The Northern Trust Company, an Illinois banking corporation (the "Bank"),
for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns,
the principal amount specified on the face hereof in United States Dollars on
the Maturity Date specified above and to pay interest thereon from the Original
Issue Date specified above or from the most recent interest payment date (or, if
the Interest Reset Period specified above is daily or weekly, from, and
including, the day following the most recent Regular Record Date) to which
interest on this Senior Note (or any predecessor Senior Note) has been paid or
made available for payment (each, an "Interest Payment Date"), on the Interest
Payment Dates specified above and at maturity or upon earlier redemption or
repayment, if applicable, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date next
succeeding the Original Issue Date (or, if the Original Issue Date is between a
Regular Record Date and the Interest Payment Date immediately following such
Regular Record Date, on the second Interest Payment Date following the Original
Issue Date), at a rate per annum equal to the Initial Base Rate specified above,
as adjusted by the addition or subtraction of the Spread, if any, specified
above and/or by the
<PAGE>
multiplication by the Spread Multiplier, if any specified above, until the first
Interest Reset Date following the Original Issue Date and, on and after such
Interest Reset Date, at the rate determined in accordance with the provisions
set forth herein, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for
payment, and (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally
enforceable) at the last rate in effect prior to any payment default (or the
Default Rate per annum specified above, if such Default Rate is specified above)
on any overdue principal and premium, if any, and on any overdue installment of
interest. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or made available for
payment, on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the person in whose name
this Senior Note (or any predecessor Senior Note) is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the 15th
calendar day (whether or not a Business Day (as defined below)) before such
Interest Payment Date (unless otherwise specified on the face hereof); provided,
however, that interest payable at maturity or upon earlier redemption or
repayment, if applicable, will be payable to the person to whom principal shall
be payable.
Payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, this Senior
Note 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.
The Bank will at all times appoint and maintain a paying agent (the "Paying
Agent") authorized by the Bank to pay the principal of, and premium, if any, and
interest on, this Senior Note on behalf of the Bank and having an office or
agency (the "Paying Agent Office") in The City of New York or the City of
Chicago, Illinois (the "Place of Payment"), where this Senior Note may be
presented or surrendered for payment and where notices, designations or requests
in respect of payments with respect to this Senior Note may be served. The Bank
has initially appointed itself as such Paying Agent, with the Paying Agent
Office currently located at 50 South LaSalle Street (Level BB-A), Chicago,
Illinois 60675, Attention: Securities Services.
THIS SENIOR NOTE IS A DIRECT, UNCONDITIONAL, UNSECURED AND UNSUBORDINATED
GENERAL OBLIGATION OF THE BANK AND DOES NOT EVIDENCE A DEPOSIT INSURED BY THE
FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCY. THIS
SENIOR NOTE RANKS PARI PASSU WITH ALL OTHER UNSECURED AND UNSUBORDINATED
-3-
<PAGE>
OBLIGATIONS OF THE BANK, EXCEPT DEPOSITS AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS THAT ARE SUBJECT
TO A PRIORITY OR PREFERENCE. UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, CLAIMS OF CERTAIN CREDITORS,
INCLUDING HOLDERS OF DEPOSITS IN THE BANK, WOULD BE ENTITLED TO PRIORITY OVER
CLAIMS OF UNSECURED GENERAL CREDITORS OF THE BANK, INCLUDING THE HOLDER OF THIS
SENIOR NOTE, IN THE EVENT OF A LIQUIDATION OR OTHER RESOLUTION OF THE BANK.
Payment of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on, this
Senior Note due at maturity or upon earlier redemption or repayment, if
applicable, will be made in immediately available funds upon presentation and
surrender of this Senior Note to the Paying Agent at the Paying Agent Office in
the Place of Payment; provided that this Senior Note is presented to the Paying
Agent in time for the Paying Agent to make such payment in accordance with its
normal procedures. Payments of interest on this Senior Note (other than at
maturity or upon earlier redemption or repayment) will be made by wire transfer
to such account as has been appropriately designated to the Paying Agent by the
person entitled to such payments.
This Senior Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Senior Bank Notes due
from 30 days to fifteen years from date of issue of the Bank (herein called the
"Senior Notes").
Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof, if the rate of interest on
this Senior Note resets daily, weekly or monthly the Interest Payment Date for
this Senior Note will be the third Wednesday of each month or the third
Wednesday of March, June, September and December of each year; if the rate of
interest on this Senior Note resets quarterly, the Interest Payment Date for
this Senior Note will be the third Wednesday of March, June, September and
December of each year; if the rate of interest on this Senior Note resets semi-
annually, the Interest Payment Date for this Senior Note will be the third
Wednesday of each of two months of each year specified on the face hereof that
are six months apart; and if the rate of interest on this Senior Note resets
annually, the Interest Payment Date for this Senior Note will be the third
Wednesday of the month specified on the face hereof. If any Interest Payment
Date (unless it is also the Maturity Date) for this Senior Note falls on a day
that is not a Business Day, such Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the
next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if the
-4-
<PAGE>
Interest Rate Basis specified on the face hereof is LIBOR and such next
succeeding Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest
Payment Date (unless it is also the Maturity Date) will be the immediately
preceding Business Day. If any Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption or
repayment of this Senior Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the
related payment of interest shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day
with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment were due, and
no interest shall accrue on the amount so payable for the period from and after
such Maturity Date or date of earlier redemption or repayment. "Business Day"
means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a day on which banking
institutions in The City of New York or the City of Chicago, Illinois generally
are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close, and with respect
to Senior Notes with respect to which the Interest Rate Basis specified on the
face hereof is LIBOR, any day on which dealings in U.S. dollars are transacted
in the London interbank market (a "London Business Day").
This Senior Note will not be subject to any sinking fund. If so provided
on the face of this Senior Note, this Senior Note may be redeemed by the Bank on
and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified on the face hereof. If
no Initial Redemption Date is specified on the face hereof, this Senior Note may
not be redeemed prior to the Maturity Date. On and after the Initial Redemption
Date, if any, this Senior Note may be redeemed at any time either in whole or in
part from time to time in increments of $1,000 (provided that any remaining
principal amount hereof shall be at least $250,000) at the option of the Bank at
the applicable Redemption Price (as defined below), together with accrued and
unpaid interest hereon at the applicable rate borne by this Senior Note to the
date of redemption (each such date, a "Redemption Date"), on written notice
given not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the Redemption
Date by the Bank to the registered holder hereof. Whenever less than all the
Senior Notes at any time outstanding are to be redeemed, the terms of the Senior
Notes to be so redeemed shall be selected by the Bank. If less than all the
Senior Notes with identical terms at any time outstanding are to be redeemed,
the Senior Notes to be so redeemed shall be selected by the Paying Agent by lot
or in any usual manner approved by it. In the event of redemption of this
Senior Note
-5-
<PAGE>
in part only, a new Senior Note for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be
issued in the name of the holder hereof upon the surrender hereof.
The "Redemption Price" shall initially be the Initial Redemption Percentage
specified on the face hereof of the principal amount of this Senior Note to be
redeemed and shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date
specified on the face hereof by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if
any, specified on the face hereof, of the principal amount to be redeemed until
the Redemption Price is 100% of such principal amount.
This Senior Note may be subject to repayment at the option of the holder
hereof in accordance with the terms hereof on the Holder's Optional Repayment
Date(s), if any, specified on the face hereof. If no Holder's Optional
Repayment Date is specified on the face hereof, this Senior Note will not be so
repayable at the option of the holder hereof prior to maturity. On any Holder's
Optional Repayment Date, this Senior Note will be repayable in whole or in part
in increments of $1,000 (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof
will be at least $250,000) at the option of the holder hereof at a repayment
price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, together with accrued
and unpaid interest hereon payable to the date of repayment. For this Senior
Note to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the holder hereof on a
Holder's Optional Repayment Date, this Senior Note must be given, with the form
entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" below duly completed, to the Paying Agent
at its offices located at 50 South LaSalle Street (Level BB-A), Chicago,
Illinois 60675, Attention: Securities Services, or at such address which the
Bank shall from time to time notify the holders of the Senior Notes, not more
than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to such Holder's Optional Repayment Date.
Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof shall be irrevocable.
The rate of interest on this Senior Note will be reset daily, weekly,
monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually (each such period, an "Interest
Reset Period" for this Senior Note, and the first calendar day of an Interest
Reset Period, an "Interest Reset Date"), as specified on the face hereof.
Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof, if this Senior Note
-6-
<PAGE>
resets daily, the Interest Reset Date will be each Business Day; if this Senior
Note resets weekly and the Interest Rate Basis is not the Treasury Rate, the
Interest Reset Date will be the Wednesday of each week; if this Senior Note
resets weekly and the Interest Rate Basis is the Treasury Rate, the Interest
Reset Date will be the Tuesday of each week (except as provided below); if this
Senior Note resets monthly, the Interest Reset Date will be the third Wednesday
of each month; if this Senior Note resets quarterly, the Interest Reset Date
will be the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December; if this
Senior Note resets semi-annually, the Interest Reset Date will be the third
Wednesday of each of two months of each year that are six months apart, as
specified on the face hereof; and if this Senior Note resets annually, the
Interest Reset Date will be the third Wednesday of one month of each year, as
specified on the face hereof; provided, however, that the base rate in effect
from the Original Issue Date to the first Interest Reset Date will be the
Initial Base Rate specified on the face hereof. If any Interest Reset Date with
respect to this Senior Note would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day,
such Interest Reset Date will be the next succeeding Business Day, except that
in the case that the Interest Rate Basis specified on the face hereof is LIBOR,
if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest
Reset Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day.
All calculations relating to this Senior Note will be made by the
"Calculation Agent." The Bank will serve as Calculation Agent for this Senior
Note as of its Original Issue Date, unless otherwise specified on the face
hereof. The Bank may appoint a different institution to serve as Calculation
Agent from time to time after the Original Issue Date of this Senior Note
without the consent of the holder and without notice.
The Calculation Agent will determine the interest rate that takes effect on
an Interest Reset Date by reference to the Interest Determination Date. Unless
otherwise specified on the face hereof, (i) if the Interest Rate Basis is not
LIBOR or the Treasury Rate, the Interest Determination Date will be the second
Business Day before the Interest Reset Date; (ii) if the Interest Rate Basis is
LIBOR, the Interest Determination Date will be the second London Business Day
(as defined below) preceding the Interest Reset Date; and (iii) if the Interest
Rate Basis is the
-7-
<PAGE>
Treasury Rate, the Interest Determination Date will be the day of the week in
which the Interest Reset Date falls on which treasury bills -- i.e., direct
obligations of the U.S. government -- would normally be auctioned. Treasury
bills are usually sold at auction on the Monday of each week, unless that day is
a legal holiday, in which case the auction is usually held on the following
Tuesday but may be held on the preceding Friday. If as the result of a legal
holiday an auction is held on the preceding Friday, that Friday will be the
Treasury Interest Determination Date relating to the Interest Reset Date
occurring in the next succeeding week. If the auction is held on a day that
would otherwise be an Interest Reset Date, then the Interest Reset Date will
instead be the first Business Day following the auction date.
Unless the Interest Rate is LIBOR, the Calculation Agent will calculate the
interest rate that takes effect on a particular Interest Reset Date no later
than the corresponding Interest Calculation Date. The Interest Calculation Date
will be the earlier of (i) the tenth calendar day after the Interest
Determination Date or, if that tenth calendar day is not a Business Day, the
next succeeding Business Day, and (ii) the Business Day immediately preceding
the Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date on which the next payment of
interest will be due. The Calculation Agent need not wait until the relevant
Interest Calculation Date to determine the interest rate if the rate information
it needs to make the determination is available from the relevant sources
sooner.
For each Interest Reset Period, the Calculation Agent will calculate the
amount of accrued interest by multiplying the face amount of this Senior Note by
an accrued interest factor for the Interest Reset Period. This factor will
equal the sum of the interest factors calculated for each day during the
Interest Reset Period. The interest factor for each day will be expressed as a
decimal and will be calculated by dividing the interest rate (also expressed as
a decimal) applicable to that day (i) by 360, if the Interest Rate Basis is the
Commercial Paper Rate, the Prime Rate, LIBOR, the CD Rate or the Federal Funds
Rate, or (ii) by the actual number of days in the year, if the Interest Rate
Basis is the Treasury Rate or the CMT Rate.
