     FIRST SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE, dated as of June 6, 2008 (the “First Supplemental
Indenture”), between THE HARTFORD FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), having its principal office at One Hartford Plaza, Hartford, Connecticut 06155,
and THE BANK OF NEW YORK TRUST COMPANY, N.A., a national banking association incorporated and
existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Trustee (hereinafter called the
“Trustee”).

RECITALS OF THE COMPANY

     The Company and the Trustee entered into a Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated as of June 6,
2008 (as it may from time to time be supplemented or amended, the “Indenture”). Section 901
of the Indenture provides that the Company and the Trustee may, without the consent of any Holder,
enter into a supplemental indenture to provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms
of the Securities of any series as provided in Section 201 or 301 thereof.

     Pursuant to Sections 201 and 301 of the Indenture, the Company desires to provide for the
issuance and establishment of a series of Securities under the Indenture, and the form and terms
thereof, as hereinafter set forth.

     The Company has requested that the Trustee execute and deliver this First Supplemental
Indenture. The Company has delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel and an Officers’
Certificate pursuant to Sections 102 and 903 of the Indenture to the effect, among other things,
that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture to the Trustee’s execution and delivery
of this First Supplemental Indenture have been complied with. All acts and things necessary have
been done and performed to make this First Supplemental Indenture enforceable in accordance with
its terms, and the execution and delivery of this First Supplemental Indenture has been duly
authorized in all respects.

     NOW, THEREFORE: For and in consideration of the premises and the purchase of the Debentures
(as herein defined) by the Holders thereof, it is mutually covenanted and agreed, for the equal and
proportionate benefit of all Holders of the Debentures, as follows:

ARTICLE 1

DEFINITIONS

     Section 1.01 Definitions. For all purposes of this First Supplemental Indenture, except as
otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires:

 

 

     (a) The terms defined in the Indenture have the same meaning when used in this First
Supplemental Indenture unless otherwise defined herein.

     (b) The terms defined in this Article have the meanings assigned to them in this Article, and
include the plural as well as the singular.

     (c) the words “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to
this First Supplemental Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article, Section or other
subdivision, and any reference to an Article, Section or other subdivision refers to an Article,
Section or other subdivision of this First Supplemental Indenture.

     (d) Any reference herein to “interest” shall include any Additional Interest.

     In addition, the following terms used in this First Supplemental Indenture have the following
respective meanings:

     “Additional Interest” means the interest, if any, that shall accrue on any interest on
the Debentures the payment of which has not been made on the applicable Interest Payment Date.

     “Alternative Payment Mechanism” means, with respect to any securities or combination
of securities (together in this definition, “securities”), provisions in the related
transaction documents requiring the Company to issue (or use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to
issue) one or more types of APM Qualifying Securities for the purpose of raising eligible proceeds
at least equal to the deferred and unpaid Distributions on such securities and apply the net
proceeds to pay such Distributions on such securities, commencing on the earlier of (x) the first
Distribution Date after commencement of a deferral period on which the Company pays current
Distributions on such securities and (y) the fifth anniversary of the commencement of such deferral
period if on such date such deferral period has not ended, and that:

     (a) define “eligible proceeds” to mean, for purposes of such Alternative Payment
Mechanism, the net proceeds (after underwriters’ or placement agents’ fees, commissions or
discounts and other expenses relating to the issuance or sale of the relevant securities, and
including the fair market value of property received by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as
consideration for such securities) that the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall have received
during the 180 days prior to the relevant Distribution Date from the sale of APM Qualifying
Securities, provided that in the case of APM Qualifying Securities that are Qualifying Preferred
Stock or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock the amount of net proceeds included in eligible
proceeds shall not exceed the Preferred Cap;

2

 

     (b) permit the Company to pay current Distributions on any Distribution Date out of any source
of funds but (i) require the Company to pay deferred Distributions only out of eligible proceeds
and (ii) prohibit the Company from paying deferred Distributions out of any source of funds other
than eligible proceeds unless an event of default with respect to such securities has occurred;

     (c) if deferral of Distributions continues for more than one year (or such shorter period as
provided for in the terms of such securities), require the Company and its Subsidiaries not to
repay, redeem or purchase any of its securities ranking junior to or equally with any APM
Qualifying Securities on the liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Company, the proceeds of
which were used to pay deferred interest during the relevant deferral period until at least one
year after all deferred Distributions have been paid (“Repurchase Restriction”), other than
the following (none of which shall be restricted or prohibited by a Repurchase Restriction):

     (i) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of Common Stock in connection with
any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit
of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

     (ii) purchases of Common Stock pursuant to a contractually binding requirement to buy
Common Stock entered into prior to the beginning of the related deferral period, including
under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan;

     (iii) as a result of any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of
the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of one of the Company’s Subsidiaries) for
any class or series of the Company’s capital stock or of any class or series of the
Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock;

     (iv) the purchase of or payment of cash in lieu of fractional interests in the
Company’s capital stock in accordance with the conversion or exchange provisions of such
capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged; or

     (v) the redemption or repurchase of rights in accordance with any stockholders’ rights
plan;

     (d) limit the obligation of the Company to issue (or to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to
issue) APM Qualifying Securities that are Common Stock or Qualifying Warrants, prior to the fifth
anniversary of any deferral period, to the extent that the number of shares of Common Stock issued
or issuable upon the exercise of such Qualifying Warrants plus the number of shares of Common Stock
previously issued or

3

 

issuable on the exercise of Qualifying Warrants previously issued during the applicable
deferral period would exceed 2% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common
Stock set forth in the Company’s most recent publicly available financial statements

 (the “Common Cap”);

     (e) limit the right of the Company to issue APM Qualifying Securities that are Qualifying
Preferred Stock or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock, to the extent that the net proceeds of
any issuance of such Qualifying Preferred Stock or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock applied,
together with the net proceeds of all prior issuances of Qualifying Preferred Stock and any
still-outstanding Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock applied during the current and all prior
deferral periods, to pay deferred Distributions on the securities would exceed 25% of the
liquidation or principal amount of the securities that are the subject of the related Alternative
Payment Mechanism (the “Preferred Cap”);

     (f) notwithstanding the Common Cap and the Preferred Cap, permit the Company, at its option,
to impose a limitation on the Company’s obligation to issue APM Qualifying Securities consisting of
Common Stock and Qualifying Warrants to a maximum issuance cap to be set at the Company’s
discretion and otherwise substantially similar to the Share Cap, provided that such
limitation will be subject to the Company’s agreement to use Commercially Reasonable Efforts (i) to
increase such limitation when reached to enable the Company to simultaneously satisfy its future
fixed or contingent obligations under such securities and other securities and derivative
instruments that provide for settlement or payment in shares of Common Stock or (ii) if the Company
cannot increase such limitation as contemplated in the preceding clause, by requesting its Board of
Directors to adopt a resolution for a stockholder vote at the next annual meeting of stockholders
of the Company to increase the number of shares of the Company’s authorized Common Stock for
purposes of satisfying the Company’s obligations to pay deferred Distributions;

