            WHEREAS the entry into this Supplemental Indenture by the parties
hereto is in all respects authorized by the provisions of the Indenture; and

                                  ARTICLE II

                                   The DECS

            SECTION 2.01.  Title and Terms.

            There is hereby created under the Indenture a series of Debt
Securities known and designated as the "7 5/8% Exchangeable Notes Due May 15,
1999" of the Company to be issued from time to time. The aggregate principal
amount of DECS that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is
limited to $260,826,567.38, except for DECS authenticated and delivered upon
reregistration of, transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other DECS
pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306, 1106 or 1308 of the Indenture.

            The Stated Maturity for payment of principal of the DECS shall be
May 15, 1999 and the DECS shall bear interest at the rate of 7 5/8% per annum,
from May 13, 1996 or the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has
been paid or duly provided for, payable quarterly in arrears on February 15, May
15, August 15 and November 15 of each year (commencing August 15, 1996), to the
persons in whose names the DECS (or any predecessor securities) are registered
at the close of business on the last day of the calendar month immediately
preceding such interest payment date, until principal thereof is paid or made
available for payment.

            The DECS shall be issuable in denominations of $26.625 and any
integral multiple thereof.

            The DECS shall not be issued as Discount Securities.

            The DECS shall be initially issued in the form of a Global Security
and the Depositary for the DECS shall be the Depository Trust Company, New York,
New York.
            The DECS shall be issuable as Registered Securities only, without

coupons.


                                     5

<PAGE>


            The Company shall not be obligated to pay any additional amount on
the DECS in respect of taxes, except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.06 and
3.02.

            The form of DECS attached hereto as Exhibit A is hereby adopted,
pursuant to Section 1101(6) of the Indenture, as a form of Debt Securities of a
series that consists of DECS.

            The DECS shall be mandatorily exchangeable as provided in Section
2.02.

            SECTION 2.02.  Exchange at Maturity.

            Subject to Section 2.04(b), at Maturity the principal amount of each
DECS shall be mandatorily exchanged by the Company into a number of shares of
FSA Holdings Common Stock at the Exchange Rate; provided, however, that,
pursuant to Section 2.03, no fractional shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock
shall be issued. The Holders of the DECS shall be responsible for the payment of
any and all brokerage costs upon the subsequent sale of such shares. The Company
may, at its option, in lieu of delivering shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock,
deliver cash in an amount (calculated to the nearest 1/100th of a dollar per
DECS or, if there is not a nearest 1/100th of a dollar, then to the next higher
1/100th of a dollar) equal to the product of the number of shares of FSA
Holdings Common Stock otherwise deliverable on the date of Maturity multiplied
by the Maturity Price; provided, however, that if such option is exercised, the
Company shall deliver cash with respect to all, but not less than all, of the
shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock that would otherwise be deliverable, except
to those Holders with respect to whom the Company has determined delivery of
cash may violate applicable state law and to whom it will deliver shares of FSA
Holdings Common Stock as provided herein. In determining the amount of cash
deliverable in exchange for the DECS in lieu of shares of FSA Holdings Common
Stock pursuant to the prior sentence hereof, if more than one DECS shall be
surrendered for exchange at one time by the same Holder, the amount of cash
which shall be delivered upon exchange shall be computed on the basis of the
aggregate number of DECS so surrendered at Maturity.


                                     6

<PAGE>


            SECTION 2.03.  No Fractional Shares.

            If more than one DECS shall be surrendered for exchange pursuant to
Section 2.02 at one time by the same Holder, the number of full shares of FSA

Holdings Common Stock which shall be delivered upon such exchange, in whole or
in part, as the case may be, shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate
number of DECS surrendered. No fractional shares or scrip representing
fractional shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock shall be issued or delivered upon
any exchange pursuant to Section 2.02 of any DECS. In lieu of any fractional
share of FSA Holdings Common Stock which, but for the immediately preceding
sentence, would otherwise be deliverable upon such exchange, the Company,
through any applicable Paying Agent, shall make a cash payment in respect of
such fractional interest in an amount equal to the value of such fractional
shares at the Maturity Price. The Company shall, upon such exchange of any DECS,
provide cash to any applicable Paying Agent in an amount equal to the cash
payable with respect to any fractional shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock
deliverable upon such exchange, and the Company shall retain such fractional
shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock.

