under "Other Provisions" above and/or in the Addendum attached hereto, on the
Stated Maturity Date specified above (except to the extent redeemed or repaid
prior to the Stated Maturity Date), and to pay interest on the principal or face
amount as set forth above at the Interest Rate per annum specified above, until
the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment, Reference

Redemption Date or Optional Repayment Date (if specified as repayable at the

Maturity Date, Redemption Date and Optional Repayment Date and the date on which
principal or an installment of principal is due and payable by declaration of
acceleration pursuant to the Indenture being referred to hereinafter as a

Payment Date, as the case may be, and no interest shall accrue with respect to

on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted Interest"), shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder 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 the Holder of this Note not less than
10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any
other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

of interest applicable to this Note, its payment dates or any other matter
relating hereto may be modified as specified in an Addendum relating hereto if
