Section 602 Interest Accrual. Each Note will cease to bear interest from
and including its due date for redemption unless, upon due presentation, payment
of the principal in respect of such Note is improperly withheld or refused or
unless default is otherwise made in respect of payment, in which event interest
shall continue to accrue as provided in the Indenture.
Section 603 Calculation of Broken Interest. When interest is required

Global Security will be reduced accordingly. Each payment so made will discharge
the Issuer's obligations in respect thereof. Any failure to make the entries
in the records of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg shall not affect such
discharge. Payments of interest on a temporary Global Security (if permitted
by the first sentence of this paragraph) will be made only upon certification
as to non-U.S. beneficial ownership unless such certification has already been
made.
Payments of principal and interest in respect of each Note, if such Note is
a definitive Bearer Security, will be made against presentation and surrender

amount of the missing unmatured Coupon which the amount so paid bears to the
total amount due) will be deducted from the amount due for payment. Each amount
so deducted will be paid in the manner mentioned in Sections 205, 305, 405 or
505 hereof, as the case may be, against presentation and surrender (or, in the
case of part payment only, endorsement) of the relative missing Coupon for such
Note at any time before the expiry of ten (10) years after the Relevant Date
(as defined in Section 1002 hereof in respect of the relevant Note), whether

prejudice to the provisions of Article Ten hereof.

Agent in respect of any such election made by it.

by or on behalf of the Relevant Jurisdiction, unless the withholding or deduction
of the Taxes is required by law. In that event, the Company will pay such additional

Coupons, if relevant, in the absence of the withholding or deduction; except
that no additional amounts shall be payable in relation to any payment in respect

with the Relevant Jurisdiction other than the mere holding of such Note; or

except to the extent that a holder would have been entitled to additional amounts
on presenting the same for payment on the last day of the period of thirty (30)
days assuming, whether or not such is in fact the case, that day to have been
a Presentation Date (as defined in Section 607 hereof); or
(e) where any such tax or duty would not have been so imposed but for the holder's
present or former status as a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment
company, a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal tax purposes or a
corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax; or
(f) where such tax would not have been imposed but for the failure of such holder
to comply with any certification, identification or other reporting requirements
concerning the nationality, residence, identity or connection with the United
States of the holder or beneficial owner of such Note or Coupon, if such compliance
is required by statute or regulation of the United States Treasury Department
as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax; or
(g) where such withholding or deduction is imposed as a result of any estate,
inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, personal property tax or any similar tax,
assessment or other governmental charge; or

by deduction or withholding by the Company or its paying agent from payments
of principal of, or interest on, such Note or Coupon; or

COMMON CODE: 043206974
This temporary Global Security is issued in respect of the 3.625 per cent. notes
due 2013 (the "Euro Notes due 2013") of Pfizer Inc. (the "Company").
The Euro Notes due 2013 are issued subject to and with the benefit of an indenture,
dated as of January 30, 2001 (the "Base Indenture") as supplemented
by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 2, 2009 (the "Second
Supplemental Indenture" and, together with the Base Indenture, the "Indenture"),
which then shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between,
among others, the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon as Trustee (the "Trustee").
ARTICLE ONE
PROMISE TO PAY
Subject as provided in this temporary Global Security, the Company, for value
received, promises to pay the bearer of this temporary Global Security the sum
of €1,850,000,000 (one billion and eight hundred and fifty million Euros)
or such lesser sum as is equal to the principal amount of the Euro Notes due
2013 represented by this temporary Global Security on June 3, 2013 or on such
earlier date as the principal in respect of this temporary Global Security may
become due under the Indenture and to pay interest on the principal sum for
the time being outstanding at the rate of 3.625 per cent. per annum from and
including June 3, 2009 payable annually in arrear on each Interest Payment Date
(as defined in the Indenture) until payment of the principal sum has been made
or duly provided for in full together with any other amounts as may be payable,
all subject to and under the Indenture.
The principal amount of Euro Notes due 2013 represented by this temporary Global
Security shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records
of both Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. and Clearstream Banking, société
anonyme (together the "relevant

