bound by the provisions of the

the Holders of the Securities of each such series; provided, however, that no
such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holders of each
Security of such series so affected thereby, (i) extend the fixed maturity of
any Security or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest
thereon or reduce the principal thereof or the time during which premium is
payable thereon or change the method of computing the amount of principal
thereof or make the principal thereof or any premium or interest thereon payable
in any coin or currency other than that provided in the Securities, or (ii)

consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note (unless revoked as provided in the
Indenture) shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders and owners of this Note and any Notes which may be issued in exchange or
substitution herefor, irrespective of whether any notation thereof is made upon
this Note or such other Notes.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the
Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Note at the
place, at the respective times, at the rate, and in the coin or currency herein
prescribed.
The Notes may not be redeemed prior to maturity. The Notes are unsecured

and treat the registered Holder hereof as the absolute owner of this Note
(whether or not this Note shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of

registrar for the Notes or the Trustee), for the purpose of receiving payment
hereof or on account hereof, and for all other purposes (subject to the
provisions of the first paragraph hereof), and neither the Company nor the
Trustee nor any paying agent nor any registrar for the Notes shall be
2
affected by any notice to the contrary.

interest on this Note, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect
hereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of
the Company in the Indenture, or any indenture supplemental thereto, or in any
Note, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall
be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such,
past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either
directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether by virtue
of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any
assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance
hereof and as a condition of and as part of the consideration for the issue
hereof, expressly waived and released.
Terms used herein which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings
