CREATION OF SERIES C NOTES
Section 2.01 Creation of the Series C Notes. There is hereby created
------------------------------
a new series of Securities to be issued under the Indenture and this Second
Supplemental Indenture designated as "Medium-Term Notes, Series C" (the "Series
C Notes").
The Series C Notes shall constitute a single series of Securities
under the Indenture and shall be in the forms of Fixed Rate Note or Floating
Rate Note attached hereto as Exhibit A and Exhibit B, respectively.
Section 2.02 Particulars of the Series C Notes. In accordance with
---------------------------------
Section 301 of the Indenture, the Series C Notes shall have the following terms
(the numbered clauses set forth below corresponding to the numbered subsections
of said Section 301):
1. The title of the Notes of the series is "Medium-Term Notes, Series
C".
2. The limit upon the aggregate principal amount of the Series C
Notes which may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture (except for
Series C Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or
in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Series C Notes pursuant to Section 304,
305, 306, 906 or 1107 of the Indenture) is $300,000,000. Subject to the
foregoing, the aggregate principal amount of the Series C Notes to be issued and
sold from time to time shall be as agreed to by an Agent and the Company as
described in the Distribution Agreement, dated March 1, 1999, among the
Company and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx & Co., Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx
Incorporated and Xxxxxxx, Sachs & Co. (the "1999 Distribution Agreement"). The
Company will notify the Trustee of such aggregate principal amount, as well as
the other terms and provisions thereof, in accordance with the Administrative
Procedures (the "Administrative Procedures") attached as Annex II to the 1999
Distribution Agreement.
3. Interest payments in respect of Series C Notes will be in an
amount equal to the interest accrued from and including the immediately
preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or
duly made available for payment (or from and including the Original Issue Date
(as defined herein), if no interest has been paid or duly made available for
payment) to but excluding the applicable Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as
the case may be. Interest shall be payable with respect to a Series C Note to
the Person in whose name such Series C Note is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for each Interest Payment Date, provided,
however, that interest payable at Maturity will be payable to the person to whom
principal shall be payable. The first payment of interest on any Series C Note
originally issued between a Regular Record Date and the related Interest Payment
Date will be made on the
3
Interest Payment Date immediately following the next succeeding Regular Record
Date to the Holder on such next succeeding Regular Record Date.
4. The date on which the principal of each of the Series C Notes is
payable shall be any Business Day from nine months to thirty years from the date
of issuance agreed to and established on behalf of the Company by any two of the
President, any Vice President, the Treasurer, the Controller and any Assistant
Treasurer (the "Authorized Officers") from time to time pursuant to the 1999
Distribution Agreement and the Administrative Procedures and shall be set forth
in a related pricing supplement (each, a "Pricing Supplement") to the Prospectus
dated March____, 1999 (the "Prospectus") relating to the Series C Notes and in
the Series C Notes.
5. Each of the Series C Notes shall bear interest either at a fixed
rate, in which event the attached form of Fixed Rate Note shall be utilized, or
at a floating rate, in which event the attached form of Floating Rate Note shall
be utilized. Unless otherwise specified in the applicable Floating Rate Note,
the floating rate of interest may be calculated by reference to the Commercial
Paper Rate, the Prime Rate, LIBOR, the Treasury Rate, the CD Rate or the Federal
Funds Rate, as set forth in the attached form of Floating Rate Note (each, a
"Base Rate"), plus or minus a "Spread" and/or multiplied by a Spread Multiplier,
in each case as and to the extent set forth in the applicable Floating Rate Note
and Pricing Supplement. The rate (fixed or floating) at which each of the Series
C Notes shall bear interest shall be determined and established by any two
Authorized Officers of the Company from time to time pursuant to the
Administrative Procedures and shall be set forth in a Pricing Supplement to the
Prospectus and in the applicable Series C Notes. Such rate shall also be the
rate at which interest shall accrue on any overdue principal and premium and (to
the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) on
any overdue installment of interest. Each interest-bearing Series C Note will
bear interest from the date of issuance of such Series C Note (the "Original
Issue Date") at the rate per annum, in the case of a Fixed Rate Note, or
pursuant to the interest rate formula, in the case of a Floating Rate Note, in
each case as set forth in such Series C Note and the applicable Pricing
Supplement, until the principal thereof is paid or made available for payment.
Unless otherwise indicated in the applicable Series C Note and Pricing
Supplement, the "Regular Record Date" with respect to any Fixed Rate Note and
any Floating Rate Note shall be the date (whether or not a Business Day) 15
calendar days prior to the related Interest Payment Date.
