized debt
securities of the Company (the "Debt Securities") issued or to be issued in one
or more series under an indenture, dated as of December 1, 1988, as amended (the
"Indenture"), between the Company and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas
(formerly Bankers Trust Company), as trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes
any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to which indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of
the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Debt Securities and of the terms
upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.
The U.S. dollar equivalent of the public offering price or purchase price of
Notes denominated in currencies other than U.S. dollars will be determined by
the Company or its agent, as exchange rate agent for the Notes (the "Exchange
Rate Agent") on the basis of the noon buying rate in New York City for cable
transfers in foreign currencies as certified for customs purposes by the Federal
Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate") for such currencies on the
applicable issue dates.

                  The Notes are in registered form without coupons. Unless
otherwise specified in the applicable pricing supplement, the authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in U.S. dollars will be U.S.$1,000
and any larger amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000. The authorized
denominations of Registered Notes denominated in a currency other than U.S.
dollars will be the approximate equivalents thereof in the Specified Currency.

                  Each Registered Note will be issued initially as a Book-Entry
Note, and will not be exchangeable for Certificated Notes, except as otherwise
provided in the Indenture or specified in the applicable pricing supplement.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the

Floating Rate Note, this Note will bear interest from its Original Issue Date
to, but not including, the first Interest Reset Date (as defined below) at the
Initial Interest Rate set forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith. Thereafter, the interest rate hereon for
each Interest Reset Period will be determined by reference to the Base Rate
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, plus or minus the Spread, if any, or multiplied by the
Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The Base Rates that may be
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith are LIBOR, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Treasury Rate, the
Federal Funds Rate, the CD Rate, the Prime

shall be the earlier of (1) the tenth calendar day after the related Rate
Determination Date, or if any such day is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding business day or (2) the Business Day preceding the applicable
Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

                  As specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note may also have either or both of
the following (in each case expressed as a rate per annum on a simple interest
basis): (i) a maximum limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may
accrue during any interest period ("Maximum Interest Rate") and/or (ii) a
minimum limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may accrue during
any interest period ("Minimum Interest Rate"). In addition to any Maximum
Interest Rate that may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the interest rate will in no
event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law, as the same
may be modified by United States law of general application.

                  The Company will appoint, and enter into an agreement with,
agents (each, a "Calculation Agent") to calculate interest rates on this Note.
All determinations of interest rates by the Calculation Agent shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the
Holder hereof. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas (formerly Bankers Trust Company), shall be the Calculation Agent for
this Note. At the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will
provide the interest rate then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate
that will become effective on the next Interest Reset Date.

                  The interest rate hereon will be reset daily, weekly, monthly,
quarterly, semiannually or annually (such period being the "Interest Reset
Period" specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith, and the first day of each Interest Reset Period
being an "Interest Reset Date"). Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Interest
Reset Dates will be as follows: (i) if this Note resets daily, each Business
Day; (ii) if this Note (unless this Note is a Treasury Rate Note) resets weekly,
Wednesday of each week; (iii) if this Note is a Treasury Rate Note that resets
weekly, Tuesday of each week (except as provided below under "Determination of
Treasury Rate"); (iv) if this Note resets monthly, the third Wednesday of each
month (with the exception of monthly reset Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate
Notes, which reset on the first calendar day of each month); (v) if this Note is
an Eleventh District Cost of

                                       2

<PAGE>

Funds Rate Note that resets monthly, the first calendar day of each month; (vi)
if this Note resets quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and
December of each year; (vii) if this Note resets semiannually, the third
Wednesday of the two months of each year specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith; and (viii) if this
Note resets annually, the third Wednesday of the month of each year specified on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith. If an Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a
Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding
Business Day, except that, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR or EURIBOR
and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest
Reset Date shall instead be the immediately preceding Business Day. If an
auction of direct obligations of United States Treasury Bills falls on a day
that is an Interest Reset Date for Treasury Rate Notes, the Interest Reset Date
shall be the succeeding Business Day.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith and except as set forth
in the next paragraph, the interest payable hereon on each Interest Payment Date
shall be the accrued interest from and including the Original Issue Date or the
last date to which interest has been paid, as the case may be, to but excluding
such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if the interest rate is
reset daily or weekly, the interest payable hereon shall be the accrued interest
from and including the Original Issue Date or the last date to which interest
has been accrued and paid, as the case may be, to but excluding the Record Date
immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date, except that, at Stated
Maturity, the interest payable will include interest accrued to, but excluding,
the date of Stated Maturity.

