received, hereby promises to pay to , or registered assigns, the principal
sum of [DOLLARS] on the Stated Maturity Date specified above (except to
the extent redeemed or repaid prior to the Stated Maturity Date and except to
the extent extended as provided herein), and to pay interest thereon, at a
rate per annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate specified above from the
Original Issue Date specified above until the Initial Interest Reset Date
specified above and thereafter at the rate or rates per annum determined in
accordance with the provisions hereof, including the provisions under the
heading "Determination of Commercial Paper Rate," "Determination of CD Rate,"
"Determination of Federal Funds Rate," "Determination of LIBOR,"
"Determination of Prime Rate," "Determination of Treasury Rate" or
"Determination of CMT Rate," as applicable depending upon whether the Interest
Rate Basis specified above is Commercial Paper Rate, CD Rate, Federal Funds
Rate, LIBOR, Prime Rate, Treasury Rate, CMT Rate or the lowest of any two or
more of such Interest Rate Bases, as indicated above, until the principal
hereof is paid or duly made available for payment.
The Company shall pay interest monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually
as specified above under "Interest Payment Period," on each Interest Payment
Date specified above, commencing with the first Interest Payment Date
specified above next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and
on the Stated Maturity Date, or any Redemption Date, Purchase Date or Optional
Repayment Date (in each case as defined herein) on which this Note is
redeemed, repurchased or repaid prior to the Stated Maturity Date in whole or
in part (each such Stated Maturity Date, Redemption Date, Purchase Date and
Optional Repayment Date are
1
referred to hereinafter as a "Maturity Date" with respect to principal,
premium, if any, and interest payable on such date); provided, however, unless
otherwise specified herein, if the Original Issue Date specified above is
between a Regular Record Date (as defined herein) and the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date or on an Interest Payment Date, interest payments hereon
shall commence on the Interest Payment Date following the next succeeding
Regular Record Date to the registered Holder of this Note on such next
succeeding Regular Record Date. If any Maturity Date falls on a day that is
not a Business Day (as defined herein), the related payment of principal,
premium, if any, and interest payable with respect to such Maturity Date shall
be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as
if made on such Maturity Date, and no interest shall accrue on the amount so
payable for the period from and after such Maturity Date. If any day specified
above as an Interest Payment Date (that is not a Maturity Date) is not a
Business Day, then such Interest Payment Date shall be the next succeeding day
that is a Business Day, except that if the Interest Rate Basis or one of the
Interest Rate Bases specified above is LIBOR and such next succeeding Business
Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date
shall be the next preceding day that is a Business Day. Except as provided
above, interest payments shall be made on the Interest Payment Dates specified
above. Except as indicated above, each "Regular Record Date" shall be the date
fifteen (15) calendar days (whether or not a Business Day) prior to the
applicable Interest Payment Date. Interest on this Note shall accrue from the
most recent Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid
or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from and including the
Original Issue Date specified above, at the rates determined from time to time
as specified herein, until the principal hereof has been paid or made
available for payment in full. The interest (except defaulted interest) so
payable or duly provided for on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the
person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes) is
registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such
Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable on any
Maturity Date shall be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof
shall be payable.
Payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Note
shall be made in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at
the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private
debts to the Holder hereof upon presentation and surrender of this Note at the
office of the Paying Agent, which is currently the corporate trust department
of the Trustee (as defined herein), 000 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00 Xxxx, Xxx
Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, or at such other office or agency of the Company in The
City of New York as the Company shall designate by written notice to the
Holder hereof; provided, however, that payment of interest on any Interest
Payment Date (other than a Maturity Date) without presentation of this Note
(i) may be made on each Interest Payment Date by check mailed to the address
of the Holder hereof as of the close of business on the immediately preceding
Regular Record Date at such address as shall appear in the security register
or (ii) upon receipt by the Paying Agent of appropriate payment instructions
in writing from the Holder hereof (provided such Holder is the Holder of an
aggregate principal amount of Notes, including this Note, of $10,000,000 or
more having the same Interest Payment Dates) not less than sixteen (16)
calendar days prior to such Interest Payment Date, shall be made in United
States dollars by the wire transfer of immediately available funds to such
account at a bank in The City of New York, New York (or other bank consented
to by the Company and the Paying Agent) as the Holder hereof shall have
designated in such instructions so long as such bank has appropriate
facilities therefor. Payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and
interest on this Note will be made on a Maturity Date, upon presentation and
surrender of this Note to the Paying Agent as provided above, (a) in
immediately available funds, provided that this Note is so presented and
surrendered in time for the Paying Agent to make such payment in immediately
available funds in accordance with its normal procedures, or (b) by the wire
transfer of immediately available funds to such account at a bank in The City
of New York, New York (or other bank consented to by the Company and the
Paying Agent) as the Holder hereof shall have designated, provided that such
bank has appropriate facilities therefor and that wire transfer instructions
in writing have been received by the Paying Agent not less than sixteen (16)
calendar days prior to such Maturity Date. If required by applicable law or
instructed by the Company or any governmental agency that taxes or other
governmental charges should be withheld, the Paying Agent shall withhold any
such taxes or other governmental charges on any payments made in connection
with this Note.
