                              5.85% NOTES DUE 2012

INTERNATIONAL PAPER COMPANY, a New York corporation (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 _____ Dollars ($_____) on October 30, 2012, and
to pay interest on said principal sum from the date of original issuance, or
from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid or
duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each
year (each such date, an "Interest Payment Date") commencing April 30, 2003, at
the rate of 5.85% per annum until the principal hereof shall have become due
and payable, and on any overdue principal and premium, if any, and (without
duplication and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable
under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the same rate
per annum compounded semi-annually. The amount of interest payable for any
period less than a full interest period will be computed on the basis of a
360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a partial
month in such period. In the event that any date on which interest is payable
on the Notes is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on
such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and
without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) with the
same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was originally
payable, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar
year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in
each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. The interest
installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the person
in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities, as defined in
said Indenture) is registered at the close of business on the regular record
date for such interest installment, which shall be the close of business on the
April 15 or October 15 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be,
immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest installment
not punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to
the registered Holders 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 to be fixed by the
Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof shall be
given to the registered Holders of this series of Notes not less than 10 days
prior to such special record date, or may be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by

                                       2
<PAGE>

such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. The principal of
(and premium, if any) and the interest on this Note shall be payable at the
office or agency of the Trustee maintained for that purpose in any coin or
currency of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal
tender for payment of public and private debts.

Accrued interest that is not paid on the applicable Interest Payment Date will
bear additional interest on the amount thereof at the Coupon Rate, compounded
semi- annually and computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months and the actual days elapsed in a partial month in such period.

This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture hereinafter
referred to, be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until the
Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf of
the Trustee.

The provisions of this Note are continued on the reverse side hereof and such
continued provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though
fully set forth at this place.

                                REVERSE OF NOTE

     This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Notes of the Company
(herein sometimes referred to as the "Notes"), specified in the Indenture, all
issued or to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture
dated as of April 12, 1999, duly executed and delivered between the Company and
The Bank of New York as Trustee (the "Trustee"), as supplemented by each of (i)
the 5.85% Notes due 2012 Supplemental Indenture dated as of October 29, 2002
and (ii) the 5.85% Notes due 2012 Supplemental Indenture dated as of November
5, 2002 (collectively, the "Supplemented Indentures"), each between the Company
and the Trustee (the Indenture, as so supplemented by the Supplemented
Indentures, the "Indenture"), to which Indenture and all Indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights,
limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the
Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Notes. By the terms of the
Indenture, the Notes are issuable in series that may vary as to amount, date of
maturity, rate of interest and in other respects as provided in the Indenture.
This series of Notes is initially offered in aggregate principal amount as
specified in said Supplemental Indentures.

     The Company shall have the right to redeem this Note at the option of the
Company, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part (an "Optional
Redemption"), at a redemption price (the "Optional Redemption Price") equal to
the greater of:

     (i) 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the
Redemption Date; or

     (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption Date)
discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day
year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis
points plus accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the
Redemption Date.

     Any redemption pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs will be
made upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice before the
Redemption Date to the Holders, at the Optional Redemption Price. If the Notes
are only partially redeemed by the Company pursuant to an Optional Redemption,
the Notes will be redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other method utilized
by the Trustee; provided that if at the time of redemption the Notes are
registered as a Global Note, the Depositary shall determine, in accordance with
its procedures, the principal amount of such Notes held by each Holder of Notes
to be redeemed.

                                       5
<PAGE>

     In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes
of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of
the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

     In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have
occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Notes may be declared,
and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with
the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

     The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee,
with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Notes of each series affected at the time outstanding,
as defined in the Indenture, to execute 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 any supplemental indenture or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes; provided, however, that no
such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the fixed maturity of any Notes of
any series, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or
extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any premium payable
upon the redemption thereof, without the consent of the Holder of each Note so
affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Notes, the Holders of
which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the
consent of the Holders of each Note then outstanding and affected thereby. The
Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any series at the time outstanding
affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the Notes of such series,
to waive any past default in the performance of any of the covenants contained
in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture with respect to such
series, and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal
of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes of such series. Any such
consent or waiver by the registered Holder of this Note (unless revoked as
provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and
upon all future Holders and owners of this Note and of any Note issued in
exchange therefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or
otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Note.

     No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note 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 Note at the time and place and at the rate and in the money
herein prescribed.

