     The ING USA Global

promises to pay to Cede & Co., or its registered assigns, the Principal
Amount specified above on the Stated Maturity Date specified above and, if so
specified above, to pay interest thereon from the Original Issue Date specified
above or from the most recent Interest Payment Date specified above to which
interest has been paid or duly

provided for at the rate per annum determined in accordance with the provisions on the reverse hereof and as specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. Unless otherwise specified above,
payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest hereon will be made in the lawful currency of the United States of America (“U.S. Dollars” or “United States Dollars”). If the Specified Currency specified above is other than
U.S. Dollars, the Holder (as defined in the Indenture) shall receive such payments in such Foreign Currency (as hereinafter defined). The “Principal Amount” of this Note at any time means (1) if this Note is a Discount Note (as hereinafter
defined), the Amortized Face Amount (as hereinafter defined) at such time and (2) in all other cases, the Principal Amount hereof. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have their meanings set forth in the Indenture, dated as of the
date of the Pricing Supplement (the “Indenture”), between Citibank, N.A., as the indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”), and the Trust, or on the face hereof.


     This Note will mature on the Stated Maturity Date, unless its principal (or any installment of its principal) becomes due and payable prior to the Stated Maturity Date, whether, as applicable, by the
declaration of acceleration of maturity, notice of redemption by the Trust or otherwise (the Stated Maturity Date or any date prior to the Stated Maturity Date on which this Note becomes due and payable, as the case may be, is referred to as the
“Maturity Date”).


     A “Discount Note” is any Note that has an Issue Price that is less than 100% of the Principal Amount thereof by more than a percentage equal to the product of 0.25% and the number of full
years to the Stated Maturity Date.


     Unless otherwise specified above, the interest payable on each Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date will be the amount of interest accrued from and including the Original Issue Date or from and
including the last Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be, to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be.


     Unless otherwise specified above, the interest payable on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the Person that was the Holder on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date, which
Regular Record Date shall be the fifteenth (15th) calendar day, whether or not a Business Day, immediately preceding the related Interest Payment Date; provided that, notwithstanding any provision of the Indenture to the contrary, interest payable on any Maturity Date shall be payable to the Person to whom principal shall be payable; and provided, further, that unless otherwise specified above, in the case of a Note initially issued between a Regular Record Date and the Interest Payment Date relating to such Regular Record Date, interest
for the period beginning on the Original Issue Date and ending on such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding Regular Record Date to the Holder on such next succeeding Regular Record
Date.


     Payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest and other amounts due and owing, if any, will be made through the Indenture Trustee to the account of DTC or its nominee and will be made in
accordance with depositary arrangements with DTC.

     Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the Holder hereof will not be obligated to pay any administrative costs imposed by banks in making payments in immediately available funds by the Trust.
Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, any tax assessment or governmental charge imposed upon payments hereunder, including, without limitation, any withholding tax, will be borne by the Holder hereof.


     REFERENCE IS HEREBY MADE TO THE FURTHER PROVISIONS OF THIS NOTE SET FORTH ON THE REVERSE HEREOF.  SUCH FURTHER PROVISIONS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES HAVE THE SAME EFFECT AS IF SET FORTH AT THIS
PLACE.


     Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under such Indenture or be
valid or obligatory for any purpose.

	[REVERSE FORM OF
      NOTE]




Section 1. General. This Note is one of a duly
authorized issue of Notes of the Trust. The Notes are issued pursuant to the
Indenture.


	Section 2. Currency.




     (a) Unless
specified otherwise on the face hereof, this Note is denominated in, and
payments of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if any, will be made in
U.S. Dollars. If specified as the Specified Currency, this Note may be
denominated in, and payments of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest, if
any, may be made in a single currency other than U.S. Dollars (a “Foreign
Currency”). If this Note is denominated in a Foreign Currency, the Holder of
this Note is required to pay for this Note in the Specified Currency.

