          MERRILL LYNCH & CO., INC., a Delaware corporation ("Issuer" or the
"Company," which terms include 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 the Stated Maturity specified above (except to the extent redeemed or
repaid prior to the Stated Maturity), and to pay interest thereon, at a rate per
annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the Initial
Interest Reset Date specified above and thereafter at a rate per annum
determined in accordance with the provisions hereof and any Addendum relating
hereto depending upon the Interest Rate Basis or Bases, and such other terms
specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for
payment. Reference herein to "this Note", "hereof", "herein" and comparable
terms shall include an Addendum hereto if an Addendum is specified above.

          The Company will pay interest on each Interest Payment Date specified
above, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date specified above next
succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Stated Maturity
or any Redemption Date or Optional Repayment Date (as defined below) (the date
of each such Stated Maturity, Redemption Date and Optional Repayment Date and
the date on which principal or an installment of principal is due and payable by
declaration of acceleration pursuant to the Indenture being referred to
hereinafter as a "Maturity" with respect to principal payable on such date);
provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date is between a Regular Record
Date (as defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest
payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date succeeding the
Original Issue Date; and provided, further, that if an Interest Payment Date
(other than an Interest Payment Date at Maturity) would fall on a day that is
not a Business Day (as defined below), such Interest Payment Date shall be
postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that in the
case the Interest Rate Basis is LIBOR, as indicated above, if such next Business
Day falls in the next calendar month, the applicable Interest Payment Date shall
be the immediately preceding Business Day. Except as provided above, interest
payments will be made on the Interest Payment Dates shown above. Unless
otherwise specified above, the "Regular Record Date" shall be the date 15
calendar days (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the Original
Issue Date specified above, at the rates determined from time to time as
specified herein, until the principal hereof has been paid or made available for
payment. If the Maturity falls on a day which is not a Business Day as defined
below, the payment due on such Maturity will be paid on the next succeeding
Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Maturity and no
interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after
such Maturity. 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 Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest
Payment Date. Any such interest which is payable, but not punctually paid or
duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted
Interest"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on such
Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or
one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a
Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by
the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this Note not less
than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in
any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

          Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at
the Office or Agency of the Company maintained by the Company for such purpose
in the Borough of Manhattan, 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.

          Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
or on behalf of JPMorgan Chase Bank, the Trustee with respect to the Notes under
the Indenture, or its successor thereunder, by the manual signature of one of
its authorized officers, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under
the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

          This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities (hereinafter
called the "Securities") of the Company designated as its Medium-Term Notes,
Series B (the "Notes"). The Securities are issued and to be issued under an
indenture (the "Indenture") dated as of October 1, 1993, between the Company and
JPMorgan Chase Bank, formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank (successor by
merger to The Chase Manhattan Bank (National Association)) (herein called the
"Trustee", which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to
which Indenture and all indentures supplemental

                                       3

<PAGE>

thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights
thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and the
terms upon which the Notes are to be authenticated and delivered. The terms of
individual Notes may vary with respect to interest rates or interest rate
formulas, issue dates, maturity, redemption, repayment, currency of payment and
otherwise as provided in the Indenture.

          The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of, unless otherwise specified above, $1,000 and integral
multiples thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Notes as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. If
(x) the Depository is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depository
and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 60 days, (y)
the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect
that this Note shall be exchangeable or (z) an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing with respect to the Notes, this Note shall be exchangeable for
Notes in definitive form of like tenor and of an equal aggregate principal
amount, in authorized denominations. Such definitive Notes shall be registered
in such name or names as the Depository shall instruct the Trustee. If
definitive Notes are so delivered, the Company may make such changes to the form
of this Note as are necessary or appropriate to allow for the issuance of such
definitive Notes.

          This Note is not subject to any sinking fund.

