delivered or any adjustment to the
quantity of any other stock, other
securities or other property or
assets (including cash) due to the
holder of this Note, the
Calculation Agent shall give
prompt notice of any such
adjustments to the Trustee at its

Johnson & Johnson Stock (and, if
applicable, of any other stock or
securities) in an amount equal to
the corresponding fractional
Market Price of such fraction of
Johnson & Johnson Stock (or, if
applicable, of such other stock or
other securities) on such Exchange
Date or on the second Exchange
Date immediately prior to the Call
Date, as applicable, as determined
by the Calculation Agent on such
Exchange Date.
Exchange Ratio:............................ , subject to adjustment for

Company Exchange Right:.................... On or after November 1, 1998, the
Issuer may call this Note in
whole but not in part, for
mandatory exchange into Johnson
& Johnson Stock (and, if
applicable, any other stock, other
securities or other property or
assets) at the Exchange Ratio plus
any accrued and unpaid interest

issued prior to October 1, 1998;
and further provided that between
November 1, 1998 and on or before
September 15, 1999, the Issuer may
only call this Note if Parity on
the NYSE Trading Day immediately
preceding the Notice Date, as
determined by the Calculation
Agent, is greater than $1,400;
and provided further that after
September 15, 1999, if Parity as
determined on the NYSE Trading Day

shall pay such Call Price plus any
accrued and unpaid interest to,
but not including, the Call Date
in cash on the Call Date.
On or after the Notice Date,
subject to a call of this Note for
Cash by the Issuer, the holder of

of Representations related to this
Note. Any notice which is mailed
in the manner herein provided
shall be conclusively presumed to
have been duly given, whether or
not the holder of this Note
receives the notice. Failure to
give notice by mail, or any defect
in the notice to the holder of any
Note shall not affect the validity
of the proceedings for the
exercise of the Company Exchange
Right with respect to any other
Note.
The notice of the Issuer's
exercise of the Company Exchange
Right to the holder of this Note,
to the Trustee and to DTC shall
specify the Call Date, whether
Parity on the NYSE Trading Day
immediately prior to the Notice
Date, as determined by the
Calculation Agent, is less than
the Call Price applicable to such
Notice Date so that the Issuer
will pay such applicable Call
Price in cash on the Call Date,
the place or places of payment of

determined, is equal to or greater
than such applicable Call Price,

the Johnson & Johnson Stock and, if
applicable, of any other stock,
other securities or other property
or assets (including cash) to be
delivered as a result of any
corporate event described in
paragraphs 5 or 6 under
"Adjustments to the Exchange
Ratio" (and of any cash to be paid
in lieu of fractional shares of
Johnson & Johnson Stock (and, if
applicable, of any such other
stock or securities)), the number
of shares of Johnson & Johnson
Stock (and, if applicable, the
quantity of any other stock, other
securities or other property or
assets) to be delivered per $1,000
principal amount of this Note,
that such delivery will be made
upon presentation and surrender of
this Note and that such exchange
is pursuant to the Company
Exchange Right.
The notice of the Issuer's
exercise of the Company Exchange
Right shall be given by the Issuer
or, at the Issuer's request, by
the Trustee in the name and at the
expense of the Issuer.
If Johnson & Johnson Stock (and,
if applicable, any stock, other
securities or other property or
assets (including any cash)) is
to be delivered and, as a result
of any corporate event described
under "Adjustments to the Exchange
Ratio" occurring during the period
from and including the Notice Date
to the close of business on the
Business Day prior to the Call
Date, the Calculation Agent makes
any adjustment to the Exchange
Ratio and consequent adjustment to
the number of shares of Johnson &
Johnson Stock to be delivered or
any adjustment to the quantity of
any other stock, other securities
or other property or assets
(including cash) due to the holder
of this Note, the Calculation
Agent shall give prompt notice of
any such adjustments to the
Trustee at its New York Office and
to DTC, on which notice the
Trustee and DTC may conclusively
rely. No adjustment to the
Exchange Ratio shall be made as a
result of any corporate event
occurring after the close of
business on the Business Day prior
to the Call Date.