     (b) Unless
specified otherwise on the face hereof, if this Note is denominated in a Foreign
Currency, the Trust is obligated to make payments of principal of, and premium,
if any, and interest, if any, on, this Note in the Specified Currency. Any
amounts so payable by the Trust in the Specified Currency will be converted by
the Exchange Rate Agent into U.S. Dollars for payment to the Holder hereof
unless otherwise specified on the face of this Note or the Holder elects, in the
manner described below, to receive these amounts in the Specified Currency. If
this Note is denominated in a Foreign Currency, any U.S. Dollar amount to be
received by the Holder hereof will be based on the highest bid quotation in The
City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent at approximately 11:00
A.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable
payment date from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (one of whom may be
the Exchange Rate Agent) selected by the Exchange Rate Agent and approved by the
Trust for the purchase by the quoting dealer of the Specified Currency for U.S.
Dollars for settlement on that payment date in the aggregate amount of the
Specified Currency payable to all Holders of the Notes scheduled to receive U.S.
Dollar payments and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a
contract. All currency exchange costs will be borne by the Holders of the Notes
by deductions from any payments. If three bid quotations are not available,
payments will be made in the Specified Currency. If this Note is denominated in
a Foreign Currency, the Holder of this Note may elect to receive all or a
specified portion of any payment of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest,
if any, in the Specified Currency by submitting a written request to the
Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office in The City of New York on or
prior to the applicable Regular Record Date or at least 15 calendar days prior
to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. This written request may be mailed or
hand delivered or sent by cable, telex or other form of facsimile transmission.
This election will remain in effect until revoked by written notice delivered to
the Indenture Trustee on or prior to a Regular Record Date or at least 15
calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be. The Holder of a
Note denominated in a Foreign Currency to be held in the name of a broker or
nominee should contact their broker or nominee to determine whether and how an
election to receive payments in the Specified Currency may be made. Unless
specified otherwise on the face hereof, if the Specified Currency is other than
U.S. Dollars, a beneficial owner of a Note represented by a global security
which elects to

6




receive payments of principal, premium, if any,
and/or interest, if any, in the Specified Currency must notify the Participant
through which it owns its interest on or prior to the applicable Regular Record
Date or at least 15 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may
be, of its election. The applicable Participant must notify DTC of its election
on or prior to the third Business Day after the applicable Regular Record Date
or at least 12 calendar days prior to the Maturity Date, as the case may be, and
DTC will notify the Indenture Trustee of that election on or prior to the fifth
Business Day after the applicable Regular Record Date or at least ten calendar
days prior the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If complete instructions are
received by the Participant from the applicable beneficial owner and forwarded
by the Participant to DTC, and by DTC to the Indenture Trustee, on or prior to
such dates, then the applicable beneficial owner will receive payments in the
Specified Currency.

     (c) The Trust will
indemnify the Holder hereof against any loss incurred as a result of any
judgment or order being given or made for any amount due under this Note and
that judgment or order requiring payment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”)
other than the Specified Currency, and as a result of any variation between: (i)
the rate of exchange at which the Specified Currency amount is converted into
the Judgment Currency for the purpose of that judgment or order; and (ii) the
rate of exchange at which the Holder, on the date of payment of that judgment or
order, is able to purchase the Specified Currency with the amount of the
Judgment Currency actually received.

     (d) Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, if payment hereon is required to be made
in a Foreign Currency and such currency is unavailable due to the imposition of
exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the Trust’s control, then the
Trust will be entitled to make payments with respect hereto in U.S. Dollars on
the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as hereinafter defined), computed by the
Exchange Rate Agent, on the second Business Day prior to the particular payment
or, if the Market Exchange Rate is not then available, on the basis of the most
recently available Market Exchange Rate.

     (e) The “Market
Exchange Rate” for the Foreign Currency shall mean the noon dollar buying rate
in The City of New York for cable transfers for the Foreign Currency as
certified for customs purposes (or, if not so certified, as otherwise
determined) by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

     (f) All
determinations made by the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at its sole discretion
and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and
binding on the Holder hereof.

     (g) All costs of
exchange in respect of this Note, if denominated in a Foreign Currency, will be
borne by the Holder hereof.