Clearing Systems"). The records of the relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this temporary Global Security means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the amount of such customer's interest in the Euro Notes due 2013) shall be conclusive evidence of the principal amount of Euro Notes due 2013 represented by this temporary Global Security and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made available to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Euro Notes due 2013 represented by this temporary Global Security at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time.
ARTICLE TWO
EXCHANGE FOR PERMANENT GLOBAL SECURITY AND PURCHASES
The permanent Global Security to be issued on exchange for interests in this
temporary Global Security will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
B of the Second Supplemental Indenture.
Subject as provided below, the permanent Global Security will only have an entry
made to represent definitive Bearer Securities after the date which is forty
(40) days after the closing date for the Euro Notes due 2013 (the "Exchange
Date").
Interests in this temporary Global Security may be exchanged for interests recorded
in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in a duly executed and authenticated
permanent Global Security without charge, in full or partial exchange for this
temporary Global Security, in order that the permanent Global Security represents
an aggregate principal amount of Euro Notes due 2013 equal to the principal
amount of this temporary Global Security submitted for exchange. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no such exchange shall be made unless there shall have been presented
to the Principal Paying Agent or such other person as the Principal Paying Agent
may direct (the "Exchange Agent") by a relevant Clearing System a
certificate to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person
entitled to a beneficial interest in a particular principal amount of the Euro
Notes due 2013 (as shown by its records) a certificate of non-US beneficial
ownership in the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in
Exhibit A of the Base Indenture, from such person in the form required by it
and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit B of the Base Indenture unless
such certification has already been made.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, where this temporary Global Security has been
exchanged in part for the permanent Global Security pursuant to the foregoing
and definitive Bearer Securities have been issued in exchange for the total
amount of Euro Notes due 2013 represented by the permanent Global Security pursuant
to its terms, then interests in this temporary Global Security will no longer
be exchangeable for interests in the permanent Global Security but will be exchangeable,
in full or partial exchange, for duly executed and authenticated definitive
Bearer Securities, without charge, in the denomination of €50,000 each
with Coupons attached, such definitive Bearer Securities to be substantially
in the form set out in the Second Supplemental Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, definitive Bearer Securities shall not be so issued and delivered
unless there shall have been presented to the Exchange
A-2
Agent by a relevant Clearing System a certificate to the effect that it has
received from or in respect of a person entitled to a beneficial interest in
a particular principal amount of Euro Notes due 2013 (as shown by its records)
a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in the form required by it and
substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of the Base Indenture, from such
person in the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
B of the Base Indenture unless such certification has already been made.
Any person who would, but for the provisions of this temporary Global Security
and of the Indenture, otherwise be entitled to receive either (a) an interest
in the permanent Global Security or (b) definitive Bearer Securities shall not
be entitled to require the exchange of an appropriate part of this temporary
Global Security for an interest in the permanent Global Security or definitive
Bearer Securities unless and until he shall have delivered or caused to be delivered
to a relevant Clearing System a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in
the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of
the Base Indenture.
Presentation of this temporary Global Security for exchange shall be made by
the bearer hereof on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks
are open for general business in London. The aggregate principal amount of interests
in the permanent Global Security recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing
Systems or, as the case may be, definitive Bearer Securities issued upon an
exchange of this temporary Global Security will, subject to the terms hereof,
be equal to the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security
submitted by the bearer for exchange (to the extent that such principal amount
does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security).
Upon (a) any exchange of a part of this temporary Global Security for an interest
in the permanent Global Security or for a definitive Bearer Security, (b) receipt
of instructions from a relevant Clearing System that, following the purchase
by or on behalf of the Company of a part of this temporary Global Security,
part is to be cancelled or (c) any redemption of a part of this temporary Global
Security, the Company shall procure that the portion of the principal amount
of this temporary Global Security so exchanged, cancelled or redeemed shall
be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. On an exchange
in whole of this temporary Global Security, this temporary Global Security shall
be surrendered to or to the order of the Paying Agent.
ARTICLE THREE
BENEFITS
Until the entire principal amount of this temporary Global Security has been
extinguished in exchange for the permanent Global Security and/or definitive
Bearer Securities, the bearer of this temporary Global Security shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits as if he were the bearer of the definitive
Bearer Securities referred to above, except that the bearer of this temporary
Global Security shall only be entitled to receive any payment on this temporary
Global Security on presentation of certificates as provided below. Accordingly,
except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or as required by law
or applicable regulation, the Company, Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem
and treat the holder of this
A-3
temporary Global Security as the absolute owner of this temporary Global Security for all purposes. All payments of any amounts payable and paid to such holder shall, to the extent of the sums so paid, discharge the liability for the moneys payable on this temporary Global Security and on the relevant definitive Bearer Securities and/or Coupons.
ARTICLE FOUR
PAYMENTS
Payments due in respect of Euro Notes due 2013 for the time being represented
by this temporary Global Security shall be made to the bearer of this temporary
Global Security only upon presentation by a relevant Clearing System to the
Paying Agent at its specified office of a certificate to the effect that it
has received from or in respect of a person entitled to a particular principal
amount of the Euro Notes due 2013 (as shown on its records) a certificate of
non-US beneficial ownership in the form required by it and substantially in
the form set forth in Exhibit A of the Base Indenture. Each payment so made
will discharge the Company's obligations in respect thereof.
The bearer of this temporary Global Security will not be entitled to receive
any payment of interest due on or after the Exchange Date unless, upon due certification,
exchange of this temporary Global Security is improperly withheld or refused.
Upon any payment in respect of the Euro Notes due 2013 represented by this temporary
Global Security, the Company shall procure that the amount so paid shall be
entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. In the case
of any payment of principal the Company shall procure that the amount so paid
shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and,
upon such entry being made, the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2013
recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and represented by
this temporary Global Security shall be reduced by the amount so paid. Any failure
to make such entries shall not affect the discharge referred to in the first
paragraph above.
ARTICLE FIVE

For so long as any of the Euro Notes due 2013 is represented by this temporary
Global Security or by this temporary Global Security and the permanent Global
Security and such Global Security(s) is/are held on behalf of the relevant Clearing
Systems, each person (other than a relevant Clearing System) who is for the

(in which regard any certificate or other document issued by a relevant Clearing
System as to the principal amount of such Euro Notes due 2013 standing to the
account of any person shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive
and binding for all purposes) shall be treated as the holder of such principal
amount of such Euro Notes due 2013 for all purposes (including but not limited
to, for the purposes of any quorum requirements of, or the right to demand a
poll at, meetings of the Holders and giving notice to the Company pursuant to
Section 501 of the Base Indenture) other than with respect to the payment of

for the determination of who may be treated as an Accountholder for all purposes
under the Indenture (including but not limited to, for the purposes of any quorum
requirements of, or the right to demand a poll at, meetings of the Holders and
giving notice to the Company pursuant

to Section 501 of the Base Indenture) other than with respect to the payment
of principal amount and interest of such Euro Notes due 2013, the right to which

in respect of the principal amount of Euro Notes due 2013 for the time being
shown in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems as being held by the Accountholder
and represented by this temporary Global Security to the bearer of this temporary

of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg which would not be suffered were

definitive form and a certificate to such effect signed by two current directors
of the Company is given to the Trustee; or
(d) upon not less than sixty (60) days' written notice from Euroclear and/or

Thereupon (in the case of (a), (b) and (c) above) the holder of the permanent
Global Security (acting on the instructions of one or more of the Accountholders
(as defined below)) or the Trustee may give notice to the Company and (in the
case of (c) above) the Company may give notice to the Trustee and the Holders,

will procure that it is cancelled and, if the holder so requests, returned to
the holder together with any relevant definitive Bearer Securities. Definitive
Bearer Securities to be delivered on exchange shall be delivered only outside
the United States. The definitive Bearer Securities to be issued on exchange
will be in bearer form in the denomination of €50,000 each with Coupons
attached and will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit C to the Second
Supplemental Indenture.
The Company shall deliver to the Trustee sufficient definitive Bearer Securities
to give effect to any exchange as set forth in this Article Three.
For these purposes, "Exchange Date" means a day specified in the notice
requiring exchange falling not less than sixty (60) days after that on which
such notice is given and being a day on which banks are open for general business