     As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, this Note is transferable by the registered Holder hereof on the
Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration
of transfer at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City and State of New
York accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by the registered
Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or
more new Notes of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
No service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge payable in relation thereto.

     Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the
Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem and
treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof (whether or not
this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or
writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the
purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and
premium, if any, and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and
neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, premium, if
any, or the interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise
in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any
incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as
such, of the Company or of any 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, by the
acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issuance hereof,
expressly waived and released.

     The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without
coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. This
Global Note is exchangeable for Notes in definitive form only under certain
limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture
and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, Notes of this
series so issued are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by
the Holder surrendering the same.

     All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have
the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

HOLDER WILL, AND EACH SUBSEQUENT HOLDER IS REQUIRED TO, NOTIFY ANY PURCHASER OF
THIS SECURITY FROM IT OF THE RESALE RESTRICTIONS REFERRED TO IN (A) ABOVE.

         BY ITS ACQUISITION HEREOF OR OF A BENEFICIAL INTEREST HEREIN, THE
HOLDER REPRESENTS THAT IT (1) IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER WITHIN THE
MEANING OF RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND IS ACQUIRING THE NOTES FOR
ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR FOR THE ACCOUNT OF ONE OR MORE QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL
BUYERS AND THAT IT EXERCISES SOLE INVESTMENT DISCRETION WITH RESPECT TO EACH
SUCH ACCOUNT OR (2) ACQUIRED SUCH SECURITY IN A TRANSACTION THAT DID NOT
REQUIRE REGISTRATION UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT.

         PRIOR TO THE REGISTRATION OF ANY TRANSFER IN ACCORDANCE WITH (A)(III)
ABOVE, THE COMPANY RESERVES THE RIGHT TO REQUIRE THE DELIVERY OF SUCH LEGAL
OPINIONS, CERTIFICATIONS OR OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY REASONABLY BE REQUIRED IN
ORDER TO DETERMINE THAT THE PROPOSED TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN COMPLIANCE WITH

          (b) Each Global Note shall also bear the following legend on the face
thereof:

         THIS NOTE IS A GLOBAL NOTE WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE INDENTURE
HEREINAFTER REFERRED TO AND IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF A DEPOSITORY OR A
NOMINEE OF A DEPOSITORY. THIS NOTE IS EXCHANGEABLE FOR NOTES REGISTERED IN THE

<PAGE>

TRANSFER OF THIS NOTE AS A WHOLE BY THE DEPOSITORY TO A NOMINEE OF THE
DEPOSITORY OR BY A NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY TO THE DEPOSITORY OR ANOTHER
NOMINEE OF THE DEPOSITORY) MAY BE REGISTERED EXCEPT IN LIMITED CIRCUMSTANCES.

         UNLESS THIS NOTE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, TO THE ISSUER OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF
TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY NOTE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF
CEDE & CO. OR SUCH OTHER NAME AS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF
THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY AND ANY PAYMENT HEREON IS MADE TO CEDE & CO., ANY
TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE THEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY A PERSON IS
WRONGFUL SINCE THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

          (c) (i) If the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and
such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require)
that any Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144(k) under the
Securities Act (or a successor provision) and that the Restricted Legend is no
longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of
such Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with
the Securities Act, or

         (ii) after an Initial Note is (x) sold pursuant to an effective
         registration statement under the Securities Act, pursuant to the
         Registration Rights Agreement or otherwise, or (y) exchanged for an
         Exchange Note,

the Company may instruct the Trustee to cancel such Note and issue to the
Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note of like tenor and amount,
registered in the name of the Holder thereof (or its transferee), that does not
bear the Restricted Legend, and the Trustee will comply with such instruction.

         SECTION 2.05. Special Transfer Provisions. Unless and until an Initial
Note is exchanged for an Exchange Note in connection with an effective
Registration pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the following
provisions shall apply:

         (a) The transfer or exchange of any Note (or a beneficial interest
therein) that bears the Restricted Legend may only be made in compliance with
the provisions of the Restricted Legend.

                                       7
<PAGE>

         (b) The Trustee will retain copies of all certificates, opinions and
other documents received in connection with the transfer or exchange of a Note
(or a beneficial interest therein), and the Company will have the right to
inspect and make copies thereof at any reasonable time upon written notice to
the Trustee.