If this Note is so called for
mandatory exchange, then, unless
(solely in the case of an exchange
for Johnson & Johnson Stock) the
holder subsequently exercises his
Exchange Right (the exercise of
which will not be available to the
holder following a call for cash
in an amount equal to the Call
Price), the Johnson & Johnson Stock
(and, if applicable, any other
stock, other securities or other
property or assets (including
cash)) to be delivered to the
holder of this Note shall be
delivered on the Call Date fixed
by the Issuer and set forth in its
notice of exchange, upon delivery
of this Note to the Trustee. The
Issuer shall, or shall cause the
Calculation Agent to, deliver such
Johnson & Johnson Stock to the
Trustee for delivery to the holder.
If this Note is not surrendered
for exchange on the Call Date, it

Outstanding under, and as defined
in, the Senior Indenture (as
defined below) after the Call
Date, except with respect to the
holder's right to receive Johnson
& Johnson Stock (and, if
applicable, any other stock, other
securities or other property or
assets (including cash)) or cash
due in connection with the Company
Exchange Right.
Notice Date:............................... Any NYSE Trading Day on or after
October 1, 1998 on which the
Issuer issues its notice of
mandatory exchange.
Parity:.................................... With respect to any NYSE Trading
Day, an amount equal to the
Exchange Ratio times the Market
Price (as defined below) of a
Johnson & Johnson Share on such
NYSE Trading Day.
Call Price:................................ 100% of principal amount.
Market Price:.............................. If Johnson & Johnson Stock is
listed on a national securities
exchange, is a security on The
Nasdaq National Market ("NASDAQ
NMS") or is included in the OTC
Bulletin Board Service ("OTC
Bulletin Board") operated by the
National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"), the
Market Price for any NYSE Trading
Day means (i) the last reported
sale price, regular way, on such
day on the principal United States
securities exchange registered
under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange
Act") on which Johnson & Johnson
Stock is listed or admitted to
trading or (ii) if not listed or
admitted to trading on any such
securities exchange or if such
last reported sale price is not
obtainable, the last reported sale
price on the over-the-counter
market as reported on the NASDAQ
NMS or OTC Bulletin Board on such
day. If the last reported sale
price is not available pursuant to
clause (i) or (ii) of the preceding
sentence, the Market Price for any
NYSE Trading Day shall be the
mean, as determined by the
Calculation Agent, of the bid
prices for Johnson & Johnson Stock
obtained from as many dealers in
such Johnson & Johnson Stock, but
not exceeding three, as will make
such bid prices available to the
Calculation Agent. The term
"NASDAQ NMS security" shall
include a security included in any
successor to such system and the
term "OTC Bulletin Board Service"
shall include any successor
service thereto.
NYSE Trading Day:.......................... A day on which trading is
generally conducted in the
over-the-counter market for equity
securities in the United States
and on the New York Stock
Exchange, as determined by the
Calculation Agent, and on which
a Market Disruption Event has not
occurred.
Business Day: ............................. 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 or regulation to
close in the City of New York.
Calculation Agent:......................... Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated
("MS & Co.")
Adjustments to the Exchange Ratio:......... The Exchange Ratio shall be
adjusted as follows:
1. If the Johnson & Johnson
Stock is subject to a stock split
or reverse stock split, then once
such split has become effective,
the Exchange Ratio shall be
adjusted to equal the product of
the prior Exchange Ratio and the
number of shares issued in such
stock split or reverse stock split
with respect to one share of
Johnson & Johnson Stock.
2. If the Johnson & Johnson Stock
is subject to a stock dividend
(issuance of additional Johnson &
Johnson Stock that is given
ratably to all holders of Johnson
& Johnson Stock), then once the
dividend on the Johnson & Johnson
Stock has become effective with
respect to the Johnson & Johnson
Stock and Johnson & Johnson Stock
is trading ex-dividend, the
Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted
so that the new Exchange Ratio
shall equal the prior Exchange
Ratio plus the product of (i) the
number of shares issued with
respect to one share of Johnson
& Johnson Stock and (ii) the prior
Exchange Ratio.
3. There shall be no adjustments
to the Exchange Ratio to reflect
cash dividends or other
distributions paid with respect to
the Johnson & Johnson Stock other
than distributions described in
paragraph 6 below and
Extraordinary Dividends as
described below. A cash dividend
or other distribution with respect
to Johnson & Johnson Stock shall
be deemed to be an "Extraordinary
Dividend" if such dividend or
other distribution exceeds the
immediately preceding
non-Extraordinary Dividend for
Johnson & Johnson Stock by an
amount equal to at least 10% of
the Market Price of Johnson &
Johnson Stock on the NYSE Trading
Day preceding the ex-dividend date
for the payment of such
Extraordinary Dividend (the
"ex-dividend date") on the Johnson
& Johnson Stock. If an
Extraordinary Dividend occurs with
respect to Johnson & Johnson
Stock, the Exchange Ratio with
respect to Johnson & Johnson Stock
shall be adjusted on the
ex-dividend date with respect to
such Extraordinary Dividend so
that the new Exchange Ratio shall
equal the product of (i) the then
current Exchange Ratio and (ii) a
fraction, the numerator of which
is the Market Price on the NYSE
Trading Day preceding the
ex-dividend date, and the
denominator of which is the amount
by which the Market Price on the
NYSE Trading Day preceding the
ex-dividend date exceeds the
Extraordinary Dividend Amount.
The" Extraordinary Dividend Amount"
with respect to an Extraordinary
Dividend for Johnson & Johnson
Stock shall equal (i) in the case
of cash dividends or other
distributions that constitute
quarterly dividends, the amount
per share of such Extraordinary
Dividend minus the amount per
share of the immediately preceding
non-Extraordinary Dividend for
Johnson & Johnson Stock or (ii) in
the case of cash dividends or
other distributions that do not
constitute quarterly dividends,
the amount per share of such
Extraordinary Dividend. To the
extent an Extraordinary Dividend
is not paid in cash, the value of
the non-cash component shall be
determined by the Calculation
Agent, whose determination shall
be conclusive. A distribution on
the Johnson & Johnson Stock
described in paragraph 6 below
that also constitutes an
Extraordinary Dividend shall only
cause an adjustment to the
Exchange Ratio pursuant to
paragraph 6.
4. If Johnson & Johnson is being
liquidated or is subject to a
proceeding under any applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency or other
similar law, this Note shall
continue to be exchangeable into
Johnson & Johnson Stock so long as
a Market Price for Johnson &
Johnson Stock is available. If
a Market Price is no longer
available for Johnson & Johnson
Stock for whatever reason,
including the liquidation of
Johnson & Johnson or the
subjection of Johnson & Johnson
to a proceeding under any
applicable bankruptcy, insolvency
or other similar law, then the
value of Johnson & Johnson Stock
shall equal zero for so long as no
Market Price is available.
5. If there occurs any
reclassification or change of
Johnson & Johnson Stock, or if
Johnson & Johnson has been subject
to a merger, combination or
consolidation and is not the
surviving entity, or if there
occurs a sale or conveyance to
another corporation of the
property and assets of Johnson &
Johnson as an entirety or
substantially as an entirety, in
each case as a result of which the
holders of Johnson & Johnson Stock
shall be entitled to receive
stock, other securities or other
property or assets (including
cash) with respect to or in
exchange for such Johnson &
Johnson Stock, then the holder of
this Note shall be entitled
thereafter to exchange this Note
into the kind and amount of shares
of stock, other securities or
other property or assets
(including cash) that the holder
would have owned or been entitled
to receive upon such
reclassification, change, merger,
combination, consolidation, sale
or conveyance had the holder
exchanged this Note for Johnson
& Johnson Stock immediately prior
to any such corporate event.
6. If Johnson & Johnson issues to
all of its shareholders equity
securities of an issuer other than
Johnson & Johnson (other than in a
transaction described in paragraph
5 above), then the holder of this
Note shall be entitled to receive
such new equity securities upon
exchange of this Note. The
Exchange Ratio for such new equity
securities shall equal the product
of the Exchange Ratio in effect
for the Johnson & Johnson Stock at
the time of the issuance of such
new equity securities issued with
respect to one share of Johnson &
Johnson Stock.
No adjustments to the Exchange
Ratio shall be required unless
such adjustment would require a
change of at least 0.1% in the
Exchange Ratio then in effect.
The Exchange Ratio resulting from
any of the adjustments specified
above shall be rounded to the
nearest one thousandth with five
ten-thousandths being rounded
upward.
No adjustments to the Exchange
Ratio shall be made other than
those specified above.
