MEDIUM-TERM NOTE,
SERIES B
(Nine Month Renewable Floating Rate)
XXXXXXX XXXXX & CO., INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer" or the
"Company", which terms include any successor corporation under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ,
or registered assigns, (subject only as provided below) the principal sum of
ONE ($ ) on the Maturity Date occurring on October 9,
1996, and to pay interest thereon, as described below, until the principal
hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. The principal amount of the
Note shall be reduced upon any exercise of the Option to Elect Early
Termination, all as provided below.
Interests in this Note (which are sometimes referred to herein where the
context so requires as the "Notes"), and any certificated Notes which may be
issued in exchange herefor pursuant to the terms hereof, are issuable in
denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Notes are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company prior to
maturity.
Interest on this Note will be payable on the second Wednesday of each month
(each an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing in November 1993, and at maturity.
The per annum rate of interest with respect to this Note will be reset monthly
on each Interest Payment Date and will be equal to LIBOR (as defined herein),
plus 0.05% (five one-hundredths of one percent).
Notwithstanding the first paragraph hereof, this Note will mature on the
Interest Payment Date occurring in October 1994 unless the maturity thereof is
automatically extended with respect to all or a part of the principal amount
hereof. During the period beginning on the sixtieth (60th) calendar day
immediately preceding, and ending on the thirty-second (32nd) calendar day
immediately preceding, each Interest Payment Date (each such period being
referred to herein as an "Election Period", and each such Interest Payment Date
being referred to herein as the "Interest Payment Date applicable to such
Election Period"), commencing with the Interest Payment Date occurring in
January 1994, the Holder of this Note will have the option to elect a final
Maturity Date (as defined herein) for this Note (or for any interest herein of
an authorized denomination) which is the Interest Payment Date occurring on the
second Wednesday of the ninth month after the Interest Payment Date applicable
to such Election Period. Any or all of the interest herein as to which such
election has been exercised is referred to herein as an "Exercised Note". If
the Holder of this Note does not so elect, the maturity of this Note shall be
automatically extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring on the second
Wednesday of the tenth month after the Interest Payment Date applicable to such
Election Period. The "Maturity Date" of any Note shall mean the Interest
Payment Date occurring in October 1994 or any later date to which the maturity
of such Note is automatically extended as described in the previous sentence.
The maturity of the Notes will not be so automatically extended to any date
after October 9, 1996.
The Holder of this Note may elect to terminate the automatic extension of
the maturity of this Note or of any interest herein (of an authorized
denomination) by surrendering this Note during any Election Period, commencing
with the Election Period related to the Interest Payment Date occurring in
January 1994, to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in The City of New
York (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the Holders of the
Notes, provided that the Company shall at all times maintain an office for the
exchange contemplated below in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York),
with notice to Xxxxxxx Lynch, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, World
Financial Center, North Tower, 10th Floor, New York, New York 10281-1307,
Attention: Medium-Term Notes Desk (telephone (000) 000-0000), and with the form
entitled "Option to Elect Termination" which is appended hereto duly completed.
Such notice must be received by the Trustee by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the last day for giving such notice. The date on which such surrender occurs
shall be the "Election Date" with respect to portion of this Note as to which
the automatic extension shall have been terminated. Upon the exercise of an
Option to Elect Termination, the principal amount of this Note subject to such
election shall be endorsed by the Trustee on the Schedule hereto, whereupon the
principal amount hereof shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so
endorsed. The Trustee shall deliver to the Holder in exchange therefor a new
Note (substantially in the form of Annex 1 hereto) imprinted with a legend
indicating (i) that an election to terminate the automatic extension of the
maturity of such Note has been made, (ii) the Election Date and (iii) the
Maturity Date with respect to such new Note. Any Note or Notes issued in
exchange for or upon registration of transfer of any Notes so legended shall
also be legended to the same effect. An election to terminate the automatic
extension of the maturity of this Note (or of any portion thereof, as the case
may be) shall be irrevocable and binding on the Holder and any subsequent Holder
of this Note unless waived by the Company prior to the close of business on the
third Business Day following the Election Period during which the Election Date
occurs. (In the event
2
that the Holder of a Note issued in certificated form, if any, wishes to
terminate the automatic extension of the maturity of a portion of such Note that
is an amount equal to $100,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof, the Holder shall surrender such Note as described above, with the
"Option to Elect Termination" form duly completed, in exchange for (i) a Note in
the principal amount as to which the automatic extension of maturity has been
terminated, legended as described above, and (ii) a Note for the remaining
principal amount as to which the automatic extension of maturity has not been
terminated and which has not been so legended.) All questions as to whether and
