          WACHOVIA CORPORATION, a North Carolina corporation (hereinafter called
the "Company", which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede &
Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS on

most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly
provided for, semi-annually on August 4 and February 4 in each year, commencing
on February 4, 1999, at the rate of 6 1/4% per annum, until the principal hereof
is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in
such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or

<PAGE>

more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be on the Business Day next
preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date or, in the event the Subordinated
Notes are no longer in book-entry form, the fifteenth day (whether or not a
Business Day) of the month preceding the month in which tie relevant Interest
Payment Date occurs. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided
for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date
and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (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 Ho1ders of Securities of this series
not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time
in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and
upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided
in said Indenture.

          Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this
Security will be made at the offices or agencies of the Trustee maintained for
that purpose in New York, New York, in such coin or currency of the United
States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of
public and private debts; provided, however, that at the option of the Company
payment of interest may be made by check drawn upon any Paying Agent and mailed
on or prior to an Interest Payment Date to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

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

          Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof, directly or through an
authenticating agent, by the manual signature of an authorized signer, this
Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.

                               WACHOVIA CORPORATION

                   6 1/4% Subordinated Notes due August 4, 2008

          This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company (herein called the "Securities"), issued and to be issued in one or more
series under an Indenture, dated as of July 15, 1998 (herein called the
"Indenture") between the Company and The Chase Manhattan Bank, as Trustee
(herein called 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, limitation of
rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the
Holders of Senior Indebtedness, the Holders of Additional Senior Obligations and
the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are,
and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series
designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to
$350,000,000.

          In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated
Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day at any Place of Payment,
then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture or of this Security)
payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made at such
Place of Payment on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business
Day to such Place of Payment with the same force and effect as if made on the
Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the Stated Maturity, provided
that no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

          The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is unsecured and, to the
extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and subject in right of payment to
the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness and, under certain
circumstances, to Additional Senior Obligations, and this Security is issued
subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of
this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such
provisions and (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such
action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so
provided.

          If a Bankruptcy Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with
respect to the Company shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the
Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Indenture.

          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 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 66 2/3% in principal amount of the 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

<PAGE>

amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of
the Holders of all 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 Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all
future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration
of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

          No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security
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 Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency, herein prescribed.

          As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security
Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of
this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

          The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form
without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount
of Securities of this series of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

          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.

          The Indenture provides that a Subsidiary may assume the obligations of
