Section 2.3 Form, Payment and Appointment. The Senior Notes shall be

of the Company may from time to time designate. Principal of and premium, if
any, and interest on the Senior Notes will be payable, the transfer of such

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.
Every Global Note will provide that interest, if any, payable on any
Interest Payment Date will be paid to the applicable Depositary, for the
purpose of permitting such Depositary to credit the interest received by it
in respect of such Global Note to the accounts of the beneficial owners
thereof.
The Company hereby designates the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York as the place of payment ("Place of Payment") for the Senior Notes, and the

of the Clearing Agency, or to a successor
5
Clearing Agency selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such
successor Clearing Agency.
Section 2.4 Interest.
(a) The Senior Note will bear interest initially at the rate of 6% per
year (the "Coupon Rate") from and including December 21, 2001 through and
including the day immediately preceding the Reset Effective Date and at the
Reset Rate thereafter until the principal thereof is paid or duly made available

immediately preceding the Reset Effective Date and at the Reset Rate thereafter,

to the Person in whose name such Senior Note, or any predecessor Senior Note, is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest
installment.
(b) The interest rate on the Senior Notes will be reset on the Initial
Remarketing Date to the applicable Reset Rate (which Reset Rate will be
effective on and after August 17, 2004) except in the event of a Failed Initial
Remarketing. In the event of a Failed Initial Remarketing, the interest rate on
the Senior Notes will be reset on the Secondary Remarketing Date to the
applicable Reset Rate (which Reset Rate will be effective on and after the
Purchase Contract Settlement Date). On the applicable Reset Announcement Date,
the applicable Reset Spread and the Two-Year Benchmark Treasury or Two and

Purchase Contracts with separate cash on the Business Day immediately preceding
the Purchase Contract Settlement Date.

basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Except as provided
in the following sentence, the amount of interest payable for any period other
than a full quarterly period for which interest is computed, will be computed on
the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such a 90-day period. In the
event that any date on which interest is payable on the Senior Notes is not a
Business Day, then payment of interest payable on such date will be made on the
next succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other
payment in respect of any such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in

6
payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case

Event Redemption Date, by check or wire transfer in immediately available funds
at such place and to such account as may be designated by each such Holder of
Senior Notes, including the Trustee or the Collateral Agent, as the case may be.
If the Trustee holds immediately available funds sufficient to pay the
Redemption Price of the Senior Notes, then, on such Tax Event Redemption Date,
such Senior Notes will cease to be outstanding and interest thereon will cease
to accrue, whether or not such Senior Notes have been received by the Company,
and all other rights of the Holder in respect of the Senior Notes shall
terminate and lapse (other than the right to receive the Redemption Price upon
delivery of such Senior Notes but without interest on such Redemption Price).

subject to the Trustee's receipt of payment from the Company in accordance with

Put Option Exercise Date, and to such account as may be designated. If the

Price of Senior Notes presented for repayment, then, immediately prior to the
close of business on the Put Option Exercise Date, such Senior Notes will cease
to be outstanding and Interest thereon will cease to accrue, whether or not such
Senior Notes have been received by the Company, and all other rights of the
Holder in respect of the Senior Notes, including the Holder's right to require