-8-
<PAGE>
Upon the request of the holder of this Senior Note, the Calculation Agent
will provide such holder with the interest rate then in effect for this Senior
Note and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective on the
next Interest Reset Date. The Calculation Agent's determination of any interest
rate, and its calculation of the amount of interest for any Interest Reset
Period, will be final and binding in the absence of manifest error.
All percentages resulting from any calculation relating to this Senior Note
will be rounded upward or downward, as appropriate, to the next higher or lower
one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point. For example, 9.876541% (or
.09876541) would be rounded down to 9.87654% (or .0987654) and 9.876545% (or
.09876545) would be rounded up to 9.87655% (or .0987655). All amounts used in
or resulting from any calculation relating to this Senior Note will be rounded
upward or downward, as appropriate, to the nearest cent, with one-half cent or
more being rounded upward.
In determining the Base Rate that applies this Senior Note during a
particular Interest Reset Period, the Calculation Agent may obtain rate quotes
from various banks or dealers active in the relevant market, as described in the
following subsections. Those reference banks and dealers may include the
Calculation Agent itself, including the Bank, and its affiliates.
Except as otherwise provided herein, the rate of interest on this Senior
Note for each Interest Reset Date will be the rate determined in accordance with
the provisions set forth under the applicable heading below corresponding to the
Interest Rate Basis specified on the face hereof. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum
Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof and shall not be lower than
the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof. In addition,
the interest rate hereon will in no event be greater than the maximum rate
permitted by Illinois law, as the same may be modified by United States law of
general application.
Commercial Paper Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis of this Senior Note is
---------------------
the Commercial Paper Rate, this Senior Note will bear interest at a Base Rate
equal to the Commercial Paper Rate,
-9-
<PAGE>
as adjusted by the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face
hereof.
The Commercial Paper Rate will be the Money Market Yield (as defined below)
of the rate, for the relevant Interest Determination Date, for commercial paper
having the Index Maturity (as defined below) specified on the face of this
Senior Note, as published in H.15(519) (as defined below) under the heading
"Commercial Paper -- Nonfinancial." If the Commercial Paper Rate cannot be
determined as described above, the following procedures will apply:
(i) If the rate described above does not appear in H.15(519) at 3:00
P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation Date (unless
the calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from that source
at that time), then the Commercial Paper Rate will be the rate, for the
relevant Interest Determination Date, for commercial paper having the Index
Maturity specified on the face of this Senior Note, as published in H.15
Daily Update (as defined below) or another recognized electronic source
used for displaying that rate, under the heading "Commercial Paper --
Nonfinancial."
(ii) If the rate described above does not appear in H.15(519), H.15
Daily Update or another recognized electronic source at 3:00 P.M., New York
City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation Date (unless the
calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from one of those
sources at that time), the Commercial Paper Rate will 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 relevant Interest Determination Date, by three
leading U.S. dollar commercial paper dealers in New York City selected by
the Calculation Agent for U.S. dollar commercial paper that has the
relevant Index Maturity and is placed for an industrial issuer whose bond
rating is "AA", or the equivalent, from a nationally recognized rating
agency.
(iii) If fewer than three dealers selected by the Calculation Agent
are quoting as described above, the Commercial Paper Rate for the new
Interest Reset Period will be the rate in effect for the prior Interest
Reset Period.
-10-
<PAGE>
LIBOR. If the Interest Rate Basis of this Senior Note is LIBOR, this
-----
Senior Note will bear interest at a Base Rate equal to LIBOR, as adjusted by the
Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof. LIBOR will
be the London interbank offered rate for deposits of U.S. dollars. LIBOR will
be either (a) the offered rate appearing on the Telerate LIBOR Page (as defined
below) or (b) the arithmetic mean of the offered rates appearing on the Reuters
screen LIBOR Page (as defined below), unless that page by its terms cites only
one rate, in which case that rate; in either case, as of 11:00 A.M., London
time, on the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date, for deposits of U.S.
dollars having the relevant Index Maturity beginning on the relevant Interest
Reset Date. If no reference page is specified on the face of this Senior Note,
the Telerate LIBOR Page will apply. If LIBOR cannot be determined in this
manner, the following procedures will apply:
(i) If the Telerate LIBOR Page applies and the rate described above
does not appear on that page, or if the Reuters Screen LIBOR Page applies
and fewer than two of the rates described above appear on that page or no
rate appears on any page on which only one rate normally appears, then
LIBOR will be determined on the basis of the rates, at approximately 11:00
A.M., London time, on the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date, at
which deposits of U.S. dollars having the relevant Index Maturity,
beginning on the relevant Interest Reset Date and in a Representative
Amount (as defined below) are offered to prime banks in the London
interbank market by four major banks in that market selected by the
Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent will request the principal London
office of each of these banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at
least two quotations are provided, LIBOR for the relevant LIBOR Interest
Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations.