If more than one Interest Reset Date occurs during any period for which accrued
interest is being calculated, accrued interest shall be calculated by
multiplying the principal amount hereof (or if this Note is an Indexed Principal
Note, the Face Amount specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith) by an accrued interest factor. Such
accrued interest factor will be computed by adding the interest factors
calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being
calculated. The interest factor (expressed as a decimal calculated to seven
decimal places without rounding) for each such day will be computed, unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith, by dividing the interest rate in effect on such
day by 360, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the Commercial
Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, the CD Rate, the Prime Rate, the Eleventh
District Cost of Funds Rate, LIBOR, or EURIBOR, or by the actual number of days
in the year, if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate. In all
other cases, accrued interest shall be calculated by multiplying the principal
amount hereof (or if this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the Face Amount
specified on the face hereof) by the interest rate in effect during the period
for which accrued interest is being calculated, and multiplying that product by
the quotient obtained by dividing the number of days in the period for which
accrued interest is being calculated by 360, if the Base Rate specified on the
face hereof is the Commercial Paper Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, the CD Rate,
the Prime Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, LIBOR, or EURIBOR, or
by the actual number of days in the year, if the Base Rate specified on the face
hereof is the Treasury Rate. For

                                       3

<PAGE>
purposes of making the foregoing calculations, the interest rate in effect on
any Interest Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such date.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, all percentages
resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest hereof will be rounded,
if necessary, to the nearest 1/100,000 of 1% (.0000001), with five
one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward, and all currency amounts
used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to the nearest
one-hundredth of a unit (with .005 of a unit being rounded upward).

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, interest will be
payable as follows: (i) if this Note resets daily, weekly or monthly (other than
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes), interest will be payable on the
third Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June,
September and December of each year, as specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith or; (ii) in the case of
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes, interest will be payable on the
first calendar day of each March, June, September and December; (iii) if this
Note resets quarterly, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of March,
June, September, and December of each year; (iv) if this Note resets
semiannually, interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of each of two
months of each year specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith; and (v) if this Note resets annually,
interest will be payable on the third Wednesday of the month of each year
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, and in each case at Stated Maturity (each such day being an
"Interest Payment Date"). If an Interest Payment Date would otherwise fall on a
day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to
the next succeeding Business Day, except that, if the Base Rate specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith
is LIBOR or EURIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar
month, such Interest Payment Date shall instead be the immediately preceding
Business Day; provided, however, if with respect to any Note for which "Accrue
to Pay" is not specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, if an Interest Payment Date with respect
to such Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest
Payment Date shall not be postponed; provided, further, that any payment
required to be made in respect of a Note that does not Accrue to Pay on a date
(including the day of Stated Maturity) that is not a Business Day for such Note
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 such date, and no additional
interest shall accrue as a result of such delayed payment.

                  Subject to applicable provisions of law and except as
specified herein, on each Interest Reset Date the rate of interest shall be the
rate determined in accordance with the provisions of the applicable heading
below.

Determination of CD Rate

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the CD Rate, this
Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the CD Rate and the Spread or Spread

                                       4

<PAGE>

Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "CD Rate" for each Interest Reset
Period shall be the rate as of the second Business Day prior to the Interest
Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "CD Rate Determination Date") for
negotiable certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith
as published in H.15(519) under the heading "CDs (Secondary Market)". In the
event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the Calculation Date (as defined above) pertaining to such CD Rate Determination
Date, then the "CD Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the rate on such
CD Rate Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit of the Index
Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith as published in the H.15 Daily Update. If by 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet
published in either H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update, then the "CD Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be
the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of 10:00 a.m., New
York City time, on such CD Rate Determination Date of three leading nonbank
dealers in negotiable U.S. dollar certificates of deposit in The City of New
York selected by the Calculation Agent for negotiable certificates of deposit of
major United States money center banks of the highest credit standing (in the
market for negotiable certificates of deposit) with a remaining maturity closest
to the Index Maturity on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith in a denomination of $5,000,000; provided, however,
that if the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not
quoting offered rates as mentioned in this sentence, the CD Rate for such
Interest Reset Period will be the same as the CD Rate for the immediately
preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period,
the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of Commercial Paper Rate

                  If the Base Rate shown on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Commercial Paper Rate,
this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to the Commercial Paper Rate and the Spread or Spread
Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Commercial Paper Rate" for each
Interest Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent as of the
second Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset
Period (a "Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date") and shall be the Money
Market Yield (as defined below) on such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date
of the rate for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as
such rate shall be published in H.15(519) under the heading "Commercial
Paper-Nonfinancial". In the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00
p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date (as defined above) pertaining
to such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate
for such Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield on such
Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of the
Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith as published in the H.15 Daily Update
under the heading "Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial". If by 3:00 p.m., New York
City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in either
H.15(519) or the H.15 Daily Update, then the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period shall be the Money Market Yield of the

                                       5

<PAGE>

arithmetic mean of the offered rates as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on
such Commercial Paper Rate Determination Date of three leading dealers of
commercial paper in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for
commercial paper of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith placed for an
industrial issuer whose bonds are rated "AA" or the equivalent by a nationally
recognized rating agency; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as
aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates as mentioned in
this sentence, the "Commercial Paper Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will
be the same as the Commercial Paper Rate for the immediately preceding Interest
Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial
Interest Rate).