          This Note may be subject to repayment at the option of the Holder
prior to its Stated Maturity on the Holder's Optional Repayment Date(s), if any,
indicated on the face hereof. If no Holder's Optional Repayment Dates are set
forth on the face hereof, this Note may not be so repaid at the option of the
Holder hereof prior to the Stated Maturity. On any Holder's Optional Repayment
Date, this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part in an amount equal to
$1,000 or integral multiples thereof (provided that any remaining principal
amount shall be an authorized denomination) at the option of the Holder hereof
at a repayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid,
together with interest thereon payable to the date of repayment. For this Note
to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the Holder hereof, this Note
must be received, with the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" below duly
completed, by the Trustee at its office at 55 Water Street, Room 234, Corporate
Trust Securities Window, New York, New York 10041 or such address which the
Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of the Medium-Term Notes (the
"Corporate Trust Office"), not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to a
Holder's Optional Repayment Date. This Note must be received by the Trustee by
5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the last day for giving such notice. Exercise
of such repayment option by the Holder hereof shall be irrevocable. In the event
of payment of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unpaid portion hereof
shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the surrender hereof.

          This Note may be redeemed at the option of the Company prior to its
Stated Maturity on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any,
specified on the face hereof (the "Redemption Date"). If no Initial Redemption
Date is set forth on the face hereof, this Note may not be redeemed at the
option of the Company prior to the Stated Maturity. On and after the Initial
Redemption Date, if any, this Note may be redeemed at any time in whole or from
time to time in part in increments of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof
(provided that any remaining principal amount shall be an authorized
denomination) at the option of the Company at the applicable Redemption Price
(as defined below) together with interest thereon payable to the Redemption
Date, on notice given not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the
Redemption Date. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new
Note for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder
hereof upon the surrender hereof.

          If this Note is redeemable at the option of the Company prior to its
Stated Maturity, the "Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial
Redemption Percentage, specified on the face hereof, of the principal amount of
this Note to be redeemed and shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial
Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified
on the face hereof, of the principal amount to be redeemed until the Redemption
Price is 100% of such principal amount.

          The interest rate borne by this Note shall be determined as follows:

               1.  If this Note is designated as a Regular Floating Rate Note
          above, then, except as described below, this Note shall bear interest
          at the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate
          Basis or Bases shown above (1) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if
          any, and/or (2) multiplied by

                                       4

<PAGE>

          the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, specified and applied in the
          manner described above. Commencing on the first Interest Reset Date,
          the rate at which interest on this Note is payable will be reset as of
          each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the
          interest rate in effect for the period from the Original Issue Date to
          the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate.

                  2. If this Note is designated as a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate
          Note above, then, except as described below, this Note shall bear
          interest at the rate determined by reference to the applicable
          Interest Rate Basis or Bases shown above (1) plus or minus the
          applicable Spread, if any, and/or (2) multiplied by the applicable
          Spread Multiplier, if any, specified and applied in the manner
          described above. Commencing on the first Interest Reset Date, the rate
          at which interest on this Note is payable will be reset as of each
          Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that (i) the
          interest rate in effect for the period from the date of issue to the
          first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate, and (ii)
          the interest rate in effect commencing on, and including, the date on
          which interest begins to accrue on a fixed rate basis to Maturity will
          be the Fixed Interest Rate, if the rate is specified above, or if no
          Fixed Interest Rate is specified, the interest rate in effect on the
          Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note on the day immediately preceding the
          date on which interest begins to accrue on a fixed rate basis.

                  3. If this Note is designated as an Inverse Floating Rate Note
          above, then, except as described below, this Note will bear interest
          equal to the Fixed Interest Rate indicated above minus the rate
          determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases
          shown above (1) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or
          (2) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, specified
          and applied in the manner described above; provided, however, that
          unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the interest rate
          hereon will not be less than zero percent. Commencing on the first
          Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is
          payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above;
          provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for the period
          from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall
          be the Initial Interest Rate.

                  4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is designated
          above as having an Addendum attached or as having Other Provisions
          apply, the Note shall bear interest in accordance with the terms
          described in such Addendum or specified under Other Provisions.

