ARTICLE II
GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE NOTES
Section 2.01 Designation and Principal Amount. There is hereby authorized a series
of Securities designated as 11.50% Subordinated Notes due 2042 limited in aggregate principal
amount to $450,000,000 (up to $460,000,000 if the Underwriters exercise their over-allotment option
in full); provided, however, that the Company, without notice to or consent of the
Holders, may issue additional Securities of this series and thereby increase such principal amount
in the future, on the same terms and conditions (except for issue date and, if applicable, the date
from which interest accrues and the first Interest Payment Date) as the Securities of this series.
The Notes may be issued from time to time upon written order of the Company for the authentication
and delivery of Notes pursuant to Section 3.04 of the Base Indenture.
Section 2.02 Maturity. Unless a Redemption occurs prior to the Maturity Date
(defined below), the date upon which the Notes shall become due and payable at final maturity,
together with any accrued and unpaid interest, is, initially, March 31, 2042 (the “Maturity
Date”).
Section 2.03 Form, Payment and Appointment. Except as provided in Section
2.04, the Notes shall be issued in fully registered, certificated form, bearing identical
terms. Notes corresponding to Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes that are components of
Corporate Units shall be registered in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent. Principal of and
interest on the Notes will be payable, the transfer of such Notes will be registrable, and such
Notes will be exchangeable for Notes of a like aggregate principal amount bearing identical terms
and provisions, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in the Borough
of Manhattan, The City of New York, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the
Trustee; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of
the Company by check mailed to the Holder at such address as shall appear in the Security Register
or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Holder entitled to payment at
least 10 Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. Payments with respect to any
Global Note will be made by wire transfer to the Depositary.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, but
the Company may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
The Paying Agent and the Debt Security registrar for the Notes shall initially be the Trustee.
The Notes shall be issuable in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000 in excess thereof; provided, however, that upon the release by the
Collateral Agent of Notes underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes (other
than any release of Notes underlying Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes in connection
with (i) the creation of Treasury Units by Collateral Substitution, (ii) a Successful Remarketing,
(iii) Fundamental Change Early Settlement, (iv) Early Settlement with separate cash or (v) Cash
Settlement, in accordance with Section 3.13, Section 5.02, Section 5.03(b), Section 5.05, Section
5.08 or Section 5.03(a) of the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, as the case may be), the
8
Notes shall be issuable in denominations of $50 and integral multiples of $50 in excess
thereof, and the Company shall issue Notes in any such denominations if requested by the Purchase
Contract Agent on behalf of any Holder or Beneficial Owner.
Section 2.04 Global Notes. Notes corresponding to Applicable Ownership Interests in
Notes that are no longer a component of the Corporate Units and are released from the Collateral
Account will be issued in permanent global form (a “Global Note”), and if issued as one or
more Global Notes, the Depositary shall be The Depository Trust Company or such other depositary as
any officer of the Company may from time to time designate. On the date on which the Notes
registered in the name of the Purchase Contract Agent pursuant to Section 2.03 are issued,
the Company shall also issue one or more Global Notes, registered in the name of the Depositary or
its nominee, each having a zero principal balance. Upon the creation of Treasury Units, or the
recreation of Corporate Units or in any other case where the Collateral Agent releases Notes
underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes, an appropriate annotation shall be
made on the Schedule of Increases and Decreases in Note on the Global Notes held by the Depositary.
Notes represented by the Global Notes will be exchangeable for Notes in certificated form only (x)
if the Depositary notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for
the Global Notes or if at any time the Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under
the Exchange Act, and the Company has not appointed a successor Depositary within 90 days of that
notice or of its becoming aware of such cessation or (y) upon recreation of Corporate Units;
provided that the Notes in certificated form so issued in exchange for the Global Notes
shall be in denominations of $1,000 or any whole multiple of $1,000 above that amount and be of
like aggregate principal amount and tenor as the portion of the Global Note to be exchanged.
Except as provided above, owners of beneficial interest in a Global Note will not be entitled to
receive physical delivery of Notes in certificated form and will not be considered the Holders
thereof for any purpose under the Indenture. Unless and until such Global Note is exchanged for
Notes in certificated form, Global Notes may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any
payments on the Notes shall be made, only to the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, or to a
successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor
Depositary. Any Global Note that is exchangeable pursuant to clause (x) of the fourth sentence of
this Section 2.04 shall be exchangeable for Notes in certificated form registered in such
names as the Depositary shall direct.