Except as otherwise set forth in the Prospectus for the Series C
Notes, the applicable Pricing Supplement or the applicable Series C Note,
interest on the Series C Notes shall be payable, in the case of Fixed Rate
Notes, semi-annually on April 10 and October 10 in each year; in the case of
Floating Rate Notes which reset daily, weekly, or monthly, on the third
Wednesday of each month or on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and
December of each year (as specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement and in
such Floating Rate Note); in the case of Floating Rate Notes which reset
quarterly, on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each
year; in the case of Floating Rate Notes which reset semi-annually, on the third
Wednesday of the two months of each year specified in the applicable Pricing
Supplement and in such Floating Rate Note; and in the case of Floating Rate
Notes which reset annually, on the third Wednesday of the month of each year
specified in the applicable Pricing Supplement and in
4
such Floating Rate Note (each, an "Interest Payment Date"); and in each case, at
Maturity with respect to the principal then maturing. If any Interest Payment
Date or the Maturity of a Fixed Rate Note falls on a day that is not a Business
Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest to be made
on such day need not be made on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding
Business Day as if made on the date such payment was due, and no interest will
accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest
Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be, to the date of such payment on the
next succeeding Business Day. If an Interest Payment Date for any Floating Rate
Note (other than an Interest Payment Date at Maturity) falls on a day that is
not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the next
succeeding day that is a Business Day, and no interest will accrue on the amount
so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date to the date
of such payment on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if
the Base Rate on a Floating Rate Note is LIBOR and such next succeeding Business
Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date will
be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day. If the Maturity of a
Floating Rate Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the required
payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest need not be made on such
day, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date
such payment was due, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the
period from and after such Maturity to the date of such payment on the next
succeeding Business Day. As used herein, "Business Day" means any day other than
a Saturday or Sunday or any other day on which banks in The City of New York are
generally authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close, and with
respect to Floating Rate Notes as to which LIBOR is an applicable Base Rate, is
also a London Business Day. As used herein, "London Business Day" means any day
on which dealings in deposits in United States dollars are transacted in the
London interbank market.
6. The place or places where the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on Series C Notes, if issued in certificated form, shall be payable
and where the Series C Notes, if issued in certificated form, are to be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, shall be at the offices
and agencies of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of
Manhattan in The City of New York, which shall be the Corporate Trust Office of
the Trustee, or at such other location selected by the Company, agreed to by the
Trustee and consistent with the Indenture (a "Place of Payment"). Payments of
the principal (and premium, if any) and interest due with respect to Series C
Notes issued in book-entry form will be made by the Company through the Trustee
to The Depository Trust Company, or other depositary selected by the Company,
consistent with procedures agreed to by the Company and such depositary.
Payments of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest due at Maturity
with respect to any Series C Note, if issued in certificated form, will be made
in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of such Series C
Note (and, in the case of any repayment on an Optional Repayment Date, upon
submission of a duly completed election form in accordance with the provisions
described below) at the Corporate Trust Office or other Place of Payment,
provided, however, that such Series C Note is presented to the Trustee or other
-------- -------
Paying Agent in time for the Trustee or other Paying Agent to make such payments
in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payments of interest
other than at Maturity with respect to such Series C Note will be made at the
Corporate Trust Office; provided, however, that the payment of such interest may
-------- -------
be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the
5
Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder of $10,000,000 or more in aggregate
principal amount of such Series C Notes, if issued in certificated form, having
the same Interest Payment Dates will be entitled to receive interest payments
(other than at Maturity) by wire transfer of immediately available funds if
appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the
Trustee not less than 15 calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment
Date (any such wire transfer instructions received by the Trustee shall remain
in effect until revoked by such Holder).
7. The Series C Notes are not redeemable by the Company prior to
Maturity unless otherwise specified pursuant to the Administrative Procedures
and set forth in the related Pricing Supplement to the Prospectus, and unless a
Redemption Commencement Date and an Initial Redemption Percentage are
specified in the Series C Notes. Such redemption of any Series C Note may be
made in whole or in part at the discretion of the Company, upon not less than 30
nor more than 60 calendar days' notice, provided that if such redemption could
result in a Series C Note remaining Outstanding in a denomination of less than
the applicable minimum denomination, such Series C Note shall be redeemed in
whole. The Series C Notes, if provided for in an applicable Pricing Supplement
and in the Series C Notes, will be subject to repayment at the option of the
Holders thereof, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days' notice, in
accordance with the terms of such Series C Notes on their respective optional
repayment date, if any, as agreed upon by the Company and the purchasers thereof
at the time of sale (each, an "Optional Repayment Date"). If no Optional
Repayment Date is indicated with respect to a Series C Note, such Note will not
be repayable at the option of the Holder thereof prior to its Stated Maturity.
8. Unless otherwise specified pursuant to the Administrative
Procedures and set forth in the related Pricing Supplement to the Prospectus,
there is no obligation of the Company to redeem or purchase the Series C Notes
pursuant to any sinking fund or analogous provision, or at the option of a
Holder thereof.
9. The Series C Notes will be denominated in, and payments of
principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, in respect thereof will be
made in, United States dollars. Each Series C Note will be issued in fully
registered book-entry form or certificated form and the denominations in which
the Series C Notes shall be issuable are $1,000 and any amount in excess thereof
which is an integral multiple of $1,000.
10. No covenants, agreements or warranties, other than those set forth
in the Original Indenture and this Second Supplemental Indenture, shall apply to
the Series C Notes.
11. Section 403 of the Indenture shall apply to the Series C Notes.
12. Section 1101 of the Indenture shall apply to the Series C Notes.
13. Upon declaration of acceleration of the Maturity of the Series C
Notes pursuant to Section 502 of the Indenture, the entire principal amount of
the Series C Notes (other than Discount Notes) shall be payable.

HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES, INC., a corporation duly organized and
existing under the laws of Hawaii (hereinafter called "Company", which term
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to),
for value 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 to pay interest thereon from the
Original Issue Date specified above or from the most recent Interest Payment
Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, on the Interest
Payment Date or Dates specified above, commencing with the first such Interest
Payment Date next succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the
Stated Maturity Date (or any Redemption Date or any Optional Repayment Date with
respect to which such option has been exercised, each such Stated Maturity Date,
Redemption Date and Optional Repayment Date being hereinafter referred to as a
"Maturity" with respect to the principal repayable on such date), at the
Interest Rate per annum set forth above, until the principal hereof is paid or
made available for payment, and at the Interest Rate per annum set forth above
on any overdue premium and (to the extent that the payment of such interest
shall be legally enforceable) on any overdue installment of interest; provided,
--------
however, that if such Original Issue Date is after the Regular Record Date and
-------
before the Interest Payment Date immediately following such Regular Record Date,
interest payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date following
the Original Issue Date to the Holder of this Note on the Regular Record Date
with respect to such second Interest Payment Date. Interest on this Note will
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Addendum is attached hereto or
"Other Provisions" apply to this Note as specified above, this Note will be
subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such "Other Provisions."
Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the immediately
preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or
duly made available for payment (or from and including the Original Issue Date
if no interest has been paid or duly made available for payment) to, but
excluding, the applicable Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be.
If any Interest Payment Date or Maturity of this Note falls on a day that is not
a Business Day, the related payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest
to be made on such day need not be made on such day, but may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day as if made on the date such payment was due, and no
interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after such
Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be, to the date of such
payment on the next succeeding Business Day. The interest so payable, and
punctually paid or duly made available for payment, on any Interest Payment Date
will, as provided in such Indenture, 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 each Interest Payment Date, which date
2
(whether or not a Business Day), shall be 15 calendar days next preceding each
such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest payable at Maturity
will be payable to the Person to whom the principal hereof will be payable. Any
such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease
to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid
to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is
registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of
such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be
given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 calendar days prior to such Special
Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent
with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Notes of this
series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange,
all as more fully provided in said Indenture. As used herein, "Business Day"
means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or any other day on which banks in
The City of New York are generally authorized or obligated by law or executive
order to close.
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company (herein called the "Securities", and the series thereof to which this
Note belongs being herein called the "Notes"), issued and to be issued in one or
more series under an Indenture dated as of October 15, 1988, as supplemented by
a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 1, 1999 (as so supplemented,
hereinafter called the "Indenture"), between the Company and Citibank, N.A., 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 Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series designated above.
The Notes of this series may be issued from time to time at varying maturities
(from nine months to thirty years from the Original Issue Date specified above)
and interest rates and in an aggregate principal amount up to $300,000,000.
Payments of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest due with
respect to this Note, if issued in book-entry form, will be made by the Company
through the Trustee to The Depository Trust Company, or other depositary
selected by the Company, consistent with procedures agreed to by the Company and
such depositary. Payments of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest
due at Maturity with respect to this Note, if issued in certificated form, will
be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of such
Note (and, in the case of any repayment on an Optional Repayment Date, upon
submission of a duly completed election form in accordance with the provisions
described herein) at the Corporate Trust Office or the Trustee or other Paying
Agent, provided, however, that this Note is presented to the Trustee or other
-------- -------
Paying Agent in time for the Trustee or other Paying Agent to make such payments
in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payments of interest
other than at Maturity with respect to this Note, if issued in certificated
form, will be made at the Corporate Trust Office; provided, however, that the
-------- -------
payment of such interest may be made at the option of the Company by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder of
$10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes issued in
certificated form having
3
the same Interest Payment Dates will be entitled to receive interest payments
(other than at Maturity) by wire transfer of immediately available funds if
appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received in writing by the
Trustee not less than 15 calendar days prior to the applicable Interest Payment
Date (any such wire transfer instructions received by the Trustee to remain in
effect until revoked in writing by such Holder).
This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless
otherwise specified in this Note in accordance with the provisions of the
following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the
Stated Maturity Date.
If a Redemption Commencement Date and an Initial Redemption
Percentage are specified in this Note, this Note will be subject to redemption
at the option of the Company prior to the Stated Maturity Date on any date on or
after the Redemption Commencement Date specified in this Note, in whole or from
time to time in part in increments of $1,000 or the minimum authorized
denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof will be at
least $1,000 or such minimum authorized denomination), at the Redemption Price
together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption
(each, a "Redemption Date"), on notice given no less than 30 nor more than 60
calendar days prior to the Redemption Date and in accordance with the provisions
of the Indenture. The "Redemption Price" will initially be the Initial
Redemption Percentage specified in this Note (as adjusted by the Annual
Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) multiplied by the unpaid
principal amount of this Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage
will decline at each anniversary of the Redemption Commencement Date by the
Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified in this Note until the
Redemption Price is equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be redeemed.
In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor
for the unredeemed portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this
Note will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and
surrender hereof.
If one or more Optional Repayment Dates are specified in this Note,
this Note will be subject to repayment by the Company at the option of the
Holder hereof prior to the Stated Maturity Date on the Optional Repayment
Date(s) specified in this Note, in whole or in part in increments of $1,000 or
the minimum authorized denomination (provided that any remaining principal
amount hereof will be at least $1,000 or such minimum authorized denomination),
at a repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be repaid,
together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for repayment
(each, a "Repayment Date"). For this Note to be repaid, this Note must be
received, together with the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment"
duly completed, by the Trustee at its corporate trust office not less than 30
nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the Repayment Date. Exercise of such
repayment option by the Holder hereof will be irrevocable. In the event of
repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unrepaid
portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note will be issued
in the name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
If this Note is a Discount Note as specified herein,
the amount payable to the Holder of this Note in the event of redemption,
repayment or acceleration of maturity of this Note will be equal to the sum of
(i) the Issue Price specified in this Note
4
(increased by any accruals of the Discount) and, in the event of any redemption
of this Note (if applicable), multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage
(as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) and
(ii) any unpaid interest on this Note accrued from the Original Issue Date to
the Redemption Date, Optional Repayment Date or date of acceleration of
maturity, as the case may be. The difference between the Issue Price and 100% of
the principal amount of this Note, if a Discount Note, is referred to herein as
the "Discount."