          Except as provided above, the interest rate in effect on each day
shall be (a) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined
as of the Interest Determination Date (as defined below) immediately preceding
such Interest Reset Date or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the
interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date immediately
preceding the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date. Each Interest Rate
Basis shall be the rate determined in accordance with the applicable provision
below. If any Interest Reset Date (which term includes the term first Interest
Reset Date unless the context otherwise requires) would otherwise be a day that
is not a Business Day, that Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next
succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that if an Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is LIBOR and the next Business Day falls in the
next succeeding calendar month, that Interest Reset Date shall be the
immediately preceding Business Day. In addition, if an Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is the Treasury Rate and the Interest Determination
Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then that Interest Reset
Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day.

          Unless otherwise specified above, interest payable on this Note on any
Interest Payment Date shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including
the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has
been paid (or from and including the Original Issue Date specified above, if no
interest has been paid), to but excluding the related Interest Payment Date or
Maturity. Unless otherwise specified above, accrued interest hereon shall be an
amount calculated by multiplying the face amount hereof by an accrued interest
factor. The accrued interest factor shall be computed by adding the interest
factor calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being
calculated. Unless otherwise specified above, the interest factor for each such
day shall be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by
360, if the Day Count Convention specified above is "Actual/360" for the period
specified thereunder or by the actual number of days in the year if the Day
Count Convention specified above is "Actual/Actual" for the period specified
thereunder. In the case of notes for which the Interest Rate Basis is the CD
Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, the
Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR or the Prime Rate, the interest factor for each day
will be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to each day by 360. In
the case of notes for which the Interest Rate Basis is the CMT Rate or

                                       5

<PAGE>

the Treasury Rate, the interest factor for each day will be computed by dividing
the interest rate applicable to each day by the actual number of days in the
year. The interest factor for notes for which the interest rate is calculated
with reference to two or more Interest Rate Bases will be calculated in each
period in the same manner as if only one of the applicable Interest Rate Bases
applied.

          Unless otherwise specified above, the "Interest Determination Date"
with respect to the CD Rate, the CMT Rate and the Commercial Paper Rate shall be
the second Business Day preceding each Interest Reset Date; the "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to the Federal Funds Rate and the Prime Rate
shall be the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest Reset Date; the
"Interest Determination Date" with respect to LIBOR shall be the second London
Banking Day (as defined below) preceding each Interest Reset Date; the "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate
shall be the last working day of the month immediately preceding each Interest
Reset Date on which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the "FHLB of
San Francisco") publishes the Index (as defined below); and the "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to the Treasury Rate shall be the day in the
week in which the related Interest Reset Date falls on which day Treasury Bills
(as defined below) are normally auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at
auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which
case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that the
auction may be held on the preceding Friday; provided, however, that if an
auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding the related Interest Reset
Date, the related Interest Determination Date shall be such preceding Friday;
and provided, further, that if an auction shall fall on any Interest Reset Date,
then the related Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day
following such auction. If the interest rate of this Note is determined with
reference to two or more Interest Rate Bases, the Interest Determination Date
pertaining to this Note will be the latest Business Day which is at least two
Business Days prior to such Interest Reset Date on which each Interest Rate
Basis shall be determinable. Each Interest Rate Basis shall be determined and
compared on such date, and the applicable interest rate shall take effect on the
related Interest Reset Date.

          Unless otherwise specified above, the "Calculation Date", if
applicable, pertaining to any Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of
(i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if the
tenth calendar day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, or
(ii) the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or date of
Maturity, as the case may be. All calculations on this Note shall be made by the
Calculation Agent specified above or such successor thereto as is duly appointed
by the Company.

          All percentages resulting from any calculation on this Note will be
rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five
one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards. For example, 9.876545% or
..09876545 would be rounded to 9.87655% or .0987655. All dollar amounts used in
or resulting from any calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent with
one-half cent being rounded upward.