            SECTION 2.04.  Adjustment of Exchange Rate.

            (a) Adjustment for Distributions, Reclassifications, etc. The
Exchange Rate shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as follows:

                 (i)  If FSA Holdings shall:

                  (A) pay a dividend or make a distribution, in either case,
            with respect to the FSA Holdings Common Stock in shares of such
            stock;

                  (B) subdivide or split the outstanding shares of FSA Holdings
            Common Stock into a greater number of shares;

                  (C) combine the outstanding shares of FSA Holdings Common
            Stock into a smaller number of shares; or

                  (D) issue by reclassification (other than a reclassification
            upon a Reorganization Event, as defined in paragraph (b) of this
            Section) of shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock any shares of common
            stock of FSA Holdings;

      then, in any such event, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted by adjusting
      each of the Share Components of the Exchange Rate in effect immediately
      prior to such event so that a Holder of any DECS shall be entitled to
      receive, upon mandatory exchange pursuant to Section 2.02 of the principal
      amount of such DECS at Maturity pursuant to either Share Component of the
      Exchange Rate, the number of shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock (or, in
      the case of a reclassification referred to in clause (D) of this sentence,
      the number of shares of other common stock of FSA Holdings issued pursuant
      thereto) which such Holder of such DECS would have owned or been entitled
      to receive immediately following such event had such DECS been exchanged
      pursuant 


                                     7

<PAGE>


      to either Share Component of the Exchange Rate immediately prior
      to such event or any record date with respect thereto. Each such
      adjustment shall become effective at the opening of business on the
      Business Day next following the record date for determination of Holders
      of FSA Holdings Common Stock entitled to receive such dividend or
      distribution in the case of a dividend or distribution and shall become
      effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a
      subdivision, split, combination or reclassification. Each such adjustment
      shall be made successively.

                (ii) If FSA Holdings shall, after the date hereof, issue rights
      or warrants to all holders of FSA Holdings Common Stock entitling them to
      subscribe for or purchase shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock (other than
      rights to purchase FSA Holdings Common Stock pursuant to a plan for the
      reinvestment of dividends or interest) at a price per share less than the
      current market price of FSA Holdings Common Stock (determined
      for purposes of this paragraph (a)(ii) as the average Closing Price per
      share of FSA Holdings Common Stock on the 20 Trading Days immediately
      prior to the date such rights or warrants are issued; provided, however,
      that if there are not 20 Trading Days for the FSA Holdings Common Stock
      occurring later than the 60th calendar day immediately prior to, but not
      including, such date, such current market price shall be determined as the
      market value per share of FSA Holdings Common Stock as of such date as
      determined by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm
      retained for this purpose by the Company), then in each case the Exchange
      Rate shall be adjusted by multiplying each of the Share Components of the
      Exchange Rate in effect immediately prior to the date of issuance of such
      rights or warrants, by a fraction, of which the numerator shall be the
      number of shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock outstanding on the date of
      issuance of such rights or warrants, immediately prior to such issuance,
      plus the number of additional shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock offered
      for subscription or purchase pursuant to such rights or warrants, and of
      which the denominator shall be the number of shares of FSA Holdings Common
      Stock outstanding on the date of issuance of such rights or warrants,
      immediately prior to such issuance, plus the number of additional shares
      of FSA Holdings Common Stock which the aggregate offering price of the
      total number of shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock so offered for
      subscription or purchase pursuant to such rights or warrants would
      purchase at such current market price (calculated as the average Closing
      Price per share of FSA Holdings Common Stock on the 20 Trading Days
      immediately prior to the date such rights or warrants are issued;
      provided, however, that if there are not 20 Trading Days for the FSA
      Holdings Common Stock occurring later than the 60th calendar day
      immediately prior to, but not including, such date, such current market
      price shall be determined as the market value per share of such FSA
      Holdings Common Stock as of such date as determined by a nationally
      recognized independent investment banking firm retained for this purpose
      by the Company), which shall be determined by multiplying such total
      number of shares by the exercise price of such rights or warrants and
      dividing the product so obtained by such current market price. Such
      adjustment shall become effective at the opening of business on the
      Business Day next following the record date for the determination of
      stockholders entitled to receive such rights or warrants. To the extent
      that shares of 



                                     8

<PAGE>

      FSA Holdings Common Stock are not delivered after the expiration of such
      rights or warrants, the Exchange Rate shall be readjusted to the Exchange
      Rate which would then be in effect had such adjustments for the issuance
      of such rights or warrants been made upon the basis of delivery of only
      the number of shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock actually delivered. Each
      such adjustment shall be made successively.