For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as
of any Redemption Date, Optional Repayment Date or date of acceleration of
maturity of this Note, such Discount will be accrued so as to cause the yield on
the Note to be constant. The constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day
month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the
Initial Period, corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment
Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal
to the initial interest rate applicable to this Note and an assumption that the
maturity of this Note will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original
Issue Date to the initial Interest Payment Date (the "Initial Period") is
shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the
yield for an entire compounding period will be accrued. If the Initial Period
is longer than the compounding period, then such period will be divided into a
regular compounding period and a short period, with the short period being
treated as provided in the preceding sentence.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of (a)
the entire indebtedness of this Note and (b) certain restrictive covenants, in
each case upon compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth
therein, which provisions apply to this Note.
If an Event of Default with respect to Notes of this series shall
occur and be continuing, the principal of the Notes 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 right 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 66-2/3% 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 Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer
hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such
consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
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
5
unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on
this Note at the times, places and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein and herein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the
Security Register upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at
the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and
premium, if any) and interest on this Note 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 Notes of this
series of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
Unless otherwise set forth above, the Notes of this series are
issuable only in registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of
$1,000 and any amount in excess thereof that is an integral multiple of $1,000.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and
herein set forth, Notes of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Notes of this series of like tenor of a different authorized
denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer
or exchange, but the Company 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 Note 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 Note is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Note is overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by
the Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit
under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
This Note will for all purposes be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

HAWAIIAN ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES, INC. a corporation duly organized and
existing under the laws of Hawaii (hereinafter called the "Company", which term
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to),
for value 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 to pay interest thereon from the
Original Issue Date specified above or from the most recent Interest Payment
Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, periodically on each
Interest Payment Date, commencing with the first such Interest Payment Date next
succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Stated Maturity
Date (or any Redemption Date or any Optional Repayment Date with respect to
which such option has been exercised, each such Stated Maturity Date, Redemption
Date and Optional Repayment Date being hereinafter referred to as a "Maturity"
with respect to the principal repayable on such date), at the rate of interest
to be determined in accordance with the following provisions (the "Floating
Interest Rate"), until the principal hereof is paid or made available for
payment, and at the Floating Interest Rate on any overdue premium and (to the
extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) on any
overdue installment of interest; provided, however, that if such Original Issue
-------- -------
Date is after a Regular Record Date and before the Interest Payment Date
immediately following such Regular Record Date, interest payments will
2
commence on the second Interest Payment Date following the Original Issue Date
to the Holder of this Note on the Regular Record Date with respect to such
second Interest Payment Date.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Addendum is attached hereto or
"Other Provisions" apply to this Note as specified above, this Note will be
subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such "Other Provisions."
Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the immediately
preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which such interest has been paid
or duly made available for payment (or from and including the Original Issue
Date if no interest has been paid or duly made available for payment) to, but
excluding, the applicable Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as the case may be
(the "Interest Period"). If an Interest Payment Date (other than at Maturity)
falls on a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be
postponed to the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest will accrue on
the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date
to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Interest Payment Date;
provided, however, that if the Base Rate is LIBOR and such next succeeding
Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment
Date will be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day. If any
Maturity falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of
principal, premium, if any, and interest need not be made on such day, but may
be made on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the date such payment
was due, and no interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and
after such Maturity to the date of such payment on the next succeeding Business
Day. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly made available for
payment, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, 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 each Interest
Payment Date, which date (whether or not a Business Day) shall be 15 calendar
days next preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that interest
payable at Maturity will be payable to the Person to whom the principal hereof
will be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for
will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and
may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note (or one or more
Predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record
Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee,
notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 calendar days
prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful
manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on
which the Notes of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be
required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture. As used
herein, "Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday or Sunday or any
other day on which banks in The City of New York are generally authorized or
obligated by law or executive order to close, and with respect to Notes as to
which LIBOR is an applicable Base Rate, is also a London Business Day. As used
herein, "London Business Day" means any day on which dealings in deposits in
United States dollars are transacted in the London interbank market.
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company (herein called the "Securities", and the series thereof to which this
Note belongs being herein called the "Notes"), issued and to be issued in one or
more series under an Indenture dated as of October 15, 1988 as supplemented by a
Second Supplemental
3
Indenture dated as of March 1, 1999 (as so supplemented, herein called the
"Indenture"), between the Company and Citibank, N.A., 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 Notes
and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be authenticated and
delivered. This Note is one of the series designated above. The Notes of this
series may be issued from time to time at varying maturities (from nine
months to thirty years from the Original Issue Date specified above) and
interest rates and in an aggregate principal amount up to $300,000,000.