     (g) in the case of securities other than Qualifying Preferred Stock, include a Bankruptcy
Claim Limitation Provision; and

     (h) permit the Company, at its option, to provide that if the Company is involved in a merger,
consolidation, amalgamation, binding share exchange or conveyance, business combination,
recapitalization, transfer or lease of assets substantially as an entirety to any other Person or a
similar transaction (a “Business Combination”) where immediately after the consummation of
the Business Combination more than 50% of the voting stock of the surviving or resulting entity or
the Person to whom all or substantially all of the Company’s property or assets are conveyed,
transferred or leased in such Business Combination is owned by the stockholders of the other party
to the Business Combination or Person to whom all or substantially all of the Company’s property or
assets are conveyed, transferred or leased, then clauses (a), (b)

4

Distribution Date following the date of consummation of the Business Combination;

provided (and it being understood) that:

     (1) the Company shall not be obligated to issue (or to use Commercially Reasonable
Efforts to issue) APM Qualifying Securities for so long as a Market Disruption Event has
occurred and is continuing;

     (2) if, due to a Market Disruption Event or otherwise, the eligible proceeds are not
sufficient to pay all deferred Distributions on any Distribution Date, the Company will
apply the eligible proceeds to pay accrued and unpaid deferred Distributions on such
Distribution Date in chronological order, subject to the Common Cap, Preferred Cap and
Share Cap, as applicable; and

     (3) if the Company has outstanding more than one class or series of securities under
which it is obligated to sell a type of APM Qualifying Securities and apply some part of
the proceeds to the payment of deferred Distributions, then on any date and for any period
the amount of net proceeds received by the Company from those sales and available for

(e) of this definition) shall be applied to such securities on a pro rata basis in
proportion to the total amounts that are due on such securities.

bankruptcy law with respect to the issuer, limit the claim of the holders of such securities to
Distributions that accumulate during (i) any deferral period, in the case of securities that have
an Alternative Payment Mechanism but no Mandatory

5

time of issuance of the preferred stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments.

     “Mandatory Trigger Provision” means, as to any security or combination of securities,
provisions in the terms thereof or of the related transaction agreements that:

     (a) if the issuer of such securities fails to satisfy one or more financial tests set forth in
the terms of such securities or related transaction agreements and for so long as such failure
continues, prohibits the issuer from making payments of

9

 

Distributions on such securities from any source other than from the issuance and sale of APM

Limitation Provision;

     provided (and it being understood) that:

Efforts to issue) APM Qualifying Securities for so long as a Market Disruption Event has
occurred and is continuing;

     (ii) if, due to a Market Disruption Event or otherwise, the issuer is able to raise

Distributions on any Distribution Date, the issuer will apply any

10

 

available eligible proceeds to pay accrued and unpaid Distributions on the applicable
Distribution Date in chronological order subject to the Common Cap, Preferred Cap and Share
Cap, as applicable; and

     (iii) if the issuer has outstanding more than one class or series of securities under

the amount of net proceeds received by the issuer from those sales and available for
payment of deferred Distributions on such securities (in accordance with the Alternative
Payment Mechanism) shall be applied to such securities on a pro rata basis in proportion to

     No remedy other than Permitted Remedies shall arise by the terms of such securities or related

been deferred for one or more Distribution Periods that total together at least ten years.

events or sets of circumstances:

prices shall have been established on any such exchange or market by the Commission, the relevant
exchange or any other regulatory body or governmental authority having jurisdiction, and the
establishment of such minimum prices materially disrupts or otherwise has a material adverse effect
on trading in, or the issuance and sale of, the Common Stock;

(ii) if the Treasury Dealer determines that the price information is not reasonably
reflective of the actual bid-side price of the Treasury Security prevailing at 3:30 p.m., New York

     (ii) In the event the Company has delivered an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee
pursuant to clause (v) of this Section 2.02(a) in connection with any Quarterly Interest
Payment Date, the principal amount of the Debentures repayable on such Quarterly Interest
Payment Date shall be the principal amount set forth in the notice of repayment, if any,
accompanying such Officers’ Certificate, and shall be repaid on such Quarterly Interest
Payment Date pursuant to Article 5 hereof, and the remaining Debentures shall remain
Outstanding and shall be payable on the immediately succeeding Quarterly Interest Payment
Date or such earlier date on which they are redeemed pursuant to Article 4 hereof, become
due and payable pursuant to Section 502 of the Indenture or on the Final Maturity Date.

     (iii) The obligation of the Company to repay the Debentures pursuant to this
Section 2.02(a) on any date prior to the Final Maturity Date shall be subject to its
obligations under Article Twelve of the Indenture to the holders of Senior Indebtedness.

     (iv) Until the Debentures are paid in full:

     (A) the Company shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts, subject to the
occurrence and continuance of a Market Disruption Event, to raise sufficient net
cash proceeds from the issuance of Qualifying

23

 

Replacement Securities during a
180-day period ending on the date on which the Company delivers the Officers’
Certificate required by the first sentence of clause (v) of this Section 2.02(a)
and/or Section 5.01 (not more than 15 and not less than 10 Business Days prior to
the Scheduled Maturity Date) to permit repayment in full of the outstanding
principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest (other than any deferred
interest (including Additional Interest), which shall be paid only in accordance
with Section 2.06) on the Debentures on the Scheduled Maturity Date pursuant to
clause (i) of this Section 2.02(a); and

     (B) if the Company is unable for any reason to raise sufficient net cash
proceeds from the issuance of Qualifying Replacement Securities to permit repayment
in full of the Debentures on the Scheduled Maturity Date or any subsequent
Quarterly Interest Payment Date, the Company shall use Commercially Reasonable
Efforts, subject to the occurrence and continuance of a Market Disruption Event, to
raise sufficient net cash proceeds from the issuance of Qualifying Replacement
Securities during a 90-day period ending on the date on which the Company delivers
the Officers’ Certificate required by the first sentence of clause (v) of this
Section 2.02(a) and/or Section 5.01 (not more than 15 and not less than 10 Business
Days prior to the following Quarterly Interest Payment Date) to permit repayment in
full of the outstanding principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest (other
than any deferred interest (including Additional Interest), which shall be paid
only in accordance with Section 2.06) on the Debentures in full on such following
Quarterly Interest Payment Date pursuant to clause (i)(z) of this Section 2.02(a);
and

     (C) the Company shall apply any net cash proceeds from the issuance of
Qualifying Replacement Securities to the repayment of the Debentures as provided in
clause (vi) of this Section 2.02(a).