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company
issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of , 1998 (the
"Indenture"), between the Company, as issuer, and The Bank of
2
New York, as trustee (herein called the "Trustee," which term includes any
successor trustee under the Indenture), which securities may be issued in one
or more series (therein called the "Securities"). The terms of the Notes (as
defined below) include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of
the Indenture by the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Act").
Reference is hereby made to the Indenture and all indentures supplemental
thereto and the Act for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of
rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the
Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and
are to be, authenticated and delivered. All terms used and not defined in this
Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to
them in the Indenture. This Note is one of the series of Securities designated
"Medium-Term Notes, Series D" (Securities of such series being herein called
the "Notes"). The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company.
This Note shall not be subject to any sinking fund and, except as may be
provided in the next two paragraphs, shall not be redeemable or repayable
prior to the Stated Maturity Date. If an Event of Default with respect to the
Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal amount of, and accrued
interest on, the Notes may be declared or may become due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
If so provided above, this Note may be redeemed at the option of the Company
on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified above.
If no Initial Redemption Date is set forth above, this Note may not be
redeemed at the option of the Company prior to its Stated Maturity Date. On
and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, this Note may be redeemed at
any time in whole or from time to time in part in denominations of $1,000
principal amount hereof or any integral multiple of $1,000 (provided that any
remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least $1,000) at the option of
the Company at the applicable Redemption Price (as defined below), together
with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be redeemed at the
applicable rate to but excluding the date of redemption (each such date a
"Redemption Date"), on notice given by the Company or the Trustee to the
Holder hereof not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the Redemption
Date. Whenever less than all the Notes at any time outstanding are to be
redeemed, the particular Notes to be so redeemed shall be selected by the
Company, provided that if less than all the Notes with identical terms at any
time outstanding are to be redeemed, the Notes to be so redeemed shall be
selected by the Trustee by lot or such other method as the Trustee considers
fair and appropriate. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a
new Note for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the
Holder hereof upon the surrender hereof. The "Redemption Price" shall
initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage, if any, specified above, of
the principal amount of this Note to be redeemed and, if the Initial
Redemption Percentage is greater than 100%, shall decline at each anniversary
of the Initial Redemption Date, specified above, by the Annual Redemption
Percentage Reduction, if any, specified above, of the principal amount to be
redeemed until the Redemption Price is 100% of such principal amount.
This Note may be subject to repayment at the option of the Holder hereof on
each Optional Repayment Date, if any, indicated above. If no Optional
Repayment Date is set forth above, this Note may not be so repaid at the
option of the Holder hereof prior to its Stated Maturity Date. On any Optional
Repayment Date this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part in
denominations of $1,000 principal amount hereof or any integral multiple of
$1,000 (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least
$1,000), at the option of the Holder hereof at a repayment price equal to 100%
of the principal amount to be repaid, together with accrued and unpaid
interest thereon at the applicable rate to but excluding the date of
repayment. For this Note to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the
Holder hereof, either (i) this Note must be surrendered, not more than 60 nor
less than 30 days prior to an Optional Repayment Date, with the form entitled
"Option to Elect Repayment" below duly completed, at the office of the Paying
Agent (currently the corporate trust department of the Trustee at 000 Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00 Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000), or at such other office or
offices in the City of New York, New York of which the Company shall from time
to time notify the Holder of this Note or (ii) the Paying Agent must receive
at such office, within such period of time prior to an Optional Repayment
Date, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a
national securities exchange or the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States
setting forth the name of the Holder of this Note, the principal amount of
this
3
Note, the principal amount of this Note to be repaid, the certificate number
or a description of the tenor and terms hereof, a statement that the option to
elect repayment is being exercised thereby and a guarantee that this Note with
the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" below duly completed will be
surrendered to the Paying Agent not later than five Business Days after the
date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter and this Note,
with such form duly completed, are received by the Paying Agent by such fifth
Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by the Holder hereof shall be
irrevocable. No transfer or exchange of this Note (or, in the event that this
Note is to be repaid in part, the portion of this Note to be repaid) shall be
permitted after exercise of a repayment option. All questions as to the
validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of this Note
for repayment will be determined by the Company, which determination shall be
final, binding and non-appealable.