Section 2.05 Interest.
(a) The Notes will bear interest initially at the rate of 11.50% per year (the
“Coupon Rate”) from and including March 16, 2009 to, but excluding, the Maturity
Date, or in the event of a Successful Remarketing, the Reset Effective Date. In the event
of a Successful Remarketing of the Notes, the Coupon Rate for all Notes (regardless of
whether such Notes are Remarketed Notes) will be reset by the Remarketing Agents to the
Reset Rate with effect from the Reset Effective Date, as set forth in Section 8.03.
If the Coupon Rate is so reset, the Notes will bear interest at the Reset Rate from and
including the Reset Effective Date to, but excluding, the Maturity Date or, if the Company
elects to make the Notes mature at any time earlier than the Maturity Date, such earlier
maturity date. The Notes shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, on any
overdue principal and interest at the Coupon Rate, unless a Successful Remarketing shall
have occurred, in which case interest on such amounts shall accrue at
9
the Reset Rate from and after the Reset Effective Date compounded semiannually
thereafter, if the Reset Rate is a fixed rate, or quarterly thereafter, if the Reset Rate is
a floating rate, in each case, in accordance with this Section 2.05(a).
(b) (i) Prior to and, if such date falls on a Quarterly Interest Payment Date (defined
below), on the Remarketing Settlement Date or, in the event no Successful Remarketing occurs, prior
to and on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, interest on the Notes shall be payable quarterly
in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year (each, a “Quarterly
Interest Payment Date”), commencing June 30, 2009, to the Person in whose name the relevant
Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment
Date.
(ii) After the Reset Effective Date, if any, and solely in the event that the Reset
Rate is a fixed rate, interest on the Notes shall be payable semiannually on March 31 and
September 30 of each year (each such payment date, a “Semiannual Interest Payment
Date”); provided, that, in the event the Reset Rate is a floating rate, interest
on the Notes shall continue to be paid on each Quarterly Interest Payment Date. In each
case such interest payments shall be made to the Person in whose name the relevant Notes are
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment
Date.
(c) The amount of interest payable on the Notes for any full Interest Period will be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable
for any period shorter than a full Interest Period for which interest is computed will be computed
on the basis of a 30-day month and, for any period less than a month, on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed per 30-day month. In the event that any scheduled Interest Payment Date
falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such Interest
Payment Date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any
interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made
on such originally scheduled Interest Payment Date; provided, however, if such
payment on the next Business Day would cause the Interest Payment Date to occur in the next
calendar year, then such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each
case with the same force and effect as if made on the applicable Interest Payment Date. If the
Company elects to remarket the Notes as floating rate notes (which election shall be in the
Company’s sole discretion), the Company may change the provisions in this Section 2.05(c) effective
on the Reset Effective Date to be consistent for notes that bear interest at a rate based on the
applicable index or base rate plus a reset spread.
Section 2.06. Deferral of Interest.
(a) Prior to March 31, 2012, in accordance with Section 2.06(c) below and
subject to the restrictions set forth in Section 2.06(d) and Section 9.02,
the Company may elect at one or more times to defer payment of interest on the Notes (such
unpaid interest, the “Deferred Interest”) for one or more consecutive Interest
Periods; provided that each deferred interest payment may only be deferred until the earlier
of (i) the third anniversary of the Interest Payment Date on which the original interest
payment was scheduled to be paid and (ii) March 31, 2014. For the avoidance of doubt, if
the
10
Company shall have paid all Deferred Interest in full, the Company may again defer
Interest Payments subject to and in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.06.
(b) Deferred Interest on the Notes will bear interest at the Coupon Rate or the Reset
Rate, as applicable, and such interest will be compounded on each Interest Payment Date
unless paid on the applicable Interest Payment Date, in each case in accordance with the
second sentence of Section 2.05(a).
(c) In the event that the Company elects to defer any Interest Payment, the Company
will notify the Trustee and the Holders in writing of such election at least one Business
Day prior to the Regular Record Date for the Interest Payment Date on which the Company
intends to begin a Deferral Period; provided, however, that the Company’s failure to pay the
interest owed on a particular Interest Payment Date shall also constitute the commencement
of a Deferral Period, unless such interest is paid within five (5) Business Days after such
Interest Payment Date, whether or not the Company provides a notice of deferral.