	 	(ii)      	Effective Rate. The rate derived from the applicable Interest Rate Basis will
      be determined in accordance with the related provisions below. The
      interest rate in effect on each day will be based on: (1) if that day is
      an Interest Reset Date, the rate determined as of the Interest
      Determination Date immediately preceding that Interest Reset Date; or (2)
      if that day is not an 
	 


8




Interest Reset Date, the rate determined as of
the Interest Determination Date immediately preceding the most recent Interest
Reset Date.

(iii) Spread; Spread
Multiplier; Index Maturity. The “Spread” is the
number of basis points (one one-hundredth of a percentage point) specified on
the face hereof to be added to or subtracted from the related Interest Rate
Basis or Interest Rate Bases applicable to this Note. The “Spread Multiplier” is
the percentage specified on the face hereof of the related Interest Rate Basis
or Interest Rate Bases applicable to this Note by which the Interest Rate Basis
or Interest Rate Bases will be multiplied to determine the applicable interest
rate. The “Index Maturity” is the period to maturity of the instrument or
obligation with respect to which the related Interest Rate Basis or Interest
Rate Bases will be calculated.

(iv) Regular Floating
Rate Note. Unless this Note is specified on the face
hereof as a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note, a Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Note or an
Inverse Floating Rate Note, this Note (a “Regular Floating Rate Note”) will bear
interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate
Basis or Interest Rate Bases: (1) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any;
and/or (2) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any. Commencing on
the first Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Regular
Floating Rate Note is payable will be reset as of each Interest Reset Date;
provided, however, that
the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date
to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate.

(v) Floating
Rate/Fixed Rate Notes. If this Note is specified on
the face hereof as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note”, this Note will bear
interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate
Basis or Interest Rate Bases: (1) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any;
and/or (2) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any. Commencing on
the first Interest Reset Date, the rate at which this Floating Rate/Fixed Rate
Note is payable will be reset as of each Interest Reset Date; provided, however, that: (A) the interest
rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue Date to the first
Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate specified on the face
hereof; and (B) the interest rate in effect commencing on the Fixed Rate
Commencement Date will be the Fixed Interest Rate, if specified on the face
hereof, or, if not so specified, the interest rate in effect on the day
immediately preceding the Fixed Rate Commencement Date.

(vi) Fixed
Rate/Floating Rate Notes. If this Note is specified
on the face hereof as a “Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Note”, this Note will bear
interest at the rate per annum specified on the face hereof as the Fixed
Interest Rate; provided, however, that commencing on the Floating Rate Commencement Date, this Note
will bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable
Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases: (1) plus or minus the

9




applicable Spread, if any; and/or (2) multiplied
by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any. Commencing on the first Interest
Reset Date, the rate at which this Fixed Rate/Floating Rate Note is payable will
be reset as of each Interest Reset Date.

(vii) Inverse Floating
Rate Notes. If this Note is specified on the face
hereof as an “Inverse Floating Rate Note”, this Note will bear interest at the
Fixed Interest Rate minus the rate determined by reference to the applicable
Interest Rate Basis or Interest Rate Bases: (1) plus or minus the applicable
Spread, if any; and/or (2) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if
any; provided, however,
that interest on this Inverse Floating Rate Note will not be less than zero.
Commencing on the first Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this
Inverse Floating Rate Note is payable will be reset as of each Interest Reset
Date; provided, however,
that the interest rate in effect for the period, if any, from the Original Issue
Date to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest
Rate.

(viii) Interest Reset
Dates. The period between Interest Reset Dates will
be the “Interest Period.” Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the
Interest Reset Dates will be, in the case of this Floating Rate Note if by its
terms it resets: (1) daily—each business day; (2) weekly—the Wednesday of each
week, with the exception of any weekly reset Floating Rate Note as to which the
Treasury Rate is an applicable Interest Rate Basis, which will reset the Tuesday
of each week; (3) monthly—the fifteenth day of each calendar month, with the
exception of any monthly reset Floating Rate Note as to which the Eleventh
District Cost of Funds Rate is an applicable Interest Rate Basis, which will
reset on the first calendar day of the month; (4) quarterly—the fifteenth day of
March, June, September and December of each year; (5) semi-annually—the
fifteenth day of the two months of each year specified on the face hereof; and
(6) annually—the fifteenth day of the month of each year specified on the face
hereof; provided, however, that, with respect to a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note, the rate of
interest thereon will not reset after the particular Fixed Rate Commencement
Date. If any Interest Reset Date for this Floating Rate Note would otherwise be
a day that is not a Business Day, the particular Interest Reset Date will be
postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that in the case of a
Floating Rate Note as to which LIBOR is an applicable Interest Rate Basis and
that Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, the particular
Interest Reset Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day.