                (iii) If FSA Holdings shall pay a dividend or make a
      distribution to all holders of FSA Holdings Common Stock of evidences of
      its indebtedness or other assets (excluding any dividends or distributions
      referred to in clause (A) of paragraph (a)(i) of this Section, any shares
      of common stock issued pursuant to a reclassification referred to in
      clause (D) of paragraph (a)(i) of this Section above or any ordinary
      periodic cash dividends that do not constitute Extraordinary Cash
      Dividends) or shall issue to all holders of FSA Holdings Common Stock
      rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any of its
      securities (other than those referred to in paragraph (a)(ii) of this
      Section), then in each such case, the Exchange Rate shall be adjusted by
      multiplying each of the Share Components of the Exchange Rate in effect on
      the record date mentioned below, by a fraction of which the numerator
      shall be the current market price per share of the FSA Holdings Common
      Stock on the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to
      receive such dividend or distribution (such current market price being
      determined for purposes of this paragraph (a)(iii) as the average Closing
      Price per share of FSA Holdings Common Stock on the 20 Trading Days
      immediately prior to such record date; provided, however, that if there
      are not 20 Trading Days for the FSA Holdings Common Stock occurring later
      than the 60th calendar day immediately prior to, but not including, such
      record date, such current market price shall be determined as the market
      value per share of such FSA Holdings Common Stock as of such record date
      as determined by a nationally recognized independent investment banking
      firm retained for this purpose by the Company), and of which the
      denominator shall be such current market price per share of FSA Holdings
      Common Stock less the fair market value (as determined by the Board of
      Directors of the Company, whose determination shall be conclusive, and
      described in a resolution adopted with respect thereto) as of such record
      date of the portion of the assets or evidences of indebtedness so
      distributed or of such subscription rights or warrants applicable to one
      share of FSA Holdings Common Stock. Each such adjustment shall become
      effective on the opening of business on the Business Day next following
      the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive
      such dividend or distribution. Each such adjustment shall be made
      successively.

                (iv) Any shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock issuable in payment
      of a dividend shall be deemed to have been issued immediately prior to the
      close of business on the record date for such dividend for purposes of
      calculating the number of outstanding shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock

      under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section.

                (v) All adjustments to the Exchange Rate shall be calculated to
      the nearest 1/10,000th of a share of FSA Holdings Common Stock (or if
      there is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share to the next lower 1/10,000th
      of a share). No adjustment in the Exchange Rate shall be required unless
      such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one
      percent 


                                     9

<PAGE>

      therein; provided, however, that any adjustments which by reason
      of this paragraph (a)(v) are not required to be made shall be carried
      forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment. If an
      adjustment is made to the Exchange Rate pursuant to paragraphs (a)(i),
      (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of this Section, an adjustment shall also be made to
      the Maturity Price solely to determine which of clauses (a), (b) or (c) of
      the definition of Exchange Rate set forth in Section 1.01 will apply upon
      an exchange at Maturity pursuant to Section 2.02. The required adjustment
      to the Maturity Price shall be made at Maturity by multiplying the
      Maturity Price by the number or fraction determined under paragraphs
      (a)(i), (a)(ii) or (a)(iii) of this Section by which the then existing
      Exchange Rate was multiplied to adjust such rate. In the case of the
      reclassification of any shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock into any
      shares of common stock of FSA Holdings other than FSA Holdings Common
      Stock, such shares of common stock shall be deemed shares of FSA Holdings
      Common Stock solely to determine the Maturity Price and to apply the
      Exchange Rate at Maturity. Each such adjustment to the Exchange Rate and
      the Maturity Price shall be made successively. This paragraph (a)(v) shall
      be so used to adjust the definition of Maturity Price only as such term is
      used for the first time in each of subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c) of the
      definition of Exchange Rate set forth in Section 1.01.