ARTICLE ONE
PROMISE TO PAY
Subject as provided in this temporary Global Security, the Company, for value
received, promises to pay the bearer of this temporary Global Security the sum
of €2,000,000,000 (two billion Euros) or such lesser sum as is equal to
the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this temporary
Global Security on June 3, 2016 or on such earlier date as the principal in
respect of this temporary Global Security may become due under the Indenture
and to pay interest on the principal sum for the time being outstanding at the
rate of 4.750 per cent. per annum from and including June 3, 2009 payable annually
in arrear on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture) until
payment of the principal sum has been made or duly provided for in full together
with any other amounts as may be payable, all subject to and under the Indenture.
The principal amount of Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this temporary Global
Security shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records
of both Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. and Clearstream Banking, société
anonyme (together the "relevant
D-1
Clearing Systems"). The records of the relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this temporary Global Security means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the amount of such customer's interest in the Euro Notes due 2016) shall be conclusive evidence of the principal amount of Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this temporary Global Security and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made available to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this temporary Global Security at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time.
ARTICLE TWO
EXCHANGE FOR PERMANENT GLOBAL SECURITY AND PURCHASES
The permanent Global Security to be issued on exchange for interests in this
temporary Global Security will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
E of the Second Supplemental Indenture.
Subject as provided below, the permanent Global Security will only have an entry
made to represent definitive Bearer Securities after the date which is forty
(40) days after the closing date for the Euro Notes due 2016 (the "Exchange
Date").
Interests in this temporary Global Security may be exchanged for interests recorded
in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in a duly executed and authenticated
permanent Global Security without charge, in full or partial exchange for this
temporary Global Security, in order that the permanent Global Security represents
an aggregate principal amount of Euro Notes due 2016 equal to the principal
amount of this temporary Global Security submitted for exchange. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no such exchange shall be made unless there shall have been presented
to the Principal Paying Agent or such other person as the Principal Paying Agent
may direct (the "Exchange Agent") by a relevant Clearing System a
certificate to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person
entitled to a beneficial interest in a particular principal amount of the Euro
Notes due 2016 (as shown by its records) a certificate of non-US beneficial
ownership in the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in
Exhibit A of the Base Indenture, from such person in the form required by it
and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit B of the Base Indenture unless
such certification has already been made.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, where this temporary Global Security has been
exchanged in part for the permanent Global Security pursuant to the foregoing
and definitive Bearer Securities have been issued in exchange for the total
amount of Euro Notes due 2016 represented by the permanent Global Security pursuant
to its terms, then interests in this temporary Global Security will no longer
be exchangeable for interests in the permanent Global Security but will be exchangeable,
in full or partial exchange, for duly executed and authenticated definitive
Bearer Securities, without charge, in the denomination of €50,000 each
with Coupons attached, such definitive Bearer Securities to be substantially
in the form set out in the Second Supplemental Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, definitive Bearer Securities shall not be so issued and delivered
unless there shall have been presented to the Exchange
D-2
Agent by a relevant Clearing System a certificate to the effect that it has
received from or in respect of a person entitled to a beneficial interest in
a particular principal amount of Euro Notes due 2016 (as shown by its records)
a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in the form required by it and
substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of the Base Indenture, from such
person in the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
B of the Base Indenture unless such certification has already been made.
Any person who would, but for the provisions of this temporary Global Security
and of the Indenture, otherwise be entitled to receive either (a) an interest
in the permanent Global Security or (b) definitive Bearer Securities shall not
be entitled to require the exchange of an appropriate part of this temporary
Global Security for an interest in the permanent Global Security or definitive
Bearer Securities unless and until he shall have delivered or caused to be delivered
to a relevant Clearing System a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in
the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of
the Base Indenture.
Presentation of this temporary Global Security for exchange shall be made by
the bearer hereof on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks
are open for general business in London. The aggregate principal amount of interests
in the permanent Global Security recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing
Systems or, as the case may be, definitive Bearer Securities issued upon an
exchange of this temporary Global Security will, subject to the terms hereof,
be equal to the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security
submitted by the bearer for exchange (to the extent that such principal amount
does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security).
Upon (a) any exchange of a part of this temporary Global Security for an interest
in the permanent Global Security or for a definitive Bearer Security, (b) receipt
of instructions from a relevant Clearing System that, following the purchase
by or on behalf of the Company of a part of this temporary Global Security,
part is to be cancelled or (c) any redemption of a part of this temporary Global
Security, the Company shall procure that the portion of the principal amount
of this temporary Global Security so exchanged, cancelled or redeemed shall
be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. On an exchange
in whole of this temporary Global Security, this temporary Global Security shall
be surrendered to or to the order of the Paying Agent.
ARTICLE THREE
BENEFITS
Until the entire principal amount of this temporary Global Security has been
extinguished in exchange for the permanent Global Security and/or definitive
Bearer Securities, the bearer of this temporary Global Security shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits as if he were the bearer of the definitive
Bearer Securities referred to above, except that the bearer of this temporary
Global Security shall only be entitled to receive any payment on this temporary
Global Security on presentation of certificates as provided below. Accordingly,
except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or as required by law
or applicable regulation, the Company, Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem
and treat the holder of this
D-3
temporary Global Security as the absolute owner of this temporary Global Security for all purposes. All payments of any amounts payable and paid to such holder shall, to the extent of the sums so paid, discharge the liability for the moneys payable on this temporary Global Security and on the relevant definitive Bearer Securities and/or Coupons.
ARTICLE FOUR
PAYMENTS
Payments due in respect of Euro Notes due 2016 for the time being represented
by this temporary Global Security shall be made to the bearer of this temporary
Global Security only upon presentation by a relevant Clearing System to the
Paying Agent at its specified office of a certificate to the effect that it
has received from or in respect of a person entitled to a particular principal
amount of the Euro Notes due 2016 (as shown on its records) a certificate of
non-US beneficial ownership in the form required by it and substantially in
the form set forth in Exhibit A of the Base Indenture. Each payment so made
will discharge the Company's obligations in respect thereof.
The bearer of this temporary Global Security will not be entitled to receive
any payment of interest due on or after the Exchange Date unless, upon due certification,
exchange of this temporary Global Security is improperly withheld or refused.
Upon any payment in respect of the Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this temporary
Global Security, the Company shall procure that the amount so paid shall be
entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. In the case
of any payment of principal the Company shall procure that the amount so paid
shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and,
upon such entry being made, the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2016
recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and represented by
this temporary Global Security shall be reduced by the amount so paid. Any failure
to make such entries shall not affect the discharge referred to in the first
paragraph above.