Payments of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest due with
respect to this Note, if issued in book-entry form, will be made by the Company
through the Trustee to The Depository Trust Company, or other depositary
selected by the Company, consistent with procedures agreed to by the Company and
such depositary. Payments of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest
due at Maturity with respect to this Note, if issued in certificated form, will
be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and surrender of such
Note (and, in the case of any repayment on an Optional Repayment Date, upon
submission of a duly completed election form in accordance with the provisions
described herein) at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or other Place of
Payment, provided, however, that this Note is presented to the Trustee or other
-------- -------
Paying Agent in time for the Trustee or other Paying Agent to make such payments
in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Payments of interest
other than at Maturity with respect to this Note, if issued in certificated
form, will be made at the Corporate Trust Office; provided, however, that the
-------- -------
payment of such interest may be made at the option of the Company by check
mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder of
$10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of Notes, if issued in
certificated form, having the same Interest Payment Dates will be entitled to
receive interest payments (other than at Maturity) by wire transfer of
immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been
received in writing by the Trustee not less than 15 calendar days prior to the
applicable Interest Payment Date (any such wire transfer instructions received
by the Trustee to remain in effect until revoked in writing by such Holder).
This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless
otherwise specified in this Note in accordance with the provisions of the
following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the
Stated Maturity Date.
If a Redemption Commencement Date and an Initial Redemption
Percentage are specified in this Note, this Note will be subject to redemption
at the option of the Company prior to the Stated Maturity Date on any date on or
after the Redemption Commencement Date specified in this Note, in whole or from
time to time in part in increments of $1,000 or the minimum authorized
denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof will be at
least $1,000 or such minimum authorized denomination), at the Redemption Price
together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for redemption
(each, a "Redemption Date"), on notice given no less than 30 nor more than 60
calendar days prior to the Redemption Date and in accordance with the provisions
of the Indenture. The "Redemption Price" will initially be the Initial
Redemption Percentage specified in this Note (as adjusted by the Annual
4
Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) multiplied by the unpaid
principal amount of this Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage
will decline at each anniversary of the Redemption Commencement Date by the
Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified in this Note until the
Redemption Price is equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be redeemed.
In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor
for the unredeemed portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this
Note will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and
surrender hereof.
If one or more Optional Repayment Dates are specified herein, this
Note will be subject to repayment by the Company at the option of the Holder
hereof prior to the Stated Maturity Date on the Optional Repayment Date(s)
specified in this Note, in whole or in part in increments of $1,000 or the
minimum authorized denomination (provided that any remaining principal amount
hereof will be at least $1,000 or such minimum authorized denomination), at a
repayment price equal to 100% of the unpaid principal amount to be repaid,
together with unpaid interest accrued thereon to the date fixed for repayment
(each, a "Repayment Date"). For this Note to be repaid, this Note must be
received, together with the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment"
duly completed, by the Trustee at its corporate trust office not less than 30
nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the Repayment Date. Exercise of such
repayment option by the Holder hereof will be irrevocable. In the event of
repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note of like tenor for the unrepaid
portion hereof and otherwise having the same terms as this Note will be issued
in the name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
If this Note is a Discount Note as specified herein, the amount
payable to the Holder of this Note in the event of redemption, repayment or
acceleration of maturity of this Note will be equal to the sum of (i) the Issue
Price specified in this Note (increased by any accruals of the Discount) and, in
the event of any redemption of this Note (if applicable), multiplied by the
Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual Redemption Percentage
Reduction, if applicable) and (ii) any unpaid interest on this Note accrued from
the Original Issue Date to the Redemption Date, Optional Repayment Date or date
of acceleration of maturity, as the case may be. The difference between the
Issue Price and 100% of the principal amount of this Note, if a Discount Note,
is referred to herein as the "Discount. "
For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as
of any Redemption Date, Optional Repayment Date or date of acceleration of
maturity of this Note, such Discount will be accrued so as to cause the yield on
the Note to be constant. The constant yield will be calculated using a 30-day
month, 360-day year convention, a compounding period that, except for the
Initial Period, corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment
Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), a coupon rate equal
to the initial interest rate applicable to this Note and an assumption that the
maturity of this Note will not be accelerated. If the period from the Original
Issue Date to the initial Interest Payment Date (the "Initial Period") is
shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the
yield for an entire compounding period will be accrued. If the Initial Period
is longer than the compounding period, then such period will be divided into a
regular compounding period and a short period, with the short period being
treated as provided above.
5
Unless otherwise indicated herein, this Note will bear interest at a
rate determined by reference to an interest rate basis (the "Base Rate"), which
may be adjusted by a Spread and/or Spread Multiplier. The applicable Base Rate
may be: (a) the Commercial Paper Rate (if applicable, this Note being a
"Commercial Paper Rate Note"), (b) the Prime Rate (if applicable, this Note
being a "Prime Rate Note"), (c) LIBOR (if applicable, this Note being a "LIBOR
Note"), (d) the Treasury Rate (if applicable, this Note being a "Treasury Rate
Note"), (e) the CD Rate (if applicable, this Note being a "CD Rate Note"), (f)
the Federal Funds Rate (if applicable, this Note being a "Federal Funds Rate
Note") or (g) such other Base Rate or interest rate formula as is set forth
herein. If the applicable Base Rate is LIBOR, this Note will also specify the
Designated LIBOR Page, as such term is defined below.