     (v) The Company shall, if it has not received sufficient net cash proceeds from the
issuance of Qualifying Replacement Securities pursuant to clause (iv) above in connection
with any Repayment Date, deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee no more than 15
and no less than 10 Business Days in advance of such Repayment Date stating the amount of
net cash proceeds, if any, received pursuant to clause (iv) above in connection with such
Repayment Date. The Company shall be excused from its obligation to sell Qualifying
Replacement Securities pursuant to clause (iv) above if it delivers an Officers’
Certificate to the
Trustee no more than 15 and no less than 10 Business Days in advance of such Repayment
Date certifying that: (A) a Market Disruption Event was existing and continuing
during the entire 180-day period preceding the date of such Officers’ Certificate or, in
the case of any Repayment Date after the Scheduled Maturity

24

 

Date, the entire 90-day period
preceding the date of such Officers’ Certificate; or (B)  the Company was unable
after Commercially Reasonable Efforts to raise sufficient net proceeds during such 180-day
period or 90-day period preceding the date of such Officers’ Certificate to permit
repayment of the Debentures in full. Each Officers’ Certificate delivered pursuant to the
first sentence of this clause (v), unless no principal amount of Debentures is to be repaid
on the applicable Repayment Date, shall be accompanied by a notice of repayment pursuant to
Section 5.01 (which shall be the notice of repayment required to be given to the Holders of
the Debentures under Section 5.03) setting forth the principal amount of the Debentures to
be repaid on such Repayment Date, if any, which amount shall be determined after giving
effect to clause (vi) of this Section 2.02(a).

     (vi) Net cash proceeds of the issuance of any Qualifying Replacement Securities shall
be applied to repayment of the Debentures on any Repayment Date in the following order of
priority: first, to pay deferred interest (including Additional Interest) to the extent of
Eligible Proceeds received pursuant to Section 2.06; second, to pay current interest to the
extent not paid from other sources and; third, to repay the Outstanding principal of the
Debentures; provided that if the Company is obligated to sell Qualifying
Replacement Securities and apply the net proceeds to payments of principal of or interest
on any outstanding securities other than the Debentures then (i) on any date and
for any period the amount of net proceeds received by the Company from those sales and
available for such payments shall be applied to the Debentures and such other outstanding
securities having the same scheduled maturity date as the Debentures, pro rata in
accordance with their respective Outstanding principal amounts and (ii) none of
such net proceeds shall be applied to any other securities having a later scheduled
maturity date than the Debentures until the principal of the Debentures shall have been
paid in full. If the Company raises less than $5 million (or, if less than $5 million
principal amount of Debentures remains Outstanding, an amount less than the remaining
principal amount of such remaining Outstanding Debentures) of net proceeds from the sale of
Qualifying Replacement Securities during the relevant 180-day or 90-day period, the Company
will not be required to repay any Debentures on the Scheduled Maturity Date or the next
Quarterly Interest Payment Date, as applicable, but must use those net proceeds to repay
the Debentures on the next Quarterly Interest Payment Date to the extent the Company has
raised at least $5 million (or, if less than $5 million principal amount of Debentures
remains Outstanding, an amount equal to the remaining Outstanding Debentures) of net
proceeds. If the net proceeds allocable to repay the principal of the Debentures
shall not be divisible by the authorized denominations of the Debentures into a whole
number, the net proceeds so allocable shall be deemed to be equal to the next lower amount
divisible by such authorized denominations into a whole

25

 

number. The Company shall deliver
to the Trustee, no later than one Business Day prior to a Repayment Date with respect to
which the Company has received net cash proceeds of the issuance of Qualifying Replacement
Securities, an Officers’ Certificate setting forth the manner in which such net cash
proceeds are to be applied in accordance with this Section 2.02(a)(vi).

     (vii) The Company shall not amend the Replacement Capital Covenant to impose
additional restrictions on the type or amount of Qualifying Replacement Securities that the
Company may include for purposes of determining whether or to what extent repayment,
redemption or purchase of the Debentures is permitted, except with the consent of Holders
of at least a majority in aggregate Outstanding principal amount of the Debentures. Except
as aforesaid, the Company may amend or supplement the Replacement Capital Covenant in
accordance with its terms and without the consent of the Holders of the Debentures.

     (b) Final Maturity Date. The principal of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all
Outstanding Debentures shall be due and payable on June 15, 2068 or, if such date is not a Business
Day, the following Business Day (the “Final Maturity Date”), from any source of available
funds and regardless of the amount of Qualifying Replacement Securities the Company may have issued
and sold by that time.

Section 2.03 Form. The Debentures shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached
hereto and shall be issued in fully registered definitive form without interest coupons. Principal
of and interest on the Debentures issued in definitive form will be payable, the transfer of such
Debentures will be registrable and such Debentures will be exchangeable for Debentures bearing
identical terms and provisions and notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the
Debentures and the Indenture may be served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the
Company appoints the Trustee as its agent for the foregoing purposes, provided that payment of
interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Holders at such address as
shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the
bank account number of the Holders specified in writing by the Holders not less than 10 days before
the relevant Interest Payment Date and entered in the Security Register by the Securities
Registrar. The Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange at the
Securities Registrar Office. The Debentures are initially solely issuable as Global Securities.
The Depository Trust Company is hereby designated as Depositary. Registered Debentures shall be
physically transferred to all beneficial owners in definitive form in exchange for their beneficial
interests in a Global Security if the
Depositary with respect to such Global Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling or
unable to continue as Depositary for such Global Security or the Depositary ceases to be a clearing
agency registered under the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and a successor Depositary is not
appointed by the Company within 90 days of such notice.

26

 

     In addition, beneficial interests in the Global Securities may be exchanged for definitive
certificated Debentures upon request by or on behalf of the Depositary in accordance with customary
procedures following the request of a beneficial owner seeking to exercise or enforce its rights
under such Debentures in connection with an Event of Default. If the Company determines at any time
that the Debentures shall no longer be represented by a Global Security, the Company shall inform
the Depositary of such determination which will, in turn, notify participants of their right to
withdraw their beneficial interest from the Global Security. If such participants then elect to
withdraw their beneficial interests, the Company shall issue certificates in definitive form in
exchange for such beneficial interests in the Global Security. Any Global Security, or portion
thereof, that is exchangeable pursuant to this Section 2.03 shall be exchangeable for Debenture
certificates registered in the names directed by the Depositary.

Section 2.04 Rate of Interest; Interest Payment Date.