This Note may be subject to an extension of its Stated Maturity Date at the
option of the Company for one or more whole year periods, if any, indicated
above (each an "Extension Period") up to but not beyond the Final Maturity
Date, if any, indicated above. If this Note may be extended, the basis or
formula, if any, for setting the Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, if any, for
such Extension Period will be as indicated above.
The Company may exercise such option with respect to this Note by notifying
the Trustee of such exercise not more than 60 nor less than 45 days prior to
the Stated Maturity Date in effect prior to the exercise of such option (the
"Original Stated Maturity Date"). No later than 40 days prior to the Original
Stated Maturity Date, the Trustee will mail to the Holder hereof a notice (the
"Extension Notice") relating to such Extension Period, by first class mail,
postage prepaid, setting forth (i) the election of the Company to extend the
Stated Maturity Date, (ii) the new Stated Maturity Date, (iii) any Spread
and/or Spread Multiplier applicable to the Extension Period, (iv) the
provisions, if any, for redemption at the option of the Company during the
Extension Period, including the date or dates on which or the period or
periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may
occur during the Extension Period and (v) if this Note is subject to repayment
at the option of the Holder hereof, the provisions, if any, for repayment of
this Note at the option of the Holder on the Original Stated Maturity Date,
the price at which such repurchase shall occur, and the period within which
this Note, with the "Option to Elect Repayment" form completed, must be
surrendered to the Paying Agent. Upon the mailing by the Trustee of an
Extension Notice to the Holder hereof, the Stated Maturity Date of this Note
shall be extended automatically as set forth in the Extension Notice, and
except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described by the next
paragraph, such Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such
Extension Notice.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Original
Stated Maturity Date, the Company may, at its option, revoke the Spread and/or
Spread Multiplier in each case, if any, provided for in the Extension Notice
and establish a higher Spread and/or Spread Multiplier in each case, if any,
for the Extension Period by mailing or causing the Trustee to mail notice of
such higher Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, by first class mail, postage
prepaid, to the Holder hereof. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes
with identical terms with respect to which the Stated Maturity Date is
extended will bear such higher Spread and/or Spread Multiplier, as the case
may be, for the Extension Period.
This Note shall bear interest at the rate per annum equal to the Initial
Interest Rate specified above from the Original Issue Date specified above
until the Initial Interest Reset Date specified above and thereafter, subject
to the limitations set forth herein, at the rate or rates per annum determined
by reference to the Interest Rate Basis shown above or, if two or more
Interest Rate Bases (other than the Treasury Rate) are shown above, then by
reference to one or more such Interest Rate Bases, in either case adjusted by
(i) adding or subtracting (as indicated above) the Spread, if any, or (ii)
multiplying by the Spread Multiplier, if any, as specified above. The Interest
Rate Basis or Bases shall be the rate determined in accordance with the
applicable provision below. Commencing with the Initial Interest Reset Date
specified above following the Original Issue Date specified above, the rate at
which interest on this Note is payable shall be reset daily, weekly, monthly,
quarterly, semi-annually or annually, as shown above under "Interest Reset
Period," as of each Interest Reset Date specified above. If any Interest Reset
Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset
Date
4
shall be postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, except
that if an Interest Rate Basis specified above is LIBOR and such next Business
Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall
be the next preceding Business Day.
Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment Date shall be equal to
the amount of interest accrued from and including the most recent date to
which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the
Original Issue Date specified above, if no interest has been paid), to but
excluding the Interest Payment Date for such payment; and provided that the
interest payments on a Maturity Date shall include interest accrued to but
excluding such Maturity Date. Accrued interest hereon shall be an amount
calculated by multiplying the principal amount hereof by an accrued interest
factor. Such accrued interest factor shall be computed by adding the interest
factors calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is
being calculated. The interest factor (expressed as a decimal) for each such
day shall be computed by dividing the interest rate in effect for such day by
360 in the case of Notes having as their Interest Rate Basis the Commercial
Paper Rate, the CD Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, LIBOR or the Prime Rate, or
by the actual number of days in the year in the case of Notes having as their
Interest Rate Basis the Treasury Rate or the CMT Rate. The interest factor for
Notes for which the interest rate is calculated with reference to two or more
Interest Rate Bases shall be calculated in each period in the same manner as
if only one of the applicable Interest Rate Bases applied.
The interest rate in effect on each day shall be (a) if such day is an
Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined on the Interest
Determination Date (as defined below) pertaining to such Interest Reset Date
or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined
on the Interest Determination Date pertaining to the next preceding Interest
Reset Date, provided that the interest rate in effect for the period from the
Original Issue Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial
Interest Rate specified above.
The "Interest Determination Date" with respect to the Commercial Paper Rate,
the CD Rate, the Federal Funds Rate, the Prime Rate and the CMT Rate shall be
the second Business Day preceding each Interest Reset Date. The "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to LIBOR shall be the second London Business
Day (as defined below) preceding each Interest Reset Date. The "Interest
Determination Date" with respect to the Treasury Rate (unless otherwise
specified above) shall be the day of the week in which the related Interest
Reset Date falls on which Treasury bills (as defined below), of the Index
Maturity specified above, are auctioned. Treasury Bills are normally sold at
auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in which
case the auction is normally held on the following Tuesday, except that such
auction may be held on the preceding Friday. If, as a result of a legal
holiday, an auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding the related
Interest Reset Date, the related Interest Determination Date shall be such
preceding Friday. If an auction date shall fall on any Interest Reset Date,
then the Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day following
such auction date. If the interest rate hereon is determined with reference to
two or more Interest Rate Bases, the Interest Determination Date pertaining to
this Note shall be the first Business Day which is at least two Business Days
prior to the related Interest Reset Date on which each Interest Rate Basis
shall be determinable. Each Interest Rate Basis shall be determined on such
date, and the applicable interest rate shall take effect on the related
Interest Reset Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate on this Note (i) shall not
be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum
Interest Rate, if any, specified above, and (ii) shall in no event be greater
than the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified
by United States law of general application.
The "Calculation Date," if applicable, pertaining to any Interest
Determination Date will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after
such Interest Determination Date or, if such day is not a Business Day, the
next succeeding Business Day or (ii) the Business Day immediately preceding
the applicable Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be.
All percentages resulting from any calculation on this Note shall be
rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage
point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward
5
(e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) would be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655)),
and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation shall be
rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward).
As used herein, "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or
Sunday, that is not a day on which banking institutions are authorized or
required by law, regulation or executive order to be closed in The City of New
York, New York and, if an Interest Rate Basis for this Note, as indicated
above, is LIBOR, is also a London Business Day. "London Business Day" means
any day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. Dollars are transacted in the
London interbank market.