          As used herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or
Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The
City of New York; provided, however, that, with respect to non-United State
dollar denominated Notes, such day is also not a day on which commercial banks
are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in the
Principal Financial Center (as hereinafter defined) of the country issuing the
Specified Currency or, if the Specified Currency is EURO, the day is also a day
on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express
Transfer (TARGET) System is open; provided, further, that, with respect to Notes
as to which LIBOR is an applicable Interest Rate Basis, such day is also a
London Banking Day (as hereinafter defined).

          As used herein, "London Banking Day" means a day on which commercial
banks are open for business, including dealings in the LIBOR Currency, in
London.

          As used herein, "Principal Financial Center" means:

                  Currency, except that with respect to United States dollars,

                  guilders, Italian lire, South African rand and Swiss francs,
                  the "Principal Financial Center" will be The City of New York,
                  Sydney and Melbourne, Toronto, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Milan,
                  Johannesburg and Zurich, respectively, or

                  H.15(519), as defined below, under the caption "CDs (secondary
                  market)", or

          (2)     if the rate referred to in clause (1) above is not so
                  published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related
                  Calculation Date, the rate on the particular CD Rate Interest
                  Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar

                           Medium-Term Notes, Series B

             Addendum for Modified Federal Funds Rate Indexed Notes

         Determination of Modified Federal Funds Rate: If an Interest Rate Basis
for the attached Note is the Modified Federal Funds Rate, the Modified Federal
Funds Rate shall be determined on the particular Interest Determination Date
relating to a Modified Federal Funds Rate Note or any Floating Rate Note for
which the interest rate is determined with reference to the Modified Federal
Funds Rate (a "Modified Federal Funds Rate Interest Determination Date"), as the
rate on such date for federal funds as set forth on Telerate Page 5 as of 12:00
P.M., New York City time, under the heading "Dow Jones Treasury & Money
Markets-Federal Funds-Open". If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 5 on
the particular Modified Federal Funds Rate Interest Determination Date, Modified
Federal Funds Rate shall mean the rate on such Modified Federal Funds Rate
Interest Determination Date as set forth on Telerate Page 4833 as of 12:00 P.M.,
New York City time, under the heading "MW. Marshall Inc.-New York-Fed Funds
O/N-OPN". If such rate does not appear on any of Telerate Pages 5 or 4833 as
specified above on the particular Modified Federal Funds Rate Interest
Determination Date, the Modified Federal Funds Rate for the particular Interest
Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be the
arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight United States
dollar federal funds arranged by three leading brokers of federal funds
transactions in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, and
available prior to 9:00 A.M. New York City Time, on such Modified Federal Funds
Rate Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if the brokers so
selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence,
the Modified Federal Funds Rate with respect to such Modified Federal Funds Rate
Interest Determination Date will be the Modified Federal Funds Rate in effect
for such Modified Federal Funds Rate on such Modified Federal Funds Rate
Interest Determination Date.

         "Telerate Page" means, when used in connection with any designated
page, the display page so designated on Bridge Telerate, Inc. or any successor
service.

         The "Interest Determination Date" with respect to the Modified Federal
Funds Rate shall be each Interest Reset Date. Notwithstanding any provisions to
the contrary in the attached Note, the interest rate effective on each day shall
be (a) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined on
the Interest Determination Date occurring on such Interest Reset Date or (b) if
such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined as of the
Interest Determination Date occurring on the immediately preceding Interest
Reset Date.

     MERRILL LYNCH & CO., INC., a Delaware corporation ("Issuer" or the
"Company," which terms include 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 the Stated Maturity specified above (except to the extent redeemed or
repaid prior to the Stated Maturity), and to pay interest thereon, at a rate per
annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the Initial
Interest Reset Date specified above and thereafter at a rate per annum
determined in accordance with the provisions hereof and any Addendum relating
hereto depending upon the Interest Rate Basis or Bases, and such other terms
specified above, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for
payment. Reference herein to "this Note", "hereof", "herein" and comparable
terms shall include an Addendum hereto if an Addendum is specified above.