The Calculation Agent shall be
solely responsible for the
determination and calculation of
any adjustments to the Exchange
Ratio and of any related
determinations and calculations
with respect to any distributions
of stock, other securities or
other property or assets
(including cash) in connection
with any corporate event described
in paragraph 5 or 6 above, and its
determinations and calculations
with respect thereto shall be
conclusive.
The Calculation Agent shall
provide information as to any
adjustments to the Exchange Ratio
upon written request by the holder
of this Note.
Market Disruption Event:................... "Market Disruption Event" means:
(i) a suspension, absence or
material limitation of trading of
Johnson & Johnson Stock on the
primary market for Johnson &
Johnson Stock for more than two
hours of trading or during the
one-half hour period preceding the
close of trading in such market;
or the suspension, absence or
material limitation on the primary
market for trading in options
contracts related to Johnson &
Johnson Stock, if available,
during the one-half hour period
preceding the close of trading in
the applicable market, in each case
as determined by the Calculation
Agent in its sole discretion; and
(ii) a determination by the
Calculation Agent in its sole
discretion that the event
described in clause (i) above
materially interfered with the
ability of the Issuer or any of
its affiliates to unwind all or
a material portion of the hedge
with respect to the Exchangeable
Notes Due March 29, 2002
(Exchangeable For Shares of Common
Stock of Johnson & Johnson).
For purposes of determining
whether a Market Disruption Event
has occurred: (1) a limitation on
the hours or number of days of
trading will not constitute a
Market Disruption Event if it
results from an announced change
in the regular business hours of
the relevant exchange, (2) a
decision to permanently
discontinue trading in the
relevant contract will not
constitute a Market Disruption
Event, (3) limitations pursuant
to New York Stock Exchange Rule
80A (or any applicable rule or
regulation enacted or promulgated
by the New York Stock Exchange,
any other self-regulatory
organization or the Securities and
Exchange Commission of similar
scope as determined by the
Calculation Agent) on trading
during significant market
fluctuations shall constitute a
Market Disruption Event, (4) a
suspension of trading in an
options contract on Johnson &
Johnson Stock by the primary
securities market trading in such
options, if available, by reason
of (x) a price change exceeding
limits set by such securities
exchange or market, (y) an
imbalance of orders relating to
such contracts or (z) a disparity
in bid and ask quotes relating to
such contracts will constitute a
suspension or material limitation
of trading in options contracts
related to Johnson & Johnson Stock
and (5) an "absence of trading" on
the primary securities market on
which options contracts related
to Johnson & Johnson Stock are
traded shall not include any time
when such securities market is
itself closed for trading under
ordinary circumstances.

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

interest payable at maturity (or on any redemption or repayment date) will be
payable to the person to whom the principal hereof shall be payable.
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 or regulation to close in The
City of New York and (i) with respect to Notes denominated in a Specified
Currency other than U.S. dollars, Australian dollars or European Currency
Units ("ECUs"), in the principal financial center of the country of the
Specified Currency, (ii) with respect to Notes denominated in Australian
dollars, in Sydney and (iii) with respect to Notes denominated in ECUs, that
is not a non-ECU clearing day, as determined by the ECU Banking Association in
Paris.
Payment of the principal of this Note, any premium and the
interest due at maturity (or on any redemption or repayment date) will be
made in immediately available funds upon surrender of this Note at the
office or agency of the Paying Agent, as defined on the reverse hereof,
maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New
York, or at such other paying agency as the Issuer may determine. Payment
of the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be
made in the Specified Currency indicated above; provided, however, that
U.S. dollar payments of interest, other than interest due at maturity or on
any date of redemption or repayment, will be made by U.S. dollar check
mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as such address shall
appear in the Note register. A holder of U.S. $10,000,000 or more in
aggregate principal amount of Notes having the same Interest Payment Date
will be entitled to receive payments of interest, other than interest due
at maturity or on any date of redemption or repayment, by wire transfer of
immediately available funds if appropriate wire transfer instructions have
been received by the Paying Agent in writing not less than 15 calendar days
prior to the applicable Interest Payment Date. If this Note is denominated
in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, payments of interest
hereon will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an
account maintained by the holder hereof with a bank located outside the
United States if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received
by the Paying Agent in writing not less than 15 calendar days prior to the
applicable Interest Payment Date. If such wire transfer instructions are
not so received, such interest payments will be made by check payable in
such Specified Currency mailed to the address of the person entitled
thereto as such address shall appear in the Note register.
Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Note
set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all
purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been
executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature,
this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Senior Indenture, as
defined on the reverse hereof, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this Note to be duly
executed under its corporate seal.

This is one of the Notes referred
to in the within-mentioned
Senior Indenture.
CHEMICAL BANK,

By ____________________________
Authorized Officer
REVERSE OF SECURITY
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Senior Global
Medium-Term Notes, Series C, having maturities more than nine months from the
date of issue (the "Notes") of the Issuer. The Notes are issuable under a
Senior Indenture, dated as of April 15, 1989, as supplemented by a First
Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 15, 1991 (as so supplemented, the
"Senior Indenture"), between the Issuer and Chemical Bank, as Trustee (the
"Trustee," which term includes any successor trustee under the Senior
Indenture), to which Senior Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto
reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations
of rights, duties and immunities of the Issuer, the Trustee and holders of the
Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and
delivered. The Issuer has appointed Chemical Bank at its corporate trust
office in The City of New York as the paying agent (the "Paying Agent," which
term includes any additional or successor Paying Agent appointed by the
Issuer) with respect to the Notes. The terms of individual Notes may vary
with respect to interest rates, interest rate formulas, issue dates, maturity
dates, or otherwise, all as provided in the Senior Indenture. To the extent
not inconsistent herewith, the terms of the Senior Indenture are hereby
incorporated by reference herein.
This Note will not be subject to any sinking fund and, unless
otherwise provided on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the
following two paragraphs, will not be redeemable or subject to repayment at
the option of the holder prior to maturity.
If so indicated on the face of this Note, this Note may be
redeemed in whole or in part at the option of the Issuer on or after the
Initial Redemption Date specified on the face hereof on the terms set forth on
the face hereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date
of redemption (except as provided below). If this Note is subject to "Annual
Redemption Percentage Reduction," the Initial Redemption Percentage indicated
on the face hereof will be reduced on each anniversary of the Initial
Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction specified on the
face hereof until the redemption price of this Note is 100% of the principal
amount hereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of
redemption (except as provided below). Notice of redemption shall be mailed
to the registered holders of the Notes designated for redemption at their
addresses as the same shall appear on the Note register not less than 30 nor
more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption, subject to all the
conditions and provisions of the Senior Indenture. In the event of redemption
of this Note in part only, a new Note or Notes for the amount of the
unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the holder hereof
upon the cancellation hereof.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Note may be redeemed in
accordance with the terms of any Extension Notice, as defined below, sent to
the holder hereof as described below.
If so indicated on the face of this Note, this Note will be
subject to repayment at the option of the holder on the Optional Repayment
Date or Dates specified on the face hereof on the terms set forth herein. On
any Optional Repayment Date, this Note will be repayable in whole or in part
in increments of $1,000 or, if this Note is denominated in a Specified
Currency other than U.S. dollars, in increments of 1,000 units of such
Specified Currency (provided that any remaining principal amount hereof shall
not be less than the minimum authorized denomination hereof) at the option of
the holder hereof at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be
repaid, together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of
repayment (except as provided below). For this Note to be repaid at the
option of the holder hereof, the Paying Agent must receive at its corporate
trust office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, at least 15 but
not more than 30 days prior to the date of repayment, (i) this Note with the
form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" below duly completed or (ii) a
telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a national
securities exchange or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or
a commercial bank or a trust company in the United States setting forth the
name of the holder of this Note, the principal amount hereof, the certificate
number of this Note or a description of this Note's tenor and terms, the
principal amount hereof to be repaid, a statement that the option to elect
repayment is being exercised thereby and a guarantee that this Note, together
with the form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" duly completed, will be
received by the Paying Agent not later than the fifth Business Day after the
date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter; provided, that
such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective
if this Note and form duly completed are received by the Paying Agent by such
fifth Business Day. Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof
shall be irrevocable. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a
new Note or Notes for the amount of the unpaid portion hereof shall be issued
in the name of the holder hereof upon the cancellation hereof.
If so indicated on the face of this Note, the Issuer has the
option to extend the Original Maturity Date hereof for one or more periods of
one or more whole years (each an "Extension Period") up to but not beyond the
Final Maturity Date specified on the face hereof and in connection therewith
to establish a new interest rate and new redemption provisions for the
Extension Period.