                  "Money Market Yield" shall be the yield calculated in
accordance with the following formula:

           Money Market Yield = [( D x 360) / (360 - (D x M))] x 100

where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted on
a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal and "M" refers to the actual
number of days in the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Federal Funds
Rate, this Note will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the
interest rate calculated with reference to the Federal Funds Rate and Spread or
Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The "Federal Funds Rate" for
each Interest Reset Period shall be the effective rate on the second Business
Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "Federal
Funds Rate Determination Date") for Federal Funds as published in H.15(519)
under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)". In the event that such rate is
not published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date
(as defined above) pertaining to such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date, the
"Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset Period shall be the rate on such
Federal Funds Rate Determination Date as published in the H.15 Daily Update
under the heading "Federal Funds/Effective Rate". If by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, such rate is not yet published in either
H.15(519) or H.15 Daily Update, then the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest
Reset Period shall be the rate on such Federal Funds Rate Determination Date
made publicly available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York which is
equivalent to the rate which appears in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal
Funds (Effective)"; provided, however, that if such rate is not made publicly
available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, the "Federal Funds Rate" for such Interest Reset
Period will be the same as the Federal Funds Rate in effect for the immediately
preceding Interest Reset Period (or, if there is no such Interest Reset Period,
the Initial Interest Rate). If this Note resets daily, the interest rate on this
Note for the period from and including a Monday to but excluding the succeeding
Monday will be reset by the Calculation Agent on such second Monday (or, if not
a

                                       6

<PAGE>

Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day) to a rate equal to the
average of the Federal Funds Rates in effect with respect to each such day in
such week.

Determination of LIBOR

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is LIBOR, this Note
will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to LIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any,
specified on the face hereof. "LIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be
determined by the Calculation Agent as follows

                  On the second London Business Day prior to the Interest Reset
Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "LIBOR Determination Date"), the
Calculation Agent for such LIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for
deposits in the Specified Currency for the period of the Index Maturity
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appear on the
Designated LIBOR Page at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR
Determination Date. "Designated LIBOR Page" means either (a) if "LIBOR Telerate"
is designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, the display designated as page "3750" on the Telerate
Service ("Telerate") (or such other page as may replace page "3750" on such
service or such other service as may be nominated by the British Bankers'
Association for the purpose of displaying the London interbank offered rates of
major banks), and LIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant
offered rate as determined by the Calculation Agent or (b) if "LIBOR Reuters" is
designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, "Designated LIBOR Page" means the arithmetic mean determined
by the Calculation Agent of the two or more offered rates on the display
designated as page "LIBO" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such
other page as may replace the LIBO page on such service or such other service as
may be nominated by the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of
displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks). If neither LIBOR
Reuters nor LIBOR Telerate is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, LIBOR will be determined as if
LIBOR Telerate had been specified.

                  If LIBOR cannot be determined as described above (either
because the Designated LIBOR Page is no longer available or because fewer than
two offered rates appear on the Designated LIBOR Page on the LIBOR Determination
Date), the Calculation Agent will determine "LIBOR" as follows. The Calculation
Agent will request the principal London offices of each of the four major banks
in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to provide the
Calculation Agent with its offered quotations for deposits in the Specified
Currency for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such
Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at
approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Determination Date, in a
principal amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or its approximate
equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency, that is representative of a single
transaction in such market at such time. If two or more such quotations are
provided, "LIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of
such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, "LIBOR" for
such Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic

                                       7

<PAGE>

mean of rates quoted by three major banks in The City of New York selected by
the Calculation Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York city time, on the
LIBOR Determination Date for loans in the Specified Currency to leading European
banks for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, commencing on such
Interest Reset Date, in a principal amount equal to an amount of at least
$1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent thereof in the Specified Currency that
is representative of a single transaction in such market at such time; provided,
however, that if fewer than three banks selected as aforesaid by the Calculation
Agent are quoting rates as mentioned in this sentence. "LIBOR" for such Interest
Reset Period will be the same as LIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest
Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the LIBOR Rate
will be the Initial Interest Rate).

Determination of Treasury Rate

                  If the Base Rate specified in the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is the Treasury Rate or
Treasury Rate Constant Maturity, this Note will bear interest for each Interest
Reset Period at the interest rate calculated with reference to the Treasury Rate
and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if an, specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Unless "Treasury
Rate Constant Maturity" is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the "Treasury Rate" for each
Interest Reset Period will be the rate for the auction held on the Treasury Rate
Determination Date (as defined below) for such Interest Reset Period of direct
obligations of the United States ("Treasury Securities") that have the Index
Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith, as such rate appears on either Telerate page 56 or
Telerate page 57 under the heading "AVGE INVEST YIELD." The following procedures
will be followed if the Treasury Rate cannot be determined as described above.
If not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date
pertaining to the Treasury Rate Determination Date, the "Treasury Rate" for such
Interest Reset Period will be the auction average rate (expressed as a bond
equivalent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied
on a daily basis) on the Treasury Rate Determination Date as otherwise announced
by the United States Department of the Treasury. In the event that the results
of the auction of Treasury Securities having the Index Maturity specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith
are not published or reported as provided above by 3:00 p.m., New York City
time, on such Calculation Date, or if no such auction is held on the Treasury
Rate Determination Date, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period
shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be a yield to maturity
(expressed as a bond equivalent 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
the Treasury Rate Determination Date, of three leading primary United States
government securities dealers selected by the Calculation Agent for the issue of
Treasury Securities with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid
by the Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as mentioned in this
sentence, then the "Treasury Rate" for such Interest Reset Period will be the
same as the Treasury Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period
(or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the Initial Interest Rate).