     (a) Rate of Interest. The Debentures shall bear interest from and including June 6, 2008 to
but excluding June 15, 2018 or earlier Redemption Date of the Debentures, at the rate of 8.125% per
annum, payable as set forth in clause (b) below computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised
of twelve 30-day months. Commencing on June 15, 2018, the Debentures shall bear interest at a
floating annual rate, reset quarterly on the first day of each Floating Rate Interest Period by the
Calculation Agent, equal to Three-Month LIBOR, determined for each Floating Rate Interest Period as
set forth herein, plus 4.6025% (the “Floating Rate”), payable as set forth in clause (b)
below. The amount of Floating Rate interest payable on the Debentures for any Floating Rate
Interest Period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days
elapsed in the 360-day year. Interest scheduled for payment but not paid upon any Interest Payment
Date, including interest not required to be paid due to deferral under the terms of this First
Supplemental Indenture, shall bear Additional Interest from the originally scheduled payment date
therefor at the rate borne by the Debentures; provided that (i) if a scheduled
Semi-Annual Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, interest payable on such Semi-Annual
Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no
interest will accrue as a result of any such postponement, and (ii) if a scheduled
Quarterly Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the Quarterly Interest Payment Date shall be
postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, and interest will continue to accrue
during such postponement. Interest will accrue from and including the last Interest Payment Date in
respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for to but excluding the
following Interest Payment Date with respect to which the interest has been paid or duly
provided for.

     (b) Interest Payment Dates. Subject to the other provisions hereof, interest on the
Debentures shall be payable (i) semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each
year, commencing on December 15, 2008, until and including June 15, 2018

27

 

(each such date, a
“Semi-Annual Interest Payment Date”) and (ii) thereafter, quarterly in arrears on
March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2018
(each such date, a “Quarterly Interest Payment Date” and, together with Semi-Annual
Interest Payment Dates, each, an “Interest Payment Date”).

Section 2.05 Interest Deferral.

     (a) Option to Defer Interest Payments.

     (i) So long as no Event of Default with respect to the Debentures has occurred and is
continuing, the Company shall have the right on one or more occasions, to defer the payment
of interest on the Debentures for one or more Interest Periods up to ten consecutive years,
provided that no Deferral Period shall extend beyond the Final Maturity Date, the earlier
accelerated maturity date of the Debentures or other repayment or redemption in full of the
Debentures. If the Company shall fail to pay interest on the Debentures on any Interest
Payment Date, the Company shall be deemed to elect to defer payment of such interest on
such Interest Payment Date, unless the Company shall pay such interest in full within five
Business Days after any such Interest Payment Date. If the Company shall have paid all
deferred interest (including Additional Interest) on the Debentures, the Company shall have
the right to elect to begin a new Deferral Period pursuant to this Section 2.05.

     (ii) During a Deferral Period, interest (including Additional Interest) will continue
to accrue on the Debentures at the then applicable interest rate, compounded semi-annually
or quarterly, as applicable, as of each Interest Payment Date to the extent permitted by
applicable law.

     (iii) The Company shall pay all deferred interest, including Additional Interest, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 307 of the Indenture applicable to Defaulted
Interest.

     (b) Payment of Deferred Interest. The Company will not pay any deferred interest (including
Additional Interest) on the Debentures except in accordance with Section 2.06 prior to the Final
Maturity Date, except at any time that the principal amount of the Debentures shall have been
accelerated and such acceleration has not been rescinded or in the case of a Business Combination
to the extent provided below in Section 2.05(c). On the Final Maturity Date or if the principal
amount of the Debentures
shall have been accelerated and such acceleration has not been rescinded, the Company shall
pay all accrued and unpaid interest, including deferred interest (including Additional Interest),
from any available funds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on any Interest Payment Date the Company
may pay the current interest accrued during the immediately preceding Interest Period from any
available funds.

28

 

     (c) Business Combination Exception. If the Company is involved in a Business Combination
where immediately after its consummation more than 50% of the voting stock of the Person that is
the surviving entity of such Business Combination, or the Person to whom all or substantially all
of the Company’s property or assets are conveyed, transferred or leased in such Business
Combination, is owned by the stockholders of the other party to such Business Combination, then
Section 2.05(b) and Section 2.06 shall not apply to any payment of interest for a Deferral Period
that is terminated on the next Interest Payment Date following the date of consummation of such
Business Combination.

     (d) Notice of Deferral. The Company shall provide written notice to the Trustee and the
Holders of the Debentures of its election to commence or continue any Deferral Period at least one
Business Day and not more than sixty Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.
Notice of the Company’s election of a Deferral Period shall be given to the Trustee and each Holder
of Debentures at such Holder’s address appearing in the Security Register by first-class mail,
postage prepaid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the failure of the Company to provide notice in
accordance with this Section 2.05(d) of its election to commence or continue any Deferral Period,
including any deemed election as provided in Section 2.05(a)(i), shall not affect the validity of
such deferral hereunder.

Section 2.06 Alternative Payment Mechanism.

     (a) Obligation to Issue APM Qualifying Securities. During the APM Period, the Company shall,
subject to the limitations set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) below, the occurrence and
continuation of a Market Disruption Event as provided in Section 2.06(b), and Section 2.05(b) and
Section 2.06(c), sell APM Qualifying Securities until the Company has raised an amount of Eligible
Proceeds at least equal to the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid deferred interest on the
Debentures, including Additional Interest, and apply such Eligible Proceeds as promptly as
practicable following receipt thereof to the payment of all accrued and unpaid deferred interest
(including Additional Interest) on the Debentures until all such deferred interest (including
Additional Interest) has been paid in full. Subject to the limitations set forth in this Section
2.06(a), during an APM Period, the Company may in its discretion select the types of APM Qualifying
Securities to sell to satisfy its obligations under this Section 2.06(a):

     (i) Prior to the fifth anniversary of the commencement of a Deferral Period the
Company shall not be obligated to issue Common Stock or Qualifying Warrants to the extent
that the number of shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of such
Qualifying Warrants plus the number of shares of Common Stock previously issued or issuable
upon the exercise of Qualifying Warrants previously issued during such Deferral Period
would exceed
an amount equal to 2% of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of

29

 

Common
Stock as of the date of the Company’s then most recent publicly available consolidated
financial statements immediately prior to the date of such issuance (the “Common Stock
Issuance Cap”). If the Company shall have issued Common Stock or Qualifying Warrants
during any Deferral Period such that the Common Stock Issuance Cap shall have been reached,
notwithstanding any subsequent increase in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock
in accordance with clause (iii) below or otherwise, the Common Stock Issuance Cap
applicable during such Deferral Period shall not be increased. On and after the fifth
anniversary of the commencement of any Deferral Period, the Common Stock Issuance Cap shall
cease to apply and the Company shall pay any deferred interest, regardless of the time at
which it was deferred, as provided in this Section 2.06(a) without regard to the Common
Stock Issuance Cap, but subject to the other limitations set forth herein. Upon the
termination of any Deferral Period, if the Company shall thereafter start a new Deferral
Period, the Common Stock Issuance Cap shall apply without regard to the shares of Common
Stock and Qualifying Warrants issued in any prior Deferral Period. Notwithstanding the
Common Stock Issuance Cap, the Company shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to
issue Common Stock or Qualifying Warrants in excess of the Common Stock Issuance Cap for
the purpose of paying deferred interest (including Additional Interest) on the Debentures
or for any other purpose;