(d) The Company may pay Deferred Interest in cash at any time; provided, that if any
Deferred Interest has not been paid on or prior to the applicable Deferral Period End Date,
the Company must pay in cash or in the form of additional notes (“Additional Notes”) in a
principal amount equal to the aggregate amount of Deferred Interest on such date, to the
Holders of the Notes, whether or not they participate in any Remarketing. Deferred Interest
paid on any Interest Payment Date shall be payable to the Person in whose name the Notes are
registered at the closing of business on the Record Date next preceding such Interest
Payment Date; provided that the Company shall set a Special Record Date for the
payment of any Deferred Interest that the Company make on a date that is not an Interest
Payment Date.
(e) Any additional Notes shall be issued by the Company and shall include the following
terms:
(i) such Additional Notes will have a maturity date of March 31, 2014;
(ii) such Additional Notes shall bear interest at an annual rate that is equal to the
then market rate of interest for similar instruments (not to exceed 15%), as determined by a
nationally-recognized investment banking firm selected by the Company;
(iii) such Additional Notes shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all
of the Company’s then existing and future Senior Indebtedness and such Additional Notes
shall be pari passu with the Notes (prior to any modification to the terms of the Notes in
connection with any Remarketing); and
(iv) such Additional Notes shall be redeemable at the Company’s option at any time for
a price equal to their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest due thereon to but
excluding the date of redemption.
11
Section 2.07 Defeasance. For the avoidance of doubt, after the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date the Company may effect a defeasance of the Notes in accordance with Section 13.01
or Section 13.02 of the Base Indenture.
Section 2.08 No Sinking Fund or Repayment at Option of the Holder. The Notes are not
entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund and Section 4.05 of the Base Indenture shall not apply
to the Notes.
Section 2.09 Increase and Decrease. In the event that any Notes underlying Pledged
Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes are to be released from the Pledge following a Collateral
Substitution, Early Settlement or Fundamental Change Early Settlement pursuant to the Purchase
Contract and Pledge Agreement (a “Released Note”), such release and delivery shall be
evidenced by an endorsement by the Collateral Agent on the Note held by the Collateral Agent (the
“Pledged Note”) reflecting a reduction in the principal amount of such Pledged Note equal
in amount (the “Reduced Principal Amount”) to the principal amount of the Released Note.
The Collateral Agent shall confirm any such Reduced Principal Amount by telecopying or otherwise
delivering a photocopy of such endorsement made on the Pledged Note evidencing such Reduced
Principal Amount to the Trustee at the telecopier number or address of the Purchase Contract Agent
provided for notices to the Purchase Contract Agent in the Purchase Contract and Pledge
Agreement(or at such other telecopier or address as the Trustee shall provide to the Collateral
Agent). Upon receipt of such confirmation, the Trustee shall instruct the Custodial Agent to
increase the principal amount of a Global Note held by the Custodial Agent in an amount equal to
the Reduced Principal Amount by an endorsement made by the Custodial Agent on such Global Note to
reflect such increase. In the event that a Note is transferred to the Collateral Agent pursuant to
Section 3.14 of the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement (a “Subjected Note”) in
connection with the recreation of Corporate Units, such transfer shall be evidenced by an
endorsement by the Collateral Agent on the Pledged Note held by the Collateral Agent reflecting an
increase in the principal amount of such Pledged Note equal in amount (the “Increased Principal
Amount”) to the principal amount of such Subjected Note. The Collateral Agent shall confirm
any such Increased Principal Amount by telecopying or otherwise delivering a photocopy of such
endorsement made on the Pledged Note evidencing such Increased Principal Amount to the Trustee at
the telecopier number or address of the Purchase Contract Agent provided for notices to the
Purchase Contract Agent in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement (or at such other telecopier
or address as the Trustee shall provide to the Collateral Agent). Upon receipt of such
confirmation, the Trustee shall instruct the Custodial Agent to decrease the principal amount of
the Global Note held by the Custodial Agent in an amount equal to the Increased Principal Amount by
an endorsement made by the Custodial Agent on such Global Note to reflect such decrease.

Notes outstanding, the Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed by lot, pro rata or by
another method the Trustee considers fair and appropriate.