Determination of Commercial Paper Rate. If an Interest Rate Basis for this
Note is the Commercial Paper Rate, as indicated above, the Commercial Paper
Rate determined with respect to the applicable Interest Determination Date (a
"Commercial Paper Rate Interest Determination Date") shall be the Money Market
Yield (as defined below) of the rate on such date for commercial paper having
the Index Maturity specified above as published by the Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System in "Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected
Interest Rates" or any successor publication of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve ("H.15(519)") under the caption "Commercial Paper--Non-
financial." In the event such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to such Commercial Paper Rate
Interest Determination Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate shall be the Money
Market Yield of the rate on such Commercial Paper Rate Interest Determination
Date for commercial paper having the Index Maturity shown above as published
by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in its daily statistical release
"Composite 3:30 p.m. Quotations for U.S. Government Securities" or any
successor publication of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York ("Composite
Quotations") under the heading "Commercial Paper." If by 3:00 p.m., New York
City time, on the related Calculation Date such rate is not yet published in
either H.15(519) or Composite Quotations, then the Commercial Paper Rate for
such Commercial Paper Rate Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by
a calculation agent which shall be the Trustee or, if another calculation
agent is named above, such calculation agent (the "Calculation Agent") and
shall be the Money Market Yield of the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary,
to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) of the offered
rates as of approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Commercial
Paper Rate Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of commercial
paper (which, unless otherwise specified above, may include an affiliate of
the Calculation Agent or a selling agent or an underwriter hereof) in The City
of New York, New York selected by the Calculation Agent for commercial paper
having the Index Maturity specified above placed for a non-financial entity
whose bond rating is "AA," or its equivalent, from a nationally recognized
securities rating organization; provided, however, that if the dealers
selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in
this sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate determined with respect to such
Commercial Paper Rate Interest Determination Date shall be the Commercial
Paper Rate determined with respect to the immediately preceding Commercial
Paper Rate Interest Determination Date or, in the case of the first Commercial
Paper Rate Interest Determination Date, the Initial Interest Rate specified
above.
"Money Market Yield" shall be a yield (expressed as a percentage rounded, if
necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point)
calculated in accordance with the following formula:
Money Market Yield = D X 360 X 100
360 -- (D x M)
where "D" refers to the applicable per annum rate for commercial paper quoted
on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal and "M" refers to the
actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being
calculated.
Determination of CD Rate. If an Interest Rate Basis for this Note is the CD
Rate, as indicated above, the CD Rate determined with respect to the
applicable Interest Determination Date (a "CD Rate Interest Determination
Date") shall be the rate on such date for negotiable certificates of deposit
having the Index Maturity specified above as published in H.15(519), under the
heading "CDs (Secondary Market)" or, if not so
6
published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining
to such CD Rate Interest Determination Date, the rate on such CD Rate Interest
Determination Date for negotiable certificates of deposit of the Index
Maturity specified above as published in Composite Quotations under the
heading "Certificates of Deposit." If such rate is not yet published in either
H.15(519) or Composite Quotations by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Calculation Date, then the CD Rate for such CD Rate Interest Determination
Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the arithmetic
mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a
percentage point) of the secondary market offered rates as of approximately
10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such CD Rate Interest Determination Date of
three leading nonbank dealers (which, unless otherwise specified above, may
include an affiliate of the Calculation Agent or a selling agent or an
underwriter hereof) in negotiable U.S. Dollar certificates of deposit in The
City of New York, New York selected by the Calculation Agent for negotiable
certificates of deposit of major United States money center banks (in the
market for negotiable U.S. Dollar certificates of deposit) with a remaining
maturity closest to the Index Maturity designated above in the denomination of
U.S. $5,000,000; provided, however, that if the dealers selected as aforesaid
by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence, the CD
Rate determined with respect to such CD Rate Interest Determination Date shall
be the CD Rate determined with respect to the immediately preceding CD Rate
Interest Determination Date or, in the case of the first CD Rate Interest
Determination Date, the Initial Interest Rate specified above.
Determination of Federal Funds Rate. If an Interest Rate Basis for this Note
is the Federal Funds Rate, as indicated above, the Federal Funds Rate
determined with respect to the applicable Interest Determination Date (a
"Federal Funds Rate Interest Determination Date"), shall be the rate on that
date for Federal Funds as published in H.15(519) under the heading "Federal
Funds (Effective)" or, if not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time,
on the Calculation Date pertaining to such Federal Funds Rate Interest
Determination Date, the rate on such Federal Funds Rate Interest Determination
Date for Federal Funds as published in Composite Quotations under the heading
"Federal Funds/Effective Rate." If such rate is not yet published in either
H.15(519) or Composite Quotations by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
related Calculation Date, the Federal Funds Rate for such Federal Funds Rate
Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and
shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one
hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) of the rates as of approximately
9:00 a.m., New York City time, on such Federal Funds Rate Interest
Determination Date for the last transaction in overnight Federal Funds
arranged by three leading brokers of Federal Funds transactions in The City of
New York, New York selected by the Calculation Agent; provided, however, that
if the brokers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting
as mentioned in this sentence, the Federal Funds Rate determined with respect
to such Federal Funds Rate Interest Determination Date shall be the Federal
Funds Rate determined with respect to the immediately preceding Federal Funds
Rate Interest Determination Date or, in the case of the first Federal Funds
Rate Interest Determination Date, the Initial Interest Rate specified above.