(ix) Interest
Determination Dates. The interest rate applicable to
a Floating Rate Note for an Interest Period commencing on the related Interest
Reset Date will be determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis
as of the particular “Interest Determination Date”, which will be: (1) with
respect to the Commercial Paper Rate, Federal Funds Rate and the Prime Rate—the
Business Day immediately preceding the related Interest Reset Date; (2) with
respect to the CD Rate and the CMT Rate—the second

10




Business Day preceding the related Interest Reset
Date; (3) with respect to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate—the last
working day of the month immediately preceding the related Interest Reset Date
on which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco publishes the Eleventh
District Index (as defined below); (4) with respect to LIBOR and EURIBOR—the
second London Banking Day (as defined below) preceding the related Interest
Reset Date; and (5) with respect to the Treasury Rate—the day of the week in
which the related Interest Reset Date falls on which day Treasury Bills (as
defined below) are normally auctioned (i.e., Treasury Bills 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 the
auction may be held on the preceding Friday); provided, however, that if an auction is
held on the Friday of the week preceding the related Interest Reset Date, the
Interest Determination Date will be the preceding Friday. The Interest
Determination Date pertaining to a Floating Rate Note, the interest rate of
which is determined with reference to two or more Interest Rate Bases, will be
the latest Business Day which is at least two Business Days before the related
Interest Reset Date for the applicable Floating Rate Note on which each Interest
Reset Basis is determinable. “London Banking Day” means a day on which
commercial banks are open for business (including dealings in the LIBOR
Currency, as hereinafter defined) in London.

(x) Calculation
Dates. The interest rate applicable to each Interest
Period will be determined by the Calculation Agent on or prior to the
Calculation Date (as defined below), except with respect to LIBOR, EURIBOR and
the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, which will be determined on the
particular Interest Determination Date. Upon request of the Holder of a Floating
Rate Note, the Calculation Agent will disclose the interest rate then in effect
and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective as a result of
a determination made for the next succeeding Interest Reset Date with respect to
such Floating Rate Note. The “Calculation Date”, if applicable, pertaining to
any Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of: (1) the tenth calendar
day after the particular Interest Determination Date or, if such day is not a
Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day; or (2) the Business Day
immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date,
as the case may be.

(xi) Maximum or
Minimum Interest Rate. If specified on the face
hereof, this Note may have either or both of a Maximum Interest Rate or a
Minimum Interest Rate. If a Maximum Interest Rate is so designated, the interest
rate for a Floating Rate Note cannot ever exceed such Maximum Interest Rate and
in the event that the interest rate on any Interest Reset Date would exceed such
Maximum Interest Rate (as if no Maximum Interest Rate were in effect) then the
interest rate on such Interest Reset Date shall be the Maximum Interest Rate. If
a Minimum Interest Rate is so designated, the interest rate for a Floating Rate
Note cannot ever be less than such Minimum Interest

11




Rate and in the event that the interest rate on
any Interest Reset Date would be less than such Minimum Interest Rate (as if no
Minimum Interest Rate were in effect) then the interest rate on such Interest
Reset Date shall be the Minimum Interest Rate. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, the interest rate on a Floating Rate Note shall not
exceed the maximum interest rate permitted by applicable law.

(xii) Interest
Payments. Unless otherwise specified on the face
hereof, the Interest Payment Dates will be, in the case of a Floating Rate Note
which resets: (1) daily, weekly or monthly—the fifteenth day of each calendar
month or on the fifteenth day of March, June, September and December of each
year, as specified on the face hereof; (2) quarterly—the fifteenth day of March,
June, September and December of each year; (3) semi-annually—the fifteenth day
of the two months of each year specified on the face hereof; and (4)
annually—the fifteenth day of the month of each year as specified on the face
hereof. In addition, the Maturity Date will also be an Interest Payment Date. If
any Interest Payment Date other than the Maturity Date for this Floating Rate
Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment
Date will be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, except that in the
case of a Floating Rate Note as to which LIBOR is an applicable Interest Rate
Basis and that Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, the
particular Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day.
If the Maturity Date of a Floating Rate Note falls on a day that is not a
Business Day, the Trust will make the required payment of principal, premium, if
any, and interest or other amounts on the next succeeding Business Day, and no
additional interest will accrue in respect of the payment made on that next
succeeding Business Day.