         (c) By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement
Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of
such Note set forth in this Supplemental Indenture and in the Private Placement
Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Note only as provided in this
Supplemental Indenture. The Registrar shall not register a transfer of any Note
unless such transfer complies with the restrictions on transfer of such Note
set forth in this Supplemental Indenture. In connection with any transfer of
Notes, each Holder agrees by its acceptance of the Notes to furnish the
Registrar or the Company such certifications, legal opinions or other
information as either of them may reasonably require to confirm that such
transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or a transaction not
subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act; provided that
the Registrar shall not be required to determine (but may rely on a
determination made by the Company with respect to) the sufficiency of any such
certifications, legal opinions or other information.

         The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other
written communications received pursuant to Section 3.5 of the Indenture or
this Section 2.05. The Company shall have the right to inspect and make copies
of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable
time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

         The Trustee shall have no obligation or duty to monitor, determine or
inquire as to compliance with any restrictions on transfer imposed under this
Supplemental Indenture or under applicable law with respect to any transfer of
any interest in any Note (including any transfers between or among members of,
or participants in, the Depository or beneficial owners of interests in any
Global Note) other than to require delivery of such certificates and other
documentation or evidence as are expressly required by, and to do so if and
when expressly required by the terms of, this Supplemental Indenture, and to
examine the same to determine substantial compliance as to form with the
express requirements hereof.

         (d) A Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in part, only
to another nominee of the Depository, or to a successor Depository selected or
approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depository.

         (e) If at any time the Depository notifies the Company that it is
unwilling or unable to continue as Depository or if at any time the Depository
for such series shall no longer be registered or in good standing under the
Securities

                                       8
<PAGE>

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or other applicable statute or regulation,
and a successor Depository for such series is not appointed by the Company
within 90 days after the Company receives such notice or becomes aware of such
condition, as the case may be, the Company will execute, and, subject to
Article III of the Indenture, the Trustee, upon written notice from the
Company, will authenticate and make available for delivery the Notes in
definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in
an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Note
in exchange for the Global Note. In addition, the Company may at any time
determine that the Notes shall no longer be represented by a Global Note. In
such event the Company will execute, and subject to Section 3.5 of the
Indenture, the Trustee, upon receipt of an Officers' Certificate evidencing
such determination by the Company, will authenticate and deliver the Notes in
definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized denominations, and in
an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the Global Note
in exchange for the Global Note. Upon the exchange of the Global Note for such
Notes in definitive registered form without coupons, in authorized
denominations, the Global Note shall be cancelled by the Trustee. Such Notes in
definitive registered form issued in exchange for the Global Note shall be
registered in such names and in such authorized denominations as the
Depositary, pursuant to instructions from its direct or indirect participants
or otherwise, shall instruct the Trustee. The Trustee shall deliver such Notes
to the Depositary for delivery to the Persons in whose names such Notes are so
registered.

         SECTION 2.06.  Interest.

         (a) Each Note will bear interest at the rate of 5.85% per annum (the
"Coupon Rate") from the original date of issuance until the principal thereof
becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal and (to the extent that
payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue
installment of interest at the Coupon Rate, compounded semi-annually, payable
semi-annually in arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year (each, an
"Interest Payment Date") commencing on April 30, 2003, to the Person in whose
name such Note or any predecessor Note is registered, at the close of business
on the regular record date for such interest installment, which shall be the
close of business on the April 15 or October 15 (whether or not a Business
Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date.

         (b) The amount of interest payable for any period less than a full
interest period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve
30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a partial month in such period. In
the event that any date on which interest is payable on the Notes is not a
Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on
the next succeeding

                                       9
<PAGE>

day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in
respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made on the
date such payment was originally payable, except that, if such Business Day is
in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect
as if made on such date.

         (c) Accrued interest that is not paid on the applicable Interest
Payment Date will bear additional interest on the amount thereof at the Coupon
Rate, compounded semi-annually and computed on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a partial month in such
period. The amount of additional interest payable for any full interest period
will be computed by dividing the Coupon Rate by two.