                                       8

<PAGE>

                  The "Treasury Rate Determination Date" for each Interest Reset
Period will be the day of the week in which the Interest Reset Date for such
Interest Reset Period falls on which Treasury Securities would normally be
auctioned. Treasury Securities are normally sold at auction on Monday of each
week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which case the auction is normally
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 Rate Determination Date
pertaining to the Interest Reset Period commencing in the next succeeding week.
If an auction date shall fall on any day that would otherwise be an Interest
Reset Date for a Note whose Base Rate is the Treasury Rate, then such Interest
Reset Date shall instead be the Business Day immediately following such auction
date.

                  If "Treasury Rate Constant Maturity" is specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the
"Treasury Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be the rate displayed on the
Designated CMT Telerate Rate Page under the caption "...Treasury Constant
Maturities...Federal Reserve Board Release H.15...Mondays Approximately 3:45
P.M.," under the column for the Designated CMT Maturity Index for (1) if the
Designated CMT Telerate Page is 7051, the rate on such Constant Maturity
Treasury Rate Determination Date and (2) if the Designated CMT Telerate Page is
7052, the weekly or monthly average, as specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, for the week or the
month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week or month, as
applicable, in which the related Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination
Date occurs.

                  The following procedures will be followed if such rate does
not appear on such Designated CMT Telerate Page. If such rate is no longer
displayed on the relevant page or is not displayed by 3:00 P.M., New York City
time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate for the Constant
Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be such treasury constant
maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as published in the relevant
H.15(519). If such rate is no longer published or is not published by 3:00 P.M.,
New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate for
the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be such treasury
constant maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index, or other United
States Treasury Rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index, for the Constant
Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date with respect to such Interest Reset
Date as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the
Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate formerly displayed on
the Designated CMT Telerate Page and published in the relevant H.15(519). If
such information is not provided by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the
related Calculation Date, then the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity
Treasury Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent,
and shall be a yield to maturity, based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary
market closing offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City
time, on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date reported,
according to their written records, by three leading U.S. government securities
dealers in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, one of which
may be the Agent, from five such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent and
eliminating the highest quotation, or in the event of equality, one of the
highest, and the lowest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the
lowest, for the most recently issued direct noncallable fixed rate obligations
of the United States ("Treasury Notes"), with an original

                                       9

<PAGE>

maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining term
to maturity of not less than such Designated CMT Maturity Index minus one year.

                  If the Calculation Agent is unable to obtain three such
Treasury Note quotations, the Treasury Rate on the Constant Maturity Treasury
Rate Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent, and shall
be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market
offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the
Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date of three leading U.S.
government securities dealers in the City of New York, one of which may be the
Agent, from five such dealers selected by the Calculation Agent and eliminating
the highest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the highest, and the
lowest quotation, or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for Treasury
Notes with an original maturity of the number of years that is the next highest
to the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining maturity closest to the
Index Maturity specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith, and in an amount that is representative
for a single transaction in that market at that time.

                  If three or four, and not five, of such dealers are quoting as
described above, then the Treasury Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of
the offer prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of such quotes
will be eliminated. However, if fewer than three dealers so selected by the
Calculation Agent are quoting as mentioned above, the Treasury Rate determined
as of the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination Date will be the
Treasury Rate in effect on the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate Determination
Date. If two Treasury Notes with an original maturity as described in the third
preceding sentence have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the
Designated CMT Maturity Index, the Calculation Agent will obtain quotations for
the Treasury Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity and will use such
quotations to calculate the Treasury Rate as set forth above.

                  "Designated CMT Telerate Page " means the display on the
Telerate, or any successor service on the page specified in the applicable
pricing supplement, or any other page as may replace such page on that service,
or any successor service, for the purpose of displaying Treasury Constant
Maturities as reported in H.15(519). If no such page is specified in the
applicable pricing supplement, the Designated CMT Telerate Page shall be 7052,

Determination of Prime Rate

                  Prime Rate Notes will bear interest at the interest rates
(calculated with reference to the Prime Rate and the Spread and/or Spread
Multiplier, if any) specified in the Prime Rate Notes and in the applicable
pricing supplement.

                  The "Prime Rate" for each Interest Reset Period will be
determined by the Calculation Agent for such Prime Rate Note as of the second
Business Day prior to the Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period (a
"Prime Rate Determination Date") and shall be the rate made available and
subsequently published on such date in H.15(519) under the heading "Bank Prime
Loan." In the event that such rate is not published prior to 9:00 a.m., New York
City time, on the Calculation Date (as defined above) pertaining to such Prime
Rate Determination Date, then the Prime Rate for such Interest reset Period
shall be the rate published in the H.15 Daily Update under the heading "Bank
Prime Loan." In the event that such rate has not been published prior to 3:00
P.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date in either H.15(519) or the
H.15 Daily Update, the Prime Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent
and will be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by
each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page (as defined below) as
such bank's prime rate or base lending rate as in effect for the Prime Rate
Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates appear on the Reuters Screen
USPRIME1 Page for the Prime Rate Determination Date, the rate shall be the
arithmetic mean of the prime rates quoted on the basis of the actual number of
days in the year divided by 360 as of the close of business on the Prime Rate
Determination Date by four major banks in The City of New York selected by the
Calculation Agent. If all four of the banks selected by the Calculation Agent do
not provide such quotations, the Prime Rate will be calculated by the
Calculation Agent and will be the arithmetic mean of the four-prime rates quoted
on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-day year
as of the close of business on the Prime Rate Determination Date as furnished in
The City of New York by the banks selected by the Calculation Agent that have
provided such quotations and by a reasonable number of substitute banks or trust
companies. Each such substitute bank or trust company selected by the
Calculation Agent to provide such rate or rates must (1) be organized and doing
business under the laws of the United States, or any State of the United States,
(2) have total equity capital of at least $500,000,000 and (3) be subject to
supervision or examination by Federal or State authority. However, if the banks
or trust companies so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as
mentioned in the previous sentence, the Prime Rate will be the Prime Rate in
effect on the Prime Rate Determination Date.

                  "Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page" means the display designated as
page "USPRIME1" on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service, (or such other page
as may replace the USPRIME1 page on that service for the purpose of displaying
prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks).

Determination of Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate

                  Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes will bear interest
at the interest rates (calculated by reference to the Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Rate and the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any) specified in the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Notes and in the applicable pricing
supplement.



                                       11

<PAGE>
                  The "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate," for each Interest
Reset Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent for such Eleventh
District Cost of Funds Rate Note as of the last working day of the month
immediately prior to such Interest Reset Date for such Interest Reset Period on
which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the "FHLB of San Francisco")
publishes the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Index (as defined below) (the
"Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date"), and shall be the
rate equal to the monthly weighted average cost of funds for the calendar month
preceding such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date as set
forth under the caption "Eleventh District" on the Telerate page 7058 (which
page shall include any successor page (as determined by the Calculation Agent))
as of 11:00 a.m., San Francisco time, on such Eleventh District Cost of Funds
Rate Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate page 7058 on
any related Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date, the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for such Eleventh District Cost of Funds
Rate Determination Date shall be the monthly weighted average cost of funds paid
by member institutions of the Eleventh Federal Home Loan Bank District that was
most recently announced (the "Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Index") by
the FHLB of San Francisco as such cost of funds for the calendar month preceding
the date of such announcement. If the FHLB of San Francisco fails to announce
such rate for the calendar month next preceding such Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Rate Determination Date, then the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate for
such Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate Determination Date will be the
Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate in effect on such Eleventh District Cost of
Funds Rate Determination Date.

Determination of EURIBOR

                  If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith is EURIBOR, this Note
will bear interest for each Interest Reset Period at the interest rate
calculated with reference to EURIBOR and the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if
any, specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith. "EURIBOR" for each Interest Reset Period will be
determined by the Calculation Agent as follows.

                  On the second TARGET Business Day prior to the Interest Reset
Date for such Interest Reset Period (a "EURIBOR Determination Date"), the
Calculation Agent for such EURIBOR Note will determine the offered rates for
deposits in Euros for the period of the index maturity specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith,
commencing on such Interest Reset Date, which appears on the Designated EURIBOR
Page as of 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on such EURIBOR Determination Date.
"Designated EURIBOR Page" means the display designated as page "248" on Telerate
(or any successor service or such other page as may replace page "248" on such
service), and EURIBOR for such Interest Reset Period will be the relevant
offered rates as determined by the Calculation Agent.

                  If EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above the
Calculation Agent will determine "EURIBOR" as follows. The Calculation Agent
will request the principal Euro-zone (as defined below) office of each of four
major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent
to provide the Calculation Agent with their respective offered quotations for
deposits in Euros for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith,
commencing on such Interest
                                       12

<PAGE>
Reset Date, to prime banks in the Euro-zone interbank market at approximately
11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the EURIBOR Determination Date, in a principal
amount equal to an amount of at least $1,000,000 or its approximate equivalent
thereof in Euros that is representative of a single transaction in such market
at such time. If two or more such quotations are provided, "EURIBOR" for such
Interest Reset Period will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If less
than two such quotations are provided, "EURIBOR" for such Interest Reset Period
will be the arithmetic mean of rates quoted by four major banks in the Euro-zone
selected by the Calculation Agent for such EURIBOR Note at approximately 11:00
a.m., Brussels time, on the EURIBOR Determination Date for loans in Euros to
leading European banks for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith,
commencing on such Interest Reset Date, in a principal amount equal to an amount
of at least $1,000,000 or the approximate equivalent thereof in Euros that is
representative of a single transaction in such market at such time; provided,
however, that if the banks so selected a aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are
not quoting rates as mentioned in this sentence, "EURIBOR" for such Interest
Reset Period will be same as EURIBOR for the immediately preceding Interest
Reset Period (or, if there was no such Interest Reset Period, the EURIBOR Rate
will be the Initial Interest Rate).

                  "Euro-zone" means the region comprised of member states of the
European Union that adopt the single currency in accordance with the Treaty
establishing the European Community, as amended by the Treaty on European Union.