requirements of, or the right to demand a poll at, meetings of the Holders and
giving notice to the Company pursuant to Section 501 of the Base Indenture)
other than with respect to the payment of principal amount and interest of such
Euro Notes due 2016, the right to which shall be vested, as against the Company,

ISIN: XS0432070752
COMMON CODE: 043207075
This permanent Global Security is issued in respect of the 4.750 per cent. Notes
due 2016 (the "Euro Notes due 2016") of Pfizer Inc. (the "Company").
The Euro Notes due 2016 are initially represented by a temporary Global Security
interests in which will be exchanged in accordance with the terms of the temporary
Global Security for interests in this permanent Global Security and, if applicable,
definitive Bearer Securities. The Euro Notes due 2016 are issued subject to
and with the benefit of an indenture, dated as of January 30, 2001 (the "Base
Indenture") as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated
as of June 2, 2009 (the "Second Supplemental Indenture" and, together
with the Base Indenture, the "Indenture", which then shall have the
meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between, among others, the Company
and The Bank of New York Mellon as Trustee (the "Trustee").
ARTICLE ONE
PROMISE TO PAY
Subject as provided in this permanent Global Security, the Company, for value
received, promises to pay the bearer of this permanent Global Security the sum
of €2,000,000,000 (two billion Euros) or such lesser sum as is equal to
the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this permanent
Global Security on June 3, 2016 or on such earlier date as the principal in
respect of this permanent Global Security may become due under the Indenture
and to pay interest on the principal sum for the time being outstanding at the
rate of
E-1
4.750 per cent. Per annum from and including June 3, 2009, payable annually
in arrear on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture) until
payment of the principal sum has been made or duly provided for in full together
with any other amounts as may be payable, all subject to and under the Indenture.
The principal amount of Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this permanent Global
Security shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records
of both Euroclear Bank S.A./NV and Clearstream Banking, société
anonyme (together the "relevant Clearing Systems"). The records of
the relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this permanent Global Security
means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers
which reflect the amount of such customer's interest in the Euro Notes due 2016)
shall be conclusive evidence of the principal amount of Euro Notes due 2016
represented by this permanent Global Security and, for these purposes, a statement
issued by a relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made available
to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Euro Notes due 2016
represented by this permanent Global Security at any time shall be conclusive
evidence of the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time.
ARTICLE TWO
EXCHANGE OF INTERESTS IN THE TEMPORARY GLOBAL SECURITY FOR INTERESTS IN THIS
PERMANENT GLOBAL SECURITY
Upon any exchange of an interest recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing
Systems in the temporary Global Security representing the Euro Notes due 2016
for an interest recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in
this permanent Global Security, the Company shall procure that details of such
exchange shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems.
ARTICLE THREE
EXCHANGE FOR DEFINITIVE BEARER SECURITIES AND PURCHASES
The permanent Global Security will be exchangeable in whole but not in part
(free of charge to the holder) for definitive Bearer Securities only:
(a) upon the happening of any of the events defined in the Indenture as "Events
of Default";
(b) if either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg is closed for business for
a continuous period of fourteen (14) days (other than by reason of holiday,
statutory or otherwise) or announces an intention permanently to cease business
or does in fact do so and no alternative clearing system satisfactory to the
Trustee is available; or
(c) if the Company would suffer a disadvantage as a result of a change in laws
or regulations (taxation or otherwise) or as a result of a change in the practice
of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg which would not be suffered were
the Euro Notes due 2016 in
E-2
definitive form and a certificate to such effect signed by two current directors
of the Company is given to the Trustee; or
(d) upon not less than sixty (60) days' written notice from Euroclear and/or
Clearstream, Luxembourg (acting on the instructions of any holder of an interest
in such permanent Global Security) to the Principal Paying Agent.
Thereupon (in the case of (a), (b) and (c) above) the holder of the permanent
Global Security (acting on the instructions of one or more of the Accountholders
(as defined below)) or the Trustee may give notice to the Company and (in the
case of (c) above) the Company may give notice to the Trustee and the Holders,
of its intention to exchange the permanent Global Security for definitive Bearer
Securities on or after the Exchange Date (as defined below).
On or after the Exchange Date the holder of the permanent Global Security may
or, in the case of (c) above, shall surrender the permanent Global Security
to or to the order of the Principal Paying Agent. In exchange for the permanent
Global Security the Company will deliver, or procure the delivery of, an equal
aggregate principal amount of definitive Bearer Securities (having attached
to them all Coupons in respect of interest which has not already been paid on
the permanent Global Security), security printed in accordance with any applicable
legal and stock exchange requirements and in or substantially in the form set
out in the Indenture. On exchange of the permanent Global Security, the Company
will procure that it is cancelled and, if the holder so requests, returned to
the holder together with any relevant definitive Bearer Securities. Definitive
Bearer Securities to be delivered on exchange shall be delivered only outside
the United States. The definitive Bearer Securities to be issued on exchange
will be in bearer form in the denomination of €50,000 each with Coupons
attached and will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit F to the Second
Supplemental Indenture.
The Company shall deliver to the Trustee sufficient definitive Bearer Securities
to give effect to any exchange as set forth in this Article Three.
For these purposes, "Exchange Date" means a day specified in the notice
requiring exchange falling not less than sixty (60) days after that on which
such notice is given and being a day on which banks are open for general business
in the place in which the specified office of the Principal Paying Agent is
located and, except in the case of exchange pursuant to (b) above, in the place
in which the relevant clearing system is located.
ARTICLE FOUR
BENEFITS
Until the entire principal amount of this permanent Global Security has been
extinguished in exchange for definitive Bearer Securities or in any other manner
envisaged by the terms of the Second Supplemental Indenture, the bearer of this
permanent Global Security shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits
as if he were the bearer of the definitive Bearer Securities referred to above.
Accordingly, except as ordered by a court of competent
E-3
jurisdiction or as required by law or applicable regulation, the Company, the Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem and treat the holder of this permanent Global Security as the absolute owner of this permanent Global Security for all purposes. All payments of any amounts payable and paid to such holder shall, to the extent of the sums so paid, discharge the liability for the moneys payable on this permanent Global Security and on the relevant definitive Bearer Securities and/or Coupons.