Redemption Date at the Redemption Price. Unless the Company defaults in the payment of the
Redemption Price, once notice of Redemption is given and funds are irrevocably deposited, in each
case, in accordance with Section 3.04, (a) interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes
immediately prior to the close of business on the Redemption Date and (b) the Notes shall no longer
be outstanding and all rights of the Holders in respect of the Notes shall terminate and lapse
(other than the right to receive the Redemption Price upon surrender of such Notes but without
interest on such Redemption Price).
Section 3.04 Redemption Procedures. On or prior to the Redemption Date, the Company
shall deposit with the Trustee immediately available funds in an amount sufficient to pay, on the
Redemption Date, the aggregate Redemption Price for Notes being redeemed. If the Company gives an
irrevocable notice of Redemption with respect to the Notes pursuant to Section 3.02, and
the Company has paid to the Trustee the Redemption Price of the Notes to be redeemed, then, on the
Redemption Date, the Trustee will irrevocably deposit such funds with the Depositary. The Company
will also give the Depositary irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price in
immediately available funds to the Holders of beneficial interests in the Global Notes. Interest
to be paid on or before the Redemption Date for any Notes called for Redemption shall be payable to
the Persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record
Dates for the related Interest Payment Dates. If payment of the Redemption Price is improperly
withheld or refused and not paid, then interest on the redeemed Notes will continue to accrue and
distributions on the Notes will continue to accumulate at the Coupon Rate or Reset Rate, as the
case may be, from the original Redemption Date scheduled to the actual date of payment, in which
case, the actual payment date will be considered the Redemption Date for purposes of calculating
the Redemption Price. In exchange for the unredeemed portion of such surrendered Notes, new Notes
in an aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued.
Section 3.05 No Other Redemption. Except as set forth in this Article III, the Notes
shall not be redeemable by the Company prior to the Maturity Date.

ARTICLE VIII
REMARKETING
15
Section 8.01 Remarketing Procedures. (a) Unless a Successful Early Remarketing or a
Termination Event has occurred prior to the Applicable Remarketing Period, the Company shall engage
the Remarketing Agent(s) pursuant to the Remarketing Agreement for the Remarketing of the Notes.
The Company will, not later than 10 Business Days prior to each Remarketing Announcement Date,
request that the Depositary or its nominee notify the Beneficial Owners or Depositary Participants
holding Separate Notes, Corporate Units and Treasury Units, and shall provide a copy of such
request to the Collateral Agent and the Purchase Contract Agent, in the case of an Early
Remarketing, of the Company’s intent to attempt an Early Remarketing in the Applicable Remarketing
Period, and in all cases, of the proposed Remarketing Date or Dates and the procedures to be
followed in each Remarketing, including the procedures to be followed by Holders of Separate Notes
to participate in a Remarketing, the applicable procedures for Holders of Corporate Units to create
Treasury Units or Holders of Treasury Units to recreate Corporate Units, the applicable procedures
for Holders of Corporate Units to effect an Early Settlement and, in the case of a Final
Remarketing, applicable procedures to effect a Cash Settlement and the applicable procedures that
must be followed by a Holder of Separate Notes if such Holder wishes to exercise its Put Right or
by a Holder if such Holder elects not to exercise its Put Right.
(b) Each Holder of Separate Notes may elect to have Separate Notes held by such Holder
remarketed in any Remarketing. A Holder making such an election must, pursuant to the Purchase
Contract and Pledge Agreement, notify the Custodial Agent and deliver such Separate Notes to the
Custodial Agent prior to 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately
preceding the first day of the Applicable Remarketing Period (but no earlier than the fifth
Business Day immediately preceding such first day) in accordance with the provisions set forth in
the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement. Any such notice and delivery may not be conditioned
upon the level at which the Reset Rate is established in the Remarketing. Any such notice and
delivery may be withdrawn prior to 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day
immediately preceding the first day of the Applicable Remarketing Period in accordance with the
provisions set forth in the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement. Any such notice and delivery
not withdrawn by such time will be irrevocable with respect to each Remarketing to occur during the
Applicable Remarketing Period. Pursuant to Sections 5.02 and 5.03 of the Purchase Contract and
Pledge Agreement, by 11:00 a.m., New York City time, in the case of an Early Remarketing, or
promptly after 4:00 p.m., New York City time, in the case of a Final Remarketing, on the Business
Day immediately preceding the first day of the Applicable Remarketing Period, the Custodial Agent,
based on the notices and deliveries received by it prior to such time, shall notify the Remarketing
Agent of the aggregate principal amount of Separate Notes tendered for Remarketing. Pursuant and
subject to Section 5.02 or 5.03 of the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, Notes that underlie
Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes included in Corporate Units will be deemed tendered for
Remarketing and will be remarketed in accordance with the terms of the Remarketing Agreement and
the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement.
