for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & Co., or registered assigns,

<PAGE>
the principal sum of Fifty Million and no one-hundredths Dollar
($50,000,000.00), on the Stated Maturity Date specified above (or any Redemption
Date or Repayment Date, each as defined on the reverse hereof) (each such Stated
Maturity Date, Redemption Date or Repayment Date being hereinafter referred to
as the "Maturity Date" with respect to the principal repayable on such date) and
to pay interest thereon, at the Interest Rate per annum specified above, until
the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment, and (to the
extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the
Default Rate per annum specified above on any overdue principal, premium, if
any, and interest, if any. The Company will pay interest in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date, if any, specified above (each, an "Interest Payment
Date"), commencing with the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the
Original Issue Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date; provided,
however, that, if the Original Issue Date occurs between a Record Date (as
defined below) and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments
will commence on the second Interest Payment Date. Interest on this Note will be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.
Interest on this Note will accrue from, and including, the immediately
preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been or duly provided for
(or from, and including, the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or
duly provided for) to, but excluding, the applicable Interest Payment Date or
the Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an "Interest Payment Period"). The
interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest
Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions described herein, 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 fifteenth calendar day (whether or
not a Business Day, as defined below) immediately preceding such Interest
Payment Date (the "Record Date"); provided, however, that Interest payable on
the Maturity Date will be payable to the person to whom the principal hereof and
premium, if any, hereon shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually
paid or duly provided for ("Defaulted Interest") will forthwith cease to be
payable to the Holder on any Record Date, and shall be paid to the person in
whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a special record
date (the "Special Record Date") for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to
be fixed by a New York affiliate of the Trustee (the "Issuing and Paying Agent")
hereinafter referred to, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this
Note by the Issuing and Paying Agent not less than 10 calendar days prior to
such Special 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 this
Note may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange,
all as more fully provided for in the Indenture.
Payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, in respect
to this Note due on the Maturity Date will be made in immediately available
funds upon presentation and surrender of this Note (and, with respect to any
applicable repayment of this Note, a duly completed election form as
contemplated on the reverse hereof) at the corporate trust office of the Issuing
and Paying Agent, currently The Chase Manhattan Bank, 450 West 33rd Street, 15th
Floor, New York, New York 10001, or, if no paying agent is then appointed to act
with respect to the Notes under the Indenture, at the corporate trust office of
the Trustee maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of
New York. Payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date other than the
Maturity Date will be made by check mailed to the address of the person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register maintained at the
aforementioned office of the Paying Agent or, if no paying agent is then
appointed to act with respect to the Notes under the Indenture, of the Trustee;
provided, however, that a Holder of U.S. $10,000,000 or more in aggregate
principal amount of Notes (whether having identical or different terms and
provisions) will be entitled to receive interest payments on such Interest
Payment Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds if appropriate wire
2
<PAGE>
transfer instructions have been received in writing by the Issuing and Paying
Agent not less than 15 calendar days prior tosuch Interest Payment Date. Any
such wire transfer instructions received by the Issuing and Paying Agent shall
remain in effect until revoked by such Holder.
If any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date falls on a day that
is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, and
interest, if any, shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the
same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was due, and no
interest shall accrue with respect to such payment for the period from and after
such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be, 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, that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which banking institutions
are authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close in The
City of New York.
The Company is obligated to make payments of principal, premium, if
any, and interest, if any, in respect of this Note in United States dollars or
such other currency as is at the time of such payment legal tender for the
payment of public and private debts in the United States of America.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note set
forth on the reverse hereof and, if so specified on the face hereof, in an
Addendum hereto, which further provisions shall have the same force and effect
as if set forth on the face hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Addendum is attached hereto or
"Other/Additional Provisions" apply to this Note as specified above, this Note
shall be subject to the terms set forth in such Addendum or such
"Other/Additional Provisions."
Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by
the Issuing and Paying Agent by manual signature, this Note shall not be
entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any
purpose.

