[Reverse of Note]

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of June 24, 2005, as supplemented by a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 21, 2005 (as so supplemented and as it may from time to time be further supplemented or amended by one or more indentures supplemental thereto, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors described therein and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited in aggregate principal amount to $1,250,000,000; provided that the Company may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the Holders of Notes, create and issue further Notes of this series (the “Additional Notes”) having the same terms and ranking equally and ratably with the Notes in all respects, or in all respects except for the payment of interest accruing prior to the Issue Date or except for the first payment of interest following the Issue Date of such Additional Notes. Any Additional Notes will be consolidated and form a single series with the Notes and shall have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the Notes.

The Notes of this series are subject to redemption upon not less than 30 days’ but no more than 60 days’ notice by mail, at any time, as a whole or in part, at the election of the Company, at a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of (1) 100 percent of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (exclusive of interest accrued to that Redemption Date) discounted to the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a rate equal to the Treasury Yield plus 25 basis points, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed to that Redemption Date; provided that installments of interest on the Notes which are then due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to the relevant Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of those Notes, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Date. If less than all the Notes are to be redeemed at the Company’s option, the Trustee shall select, in such manner as it shall deem reasonable and fair, the Notes to be redeemed in whole or in part. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.

“Treasury Yield” means, with respect to the Notes being redeemed, the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields reported as of the second business day prior to the Redemption Date, on (a) the Bloomberg Financial Markets News screen PX1 or the equivalent screen provided by Bloomberg Financial Markets News, or (b) if such on-line market data is not at that time provided by Bloomberg Financial Markets News, on the display designated as “Page 500” on the Moneyline Telerate service (or such other display as may replace Page 500 on the Moneyline Telerate service), in any case for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the remaining term of the Notes of this series as of the Redemption Date, or (ii) if such yields are not reported at that time or the yields reported as of that time are not ascertainable (including

by way of interpolation), the Treasury Constant Maturity Series yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields have been so reported at that time, in Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication) for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity equal to the remaining term of the Notes of this series as of such Redemption Date. Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by (x) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in accordance with accepted financial practices and (y) interpolating linearly between (1) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with a maturity closest to and greater than the remaining term of the Notes of this series and (2) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with a maturity closest to and less than the remaining term of the Notes of this series.

Upon the occurrence of a Rating Change (as defined herein), this Note will bear interest at a rate equal to the rate that would be applicable without any adjustment plus the applicable interest rate adjustment (each an “Interest Rate Adjustment”), if any, set forth below. Each Interest Rate Adjustment will be effective on the next Business Day after the Rating Change has occurred. Thereafter, the Interest Rate Adjustment will remain in effect until the next Rating Change that results in a different Interest Rate Adjustment as set forth below. That portion of interest accruing as a result of an Interest Rate Adjustment is referred to in this Note as “Adjustment Interest.” The Company will give prompt notice to the Trustee of any Rating Change and any related Interest Rate Adjustment.

If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company, each Guarantor and the Trustee to enter into from time to time indentures supplemental to the Indenture for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating

any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Securities (including the Holders of the Notes), in each case, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series at the time outstanding affected by such supplemental indenture (voting as a class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of each series at the time outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this 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 such Note.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any action or proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing default with respect to the Notes of this series, and the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes of this series at the time outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute such action or proceedings in its own name as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any or all series affected (voting as a single class) at the time outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and the Trustee shall have failed to institute any such action or proceeding for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Indenture or this Note, the right of any Holder of this Note to receive payment of the principal of, and any premium and interest on, this Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in this Note, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such respective dates, shall not be impaired or affected without the consent of such Holder.

The Notes of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith. Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Company, 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 be overdue, and none of the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