Unless otherwise specified herein, the interest rate with respect to
this Note will be calculated by reference to the specified Base Rate or Rates
(a) plus or minus the Spread, if any, and/or (b) multiplied by the Spread
Multiplier, if any. The "Spread" is the number of basis points (one one-
hundredth of a percentage point), if any, specified herein to be added to or
subtracted from the Base Rate for this Note to calculate the interest rate for
this Note, and the "Spread Multiplier" is the percentage, if any, specified
herein to be multiplied by the Base Rate (or by the Base Rate increased or
decreased by the Spread) to calculate the interest rate for this Note. The
"Index Maturity" for this Note is the period to maturity of the instrument or
obligation from which the Base Rate is calculated.
Unless otherwise specified in this Note, the interest rate with
respect to each Base Rate will be determined in accordance with the applicable
provisions below. Except as set forth in this Note, the interest rate in effect
on each day shall be (i) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest
rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date immediately preceding such
Interest Reset Date or (ii) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the
interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date immediately
preceding the most recent Interest Reset Date.
The rate of interest on this Note will be reset daily, weekly,
monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually (each, an "Interest Reset Date").
The Interest Reset Date will be, in the case of Notes that reset daily, each
Business Day; in the case of Notes (other than Treasury Rate Notes) which reset
weekly, the Wednesday of each week; in the case of Treasury Rate Notes which
reset weekly, the Tuesday of each week; in the case of Notes which reset
monthly, the third Wednesday of each month; in the case of Notes which reset
quarterly, the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each
year; in the case of Notes which reset semi-annually, the third Wednesday of two
months of each year as specified above; and in the case of Notes which reset
annually, the third Wednesday of one month of each year as specified above;
provided, however, that (a) the interest rate in effect from the Original Issue
-------- -------
Date to the first Interest Reset Date with respect to a Note will be the Initial
Interest Rate (as set forth in this Note) and (b) the interest rate in effect
for the ten days immediately prior to Maturity will be that in effect on the
tenth day preceding such Maturity. If any Interest Reset Date for this Note
would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date
will be postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that
in the case of a Note as to which LIBOR is an applicable Base Rate, if such
Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset
Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day.
6
Except as provided below, interest will be payable in the case of
Notes which reset: (i) daily, weekly or monthly, on the third Wednesday of each
month or on the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each
year, as specified above; (ii) quarterly, on the third Wednesday of March, June,
September and December of each year; (iii) semiannually, on the third Wednesday
of the two months of each year specified above; and (iv) annually, on the third
Wednesday of the month of each year specified above (each, an "Interest Payment
Date") and, in each case, at Maturity with respect to the principal repayable on
such date.
The Interest Determination Date pertaining to an Interest Reset Date
for a Commercial Paper Rate Note (the "Commercial Paper Rate Interest
Determination Date"), for a Prime Rate Note (the "Prime Rate Interest
Determination Date"), for a CD Rate Note (the "CD Rate Interest Determination
Date") and for a Federal Funds Rate Note (the "Federal Funds Rate Interest
Determination Date") will be the second Business Day preceding such Interest
Reset Date. The Interest Determination Date for a LIBOR Note (the "LIBOR
Interest Determination Date") will be the second London Business Day preceding
such Interest Reset Date. The Interest Determination Date pertaining to an
Interest Reset Date for a Treasury Rate Note (the "Treasury Interest
Determination Date") will be the day of the week in which such Interest Reset
Date falls on which day Treasury bills (as defined below) would normally be
auctioned by the U.S. Department of the Treasury. Treasury bills are generally
sold at auction on Monday of each week, unless that day is a legal holiday, in
which case the auction is usually 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 so held on the preceding Friday, such Friday will be the
Treasury Interest Determination Date pertaining to the Interest Reset Date
occurring in the next succeeding week. If an auction date with respect to a
Treasury Rate Note shall fall on any Interest Reset Date, then such Interest
Reset Date shall instead be the Business Day next succeeding such auction date.
The Interest Determination Date pertaining to a Note the interest rate of which
is determined by reference to two or more Base Rates will be the most recent
Business Day that is at least two Business Days prior to the applicable Interest
Reset Date for this Note on which each Base Rate is determinable. Each Base
Rate will be determined as of the applicable Interest Determination Date, and
the applicable interest rate will take effect on the applicable Interest Reset
Date.
Notwithstanding the other provisions herein, the daily Floating
Interest Rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if
any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified in this Note and,
in addition, the Floating Interest Rate shall in no event be higher than the
maximum rate permitted by New York or Hawaii law, whichever is lower, as the
same may be modified by United States law of general application.
Except as otherwise provided herein, all percentages resulting from
any calculations on this Note will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-
thousandth of a percentage point (with five one-millionths of a percentage point
being rounded up, e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or
.0987655)), and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation on
this Note will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one half cent being rounded
up).

Accrued interest is calculated by multiplying the principal amount of
this Note by an accrued interest factor. The interest factor is computed by
adding the interest factor calculated for each day in the Interest Period. The
interest factor (expressed as a decimal) for each such day is computed by
dividing the interest rate (expressed as a decimal) applicable to such date by
360, in the case of Commercial Paper Rate Notes, Prime Rate Notes, LIBOR Notes,
CD Rate Notes or Federal Funds Rate Notes, or by the actual number of days in
the year, in the case of Treasury Rate Notes. The interest factor for Notes for
which the interest rate is determined by reference to two or more Base Rates
will be calculated in each period in the same manner as if only the lowest,
highest or average of the applicable Base Rate applied, as specified above or in
the Addendum hereto.