                (vi) For purposes of the foregoing, the term "Extraordinary Cash
      Dividend" shall mean, with respect to any consecutive 365-day period, any
      cash dividend with respect to FSA Holdings Common Stock the amount of
      which, together with the aggregate amount of all other such cash dividends
      on the FSA Holdings Common Stock occurring in such 365-day period, exceeds
      on a per share basis 10% of the average of the Closing Prices per share of
      the FSA Holdings Common Stock over such 365-day period, and for purposes
      of applying the formula set forth in clause (iii) above, the fair market
      value of such dividends being calculated pursuant to such clause (iii)
      shall be equal to (x) the aggregate amount of such cash dividend together
      with the amounts of such other cash dividends occurring in such period
      minus (y) the aggregate amount of such other cash dividends occurring in
      such period for which a prior adjustment in the Exchange Rate was
      previously made under this paragraph (a). In making the determinations
      required by the foregoing sentence, the amount of cash dividends paid on a
      per share basis shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the occurrence
      during such period of any event described in this paragraph (a).


            (b) Adjustment for Consolidation, Merger or Other Reorganization
Event. In the event of (i) any consolidation or merger of FSA Holdings, or any
surviving entity or subsequent surviving entity of FSA Holdings (an "FSA
Holdings Successor"), with or into another entity (other than a merger or
consolidation in which FSA Holdings is the continuing corporation and in which
the FSA Holdings Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the merger or
consolidation is not exchanged for cash, securities or other property of FSA
Holdings or another corporation), (ii) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance
to another corporation of the property of FSA Holdings, or any FSA Holdings
Successor, as an entirety or substantially as an entirety, (iii) any statutory
exchange of securities of FSA Holdings or any FSA Holdings Successor with
another corporation (other than in connection with a 

                                     10

<PAGE>

merger or acquisition) or (iv) any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of FSA
Holdings or any FSA Holdings Successor (any such event, a "Reorganization
Event"), each Holder of DECS will receive at Maturity, in lieu of shares of FSA
Holdings Common Stock, as required by Section 2.02, cash in an amount equal to
(a) if the Transaction Value is greater than or equal to the Threshold
Appreciation Price, $32.48, multiplied by the Transaction Value, (b) if the
Transaction Value is less than the Threshold Appreciation Price but greater than
the Initial Price, the Initial Price and (c) if the Transaction Value is less
than or equal to the Initial Price, the Transaction Value. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in lieu of delivering cash as provided above, the Company may at its
option deliver an equivalent value of securities or other property received in
such Reorganization Event, determined in accordance with clause (b) or (c) of
the definition of Transaction Value set forth in Section 1.01, as applicable. If
the Company elects to deliver securities or other property, Holders of DECS will
be responsible for the payment of any and all brokerage and other transaction
costs upon the sale of such securities or other property. The kind and amount of
securities into which the DECS shall be exchangeable after consummation of such
transaction shall be subject to adjustment as described in paragraph (a) of this
Section following the date of consummation of such transaction.

            SECTION 2.05.  Notice of Adjustments and Certain Other Events.

            (a) Whenever the Exchange Rate is adjusted as herein provided, the
Company shall:

                (i) forthwith compute the adjusted Exchange Rate in accordance
      with Section 2.04 and prepare a certificate signed by an officer of the
      Company setting forth the adjusted Exchange Rate, the method of
      calculation thereof in reasonable detail, and the facts requiring such
      adjustment and upon which such adjustment is based, which certificate
      shall be conclusive, final and binding evidence of the correctness of the
      adjustment, and file such certificate forthwith with the Trustee; and

                (ii) within 10 Business Days following the occurrence of an
      event that permits or requires an adjustment to the Exchange Rate pursuant
      to Section 2.04(a) (each, a "Dilution Event") or a Reorganization Event
      that permits or requires a change in the consideration to be received by

      Holders pursuant to Section 2.04(b) (or, in either case, if the Company is
      not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so
      aware), provide written notice to the Trustee and to the Holders of the
      outstanding DECS of the occurrence of such Dilution Event or
      Reorganization Event including a statement in reasonable detail setting
      forth the method by which any adjustment to the Exchange Rate or change in
      the consideration to be received was determined and setting forth the
      revised Exchange Rate or consideration, as the case may be, per DECS,
      provided, that, in respect of any adjustment to the Maturity Price, such
      notice need only disclose the factor by which the Maturity Price is to be
      multiplied pursuant to Section 2.04(a)(v) in order to determine which
      clause of the definition of the Exchange Rate will apply at Maturity, it
      being understood that, until Maturity, the Exchange Rate itself cannot be
      determined.