Inverse Floating Rate Notes

                  If this Note is designated as an Inverse Floating Rate Note on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith, the Inverse Floating Rate shall be equal to (i) in the case of the
period, if any, commencing on the Original Issue Date (or such other date which
may be specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith as the date on which this Note shall begin to accrue
interest), up to the first Interest Reset Date, the Initial Fixed Interest Rate
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith, and (ii) in the case of each period commencing on an
Interest Reset Date, the Reset Fixed Reference Rate specified on the face hereof
or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith minus the
interest rate determined by reference to the Base Rate specified on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, as
adjusted by the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any, as determined in
accordance with the provisions hereof; provided, however, that (x) the interest
rate thereon will not be less than zero and (y) the interest rate in effect for
the ten days immediately prior to the date of Maturity will be the rate in
effect on the tenth day preceding such date.

Floating Rate / Fixed Rate Notes

                  If this Note is designated as a Floating Rate / Fixed Rate
Note, this Note will be a Floating Rate note for a specified portion of its term
and a Fixed Rate Note for the remainder of its term, in which event the interest
rate on this Note will be determined as provided herein as if it were a Floating
Rate Note and a Fixed Rate Note hereunder for each such respective period, all
as described herein and in the applicable pricing supplement.

Subsequent Interest Periods

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Spread, Spread Multiplier
or method of calculation of the Interest Rate on this Note may be reset by the
Company on the date or dates specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Optional Reset
Date"). The Company may reset the Spread, Spread Multiplier or method of
calculation of the Interest Rate Interest Rate by notifying the Trustee for this
Note at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to each Optional Reset Date.
Not later than 40 days prior to each Optional Reset Date, the Trustee will mail
to the Holder of this Note a notice (the "Reset Notice"), first class, postage
prepaid, indicating whether the Company has elected to reset the Spread, Spread
Multiplier or method of calculation of the Interest Rate, and if so, (i) such
new Spread, Spread Multiplier or method of calculation of the Interest Rate and
(ii) 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 the Subsequent Interest Period. Upon the transmittal by the
Trustee of a Reset Notice to the Holder of a Note, such new Spread, Spread
Multiplier or method of calculation of the Interest Rate shall take effect
automatically. Except as modified by the Reset Notice and as described below,
such Note will have the same terms as prior to the transmittal of such Reset
Notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the
Optional Reset Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread or Spread
Multiplier provided for in the Reset Notice and establish a higher Spread or
Spread Multiplier for the Subsequent Interest Period by causing the Trustee to
mail notice of such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier, first class, postage
prepaid, to the Holder of this Note. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All
Registered Notes with respect to which the Spread or Spread Multiplier is reset
on an Optional Reset Date will bear such higher Spread or Spread Multiplier.

                  The Holder of this Note will have the option to elect
repayment of the Note by the Company on each Optional Reset Date at a price
equal to the principal amount hereof, plus interest accrued to such Optional
Reset Date. In order to obtain repayment on an Optional Reset Date, the Holder
must follow the procedures set forth below for optional repayment, except that
the period for delivery 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 if the
Holder has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to a Reset Notice, the
Holder may, by written notice to the Trustee, revoke such tender for repayment
until the close of business on the tenth day before the Optional Reset Date.

Indexed Notes

                  If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, then certain or all
interest payments, in the case of an Indexed Rate Note, and/or the principal
amount payable at Stated Maturity or earlier redemption or retirement, in the
case of an Indexed Principal Note, is determined by reference to the amount
designated on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith as the Face Amount of this Note and by reference to the Index
as described on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith. If this Note is an Indexed Principal Note, the amount of any
interest payment will be determined

                                       14

<PAGE>
by reference to the Face Amount described on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. If this Note is an Indexed
Principal Note, the principal amount payable at Stated Maturity or any earlier
redemption or repayment of this Note may be different from the Face Amount. If a
third party is appointed to calculate or announce the Index for a particular
Indexed Note and the third party either suspends the calculation or announcement
of such Index or changes the basis upon which such Index is calculated in a
manner that is inconsistent with the applicable pricing supplement, then the
Company will select another third party to calculate or announce the Index. The
agent or another affiliate of the Company may be either the original or
successor third party selected by the Company.

                  If for any reason such Index cannot be calculated on the same
basis and subject to the same conditions and controls as applied to the original
third party, then the indexed interest payments, if any, or any indexed
principal amount of this Note shall be calculated in the manner set forth in the
applicable pricing supplement. Any determination of such third party shall in
the absence of manifest error be binding on all parties.

Specified Currency

                  If the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, the
amount of any U.S. dollar payment to be made in respect hereof will be
determined by the Company or its agent based on the highest firm bid quotation
expressed in U.S. dollars received by the Company or its agent at approximately
11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the
applicable payment date (or, if no such rate is quoted on such date, the last
date on which such rate was quoted) from three (or, if three are not available,
then two) recognized foreign exchange dealers in The City of New York selected
by the Exchange Rate Agent (one or more of which may be an agent involved in the
distribution of the Notes (an "Agent") and another 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 all Registered Notes denominated in such Specified
Currency. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of such
Registered Notes by deductions from such payments. If no such bid quotations are
available, then such payments will be made in the Specified Currency, unless the
Specified Currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or
to other circumstances beyond the Company's control, in which case payment will
be made as described in the next paragraph.