The Issuer may exercise such option by notifying the Paying
Agent of such exercise at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to the
Original Maturity Date or, if the maturity hereof has already been extended,
prior to the maturity date then in effect (an "Extended Maturity Date"), such
notice to be accompanied by the form of the Extension Notice referred to
below. No later than 38 days prior to the Original Maturity Date or an
Extended Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, a "Maturity Date"), the
Paying Agent will mail to the holder hereof a notice (the "Extension Notice")
relating to such Extension Period, first class mail, postage prepaid, setting
forth (a) the election of the Issuer to extend the maturity of this Note; (b)
the new Extended Maturity Date; (c) the interest rate applicable to the
Extension Period; and (d) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the
Extension Period, including the date or dates on which, the period or periods
during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during
the Extension Period. Upon the mailing by the Paying Agent of an Extension
Notice to the holder of this Note, the maturity hereof shall be extended
automatically, and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as
described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms it had
prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 10:00 A.M.,
New York City time, on the twentieth calendar day prior to the Maturity
Date in effect immediately preceding the mailing of the applicable
Extension Notice (or if such day is not a Business Day, not later than
10:00 A.M., New York City time, on the immediately succeeding Business
Day), the Issuer may, at its option, revoke the interest rate provided for
in such Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the
Extension Period by causing the Paying Agent to send notice of such higher
interest rate to the holder of this Note by first class mail, postage
prepaid, or by such other means as shall be agreed between the Issuer and
the Paying Agent. Such notice shall be irrevocable. All Notes with
respect to which the Maturity Date is extended in accordance with an
Extension Notice will bear such higher interest rate for the Extension
Period, whether or not tendered for repayment.
If the Issuer elects to extend the maturity hereof, the holder
of this Note will have the option to require the Issuer to repay this Note on
the Maturity Date in effect immediately preceding the mailing of the
applicable Extension Notice at a price equal to the principal amount hereof
plus any accrued and unpaid interest to such date. In order for this Note to
be so repaid on such Maturity Date, the holder hereof must follow the
procedures set forth above for optional repayment, except that the period for
delivery of this Note or notification to the Paying Agent shall be at least 25
but not more than 35 days prior to the Maturity Date in effect immediately
preceding the mailing of the applicable Extension Notice and except that if
the holder hereof has tendered this Note for repayment pursuant to this
paragraph he may, by written notice to the Paying Agent, revoke any such
tender for repayment until 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the twentieth
calendar day prior to the Maturity Date then in effect (or, if such day is not
a Business Day, until 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the immediately
succeeding Business Day).
Interest payments on this Note will include interest accrued to
but excluding the Interest Payment Dates or the Maturity Date (or any earlier
redemption or repayment date), as the case may be. Interest payments for this
Note will be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months.
In the case where the Interest Payment Date or the Maturity
Date (or any redemption or repayment date) does not fall on a Business Day,
payment of interest, premium, if any, or principal otherwise payable on such
date 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 the Interest Payment
Date or on the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment date), and no
interest on such payment shall accrue for the period from and after the
Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or any redemption or repayment
date) to such next succeeding Business Day.
This Note and all the obligations of the Issuer hereunder are
direct, unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank without preference or
priority among themselves and pari passu with all other existing and future
unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness of the Issuer, subject to certain
statutory exceptions in the event of liquidation upon insolvency.
This Note, and any Note or Notes issued upon transfer or
exchange hereof, is issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons,
and, if denominated in U.S. dollars, is issuable only in denominations of U.S.
$1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof. If this
Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, then,
unless a higher minimum denomination is required by applicable law, it is
issuable only in denominations of the equivalent of U.S. $1,000 (rounded to an
integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency), or any amount in
excess thereof which is an integral multiple of 1,000 units of such Specified
Currency, as determined by reference to the noon dollar buying rate in New
York City for cable transfers of such Specified Currency published by the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York (the "Market Exchange Rate") on the Business
Day immediately preceding the date of issuance; provided, however, in the case
of ECUs, the Market Exchange Rate shall be the rate of exchange determined by
the Commission of the European Communities (or any successor thereto) as
published in the Official Journal of the European Communities, or any
successor publication, on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of
issuance.