                                     11

<PAGE>

            (b) In case at any time while any of the DECS are outstanding the
Company receives notice that:

                (i) FSA Holdings shall declare a dividend (or any other
      distribution) on or in respect of the FSA Holdings Common Stock to which
      Section 2.04(a)(i) or (ii) shall apply (other than any cash dividends and
      distributions, if any, paid from time to time by FSA Holdings that do not
      constitute Extraordinary Cash Dividends);

                (ii) FSA Holdings shall authorize the issuance to all holders of
      FSA Holdings Common Stock of rights or warrants to subscribe for or
      purchase shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock or of any other subscription
      rights or warrants;

                (iii) there shall occur any conversion or reclassification of
      FSA Holdings Common Stock (other than a subdivision or combination of
      outstanding shares of such FSA Holdings Common Stock) or any
      consolidation, merger or reorganization to which FSA Holdings is a party
      and for which approval of any stockholders of FSA Holdings is required, or
      the sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of FSA
      Holdings; or

                (iv) there shall occur the voluntary or involuntary dissolution,
      liquidation or winding up of FSA Holdings;

then the Company shall promptly cause to be delivered to the Trustee and any
applicable Paying Agent and filed at the office or agency maintained for the
purpose of exchange of DECS at Maturity in the Borough of Manhattan, in The City
of New York by the Trustee (or any applicable Paying Agent), and shall promptly
cause to be mailed to the Holders of DECS at their last addresses as they shall
appear upon the registration books of the Security Registrar, at least 10 days
before the date hereinafter specified (or the earlier of the dates hereinafter
specified, in the event that more than one is specified), a notice stating (x)
the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend,

distribution or grant of rights or warrants, or, if a record is not to be taken,
the date as of which the holders of FSA Holdings Common Stock of record to be
entitled to such dividend, distribution or grant of rights or warrants are to be
determined, or (y) the date, if known by the Company, on which such
reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer, dissolution,
liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective.

            (c) On or prior to four Business Days preceding the Stated Maturity
of the DECS, the Company will provide notice to the Holders of record of the
DECS and to the Trustee and will publish a notice in a daily newspaper of
national circulation stating whether the Company will deliver, in accordance
with Section 2.02, FSA Holdings Common Stock or cash (or, in accordance with
Section 2.04(b), cash or any other property or securities) upon the mandatory
exchange of the principal amount of the DECS; provided, however, in the event
the Company intends to deliver cash, the Company shall have the right to require
certification as to the domicile and residency of each beneficial holder of
DECS, as a condition to delivery of such cash.

                                     12

<PAGE>

            SECTION 2.06.  Taxes.

            (a) The Company will pay any and all documentary, stamp, transfer or
similar taxes that may be payable in respect of the transfer and delivery of FSA
Holdings Common Stock pursuant hereto; provided, however, that the Company shall
not be required to pay any such tax which may be payable in respect of any
transfer involved in the delivery of FSA Holdings Common Stock in a name other
than that in which the DECS so exchanged were registered, and no such transfer
or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such transfer
has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax, or has established, to the
satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid.