(ii) If fewer than two quotations are provided as described above,
LIBOR for the relevant LIBOR Interest Determination Date will be the
arithmetic mean of the rates for loans of U.S. dollars having the relevant
Index Maturity, beginning on the relevant Interest Reset Date and in a
Representative Amount to leading European banks quoted,
-11-
<PAGE>
at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on that LIBOR Interest
Determination Date, by three major banks in New York City selected by the
Calculation Agent.
(iii) If fewer than three banks selected by the Calculation Agent are
quoting as described above, LIBOR for the new Interest Reset Period will be
the rate in effect for the prior Interest Reset Period.
Treasury Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis of this Senior Note is the
-------------
Treasury Rate, this Senior Note will bear interest at a Base Rate equal to the
Treasury Rate, as adjusted by the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified
on the face hereof.
The Treasury Rate will be the rate for the auction, on the relevant
Treasury Interest Determination Date, of treasury bills having the Index
Maturity specified in the on the face of this Senior Note, as that rate appears
on Telerate Page (as defined below) 56 or 57 under the heading "Investment
Rate." If the Treasury Rate cannot be determined in this manner, the following
procedures will apply:
(i) If the rate described above does not appear on either page at
3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation Date
(unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from that
source at that time), the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield
(as defined below) of the rate, for the relevant Interest Determination
Date, for the type of treasury bill described above, as published in H.15
Daily Update or another recognized electronic source used for displaying
that rate, under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury
Bills/Auction High."
(ii) If the rate described in the prior paragraph does not appear in
H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source at 3:00 P.M., New
York City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation Date (unless the
calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from one of those
sources at that time), the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield
of the auction rate, for the relevant Treasury Interest Determination Date
and for treasury bills
-12-
<PAGE>
of the kind described above, as announced by the U.S. Department of the
Treasury.
(iii) If the auction rate described in the prior paragraph is not so
announced by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest
Calculation Date, or if no such auction is held for the relevant week, then
the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield of the rate, for the
relevant Treasury Interest Determination Date and for treasury bills having
a remaining maturity closest to the specified Index Maturity, as published
in H.15(519) under the heading "U.S. Government Securities/Treasury
Bills/Secondary Market."
(iv) If the rate described in the prior paragraph does not appear in
H.15(519) at 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest
Calculation Date (unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is
available from one of those sources at that time), then the Treasury Rate
will be the rate, for the relevant Treasury Interest Determination Date and
for treasury bills having a remaining maturity closest to the specified
Index Maturity, as published in H.15 Daily Update or another recognized
electronic source used for displaying that rate, under the heading "U.S.
Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market."
(v) If the rate described in the prior paragraph does not appear in
H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source at 3:00 P.M., New
York City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation Date (unless the
calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from one of those
sources at that time), the Treasury Rate will be the Bond Equivalent Yield
of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates as of
approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Treasury
Interest Determination Date, of three primary U.S. government securities
dealers in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent for the issue of
treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the specified Index
Maturity.
(vi) If fewer than three dealers selected by the Calculation Agent
are quoting as described in the prior
-13-
<PAGE>
paragraph, the Treasury Rate in effect for the new Interest Reset Period
will be the rate in effect for the prior Interest Reset Period.
CMT Rate. If the Interest Rate Basis of this Senior Note is the CMT Rate,
--------
this Senior Note will bear interest at a Base Rate equal to the CMT Rate, as
adjusted by the Spread or Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face
hereof.
The CMT Rate will be the rate displayed on the Designated CMT Telerate Page
(as defined below) under the heading ". . . Treasury Constant Maturities . . .