The Calculation Agent (which shall be the Trustee unless otherwise
specified above) shall calculate the Floating Interest Rate on this Note on or
before each Calculation Date and, upon request, provide to Holders the Floating
Interest Rate then in effect and, if calculated, to become in effect. The
Calculation Agent's determination of any Floating Interest Rate will be final
and binding in the absence of manifest error. The Calculation Date, if
applicable, pertaining to any Interest Determination Date will be the earlier
and (i) the tenth calendar day after such Interest Determination Date, or, if
such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day and (ii) the
Business Day preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or Maturity, as the
case may be.
Unless otherwise provided in this Note, the Calculation Agent shall
determine each Base Rate in accordance with the following provisions:
Determination of Commercial Paper Rate
The "Commercial Paper Rate" with respect to each Interest Reset Date
will be determined by the Calculation Agent on the Calculation Date and will be
the Money Market Yield (as defined below) as of the Commercial Paper Rate
Interest Determination Date next preceding such Interest Reset Date of the rate
for commercial paper having the Index Maturity specified above, as such rate
shall be published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System in
"Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Interest Rates," or any successor
publication (such publication being hereinafter called "H.15(519)"), under the
heading "Commercial Paper-Nonfinancial". In the event that such rate is not
published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related Calculation
Date, then the Commercial Paper Rate with respect to such Interest Reset Date
will be the Money Market Yield on the applicable Commercial Paper Rate Interest
Determination Date of the rate for commercial paper of the Index Maturity
specified in this Note 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 (such publication being
hereinafter called "Composite Quotations"), under the heading "Commercial Paper"
(with an Index Maturity of one month or three months being deemed to be an
equivalent to an Index Maturity of 30 days or 90 days, respectively). If by
3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not yet
published in either H.15(519) or Composite Quotations, then the Commercial Paper
Rate will be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the Money Market
Yield of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates as of 11:00 A.M., New York
City time, on the applicable Commercial Paper Rate
8
Interest Determination Date of three leading dealers of commercial paper in The
City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent, in its discretion, for
commercial paper of the specified Index Maturity placed for an industrial issuer
whose bond rating is "Aa," or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized
statistical rating organization. If the dealers selected as aforesaid by the
Calculation Agent are not quoting offered rates as described in the preceding
sentence, the Commercial Paper Rate with respect to such Interest Reset Date
will be the Commercial Paper Rate in effect on such Interest Determination Date.
"Money Market Yield" shall be a yield (expressed as a percentage)
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 applicable Interest Reset Period.
Determination of Prime Rate
The "Prime Rate" with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be
determined by the Calculation Agent on the Calculation Date and will be the rate
as of the Prime Rate Interest Determination Date next preceding such Interest
Reset Date as published in H. 15(519) under the heading "Bank Prime Loan". In
the event that such rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City
time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Prime Rate with respect to such
Interest Reset Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest
publicly announced by each bank that appears on such Prime Rate Interest
Determination Date on the display designated as page "USPRIME1" on the Reuters
Monitor Money Rates Service (or any successor 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) ("Reuters Screen
USPRIME1 Page") 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 as of the applicable Prime Rate
Interest Determination Date, the Prime Rate with respect to such Interest Reset
Date will be the arithmetic mean of the prime rates or base lending rates
(quoted on the basis of the actual number of days in the year divided by a 360-
day year) as of the close of business on such Prime Rate Interest Determination
Date as furnished in The City of New York by the major money center banks, if
any, that have provided such quotations and by a reasonable number of substitute
banks or trust companies to obtain four such prime rate quotations, provided
such substitute banks or trust companies are organized and doing business under
the laws of the United States, or any state thereof, each having total equity
capital of at least $500 million and being subject to supervision or examination
by federal or state authority, selected by the Calculation Agent to provide such
rate or rates. If the banks or trust companies selected as aforesaid by the
Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as described in the preceding sentence,
the Prime Rate with respect to such Interest Reset Date will be the Prime Rate
in effect on such Prime Rate Interest Determination Date.
9
Determination of LIBOR
"LIBOR" with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be determined by
the Calculation Agent on the Calculation Date in accordance with the following
provisions:
(i) With respect to a LIBOR Interest Determination Date, LIBOR will be
either: (a) if "LIBOR Reuters" is specified in this Note, the arithmetic mean of
the offered rates (unless the Designated LIBOR Page by its terms provides only
for a single rate, in which case such single rate shall be used) for deposits in
U.S. dollars having the Index Maturity specified in this Note, commencing on the
applicable Interest Reset Date, that appear (or, if only a single rate is
required as aforesaid, appears) on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 A.M.,
London time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date, or (b) if "LIBOR
Telerate" is specified in this Note or if neither "LIBOR Reuters" nor "LIBOR
Telerate" is specified in this Note as the method for calculating LIBOR, the
rate for deposits in U.S. dollars having the Index Maturity specified in this
Note, commencing on such Interest Reset Date, that appears on the Designated
LIBOR Page as of 11:00 A.M., London time, on such LIBOR Interest Determination
Date. If fewer than two such offered rates so appear, or if no such rate so
appears where the Designated LIBOR Page provides only for a single rate, LIBOR
on such LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be determined in accordance with
the provisions described in subparagraph (ii) below.
