[REVERSE SIDE OF BOND OF THIS SERIES]
This Bond is one of the duly authorized Bonds of the Company (herein called
the "Bonds"), all issued and to be issued under and equally secured by a
Mortgage and Deed of Trust dated July 1, 1940, executed by the Company to
Guaranty Trust Company of New York as Trustee, under which The Chase Manhattan
Bank (National Association) is successor trustee (herein called the "Trustee")
and all indentures supplemental thereto (said Mortgage as so supplemented herein
called the "Indenture"), to which reference is hereby made for a description of
the properties mortgaged and pledged, the nature and extent of the security, the
rights of the registered owner or owners of the Bonds and of the Trustee in
respect thereof, and the terms and conditions upon which the Bonds are, and are
to be, secured. The Bonds may be issued in series, for various principal sums,
may mature at different times, may bear interest at different rates and may
otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided. This Bond is one of a series
designated as the First Mortgage Bonds, 9 1/2% Series due 2005-B (herein called
the "Bonds of this Series"), limited, except as otherwise provided in the
Indenture, to $300,000,000 in aggregate principal amount, issued under and
secured by the Indenture and described in the Seventieth Supplemental Indenture
dated May 2, 1995, between the Company and the Trustee (herein called the
"Supplemental Indenture").
In the event that this Bond is deemed to be paid in full, this Bond shall
be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. In the event that this Bond is
deemed to be paid in part, this Bond may, at the option of the registered owner,
be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, in which event the Trustee will
cancel this Bond and the Company will execute and the Trustee will authenticate
and deliver to the registered owner Bonds in authorized denominations in
aggregate principal amount equal to the unpaid balance of the principal amount
of this Bond.
The Bonds of this Series are subject to redemption by the Company prior to
maturity in whole at any time or in part from time to time, but in no instance
before May 15, 2002, at a redemption price of 100% of the principal amount to be
redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.
Any redemption of the Bonds of this Series shall be made after written
notice has been given by the Trustee by mailing to each registered owner of such
Bonds to be redeemed a notice of such redemption, first class postage prepaid,
at its last address as it shall appear upon the books of the Company for the
registration and transfer of such Bonds. Any notice of redemption shall be
13
10
mailed at least 30 days, but no more than 60 days, prior to the redemption date.
In the event of partial redemption of Bonds of this Series, the Trustee shall
select the Bonds of this Series to be redeemed, subject to the provisions of the
Indenture, in such manner as the Trustee shall deem appropriate and fair.
In the Forty-Third Supplemental Indenture dated April 15, 1985 between the
Company and the Trustee, the Company has modified, in certain respects, the
redemption provisions in the Indenture effective only with respect to the Bonds
of all series established or created in said Forty-Third Supplemental Indenture
and all supplemental indentures dated after May 28, 1985.
To the extent permitted by and as provided in the Indenture, modifications
or alterations of the Indenture, or of any indenture supplemental thereto, and
of the rights and obligations of the Company and of the holders of the Bonds and
coupons may be made with the consent of the Company by an affirmative vote of
not less than 80% in principal amount of the Bonds entitled to vote then
outstanding, at a meeting of Bondholders called and held as provided in the
Indenture, and, in case one or more but less than all of the series of Bonds
then outstanding under the Indenture are so affected, by an affirmative vote of
not less than 80% in principal amount of the Bonds of any series entitled to
vote then outstanding and affected by such modification or alteration; provided,
however, that no such modification or alteration shall be made which will affect
the terms of payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on
this Bond. In the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture dated November 23, 1976
between the Company and the Trustee, the Company has modified the Indenture
effective from and after the time when none of the Bonds of any series
established prior to the execution of the Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture
shall remain outstanding so as to change "80%" in the foregoing sentence to
"60%" and to make certain other modifications of the Indenture and has reserved
the right to make certain other modifications of the Indenture without any vote,
consent or other action by the holders of Bonds of any series established in the
Nineteenth Supplemental Indenture or in any subsequent supplemental indenture.
If an event of default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur, the
principal of all the Bonds at any such time outstanding under the Indenture may
be declared or may become due and payable, upon the conditions and in the manner
and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that such
declaration may in certain events be waived by the holders of a majority in
principal amount of the Bonds outstanding.
14
11
The term "Record Date" shall mean, with respect to any interest payment
date of any Bond of this Series, the close of business on the last day (whether
or not a business day at the place of payment) of the calendar month next
preceding such interest payment date.
Subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, this Bond is
transferable by the registered owner hereof, in person or by duly authorized
attorney, on the books of the Company to be kept for that purpose at the agency
of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, upon surrender
and cancellation of this Bond, and upon presentation of a duly executed written
instrument of transfer, and thereupon a new fully registered Bond or Bonds of
the same series, for the same aggregate principal amount and in authorized
denominations will be issued to the transferee or transferees in exchange
therefor; and this Bond, with or without others of the same series, may in like
manner be exchanged for one or more new fully registered Bonds of the same
series of other authorized denominations but of the same aggregate principal
amount; all without charge except for any tax or taxes or other governmental
charges incidental to such transfer or exchange and all subject to the terms and
conditions set forth in the Indenture. Except as otherwise provided herein with
respect to the payment of interest, the Company, the agencies of the Company and
the Trustee may deem and treat the person in whose name this Bond is registered
as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of receiving any payment and for
all other purposes.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of (or premium,
if any) or the interest on this Bond, or for any claim based hereon or on the
Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, or
against any stockholder, director or officer, past, present or future, of the
Company, or of any predecessor or successor corporation, as such, either
directly or through the Company or any such predecessor or successor
corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or
by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability, whether at common law, in equity, by any constitution or statute or
otherwise, of incorporators, stockholders, directors or officers being released
by every owner hereof by the acceptance of this Bond and as part of the
consideration for the issue hereof, and being likewise released by the terms of
the Indenture.
