7.30% NOTE DUE AUGUST 15, 2011




     1. INTEREST. Fidelity National Title Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Security at the rate of 7.30% per annum.
The Company shall pay interest semiannually on February 15 and August 15 of each year (each an
“Interest Payment Date”), commencing February 15, 2006, until the principal is paid or made
available for payment. Interest on this Security will accrue from the most recent date to which
interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from the later of
August 15, 2005 and the last date for which interest was paid on the 7.30% Fidelity National
Financial, Inc. note due August 15, 2011 (CUSIP No. 316326AC1), for which this Security was
exchanged. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.



     2. METHOD OF PAYMENT. The Company shall pay interest on this Security (except defaulted
interest, if any, which shall be paid on such special payment date as may be fixed by the Company
to Holders of record on such special record date as may be fixed by the Company) to the persons who
are registered Holders at the close of business on the February 1 or August 1 immediately preceding
any Interest Payment Date, except that interest payable on August 15, 2011 shall be payable to the
persons to whom principal is payable on such date. A holder must surrender this Security to a
Paying Agent to collect principal payments. The Company shall pay principal and interest in money
of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private
debts.



     3. PAYING AGENT AND REGISTRAR. Initially, The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. (the
“Trustee”) shall act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Company may change or appoint any Paying
Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar without notice. The Company or any of its Subsidiaries may act as
Paying Agent, Registrar or co-Registrar.



     4. INDENTURE. The Company issued this Security under an Indenture dated as of December 8,
2005 between the Company and the Trustee, as amended by a First Supplemental Indenture dated as of
January 6, 2006 (as so amended and as it may be further amended, the “Indenture”). The terms of
this Security include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by
reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (“TIA”) as in effect on the date of the Indenture.
This Security is subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the TIA
for a statement thereof. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the
meanings set forth in the Indenture.



          The Company shall furnish to any Holder upon written request and without charge a copy of the
Indenture. Requests may be made to: Fidelity National Title Group, Inc., 601 Riverside Avenue,

     6. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION. This Security is redeemable at the option of the Company, at any time
in whole or from time to time in part, at a price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of
(i) 100% of the principal amount of this Security to be redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present
values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the principal amount of
this Security to be redeemed, exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption (the
“Redemption Date”), discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the applicable Treasury Yield plus 30 basis points,
plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. The principal amount of this
Security called for redemption shall become due on the Redemption Date.



               For purposes of determining the Redemption Price, the following definitions are applicable:





     “Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an
Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of this
Security that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary
financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable
maturity to the remaining term of this Security.




“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date:




the average of the bid and the asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue,
expressed as a percentage of its principal amount, at 4:00 p.m. on the third
business day preceding that Redemption Date, as set forth on “Telerate Page 500,” or
such other page as may replace Telerate Page 500; or




if Telerate Page 500, or any successor page, is not displayed or does not contain
bid and/or asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue at that time, the average
of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations obtained by the Trustee for that
Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations, or, if the Trustee is unable to obtain at least four such
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations obtained by the Trustee.




     “Independent Investment Banker” means Lehman Brothers Inc. and any successors or, if it
is unwilling or unable to select the applicable Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent
investment banking institution of national standing appointed by the Trustee and reasonably
acceptable to the Company.




     “Reference Treasury Dealer” means Lehman Brothers Inc. and any successors and four
other primary United States government securities dealers in New York City selected by the
Independent Investment Banker (each, a “Primary Treasury Dealer”); provided that, if any of
the foregoing ceases to be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company shall substitute another
Primary Treasury Dealer therefor.

     “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury
Dealer and any Redemption Date, an average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and
asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue for this Security, expressed in each case as
a percentage of its principal amount, quoted in writing to the Trustee by the Reference
Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third business day preceding the
Redemption Date.




     “Treasury Yield” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal
to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity, computed as of the third business day
immediately preceding the Redemption Date, of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a
price for the Comparable Treasury Issue, expressed as a percentage of its principal amount,
equal to the applicable Comparable Treasury Price for the Redemption Date.



     7. UNCLAIMED MONEY. If money for the payment of principal or interest remains unclaimed for
two years, the Trustee or Paying Agent shall pay the money back to the Company at its request.
After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Company for payment unless an abandoned
property law designates another person.



     8. AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT. Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or this Security may
be amended or supplemented with the consent of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of
the Holders affected by the amendment. Without the consent of any Holder, the Company and the
Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture or this Security to, among other things, cure any
ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, to create another series of Securities and establish its terms
or to make any other change, provided such action does not adversely affect the rights of any
Holder.



     9. DEFAULTS AND REMEDIES. This Security has the Events of Default set forth in Sections
5.1(1), (2), (3), (4), (5) and (6) of the Indenture.



          If an Event of Default with respect to this Security occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or
the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of this Security, by written notice to
the Company (and, if given by the Holders, to the Trustee), may declare the principal of and
accrued interest, if any, on the aggregate principal amount of this Security to be due and payable,
and upon any such declaration such principal and interest, if any, shall be immediately due and
payable.




          At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to this Security has been
made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee
as provided in the Indenture, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of this
Security, by written notice to the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences as provided in the Indenture.




          The Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of this Security by written notice to
the Trustee may waive any past Default or Event of Default with respect to this Security and its
consequences except (a) a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, or
premium, if any, or interest on, this Security or (b) in respect of a covenant or




-5-









 







provision hereof which pursuant to the Indenture cannot be amended or modified without the
consent of each Holder of this Security. Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist,
and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured.




     10. AMOUNT UNLIMITED. The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated
and delivered under the Indenture is unlimited. The Securities may be issued from time to time in
one or more series. The Company may from time to time, without the consent of the existing Holders
of this Security, issue additional Securities of the series of which this Security is a part on
substantially the same terms and conditions as those of this Security.



     11. SUCCESSOR CORPORATION. When a successor corporation assumes all the obligations of its
predecessor under this Security and the Indenture under Article 7 of the Indenture, the predecessor
corporation shall be released from those obligations.



     12. TRUSTEE DEALINGS WITH COMPANY. The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee under
the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may make loans to, accept deposits from,
and perform services for the Company or its affiliates, and may otherwise deal with the Company or
its affiliates, as if it were not Trustee.



     13. NO RECOURSE AGAINST OTHERS. A director, officer, employee or stockholder, as such, of the
Company shall not have any liability for any obligations of the Company under this Security or the
Indenture or for any claim based on, in respect of or by reason of such obligations or their
creation. Each Holder by accepting this Security waives and releases all such liability. The
waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issue of this Security.



     14. DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE. The Indenture contains certain provisions pertaining to
defeasance, which provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth herein.



     15. AUTHENTICATION. This Security shall not be valid until the Trustee signs the certificate