     (ii) The Company shall not issue Qualifying Preferred Stock or Mandatorily Convertible
Preferred Stock to the extent that the net proceeds of any issuance of Qualifying Preferred
Stock or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock applied, together with the net proceeds of
all prior issuances of Qualifying Preferred Stock and any still-outstanding Mandatorily
Convertible Preferred Stock applied during the current and all prior Deferral Periods, to
pay deferred interest on the Debentures pursuant to this Section 2.06, would exceed 25% of
the aggregate principal amount of the Debentures (the “Preferred Stock Issuance
Cap”);

     (iii) Notwithstanding the Common Stock Issuance Cap and the Preferred Stock Issuance
Cap, so long as any Debentures shall remain Outstanding, the Company shall not sell Common
Stock, Qualifying Warrants, or Mandatorily Convertible Preferred Stock for the purpose of
paying deferred interest (including Additional Interest) on the Debentures in an amount
such that the Common Stock to be issued (or which would be issuable upon exercise or
conversion thereof) would exceed the Shares Available for Issuance (the “Share
Cap”). The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek stockholder
approval to increase the number of authorized shares of the Common Stock if at any date the
Shares Available for Issuance falls below the greater of:

30

 

     (A) 86 million shares (or 172 million shares if the Company has amended the
Definition of APM Qualifying Securities to eliminate Common Stock) (as adjusted for
any stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, split-up,
combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction); and

     (B) the number of shares that the Company would be required to issue to raise
sufficient Eligible Proceeds (assuming a price per share equal to the average
trading price of a share of Common Stock during the ten-Trading Day period
preceding the date of determination) equal to the lesser of (a) the sum of
(1) three times the amount of the then outstanding deferred interest
(including Additional Interest) on the Debentures plus (2) the amount of
interest (including Additional Interest) that would accumulate on the Debentures
during the next twelve months assuming no payments of interest thereon are made,
and (b) the amount of interest (including Additional Interest) that would
accumulate on the Debentures during the ten year period beginning on the
commencement of the then current Deferral Period. For purposes of determining the
amounts accruing subsequent to June 15, 2018, interest will be computed by
reference to Three-Month LIBOR for the then current Interest Period plus 4.6025%.

     If the Company issues additional Debentures, the number of shares referred to in (A) above
will be increased proportionately to the principal amount of such additional Debentures.

     (b) Market Disruption Event. Section 2.06(a) shall not apply, with respect to any Interest
Payment Date, if not less than 10 Business Days prior to such Interest Payment Date the Company
shall have provided to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate (which the Trustee will promptly
forward upon receipt to each Holder of Debentures) stating that a Market Disruption Event has
occurred and is continuing and identifying the type of Market Disruption Event that has occurred
and the date(s) on which that Market Disruption Event occurred or existed. The obligation of the
Company to sell APM Qualifying Securities to pay deferred interest (including Additional Interest)
on the Debentures shall resume at such time as no Market Disruption Event exists or is continuing.

     (c) Partial Payment of Deferred Interest.

     (i) If the Eligible Proceeds received by the Company from one or more sales of APM
Qualifying Securities are not sufficient to satisfy the full amount of accrued and unpaid
deferred interest, including Additional Interest, on the Debentures (together with the full
amount of deferred interest on Parity Securities in the circumstances described in clause
(ii) below) on any Interest

31

 

Payment Date, such Eligible Proceeds shall be allocated to pay accrued and unpaid
deferred interest to Holders of the Debentures (and Parity Securities, if applicable) on a
pro rata basis based on the total amount of accrued and unpaid deferred interest then due.
No less than 10 Business Days prior to any Interest Payment Date with respect to which
insufficient Eligible Proceeds have been received by the Company, the Company shall deliver
to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate stating that such insufficient proceeds have been
received and stating the amount of such proceeds allocable to pay accrued and unpaid
deferred interest on the Debentures in accordance with this clause (i).

     (ii) If on any date or for any period the Company pays interest on any class of Parity
Securities in an amount that is less than the full amount of accrued but unpaid interest
payable on such class of Parity Securities, including pursuant to an obligation to pay to
the holders of such Parity Securities the proceeds of a sale of APM Qualifying Securities,
the Company will make payments on all outstanding classes of Parity Securities on the same
date or for the same corresponding period as on the Debentures on a pro rata basis based on
the total amounts then due, except and to the extent the terms of any such Parity
Securities (each a “Particular Parity Security”) would prohibit the Company from
making such payments on such Particular Parity Security.

Section 2.07 Events of Default.

     Solely for purposes of the Debentures, Section 501 of the Indenture shall be deleted and
replaced by the following:

Section 5.01 Events of Default.

     “Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to the Debentures, means any one
of the following events (whatever the reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be
voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or
order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

     (1) default in the payment of interest, including Additional Interest, in full on any
Debenture for a period of 30 days after the conclusion of a 10-year period following the
commencement of any Deferral Period, or on the Final Maturity Date; or

     (2) default in the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, on any Debenture on
the Final Maturity Date or upon redemption; or

     (3) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises
adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as

32

 

properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition of or in respect of the Company in an involuntary case under any applicable
Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law, or appointing
a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the
Company or of any substantial part of its property or ordering the winding up or
liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in
effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

     (4) the institution by the Company of proceedings to be adjudicated a bankrupt or
insolvent, or the consent by it to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings
against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization
or relief under any applicable Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or
other similar law, or the consent by it to the filing of any such petition or to the
appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar
official) of the Company or of any substantial part of its property and such official is
not discharged within 60 days, or the making by it of a general assignment for the benefit
of creditors, or the admission by it in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally
as they become due.

     The Trustee shall have no right or obligation under the Indenture or otherwise to exercise any
remedies on behalf of the Holders of the Debentures in connection with any failure by the Company
to comply with any covenant or warranty of the Company contained in the Indenture (other than any
covenant referred to in Section 501(1) or (2)), unless the Trustee is directed to exercise such
remedies pursuant to and subject to the provisions of Section 512 of the Indenture. In connection
with any such exercise of remedies, the Trustee shall be entitled to the same immunities and
protections and remedial rights (other than acceleration) as if such failure to comply were an
Event of Default. The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge or notice of any such failure to
comply unless and until it shall have received the foregoing direction under Section 512 of the
Indenture.

