of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on this Bond being redeemed, discounted to the date fixed for
redemption on a semi-

4

annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Yield plus 15 basis points, plus in each
case accrued and unpaid interest to the date fixed for redemption.

         "Treasury Yield" means, for any date fixed for redemption, the rate per year equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to
maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its
principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for the date fixed for redemption.

         "Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment
Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term to stated maturity of this Bond 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 Bond.

         "Comparable Treasury Price" means, for any date fixed for redemption, (1) the average of the bid and asked prices for the
Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) on the third business day preceding the
date fixed for redemption, as set forth in the daily statistical release (or any successor release) published by the Federal Reserve
Bank of New York and designated "Composite 3:30 p.m. Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" or (2) if that release (or any
successor release) is not published or does not contain those prices on that business day, (A) the average of the Reference Treasury

Government securities dealer in New York City (a "Primary Treasury Dealer") designated by, and not affiliated with Citigroup and

preceding the date fixed for redemption.

         If the Company elects to redeem fewer than all the Series 2004F Bonds, The Bank of New York, as Trustee, will select the
particular bonds to be redeemed on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method of random selection, if any, that The Bank of New
York, as Trustee, deems fair and appropriate.

         Any notice of redemption, at the Company's option, may state that the redemption will be conditional upon receipt by the
paying agent, on or prior to the date fixed for the redemption, of money sufficient to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest, if any, on the Series 2004F Bonds to be redeemed and that if the money has not been so received, the notice will be of no
force and effect and the Company will not be required to redeem this Bond.

         The Trust Indenture makes provision for a Special Trust Fund and permits the use of moneys therein for the purpose, among
others, of redeeming or purchasing this Bond.

         If default shall be made in the payment of any installment of principal of or interest on this Bond or in the performance or
observance of any of the covenants and agreements contained in the Trust Indenture, and such default shall continue as provided in
the Trust Indenture, then the principal of this Bond may be declared and become due and payable as provided in the Trust Indenture.

principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or at such other agency or agencies as may be designated by the Company,

such surrender hereof, and the payment of charges, a new registered bond or bonds of this series, of an equal aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the transferee in lieu hereof, as provided in the Trust Indenture.

         The terms of the Trust Indenture may be modified as set forth in the Trust Indenture; provided, however, that, among other
things, (1) the obligation of the Company to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on all bonds outstanding under
the Trust Indenture, as at the time in effect, shall continue unimpaired, (2) no modification shall give any of said bonds any
preference over any other of said bonds, and (3) no modification shall authorize the creation of any lien prior to the lien of the
Trust Indenture on any of the trust property.

         No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest on this Bond, or any part
thereof, or for or on account of the consideration herefor, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or of the
Trust Indenture, against any past, present or future stockholder, officer or director of the

6

Company or of any predecessor or successor company, whether for amounts unpaid on stock subscriptions, or by virtue of any
statue or constitution, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty, or because of any representation or inference arising
from the capitalization of the Company or of such predecessor or successor company, or otherwise; all such liability being, by the
acceptance hereof and as a part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly released.

         This Bond shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until it shall have been authenticated by the execution of the
certificate of authentication hereon of The Bank of New York, as Trustee, or its successor in trust.
