This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company of the series hereinafter specified, all issued or to be issued under and pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2006, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 8, 2006 (both together herein called the “Indenture”), between the Company and X.X. Xxxxxx Trust Company, National Association, a national banking association, 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 description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the Holders of the Securities. This Note is one of a Series of Securities of the Company designated as the 5.90% Senior Notes due 2016 (the “Notes”), initially limited in aggregate principal amount of $600,000,000, subject to the issuance of additional Notes as provided in the Indenture. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture.

If any interest payment date, maturity date or redemption date of this Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, payment will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and no interest will accrue for the period from and after the interest payment date, maturity date or redemption date, as the case may be, to the next succeeding Business Day. As used in this Note, the term “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York are authorized or obligated by or pursuant to law, regulation or executive order to close.

The Indenture contains provisions for the defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of the Notes or certain covenants set forth in the Indenture applicable to the Notes upon compliance by the Company of certain conditions set forth therein, which provisions apply to this Note.

This Note is redeemable in whole at any time or in part, from time to time, at the option of the Company (an “Optional Redemption”), at a make whole redemption price (the “Optional Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of:

(i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date, and

(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not including any portion of the payment of interest accrued as of the date of redemption) discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 15 basis points, plus accrued interest thereon to the date of redemption.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual 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 for such redemption date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the Notes.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (2) if the Company obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealers” means (1) Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co. and X.X. Xxxxxx Securities Inc. and their successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer (“Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute another nationally recognized investment banking firm that is a Primary Treasury Dealer, and (2) at the option of the Company, additional Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the Company, 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 Company by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.

Any redemption pursuant to the preceding paragraph will be made at the Optional Redemption Price upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior notice before the redemption date to the Holders. If the Notes are only partially redeemed by the Company pursuant to an Optional Redemption, the Notes will be redeemed by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and in accordance with the Indenture. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes of this series for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.

If an Event of Default, with respect to the Notes shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of this Note may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect set forth in the Indenture.

The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or

of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes subject to the limitations set forth in the Indenture. It is also provided in the Indenture that, with respect to certain defaults or Events of Default regarding the Securities of any series, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of such series may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities of such series waive any such past default or Event of Default and its consequences. The preceding sentence shall not, however, apply to a default in the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes. Any such 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 or not 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 obligations of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, and any premium and interest on, this Note in the manner and at the respective times herein provided.

The Notes are issuable in registered form without coupons in denominations of $2,000 and any multiple of $2,000 at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York, and in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, but without the payment of any service charge, Notes may be exchanged for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other authorized denominations.

There is no sinking fund for the retirement of the Notes.

Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note at the office or agency of the Trustee in the City of New York, a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations for an equal aggregate principal amount will be issued to the transferee in exchange therefor, subject to the limitations provided in the Indenture, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

Prior to due presentment for registration or transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, or the Trustee may treat the registered Holder hereof as the owner of this Note (whether or not this Note shall be overdue), for the purpose of receiving payment of the principal hereof and premium, if any, and subject to the provisions on the face hereof, interest hereon, the Notes and for all other purposes, and neither the Company, nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company, or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

No recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement contained in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Note, or because of any indebtedness evidenced thereby, shall be had against any past, present or future stockholder, employee, officer or director, as such, of the Company, or of any predecessor or successor, either directly or through the Company, or any predecessor or successor, under any rule of law, statute or constitutional provision or by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable proceeding or otherwise, all such liability being expressly waived and released by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof.

This Note is the senior unsecured and unsubordinated obligation of the Company and will rank on a parity with all other senior unsecured unsubordinated indebtedness of the Company, including any other Securities issued under the Indenture.

This Security is a Global Security within the meaning of the Indenture and is registered in the name of the Depositary or a nominee of the Depositary. This Security is exchangeable for Securities registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited circumstances as permitted by the Indenture and may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary.
