The Notes are not superior in right of payment to, and rank pari passu with, the securities issued under the Subordinated Indenture.

Section 2.02 Payment Over of Proceeds of Notes.

In the event (a) of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in respect of the Corporation or a substantial part of its property, or of any proceedings for liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Corporation, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (b) subject to the provisions of Section 2.03, that (i) a default shall have occurred with respect to the payment of principal of or interest on or other monetary amounts due and payable on any Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, or (ii) there shall have occurred a default (other than a default in the payment of principal or interest or other monetary amounts due and payable) in respect of any Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, as defined therein or in the instrument under which the same is outstanding, permitting the holder or holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof (with notice or lapse of time, or both), and such default shall have continued beyond the period of grace, if any, in respect thereof, and, in the cases of subclauses (i) and (ii) of this clause (b), such default shall not have been cured or waived or shall not have ceased to exist, or (c) that the principal of and accrued interest on the Notes shall have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 801 of the Original Indenture and such declaration shall not have been rescinded and annulled as provided in Section 802 of the Original Indenture, then:


	(1) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation shall first be entitled to receive payment of the full amount due thereon, or provision shall be made for such payment in money or money’s worth, before the Holders of any of the Notes are entitled to receive a payment on account of the principal or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, including, without limitation, any payments made pursuant to Articles Four and Five of the Original Indenture;

	(2) any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Corporation of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which any Holder or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Article, shall be paid or delivered by the Person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holders of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or to the Trustee under the Indenture; and

	(3) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Corporation of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, in respect of principal or interest on the Notes or in connection with any repurchase by the Corporation of the Notes, shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder before all Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation is paid in full, or provision is made for such payment in money or money’s worth, such payment or distribution in respect of principal or interest on the Notes or in connection with any repurchase by the Corporation of the Notes shall be paid over to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation may have been issued, ratably as aforesaid, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the 123rd day following the date of deposit of cash or Eligible Obligations pursuant to Section 701 or 702 of the Original Indenture (provided all conditions set out in such Section shall have been satisfied), the funds so deposited and any interest thereon will not be subject to any rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation including, without limitation, those arising under this Article; provided that no event described in clauses (e) and (f) of Section 801 of the Original Indenture with respect to the Corporation has occurred during such 123-day period.

Nothing in Section 2.01 or in this Section 2.02 shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 907 of the Original Indenture.

Section 2.04 Subrogation.

Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation shall not be deemed to have been paid in full unless the holders thereof shall have received cash (or securities or other property satisfactory to such holders) in full payment of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation then outstanding. Upon the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, the rights of the Holders of the Notes shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation to receive any further payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Corporation applicable to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation until all amounts owing on the Notes shall be paid in full; and such payments or distributions of cash, property or securities received by the Holders of the Notes, by reason of such subrogation, which otherwise would be paid or distributed to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation shall, as between the Corporation, its creditors other than the holders of Senior

Indebtedness of the Corporation, and the Holders, be deemed to be a payment by the Corporation to or on account of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, it being understood that the provisions of this Article are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, on the other hand.

Section 2.05 Obligation of the Corporation Unconditional.

Nothing contained in this Article or elsewhere in the Indenture or in the Notes is intended to or shall impair, as among the Corporation, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation and the Holders, the obligation of the Corporation, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders the principal and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Corporation other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under the Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation in respect of cash, property or securities of the Corporation received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Corporation referred to in this Article, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation and other indebtedness of the Corporation, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon, and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article.

The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation (or a representative of such holder or a trustee under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation may have been issued) to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation or such representative or trustee on behalf of such holder. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Article, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the right of such Person under this Article, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment or distribution.

Section 2.06 Priority of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation Upon Maturity.

Upon the maturity of the principal of any Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all matured principal of Senior Indebtedness of the

Corporation and interest and premium, if any, thereon shall first be paid in full before any payment of principal or interest, if any, is made upon the Notes or before any Notes can be acquired by the Corporation.

