 ARTICLE 1 
 DEFINITIONS 
 (a) Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Base Indenture. 
 (b) The rules of interpretation set
forth in the Base Indenture shall be applied hereto as if set forth in full herein. 
 (c) For all purposes of this Sixth
Supplemental Indenture, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings (such meanings shall apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of the
respective terms). 
 “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 the Notes to be redeemed 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 the Notes. 
 “Comparable Treasury
Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date for the Notes, the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations obtained by the Trustee for that applicable Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, or, if the Trustee obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations obtained by the Trustee. 

“Guarantors” means, initially, American Overseas Marine Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Bath Iron Works
Corporation, a Maine corporation, Electric Boat Corporation, a Delaware corporation, General Dynamics Armament and Technical Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation, General Dynamics Government Systems Corporation, a Delaware corporation, General
Dynamics Land Systems Inc., a Delaware corporation, General Dynamics Ordnance and Tactical Systems, Inc., a Virginia corporation, Gulfstream Aerospace Corporation, a Delaware corporation, and National Steel and Shipbuilding Company, a Nevada
corporation. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers, to be appointed by
the Company. 
 “Notes” shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in Section 2.01(a) hereof. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date,
the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30

in its place another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer. 
 “Remaining
Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Note that the Company is redeeming, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related Redemption Date if such Note were not
redeemed. However, if the Redemption Date is not a scheduled interest payment date with respect to that Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on that Note will be deemed to be reduced by the amount of interest accrued on
such Note to the Redemption Date. 
 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per
annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for
that Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate will be calculated on and as of the third Business Day immediately preceding the Redemption Date.

 CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION 

This is one of the Securities of the series designated as the Notes due 2015 herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

 as Trustee

 (FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE DUE 2015) 

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Notes of the Company (herein sometimes referred to as the “Notes”), all
issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of August 27, 2001, duly executed and delivered by and among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the
“Trustee”), as supplemented to date, including by the Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 12, 2011, by and among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and the Trustee (the Indenture, as so supplemented, the
“Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the
Guarantors named therein and the Holders of the Notes. By the terms of the Indenture, the Notes are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in other respects as provided in the Indenture. This series of
Notes is initially offered in aggregate principal amount as specified in said Sixth Supplemental Indenture. 
 The Company at
its option may, at any time and from time to time, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon payment of a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be
redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at the Treasury Rate plus 12.5 basis
points. The Redemption Price for the Notes will include accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to but excluding the Redemption Date. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on
the Notes or any portion thereof called for redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest. 
 Any redemption pursuant to the preceding paragraph will be made upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice before the Redemption Date to the Holders, at the Redemption Price. If the
Notes are only partially redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, that if at the time of redemption the Notes are registered as Global Securities,
the Depository shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of such Notes held by each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York time, on the Redemption Date or such
earlier time as the Company determines, provided that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the date such Redemption Price is to be paid. 







 In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of this series for
the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
 In case an Event
of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Notes may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions
provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series affected at the time outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing
in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, among other
things, (i) change the fixed maturity of any Notes of any series, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, without
the consent of the Holder of each Note so affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Notes, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each Note then
outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any series at the time outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the
Notes of such series, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture with respect to such series, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the
principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the registered Holder (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders and owners of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange therefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation
of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed. 







 As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note
is transferable by the registered Holder hereof on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City and State of New York accompanied by a written
instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and
for the same aggregate principal amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in relation thereto. 
 Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the
Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing hereon
made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and premium, if any, and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any
paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 
 No recourse shall be had for the
payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or the interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past,
present or future, as such, of the Company or any Guarantor or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released. 
 The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 above that amount. This Global Note is exchangeable for Notes
in definitive form only under certain limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, Notes of this series so issued are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN THE INDENTURE AND THIS NOTE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF.

 CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION 

This is one of the Securities of the series designated as the Notes due 2016 herein referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

  

									
	Dated:                 	 		 	 THE BANK OF NEW YORK MELLON,
 as Trustee

					
		 		 		 	By:	 	 
		 		 		 		 	Authorized Signatory








 (FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE DUE 2016) 

This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Notes of the Company (herein sometimes referred to as the “Notes”), all
issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of August 27, 2001, duly executed and delivered by and among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the
“Trustee”), as supplemented to date, including by the Sixth Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 12, 2011, by and among the Company, the Guarantors named therein and the Trustee (the Indenture, as so supplemented, the
“Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company, the
Guarantors named therein and the Holders of the Notes. By the terms of the Indenture, the Notes are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in other respects as provided in the Indenture. This series of
Notes is initially offered in aggregate principal amount as specified in said Sixth Supplemental Indenture. 
 The Company at
its option may, at any time and from time to time, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, upon payment of a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be
redeemed or (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at the Treasury Rate plus 12.5 basis
points. The Redemption Price for the Notes will include accrued but unpaid interest, if any, on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to but excluding the Redemption Date. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on
the Notes or any portion thereof called for redemption, unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest. 
 Any redemption pursuant to the preceding paragraph will be made upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice before the Redemption Date to the Holders, at the Redemption Price. If the
Notes are only partially redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate; provided, that if at the time of redemption the Notes are registered as Global Securities,
the Depository shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of such Notes held by each Holder of Notes to be redeemed. The Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York time, on the Redemption Date or such
earlier time as the Company determines, provided that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount sufficient to pay the Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m., New York time, on the date such Redemption Price is to be paid. 







 In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of this series for
the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. 
 In case an Event
of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Notes may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions
provided in the Indenture. 
 The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series affected at the time outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing
in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, among other
things, (i) change the fixed maturity of any Notes of any series, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, without
the consent of the Holder of each Note so affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Notes, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each Note then
outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any series at the time outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the
Notes of such series, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture with respect to such series, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the
principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the registered Holder (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders and owners of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange therefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

 No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation
of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note is transferable by the registered Holder
hereof on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer 







 
at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City and State of New York accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly
executed by the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee
or transferees. No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in relation thereto. 

Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and the Security Registrar
may deem and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof (whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the purpose
of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and premium, if any, and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security Registrar shall be affected by any
notice to the contrary. 
 No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or the interest on
this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as such, of the Company or any Guarantor or of
any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the
consideration for the issuance hereof, expressly waived and released. 
 The Notes of this series are issuable only in
registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 above that amount. This Global Note is exchangeable for Notes in definitive form only under certain limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, Notes of this series so issued are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the
meanings assigned to them in the Indenture. 
 THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN THE INDENTURE AND THIS
NOTE WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREOF.