(c) The right of each Holder of Remarketed Notes to have such Notes remarketed and sold on any
Remarketing Date shall be subject to the conditions that (i)(A) the Remarketing Agent conducts any
Early Remarketing or (B) in the case of a Final Remarketing, that no Successful Early Remarketing
has occurred pursuant to the terms of the Remarketing Agreement, (ii) a Termination Event has not
occurred prior to such Remarketing Date, (iii) the Remarketing Agent(s) are able to find a
purchaser or purchasers for Remarketed Notes at the
16
Remarketing Price based on the Reset Rate and (iv) the purchaser or purchasers of the
Remarketed Notes deliver the purchase price therefor to the Remarketing Agent as and when required.
(d) Neither the Trustee, the Company nor the Remarketing Agent(s) shall be obligated in any
case to provide funds to make payment upon tender of Notes for remarketing.
Section 8.02 Remarketing. (a) Unless a Termination Event has occurred prior to such
date, if the Company elects to conduct an Early Remarketing during an Early Remarketing Period
selected by the Company pursuant to the Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, the Remarketing
Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to remarket the Remarketed Notes at the applicable
Remarketing Price. If the Remarketing Agent is unsuccessful on the first Early Remarketing Date
during such Early Remarketing Period, a subsequent Remarketing shall be attempted (unless
impracticable) by the Remarketing Agent on each of the two following Early Remarketing Dates in
that Early Remarketing Period until a Successful Early Remarketing occurs. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Company shall determine in its sole discretion if and when to attempt an Early
Remarketing. During any Early Remarketing Period, the Company may postpone any Remarketing in its
absolute discretion.
(b) In the case there is no Successful Early Remarketing during any Early Remarketing Period
or no Early Remarketing occurs on any Early Remarketing Date, if any (either because the
Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket the Notes at the applicable Remarketing Price or because a
condition precedent to the Remarketing has not been satisfied), and unless a Termination Event has
occurred prior to such date, on the Final Remarketing Date or Dates in the Final Remarketing
Period, the Remarketing Agent shall use its reasonable efforts to remarket the Remarketed Notes at
the applicable Remarketing Price. The Remarketing on any Remarketing Date will be considered
successful and no further attempts will be made if the resulting proceeds are at least equal to the
applicable Remarketing Price. The Company may not postpone a Remarketing during the Final
Remarketing Period.
Section 8.03 Reset Rate. (a) In connection with each Remarketing, the Remarketing
Agent shall determine the Reset Rate in consultation with the Company (rounded to the nearest
one-thousandth of one percent (0.00001) per annum).
(b) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Reset Rate shall in no event exceed
the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.
(c) In the event of a Failed Final Remarketing or if no Applicable Ownership Interests in
Notes are included in Corporate Units and none of the Holders of the Separate Notes elect to have
their Notes remarketed in any Remarketing, the applicable interest rate on the Notes will not be
reset and will continue to be the Coupon Rate.
(d) In the event of a Successful Remarketing, the Coupon Rate shall be reset on the Reset
Effective Date to the Reset Rate as determined by the Remarketing Agent under the Remarketing
Agreement, and the Company shall request the Depository to notify its Depository Participants
holding Notes of the maturity date, Reset Rate, interest payment dates, and any other modified
terms established for the Notes during the Remarketing on the Business Day following
17
the date of the Successful Remarketing. Upon a Successful Remarketing, the Reset Rate shall
apply to all outstanding Notes, whether or not the Holders of all outstanding Notes participated in
such Remarketing.
(e) If there is a Failed Remarketing, the Company will cause a notice of the unsuccessful
Remarketing to be published on the Business Day following the Applicable Remarketing Period (which
notice, in the event of a Failed Final Remarketing, shall be published not later than 9:00 a.m.,
New York City time, and shall include the procedures that must be followed if a Holder wishes to
exercise its Put Right), in each case, by making a timely release to any appropriate news agency,
including Bloomberg Business News and the Dow Xxxxx News Service.