Section 2.07 Trustee as Holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation.

The Trustee shall be entitled to all rights set forth in this Article with respect to any Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation. Nothing in this Article shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

Section 2.08 Notice to Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article or any other provision of the Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Corporation, from a Holder or from a holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation or from any representative or representatives of such holder or any trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation may have been issued and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled, subject to Section 901 of the Original Indenture, in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that, if prior to the fifth Business Day preceding the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys may become payable for any purpose, or in the event of the execution of an instrument pursuant to Section 701 or 702 of the Original Indenture acknowledging that Notes or portions thereof are deemed to have been paid for all purposes of the Indenture, acknowledging that the entire indebtedness of the Corporation in respect thereof has been satisfied and discharged or acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, then if prior to the second Business Day preceding the date of such execution, the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such moneys the notice provided for in this Section, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee may, in its discretion, receive such moneys and/or apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, which may be received by it on or after such date; provided, however, that no such application shall affect the obligations under this Article of the persons receiving such moneys from the Trustee.

Section 2.09 Modification, Extension, etc. of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation.

The holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation may, without affecting in any manner the subordination of the payment of the principal and interest, if any, on the Notes, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion, agree with the Corporation to change the manner, place or terms of payment, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, any Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, or amend or supplement any instrument pursuant to which any Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation is issued, or exercise or refrain from exercising any other of their rights under the Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder, all without notice to or assent from the Holders or the Trustee.

Section 2.10 Trustee Has No Fiduciary Duty to Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation.

With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and objectives as are specifically set forth in the Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation shall be read into the Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation, and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or deliver to the Holders or the Corporation or any other Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation shall be entitled by virtue of this Article or otherwise.

Section 2.11 Paying Agents Other Than the Trustee.

In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Corporation and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article shall in such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Article in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that Sections 2.07, 2.08 and 2.10 shall not apply to the Corporation if it acts as Paying Agent.

Section 2.12 Rights of Holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation Not Impaired.

No right of any present or future holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Corporation or by any noncompliance by the Corporation with the terms, provisions and covenants of the Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

Section 2.13 Effect of Subordination Provisions; Termination.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, other than as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence, all the provisions of the Indenture shall be subject to the provisions of this Article, so far as the same may be applicable thereto.

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Article Two shall be of no further effect, and the Notes shall no longer be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment of Senior Indebtedness of the Corporation on or after May 18, 2004.

ARTICLE THREE

FORM OF GUARANTEE

The Guarantee to be endorsed on the Notes shall be in substantially the form set forth below:

[FORM OF GUARANTEE]

PPL Corporation (formerly called PP&L Resources, Inc.), a corporation organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (the “Guarantor”, which term includes any successor under the Indenture, dated as of November 1, 1997 (the “Original Indenture”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank (formerly known as the Chase Manhattan Bank), as Trustee, as amended and supplemented, including the Supplemental Indenture Number 5 dated , 2003 (the “Indenture”), which is referred to in the Note upon which this Guarantee is endorsed), for value received, hereby unconditionally guarantees to the Holder of the Note upon which this Guarantee is endorsed, the due and punctual payment of the principal and interest, if any, on such Note when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, or otherwise, in accordance with the terms of such Note and of the Indenture. In case of the failure of PPL Capital Funding, Inc. (formerly called PP&L Capital Funding, Inc.), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Corporation”, which term includes any successor under the Indenture), punctually to make any such payment, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the Stated Maturity or by declaration of acceleration, or otherwise, and as if such payment were made by the Corporation.

From , 2003 until May 18, 2004, the Guarantee will be the Guarantor’s unsecured obligation and will rank without preference or priority equally with all of the Guarantor’s existing and future unsecured and subordinated indebtedness, subordinate and junior in right of payment to all of the Guarantor’s Senior Indebtedness.