Determination of LIBOR. (i) If an Interest Rate Basis for this Note is
LIBOR, as indicated above, LIBOR determined with respect to any applicable
Interest Determination Date (a "LIBOR Interest Determination Date"), shall be
the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-
thousandth of a percentage point) of the offered rates, as calculated by the
Calculation Agent, for deposits in the Designated LIBOR Currency (as defined
below) of not less than U.S. $1,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in one or
more other currencies) having the Index Maturity specified above, commencing
on the second London Business Day immediately following such LIBOR Interest
Determination Date, which appear on the Designated LIBOR Page (as defined
below) as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Interest
Determination Date, if at least two such offered rates appear on the
Designated LIBOR Page. If fewer than two offered rates appear on the
Designated LIBOR Page, LIBOR in respect of that LIBOR Interest Determination
Date will be determined as if the parties had specified the rate described in
(ii) below.
(ii) With respect to a LIBOR Interest Determination Date on which fewer than
two offered rates appear on the Designated LIBOR Page as specified in (i)
above, the Calculation Agent shall request the principal London offices of
each of four major reference banks in the London interbank market selected by
the Calculation Agent
7
to provide the Calculation Agent with a quotation of the rate at which
deposits in the Designated LIBOR Currency for the period of the Index Maturity
specified above, commencing on the second London Business Day immediately
following such LIBOR Interest Determination Date, are offered by it to prime
banks in the London interbank market as of approximately 11:00 a.m., London
time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount
equal to an amount of not less than U.S. $1,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof
in one or more other currencies) that is representative for a single
transaction in such market at such time. If at least two such quotations are
provided, LIBOR with respect to such LIBOR Interest Determination Date shall
be the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-
thousandth of a percentage point) of such quotations as calculated by the
Calculation Agent. If fewer than two quotations are provided, LIBOR for such
LIBOR Interest Determination Date shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded, if
necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point), as
calculated by the Calculation Agent, of the rates quoted as of approximately
11:00 a.m., New York City time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date by
three major banks in The City of New York, New York selected by the
Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company) for loans in the
Designated LIBOR Currency to leading European banks, having the Index Maturity
specified above commencing on the second London Business Day immediately
following such LIBOR Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount
equal to an amount of not less than U.S. $1,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof
in one or more other currencies) that is representative for a single
transaction in such market at such time; provided, however, that if the banks
selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as mentioned in
this sentence, LIBOR determined with respect to such LIBOR Interest
Determination Date shall be LIBOR determined with respect to the immediately
preceding LIBOR Interest Determination Date or, in the case of the first LIBOR
Interest Determination Date, the Initial Interest Rate specified above.
As used herein the following terms have the following definitions:
"Designated LIBOR Page" means (a) if "LIBOR Reuters" is specified above,
the display on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or any successor
service) on the page specified above (or any other page as may replace such
page on such service) for the purpose of displaying the London interbank
rates of major banks for the Designated LIBOR Currency, or (b) if "LIBOR
Telerate" is specified above or neither "LIBOR Reuters" nor "LIBOR
Telerate" is specified as the method for calculating LIBOR, the display on
the Dow Xxxxx Markets Limited (or any successor service) on the page
specified above (or any other page as may replace such page on such
service), or if no such page is specified the applicable page, for the
purpose of displaying the London interbank rates of major banks for the
Designated LIBOR Currency.
"Designated LIBOR Currency" means the currency or composite currency
specified above as to which LIBOR shall be calculated or, if no such
currency or composite currency is specified, U.S. Dollars.