The Trustee has been appointed registrar for the Notes, and the
Trustee will maintain at its office in The City of New York a register for the
registration and transfer of Notes. This Note may be transferred at the
aforesaid office of the Trustee by surrendering this Note for cancellation,
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee and duly executed by the registered holder hereof in person or by the
holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon the Trustee shall
issue in the name of the transferee or transferees, in exchange herefor, a new
Note or Notes having identical terms and provisions and having a like
aggregate principal amount in authorized denominations, subject to the terms
and conditions set forth herein; provided, however, that the Trustee will not
be required (i) to register the transfer of or exchange any Note that has been
called for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of
Notes being redeemed in part, (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any
Note if the holder thereof has exercised his right, if any, to require the
Issuer to repurchase such Note in whole or in part, except the portion of such
Note not required to be repurchased, or (iii) to register the transfer of or
exchange Notes to the extent and during the period so provided in the Senior
Indenture with respect to the redemption of Notes. Notes are exchangeable at
said office for other Notes of other authorized denominations of equal
aggregate principal amount having identical terms and provisions. All such
exchanges and transfers of Notes will be free of charge, but the Issuer may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge in connection therewith. All Notes surrendered for exchange shall be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Trustee and executed by the registered holder in person or by the holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing. The date of registration of any Note
delivered upon any exchange or transfer of Notes shall be such that no gain or
loss of interest results from such exchange or transfer.
In case any Note shall at any time become mutilated, defaced or
be destroyed, lost or stolen and such Note or evidence of the loss, theft or
destruction thereof (together with the indemnity hereinafter referred to and
such other documents or proof as may be required in the premises) shall be
delivered to the Trustee, a new Note of like tenor will be issued by the
Issuer in exchange for the Note so mutilated or defaced, or in lieu of the
Note so destroyed or lost or stolen, but, in the case of any destroyed or lost
or stolen Note, only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and
the Issuer that such Note was destroyed or lost or stolen and, if required,
upon receipt also of indemnity satisfactory to each of them. All expenses and
reasonable charges associated with procuring such indemnity and with the
preparation, authentication and delivery of a new Note shall be borne by the
owner of the Note mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen.
The Senior Indenture provides that, (a) if an Event of Default
(as defined in the Senior Indenture) due to the default in payment of
principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, any series of debt securities
issued under the Senior Indenture, including the series of Senior Medium-Term
Notes of which this Note forms a part, or due to the default in the
performance or breach of any other covenant or warranty of the Issuer
applicable to the debt securities of such series but not applicable to all
outstanding debt securities issued under the Senior Indenture shall have
occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than
25% in principal amount of the debt securities of each affected series (voting
as a single class) may then declare the principal of all debt securities of
all such series and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately
and (b) if an Event of Default due to a default in the performance of any
other of the covenants or agreements in the Senior Indenture applicable to all
outstanding debt securities issued thereunder, including this Note, or due to
certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency and reorganization of the Issuer,
shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of
not less than 25% in principal amount of all debt securities issued under the
Senior Indenture then outstanding (treated as one class) may declare the
principal of all such debt securities and interest accrued thereon to be due
and payable immediately, but upon certain conditions such declarations may be
annulled and past defaults may be waived (except a continuing default in
payment of principal (or premium, if any) or interest on such debt securities)
by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the debt securities of all
affected series then outstanding.
If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to
"Modified Payment upon Acceleration," then (i) if the principal hereof is
declared to be due and payable as described in the preceding paragraph, the
amount of principal due and payable with respect to this Note shall be limited
to the aggregate principal amount hereof multiplied by the sum of the Issue
Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate
principal amount) plus the original issue discount amortized from the Interest
Accrual Date to the date of declaration, which amortization shall be
calculated using the "interest method" (computed in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in effect on the date of declaration), (ii) for
the purpose of any vote of securityholders taken pursuant to the Senior
Indenture prior to the acceleration of payment of this Note, the principal
amount hereof shall equal the amount that would be due and payable hereon,
calculated as set forth in clause (i) above, if this Note were declared to be
due and payable on the date of any such vote and (iii) for the purpose of any
vote of securityholders taken pursuant to the Senior Indenture following the
acceleration of payment of this Note, the principal amount hereof shall equal
the amount of principal due and payable with respect to this Note, calculated
as set forth in clause (i) above.