On and after May 18, 2004, the Guarantee will become the Guarantor’s unsecured obligation and will rank without preference or priority equally with all of the Guarantor’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness (including ranking equally with all prior unsubordinated Securities issued pursuant to the Original Indenture), senior in right of payment to all of the Guarantor’s subordinated indebtedness.

The Guarantor hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and shall be unaffected by, any invalidity, irregularity or unenforceability of such Note or the Indenture, any failure to enforce the provisions of such Note or the Indenture, or any waiver, modification or indulgence granted to the Corporation with respect thereto, by the Holder of such Note or the Trustee or any other circumstance which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, modification or indulgence shall, without the consent of the Guarantor, increase the principal amount of such Note, or increase the interest rate thereon or change the Stated Maturity thereof.

The Guarantor hereby waives the benefits of diligence, presentment, demand for payment, any requirement that the Trustee or the Holder of such Note exhaust any right or take any action against the Corporation or any other Person, filing of claims with a court in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Corporation, any right to require a proceeding first against the Corporation, protest or notice with respect to such Note or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever, and covenants that this Guarantee will not be discharged in respect of such Note except by complete performance of the obligations contained in such Note and in this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall constitute a guaranty of payment and not of collection. The Guarantor hereby agrees that, in the event of a default in payment of principal or interest, if any, on such Note, whether at its Stated Maturity, by declaration of acceleration, or otherwise, legal proceedings may be instituted by the Trustee on behalf of, or by, the Holder of such Note, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, directly against the Guarantor to enforce this Guarantee without first proceeding against the Corporation.

The obligations of the Guarantor hereunder with respect to such Note shall be continuing and irrevocable until the date upon which the entire principal and interest, if any, on such Note has been, or has been deemed pursuant to the provisions of Article Seven of the Original Indenture to have been, paid in full or otherwise discharged.

The Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Holder of such Note upon which this Guarantee is endorsed against the Corporation in respect of any amounts paid by the Guarantor on account of such Note pursuant to the provisions of this Guarantee or the Indenture; provided, however, that the Guarantor shall not be entitled to enforce or to receive any payments arising out of, or based upon, such right of subrogation until the principal and interest, if any, on all Notes issued under the Indenture shall have been paid in full.

This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue notwithstanding any petition filed by or against the Corporation for liquidation or reorganization, the Corporation becoming insolvent or making an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a receiver or trustee being appointed for all or any significant part of the Corporation’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be effective or reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of the Note upon which this Guarantee is endorsed, is, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Holder of such Note, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned on such Note, such Note shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed paid only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

From the Original Issue Date to, but excluding, May 18, 2004, the following provisions shall apply:

1. The Guarantor, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each Holder of the Notes, by its acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment under the Guarantee of the principal and interest, if any, on each and all of the Notes is hereby expressly subordinated and subject to the extent and in the manner set forth herein, in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor.

2. Each Holder of the Notes, by its acceptance thereof, authorizes and directs the Trustee on its behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination as provided in this Guarantee, and appoints the Trustee its attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

3. In the event (a) of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceedings in respect of the Guarantor or a substantial part of its property, or of any proceedings for liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Guarantor, whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or (b) subject to the provisions of paragraph 6 below, that (i) a default shall have occurred with respect to the payment of principal or interest on or other monetary amounts due and payable on any Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, or (ii) there shall have occurred a default (other than a default in the payment of principal or interest or other monetary amounts due and payable) in respect of any Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, as defined therein or in the instrument under which the same is outstanding, permitting the holder or holders thereof to accelerate the maturity thereof (with notice or lapse of time, or both), and such default shall have continued beyond the period of grace, if any, in respect thereof, and, in the cases of subclauses (i) and (ii) of this clause (b), such default shall not have been cured or waived or shall not have ceased to exist, or (c) that the principal and accrued interest on the Notes shall have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 801 of the Original Indenture and such declaration shall not have been rescinded and annulled as provided in Section 802 in the Original Indenture, then:

(1) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor shall first be entitled to receive payment of the full amount due thereon, or provision shall be made for such payment in money or money’s worth, before the Holders of any of the Notes are entitled to receive a payment on account of the Guarantee of the principal or interest on the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes, including, without limitation, any payments made pursuant to Articles Four and Five of the Original Indenture;

(2) any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which any Holder or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Guarantee, shall be paid or delivered by the Person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or otherwise, directly to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor may have been issued, ratably according to the aggregate amounts remaining unpaid on account of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor held or represented by each, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, before any payment or distribution is made to the Holders of the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes or to the Trustee under the Guarantee and the Indenture; and


	(3) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment by, or distribution of assets of, the Guarantor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property

or securities, in respect of principal or interest on the Notes or in connection with any repurchase by the Guarantor of the Notes, shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder before all Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor is paid in full, or provision is made for such payment in money or money’s worth, such payment or distribution in respect of principal or interest on the Notes or in connection with any repurchase by the Guarantor of the Notes shall be paid over to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor or their representative or representatives or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor may have been issued, ratably as aforesaid, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor remaining unpaid until all such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor shall have been paid in full, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution (or provision therefor) to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor.

4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the 123rd day following the date of deposit of cash or Eligible Obligations pursuant to Section 701 or 702 of the Original Indenture (provided all conditions set out in such Section shall have been satisfied), the funds so deposited and any interest thereon will not be subject to any rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor including, without limitation, those arising under this Guarantee; provided that no event described in clauses (e) and (f) of Section 801 of the Original Indenture with respect to the Guarantor has occurred during such 123-day period.

5. For purposes of this Guarantee only, the words “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Guarantor as reorganized or readjusted, or securities of the Guarantor or any other corporation provided for by a plan or reorganization or readjustment which are subordinate in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor which may at the time be outstanding to the same extent as, or to a greater extent than, the Guarantee of the Notes are so subordinated as provided in this Guarantee. The consolidation of the Guarantor with, or the merger of the Guarantor into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Guarantor following the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms and conditions provided for in Article Eleven of the Original Indenture shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization for the purposes of paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer, comply with the conditions stated in Article Eleven of the Original Indenture. Nothing in paragraphs 1 and 2 above or in paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 above shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 907 in the Original Indenture.

6. Any failure by the Guarantor to make any payment on or perform any other obligation in respect of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, other than any indebtedness incurred by the Guarantor or assumed or guaranteed, directly or indirectly, by the Guarantor for money borrowed (or any deferral, renewal, extension or refunding thereof) or any other obligation as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall have been waived by the Guarantor in the instrument or instruments by which the Guarantor incurred, assumed, guaranteed or otherwise created such indebtedness or obligation, shall not be deemed a default under clause (b) of paragraph 3 above if (i) the Guarantor shall be disputing its obligation to make such payment or perform such obligation and (ii) either (A) no final judgment relating to such dispute shall have been issued

against the Guarantor which is in full force and effect and is not subject to further review, including a judgment that has become final by reason of the expiration of the time within which a party may seek further appeal or review, or (B) in the event that a judgment that is subject to further review or appeal has been issued, the Guarantor shall in good faith be prosecuting an appeal or other proceeding for review and a stay or execution shall have been obtained pending such appeal or review.

7. Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor shall not be deemed to have been paid in full unless the holders thereof shall have received cash (or securities or other property satisfactory to such holders) in full payment of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor then outstanding. Upon the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, the rights of the Holders of the Notes shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor to receive any further payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of the Guarantor applicable to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor until all amounts owing on the Notes shall be paid in full; and such payments or distributions of cash, property or securities received by the Holders of the Notes, by reason of such subrogation, which otherwise would be paid or distributed to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor shall, as between the Guarantor, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, and the Holders, be deemed to be a payment by the Guarantor to or on account of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, it being understood that the provisions of this Guarantee are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Holders, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, on the other hand.