Section 8.04 Failed Remarketing. If, by 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on any
Remarketing Date, the Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket all of the Remarketed Notes at the
Remarketing Price pursuant to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Remarketing Agreement, or
the Remarketing has not occurred because a condition precedent to the Remarketing has not been
fulfilled, a Failed Remarketing shall be deemed to have occurred.
Section 8.05 Put Right. (a) Subject to paragraph (b) hereof, if there has not been
a Successful Remarketing prior to the end of the Final Remarketing Period, Holders of Notes (other
than Additional Notes) will, subject to this Section 8.05, have the right (the “Put
Right”) to require the Company to purchase such Notes on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date,
at a price per Note to be purchased equal to the principal amount of the applicable Note, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (the “Put
Price”). For the avoidance of doubt, Holders of the Additional Notes will not have the Put
Right with respect to the Additional Notes.
(b) The Put Right of Holders of Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes that are part of
Corporate Units will be deemed to be automatically exercised in accordance with Section 5.03 of the
Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement unless any such Holder has settled the related Purchase
Contracts with separate cash on or prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date pursuant to the
Purchase Contract and Pledge Agreement, in which case the Company is not required to provide notice
of Redemption or follow any of the other Redemption procedures outlined under Article III.
(c) The Put Right of a Holder of a Separate Note shall only be exercisable upon delivery of a
notice substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B hereto, together with such Holder’s Separate
Notes, to the Trustee by such Holder at or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second
Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. On or prior to the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Company shall deposit with the Trustee immediately available
funds in an amount sufficient to pay, on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the aggregate Put
Price of all Separate Notes with respect to which a Holder has exercised a Put Right. In exchange
for any Separate Notes surrendered pursuant to the Put Right, the Trustee shall then distribute
such amount to the Holders of such Separate Notes.
(d) Notes purchased pursuant to the Put Right shall be cancelled by the Trustee.
18
Section 8.06 Modification of Terms in connection with a Successful Remarketing.
(a) In connection with a Successful Remarketing of the Notes, without the consent of any of
the Holders of the Notes, in consultation with the Remarketing Agent, the Company may (but will not
be required to) make any of the following elections:
(i) change the stated maturity of the Notes to any date on or after March 31, 2014 and
earlier than March 31, 2042;
(ii) change the Ranking of the notes to senior or senior subordinated obligations
(including adding appropriate covenants and Events of Default);
(iii) add to, modify or remove altogether the Company’s Redemption rights under
Article III of this Supplemental Indenture No. 1 on the Notes; provided that there
will be at least two years between the Reset Effective Date and any modified Redemption
Date; and
(iv) if the Notes are remarketed with a floating rate, modify the Business Day and day
count convention to conform to market practice for floating-rate notes bearing interest at a
rate determined by reference to the applicable index.
(b) In addition, in connection with a Successful Remarketing of the Notes, without the consent
of any of the Holders of the Notes, the Company will remove interest deferral provisions of the
Notes provided in Section 2.06;
(c) Any such elections described above shall be made by irrevocable notice to the Trustee, who
will notify the Holders of the Corporate Units and Separate Notes at least 15 days prior to the
first day of any Applicable Remarketing Period, and will be effective on the Reset Effective Date
and will apply to all of the Notes, regardless of whether the Notes were included in the Successful
Remarketing.
ARTICLE IX
ADDITIONAL EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND CERTAIN RESTRICTIONS
Section 9.01 Additional Events of Default in Connection with the Put Right. Solely
with respect to the Notes, in addition to the events listed as Events of Default in Section 7.01 of
the Base Indenture, each of the following events shall also constitute an Event of Default:
(a) if the Company has not paid all the Deferred Interest on or prior to the 30th
day following the Purchase Contract Settlement Date either in cash or in Additional Notes; or
(b) if the Company has not paid the Put Price on the date payment is due following the
exercise of the Put Right by any Holder of Notes.
If the Company elects to change the ranking of the Notes to senior or senior subordinated
obligations in connection with a Successful Remarketing, then the Events of Default with respect to
the Notes may be modified as the Company deems appropriate.
19
Section 9.02 Dividend and Other Payment Stoppage during Interest Deferral and Certain
Other Circumstances.