     The Company will pay interest on each Interest Payment Date specified
above, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date specified above next
succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Stated Maturity
or any Redemption Date or Optional Repayment Date (as defined below) (the date
of each such Stated Maturity, Redemption Date and Optional Repayment Date and
the date on which principal or an installment of principal is due and payable by
declaration of acceleration pursuant to the Indenture being referred to
hereinafter as a "Maturity" with respect to principal payable on such date);
provided, however, that if the Original Issue Date is between a Regular Record
Date (as defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest
payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date succeeding the
Original Issue Date; and provided, further, that if an Interest Payment Date
(other than an Interest Payment Date at Maturity) would fall on a day that is
not a Business Day (as defined below), such Interest Payment Date shall be
postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that in the
case the Interest Rate Basis is LIBOR, as indicated above, if such next Business
Day falls in the next calendar month, the applicable Interest Payment Date shall
be the immediately preceding Business Day. Except as provided above, interest
payments will be made on the Interest Payment Dates shown above. Unless
otherwise specified above, the "Regular Record Date" shall be the date 15
calendar days (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the Original
Issue Date specified above, at the rates determined from time to time as
specified herein, until the principal hereof has been paid or made available for
payment. If the Maturity falls on a day which is not a Business Day as defined
below, the payment due on such Maturity will be paid on the next succeeding
Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Maturity and no
interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after
such Maturity. 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 Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest
Payment Date. Any such interest which is payable, but not punctually paid or
duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date (herein called "Defaulted
Interest"), shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on such
Regular Record Date, and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or
one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a
Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by
the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this Note not less
than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in
any other lawful manner, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

     Payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made at the
Office or Agency of the Company maintained by the Company for such purpose in
the Borough of Manhattan, 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.

     Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on
behalf of JPMorgan Chase Bank, the Trustee with respect to the Notes under
the Indenture, or its successor thereunder, by the manual signature of one of
its authorized officers, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under
the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

     This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities (hereinafter
called the "Securities") of the Company designated as its Medium-Term Notes,
Series B (the "Notes"). The Securities are issued and to be issued under an
indenture (the "Indenture") dated as of October 1, 1993, between the Company and
JPMorgan Chase Bank, formerly known as The Chase Manhattan Bank (successor by
merger to The Chase Manhattan Bank (National Association)) (herein called the
"Trustee", which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture), to
which Indenture and all indentures supplemental

                                       3

<PAGE>

thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights
thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and the
terms upon which the Notes are to be authenticated and delivered. The terms of
individual Notes may vary with respect to interest rates or interest rate
formulas, issue dates, maturity, redemption, repayment, currency of payment and
otherwise as provided in the Indenture.

     The Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of, unless otherwise specified above, $1,000 and integral
multiples thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain
limitations therein set forth, the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Notes as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. If
(x) the Depository is at any time unwilling or unable to continue as depository
and a successor depository is not appointed by the Company within 60 days, (y)
the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order to the effect
that this Note shall be exchangeable or (z) an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing with respect to the Notes, this Note shall be exchangeable for
Notes in definitive form of like tenor and of an equal aggregate principal
amount, in authorized denominations. Such definitive Notes shall be registered
in such name or names as the Depository shall instruct the Trustee. If
definitive Notes are so delivered, the Company may make such changes to the form
of this Note as are necessary or appropriate to allow for the issuance of such
definitive Notes.

     This Note is not subject to any sinking fund.