         (d) In the event that a Registration Default (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, the Company shall pay additional
interest (in addition to the interest otherwise due herein) ("Additional
Interest") to the Holder during the period immediately following the occurrence
of any such Registration Default in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum
(regardless of the number of Registration Defaults) from and including the date
on which any such Registration Default shall occur (subject to the terms of the
Registration Rights Agreement) to but excluding the date on which all such
Registration Defaults have been cured. The Company shall pay amounts due in
respect of Additional Interest on each Interest Payment Date (or, if the
Company shall default in the payment of interest on any Interest Payment Date,
on the date such interest is otherwise paid as provided in the Indenture).

         There shall also be payable in respect of the Note all Additional
Interest that may have accrued on such Note for which the Note was exchanged
(as defined in such Note) pursuant to the Exchange Offer, such Additional
Interest to be calculated in accordance with the terms of such Note and payable
at the same time and in the same manner as periodic interest on such Note.

Supplemental Indenture, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Notes,
in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, at a redemption price
(the "Optional Redemption Price") equal to the greater of:

               (i) 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid
          interest to the Redemption Date; or

               (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled
          payments of principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to
          the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a
          semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve
          30-day months at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points plus accrued
          interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the Redemption
          Date.

         Any redemption pursuant to the preceding paragraph will be made upon
not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice before the Redemption Date
to each Holder of the Notes, at the Optional Redemption Price. If the Notes are
only partially redeemed pursuant to this Section 3.01(a), the Notes will be
redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other method utilized by the Trustee;
provided, that if at the time of redemption the Notes are registered as a
Global Note, the Depositary shall determine, in accordance with its procedures,
the principal amount of such Notes held by each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.
The Optional Redemption Price shall be paid prior to 12:00 noon, New York time,
on the date of such redemption or at such earlier time as the Company
determines provided that the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an amount
sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price by 10:00 a.m., New York time,

Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. on the third Business Day preceding such
Redemption Date.

by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which establishes
yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to
constant maturity under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," for the
maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is
within three months before or after the Remaining Life, yields for the two
published maturities

                                       12
<PAGE>

most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue shall be determined
and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on
a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (ii) if such release
(or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the

from the date of original issuance, or from the most recent interest payment
date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in
arrears on April 30 and October 30 of each year (each such date, an "Interest
Payment Date") commencing April 30, 2003, at the rate of 5.85% per annum until
the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, and on any overdue
principal and premium, if any, and (without duplication and to the extent that
payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue
installment of interest at the same rate per annum compounded semi-annually.
The amount of interest payable for any period less than a full interest period
will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the
actual days elapsed in a partial month in such period. In the event that any
date on which interest is payable on the Notes is not a Business Day, then
payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next
succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other
payment in respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made
on the date such payment was originally payable, except that, if such Business
Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect
as if made on such date. The interest installment so payable, and punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in
the Indenture, be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
Predecessor Securities, as defined in said Indenture) is registered at the
close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment,
which shall be the close of business on the April 15 or October 15 (whether or
not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately preceding such Interest
Payment Date. Any such interest installment not punctually paid or duly
provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holders 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 to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such
defaulted interest, notice whereof shall be given to the registered Holders of
this series of Notes not less than 10 days prior to such special record date,
or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and
upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully
provided in the Indenture. The principal of (and premium, if any) and the
interest on this Note shall be payable at the office or agency of the Trustee
maintained for that purpose in any coin or currency of the United States of
America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and
private debts.

         Accrued interest that is not paid on the applicable Interest Payment
Date will bear additional interest on the amount thereof at the Coupon Rate,
compounded semi-annually and computed on the basis of a 360-day year of

                                       16

twelve 30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a partial month in such
period.

         This Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to, be valid or become obligatory for any purpose until
the Certificate of Authentication hereon shall have been signed by or on behalf
of the Trustee.

         The provisions of this Note are continued on the reverse side hereof
and such continued provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as
though fully set forth at this place.

         This is one of the Securities of the series designated herein referred
to in the within-mentioned Indenture.

Dated_____________________

The Bank of New York,
as Trustee

By:________________________
     Authorized Signatory

                           (FORM OF REVERSE OF NOTE)

         This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Notes of the Company
(herein sometimes referred to as the "Notes"), specified in the Indenture, all
issued or to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture
dated as of April 12, 1999, duly executed and delivered between the Company and
The Bank of New York as Trustee (the "Trustee"), as supplemented by the 5.85%
Notes due 2012 Supplemental Indenture dated as of October 29, 2002, between the
Company and the Trustee (the Indenture, as so supplemented, the "Indenture"),
to which Indenture and all Indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby
made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of
the Notes. By the terms of the Indenture, the Notes are issuable in series that
may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in other respects
as provided in the Indenture. This series of Notes is initially offered in
aggregate principal amount as specified in said Supplemental Indenture.

