Form:  Global Note.

Accrual of Interest:  Accrued interest from the Original Issue 
      Date or from the last date to which interest has been paid 
      or duly provided for with respect to any Note will be cal-
      culated by multiplying the face amount of such Note by an 
      accrued Interest Factor.  This accrued Interest Factor 
      will be computed by adding the Interest Factors calculated 
      for each day from the Original Issue Date or from the last
      date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for 
      up to the date for which accrued interest is being calcu-
      lated.  The "Interest Factor" for any Note for each such 
      day will be computed by dividing the interest rate appli-
      cable to such day by 360, assuming 12 months of 30 days 
      each per annum.

Interest Payment Dates:  Quarterly on the 26th day of each Jan-
      uary, April, July, and October, commencing July 26, 1994,

      ness Day, then interest will be paid on the next succeed-
      ing Business Day.

      Interest payments will include the amount of interest 
      accrued from and including the most recent Interest Pay-
      ment Date to which interest has been paid (or from and 
      including the Original Issue Date) to but excluding the 
      applicable Interest Payment Date, without adjustment for 
      changes in the Interest Payment Date if the scheduled 
      Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day.

Interest Determination Date:  Ten Business Days prior to each 
      Interest Reset Date.

Interest Reset Date:  Quarterly on the 26th day of each Janu-
      ary, April, July, and October, commencing July 26, 1994.

Calculation Date:  The earlier of (i) the fifth Business Day 
      after each Interest Determination Date, or (ii) the Busi-
      ness Day next preceding the applicable Interest Payment 
      Date. 

Rate Cutoff Date:  Not applicable.

Maximum Interest Rate:  Not applicable.

Calculation Agent:  Salomon Brothers Inc

Day Count Convention:  30/360

Other Provisions:

      "Constant Maturity Treasury Rate" means, with respect to 
      any Interest Determination Date, the rate that is pub-
      lished by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve 
      System in "Statistical Release H.15(519), Selected Inter-
      est Rates", or any successor publication of the Board of 
      Governors of the Federal Reserve System ("H.15(519)"),
      under the heading "U.S. Government/Securities/Treasury 
      Constant Maturities", in the Index Maturity specified 
      above.  If the H.15(519) is no longer published, the "Con-
      stant Maturity Treasury Rate" shall be the rate which 
      appears on Telerate Page 7055 (as defined below) (as 
      determined by the Calculation Agent), for the applicable 
      Interest Determination Date opposite the applicable Index 
      Maturity.  If no such rate is set forth, then the Cal-
      culation Agent will contact the Board of Governors of the 
      Federal Reserve System and request the Constant Maturity 
      Treasury Rate, in the applicable Index Maturity, for the
      Interest Determination Date.  If the Board of Governors of 
      the Federal Reserve System does not provide such informa-
      tion by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Calculation 
      Date, then the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate for such 
      Interest Reset Date will be the arithmetic mean of 
      quotations reported by three leading U.S. government secu-
      rities dealers (one of which may be the Calculation
      Agent), according to their written records, with reference 
      to the 3:00 p.m., New York City time, closing bid-side 
      yield quotations for the noncallable U.S. Treasury Note 
      that is nearest in maturity to the Index Maturity, but not 
      less than exactly the Index Maturity, and for the 
      noncallable U.S. Treasury Note that is nearest in maturity 
      to the Index Maturity, and for the noncallable U.S. Trea-
      sury Note that is nearest in maturity to the Index Matur-
      ity, but not more than exactly the Index Maturity, on the 
      Interest Determination Date.  The Calculation Agent shall 
      calculate the Constant Maturity Treasury Rate by interpo-
      lating to the Index Maturity, based on an Actual/Actual 
      day count basis, the yield on the two Treasury Notes 
      selected.  If the Calculation Agent cannot obtain three 
      such adjusted quotations, the Constant Maturity Treasury 
      Rate for such Interest Determination Date will be the
      
<PAGE>
                                    -4-



      arithmetic mean of all such quotations, or if only one 
      such quotation is obtained, such quotation, obtained by 
      the Calculation Agent.  In all events, the Calculation 
      Agent shall continue polling dealers until at least one 
      adjusted yield quotation can be determined.

      "Telerate Page 7055" means the display page designated as 
      page 7055 on the Dow Jones Telerate Service (or such other 
      page as may replace page 7055 on that service for the pur-
      pose of displaying Constant Maturity Treasury Rates).

      "Business Day" means any day, other than a Saturday or 
      Sunday, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which 
      banking institutions are generally authorized or required 
      by law or regulation to close in The City of New York.

      Trustee, Registrar, Authenticating and Paying Agent:  
      Bankers Trust Company (the "Trustee"), under the Indenture 
      dated as of April 15, 1988 as amended and supplemented by 
      the First Supplemental Indenture and Amendment dated 
      March 2, 1994 between the Trustee and CPC International 
      Inc.