8. Nothing contained in this Guarantee or elsewhere in the Indenture or in the Guarantee is intended to or shall impair, as among the Guarantor, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor and the Holders, the obligation of the Guarantor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Holders, pursuant to the terms of the Guarantee, the principal and interest on the Notes as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the Holders and creditors of the Guarantor other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, nor shall anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or any Holder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon default under the Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Guarantee of the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor in respect of cash, property or securities of the Guarantor received upon the exercise of any such remedy.

9. Upon any payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Guarantor referred to in this Guarantee, the Trustee and the Holders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor and other indebtedness of the Guarantor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon, and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Guarantee.

10. The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor (or a representative of such holder or a trustee under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor may have been issued) to establish

that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor or such representative or trustee on behalf of such holder. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this Guarantee, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the right of such Person under this Guarantee, and, if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such payment or distribution.

11. Upon the maturity of the principal of any Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor by lapse of time, acceleration or otherwise, all matured principal of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor and interest, if any, thereon shall first be paid in full before any payment of principal or interest, if any, is made upon the Notes under the Guarantee.

12. The Trustee shall be entitled to all rights set forth in this Guarantee with respect to any Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor at any time held by it, to the same extent as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor. Nothing in this Guarantee shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such holder.

13. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Guarantee or any other provision of the Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts which would prohibit the making of any payment of moneys to or by the Trustee unless and until the Trustee shall have received written notice thereof from the Guarantor, from a Holder or from a holder of any Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor or from any representative or representatives of such holder or any trustee or trustees under any indenture under which any instruments evidencing any such Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor may have been issued and, prior to the receipt of any such written notice, the Trustee shall be entitled, subject to Section 901 of the Original Indenture, in all respects to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that, if prior to the fifth Business Day preceding the date upon which by the terms hereof any such moneys may become payable for any purpose, or in the event of the execution of an instrument pursuant to Section 701 or 702 of the Original Indenture acknowledging that Notes or portions thereof are deemed to have been paid for all purposes of the Indenture, acknowledging that the entire indebtedness of the Corporation in respect thereof has been satisfied and discharged or acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture, then if prior to the second Business Day preceding the date of such execution, the Trustee shall not have received with respect to such moneys the notice provided for in this Section, then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee may, in its discretion, receive such moneys and/or apply the same to the purpose for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary, which may be received by it on or after such date; provided, however, that no such application shall affect the obligations under this Guarantee of the Persons receiving such moneys from the Trustee.

14. The holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor may, without affecting in any manner the subordination of the payment of the principal and interest, if any, on the Notes under the Guarantee, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discretion, agree with the

Guarantor to change the manner, place or terms of payment, change or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, any Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, or amend or supplement any instrument pursuant to which any Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor is issued, or exercise or refrain from exercising any other of their rights under the Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder, all without notice to or assent from the Holders or the Trustee.

15. With respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and objectives as are specifically set forth in the Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor shall be read into the Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, and shall not be liable to any such holders if it shall mistakenly pay over or deliver to the Holders or the Guarantor or any other Person, money or assets to which any holders of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor shall be entitled by virtue of this Guarantee or otherwise.

16. In case at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Guarantor and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Guarantee shall in such case (unless the context shall otherwise require) be construed as extending to and including such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named in this Guarantee in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, however, that paragraphs 12, 13 and 15 above shall not apply to the Guarantor if it acts as Paying Agent.

17. No right of any present or future holder of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor to enforce the subordination herein shall at any time or in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Guarantor or by any noncompliance by the Guarantor with the terms, provisions and covenants of the Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

18. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, other than as provided in the immediately succeeding paragraph, all the provisions of the Indenture shall be subject to the provisions of this Guarantee, so far as the same may be applicable thereto.

19. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the provisions of this Guarantee shall be of no further effect, and the Guarantee shall no longer be subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment of Senior Indebtedness of the Guarantor, if the Guarantor shall have delivered to the Trustee a notice to such effect. Any such notice delivered by the Guarantor shall not be deemed to be a supplemental indenture for purposes of Article Twelve of the Original Indenture.

This Guarantee is not superior in right of payment to, and ranks pari passu with, the guarantees of the securities issued under the Subordinated Indenture.

This Guarantee shall not be valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication of the Note upon which this Guarantee is endorsed shall have been manually executed by or on behalf of the Trustee under the Indenture.

All terms used in this Guarantee which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in such Indenture.

This Guarantee shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantor has caused this Guarantee to be executed as of the date first written above.

ARTICLE FOUR

REMARKETING

Section 4.01 Remarketing; Payment of Purchase Price

(a) The Corporation will notify, not later than seven nor more than 15 calendar days prior to the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Holders of Notes of the remarketing to take place on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, and, if necessary, on the fourth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date and, if necessary, on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (and, if such Notes are held in global form by DTC, the Corporation will cause DTC to notify its participants).

(b) The Notes of holders of New PEPS Unit who have not notified the Purchase Contract Agent of their intention to effect a Cash Settlement or have failed to pay the Purchase Price to the Securities Intermediary will be sold by the Remarketing Agent (the “Remarketing”) on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, and, if necessary, on the fourth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date and, if necessary, on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. The Purchase Contract Agent shall notify, by noon, New York City time, on the sixth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Remarketing Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Trustee and the Guarantor of the aggregate principal amount of Notes that are part of New PEPS Units to be remarketed. Concurrently, the Collateral Agent, pursuant to the terms of the Pledge Agreement, will present for remarketing

such Notes to the Remarketing Agent. Upon receipt of such notice from the Purchase Contract Agent and such Notes from the Collateral Agent, the Remarketing Agent will use its reasonable efforts to remarket the Remarketed Notes, at a price of approximately 100.5% (but not less than 100%) of the aggregate principal amount of such Remarketed Notes, on the fifth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date and, if the remarketing on such date fails, on the fourth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date and, if the remarketing on such date fails, on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. If the Remarketing Agent is able to remarket the Remarketed Notes at a price equal to or greater than 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Remarketed Notes (a “Successful Remarketing”), the Remarketing Agent will remit the entire amount of the proceeds derived from the Successful Remarketing of the Notes that were components of New PEPS Units to the Collateral Agent; provided, however, that the Remarketing Agent may deduct as the remarketing fee (“Remarketing Fee”), an amount not exceeding 25 basis points (0.25%) of the aggregate principal amount of the Remarketed Notes from any amount of the proceeds of a Successful Remarketing in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the Remarketed Notes. The portion of the proceeds equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Remarketed Notes that were components of New PEPS Units will automatically be applied by the Collateral Agent, in accordance with the Pledge Agreement, to satisfy in full such New PEPS Units Holders’ obligations to pay the Purchase Price for the common stock under the related Purchase Contracts on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date. Any proceeds in excess of those required to pay the Purchase Price and the Remarketing Fee will be remitted to the Purchase Contract Agent for payment to the holders of the related New PEPS Units. Holders of the New PEPS Units whose Notes are so remarketed will not otherwise be responsible for the payment of any Remarketing Fee in connection therewith. If, (i) in spite of using its reasonable efforts, the Remarketing Agent cannot remarket the Remarketed Notes (other than to the Guarantor), of such holders of New PEPS Units at a price not less than 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Remarketed Notes on or before the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date or (ii) the remarketing has not occurred because a condition precedent to the remarketing has not been fulfilled, the remarketing will be deemed to have failed (a “Failed Final Remarketing”) and in accordance with the terms of the Pledge Agreement the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Guarantor will exercise its rights as a secured party with respect to such Notes that are components of New PEPS Units including those actions specified in paragraph (d) below.

(c) Pursuant to the Remarketing Agreement and subject to the terms of the Supplemental Remarketing Agreement, on or prior to the ninth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Holders of Notes that are not pledged pursuant to the Pledge Agreement (“Separate Notes”) may elect to have their Separate Notes remarketed by delivering their Separate Notes, together with a notice of such election, substantially in the form of Exhibit F to the Pledge Agreement, to the Custodial Agent. The Custodial Agent shall hold such Separate Notes in an account separate from the Collateral Account. A Holder of Separate Notes electing to have its Separate Notes remarketed will also have the right to withdraw such election by written notice to the Custodial Agent, substantially in the form of Exhibit G to the Pledge Agreement, on or prior to the seventh Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, upon receipt of which notice the Custodial Agent shall return such Separate Notes to such Holder. On the sixth Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, the Custodial Agent shall notify the Remarketing Agent and the

Corporation of the aggregate principal amount of the Separate Notes to be remarketed and will deliver to the Remarketing Agent for remarketing all Separate Notes delivered to the Custodial Agent pursuant to Section 5.7(c) of the Pledge Agreement and not withdrawn pursuant to the terms in Section 5.7(c) of the Pledge Agreement prior to such date. After deducting the Remarketing Fee to the extent permitted under the terms of the Remarketing Agreement, the Remarketing Agent will remit to the Custodial Agent the remaining portion of the proceeds derived from a Successful Remarketing of the Separate Notes for the benefit of such Holders. In the event of a Failed Final Remarketing, the Remarketing Agent will promptly return such Separate Notes to the Custodial Agent for redelivery to such Holders.

(d) With respect to Notes that are components of New PEPS Units and which are subject to a Failed Final Remarketing, the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Corporation reserves all of its rights as a secured party with respect thereto and, subject to applicable law, may, among other things, (i) retain the Notes or (ii) sell the Notes in one or more public or private sales, each in full satisfaction of the holders of New PEPS Units obligation’s under the Purchase Contracts.

(e) If in connection with the Remarketing, it shall not be advisable, in the view of counsel (which need not be an opinion) for each of the Remarketing Agent and the Guarantor, under applicable law, regulations or interpretations in effect as of the fifth, the fourth or the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, as the case may be, to register the offer and sale by the Remarketing Agent of the Notes under the Securities Act of 1933 as otherwise contemplated by Section 5 of the Remarketing Agreement or to deliver a Prospectus in connection with the Remarketing, the Guarantor will:

(i) use its reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all action and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper and advisable to permit and effectuate the offer and sale of the Notes in connection with the Remarketing hereunder without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to an exemption therefrom, if available, including the exemption afforded by Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933 by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and

(ii) if requested by the Remarketing Agent, furnish a current preliminary remarketing memorandum and a current final remarketing memorandum (in such quantities as the Remarketing Agent may reasonably request) to be used by the Remarketing Agent in the Remarketing hereunder by a date that is not later than fifteen Business Days prior to the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (or such earlier date as the Remarketing Agent may reasonably request). The Guarantor shall pay all expenses relating thereto.

Section 4.02 Failed Final Remarketing.

(a) If a Failed Final Remarketing occurs Holders of Notes that are not part of a New PEPS Unit will retain possession of their Notes.

(b) Holders of Notes that are not pledged to the Corporation and remain outstanding after a Failed Final Remarketing will have the right to put their Notes in whole or in part to the

Corporation for an amount equal to the principal amount of their Notes being put, plus accrued and unpaid interest, on the Purchase Contract Settlement Date (the “Put Exercise Date”), by delivering to the Trustee prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on or prior to the second Business Day before the Put Exercise Date a Put Notice substantially in the form contained in the form of Note attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(c) In addition to the events listed as Events of Default in Section 801 of the Original Indenture, it shall be an additional Event of Default with respect to the Notes, if the Corporation defaults in the payment of an amount equal to the principal amount of, plus accrued and unpaid interest on, any Note following the exercise by the Holder of such Note of the put right established pursuant to this Section.