when an election to terminate the automatic extension of the maturity of any
Note has been made shall be determined by the Company, whose determination shall
be final and binding.
With respect to any Exercised Note, interest will be payable at such times,
and will be calculated by such method, as is provided in the form of Note
included as Annex 1 hereto.
Interest payable on each interest Payment Date will include interest
accrued from and including the first day of the Interest Period relating to such
Interest Payment Date to and including the last day of such Interest Period.
"Interest Period" shall mean the period beginning on and including October 12,
1993 to but excluding November 10, 1993 and, thereafter, each successive period
beginning on and including the day after the last day of the preceding Interest
Period and ending on but excluding the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.
This Note will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus 0.05%
(five one-hundredths of one percent), and such rate shall be reset each Interest
Payment Date other than at maturity (each such date, together with the original
issue date of the Notes, October 12, 1993, being referred to in connection with
Notes other than Exercised Notes as an "Interest Reset Date"). "LIBOR" with
respect to any Interest Determination Date (as defined below) shall equal the
rate which appears on Telerate Page 3750, "British Bankers Association Interest
Settlement Rates", under the column entitled "U.S.D.", which appears as of 11:00
A.M., London time, on the applicable Interest Determination Date, for deposits
(in United States dollars for a period of one month) commencing on the second
day on which dealings in deposits in United States dollars are transacted in the
London interbank market (a "London Banking Day") immediately following such
Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if no such rate appears,
the Calculation Agent shall request the principal London office of four major
banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to
provide the Calculation Agent with a quotation of their offered rates at
approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on such Interest Determination Date for
deposits (in United States dollars for a period of one month and in a principal
amount equal to an amount that is representative for a single transaction in
such market at such time) commencing on the second London Banking Day
immediately following such Interest Determination Date. If at least two such
quotations are provided, LIBOR for such Interest Determination Date shall equal
the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are
provided, LIBOR for such Interest Determination Date shall equal the arithmetic
mean of the rates quoted by three major banks in The City of New York, as
selected by the Calculation Agent, at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City
time, on such Interest Determination Date for loans to leading European Banks
(in United States dollars for a period of one month and in a principal amount
equal to an amount that is representative for a single
3
transaction in such market at such time) commencing on the second London Banking
Day following such Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if the
banks selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as
described in this sentence, LIBOR will be LIBOR in effect on such Interest
Determination Date. "Telerate Page 3750" means the display designated as page
"3750" on the Dow Xxxxx Telerate Service (or such page as may replace the 3750
page on that service or such other service or services as may be nominated by
the British Bankers' Association for the purpose of displaying London interbank
offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits). "Interest Determination Date" with
respect to LIBOR shall be the second London Business Day (as defined below)
preceding each Interest Reset Date. A "London Business Day" is a day on which
dealings in deposits in United States dollars are transacted in the London
interbank market.
Interest on the Notes will be computed and paid on the basis of the actual
number of days for which interest accrues in each Interest Period divided by
360.
The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of the Holder of any Note,
provide the interest rate then in effect. The Calculation Agent is Xxxxxxx
Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated. All calculations made by the
Calculation Agent in the absence of a determination of manifest error shall be
conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holders of the Notes.
Interest shall be paid on each Interest Payment Date to the Holder of this
Note on the Regular Record Date. The "Regular Record Date" shall be the date 15
calendar days (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. 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; provided, however, that at the option of the
Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the
Person entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the Security
Register. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, payment of principal of and
interest payable at maturity
4
on this Note shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a
designated account maintained in the United States upon (i) receipt of written
notice by the Trustee from the Holder hereof not less than one Business Day
prior to the due date of such principal payment and (ii) presentation of this
Note to the Trustee. The Holder of not less than $1,000,000 Notes may by written
notice to the Trustee (or at such other address as the Company shall give notice
in writing) not less than 15 days prior to an Interest Payment Date, arrange to
have the interest payable an all Notes held by such Holder on such Interest
Payment Date, and all subsequent Interest Payment Dates until written notice to
the contrary is given to the Trustee, made by wire transfer of immediately
available funds to a designated account maintained in the United States.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by or on
behalf of The Chase Manhattan Bank (National Association), 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

indenture (the "Indenture") dated as of October 1, 1993, between the Company and

Indenture and all indentures supplemental 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

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
denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
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.
If an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to hire
Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be
declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the
Indenture.

Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be
affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the
consent of the Holders of 66% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at
any time Outstanding, as defined in the Indenture, of each series affected
thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of
specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each
series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities
of each series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of
the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their
consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this 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.

the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at
the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein described.

therein and on the face hereof, the transfer of this Note may be registered on

registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough

aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

MEDIUM-TERM NOTE,
SERIES B
(Nine Month Renewable Floating Rate)
XXXXXXX XXXXX & CO., INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer" or the
"Company," which terms include any successor corporation under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ,
or registered assigns, the Principal Amount of this Note (as indicated above)
on the Maturity Date (as indicated above, which shall not be later than
October 9, 1996), and to pay interest thereon, as described below, until the
principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. This Note is a part
of a series of Notes originally issued by the Company on October 12, 1993.
Pursuant to the terms of such Notes, the Option to Elect Termination has been
exercised with respect to this Note, and this Note shall mature on the Maturity
Date specified and have the terms and conditions specified herein. The form of
this Note as originally issued by the Company, which governed
the terms and conditions hereof prior to the exercise of the Option to Elect
Termination (the "Initial Note Form") is attached as Annex I hereto. Terms used
but not defined herein but which are defined in the Initial Note Form shall have
the meanings provided therein.
Interests in this Note (which are sometimes referred to herein where the
context so requires as the "Notes"), and any certificated Notes which may be
issued in exchange herefor pursuant to the terms hereof, are issuable in
denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Notes are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company prior to
maturity.
Interest on this Note will be payable on each monthly Interest Payment Date
to and including the Interest Payment Date (as provided in the Initial Note
Form) applicable to the Election Period relevant to this Note (the "Last Monthly
Interest Payment Date"), and thereafter on the second Wednesday of the third
month and sixth month following the Last Monthly Interest Payment Date, and at
maturity, "Interest Payment Dates" with respect to this Note shall refer to such
dates. The per annum rate of interest payable with respect to this Note will
(on and after such Last Monthly Interest Payment Date) be reset weekly and will
be equal to the Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate (as defined herein), plus
0.10% (ten one-hundredths of one percent). Interest prior to such Last Monthly
Interest Payment date will accrue at a rate as specified in the Initial Note
Form.
Interest payable on each Interest Payment Date will include interest
accrued from and including the first day of the Interest Period relating to such
Interest Payment Date to and including the last day of such Interest Period.
"Interest Period" shall mean the period beginning on and including October 12,
1993 to but excluding November 10, 1993 and, thereafter, each successive period
beginning on and including the day after the last day of the preceding Interest
Period and ending on but excluding the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.
The per annum rate of interest payable with respect to this Note subsequent
to the applicable last Monthly Interest Payment Date will be reset as of the
Wednesday of each week at a rate equal to the arithmetic average (mean) of the
Federal Funds Rates (as defined herein) in effect with respect to each calendar
day from and including the second preceding Thursday to and including the next
preceding Wednesday (such period is the "Calculation Period", and such average
of the Federal Funds Rates is the "Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate"), plus
0.10% (ten one-hundredths of one percent). Such average rate will 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 herein, "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
"Statistical Release H.15(519). Selected Interest Rates" or any successor
publication ("H.15(519)") under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)" or, if
not so published by 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date
pertaining to the applicable Business Day, the Federal Funds Rate will be the
interest rate on such Business
2
Day 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 Quotations") 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 will 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 will 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 shall be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such
Business Day or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business
Day, or (ii) the Business Day prior to the Interest Payment Date on which such
accrued interest will be payable.
Interest on the Notes will be computed and paid on the basis of the actual
number of days for which interest accrues in each Interest Period divided by
360.
The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of the Holder of any Note,
provide the interest rate then in effect. The Calculation Agent is Xxxxxxx
Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated. All calculations made by the
Calculation Agent in the absence of a determination of manifest error shall be
conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holders of the Notes.
Interest shall be paid on each Interest Payment Date to the Holder of this
Note on the Regular Record Date. The "Regular Record Date" shall be the date 15
calendar days (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. 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 duty 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; provided, however, that at the option of the
Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the
3
address of the Person entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the
Security Register. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, payment of principal
of and interest payable at maturity on this Note shall be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to a designated account maintained in the United
States upon (i) receipt of written notice by the Trustee from the Holder hereof
not less than one Business Day prior to the due date of such principal payment
and (ii) presentation of this Note to the Trustee. The Holder of not less than
$1,000,000 Notes may by written notice to the Trustee (or at such other address
as the Company shall give notice in writing) not less than 15 days prior to an
Interest Payment Date, arrange to have the interest payable on all Notes held by
such Holder on such Interest Payment Date, and all subsequent Interest Payment
Dates until written notice to the contrary is given to the Trustee, made by wire