            (b) The parties hereto hereby agree, and each Holder of a DECS by
its purchase of a DECS hereby agrees:

                (i) to treat, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, each DECS as
      a unit (the "unit characterization") consisting of (A) a debt obligation
      (the "Exchange Note") with a fixed principal amount and issue price equal
      to the principal amount of the DECS, bearing interest at the stated
      interest rate, and with the principal amount unconditionally payable at
      Maturity, and (B) a purchase contract (the "Purchase Contract") pursuant
      to which the Holder agrees to use the principal payment due on the
      Exchange Note to purchase, at Maturity, the FSA Holdings Common Stock to
      which the Holder is entitled to receive at that time (subject to the
      Company's right to deliver cash in lieu of such FSA Holdings Common
      Stock), which treatment will require, among other things, the Holder to
      include in income as interest, in accordance with its method of
      accounting, payments made with respect to the DECS that are denominated as
      interest;

                (ii) in the case of an initial purchase, to allocate the entire
      purchase price of a DECS to the Exchange Note and to allocate no part

      thereof to the Purchase Contract; and

                (iii) to file all U.S. federal, state and local income and
      franchise tax returns consistent with the unit characterization (unless
      required otherwise by an applicable taxing authority).

                                  Covenants

            With respect to the DECS only and for the benefit of only the
Holders thereof, the Company covenants and warrants that upon exchange of a DECS
at Maturity pursuant to the Indenture and this Supplemental Indenture, the
Holder of a DECS shall receive all rights held by the Company in the FSA
Holdings Common Stock for which such DECS is at such time exchangeable pursuant
to this Indenture, free and clear of any and all liens, claims, charges and
encumbrances other than any liens, claims, charges and encumbrances which may
have been placed on any FSA Holdings Common Stock by the prior owner thereof,
prior to the time such FSA Holdings Common Stock was acquired by the Company.
Except as provided in Section 2.06(a), the Company will pay all taxes and
charges with respect to the delivery of FSA Holdings Common Stock delivered in
exchange for DECS hereunder. In addition, the Company further warrants that any
FSA Holdings Common Stock so delivered in exchange for DECS hereunder shall be
free of any transfer restrictions (other than such as are solely attributable to
any Holder's status as an affiliate of FSA Holdings).

            Section 3.02.  Discharge of Indenture.

            With respect to the DECS only and for the benefit of only the
Holders thereof, the Company surrenders all rights and powers conferred on it by
subclause (B) of clause (1) of Section 401 of the Indenture.


                                  ARTICLE IV

ratified and confirmed, and the Indenture, this Supplemental Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto shall be read, taken and construed as one and
the same instrument.

                              __________ DECS (SM)
                    (Debt Exchangeable for Common Stock (SM))

                    7 5/8% Exchangeable Note Due May 15, 1999

                 (Subject to Exchange at Maturity into Shares of
                     Common Stock, Par Value $.01 Per Share,
                 of Financial Security Assurance Holdings Ltd.)

            Salomon Inc, a Delaware corporation (hereinafter called the
"Company", which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede &
Co. or registered assigns, the principal sum of ____________ DOLLARS (or $26.625
for each Debt Exchangeable for Common Stock (each, a "DECS") represented by this
note) on May 15, 1999 (subject to the mandatory exchange provisions at Maturity
described below), and to pay interest (computed on the basis of a 360-