Authorized Signatory
(FORM OF REVERSE OF SENIOR NOTE)
This Senior Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the
Company (herein sometimes referred to as the "Senior Notes"), issued and to be
issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture dated as of
December 21, 2001 (the "Base Indenture") between the Company and First Union
National Bank, as Trustee (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor
trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture,
dated as of December 21, 2001 (the "First Supplemental Indenture") between the
Company and the Trustee (the Base Indenture as so supplemented, the
"Indenture"), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto
reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights,
obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and
the Holders of the Senior Notes. By the terms of the Indenture, the Securities
are issuable in
12
series that may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in
other respects as provided in the Indenture. This series of Securities is
limited in aggregate principal amount as specified in said First Supplemental
Indenture.
If a Tax Event shall occur and be continuing, the Company may, at its
option, redeem the Senior Notes in whole (but not in part) at any time at a
price per Senior Note equal to the Redemption Price. The Redemption Price shall
be paid to each Holder of the Senior Notes by the Company, no later than 12:00
noon, New York City time, on the Tax Event Redemption Date, by check or wire
transfer in immediately available funds, at such place and to such account as
may be designated by each such Holder.
The Senior Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.
If a Failed Secondary Remarketing (as described in Section 5.3 of the
Purchase Contract Agreement and incorporated herein by reference) has
occurred, each holder of Senior Notes who holds such Notes on the day
immediately following the Purchase Contract Settlement Date shall have the
right (the "Put Option") to put such Senior Notes to the Company on December
31, 2004 (the "Put Option Exercise Date"), upon at least three Business Days
prior notice), at a repayment price equal to the principal amount of this
Senior Note plus an amount equal to the accrued and unpaid interest thereon
to the date of payment (the "Note Repayment Price").
In order for the Senior Notes to be so repurchased, the Trustee must
receive, on or prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City Time on the third Business Day
immediately preceding the Put Option Exercise Date, at its Corporate Trust
Office, or at an office or agency maintained by the Company in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City of New York as contemplated by Section 2.3 of the First
Supplemental Indenture, the Senior Notes to be repurchased with the form
entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" on the reverse of or otherwise accompanying
such Senior Notes duly completed. Any such notice received by the Trustee shall
be irrevocable. All questions as to the validity, eligibility (including time of
receipt) and acceptance of the Senior Notes for repayment shall be determined by
the Company, whose determination shall be final and binding. The payment of the
Note Repayment Price in respect of such Senior Notes shall be made no later than
12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Put Option Exercise Date.
In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall have
occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Senior Notes may be
declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and payable (or, in
certain circumstances shall ipso facto become due and payable), in the manner,
with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting, with certain exceptions
therein provided, the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders
of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities of each series affected to execute supplemental indentures for the
purpose of, among other things, adding any provisions to or changing or
eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental
indenture or of modifying the rights of the Holders of the Securities. The
Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities of any series at the time
Outstanding, on behalf of all of the Holders of all Securities of such series,
13
to waive a Default or Event of Default with respect to such series and its
consequences, except a Default or Event of Default in the payment of the
principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any of the Securities of such
series or in respect of a covenant or other provision which, under the terms of
the Indenture, cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder
of each Outstanding Security of such series affected. Any such consent or waiver
by the registered Holder of this Senior Note (unless revoked as provided in the
Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Senior Note and of any Senior Note issued in exchange for or in
place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or otherwise), irrespective of
whether or not any notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Senior
Note.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Senior Note
or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest on this Senior Note at the time and place and at the rate and in the
money herein prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
set forth, this Senior Note is transferable by the registered Holder hereof on
the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this Senior Note for
registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company maintained for
such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, accompanied by a
written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Company or the Trustee duly executed by the registered Holder hereof or his
attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Senior Notes
of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount will be
issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service charge will be
made for any such transfer, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in
relation thereto.
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this Senior Note,
the Company, the Trustee, any Paying Agent and the Security Registrar may deem
and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner hereof (whether or
not this Senior Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notice of
ownership or writing hereon made by anyone other than the Security Registrar)
for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal hereof
and premium, if any, and interest due hereon and for all other purposes, and
neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Paying Agent nor any Security
Registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or the
interest on this Senior Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in
respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture, against any
incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, past, present or future, as
such, of the Company or of any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by
virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any
assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance

Portfolio Purchase Price, Senior Notes tendered or deemed tendered for
purchase.
(e) If there are no Income PRIDES outstanding and none of the Holders
elect to have Senior Notes held by them remarketed, the Reset Rate shall be the
rate determined by the Reset Agent, subject to the terms of the Remarketing
Agreement, as the rate that would have been established had a remarketing been
held on the Initial Remarketing Date.
(f) If the Remarketing Agent has determined that it will be able to
remarket all Senior Notes tendered or deemed tendered prior to 4:00 P.M., New

the Remarketing Agent is unable to remarket all Senior Notes tendered or deemed
tendered for purchase or if the Initial Remarketing shall not have occurred

such purchaser is to purchase and (iii) each purchaser to give instructions to
its Clearing Agency Participant to pay the purchase price on August 17, 2004 in
same day funds against delivery of the Senior Notes purchased through the
facilities of the Clearing Agency.

17, 2004, the transactions described above with respect to each Senior Note
tendered for purchase and sold in the Initial Remarketing shall be executed
through the Clearing Agency, and the accounts of the respective Clearing Agency
Participants shall be debited and credited and such Senior Notes delivered by
book entry as necessary to effect purchases and sales of such Senior Notes. The
Clearing Agency shall make payment in accordance with its normal procedures.
(j) If any Holder selling Senior Notes in the Initial Remarketing fails to
deliver such Senior Notes, the Clearing Agency Participant of such selling
Holder and of any other Person that was to have purchased Senior Notes in the