XXXXXXX XXXXX & CO., INC.
MEDIUM-TERM NOTE,
SERIES B
(Nine Month Renewable Floating Rate)
XXXXXXX XXXXX & CO., INC., a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer" or the
"Company", which terms include any successor corporation under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ,
or registered assigns, the Principal Amount of this Note (as indicated above)
on the Maturity Date (as indicated above, which shall not be later than
October 9, 1996), and to pay interest thereon, as described below, until the
principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. This Note is a part
of a series of Notes originally issued by the Company on October 12, 1993.
Pursuant to the terms of such Notes, the Option to Elect Termination has been
exercised with respect to this Note, and this Note shall mature on the Maturity
Date specified and have the terms and conditions
specified herein. The form of this Note as originally issued by the Company,
which governed the terms and conditions hereof prior to the exercise of the
Option to Elect Termination (the "Initial Note Form"), is attached as Annex 1
hereto. Terms used but not defined herein but which are defined in the Initial
Note Form shall have the meanings provided therein.
Interests in this Note (which are sometimes referred to herein where the
context so requires as the "Notes"), and any certificated Notes which may be
issued in exchange herefor pursuant to the terms hereof, are issuable in
denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Notes are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company prior to
maturity.
Interest on this Note will be payable on each monthly Interest Payment Date
to and including the Interest Payment Date (as provided in the Initial Note
Form) applicable to the Election Period relevant to this Note (the "Last Monthly
Interest Payment Date"), and thereafter on the second Wednesday of the third
month and sixth month following the Last Monthly Interest Payment Date, and at
maturity. "Interest Payment Dates" with respect to this Note shall refer to
such dates. The per annum rate of interest payable with respect to this Note
will (on and after such Last Monthly Interest Payment Date) be reset weekly and
will be equal to the Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate (as defined herein), plus
0.10% (ten one-hundredths of one percent). Interest prior to such Last Monthly
Interest Payment Date will accrue at a rate as specified in the Initial Note
Form.
Interest payable on each Interest Payment Date will include interest
accrued from and including the first day of the Interest Period relating to such
Interest Payment Date to and including the last day of such Interest Period.
"Interest Period" shall mean the period beginning on and including October 12,
1993 to but excluding November 10, 1993 and, thereafter, each successive period
beginning on and including the day after the last day of the preceding Interest
Period and ending on but excluding the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.
The per annum rate of interest payable with respect to this Note subsequent
to the applicable Last Monthly Interest Payment Date will be reset as of the
Wednesday of each week at a rate equal to the arithmetic average (mean) of the
Federal Funds Rates (as defined herein) in effect with respect to each calendar
day from and including the second preceding Thursday to and including the next
preceding Wednesday (such period is the "Calculation Period", and such average
of the Federal Funds Rates is the "Weekly Average Federal Funds Rate"), plus
0.10% (ten one-hundredths of one percent). Such average rate will 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 herein, "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
"Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates" or any successor
publication ("H.15(519)") under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)" or, if
not so published by 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Calculation Date
pertaining to
2
the applicable Business Day, the Federal Funds Rate will be the interest rate on
such Business Day 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 Quotations") 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 will 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 rata 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 will 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 shall be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after such
Business Day or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business
Day, or (ii) the Business Day prior to the Interest Payment Date on which such
accrued interest will be payable.
Interest on the Notes will be computed and paid on the basis of the actual
number of days for which interest accrues in each Interest Period divided by
360.
The Calculation Agent will, upon the request of the Holder of any Note,
provide the interest rate then in effect. The Calculation Agent is Xxxxxxx
Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated. All calculations made by the
Calculation Agent in the absence of a determination of manifest error shall be
conclusive for all purposes and binding on the holders of the Notes.
Interest shall be paid on each Interest Payment Date to the Holder of this
Note on the Regular Record Date. The "Regular Record Date" shall be the date 15
calendar days (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. 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; provided, however,
3
that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto at such address as shall
appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, payment
of principal of and interest payable at maturity on this Note shall be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated account maintained
in the United States upon (i) receipt of written notice by the Trustee from the
Holder hereof not less than one Business Day prior to the due date of such
principal payment and (ii) presentation of this Note to the Trustee. The Holder
of not less than $1,000,000 Notes may by written notice to the Trustee (or at
such other address as the Company shall give notice in writing) not less than 15
days prior to an Interest Payment Date, arrange to have the interest payable on
all Notes held by such Holder on such Interest Payment Date, and all subsequent
Interest Payment Dates until written notice to the contrary is given to the
Trustee, made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated
account maintained in the United States.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by and on
behalf of The Chase Manhattan Bank (National Association), 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

hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ,
or registered assigns, (subject only as provided below) the principal sum of
ONE ($ ) on the Maturity Date occurring on October 9,
1996, and to pay interest thereon, as described below, until the principal
hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. The principal amount of the
Note shall be reduced upon any exercise of the Option to Elect Early
Termination, all as provided below.
Interests in this Note (which are sometimes referred to herein where the
context so requires as the "Notes"), and any certificated Notes which may be
issued in exchange herefor pursuant to the terms hereof, are issuable in
denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.
The Notes are not subject to redemption at the option of the Company prior to
maturity.
Interest on this Note will be payable on the second Wednesday of each month
(each an "Interest Payment Date"), commencing in November 1993, and at maturity.
The per annum rate of interest with respect to this Note will be reset monthly
on each Interest Payment Date and will be equal to LIBOR (as defined herein),
plus 0.05% (five one-hundredths of one percent).
Notwithstanding the first paragraph hereof, this Note will mature on the
Interest Payment Date occurring in October 1994 unless the maturity thereof is
automatically extended with respect to all or a part of the principal amount
hereof. During the period beginning on the sixtieth (60th) calendar day
immediately preceding, and ending on the thirty-second (32nd) calendar day
immediately preceding, each Interest Payment Date (each such period being
referred to herein as an "Election Period", and each such Interest Payment Date
being referred to herein as the "Interest Payment Date applicable to such
Election Period"), commencing with the Interest Payment Date occurring in
January 1994, the Holder of this Note will have the option to elect a final
Maturity Date (as defined herein) for this Note (or for any interest herein of
an authorized denomination) which is the Interest Payment Date occurring on the
second Wednesday of the ninth month after the Interest Payment Date applicable
to such Election Period. Any or all of the interest herein as to which such
election has been exercised is referred to herein as an "Exercised Note". If the
Holder of this Note does not so elect, the maturity of this Note shall be
automatically extended to the Interest Payment Date occurring on the second
Wednesday of the tenth month after the Interest Payment Date applicable to such
Election Period. The "Maturity Date" of any Note shall mean the Interest Payment
Date occurring in October 1994 or any later date to which the maturity of such
Note is automatically extended as described in the previous sentence. The
maturity of the Notes will not be so automatically extended to any date after
October 9, 1996.
The Holder of this Note may elect to terminate the automatic extension of
the maturity of this Note or of any interest herein (of an authorized
denomination) by surrendering this Note during any Election Period, commencing
with the Election Period related to the Interest Payment Date occurring in
January 1994, to the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee in The City of New
York (or at such other place as the Company shall notify the Holders of the
Notes, provided that the Company shall at all times maintain an office for the
exchange contemplated below in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York),
with notice to Xxxxxxx Lynch, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, World
Financial Center, North Tower, 10th Floor, New York, New York 10281-1307,
Attention: Medium-Term Notes Desk (telephone (000) 000-0000), and with the form
entitled "Option to Elect Termination" which is appended hereto duly completed.
Such notice must be received by the Trustee by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on
the last day for giving such notice. The date on which such surrender occurs
shall be the "Election Date" with respect to portion of this Note as to which
the automatic extension shall have been terminated. Upon the exercise of an
Option to Elect Termination, the principal amount of this Note subject to such
election shall be endorsed by the Trustee on the Schedule hereto, whereupon the
principal amount hereof shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so
endorsed. The Trustee shall deliver to the Holder in exchange therefor a new
Note (substantially in the form of Annex 1 hereto) imprinted with a legend
indicating (i) that an election to terminate the automatic extension of the
maturity of such Note has been made, (ii) the Election Date and (iii) the