(xiii) Rounding. Unless otherwise specified on
the face hereof, all percentages resulting from any calculation on this Floating
Rate Note will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage
point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards. All
dollar amounts used in or resulting from any calculation on this Floating Rate
Note will be rounded, in the case of U.S. Dollars, to the nearest cent or, in
the case of a Foreign Currency, to the nearest unit (with one-half cent or unit
being rounded upwards).

(xiv) Interest
Factor. With respect to this Floating Rate Note,
accrued interest is calculated by multiplying the principal amount of such Note
by an accrued interest factor. The accrued interest factor is computed by adding
the interest factor calculated for each day in the particular Interest Period.
The interest factor for each day will be computed by dividing the interest rate
applicable to such day by 360, in the case of a Floating Rate Note as to which
the CD Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds
Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR, EURIBOR or the Prime Rate is an applicable
Interest Rate Basis, or by the actual number of days in the year, in the case of
a Floating Rate Note as to which the CMT Rate or the Treasury

12




Rate is an applicable Interest Rate Basis. The
interest factor for a Floating Rate Note as to which the interest rate is
calculated with reference to two or more Interest Rate Bases will be calculated
in each period in the same manner as if only the applicable Interest Rate Basis
specified above applied.

(xv) Determination of
Interest Rate Basis. The Calculation Agent shall
determine the rate derived from each Interest Rate Basis in accordance with the
following provisions.

(A) CD Rate

United States money market banks for negotiable United States certificates of
deposit with a remaining maturity closest to the particular Index Maturity in an
amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that

Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market”; or (6) if the rate
referred to in clause (5) is not so published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time,
on the related Calculation Date, the rate on the particular Interest
Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the Bond Equivalent
Yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of

Agent, for the issue of Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity closest to the

by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in clause (6), the
Treasury Rate in effect on the particular Interest Determination Date. “Bond
Equivalent Yield” means a yield (expressed as a percentage) calculated in
accordance with the following formula:


	Bond Equivalent Yield =  	  	D x N  	  	x 100  
			
      

      360 – (D x
    M) 		
	  	  	 	  	  




where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate
for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal,
“N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual
number of days in the applicable Interest Period.

	(c)      	Discount
      Notes. If this Note is specified on the face
      hereof as a “Discount Note”: 
	 
	 	(i)      	Principal and
      Interest. This Note will bear interest in the
      same manner as set forth in Section 3(a) above, and
      payments of principal and interest shall be made as set forth on the face
      hereof. Discount Notes may not bear any interest currently or may bear
      interest at a rate that is below market rates at the time of issuance. The
      difference between the Issue Price of a Discount Note and par is referred
      to as the “Discount”.  
	 
	 	(ii)      	Redemption; Repayment;
      Acceleration. In the event a Discount Note is
      redeemed, repaid or accelerated, the amount payable to the Holder of such
      Discount Note will be equal to the sum of: (A) the Issue Price (increased
      by any accruals of Discount) and, in the event of any redemption of such
      Discount Note, if applicable, multiplied by the Initial Redemption
      Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if
      applicable); and (B) any unpaid interest accrued on such Discount Note to
      the Maturity Date (“Amortized Face Amount”). Unless otherwise specified on
      the face hereof, for purposes of determining the amount of Discount that
      has accrued as of any date on which a redemption, repayment or
      acceleration of maturity 
	 


23




occurs for a Discount Note, a Discount will be
accrued using a constant yield method. The constant yield will be calculated
using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except
for the Initial Period (as defined below), corresponds to the shortest period
between Interest Payment Dates for the applicable Discount Note (with ratable
accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal to the initial coupon
rate applicable to the applicable Discount Note and an assumption that the
maturity of such Discount Note will not be accelerated. If the period from the
date of issue to the first Interest Payment Date for a Discount Note (the
“Initial Period”) is shorter than the compounding period for such Discount Note,
a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding period will be
accrued. If the Initial Period is longer than the compounding period, then the
period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period with
the short period being treated as provided above.