Section 2.08 Securities Registrar; Paying Agent; Delegation of Trustee Duties.

     (a) The Company appoints The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Security Registrar and
Paying Agent with respect to the Debentures.

Section 2.09 Limitation on Claims in the Event of Bankruptcy, Insolvency or Receivership.
Each Holder, by such Holder’s acceptance of the Debentures, agrees that in the event of the
Company’s bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership prior to the redemption or repayment of such
Debentures, whether voluntary or not, such Holder of Debentures shall have no claim under the
Debentures for, and no right to receive, any deferred and unpaid interest (including Additional
Interest) pursuant to Section 2.05 that has not been paid pursuant to Section 2.05 and Section 2.06
to the extent the amount of

33

 

such deferred interest exceeds the amount of deferred interest (including Additional Interest) that
relates to the earliest two years of the portion of the Deferral Period for which interest has not
been paid.

Section 2.10 Subordination. The subordination provisions of Article Twelve of the
Indenture shall apply to the Debentures, provided that, for purposes of such Article
Twelve, Senior Indebtedness will not include (a) indebtedness incurred for the purchase of
goods, materials or property, or for services obtained in the ordinary course of business or for
other liabilities arising in the ordinary course of business (i.e., trade accounts payable),
(b) any indebtedness which by its terms expressly provides that it is not senior to the
Debentures, (c) any of the Company’s indebtedness owed to a Person who is a Subsidiary or
employee of the Company, or (d) the Income Capital Obligation Notes due 2067 of the Company
issuable pursuant to the Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated as of February 12, 2007, between the
Company and LaSalle Bank Nation Association, a national banking association incorporated and
existing under the laws of the United States of America, as Trustee, and, in each case, the
Debentures shall be pari passu with such indebtedness.

Section 2.11 Satisfaction and Discharge. The provisions of Section 401 and Article 13 of
the Indenture shall apply to the Debentures.

ARTICLE 3

COVENANTS

Section 3.01 Dividend and Other Payment Stoppages. So long as any Debentures remain
Outstanding, if the Company shall have given notice of its election to defer interest payments on
the Debentures but the related Deferral Period has not yet commenced or a Deferral Period is
continuing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to:

     (a) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a
liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of capital stock of the Company other than:

     (i) any purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of Common Stock in
connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or
for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants;

     (ii) purchases of shares of Common Stock pursuant to a contractually binding
requirement to buy Common Stock entered into prior to the beginning of such Deferral
Period, including under a contractually binding stock repurchase plan;

34

 

     (iii) as a result of any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of
the Company’s capital stock, or the capital stock of one of its Subsidiaries, for any class
or series of the Company’s capital stock, or of any class or series of the Company’s
indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock;

     (iv) any purchase of, or payment of cash in lieu of, fractional interests in shares of
the Company’s capital stock in accordance with the conversion or exchange provisions of
such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged;

     (v) the redemption or repurchase of rights in accordance with any stockholders’ rights

or redeem any of the Company’s debt securities or guaranties that rank equally with the Debentures
(“Parity Securities”) or junior to the Debentures other than (i) any payment of current or
deferred interest on Parity Securities made pro rata to the amounts due on such Parity Securities
(including the Debentures) provided that such payments are made in accordance with Section 2.06(c)
to the extent applicable, and any payments of deferred interest on Parity Securities that, if not
made, would cause the Company to breach the terms of the instrument governing such Parity
Securities; or (ii) any payment of principal on Parity Securities necessary to avoid a breach of
the instrument governing such Parity Securities.

Section 3.02 Additional Limitation on Deferral Over One Year.

     (a) Subject to the exceptions specified in Section 3.01 above, if any Deferral Period lasts
longer than one year, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to,
redeem or repurchase any of the Company’s APM Qualifying Securities, the proceeds from the sale of
which were used to pay deferred interest on the Debentures during the relevant Deferral Period, or
any securities of the Company that rank equally with or junior to such APM Qualifying Securities
until the first anniversary of the date on which all deferred interest on the Debentures shall have
been paid pursuant to Section 2.06 above.

     (b) If the Company is involved in a Business Combination where immediately after its
consummation more than 50% of the voting stock of the Person that is the surviving entity of such
Business Combination, or the Person to whom all or substantially all of the Company’s property or
assets are conveyed, transferred or leased in such Business Combination, is owned by the
stockholders of the other party to the Business Combination, then Section 3.02(a) shall not apply
to any redemption or repurchase of the Company’s APM Qualifying Securities if the Deferral Period
is terminated on or prior to

35

 

the next Interest Payment Date following the date of consummation of such Business
Combination.

Supplemental Indenture; or

     (b) in whole but not in part, within 180 days after the occurrence of a Special Event;

provided that no partial redemption pursuant to Section 4.01(a) shall be effected

ARTICLE 5

REPAYMENT OF DEBENTURES

Section 5.01 Repayments. The Company shall, not more than 15 nor less than 10 Business
Days prior to each Repayment Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee),
deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate notifying it of the principal amount of Debentures
to be repaid on such date pursuant to Section 2.02(a).

Section 5.02 Selection of the Debentures to be Repaid. If less than all the Debentures are
to be repaid on any Repayment Date (unless such repayment affects only a single Debenture), the
particular Debentures to be repaid shall be selected by the Trustee promptly following receipt of
the notice specified in Section 5.01, from the Outstanding Debentures not previously repaid or
called for redemption, by such method as the Trustee in its sole discretion shall deem fair and
appropriate and which may provide for the selection for repayment of a portion of the principal
amount of any Debenture, provided that the portion of the principal amount of any Debenture not
repaid shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized
denomination) for such Debenture. If less than all the Debentures and of a specified tenor are to
be repaid (unless such redemption affects only a single Debenture), the particular Debentures to be
repaid shall be selected by the Trustee promptly following receipt of the notice specified in
Section 5.01, from the Outstanding Debentures and specified tenor not previously called for
repayment in accordance with the preceding sentence.

     The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Debentures selected for
partial repayment and the principal amount thereof to be repaid. For all purposes hereof, unless
the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the repayment of Debentures shall
relate, in the case of any Debentures repaid or to be repaid only in part, to the portion of the
principal amount of such Debentures which has been or is to be repaid.

Section 5.03 Notice of Repayment. Notice of repayment shall be given by first-class mail,
postage prepaid, mailed not earlier than the 15th Business Day, and not later than the 5th Business
Day, prior to the Repayment Date, to each Holder of Debentures to be repaid, at the address of such
Holder as it appears in the Security Register.

