payment of the principal of and interest on such bond, on or after the
respective due dates expressed in such bond, or to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be
impaired or affected by any such supplemental indenture without the consent of
such holder, and (b) that no such modification or alteration shall reduce the
proportions of
<PAGE>

                                       11

bondholders' consents required as aforesaid: such proportions to be determined

during the respective twelve-month periods beginning August 15 in each of the

as a percentage of principal amount plus in each case accrued interest to the
date fixed for redemption.

      1983       112.25%            1988       103.50%
      1984       110.50             1989       101.75

      1987       105.25             1992       100.00

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the bonds of Series Q may be redeemed
prior to August 15, 1988 directly or indirectly from the proceeds of or in
anticipation of any refunding operation involving the incurring of debt which
has an interest cost to the Corporation of less than 12.333% per annum.

      Notice of redemption shall be given by publication once in each of three
separate calendar weeks in one daily newspaper printed in the English language
of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of New York,
and in one similarly printed daily newspaper of general circulation in the City
and County of San Francisco, California (the first of such publications to be

bonds to be redeemed not less than thirty nor more than sixty days before the

sixty days before the redemption date, in lieu of such notice being given by
publication, all subject to the conditions and as more fully set forth in the
Indenture, including (1) the condition that failure to give notice of any such

<PAGE>

                                       12

the mailing thereof shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the
redemption of any bonds so to be redeemed if notice by publication, if required,
is duly given and (2) the condition that, if any notice of redemption of bonds
shall state that it is subject to receipt by or for the account of the Trustee
on or before the date fixed for redemption of moneys applicable to and
sufficient for such redemption, such bonds shall not become due and payable by
virtue of such notice unless such moneys shall be held by or for the account of
the Trustee on or before the date fixed for redemption. If this bond or any
portion hereof is called for redemption and payment duly provided as specified
in the Indenture, interest shall cease to accrue on this bond or such portion
hereof from and after the date fixed for such redemption.

      In case an event of default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur, the
principal of all bonds then outstanding under the Indenture may be declared or
become due and payable upon the conditions and in the manner and with the effect
provided in the Indenture.

      This bond is transferable by the registered owner hereof at the office or
agency of the Corporation in said City and County of San Francisco, in said City
of Los Angeles, in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York and in such other
place or places as the Corporation may designate at any time or from time to

coupons, of authorized denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate
principal amount, will be issue to the transferee or transferees in exchange for
this bond and at any of said offices or agencies for a like aggregate principal
amount of other such fully registered bonds of authorized denominations; all in
the manner and subject to the conditions as provided in the Indenture.

      No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the
interest on this bond or for any claim based hereon or on the Indenture or any
indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, director
or officer, past, present or future, of the Corporation, or of any predecessor
or successor corporation, either directly or through the Corporation, or any
such 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 waived and released by every registered owner hereof by the
acceptance of this bond and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof,
and being likewise waived and released by the terms of the Indenture.

      This bond shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose or be
entitled to any benefit under the Indenture until Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association, or its successor as Trustee under the Indenture, or an
authenticating agent, shall have signed the form of certificate endorsed hereon.

owners of the bonds and of the Trustee or trustees in respect thereof, the terms

holders of not less than two-thirds (2/3) in principal amount of the bonds at
the time outstanding, and, in case one or more, but less than all, of the series

respective due dates expressed in such bond, or to institute suit for the
enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be
impaired or affected by any such supplemental indenture without the consent of
such holder, and (b) that no such modification or alteration shall

agency of the Corporation in said City and County of San Francisco, in said City
of Los Angeles, in the borough of Manhattan, City of New York and in such other

time, and thereupon a new fully registered bond or bonds of said series, without
coupons, of authorized denomination or denominations, of a like aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the transferee or transferees in exchange
for this bond; and at any of said offices or agencies fully registered bonds of
Series U, without coupons, are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal
amount of other such fully registered bonds of authorized denominations; all in
the manner and subject to the conditions as provided in the Indenture.

     No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the
interest on this bond or for any claim based hereon or on the Indenture or any
indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, director
or officer, past, present or future, of the Corporation, or of any predecessor
or successor corporation, either directly or through the Corporation, or any
such 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 waived and released by every
registered owner hereof by the acceptance of this bond and as part of the
consideration for the issue hereof, and being likewise waived and released by
the terms of the Indenture.

     This bond shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose or be
entitled to any benefit under the Indenture until Bankers Trust Company of
California, N.A., or its successor as Trustee under the Indenture, or an