Determination of Prime Rate. If an Interest Rate Basis for this Note is the
Prime Rate, as indicated above, the Prime Rate determined with respect to the
applicable Interest Determination Date (a "Prime Rate Interest Determination
Date") shall be the rate on such date for the prime rate as published in
H.15(519) under the heading "Bank Prime Loan." In the event that such rate is
not so published prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation
Date pertaining to such Prime Rate Interest Determination Date, the Prime Rate
shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by
each bank that appears on the Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page (as defined below)
as such bank's prime rate or base lending rate as in effect for such Prime
Rate Interest Determination Date. If fewer than four such rates appear on the
Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page for such Prime Rate Interest Determination Date,
then the Prime Rate shall be the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to
the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point), as calculated by
the Calculation Agent, of the prime rates quoted on the basis of the actual
number of days in the year divided by 360 as of the close of business on such
Prime Rate Interest Determination Date by four major money center banks in The
City of New York, New York, selected by the Calculation Agent (after
consultation with the Company). If fewer than four such quotations are so
provided, the Prime Rate shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent (as
described above) on the basis of the prime rates quoted by the major money
center banks so selected and the prime rates quoted in The City of New York,
New York by the appropriate number of substitute banks or trust companies
organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America,
or any state thereof, each having total equity capital of at least U.S.
$500,000,000 and being subject to supervision or examination by a federal or
state
8
authority, selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the
Company) to quote such rate or rates; provided, however, that if the banks or
trust companies selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent (after
consultation with the Company) are not quoting as mentioned in this sentence,
the Prime Rate determined with respect to such Prime Rate Interest
Determination Date shall be the Prime Rate determined with respect to the
immediately preceding Prime Rate Interest Determination Date or, in the case
of the first Prime Rate Interest Determination Date, the Initial Interest Rate
specified above. The "Reuters Screen USPRIME1 Page" means the display
designated as page "USPRIME1" on the Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or
such other page as may replace the USPRIME1 page on that service for the
purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States
banks).
Determination of Treasury Rate. If an Interest Rate Basis for this Note is
the Treasury Rate, as indicated above, the Treasury Rate determined with
respect to the applicable Interest Determination Date (a "Treasury Rate
Interest Determination Date") shall be the rate for the most recent auction of
direct obligations of the United States ("Treasury Bills") having the Index
Maturity specified above, as such rate is published in H.15(519), under the
heading "U.S. Government Securities--Treasury Bills--auction average
(investment)" or, if not so published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Calculation Date relating to such Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date,
the auction average rate (expressed as a bond equivalent rounded, if
necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, on the
basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily
basis) as otherwise announced by the United States Department of the Treasury.
In the event that the results of the auction of Treasury bills having the
Index Maturity specified above are not published or announced as described
above by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Calculation Date, or if no
such auction is held in a particular week, then the Treasury Rate for such
Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date shall be calculated by the
Calculation Agent and shall be a yield to maturity (expressed as a bond
equivalent rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a
percentage point, on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable,
and applied on a daily basis) of the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary,
to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) of the secondary
market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such
Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United
States government securities dealers (which, unless otherwise specified above,
may include an affiliate of the Calculation Agent or a selling agent or an
underwriter hereof) selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with
the Company), for the issue of Treasury Bills with a remaining maturity
closest to the Index Maturity specified above; provided, however, that if the
dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as
mentioned in this sentence, the Treasury Rate determined with respect to such
Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date shall be the Treasury Rate
determined with respect to the immediately preceding Treasury Rate Interest
Determination Date or, in the case of the first Treasury Rate Interest
Determination Date, the Initial Interest Rate specified above.