in respect thereof.
Upon any payment in respect of the Euro Notes due 2016 represented by this permanent
Global Security, the Company shall procure that the amount so paid shall be
entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. In the case
of any payment of principal the Company shall procure that the amount so paid
shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and,
upon any such entry being made, the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2016
recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and represented by
this permanent Global Security shall be reduced by the amount so paid. Any failure
to make such entries shall not affect the discharge referred to in the previous
paragraph.

such customer's interest in the Euro Notes due 2016.
The Company covenants in favor of each Accountholder that it will make all payments
in respect of the principal amount of Euro Notes due 2016 for the time being
shown in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems as being held by the Accountholder
and represented by this permanent Global Security to the bearer of this permanent

ARTICLE ONE
PROMISE TO PAY
Subject as provided in this temporary Global Security, the Company, for value
received, promises to pay the bearer of this temporary Global Security the sum
of €2,000,000,000 (two billion Euros) or such lesser sum as is equal to
the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2021 represented by this temporary
Global Security on June 3, 2021 or on such earlier date as the principal in
respect of this temporary Global Security may become due under the Indenture
and to pay interest on the principal sum for the time being outstanding at the

in arrear on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture) until

The principal amount of Euro Notes due 2021 represented by this temporary Global
Security shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records
of both Euroclear Bank S.A./NV and Clearstream Banking, société
anonyme (together the "relevant
G-1
Clearing Systems"). The records of the relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this temporary Global Security means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the amount of such customer's interest in the Euro Notes due 2021) shall be conclusive evidence of the principal amount of Euro Notes due 2021 represented by this temporary Global Security and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made available to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Euro Notes due 2021 represented by this temporary Global Security at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time.
ARTICLE TWO
EXCHANGE FOR PERMANENT GLOBAL SECURITY AND PURCHASES
The permanent Global Security to be issued on exchange for interests in this
temporary Global Security will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
H of the Second Supplemental Indenture.
Subject as provided below, the permanent Global Security will only have an entry
made to represent definitive Bearer Securities after the date which is forty
(40) days after the closing date for the Euro Notes due 2021 (the "Exchange
Date").
Interests in this temporary Global Security may be exchanged for interests recorded
in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in a duly executed and authenticated
permanent Global Security without charge, in full or partial exchange for this
temporary Global Security, in order that the permanent Global Security represents
an aggregate principal amount of Euro Notes due 2021 equal to the principal
amount of this temporary Global Security submitted for exchange. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, no such exchange shall be made unless there shall have been presented
to the Principal Paying Agent or such other person as the Principal Paying Agent
may direct (the "Exchange Agent") by a relevant Clearing System a
certificate to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person
entitled to a beneficial interest in a particular principal amount of the Euro
Notes due 2021 (as shown by its records) a certificate of non-US beneficial
ownership in the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in
Exhibit A of the Base Indenture, from such person in the form required by it
and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit B of the Base Indenture unless
such certification has already been made.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, where this temporary Global Security has been
exchanged in part for the permanent Global Security pursuant to the foregoing
and definitive Bearer Securities have been issued in exchange for the total
amount of Euro Notes due 2021 represented by the permanent Global Security pursuant
to its terms, then interests in this temporary Global Security will no longer
be exchangeable for interests in the permanent Global Security but will be exchangeable,
in full or partial exchange, for duly executed and authenticated definitive
Bearer Securities, without charge, in the denomination of €50,000 each
with Coupons attached, such definitive Bearer Securities to be substantially
in the form set out in the Second Supplemental Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, definitive Bearer Securities shall not be so issued and delivered
unless there shall have been presented to the Exchange
G-2
Agent by a relevant Clearing System a certificate to the effect that it has
received from or in respect of a person entitled to a beneficial interest in
a particular principal amount of Euro Notes due 2021 (as shown by its records)
a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in the form required by it and
substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of the Base Indenture, from such
person in the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
B of the Base Indenture unless such certification has already been made.
Any person who would, but for the provisions of this temporary Global Security
and of the Indenture, otherwise be entitled to receive either (a) an interest
in the permanent Global Security or (b) definitive Bearer Securities shall not
be entitled to require the exchange of an appropriate part of this temporary
Global Security for an interest in the permanent Global Security or definitive
Bearer Securities unless and until he shall have delivered or caused to be delivered
to a relevant Clearing System a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in
the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of
the Base Indenture.
Presentation of this temporary Global Security for exchange shall be made by
the bearer hereof on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks
are open for general business in London. The aggregate principal amount of interests
in the permanent Global Security recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing
Systems or, as the case may be, definitive Bearer Securities issued upon an
exchange of this temporary Global Security will, subject to the terms hereof,
be equal to the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security
submitted by the bearer for exchange (to the extent that such principal amount
does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security).
Upon (a) any exchange of a part of this temporary Global Security for an interest
in the permanent Global Security or for a definitive Bearer Security, (b) receipt
of instructions from a relevant Clearing System that, following the purchase
by or on behalf of the Company of a part of this temporary Global Security,
part is to be cancelled or (c) any redemption of a part of this temporary Global
Security, the Company shall procure that the portion of the principal amount
of this temporary Global Security so exchanged, cancelled or redeemed shall
be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. On an exchange
in whole of this temporary Global Security, this temporary Global Security shall
be surrendered to or to the order of the Paying Agent.
ARTICLE THREE
BENEFITS
Until the entire principal amount of this temporary Global Security has been
extinguished in exchange for the permanent Global Security and/or definitive
Bearer Securities, the bearer of this temporary Global Security shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits as if he were the bearer of the definitive
Bearer Securities referred to above, except that the bearer of this temporary
Global Security shall only be entitled to receive any payment on this temporary
Global Security on presentation of certificates as provided below. Accordingly,
except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or as required by law
or applicable regulation, the Company, Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem
and treat the holder of this
G-3
temporary Global Security as the absolute owner of this temporary Global Security for all purposes. All payments of any amounts payable and paid to such holder shall, to the extent of the sums so paid, discharge the liability for the moneys payable on this temporary Global Security and on the relevant definitive Bearer Securities and/or Coupons.
ARTICLE FOUR
PAYMENTS
Payments due in respect of Euro Notes due 2021 for the time being represented
by this temporary Global Security shall be made to the bearer of this temporary
Global Security only upon presentation by a relevant Clearing System to the
Paying Agent at its specified office of a certificate to the effect that it
has received from or in respect of a person entitled to a particular principal
amount of the Euro Notes due 2021 (as shown on its records) a certificate of
non-US beneficial ownership in the form required by it and substantially in
the form set forth in Exhibit A of the Base Indenture. Each payment so made
will discharge the Company's obligations in respect thereof.
The bearer of this temporary Global Security will not be entitled to receive
any payment of interest due on or after the Exchange Date unless, upon due certification,
exchange of this temporary Global Security is improperly withheld or refused.
Upon any payment in respect of the Euro Notes due 2021 represented by this temporary
Global Security, the Company shall procure that the amount so paid shall be
entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. In the case
of any payment of principal the Company shall procure that the amount so paid
shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and,
upon such entry being made, the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2021
recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and represented by
this temporary Global Security shall be reduced by the amount so paid. Any failure
to make such entries shall not affect the discharge referred to in the first
paragraph above.
ARTICLE FIVE
ACCOUNTHOLDERS
For so long as any of the Euro Notes due 2021 is represented by this temporary
Global Security or by this temporary Global Security and the permanent Global
Security and such Global Security(s) is/are held on behalf of the relevant Clearing
Systems, each person (other than a relevant Clearing System) who is for the
time being shown in the records of a relevant Clearing System as the holder
of a particular principal amount of Euro Notes due 2021 (each an "Accountholder")
(in which regard any certificate or other document issued by a relevant Clearing
System as to the principal amount of such Euro Notes due 2021 standing to the
account of any person shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive
and binding for all purposes) shall be treated as the holder of such principal
amount of such Euro Notes due 2021 for all purposes (including but not limited
to, for the purposes of any quorum requirements of, or the right to demand a
poll at, meetings of the Holders and giving notice to the Company pursuant
G-4
to Section 501 of the Base Indenture) other than with respect to the payment
of principal amount and interest of such Euro Notes due 2021, the right to which
shall be vested, as against the Company, solely in the bearer of this temporary
Global Security in accordance with and subject to its terms and the terms of
the Indenture. The Trustee will look solely to the relevant Clearing Systems