         The Company shall have the right to redeem this Note at the option of
the Company, without premium or penalty, in whole or in part (an "Optional
Redemption"), at a redemption price (the "Optional Redemption Price") equal to
the greater of:

         (i) 100% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to
the Redemption Date; or

         (ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments
of principal and interest (exclusive of interest accrued to the Redemption
Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a
360-day

                                       19
<PAGE>

year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 30 basis
points plus accrued interest on the principal amount being redeemed to the
Redemption Date.

         Any redemption pursuant to the preceding paragraph will be made upon
not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice before the Redemption Date
to the Holders, at the Optional Redemption Price. If the Notes are only
partially redeemed by the Company pursuant to an Optional Redemption, the Notes
will be redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other method utilized by the
Trustee; provided that if at the time of redemption the Notes are registered as
a Global Note, the Depositary shall determine, in accordance with its
procedures, the principal amount of such Notes held by each Holder of Notes to
be redeemed.

         In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or
Notes of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the
name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

         [In the event that a Registration Default (as defined in the
Registration Rights Agreement) occurs, then the Company shall pay additional
interest (in addition to the interest otherwise due hereon) ("Additional
Interest") to the Holder during the period immediately following the occurrence
of any such Registration Default in an amount equal to 0.25% per annum
(regardless of the number of Registration Defaults) from and including the date
on which any such Registration Default shall occur (subject to the terms of the
Registration Rights Agreement) to but excluding the date on which all such
Registration Defaults have been cured. The Company shall pay amounts due in
respect of Additional Interest on each Interest Payment Date (or, if the
Company shall default in the payment of interest on any Interest Payment Date,
on the date such interest is otherwise paid as provided in the Indenture).]1

         [There shall also be payable in respect of this Note all Additional
Interest that may have accrued on the Note for which this Note was exchanged
(as defined in such Note) pursuant to the Exchange Offer, such Additional
Interest to be calculated in accordance with the terms of such Note and payable
at the same time and in the same manner as periodic interest on this Note.]2

         In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have
occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Notes may be declared,
and

         1  To be included in Initial Notes not Exchange Notes.
         2  To be included in Exchange Notes.

upon such declaration shall become, due and payable, in the manner, with the
effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.

         The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the
Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series affected at the time
outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, to execute 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 any supplemental
indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes;
provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the
fixed maturity of any Notes of any series, or reduce the principal amount
thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon,
or reduce any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, without the consent
of the Holder of each Note so affected, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage
of Notes, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental
indenture, without the consent of the Holders of each Note then outstanding and
affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders
of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of any series at the
time outstanding affected thereby, on behalf of all of the Holders of the Notes
of such series, to waive any past default in the performance of any of the
covenants contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the Indenture
with respect to such series, and its consequences, except a default in the
payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Notes
of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the registered Holder of this
Note (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture) shall be conclusive and
binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders and owners of this Note
and of any Note issued in exchange therefor or in place hereof (whether by
registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any
notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.

         No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note 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 Note at the time and place and at the rate and in the money
herein prescribed.

         As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, this Note is transferable by the registered Holder hereof on
the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Note for
registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City and
State of New York accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of
transfer in form satisfactory to the Company or the Trustee duly executed by
the registered Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and
thereupon one or more new

                                       21
<PAGE>

Notes of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount
and series will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No
service charge will be made for any such transfer, but the Company may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge
payable in relation thereto.

         Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note,
the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and the Security Registrar may deem
and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof (whether or
not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or
writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar) for the
purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof and
premium, if any, and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and
neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any Security
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

         No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, or the interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or
otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture,
against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or
future, as such, of the Company or of any 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, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the
issuance hereof, expressly waived and released.

         The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without
coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. This
Global Note is exchangeable for Notes in definitive form only under certain
limited circumstances set forth in the Indenture. As provided in the Indenture
and subject to certain limitations herein and therein set forth, Notes of this
series so issued are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of
Notes of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by
the Holder surrendering the same.

         All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

         THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK SHALL GOVERN THE INDENTURE
AND THE NOTES WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW.