Maturity Date with respect to such new Note. Any Note or Notes issued in
exchange for or upon registration of transfer of any Notes so legended shall
also be legended to the same effect. An election to terminate the automatic
extension of the maturity of this Note (or of any portion thereof, as the case
may be) shall be irrevocable and binding on the Holder and any subsequent Holder
of this Note unless waived by the Company prior to the close of business on the
third Business Day following the Election Period during which the Election Date
occurs. (In the event
2
that the Holder of a Note issued in certificated form, if any, wishes to
terminate the automatic extension of the maturity of a portion of such Note that
is an amount equal to $100,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof, the Holder shall surrender such Note as described above, with the
"Option to Elect Termination" form duly completed, in exchange for (i) a Note in
the principal amount as to which the automatic extension of maturity has been
terminated, legended as described above, and (ii) a Note for the remaining
principal amount as to which the automatic extension of maturity has not been
terminated and which has not been so legended.) All questions as to whether and
when an election to terminate the automatic extension of the maturity of any
Note has been made shall be determined by the Company, whose determination shall
be final and binding.
With respect to any Exercised Note, interest will be payable at such times,
and will be calculated by such method, as is provided in the form of Note
included as Annex 1 hereto.
Interest payable on each Interest Payment Date will include interest
accrued from and including the first day of the Interest Period relating to such
Interest Payment Date to and including the last day of such Interest Period.
"Interest Period" shall mean the period beginning on and including October 12,
1993 to but excluding November 10, 1993 and, thereafter, each successive period
beginning on and including the day after the last day of the preceding Interest
Period and ending on but excluding the next succeeding Interest Payment Date.
This Note will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to LIBOR plus 0.05%
(five one-hundredths of one percent), and such rate shall be reset each Interest
Payment Date other than at maturity (each such date, together with the original
issue date of the Notes, October 12, 1993, being referred to in connection with
Notes other than Exercised Notes as an "Interest Reset Date"). "LIBOR" with
respect to any Interest Determination Date (as defined below) shall equal the
rate which appears on Telerate Page 3750, "British Bankers Association Interest
Settlement Rates", under the column entitled "U.S.D.", which appears as of 11:00
A.M., London time, on the applicable Interest Determination Date, for deposits
(in United States dollars for a period of one month) commencing on the second
day on which dealings in deposits in United States dollars are transacted in the
London interbank market (a "London Banking Day") immediately following such
Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if no such rate appears,
the Calculation Agent shall request the principal London office of four major
banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent to
provide the Calculation Agent with a quotation of their offered rates at
approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on such Interest Determination Date for
deposits (in United States dollars for a period of one month and in a principal
amount equal to an amount that is representative for a single transaction in
such market at such time) commencing on the second London Banking Day
immediately following such Interest Determination Date. If at least two such
quotations are provided, LIBOR for such Interest Determination Date shall equal
the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are
provided, LIBOR for such Interest Determination Date shall equal the arithmetic
mean of the rates quoted by three major banks in The City of New York, as
selected by the Calculation Agent, at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City
time, on such Interest Determination Date for loans to leading European Banks
(in United States dollars for a period of one month and in a principal amount
equal to an amount that is representative for a single
3
transaction in such market at such time) commencing on the second London Banking
Day following such Interest Determination Date; provided, however, that if the
banks selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as
described in this sentence, LIBOR will be LIBOR in effect on such Interest