Indenture") as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated

Subject as provided in this permanent Global Security, the Company, for value
received, promises to pay the bearer of this permanent Global Security the sum

the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2021 represented by this permanent
Global Security on June 3, 2021 or on such earlier date as the principal in

ARTICLE TWO
EXCHANGE OF INTERESTS IN THE TEMPORARY GLOBAL SECURITY FOR INTERESTS IN THIS
PERMANENT GLOBAL SECURITY
Upon any exchange of an interest recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing
Systems in the temporary Global Security representing the Euro Notes due 2021
for an interest recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in

ARTICLE THREE
EXCHANGE FOR DEFINITIVE BEARER SECURITIES AND PURCHASES
The permanent Global Security will be exchangeable in whole but not in part
(free of charge to the holder) for definitive Bearer Securities only:
(a) upon the happening of any of the events defined in the Indenture as "Events
of Default";
(b) if either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg is closed for business for
a continuous period of fourteen (14) days (other than by reason of holiday,
statutory or otherwise) or announces an intention permanently to cease business
or does in fact do so and no alternative clearing system satisfactory to the
Trustee is available; or
(c) if the Company would suffer a disadvantage as a result of a change in laws
or regulations (taxation or otherwise) or as a result of a change in the practice
of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg which would not be suffered were
the Euro Notes due 2021 in
H-2
definitive form and a certificate to such effect signed by two current directors
of the Company is given to the Trustee; or
(d) upon not less than sixty (60) days' written notice from Euroclear and/or
Clearstream, Luxembourg (acting on the instructions of any holder of an interest
in such permanent Global Security) to the Principal Paying Agent.
Thereupon (in the case of (a), (b) and (c) above) the holder of the permanent
Global Security (acting on the instructions of one or more of the Accountholders
(as defined below)) or the Trustee may give notice to the Company and (in the
case of (c) above) the Company may give notice to the Trustee and the Holders,
of its intention to exchange the permanent Global Security for definitive Bearer
Securities on or after the Exchange Date (as defined below).
On or after the Exchange Date the holder of the permanent Global Security may

to or to the order of the Principal Paying Agent. In exchange for the permanent
Global Security the Company will deliver, or procure the delivery of, an equal
aggregate principal amount of definitive Bearer Securities (having attached
to them all Coupons in respect of interest which has not already been paid on
the permanent Global Security), security printed in accordance with any applicable
legal and stock exchange requirements and in or substantially in the form set
out in the Indenture. On exchange of the permanent Global Security, the Company
will procure that it is cancelled and, if the holder so requests, returned to
the holder together with any relevant definitive Bearer Securities. Definitive
Bearer Securities to be delivered on exchange shall be delivered only outside
the United States. The definitive Bearer Securities to be issued on exchange
will be in bearer form in the denomination of €50,000 each with Coupons
attached and will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit I to the Second
Supplemental Indenture.
The Company shall deliver to the Trustee sufficient definitive Bearer Securities
to give effect to any exchange as set forth in this Article Three.
For these purposes, "Exchange Date" means a day specified in the notice
requiring exchange falling not less than sixty (60) days after that on which
such notice is given and being a day on which banks are open for general business
in the place in which the specified office of the Principal Paying Agent is

in which the relevant clearing system is located.

Until the entire principal amount of this permanent Global Security has been
extinguished in exchange for definitive Bearer Securities or in any other manner
envisaged by the terms of the Second Supplemental Indenture, the bearer of this
permanent Global Security shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits
as if he were the bearer of the definitive Bearer Securities referred to above.
Accordingly, except as ordered by a court of competent

Global Security, the Company shall procure that the amount so paid shall be
entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. In the case
of any payment of principal the Company shall procure that the amount so paid
shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and,
upon any such entry being made, the principal amount of the Euro Notes due 2021
recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and represented by
this permanent Global Security shall be reduced by the amount so paid. Any failure
to make such entries shall not affect the discharge referred to in the previous
paragraph.

shown in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems as being held by the Accountholder
and represented by this permanent Global Security to the bearer of this permanent

