Reverse of Note
This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called
the “Securities”), issued and to be issued in one or more series under an Indenture, dated as of
March 12, 2002, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 15, 2003 (as
so supplemented, herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and The Bank of New York
Mellon, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under
the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made
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. This Security is one of the series
designated on the face hereof initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $400,000,000.
The Securities of this series will be redeemable, in whole at any time or in part from
time to time, at the option of the Company at a redemption price equal to the greater of:
| (i) | 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed; or | ||
| (ii) | the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any such portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the date of redemption), discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below), plus 50 basis points, |
plus, in each case, accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, installments of interest on Securities of this series that are due and payable on
interest payment dates falling on or prior to a redemption date will be payable on the interest
payment date to the registered holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date
according to the Indenture.
“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the
Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities of this
series to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection in accordance with customary
financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to
the remaining term of such Securities.
“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (i) the average of
four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and
lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains fewer than four
such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations, or (iii) if only one
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation.
“Quotation Agent” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.
“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (or its affiliates that
are Primary Treasury Dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however,
that if any of
the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a
“Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will
substitute therefore another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (ii) any other Primary Treasury
Dealer selected by it.
“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer
and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for
the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount)
quoted in writing to the trustee by such reference treasury dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the third business day preceding such redemption date.
“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the
semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the
Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the
Comparable Treasury Price of such redemption date.
Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the
redemption date to each registered holder of the Securities to be redeemed. Unless the Company
defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease
to accrue on the Securities of this series or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than
all of the Securities of this series are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be
selected by the Trustee by a method the Trustee deems appropriate.
In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities of
this series and of like tenor for the unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the
Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (l) the entire indebtedness of
this Security or (2) certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this
Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the Indenture.
If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the
manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and
the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the
Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the
time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting
the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the
time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by
the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture
and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any
Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in
2
exchange herefor or in lieu hereof,
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.
As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security
shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the
appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall
have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to
the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the
Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to
institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee
reasonable indemnity and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with
such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of
such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted
by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any
premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture
shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in
the coin or currency, herein prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the
transfer of this Security is registerable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security
for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the
principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing,
and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.
The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
denominations of $5,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the
Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are
exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor
of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

Company or the Security Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the
Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this
Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be
overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.