     This Note may be subject to repayment at the option of the Holder prior to
its Stated Maturity on the Holder's Optional Repayment Date(s), if any,
indicated on the face hereof. If no Holder's Optional Repayment Dates are set
forth on the face hereof, this Note may not be so repaid at the option of the
Holder hereof prior to the Stated Maturity. On any Holder's Optional Repayment
Date, this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part in an amount equal to
$1,000 or integral multiples thereof (provided that any remaining principal
amount shall be an authorized denomination) at the option of the Holder hereof
at a repayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid,
together with interest thereon payable to the date of repayment. For this Note
to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the Holder hereof, this Note
must be received, with the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" below duly
completed, by the Trustee at its office at 55 Water Street, Room 234, Corporate
Trust Securities Window, New York, New York 10041 or such address which the
Company shall from time to time notify the Holders of the Medium-Term Notes (the
"Corporate Trust Office"), not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to a
Holder's Optional Repayment Date. This Note must be received by the Trustee by
5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the last day for giving such notice. Exercise
of such repayment option by the Holder hereof shall be irrevocable. In the event
of payment of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unpaid portion hereof
shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the surrender hereof.

     This Note may be redeemed at the option of the Company prior to its Stated
Maturity on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified
on the face hereof (the "Redemption Date"). If no Initial Redemption Date is set
forth on the face hereof, this Note may not be redeemed at the option of the
Company prior to the Stated Maturity. On and after the Initial Redemption Date,
if any, this Note may be redeemed at any time in whole or from time to time in
part in increments of $1,000 or integral multiples thereof (provided that any
remaining principal amount shall be an authorized denomination) at the option of
the Company at the applicable Redemption Price (as defined below) together with
interest thereon payable to the Redemption Date, on notice given not more than
60 nor less than 30 days prior to the Redemption Date. In the event of
redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unredeemed portion
hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the surrender
hereof.

     If this Note is redeemable at the option of the Company prior to its Stated
Maturity, the "Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial Redemption
Percentage, specified on the face hereof, of the principal amount of this Note
to be redeemed and shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption
Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified on the
face hereof, of the principal amount to be redeemed until the Redemption Price
is 100% of such principal amount.

     The interest rate borne by this Note shall be determined as follows:

          1. If this Note is designated as a Regular Floating Rate Note above,
     then, except as described below, this Note shall bear interest at the rate
     determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases
     shown above (1) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (2)
     multiplied by

                                       4

<PAGE>

     the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, specified and applied in the
     manner described above. Commencing on the first Interest Reset Date, the
     rate at which interest on this Note is payable will be reset as of each
     Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however, that the interest
     rate in effect for the period from the Original Issue Date to the first
     Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate.

          2. If this Note is designated as a Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note
     above, then, except as described below, this Note shall bear interest at
     the rate determined by reference to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or
     Bases shown above (1) plus or minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or
     (2) multiplied by the applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, specified and
     applied in the manner described above. Commencing on the first Interest
     Reset Date, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable will be
     reset as of each Interest Reset Date specified above; provided, however,
     that (i) the interest rate in effect for the period from the date of issue
     to the first Interest Reset Date will be the Initial Interest Rate, and
     (ii) the interest rate in effect commencing on, and including, the date on
     which interest begins to accrue on a fixed rate basis to Maturity will be
     the Fixed Interest Rate, if the rate is specified above, or if no Fixed
     Interest Rate is specified, the interest rate in effect on the Floating
     Rate/Fixed Rate Note on the day immediately preceding the date on which
     interest begins to accrue on a fixed rate basis.

          3. If this Note is designated as an Inverse Floating Rate Note above,
     then, except as described below, this Note will bear interest equal to the
     Fixed Interest Rate indicated above minus the rate determined by reference
     to the applicable Interest Rate Basis or Bases shown above (1) plus or
     minus the applicable Spread, if any, and/or (2) multiplied by the
     applicable Spread Multiplier, if any, specified and applied in the manner
     described above; provided, however, that unless otherwise specified on the
     face hereof, the interest rate hereon will not be less than zero percent.
     Commencing on the first Interest Reset Date, the rate at which interest on
     this Note is payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date
     specified above; provided, however, that the interest rate in effect for
     the period from the Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date
     shall be the Initial Interest Rate.