This temporary Global Security is issued in respect of the 6.500 per cent. Notes
due 2038 (the "Sterling Notes") of Pfizer Inc. (the "Company").
The Sterling Notes are issued subject to and with the benefit of an indenture,
dated as of January 30, 2001 (the "Base Indenture") as supplemented
by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 2, 2009 (the "Second

which then shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between,
among others, the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon as Trustee (the "Trustee").
ARTICLE ONE
PROMISE TO PAY
Subject as provided in this temporary Global Security, the Company, for value
received, promises to pay the bearer of this temporary Global Security the sum
of £1,500,000,000 (one billion and five hundred million Sterling) or such
lesser sum as is equal to the principal amount of the Sterling Notes represented
by this temporary Global Security on June 3, 2038 or on such earlier date as
the principal in respect of this temporary Global Security may become due under
the Indenture and to pay interest on the principal sum for the time being outstanding
at the rate of 6.500 per cent. Per annum from and including June 3, 2009 payable
annually in arrear on each Interest Payment Date (as defined in the Indenture)
until payment of the principal sum has been made or duly provided for in full
together with any other amounts as may be payable, all subject to and under
the Indenture.
The principal amount of Sterling Notes represented by this temporary Global
Security shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records
of both Euroclear
J-1
Bank S.A./NV and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (together the "relevant Clearing Systems"). The records of the relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this temporary Global Security means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers which reflect the amount of such customer's interest in the Sterling Notes) shall be conclusive evidence of the principal amount of Sterling Notes represented by this temporary Global Security and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made available to the bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Sterling Notes represented by this temporary Global Security at any time shall be conclusive evidence of the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time.
ARTICLE TWO
EXCHANGE FOR PERMANENT GLOBAL SECURITY AND PURCHASES
The permanent Global Security to be issued on exchange for interests in this
temporary Global Security will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
K of the Second Supplemental Indenture.
Subject as provided below, the permanent Global Security will only have an entry
made to represent definitive Bearer Securities after the date which is forty
(40) days after the closing date for the Sterling Notes (the "Exchange
Date").
Interests in this temporary Global Security may be exchanged for interests recorded
in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in a duly executed and authenticated
permanent Global Security without charge, in full or partial exchange for this
temporary Global Security, in order that the permanent Global Security represents
an aggregate principal amount of Sterling Notes equal to the principal amount
of this temporary Global Security submitted for exchange. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no such exchange shall be made unless there shall have been presented
to the Principal Paying Agent or such other person as the Principal Paying Agent
may direct (the "Exchange Agent") by a relevant Clearing System a
certificate to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person
entitled to a beneficial interest in a particular principal amount of the Sterling
Notes (as shown by its records) a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership
in the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit
A of the Base Indenture, from such person in the form required by it and substantially
in the form set out in Exhibit B of the Base Indenture unless such certification
has already been made.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, where this temporary Global Security has been
exchanged in part for the permanent Global Security pursuant to the foregoing
and definitive Bearer Securities have been issued in exchange for the total
amount of Sterling Notes represented by the permanent Global Security pursuant
to its terms, then interests in this temporary Global Security will no longer
be exchangeable for interests in the permanent Global Security but will be exchangeable,
in full or partial exchange, for duly executed and authenticated definitive
Bearer Securities, without charge, in the denomination of £50,000 each
with Coupons attached, such definitive Bearer Securities to be substantially
in the form set out in the Second Supplemental Indenture. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, definitive Bearer Securities
J-2
shall not be so issued and delivered unless there shall have been presented
to the Exchange Agent by a relevant Clearing System a certificate to the effect
that it has received from or in respect of a person entitled to a beneficial
interest in a particular principal amount of Sterling Notes (as shown by its
records) a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in the form required by
it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of the Base Indenture,
from such person in the form required by it and substantially in the form set
out in Exhibit B of the Base Indenture unless such certification has already
been made.
Any person who would, but for the provisions of this temporary Global Security
and of the Indenture, otherwise be entitled to receive either (a) an interest
in the permanent Global Security or (b) definitive Bearer Securities shall not
be entitled to require the exchange of an appropriate part of this temporary
Global Security for an interest in the permanent Global Security or definitive
Bearer Securities unless and until he shall have delivered or caused to be delivered
to a relevant Clearing System a certificate of non-US beneficial ownership in
the form required by it and substantially in the form set out in Exhibit A of
the Base Indenture.
Presentation of this temporary Global Security for exchange shall be made by
the bearer hereof on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks
are open for general business in London. The aggregate principal amount of interests
in the permanent Global Security recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing
Systems or, as the case may be, definitive Bearer Securities issued upon an
exchange of this temporary Global Security will, subject to the terms hereof,
be equal to the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security
submitted by the bearer for exchange (to the extent that such principal amount
does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of this temporary Global Security).
Upon (a) any exchange of a part of this temporary Global Security for an interest
in the permanent Global Security or for a definitive Bearer Security, (b) receipt
of instructions from a relevant Clearing System that, following the purchase
by or on behalf of the Company of a part of this temporary Global Security,
part is to be cancelled or (c) any redemption of a part of this temporary Global
Security, the Company shall procure that the portion of the principal amount
of this temporary Global Security so exchanged, cancelled or redeemed shall
be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. On an exchange
in whole of this temporary Global Security, this temporary Global Security shall
be surrendered to or to the order of the Paying Agent.
ARTICLE THREE
BENEFITS
Until the entire principal amount of this temporary Global Security has been
extinguished in exchange for the permanent Global Security and/or definitive
Bearer Securities, the bearer of this temporary Global Security shall in all
respects be entitled to the same benefits as if he were the bearer of the definitive
Bearer Securities referred to above, except that the bearer of this temporary
Global Security shall only be entitled to receive any payment on this temporary
Global Security on presentation of certificates as provided below. Accordingly,
except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or as required by law
or applicable
J-3
regulation, the Company, Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem and treat the holder of this temporary Global Security as the absolute owner of this temporary Global Security for all purposes. All payments of any amounts payable and paid to such holder shall, to the extent of the sums so paid, discharge the liability for the moneys payable on this temporary Global Security and on the relevant definitive Bearer Securities and/or Coupons.
ARTICLE FOUR