Payments in Currencies other than the Specified Currency

                  Except as set forth below, if any payment in respect hereof is
required to be made in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such
currency is unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or 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 such payment shall be made in U.S. dollars until such currency
is again available or so used. The amount so payable in such foreign currency
shall be converted into U.S. dollars on the basis of the most recently available
Market Exchange Rate for such currency or as otherwise indicated on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Any
payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars will not constitute a
Default under the Indenture.

<PAGE>
                  In the event of an official redenomination of the Specified
Currency of this Note (other than as a result of European Monetary Union, but
including, without limitation, an official redenomination of any such Specified
Currency that is a composite currency), the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note 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. This Note does not provide for any adjustment to any
amount payable under this Note as a result of (i) any change in the value of the
Specified Currency hereof relative to any other currency due solely to
fluctuations in exchange rates or (ii) any redenomination of any component
currency of any composite currency (unless such composite currency is itself
officially redenominated). If this Note is denominated in a currency of a
country participating in the European Monetary Union, the procedures described
in this paragraph shall not apply, and the obligations of the Company with
respect to payments on this Note shall instead be determined as set forth in the
following paragraph.

                  Certain of the foreign currencies in which debt securities may
be denominated or payments in respect of index warrants may be due or by which
amounts due on the offered securities may be calculated could be issued by
countries participating in Stage III of the European Economic and Monetary
Union. Stage III began on January 1, 1999 for the eleven participating member
states of the European Union that satisfied the economic convergence criteria in
the Treaty on European Union: Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany,
Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Portugal and Spain. Greece became a
participating member state on January 1, 2001.

                  Stage III includes the introduction of the "Euro," which,
along with the present national currency of each participating member state, is
legal tender in the participating member states.

Dual Currency Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Dual Currency Note, the
Company may have a one time option of making all payments of principal, premium,
if any, and interest on all Dual Currency Notes issued on the same day and
having the same terms (a "Tranche"), which payments would otherwise be made in
the Specified Currency of such Notes, in an optional currency (the "Optional
Payment Currency"). Such option will be exercisable in whole but not in part on
an "Option Election Date," which will be any one of the dates specified on the
face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith.

                  If the Company makes such an election, the amount payable in
the Optional Payment Currency shall be determined using the Designated Exchange
Rate specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto
or delivered herewith. If such election is made, notice of such election shall
be mailed in accordance with the terms of the applicable Tranche of Dual
Currency Notes within two Business Days of the Option Election Date and shall
state (i) the first date, whether an Interest Payment Date and/or Stated
Maturity, in which scheduled payments in the Optional Payment Currency will be
made and (ii) the Designated Exchange Rate. Any such notice by the Company, once
given, may not be withdrawn. The

                                       16

<PAGE>
equivalent value in the Specified Currency of payments made after such an
election may be less, at the then current exchange rate, than if the Company had
made such payment in the Specified Currency.

Renewable Notes

                  If this Note is specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith as a Renewable Note, this Note
will mature on an Interest Payment Date occurring in or prior to the twelfth
month following the Original Issue Date of this Note (the "Initial Maturity
Date") unless the term of all or any portion of this Note is renewed in
accordance with the following procedures:

                  On the Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month
(unless a different interval (the "Special Election Interval") is specified on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith) prior to the Initial Maturity Date of this Note (the "Initial Renewal
Date") and on the Interest Payment Date occurring in each sixth month (or in the
last month of each Special Election Interval) after such Initial Renewal Date
(each, together with the Initial Renewal Date, a "Renewal Date"), the term of
this Note may be extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring in the twelfth
month (or, if a Special Election Interval is specified on the face hereof or in
the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the last month in
a period equal to twice the Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date,
if the Holder of this Note elects to extend the term of this Note or any portion
thereof as described below. If the Holder does not elect to extend the term of
any portion of the principal amount of this Note during the specified period
prior to any Renewal Date, such portion will become due and payable on the
Interest Payment Date occurring in the sixth month (or the last month in the
Special Election Interval) after such Renewal Date (the "New Maturity Date").

                  The Holder may elect to renew the term of this Note, or if so
specified, any portion thereof, by delivering a notice to such effect to the
Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) at the corporate trust office of
the Trustee or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York not less than 15
nor more than 30 days prior to such Renewal Date, unless another period is
specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith. Such election will be irrevocable and will be binding upon
each subsequent Holder of this Note. An election to renew the term of this Note
may be exercised with respect to less than the entire principal amount of this
Note only if so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith and then only in such principal amount, or
any integral multiple in excess thereof, as is specified on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the term of this Note may not be extended beyond the Stated
Maturity specified for this Note on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement
attached hereto or delivered herewith.