          4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Note is designated above as
     having an Addendum attached or as having Other Provisions apply, the Note
     shall bear interest in accordance with the terms described in such Addendum
     or specified under Other Provisions.

     Except as provided above, the interest rate in effect on each day shall be
(a) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined as of
the Interest Determination Date (as defined below) immediately preceding such
Interest Reset Date or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the
interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date immediately
preceding the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date. Each Interest Rate
Basis shall be the rate determined in accordance with the applicable provision
below. If any Interest Reset Date (which term includes the term first Interest
Reset Date unless the context otherwise requires) would otherwise be a day that
is not a Business Day, that Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next
succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that if an Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is LIBOR and the next Business Day falls in the
next succeeding calendar month, that Interest Reset Date shall be the
immediately preceding Business Day. In addition, if an Interest Rate Basis
specified on the face hereof is the Treasury Rate and the Interest Determination
Date would otherwise fall on an Interest Reset Date, then that Interest Reset
Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day.

     Unless otherwise specified above, interest payable on this Note on any
Interest Payment Date shall be the amount of interest accrued from and including
the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has
been paid (or from and including the Original Issue Date specified above, if no
interest has been paid), to but excluding the related Interest Payment Date or
Maturity. Unless otherwise specified above, accrued interest hereon shall be an
amount calculated by multiplying the face amount hereof by an accrued interest
factor. The accrued interest factor shall be computed by adding the interest
factor calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being
calculated. Unless otherwise specified above, the interest factor for each such
day shall be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day by
360, if the Day Count Convention specified above is "Actual/360" for the period
specified thereunder or by the actual number of days in the year if the Day
Count Convention specified above is "Actual/Actual" for the period specified
thereunder. In the case of notes for which the Interest Rate Basis is the CD
Rate, the Commercial Paper Rate, the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate, the
Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR or the Prime Rate, the interest factor for each day
will be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to each day by 360. In
the case of notes for which the Interest Rate Basis is the CMT Rate or

                                       5

<PAGE>

the Treasury Rate, the interest factor for each day will be computed by dividing
the interest rate applicable to each day by the actual number of days in the
year. The interest factor for notes for which the interest rate is calculated
with reference to two or more Interest Rate Bases will be calculated in each
period in the same manner as if only one of the applicable Interest Rate Bases
applied.

     Unless otherwise specified above, the "Interest Determination Date" with
respect to the CD Rate, the CMT Rate and the Commercial Paper Rate shall be the
second Business Day preceding each Interest Reset Date; the "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to the Federal Funds Rate and the Prime Rate
shall be the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest Reset Date; the
"Interest Determination Date" with respect to LIBOR shall be the second London
Banking Day (as defined below) preceding each Interest Reset Date; the "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to the Eleventh District Cost of Funds Rate
shall be the last working day of the month immediately preceding each Interest
Reset Date on which the Federal Home Loan Bank of San Francisco (the "FHLB of
San Francisco") publishes the Index (as defined below); and the "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to the Treasury Rate shall be the day in the
week in which the related Interest Reset Date falls on which day Treasury Bills
(as defined below) are normally auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at
auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which
case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that the
auction may be held on the preceding Friday; provided, however, that if an
auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding the related Interest Reset
Date, the related Interest Determination Date shall be such preceding Friday;
and provided, further, that if an auction shall fall on any Interest Reset Date,
then the related Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day
following such auction. If the interest rate of this Note is determined with
reference to two or more Interest Rate Bases, the Interest Determination Date
pertaining to this Note will be the latest Business Day which is at least two
Business Days prior to such Interest Reset Date on which each Interest Rate
Basis shall be determinable. Each Interest Rate Basis shall be determined and
compared on such date, and the applicable interest rate shall take effect on the
related Interest Reset Date.