[REVERSE OF NOTE]
HALLIBURTON COMPANY
MEDIUM-TERM NOTE
(Fixed Rate)
This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Debt Securities (the
"Debt Securities") of the Company issued and to be issued under a Second Senior
Indenture, dated as of December 1, 1996, as amended, modified or supplemented by
the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of December 5, 1996, and as further
amended, modified or supplemented from time to time (the "Indenture"), between
the Company and Texas Commerce Bank National Association, as Trustee (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 Debt
Securities, and of the terms upon which the Debt Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. This Note is one of the series of Debt Securities
designated as "Medium-Term Notes Due Nine Months or More From Date of Issue,
Series A" (the "Notes"). All terms used but not defined in this Note or in an
Addendum hereto shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Indenture
or on the face hereof, as the case may be.
This Note is issuable only in registered form without coupons in
minimum denominations of U.S.$1,000 and integral multiples thereof or the
minimum Authorized Denomination specified on the face hereof.
This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless otherwise
specified on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following
two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or repayable prior to the Stated Maturity
Date.
This Note will be subject to redemption at the option of the Company on
any date on or after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified on the face
hereof, in whole or from time to time in part, in increments of U.S.$1,000
(provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least
U.S.$1,000), at the Redemption Price (as defined below), together with unpaid
interest accrued hereon to the date fixed for redemption (each, a "Redemption
Date"), on notice given no more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to
the Redemption Date and in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture. The
"Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage
specified on the face hereof multiplied by the unpaid principal amount of this
Note to be redeemed. The Initial Redemption Percentage shall decline at each
anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage
Reduction, if any, specified on the face hereof until the Redemption Price is
100% of 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 shall be issued in the
name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and surrender hereof.
This Note will be subject to repayment by the Company at the option of
the Holder hereof on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified on the
face hereof, in whole or in part in increments of U.S.$1,000 (provided that any
remaining principal amount hereof shall be at least U.S.$1,000), 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,
1
<PAGE>
together with the form hereon entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly
completed, by the Issuing and Paying Agent at its corporate trust office not
more than 60 nor less than 30 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
shall be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the presentation and
surrender hereof.
If this Note is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified on the
face hereof, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note in the event of
redemption, repayment or acceleration of maturity will be equal to the sum of
(1) the Issue Price specified on the face hereof (increased by any accruals of
the Discount, as defined below) and, in the event of any redemption of this Note
(if applicable, multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage (as applicable),
multiplied by the Initial Redemption Percentage (as adjusted by the Annual
Redemption Percentage Reduction, if applicable) and (2) any unpaid Interest on
this Note accrued from the Original Issue Date to the Redemption Date, 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 is
referred to herein as the "Discount."
For purposes of determining the amount of Discount that has accrued as
of any Redemption Date, 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 (as
defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment
Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period) 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.
If an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture, shall occur and be
continuing, the principal of this Note may be accelerated in the manner and with
the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance of (i) the entire
indebtedness of the Notes or (ii) certain covenants and Events of Default with
respect to the Notes, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set
forth therein, which provisions apply to the Notes.
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 at any time by the
Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a
majority of the aggregate principal amount of all Debt Securities at the time
outstanding and affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions
permitting the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal
amount of the outstanding Debt Securities of any series, on behalf of the
Holders of all such Debt Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with
certain provisions of the Indenture. Furthermore, provisions in the Indenture
permit the Holders of not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding Debt Securities of any series, in certain instances, to
waive, on behalf of all of the Holders of Debt Securities of such series,
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 other Notes issued
2
<PAGE>
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange heretofore 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 unconditional, to pay principal, premium, if any, and interest, if
any, in respect of this Note at the times, places and rate or formula, 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 of the Company upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer
at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal hereof
and any premium or interest hereon 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 by his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes, of authorized
denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein
and herein set forth, this Note is exchangeable for a like aggregate principal
amount of Notes of different authorized denominations but otherwise having the
same terms and conditions, as requested by the Holder hereof 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
Holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all
purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
The Indenture and this Note shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made
and to be performed entirely in such State.