     (d) Amortizing Notes. If this Note is
specified on the face hereof as an “Amortizing Note”, this Note will bear
interest in the same manner as set forth in Section 3(a) above, and payments on
principal, premium, if any, and interest will be made as set forth on the face
hereof and/or in accordance with Schedule
I attached hereto. The Trust will make payments
combining principal, premium (if any) and interest, if applicable, on the dates
and in the amounts set forth in the table appearing in Schedule I attached to this Note or in
accordance with the formula specified on the face hereof. Payments made hereon
will be applied first to interest due and payable hereon and then to the
reduction of the unpaid principal amount hereof.

Section 4. Redemption. If no redemption right is
set forth on the face hereof, this Note may not be redeemed prior to the Stated
Maturity Date, except as set forth in the Indenture or in Section 10 hereof. In
the case of a Note that is not a Discount Note, if a redemption right is set
forth on the face of this Note, the Trust shall elect to redeem this Note on the
Interest Payment Date after the Initial Redemption Date set forth on the face
hereof on which the Funding Agreement is to be redeemed in whole or in part by
ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company (“ING USA”) (each, a “Redemption
Date”), in which case this Note must be redeemed on such Redemption Date in
whole or in part, as applicable, prior to the Stated Maturity Date, in
increments of $1,000 at the applicable Redemption Price (as defined below),
together with unpaid interest, if any, accrued thereon to, but excluding, the
applicable Redemption Date. “Redemption Price” shall mean an amount equal to the
Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage
Reduction, if applicable) multiplied by the unpaid Principal Amount of this Note
to be redeemed. The unpaid Principal Amount of this Note to be redeemed shall be
determined by multiplying (1) the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note by
(2) the quotient derived by dividing (A) the outstanding principal amount of the
Funding Agreement to be redeemed by ING USA by (B) the outstanding principal
amount of the Funding Agreement. The Initial Redemption Percentage, if any,
applicable to this Note shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial
Redemption Date by an amount equal to the applicable Annual Redemption
Percentage Reduction, if any, until the Redemption Price is equal to 100% of the
unpaid amount thereof to be redeemed. Notice must be given not more than sixty
(60) nor less than thirty (30) calendar days prior

24




to the proposed Redemption Date. In the event of
redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unredeemed portion
hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the surrender
hereof. If less than all of this Note is redeemed, the Indenture Trustee will
select by lot or, in its discretion, on a pro rata basis, the amount of the
interest of each direct Participant in the Trust to be redeemed.

Section 5. Sinking Funds and Amortizing Notes.
Unless specified on the face hereof, this Note will not be subject to, or
entitled to the benefit of, any sinking fund. If this Note is an Amortizing
Note, this Note may pay an amount in respect of both interest and principal
amortized over the life of this Note.

Section 6. Repayment. If no repayment right is
set forth on the face hereof, this Note may not be repaid at the option of the
Holder hereof prior to the Stated Maturity Date. If a repayment right is granted
on the face of this Note, this Note may be subject to repayment at the option of
the Holder on any Interest Payment Date on and after the date, if any, indicated
on the face hereof (each, a “Repayment Date”). On any Repayment Date, unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, this Note shall be repayable in whole or
in part in increments of $1,000 at the option of the Holder hereof at a
repayment price equal to 100% of the Principal Amount to be repaid, together
with interest thereon payable to the Repayment Date. For this Note to be repaid
in whole or in part at the option of the Holder hereof, this Note must be
received by the Indenture Trustee, with the form entitled “Option to Elect
Repayment”, below, duly completed by the Indenture Trustee. Exercise of such
repayment option by the Holder hereof shall be irrevocable. 