(a) The Company hereby agrees that until the earlier of (i) the Purchase Contract Settlement
Date for the Notes and (ii) the Reset Effective Date, if: (w) an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing; (x) the Company has given notice of its election to defer Interest Payments but the
related Deferral Period has not yet commenced; (y) a Deferral Period is continuing with respect to
the Notes; or (z) any Additional Notes are outstanding, the Company will not:
(i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or
make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the Company’s Capital Stock;
(ii) make any payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on, or repay,
purchase or redeem any of the Company’s Debt Securities that upon the Company’s liquidation
rank pari passu with, or junior to, the Notes (as of their date of issuance and not taking
into account any modifications to the terms of the Notes in connection with a Successful
Remarketing); or
(iii) make any guarantee payments regarding any guarantee by the Company of securities
of any of its Subsidiaries if the guarantee ranks pari passu with, or junior in interest to,
the Notes (as of their date of issuance and not taking into account any modifications to the
terms of the Notes in connection with a Successful Remarketing).
(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.02(a), the restrictions contemplated
by Sections 9.02(a)(i) though 9.02(a)(iii) shall not apply to:
(i) purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of the Company’s Capital
Stock in connection with:
(1) any Employment Benefit Plan or other compensatory contract or arrangement offered
by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or
(2) a dividend reinvestment, stock purchase plan or other similar plan;
(ii) purchases or repurchases of shares of the Company’s Capital Stock pursuant to a
contractually binding requirement to buy such Capital Stock existing prior to the
commencement of the Deferral Period, including under a contractually binding stock
repurchase plan;
(iii) the payment of any dividend during a Deferral Period within 60 days after the
date of declaration thereof, if at the date of declaration of such dividend no Deferral
Period was in effect;
(iv) any exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock
(or any Capital Stock of any of its Subsidiaries) for or to any class or series
20

for or to any class or series of the Company’s Capital Stock;
(v) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s Capital Stock in

passu with or junior to such equity securities;
(viii) any payment of current interest or deferred interest on pari passu securities
during a Deferral Period that is made pro rata to the amounts due on pari passu securities

of the instrument governing the same.
ARTICLE X

Section 10.01 Tax Treatment. The Company agrees, and by acceptance of a Corporate
Unit or a Separate Note, each Holder will be deemed to have agreed (1) to treat each beneficial
owner of a Corporate Unit as the owner of the Applicable Ownership Interest in Notes constituting a
part of such Corporate Unit for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (2) to treat the Notes as
indebtedness for U.S. federal, state and local tax purposes, which is subject to the contingent
payment debt regulations.

ISIN NUMBER: US478366AT45
No. | $[ ] |
Xxxxxxx Controls, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (hereinafter called the “Company,”
which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for
value received, hereby promises to pay to [ ], or registered assigns, the principal
sum as set forth in the Schedule of Increases or Decreases in Note attached hereto, which amount
shall not exceed $450,000,000 (or $460,000,000 if the Underwriters exercise their over-allotment
option in full), on March 31, 2042 (such date is hereinafter referred to as the “Maturity
Date”), and to pay interest thereon from the original issuance date or the most recent Interest
Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly in arrears on March
31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each year, commencing June 30, 2009, at the rate of
11.50% per annum (the “Coupon Rate”) to, but excluding, the Maturity Date, or in the event
of a Successful Remarketing, the Remarketing Settlement Date, until the principal hereof is paid or
duly provided for or made available for payment; provided that in the event of a Successful
1
Remarketing of the Notes, the Coupon Rate for all Notes (regardless of whether such Notes are
Remarketed Notes) shall be the Reset Rate from and including the Reset Effective Date to, but
excluding, the Maturity Date or, if the Company elects to make the Notes mature at any time earlier
than the Maturity Date, such earlier maturity date; provided, further, that if the
Reset Rate is a fixed rate, interest on the Notes shall be payable semiannually on March 31 and
September 30 of each year. The Notes shall bear interest, to the extent permitted by law, on any
overdue principal and interest at the Coupon Rate, unless a Successful Remarketing shall have
occurred, in which case interest on such amounts shall accrue at the Reset Rate from and after the
Reset Effective Date compounded semiannually thereafter, if the Reset Rate is a fixed rate, or
quarterly thereafter, if the Reset Rate is a floating rate. The Reset Rate, if any, shall be
established pursuant to the terms of the Indenture (as such term is defined on the reverse of this
Note) and the Remarketing Agreement.