     Each notice of repayment shall identify the Debentures to be repaid (including the Debentures’
CUSIP number, if a CUSIP number has been assigned to the Debentures) and shall state:

     (a) the Repayment Date;

37

 

     (b) if less than all Outstanding Debentures are to be repaid, the identification (and, in the
case of partial repayment, the respective principal amounts) of the particular Debentures to be
repaid;

     (c) that on the Repayment Date, the principal amount of the Debentures to be repaid will
become due and payable upon each such Debenture or portion thereof, and that interest thereon, if
any, shall cease to accrue on and after said date; and

     (d) the place or places where such Debentures are to be surrendered for payment of the
principal amount thereof.

     Notice of repayment shall be given by the Company or, if the Company timely notifies the
Trustee, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Company and
shall be irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively
presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Holders receive such notice. In any case, a
failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to any Holder of any Debentures
designated for repayment as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for
the repayment of any other Debentures.

Section 5.04 Deposit of Repayment Amount. Prior to the Repayment Date specified in the
notice of repayment given as provided in Section 5.03, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or
with one or more Paying Agents (or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company
will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003 of the Indenture) an amount of money,
in immediately available funds, sufficient to pay the principal amount of, and any accrued interest
on, all the Debentures which are to be repaid on that date.

Section 5.05 Repayment of Debentures. If any notice of repayment has been given as
provided in Section 5.03, the Debentures or portion of the Debentures with respect to which such
notice has been given shall become due and payable on the date and at the place or places stated in
such notice. On presentation and surrender of such Debentures at a Place of Payment in said notice
specified, the said Debentures or the specified portions thereof shall be paid by the Company at
their principal amount, together with accrued interest to but excluding the Repayment Date, and any
deferred interest (including Additional Interest) shall be paid in accordance with Section 2.06;
provided that, except in the case of a repayment in full of all Outstanding Debentures,
installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Repayment Date will be payable
to the Holders of such Debentures, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant
Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 1101 of the Indenture.
Upon presentation of any Debentures repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee
shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holders thereof, at the expense of the
Company, a new Debenture, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the
portion of the Debentures not repaid and so

38

 

presented and having the same Scheduled Maturity Date and other terms. If a Global Security is so
surrendered, such new Debentures will also be a new Global Security.

     If any Debentures required to be repaid shall not be so repaid upon surrender thereof, the
principal of such Debentures shall, until paid, bear interest from the applicable Repayment Date at
the rate prescribed therefor in the Debentures.

ARTICLE 6

ORIGINAL ISSUE OF DEBENTURES

Section 6.01 Calculation of Original Issue Discount. If during any calendar year any
original issue discount shall have accrued on the Debentures, the Company shall file with each
Paying Agent (including the Trustee if it is a Paying Agent) by January 31 of the following
calendar year (a) a written notice specifying the amount of original issue discount
(including daily rates and accrual periods) accrued on Outstanding Debentures as of the end of such
year and (b) such other specific information relating to such original issue discount as
may then be relevant under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time.

ARTICLE 7

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

Section 7.01 Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Holders. Notwithstanding
Section 901 and Section 902 of the Indenture, without the consent of any Holders of Debentures, the
Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time
may amend this First Supplemental Indenture for any of the following purposes:

     (1) to modify the definition of “Shares Available for Issuance” contained in
Section 1.01 and the related provisions of this First Supplemental Indenture, provided that
(a) the Company shall have determined in good faith that such modification is not
materially adverse to the Holders of the Debentures, (b) the rating agencies then
rating the Debentures shall have confirmed the then current ratings of the Debentures after
taking into account such modification, and (c) the number of Shares Available for
Issuance, after giving effect to such modification, will not fall below the threshold set
forth in the second sentence of Section 2.06(a)(iii); or

     (2) to modify the definition of “APM Qualifying Securities” contained in Section 1.01
to eliminate (a) one, but not both, of Common Stock or Qualifying Warrants, and
(b) any other security if, after the date hereof, an accounting standard or
interpretive guidance of an existing accounting standard issued by an

39

 

organization or regulator that has responsibility for establishing or interpreting
accounting standards used to prepare the Company’s financial statements filed with the
Commission, becomes effective, which, as a result, causes the Company to believe there is
more than an insubstantial risk that failure to so modify the definition of “APM Qualifying
Securities” would result in a reduction in the earnings per share of the Company, as
calculated for financial reporting purposes.

ARTICLE 8

Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified and confirmed, and this First Supplemental
Indenture shall be deemed part of the Indenture in the manner and to the extent herein and therein
provided.

beneficial interest in a Debenture each Holder of a Debenture and any Person acquiring a beneficial

8.125% FIXED-TO-FLOATING RATE

JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURE DUE 2068

     THE HARTFORD FINANCIAL SERVICES GROUP, INC., a corporation organized and existing under the
laws of Delaware (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.]2, or registered assigns, the principal sum of                      Dollars
($                    ), and all accrued and unpaid interest thereof on June 15, 2038 (the “Scheduled
Maturity Date”), subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 of the First
Supplemental Indenture. If that amount is not paid in full on the Scheduled Maturity Date or any
subsequent Interest Payment Date, the remaining amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereof, will be due and payable on the Final Maturity Date. The Final Maturity Date will be June
15, 2068.

     The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum from and including June 6,
2008, or from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest has been paid
or duly provided for (subject to the Company’s right to defer payment of interest as set forth
herein and in the Indenture), semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year,
commencing on December 15, 2008 and ending on June 15, 2018, at the rate of 8.125% per annum, on
the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30 day months, and thereafter to pay interest on
said outstanding principal sum quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15, and
December 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2018 at a floating annual rate equal to
Three-Month LIBOR plus 4.6025% , computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of
days elapsed in the 360 day year, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made
available for payment. Interest scheduled for payment but not paid upon any Interest Payment Date,
including interest not required to be paid due to the Company having exercised its right to defer
payment of interest set forth herein and in the Indenture, shall bear Additional Interest from the
originally scheduled payment date therefor at the rate then applicable to this Security, as
provided in the Indenture.

     Except as provided in Section 5.05 of the First Supplemental Indenture, the interest 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 Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on the

 

			
	2	 	Insert in Global Securities.

2

 

Regular Record Date for such interest. 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 Holders 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.

     The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, 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 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, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and
(c) appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder
hereof, by its acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination
provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now
outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

     As provided in the Indenture, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Company shall have the right on one or more occasions, to defer the payment of interest for one
or more Interest Periods up to ten consecutive years, provided that no Deferral Period shall extend
beyond the Final Maturity Date, the earlier accelerated maturity date hereof or other repayment or
redemption in full hereof. If the Company shall fail to pay interest hereon on any Interest Payment
Date, the Company shall be deemed to elect to defer payment of such interest on such Interest
Payment Date, unless the Company shall pay such interest in full within five Business Days after
any such Interest Payment Date. If the Company shall have paid all deferred interest (including
Additional Interest) hereon, the Company shall have the right to elect to begin a new Deferral
Period as provided in the Indenture.

     Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on this Security will be
made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of 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 mailed to the address of the Person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.

3

 

     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 by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under
the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

     Any additional Securities issued under the same CUSIP as this Security shall be fungible with
this Security for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

REVERSE OF SECURITY

     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 a Junior
Subordinated Indenture, dated as of June 6, 2008 (herein called the “Base Indenture”),
between the Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the
“Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented
and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 6, 2008, between the Company and
the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture”, and together with the Base Indenture, the
“Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is
hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities
thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms of the Securities
include those stated in the Indenture, and the Securities are subject to all such terms. This
Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate
principal amount to $500,000,000.

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

     This Security shall be redeemable at the option of the Company in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture. In particular, this Security is redeemable:

     (a) in whole at any time or in part from time to time after the date of original issuance of
this Security; or

     (b) in whole but not in part, within 180 days after the occurrence of a Special Event;

     provided that no such partial redemption shall be effected (x) unless at least
$25 million aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series shall remain Outstanding after
giving effect to such redemption and (y) if the principal amount of the Securities of this
series shall have been accelerated and such acceleration has not been rescinded or unless all
accrued and unpaid interest, including deferred interest (including Additional Interest), shall
have been paid in full on all Outstanding Securities of this series for all Interest Periods
terminating on or before the Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the
Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities of this series to be redeemed at its registered
address. The notice of redemption for such Securities shall state, among other things, the amount
of Securities of this series to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, if not then ascertainable, the
manner in which the Redemption Price shall be calculated and the

6

 

place or places that payment shall be made upon presentation and surrender of such Securities
to be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price together with
accrued interest, interest will cease to accrue on any Securities of this series that have been
called for redemption on the Redemption Date.

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

     Installments of accrued and unpaid interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of the Securities of this series, or one or more
Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record
Dates according to their terms.

     The Indenture contains provisions for satisfaction, discharge and defeasance of the entire
indebtedness on this Security, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth
therein.

     If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series 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 a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the
time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting
Holders of specified percentages in principal 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.

7

 

     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 $5,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 thereafter. 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 Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in
whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this
Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

     THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.

corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to
pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of five hundred million Dollars
($500,000,000), and all accrued and unpaid interest thereof on June 15, 2038 (the “Scheduled
Maturity Date”), subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 of the First
Supplemental Indenture. If that amount is not paid in full on the Scheduled Maturity Date or any
subsequent Interest Payment Date, the remaining amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereof, will be due and payable on the Final Maturity Date. The Final Maturity Date will be June
15, 2068.

     The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum from and including June 6,
2008, or from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date on which interest has been paid
or duly provided for (subject to the Company’s right to defer payment of interest as set forth
herein and in the Indenture), semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year,
commencing on December 15, 2008 and ending on June 15, 2018, at the rate of 8.125% per annum, on
the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30 day months, and thereafter to pay interest on

December 15 of each year, commencing on September 15, 2018 at a floating annual rate equal to
Three-Month LIBOR plus 4.6025% , computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of
days elapsed in the 360 day year, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made
available for payment. Interest scheduled for payment but not paid upon any Interest Payment Date,
including interest not required to be paid due to the Company having exercised its right to defer
payment of interest set forth herein and in the Indenture, shall bear Additional Interest from the
originally scheduled payment date therefor at the rate then applicable to this Security, as
provided in the Indenture.

     Except as provided in Section 5.05 of the First Supplemental Indenture, the interest 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 Security (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.

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
Holders 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.

     The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, 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 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, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such
actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and
(c) appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder
hereof, by its acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination
provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now
outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

     As provided in the Indenture, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing,
the Company shall have the right on one or more occasions, to defer the payment of interest for one
or more Interest Periods up to ten consecutive years, provided that no Deferral Period shall extend
beyond the Final Maturity Date, the earlier accelerated maturity date hereof or other repayment or
redemption in full hereof. If the Company shall fail to pay interest hereon on any Interest Payment
Date, the Company shall be deemed to elect to defer payment of such interest on such Interest
Payment Date, unless the Company shall pay such interest in full within five Business Days after
any such Interest Payment Date. If the Company shall have paid all deferred interest (including
Additional Interest) hereon, the Company shall have the right to elect to begin a new Deferral
Period as provided in the Indenture.

     Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and any interest on this Security will be
made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of 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 mailed 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 by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under
the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

     Any additional Securities issued under the same CUSIP as this Security shall be fungible with
this Security for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

REVERSE OF SECURITY

     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 a Junior
Subordinated Indenture, dated as of June 6, 2008 (herein called the “Base Indenture”),
between the Company and The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee (herein called the
“Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented
and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of June 6, 2008, between the Company and
the Trustee (the “First Supplemental Indenture”, and together with the Base Indenture, the
“Indenture”), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is
hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities
thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon
which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms of the Securities
include those stated in the Indenture, and the Securities are subject to all such terms. This
Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate
principal amount to $500,000,000.

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

     This Security shall be redeemable at the option of the Company in accordance with the terms of
the Indenture. In particular, this Security is redeemable:

     (a) in whole at any time or in part from time to time after the date of original issuance of
this Security; or

     (b) in whole but not in part, within 180 days after the occurrence of a Special Event;

     provided that no such partial redemption shall be effected (x) unless at least
$25 million aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series shall remain Outstanding after
giving effect to such redemption and (y) if the principal amount of the Securities of this
series shall have been accelerated and such acceleration has not been rescinded or unless all
accrued and unpaid interest, including deferred interest (including Additional Interest), shall
have been paid in full on all Outstanding Securities of this series for all Interest Periods
terminating on or before the Redemption Date.

     Notice of redemption shall be mailed at least 30 but not more than 60 days before the
Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities of this series to be redeemed at its registered
address. The notice of redemption for such Securities shall state, among other things, the amount
of Securities of this series to be redeemed, the Redemption Date, if not then ascertainable, the
manner in which the Redemption Price shall be calculated and the

6

 

place or places that payment shall be made upon presentation and surrender of such Securities
to be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price together with
accrued interest, interest will cease to accrue on any Securities of this series that have been
called for redemption on the Redemption Date.

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

     Installments of accrued and unpaid interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the
Redemption Date will be payable to the Holders of the Securities of this series, or one or more
Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record
Dates according to their terms.

     The Indenture contains provisions for satisfaction, discharge and defeasance of the entire
indebtedness on this Security, upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth
therein.

     If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series 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 a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the
time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting
Holders of specified percentages in principal 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.

7

 

     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 $5,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 thereafter. 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 Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in
whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this
Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by
notice to the contrary.

     THIS SECURITY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF
NEW YORK.