                                    F-1

<PAGE>

day year of twelve 30-day months) on such principal amount from May 13, 1996, or

from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest
has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly on February 15, May 15, August 15
and November 15 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment Date" and,
collectively, the "Interest Payment Dates"), commencing August 15, 1996, at the
rate per annum specified in the title of this note, until the principal hereof
is paid or made available for payment. The interest so payable, and punctually
paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in
said Indenture, be paid to the person in whose name this DECS (or the DECS in
exchange or substitution for which this DECS was issued) is registered at the
close of business on the Regular Record Date (as defined below) for interest
payable on such Interest Payment Date. The Regular Record Date for any interest
payment is the close of business on the last day of the calendar month
immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date, whether or not a
Business Day (as defined below), provided that interest payable at Maturity
shall be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof is payable. In any
case where such Interest Payment Date shall not be a Business Day, then
(notwithstanding any other provision of said Indenture or this DECS) payment of
such interest need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next
succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such date,
and, if such payment is so made, no interest shall accrue for the period from
and after such date. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided
for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on such Regular
Record Date, as the case may be, and may be paid to the person in whose name
this DECS (or the DECS in exchange or substitution for which this DECS was
issued) is registered at the close of business on a record date for the payment
of such interest to be fixed by the Trustee for the DECS, notice whereof shall
be given to Holders of the DECS not less than 10 days prior to such record date,
or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the
requirements of any securities exchange on which the DECS may be listed and not
deemed impracticable by the Trustee, and upon such notice as may be required by
such exchange. At Maturity, the principal amount of this DECS will be
mandatorily exchanged into a number of shares of common stock, par value $.01
per share (the "FSA Holdings Common Stock"), of Financial Security Assurance
Holdings Ltd. ("FSA Holdings") at the Exchange Rate (as defined below). The
"Exchange Rate" is equal to (a) if the Maturity Price (as defined below) is
greater than or equal to $32.48 (the "Threshold Appreciation Price"), 0.8197
shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock per DECS, (b) if the Maturity Price is less
than the Threshold Appreciation Price but is greater than $26.625 (the "Initial
Price"), a fractional share of FSA Holdings Common Stock per DECS so that the
value thereof (determined at the Maturity Price) is equal to the Initial Price
(such fractional share being calculated to the nearest 1/10,000th of a share or,
if there is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share, to the next higher 1/10,000th
of a share) and (c) if the Maturity Price is less than or equal to the Initial
Price, one share of FSA Holdings Common Stock per DECS. ACCORDINGLY, THE VALUE
OF THE FSA HOLDINGS COMMON STOCK TO BE RECEIVED BY HOLDERS OF THE DECS (OR, AS
DISCUSSED BELOW, THE CASH EQUIVALENT THAT MAY BE RECEIVED IN LIEU OF SUCH
SHARES) AT MATURITY WILL NOT NECESSARILY EQUAL THE 

                                    F-2

<PAGE>

PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF SUCH DECS. Any shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock delivered
by the Company to the Holders of the DECS that are not affiliated with FSA

Holdings shall be free of any transfer restrictions and the holders of DECS will
be responsible for the payment of any and all brokerage costs upon the
subsequent sale of such shares. No fractional shares of FSA Holdings Common
Stock will be issued at Maturity as provided in the Indenture. The Company may
at its option, in lieu of delivering shares of FSA Holdings Common Stock,
deliver cash in an amount equal to the value of such number of shares of FSA
Holdings Common Stock at the Maturity Price as provided in the Indenture;
provided, however, that if such option is exercised, the Company shall deliver
cash with respect to all, but not less than all, of the shares of FSA Holdings
Common Stock that would otherwise be deliverable, except to those Holders with
respect to whom the Company has determined delivery of cash may violate
applicable state law and to whom it will deliver shares of FSA Holdings Common
Stock as provided in the Indenture. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) in the
case of certain dilution events, the Exchange Rate will be subject to adjustment
and (ii) in the case of certain reorganization events, the property received by
Holders of DECS at Maturity will be cash or other property, as provided in the
Indenture.

            The "Maturity Price" is defined as the average Closing Price per
share of FSA Holdings Common Stock on the 20 Trading Days immediately prior to
(but not including) the date of Maturity or, under certain circumstances, the
market value per share of FSA Holdings Common Stock as of the date of Maturity
as determined by a nationally recognized independent investment banking firm
retained for this purpose by the Company, as provided in the Indenture. The
"Closing Price" of any security on any date of determination means the closing
sale price (or, if no closing price is reported, the last reported sale price)
of such security (regular way) on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") on
such date or, if such security is not listed for trading on the NYSE on any such
date, as reported in the composite transactions for the principal United States
securities exchange on which such security is so listed, or if such security is
not so listed on a United States national or regional securities exchange, as
reported by the Nasdaq National Market, or, if such security is not so reported,
the last quoted bid price for such security in the over-the-counter market as
reported by the National Quotation Bureau or similar organization. A "Trading
Day" is defined as a day on which the security the Closing Price of which is
being determined (A) is not suspended from trading on any national or regional
securities exchange or association or over-the-counter market at the close of
business and (B) has traded at least once on the national or regional securities
exchange or association or over-the-counter market that is the primary market
for the trading of such security. "Business Day" means any day that is not a
Saturday, a Sunday or a day on which the NYSE or banking institutions or trust
companies in The City of New York, New York are authorized or obligated by law
or executive order to close.