(d) If there is no Successful Remarketing on May 11, 2004, the Guarantor will cause a notice of the failure of Remarketing of the Notes to be published before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on May 12, 2004 and another Remarketing will be attempted on that day. If there has not been a Successful Remarketing on May 12, 2004, the Guarantor will cause a notice of the failure of Remarketing of the Notes to be published before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on May 13, 2004 and another Remarketing will be attempted on that day. If there has not been a Successful Remarketing on May 13, 2004, the Guarantor will cause a notice of the failure of Remarketing of the Notes to be published before 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on May 14, 2004. Notices to be published under this paragraph will be validly published by making a timely release to any appropriate news agency, including Bloomberg Business News and the Dow Xxxxx News Service, or by publication in a daily newspaper in the English language of general circulation in The City of New York, which is expected to be The Wall Street Journal.

This Note will bear interest (i) at the rate of

7.29% per year (the “Coupon Rate”) from August 18, 2003 through and including the day immediately preceding May 18, 2004 and (ii)(A) in the case of a Successful Remarketing, at the Reset Rate on and after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date and (B) in the case of a Failed Final Remarketing, at the Coupon Rate on and after the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, until the principal thereof is paid or duly made available for payment. Interest will be payable, initially, quarterly in arrears on November 18, 2003, February 18, 2004 and May 18, 2004 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”) to the Person in whose name this Note, or any Predecessor Security, is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest installment; provided, however, that following the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on May 18 and November 18 of each year, commencing November 18, 2004, and such dates shall then be the “Interest Payment Dates.”

The amount of interest payable on this Note for any period will be computed (1) for any full quarterly or semi-annual period, as applicable, on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and (2) for any period shorter than a full quarterly or semi-annual period, as applicable, 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 date on which interest is payable on the Notes is not a Business Day, then payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any delay). The interest installment 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 installment which shall be, (1) with respect to any Interest Payment Date for the Notes when represented by a Global Note, the Business Day immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date and (2) with respect to any Interest Payment Date for the Notes when held in certificated form, the 15^th day (whether or not a Business Day) prior to such Interest Payment Date. Any such interest installment not punctually paid or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holders at the close of business on such Regular Record Date and may be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date to be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, notice whereof shall be given to the Holders of the Notes not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes shall be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. The principal and the interest on this Note shall be payable at the office or agency of the Corporation maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in any coin or currency of the United States of America that 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 Corporation (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or (ii) by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in writing to the Trustee at least sixteen (16) days prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto.

From the , 2003 until May 18, 2004, the Notes will be the Corporation’s direct, unsecured obligations and will rank without preference or priority among themselves and equally with all of the Corporation’s existing and future unsecured and subordinated

indebtedness, subordinate and junior in right of payment to all of the Corporation’s Senior Indebtedness.

On and after May 18, 2004, the Notes will become the Corporation’s direct, unsecured obligations and will rank without preference or priority among themselves and equally with all of the Corporation’s existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness (including equal to all prior unsubordinated Securities issued pursuant to the Indenture), senior in right of payment to all of the Corporation’s subordinated indebtedness.

If a Successful Remarketing of the Notes has not occurred prior to or on the third Business Day immediately preceding the Purchase Contract Settlement Date, Holders of Notes that remain outstanding will have the right to put their Notes to the Corporation for an amount equal to the principal amount of their Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, on May 18, 2004 (the “Put Exercise Date”), by notifying the Trustee on or prior to the second Business Day before the Put Exercise Date.

In addition to the events listed as Events of Default in Section 801 of the Indenture, it shall be an additional Event of Default with respect to the Notes, if the Corporation defaults in the payment of an amount equal to the principal amount of, plus accrued and unpaid interest on, any Note following the exercise by the Holder of such Note of the put right referred to in the preceding paragraph.

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 by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this instrument to be duly executed under its corporate seal.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any 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 Event of Default with respect to the Notes, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Notes at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity.