The amount of interest payable on the Notes for any full Interest Period will be computed on
the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The amount of interest payable for
any period shorter than a full Interest Period for which interest is computed will be computed on
the basis of a 30-day month and, for any period less than a month, on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed per 30-day month. In the event that any scheduled Interest Payment Date
falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such Interest
Payment Date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any
interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made
on such originally scheduled Interest Payment Date; provided, however, if such
payment on the next Business Day would cause the Interest Payment Date to occur in the next
calendar year, then such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each
case with the same force and effect as if made on the applicable Interest Payment Date.
Except as set forth above, payment of the principal of and interest on this Note will be made
at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in The Borough of Manhattan, The
City of New York, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, 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 payment of interest may be
made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Holder at such address as shall appear in
the security register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Holder
entitled to payment at least 10 Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date.
Payments with respect to any Global Note will be made by wire transfer to the Depositary.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note 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 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 of the Company (herein called the
“Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture (the
“Base Indenture”), dated as of March 16, 2009, between the Company and U.S. Bank National

2009, between the Company and the Trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture No. 1” and, together
with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), to which Indenture reference is hereby made for
a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of
the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the
Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series
designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $450,000,000 (up to
$460,000,000 if the Underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full); provided,
however, that the Company, without notice to or consent of the Holders, may issue
additional Securities of this series and thereby increase such principal amount in the future, on
the same terms and conditions (except for issue date, public offering price and, if applicable, the
date from which interest accrues and the first Interest Payment Date) and with the same CUSIP
number as the Securities of this series.
All terms used in this Note that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meaning assigned
to them in the Indenture.
The Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, on a date not earlier than March 31,
2014, at a price per Note equal to the Redemption Price, as set forth in the Indenture. Except as
set forth in this paragraph and in Article III of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, the Company may
not redeem the Notes at its option prior to the Maturity Date.
Pursuant to Section 8.05 of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, if there has not been a
Successful Remarketing prior to the end of the Final Remarketing Period, Holders of Notes will have
the right (the “Put Right”) to require the Company to purchase such Notes on the Purchase
Contract Settlement Date, in the case of Separate Notes upon a notice to the Trustee at or prior to
11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day prior to the Purchase Contract
Settlement Date, at a price per Note equal to the principal amount of the applicable Note, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding the Purchase Contract Settlement date (the “Put
Price”).
The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal
of the Notes 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 entry into one or more
supplemental indentures for purposes of amending or modifying the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture or the
A-4
Supplemental Indenture No. 1 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 all
series affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified
percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of
all Notes, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain
past defaults under the Indenture and the consequences thereof. Any such consent or waiver by the
Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of
this Note and of any Note 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 Note.
Notes are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any
integral multiple thereof, except as provided in Section 2.03 of the Supplemental Indenture
No. 1.
Except as provided in Section 2.04 of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, the Notes
shall be issued in fully registered, certificated form, bearing identical terms. Principal of and
interest on the Notes will be payable, the transfer of such Notes will be registrable, and such
Notes will be exchangeable for Notes of a like aggregate principal amount bearing identical terms
and provisions, at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in the Borough
of Manhattan, The City of New York.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of the Notes, but
the Company may require payment from the Holder of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.
Pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Supplemental Indenture No. 1, Notes corresponding to
Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes that are no longer a component of the Corporate Units and
are released from the Collateral Account will be issued as Global Notes. Except as otherwise
provided in the Indenture, or except upon recreation of Corporate Units or in any other case where
the Collateral Agent releases Notes underlying the Pledged Applicable Ownership Interests in Notes,
Notes represented by Global Notes will not be exchangeable for, and will not otherwise be issuable
as, Notes in certificated form. Unless and until such Global Notes are exchanged for Notes in
certificated form, Global Notes may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any payments on
the Notes shall be made, only to the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary, or to a successor
Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Trustee and any agent
of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the
owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The Company agrees, and by acceptance of a Corporate Unit or a Separate Note, each Holder will
be deemed to have agreed (1) to treat each beneficial owner of a Corporate Unit as the owner of the
Applicable Ownership Interest in Notes constituting a part of such Corporate
A-5
Unit for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (2) to treat the Notes as indebtedness for U.S.
federal, state and local tax purposes, which is subject to the contingent payment debt
regulations.
THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK.