            Interest on this DECS will be payable, and delivery of FSA Holdings
Common Stock (or, at the Company's option, cash in an amount equal to the value
of such FSA Holdings Common Stock) in exchange for the principal amount of this
DECS at Maturity will 

                                    F-3

<PAGE>

be made upon surrender of this DECS, at the office or agency of the Company

maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, New York, and payment of
interest on (and, if the Company elects not to deliver FSA Holdings Common Stock
upon exchange at Maturity, the cash equivalent thereof payable upon exchange for
the principal amount of) this DECS will be made in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts; provided, however, that at the option of the
Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the
person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the register for the
DECS.

or on behalf of the Trustee for this DECS by manual signature, this DECS shall
not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory
for any purpose. "DECS" and "Debt Exchangeable for Common Stock" are service

                  7 5/8% Exchangeable Note due May 15, 1999

               (Subject to Exchange at Maturity into Shares of
                   Common Stock, Par Value $.01 Per Share,
                of Financial Security Assurance Holdings Ltd.)

            This DECS is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes or
other evidences of indebtedness (hereinafter called the "Debt Securities") of
the Company of the series hereinafter specified, which series is limited in
aggregate principal amount to $260,826,567.38, all such Debt Securities issued
and to be issued under an indenture dated as of December 1, 1988, as
supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated September 7, 1990, the
Second Supplemental Indenture thereto dated June 12, 1991, the Third
Supplemental Indenture thereto dated July 1, 1992, the Fourth Supplemental
Indenture thereto dated October 29, 1992, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture
thereto dated December 14, 1993, the Sixth Supplemental Indenture thereto dated
December 29, 1994, the Seventh Supplemental Indenture thereto dated February 1,
1996, and the Eighth Supplemental Indenture thereto dated May 8, 1996 (as so
supplemented and as may be further supplemented from time to time, the
"Indenture") between the Company and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (herein called
the "Trustee", which term includes any successor Trustee under the Indenture),
pursuant to which the Company has designated Citibank, N.A. as Trustee for the
DECS, to which Indenture and all other indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the rights and limitation of rights thereunder
of the Holders of the Debt Securities and of the rights, obligations, duties and
immunities of the Trustee for each series of Debt Securities and of the Company,
and the terms upon which the Debt Securities are and are to be authenticated and
delivered. As provided in the Indenture, the Debt Securities may be issued in
one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate
principal amounts, may be denominated in currencies other than U.S. Dollars,
(including composite currencies), may mature at different times, may bear
interest, if any, at different rates, may be subject to different redemption
provisions, if any, may be subject to different sinking, purchase of analogous
funds, if any, may be subject to different covenants and Events of Default and

of a series of the Debt Securities designated as 7 5/8% Exchangeable Notes Due
May 15, 1999.

                                    R-1

<PAGE>

            The DECS may not be redeemed prior to Stated Maturity and are not
entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund.

            The provisions contained in the Indenture for defeasance and
discharge of the entire principal of all the Debt Securities of any series upon
compliance by the Company with certain conditions set forth therein will not be

applicable to the DECS.

            If an Event of Default with respect to the DECS, as defined in the
Indenture, shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all DECS may be
declared due and payable and therefore will result in the mandatory exchange of
the principal amount thereof for FSA Holdings Common Stock (or, at the Company's
option, cash), all 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 Debt Securities of each series
under the Indenture at anytime by the Company with the consent of the Holders of
not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debt Securities at
the time outstanding of each series to be affected thereby. The Indenture also
contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate
principal amount of the Debt Securities of any series at the time outstanding,
on behalf of the Holders of all the Debt 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 with respect to such
series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this DECS shall be
conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this DECS
and of any DECS issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in
lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent of waiver is made upon this
DECS.

            No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this DECS
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 DECS
at the times, place and rate, and in the manner, herein prescribed.

            As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, this DECS is transferable on the register for the DECS, upon
surrender of this DECS for registration of transfer at the office or agency of
the Company to be maintained for that purpose in The City of New York, New York,
or at any other office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose,
duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Company and the Registrar for the DECS duly executed by, the
Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or
more new DECS, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal
amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. No service
charge shall be made for any such transfer or exchange, but the Company may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge payable in connection with the registration of such transfer or exchange,
other than certain exchanges not involving any transfer.

            Certain terms used in this DECS which are defined in the Indenture
have the meanings set forth therein.

            THIS DECS SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE GOVERNED BY, AND