Determination of CMT Rate. If an Interest Rate Basis for this Note is the
CMT Rate, as indicated above, the CMT Rate determined with respect to the
applicable Interest Determination Date (a "CMT Rate Interest Determination
Date") shall be the rate that appears on the Designated CMT Telerate Page (as
defined below) under the caption "....Treasury Constant Maturities ... Federal
Reserve Board Release H.15(519)... Monday Approximately 3:45 p.m.," under the
column for the Designated CMT Maturity Index (as defined below) for (i) such
CMT Rate Interest Determination Date, if the Designated CMT Telerate Page is
7055, or (ii) the week or the month, as applicable, ended immediately
preceding the week in which such CMT Rate Interest Determination Date occurs,
if the Designated CMT Telerate Page is 7052. In the event such rate is not
displayed on the applicable page by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Calculation Date pertaining to such CMT Rate Interest Determination Date, the
CMT Rate for such CMT Rate Interest Determination Date will be the treasury
constant maturity rate on such CMT Rate Interest Determination Date for the
Designated CMT Maturity Index as published in H.15(519) under the heading
"Treasury Constant Maturities." If by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the
Calculation Date pertaining to such CMT Rate Interest Determination Date such
rate is not published in H.15(519), the CMT Rate for such CMT Rate Interest
Determination Date will be the treasury constant maturity rate for the
Designated CMT Maturity Index (or other United States treasury rate for the
Designated CMT Maturity Index if the treasury constant maturity rate is not
published) with respect to such date as published by
9
either the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or the United
States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be
comparable to the rate previously displayed on the Designated CMT Telerate
Page or published in H.15(519). If such rate is not so published by 3:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the Calculation Date pertaining to such CMT Rate
Interest Determination Date, then the CMT Rate for such CMT Rate Interest
Determination Date will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be a
yield to maturity, based on the arithmetic mean (rounded, if necessary, to the
nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point) of the secondary market
offered rates as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such CMT
Rate Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United States
government securities dealers (which may include an affiliate of the
Calculation Agent) (each, a "Reference Dealer") in The City of New York
selected by the Calculation Agent (such three Reference Dealers to be selected
from a pool of five Reference Dealers selected by the Calculation Agent (after
consultation with the Company), with the Reference Dealers providing the
highest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the highest) and the
lowest quotation (or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest) being
eliminated), for the most recently issued direct noncallable fixed rate
obligations of the United States ("Treasury Notes") with an original maturity
of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining term to
maturity of not less than such Designated CMT Maturity Index minus one year.
If the Calculation Agent is unable to obtain three such Treasury Note
quotations, the CMT Rate for such CMT Rate Interest Determination Date shall
be calculated by the Calculation Agent and will be a yield to maturity based
on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates as of
approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on such CMT Rate Interest
Determination Date of three Reference Dealers in The City of New York (such
three Reference Dealers to be selected from a pool of five References Dealers
selected by the Calculation Agent (after consultation with the Company), with
the Reference Dealers providing the highest quotation (or, in the event of
equality, one of the highest) and the lowest quotation (or, in the event of
equality, one of the lowest) being eliminated) for Treasury Notes with an
original maturity of the number of years that is the next highest to the
Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining term to maturity closest to the
Designated CMT Maturity Index and in an amount of at least $100 million. If at
least three (but not five) of such Reference Dealers are quoting as described
above, then the CMT Rate will be based on the arithmetic mean of the offer
side prices obtained as provided in the preceding sentence and neither the
highest nor the lowest of such quotes shall be eliminated; provided however,
that if at least three Reference Dealers selected by the Calculation Agent
(after consultation with the Company), are not quoting as described in this
sentence, the CMT Rate determined with respect to such CMT Rate Interest
Determination Date shall be the CMT Rate determined with respect to the
immediately preceding CMT Rate Interest Determination Date or, in the case of
the first CMT Rate Interest Determination Date, the Initial Interest Rate. If
two Treasury Notes with an original maturity as described in the second
preceding sentence have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the
Designated CMT Maturity Index, the Calculation Agent will obtain from the
Reference Dealers selected in the manner described quotations for the Treasury
Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity. "Designated CMT Telerate
Page" means the display on the Dow Xxxxx Markets Limited (or any successor
service) on the page specified above for the purpose of displaying "Treasury
Constant Maturities" as reported in H.15(519) (or any other page as may
replace such page on such service for the purpose of displaying "Treasury
Constant Maturities" as reported in H.15(519)). If no such page is specified
above, the Designated CMT Telerate Page shall be 7052. "Designated CMT
Maturity Index" means the original period to maturity of the U.S. Treasury
securities (either 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 20 or 30 years) specified above with
respect to which the CMT Rate will be calculated. If no such maturity is
specified, the Designated CMT Maturity Index shall be 2 years.
The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance
with the foregoing on or before each Calculation Date. All acts taken by the
Calculation Agent under the Calculation Agency Agreement dated as of ,
1998, between the Company and The Bank of New York (the "Calculation Agent"),
as the Calculation Agent referred to above, shall be deemed to have been taken
by the Calculation Agent solely in its capacity as an agent of the Company and
shall not create or imply any obligation to, or any agency or trust
relationship with, the beneficial owners or Holder hereof.
At the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation Agent shall provide to
the Holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined,
the interest rate which shall become effective as of the next Interest Reset
Date. Any such calculation shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive and
binding for all purposes.