(ii) With respect to a LIBOR Interest Determination Date on which fewer
offered rates appear than are required in subparagraph (i) above, the
Calculation Agent will request the principal London offices of each of four
major reference banks in the London interbank market as selected by the
Calculation Agent, to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation
for deposits in U.S. dollars for the period of the Index Maturity specified in
this Note, commencing on the applicable Interest Reset Date to prime banks in
the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on such
LIBOR Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is
representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such
time. If at least two such quotations are so provided, then LIBOR on such LIBOR
Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If
fewer than two such quotations are so provided, then LIBOR on such LIBOR
Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at
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 selected by the
Calculation Agent for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, having
the Index Maturity specified in this Note and in a principal amount that is
representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such
time. If the banks so selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting rates
as described in the preceding sentence, LIBOR determined as of such LIBOR
Interest Determination Date will be LIBOR in effect under the Note on such LIBOR
Interest Determination Date.
"Designated to LIBOR Page" means (a) if "LIBOR Reuters" is specified
in this Note, the display in the Reuter Monitor Money Rates Service (or any
successor service) on the page specified in this Note (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 U.S. dollars, or (b) if "LIBOR Telerate" is
specified in this Note or neither "LIBOR Reuters" nor "LIBOR Telerate" is
specified in this Note as the method for calculating LIBOR, the display on the
Dow Xxxxx
10
Telerate Service (or any successor service) on the page specified in
this Note (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 U.S.
dollars.
Determination of Treasury Rate
The "Treasury Rate" with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be
determined by the Calculation Agent on the Calculation Date and will be the rate
for the auction held on the Treasury Rate Interest Determination Date next
preceding such Interest Reset Date of direct obligations of the United States
("Treasury bills") having the Index Maturity specified in this Note as published
in H.15(519) under the heading "Treasury bills-auction average (investment)".
If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate is not
yet published in H.15(519), then the Treasury Rate shall be the auction average
rate (expressed as a bond equivalent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days,
as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) as otherwise reported by the U.S.
Department of the Treasury. In the event that the results of the auction of
Treasury bills having the Index Maturity designated in this Note are not
published or reported as provided above by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on
such Calculation Date or if no such auction is held on the applicable Treasury
Rate Interest Determination Date, then the Treasury Rate will be calculated by
the Calculation Agent and shall be a yield to maturity (expressed as a bond
equivalent rounded as aforesaid) of the arithmetic mean 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 selected by the Calculation Agent, in its
discretion, for the issue of Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to
the Index Maturity designated in this Note. If the dealers selected as
aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting bid rates as described in the
preceding sentence, the Treasury Rate with respect to such Interest Reset Date
will be the Treasury Rate in effect under the Note on such Treasury Rate
Interest Determination Date.
Determination of CD Rate
The "CD Rate" with respect to each Interest Reset Date will be
determined by the Calculation Agent on the Calculation Date and will be the rate
as of the CD Rate Interest Determination Date next preceding such Interest Reset
Date for negotiable United States dollar certificates of deposit having the
Index Maturity specified in this Note as published in H.15(519) under the
heading "CDs (Secondary Market)". In the event that such rate is not published
prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then
the CD Rate with respect to such Interest Reset Date shall be the rate on such
CD Rate Interest Determination Date for negotiable United States dollar
certificates of deposit having the Index Maturity specified in this Note as
published in the Composite Quotations under the heading "Certificates of
Deposit". If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such
rate is not published in either H.15(519) or Composite Quotations, the CD Rate
with respect to such Interest Reset Date shall be calculated by the Calculation
Agent and shall be the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offered rates, as
of 10:00 A.M., New York City time, on such CD Rate Interest Determination Date,
of three leading nonbank dealers in negotiable United States dollar certificates
of deposit in The City of New York selected by the Calculation Agent for
negotiable United States certificates of deposit of major United States money
center banks with a remaining
11
maturity closest to the Index Maturity specified in this Note in United States
dollars. If the dealers selected as aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not
quoting rates as described in the preceding sentence, the CD Rate with respect
to such Interest Reset Date will be the CD Rate in effect under the Note on such
CD Rate Interest Determination Date.
Determination of Federal Funds Rate
The "Federal Funds Rate" with respect to each Interest Reset Date will
be determined by the Calculation Agent on the Calculation Date and will be the
rate as of the Federal Funds Interest Determination Date next preceding such
Interest Reset Date for United States dollar federal funds as published in H.
15(519) under the heading "Federal Funds (Effective)". In the event that such
rate is not published prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant
Calculation Date, then the Federal Funds Rate with respect to such Interest
Reset Date will be the rate on such Federal Funds Interest Determination Date as
published in Composite Quotations under the heading "Federal Funds/Effective
Rate". If by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Calculation Date such rate
is not published in either H. 15(519) or Composite Quotations, the Federal Funds
Rate with respect to such Interest Reset Date shall be calculated by the
Calculation Agent and shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates, as of 9:00
A.M., New York City time, on the applicable Federal Funds Interest Determination
Date, for the last transaction in overnight United States federal funds arranged
by three leading brokers of United States federal funds transactions in The City
of New York selected by the Calculation Agent. If the brokers selected as
aforesaid by the Calculation Agent are not quoting rates as described in the
preceding sentence, the Federal Funds Rate with respect to such Interest Reset
Date will be the Federal Funds Rate in effect under the Note on such Federal
Funds Interest Determination Date.