Federal Reserve Board Release H.15 . . . Mondays Approximately 3:45 P.M.," under
the column for the Designated CMT Index Maturity (as defined below), as follows:
(a) if the Designated CMT Telerate Page is Telerate Page 7051, the rate for the
relevant Interest Determination Date, or (b) if the Designated CMT Telerate Page
is Telerate Page 7052, the weekly or monthly average, as specified on the face
of this Senior Note, for the week that ends immediately before the week in which
the relevant Interest Determination Date falls, or for the month that ends
immediately before the month in which the relevant Interest Determination Date
falls, as applicable. If the CMT Rate cannot be determined in this manner, the
following procedures will apply:
(i) If the applicable rate described above is not displayed on the
relevant Designated CMT Telerate Page at 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on
the relevant Interest Calculation Date (unless the calculation is made
earlier and the rate is available from that source at that time), then the
CMT Rate will be the applicable treasury constant maturity rate described
above--that is, for the Designated CMT Index Maturity and for either the
relevant Interest Determination Date or the weekly or monthly average, as
applicable--as published in H.15(519).
(ii) If the applicable rate described above does not appear in
H.15(519) at 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest
Calculation Date (unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is
available from one of those sources at that time), then the CMT Rate will
be the treasury constant maturity rate, or other U.S. treasury rate, for
the Designated CMT Index Maturity and with reference to the relevant
Interest Determination Date, that
-14-
<PAGE>
(a) is published by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System,
or the U.S. Department of the Treasury, and (b) is determined by the
Calculation Agent to be comparable to the applicable rate formerly
displayed on the Designated CMT Telerate Page and published in H.15(519).
(iii) If the rate described in the prior paragraph does not appear
at 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation Date
(unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from one
of those sources at that time), then the CMT Rate will be the yield to
maturity of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates, as of approximately
3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Determination Date,
of three primary U.S. government securities dealers in New York City
selected by the Calculation Agent for the most recently issued treasury
notes having an original maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Index
Maturity and a remaining term to maturity of not less than the Designated
CMT Index Maturity minus one year, and in a Representative Amount. In
selecting these offered rates, the Calculation Agent will request
quotations from five of these primary dealers and will disregard the
highest quotation--or, if there is equality, one of the highest--and the
lowest quotation--or, if there is equality, one of the lowest. Treasury
notes are direct, non-callable, fixed rate obligations of the U.S.
government.
(iv) If the Calculation Agent is unable to obtain three quotations
of the kind described in the prior paragraph, the CMT rate will be the
yield to maturity of the arithmetic mean of the offered rates, as of
approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest
Determination Date, of three primary U.S. government securities dealers in
New York City selected by the Calculation Agent for treasury notes with an
original maturity longer than the Designated CMT Index Maturity, with a
remaining term to maturity closest to the Designated CMT Index Maturity and
in a Representative Amount. In selecting these offered rates, the
Calculation Agent will request quotations from five of these primary
dealers and will disregard the highest quotation--or, if there is equality,
one of the highest--and the lowest quotation--or, if there is equality, one
of
-15-

are quoting as described in the prior paragraph, then the CMT Rate for the
relevant Interest Determination Date will be based on the arithmetic mean
of the offered rates so obtained, and neither the highest nor the lowest of
those quotations will be disregarded.
(vi) If two or fewer primary dealers selected by the Calculation
Agent are quoting as described above, the CMT Rate in effect for the new
Interest Reset Period will be the rate in effect for the prior Interest
Reset Period.

120 at 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation
Date (unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from
that source at that time), then the Federal Funds Rate, for the relevant

(i) If the rate described above does not appear in H.15(519) at
3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the relevant Interest Calculation Date
(unless the calculation is made earlier and the rate is available from that
source at that time), then the Prime Rate will be the rate, for the

Daily Update
or another recognized electronic source at 3:00 P.M., New York City time,

quoting as described above, the Prime Rate for the new Interest Reset
Period will be the rate in effect for the prior Interest Reset Period.

No provision of this Senior Note shall alter or impair the obligation of
the Bank, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal, and
premium, if any, and interest on, this Senior Note in U.S. dollars at the times,
places and rate herein prescribed.
The Bank shall cause to be kept at the corporate trust office of the Senior
Note Registrar designated below a register (the register maintained in such