COMMON CODE: 043207202
This permanent Global Security is issued in respect of the 6.500 per cent. Notes
due 2038 (the " Sterling Notes") of Pfizer Inc. (the "Company").
The Sterling Notes are initially represented by a temporary Global Security
interests in which will be exchanged in accordance with the terms of the temporary
Global Security for interests in this permanent Global Security and, if applicable,
definitive Bearer Securities. The Sterling Notes are issued subject to and with
the benefit of an indenture, dated as of January 30, 2001 (the "Base Indenture")
as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of June 2, 2009
(the "Second Supplemental Indenture" and, together with the Base Indenture,
the "Indenture", which then shall have the meaning assigned to it
in such instrument), between, among others, the Company and The Bank of New
York Mellon as Trustee (the "Trustee").
ARTICLE ONE
PROMISE TO PAY
Subject as provided in this permanent Global Security, the Company, for value
received, promises to pay the bearer of this permanent Global Security the sum
of £1,500,000,000 (one billion and five hundred million Sterling) or such
lesser sum as is equal to the principal amount of the Sterling Notes represented
by this permanent Global Security on June 3, 2038 or on such earlier date as
the principal in respect of this permanent Global Security may become due under
the Indenture and to pay interest on the principal sum for the time being
K-1
outstanding at the rate of 6.500 per cent. Per annum from and including June
3, 2009, payable annually in arrear on each Interest Payment Date (as defined
in the Indenture) until payment of the principal sum has been made or duly provided
for in full together with any other amounts as may be payable, all subject to
and under the Indenture.
The principal amount of Sterling Notes represented by this permanent Global
Security shall be the aggregate amount from time to time entered in the records
of both Euroclear Bank S.A./NV and Clearstream Banking, société
anonyme (together the "relevant Clearing Systems"). The records of
the relevant Clearing Systems (which expression in this permanent Global Security
means the records that each relevant Clearing System holds for its customers
which reflect the amount of such customer's interest in the Sterling Notes)
shall be conclusive evidence of the principal amount of Sterling Notes represented
by this permanent Global Security and, for these purposes, a statement issued
by a relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made available to the
bearer upon request) stating the nominal amount of Sterling Notes represented
by this permanent Global Security at any time shall be conclusive evidence of
the records of the relevant Clearing System at that time.
ARTICLE TWO
EXCHANGE OF INTERESTS IN THE TEMPORARY GLOBAL SECURITY FOR INTERESTS IN THIS
PERMANENT GLOBAL SECURITY
Upon any exchange of an interest recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing
Systems in the temporary Global Security representing the Sterling Notes for
an interest recorded in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems in this
permanent Global Security, the Company shall procure that details of such exchange
shall be entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems.
ARTICLE THREE
EXCHANGE FOR DEFINITIVE BEARER SECURITIES AND PURCHASES
The permanent Global Security will be exchangeable in whole but not in part
(free of charge to the holder) for definitive Bearer Securities only:
(a) upon the happening of any of the events defined in the Indenture as "Events
of Default";
(b) if either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg is closed for business for
a continuous period of fourteen (14) days (other than by reason of holiday,
statutory or otherwise) or announces an intention permanently to cease business
or does in fact do so and no alternative clearing system satisfactory to the
Trustee is available; or
(c) if the Company would suffer a disadvantage as a result of a change in laws
or regulations (taxation or otherwise) or as a result of a change in the practice
of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg which would not be suffered were
the Sterling Notes in
K-2
definitive form and a certificate to such effect signed by two current directors
of the Company is given to the Trustee; or
(d) upon not less than sixty (60) days' written notice from Euroclear and/or
Clearstream, Luxembourg (acting on the instructions of any holder of an interest
in such permanent Global Security) to the Principal Paying Agent.
Thereupon (in the case of (a), (b) and (c) above) the holder of the permanent
Global Security (acting on the instructions of one or more of the Accountholders
(as defined below)) or the Trustee may give notice to the Company and (in the
case of (c) above) the Company may give notice to the Trustee and the Holders,
of its intention to exchange the permanent Global Security for definitive Bearer
Securities on or after the Exchange Date (as defined below).
On or after the Exchange Date the holder of the permanent Global Security may
or, in the case of (c) above, shall surrender the permanent Global Security
to or to the order of the Principal Paying Agent. In exchange for the permanent
Global Security the Company will deliver, or procure the delivery of, an equal
aggregate principal amount of definitive Bearer Securities (having attached
to them all Coupons in respect of interest which has not already been paid on
the permanent Global Security), security printed in accordance with any applicable
legal and stock exchange requirements and in or substantially in the form set
out in the Indenture. On exchange of the permanent Global Security, the Company
will procure that it is cancelled and, if the holder so requests, returned to
the holder together with any relevant definitive Bearer Securities. Definitive
Bearer Securities to be delivered on exchange shall be delivered only outside
the United States. The definitive Bearer Securities to be issued on exchange
will be in bearer form in the denomination of £50,000 each with Coupons
attached and will be substantially in the form set out in Exhibit L to the Second
Supplemental Indenture.
The Company shall deliver to the Trustee sufficient definitive Bearer Securities
to give effect to any exchange as set forth in this Article Three.
For these purposes, "Exchange Date" means a day specified in the notice
requiring exchange falling not less than sixty (60) days after that on which
such notice is given and being a day on which banks are open for general business
in the place in which the specified office of the Principal Paying Agent is
located and, except in the case of exchange pursuant to (b) above, in the place
in which the relevant clearing system is located.
ARTICLE FOUR
BENEFITS
Until the entire principal amount of this permanent Global Security has been
extinguished in exchange for definitive Bearer Securities or in any other manner
envisaged by the terms of the Second Supplemental Indenture, the bearer of this
permanent Global Security shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits
as if he were the bearer of the definitive Bearer Securities referred to above.
Accordingly, except as ordered by a court of competent
K-3
jurisdiction or as required by law or applicable regulation, the Company,
the Trustee and any Paying Agent may deem and treat the holder of this permanent
Global Security as the absolute owner of this permanent Global Security for
all purposes. All payments of any amounts payable and paid to such holder shall,
to the extent of the sums so paid, discharge the liability for the moneys payable
on this permanent Global Security and on the relevant definitive Bearer Securities
and/or Coupons.

Global Security, the Company shall procure that the amount so paid shall be
entered pro rata in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems. In the case
of any payment of principal the Company shall procure that the amount so paid

upon any such entry being made, the principal amount of the Sterling Notes recorded
in the records of the relevant Clearing Systems and represented by this permanent
Global Security shall be reduced by the amount so paid. Any failure to make
such entries shall not affect the discharge referred to in the previous paragraph.