The Senior Indenture permits the Issuer and the Trustee, with
the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the debt securities of all series issued under the Senior Indenture
then outstanding and affected (voting as one class), to execute supplemental
indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner the rights of
the holders of each series so affected; provided that the Issuer and the
Trustee may not, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding debt
security affected thereby, (a) extend the final maturity of any such debt
security, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend
the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on
redemption or repayment thereof, or change the currency of payment thereof, or
impair or affect the rights of any holder to institute suit for the payment
thereof without the consent of the holder of each debt security so affected;
or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage in principal amount of debt securities
the consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental
indenture, without the consent of the holders of each debt security so
affected.
Except as set forth below, if the principal of, premium, if
any, or interest on, this Note is payable in a Specified Currency other than
U.S. dollars and such Specified Currency is not available to the Issuer for
making payments hereon due to the imposition of exchange controls or other
circumstances beyond the control of the Issuer or is no longer used by the
government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of
transactions by public institutions within the international banking
community, then the Issuer will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the
holder of this Note by making such payments in U.S. dollars on the basis of
the Market Exchange Rate on the date of such payment or, if the Market
Exchange Rate is not available on such date, as of the most recent practicable
date. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars where the
required payment is in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars will not
constitute an Event of Default.
If payment in respect of this Note is required to be made in
ECUs and ECUs are unavailable due to the imposition of exchange controls or
other circumstances beyond the Issuer's control or are no longer used as
either the unit of account of the European Community or as the currency of the
European Union, then all payments in respect of this Note shall be made in
U.S. dollars until ECUs are again available or so used. The amount of each
payment in U.S. dollars shall be computed on the basis of the equivalent of
the ECU in U.S. dollars, determined as described below, as of the second
Business Day prior to the date on which such payment is due.
The equivalent of the ECU in U.S. dollars as of any date shall
be determined by the Issuer or its agent on the following basis. The
component currencies of the ECU for this purpose (the "Components") shall be
the currency amounts that were components of the ECU as of the last date on
which the ECU was used as the unit of account of the European Community. The
equivalent of the ECU in U.S. dollars shall be calculated by aggregating the
U.S. dollar equivalents of the Components. The U.S. dollar equivalent of each
of the Components shall be determined by the Issuer or such agent on the basis
of the most recently available Market Exchange Rates for such Components.
All determinations referred to above made by the Issuer or its
agent shall be at its sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest
error, be conclusive to the extent permitted by law for all purposes and
binding on the holder of this Note.
So long as this Note shall be outstanding, the Issuer will
cause to be maintained an office or agency for the payment of the principal of
and premium, if any, and interest on this Note as herein provided in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, and an office or agency in said
Borough of Manhattan for the registration, transfer and exchange as aforesaid
of the Notes. The Issuer may designate other agencies for the payment of said
principal, premium and interest at such place or places (subject to applicable
laws and regulations) as the Issuer may decide. So long as there shall be
such an agency, the Issuer shall keep the Trustee advised of the names and
locations of such agencies, if any are so designated.
With respect to moneys paid by the Issuer and held by the
Trustee or any Paying Agent for payment of the principal of or interest or
premium, if any, on any Notes that remain unclaimed at the end of two years
after such principal, interest or premium shall have become due and payable
(whether at maturity or upon call for redemption or otherwise), (i) the
Trustee or such Paying Agent shall notify the holders of such Notes that such
moneys shall be repaid to the Issuer and any person claiming such moneys shall
thereafter look only to the Issuer for payment thereof and (ii) such moneys
shall be so repaid to the Issuer. Upon such repayment all liability of the
Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon
cease, without, however, limiting in any way any obligation that the Issuer
may have to pay the principal of or interest or premium, if any, on this Note
as the same shall become due.
No provision of this Note or of the Senior Indenture shall
alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer, which is absolute and
unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this
Note at the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed unless otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the registered holder
of this Note.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of
transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer 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 none of the Issuer,
the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of,
premium, if any, or the interest on this Note, for any claim based hereon, or
otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Senior Indenture
or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, shareholder,
officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any
successor corporation, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor
corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or
by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such
liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for
the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.
This Note shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed
in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.
All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Senior
Indenture and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to
them in the Senior Indenture.