     Unless otherwise specified above, the "Calculation Date", if applicable,
pertaining to any Interest Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the
tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date or, if the tenth
calendar day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, or (ii)
the Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or date of
Maturity, as the case may be. All calculations on this Note shall be made by the
Calculation Agent specified above or such successor thereto as is duly appointed
by the Company.

     All percentages resulting from any calculation on this Note will be rounded
to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five
one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards. For example, 9.876545% or
..09876545 would be rounded to 9.87655% or .0987655. All dollar amounts used in
or resulting from any calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent with
one-half cent being rounded upward.

     As used herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or
Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banks are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The
City of New York; provided, however, that, with respect to non-United State

                           Medium-Term Notes, Series B

              Addendum for Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate Notes

     This Note, except as described below, shall bear interest as if this Note
were designated a Regular Floating Rate Note.

     Determination of Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate. If an Interest Rate
Basis for this Note is Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate, as indicated above,
the Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate shall be determined on the particular
Interest Determination Date (a "Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate Interest
Determination Date"), and shall be the average rate for the week period ending
on the Wednesday in the week immediately preceding the week containing such
Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate Interest Determination Date as published by
the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in "Statistical Release
H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates" or any successor publication ("H.15(519)")
under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)" under the column entitled "Week
Ending".

     If such rate is not published by 9:00 A.M. on the Calculation Date relating
to a Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate Interest Determination Date, the per
annum rate of interest payable with respect to this Note shall be reset as of
the particular Interest Reset Date at a rate equal to the average (mean) of the
Federal Funds Rate (defined in this paragraph and the immediately succeeding
paragraph) in effect with respect to each calendar day from and including the
second preceding Thursday to and including the next preceding Wednesday (the
"Calculation Period"), plus the Spread specified on the face of this Note. For
purposes of the preceding sentence, the "Calculation Date" shall be the earlier
of (i) the tenth calendar day after such Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate
Interest Determination Date or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next
succeeding Business Day, or (ii) the Business Day preceding the particular
Interest Payment Date or date of Maturity, as the case may be. Such average rate
shall be based upon the rate of interest applicable to each calendar day in the
Calculation Period, which shall equal, for any Business Day within such
Calculation Period, the Federal Funds Rate in effect on such Business Day and,
for any non-Business Day within such Calculation Period, the Federal Funds Rate
in effect on the next preceding Business Day. As used with respect to this
paragraph, "Federal Funds Rate" means, with respect to any Business Day within a
Calculation Period, the rate on such date for Federal Funds as published by the
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in H.15(519) under the heading
"Federal Funds (Effective)".

     If the rate for a Business Day is not published by 9:00 A.M. on the
Calculation Date pertaining to such Business Day as described in the preceding
paragraph, the Federal Funds Rate for such Business Day shall be the rate on
such date for Federal Funds as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York
in its daily statistical release, "Composite 3:30 P.M. Quotations for U.S.
Government Securities" ("Composite Quotation") under the heading "Federal
Funds/Effective Rate". If such rate is not yet published by 9:00 A.M. on the
applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate for such Business Day shall
be the rate on such date made publicly available by the Federal Reserve Bank of
New York which is equivalent to the rate which appears in H.15(519) under the
heading "Federal Funds (Effective)"; provided, however, that if such rate is not
made publicly available by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York by 9:00 A.M. on
the applicable Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate shall be the last
Federal Funds Rate in effect prior to such Business Day.

     The "Calculation Date" with respect to any Business Day within a
Calculation Period described in the preceding paragraph shall be the earlier of
(i) the tenth calendar day after such Business Day or (ii) the Business Day
prior to the Interest Payment Date on which such accrued interest shall be
payable.

     Unless otherwise specified on the face of this Note, if an Interest Rate
Basis for this Note is Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate, the per annum rate of
interest payable shall be reset on the Wednesday of each week (each an "Interest
Reset Date"). The Interest Determination Date with respect to the Weekly Average
Federal Funds Rate shall be the Business Day immediately preceding each Interest
Reset Date.