                  If the Holder does not elect to renew the term, this Note must
be presented to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) and, as soon as
practicable following receipt of such Note the Trustee (or any duly appointed
paying agent) shall issue in exchange therefor in the name of such Holder (i) a
Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such exchanged Note
for which no election to renew the term thereof was exercised, with terms

                                       17

<PAGE>
identical to those specified on such exchanged Note (except that such Note shall
have a fixed, nonrenewable Stated Maturity on the New Maturity Date) and (ii) if
an election to renew is made with respect to less than the full principal amount
of such Holder's Note, the Trustee or any duly appointed paying agent, shall
issue in exchange for such Note in the name of such Holder a replacement
Renewable Note, in a principal amount equal to the principal amount of such
exchanged Note for which the election to renew was made, with terms otherwise
identical to the exchanged Note.

Extension of Stated Maturity

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Stated Maturity of this
Note may be extended at the option of the Company for one or more periods of
whole years specified on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached
hereto or delivered herewith (each an "Extension Period") from one to five years
up to but not beyond the date (the "Final Maturity") set forth on the face
hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith. The
Company may exercise such option by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least
45 but not more than 60 days prior to the old Stated Maturity of this Note. If
the Company exercises such option, the Trustee will mail to the Holder of this
Note not later than 40 days prior to the old Stated Maturity a notice (the
"Extension Notice"), first class, postage prepaid, indicating (i) the election
of the Company to extend the Stated Maturity, (ii) the new Stated Maturity,
(iii) the Spread or Spread Multiplier applicable to the Extension Period, and
(iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during such 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 Trustee's mailing of the Extension Notice, the Stated Maturity
of this Note shall be extended automatically 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 Notice.

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

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

Optional Redemption, Repayment and Repurchase

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Company may, at its
option, redeem this Note in whole or in part, on the date or dates (each an
"Optional Redemption Date") specified herein, at the price (the "Redemption
Price") (together with accrued interest to such Optional Redemption Date)
specified herein. If required under the Federal Reserve Capital Adequacy Rules,
the Company will obtain the prior approval of the Federal Reserve before
exercising its redemption rights. Unless otherwise stated on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, the Trustee
shall mail to the Holder a notice of such redemption first class, postage
prepaid, at least 30 days prior to the date of redemption. Unless otherwise
stated herein, the Company may exercise such option with respect to a redemption
of this Note in part only by notifying the Trustee for this Note at least 45
days prior to any Optional Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this
Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the unredeemed portion hereof will be
issued to the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

                  If so specified on the face hereof or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will be repayable
prior to Stated Maturity at the option of the Holder on the Optional Repayment
Dates shown on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith at the Optional Repayment Prices shown on the face hereof or
in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, together with
accrued interest to the date of repayment. In order for this Note to be repaid,
the Trustee must receive at least 30 but not more than 45 days prior to an
Optional Repayment Date (i) this Note with the form below entitled "Option to
Elect Repayment" duly completed; or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile
transmission or 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 of America setting forth the name of the Holder of
this 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 thereby and a guarantee that this
Note with the form below entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed
will be received by the Trustee not later than five Business Days after the date
of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. If the procedure
described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is followed, this Note with
form duly completed must be received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day.
Any tender of this Note for repayment (except pursuant to a Reset Notice or an
Extension Notice) shall be irrevocable. The repayment option may be exercised by
the Holder of this Note for less than the entire principal amount of the Note;
provided that the principal amount of this Note remaining outstanding after
repayment is an authorized denomination. Upon such partial repayment, this Note
shall be canceled and a new Note or Notes for the remaining principal amount
hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder of this Note.

                  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith, this Note will not be
subject to any sinking fund.

                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if this Note
is a Discount Note, the amount payable in the event of redemption or repayment
prior to the Stated Maturity hereof (other than pursuant to an optional
redemption by the Company at a stated Redemption Price), in lieu of the
principal amount due at the Stated Maturity hereof, shall be the Amortized Face

Amount of this Note as of the redemption date or the date of repayment, as the
case may be. The Amortized Face Amount of this Note on any date shall be the
amount equal to (i) the Issue Price set forth on the face hereof or in the
pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith plus (ii) that portion
of the difference between such Issue Price and the stated principal amount of
such Note that has accrued by such date at (x) the Bond Yield to Maturity set
forth on the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or
delivered herewith or (y) if so specified, the Bond Yield to Call set forth on
the face hereof or in the pricing supplement attached hereto or delivered
herewith (computed in each case in accordance with generally accepted United
States bond yield computation principles); provided, however, that in no event
shall the Amortized Face Amount of a Note exceed its stated principal amount.
The Bond Yield to Call listed on the face of this Note or in the pricing
supplement attached hereto or delivered herewith shall be computed on the basis
of the first occurring Optional Redemption Date with respect to such Note and
the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date. In the event that such Note
is not redeemed on such first occurring Optional Redemption Date, the Bond Yield
to Call with respect to such Note shall be recomputed on such Optional
Redemption Date on the basis of the next occurring Optional Redemption Date and
the amount payable on such Optional Redemption Date, and shall continue to be so
recomputed on each succeeding Optional Redemption Date until the Note is so
redeemed.

                  The Company may at any time purchase Registered Notes at any
price in the open market or otherwise. Registered Notes so purchased by the
Company may, at the discretion of the Company, be held or resold or surrendered
to the Trustee for such Notes for cancellation.