Section 7. Modifications and Waivers. The
Indenture contains provisions permitting the Trust and the Indenture Trustee (1)
at any time and from time to time without notice to, or the consent of, the
Holders of any Notes issued under the Indenture to enter into one or more
supplemental indentures for certain enumerated purposes and (2) with the consent
of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Notes affected thereby, to enter into one or more 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 modifying in any
manner the rights of Holders of Notes under the Indenture; provided, that, with respect to certain
enumerated provisions, no such supplemental indenture shall be entered into
without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby. Any such
consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding
upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu
hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note
or such other Notes.

Section 8. Obligations Unconditional. No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provisions of this Note or of the
Indenture shall impair the right of each Holder of any Note, which is absolute
and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of, and any interest on,
and premium, if any, on, such Note on the respective Stated Maturity Date or
redemption date thereof and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such
payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such
Holder. 

Section 9. Events of Default. If an Event of
Default with respect to this Note shall occur and be continuing, the principal
of, and all other amounts payable on, the Notes 

25









may be declared due and payable, or may be automatically accelerated, as the case may be, in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. In the event that this Note is a Discount Note, the amount of principal of this
Note that becomes due and payable upon such acceleration shall be equal to the amount calculated as set forth in Section 3(c) hereof.


Section 10. Withholding; Tax Event and Redemption. All amounts due on this Note will be made without any applicable withholding or deduction for or on
account of any present or future taxes, duties, levies, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by or on behalf of any governmental authority, unless such withholding or deduction is required by law. Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, the Trust will not pay any additional amounts to the Holder of this Note in respect of such withholding or deduction, any such withholding or deduction will not give rise to an event of default or any
independent right or obligation to redeem this Note and the Holder will be deemed for all purposes to have received cash in an amount equal to the portion of such withholding or deduction that is attributable to such Holder’s interest in this
Note as equitably determined by the Trust.


     If (1) a Tax Event (defined below) as to the Funding Agreement occurs and (2) ING USA redeems the Funding Agreement in whole or in part, the Trust will redeem the Notes, subject to the terms and
conditions of Section 2.05 of the Indenture, at the Tax Event Redemption Price (defined below) together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the applicable redemption date. “Tax
Event” means that ING USA shall have received an opinion of independent legal counsel stating in effect that as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change (including any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or any regulations
thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (b) any amendment to, or change in, an interpretation or application of any such laws or regulations by any governmental authority in the United
States, which amendment or change is enacted, promulgated, issued or announced on or after the effective date of the Funding Agreement, there is more than an insubstantial risk that (i) the Trust is, or will be within ninety (90) days of the date
thereof, subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to interest accrued or received on the Funding Agreement or (ii) the Trust is, or will be within ninety (90) days of the date thereof, subject to more than a de minimis amount of taxes, duties
or other governmental charges. “Tax Event Redemption Price” means an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of this Note to be redeemed, which shall be determined by multiplying (1) the Outstanding Principal Amount of this Note by (2)
the quotient derived by dividing (A) the outstanding principal amount to be redeemed by ING USA of the Funding Agreement by (B) the outstanding principal amount of the Funding Agreement.


Section 11. Listing. Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, this Note will not be listed on any securities exchange.


Section 12. Collateral. The Collateral for this Note includes the Funding Agreement specified on the face hereof.


Section 13. No Recourse Against Certain Persons. No recourse shall be had for the payment of any principal, interest or any other sums at any time owing
under the terms of this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in 


26






respect of the Indenture or any indenture
supplemental thereto, against the Nonrecourse Parties, whether by virtue of any
constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or
penalty or otherwise, all such personal liability being, by the acceptance
hereof and as part of the consideration for issue hereof, expressly waived and
released.

and procedures established by DTC and its Participants. The Trust and the
Indenture Trustee will recognize Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, as the
registered owner of the Notes and as the Holder of the Notes for all purposes,
including payment of principal, premium (if any) and interest, notices and
voting. Transfer of principal, premium (if any) and interest to participants of
DTC will be the responsibility of DTC, and transfer of principal, premium (if
any) and interest to beneficial holders of the Notes by Participants of DTC will
be the responsibility of such Participants and other nominees of such beneficial
holders. So long as the book-entry system is in effect, the selection of any

charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trust
may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge payable in connection therewith.
