If S&P discontinues publication of the Index and/or Price Return Index or does not make the Index constituents, their share weightings and/or Index Divisor available to the VWAP Calculation Agent prior to, and such discontinuation or unavailability is continuing on, the Calculation Date or any Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or on the Redemption Valuation Date, as applicable, or any other relevant date on which the VWAP Level is to be determined and the Security Calculation Agent determines that no Successor Indices are available at such time, or the Security Calculation Agent has previously selected Successor Indices and publication of such Successor Indices are discontinued prior to, and such discontinuation is continuing on the Calculation Date or any Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or on the Redemption Valuation Date, as applicable, or any other relevant date on which the VWAP Level is to be determined, then the Security Calculation Agent will determine the relevant VWAP Levels using the VWAP and published share weighting of each Price Return Index constituent included in the Price Return Index or successor Price Return Index, as applicable, immediately prior to such discontinuation or unavailability, as adjusted for certain corporate actions.

In that event, the Security Calculation Agent will cause notice thereof to be furnished to the Trustee, to the Company and to the Holders.

If at any time the method of calculating the Index, Price Return Index or Successor Indices, or the value thereof, is changed in a material respect, or if the Index, Price Return Index or a Successor Indices are in any other way modified so that the VWAP Level or Index Closing Level of the Index or such Successor Indices do not, in the opinion of the Security Calculation Agent, fairly represent the VWAP Level or Index Closing Level of the Index or such Successor Index had such changes or modifications not been made, then the Security Calculation Agent will make such calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Security Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a VWAP Level and Index Closing Level of an index comparable to the Index or such Successor Index, as the case may be, as if such changes or modifications had not been made, and the Security Calculation Agent will calculate the VWAP Levels and Index Closing Levels for the Index or such Successor Index with reference to the Index or such Successor Index, as adjusted. The Security Calculation Agent will accordingly calculate the Final VWAP Level, the Inverse Index Performance Amount, the Index Performance Percentage, the Monthly Performance Ratio, the Index Closing Level, the Current Indicative Value, the Redemption Fee Amount, the Fee Amount, the Accrued Stock Borrow Fees and the Closing Indicative Security Value, if any, that the Company will pay at maturity, call, acceleration or redemption, based on the relevant VWAP Levels calculated by the VWAP Calculation Agent, as adjusted, and the Monthly Initial Closing Level and Monthly Performance Ratio based on the relevant Index Closing Level calculated by the Security Calculation Agent, as adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the Index, Price Return Index or a Successor Indices are modified so that the level of the Index or such Successor Index is a fraction of what it would have been if there had been no such modification (e.g., due to a split in the Index), which, in turn, causes the VWAP Level or Index Closing Level of the Index or such Successor Index to be a fraction of what it would have been if there had been no such modification, then the Security Calculation Agent will make such calculations and adjustments in order to arrive at a VWAP Level and an Index Closing Level for the Index or such Successor Index as if it had not been modified (e.g., as if such split had not occurred).

To the extent a Disrupted Day exists with respect to an Index constituent on a on an Averaging Date (as defined above) or on a Redemption Valuation Date, the VWAP and published share weighting with respect to such Index constituent (and only with respect to such Index constituent) for such Averaging Date or Redemption Valuation Date will be determined by the Security Calculation Agent or one of its affiliates on the

first succeeding Index Business Day that is not a Disrupted Day (the “Deferred Averaging Date”) with respect to such Index constituent irrespective of whether pursuant to such determination, the Deferred Averaging Date would fall on a date originally scheduled to be an Averaging Date. If the postponement described in the preceding sentence results in the VWAP of a particular Index constituent being calculated on a day originally scheduled to be an Averaging Date, for purposes of determining the VWAP Levels on the Index Business Days during the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or on the Redemption Valuation Date, as applicable, the Security Calculation Agent or one of its affiliates, as the case may be, will apply the VWAP with respect to such Index constituent for such Deferred Averaging Date to the calculation of the VWAP Level (i) on the date(s) of the original disruption with respect to such Index constituent and (ii) such Averaging Date.

In no event, however, will any postponement pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph result in the final Averaging Date or the Redemption Valuation Date, as applicable, with respect to any Index constituent occurring more than three Index Business Days following the day originally scheduled to be such final Averaging Date or the Redemption Valuation Date. If the third Index Business Day following the date originally scheduled to be the final Averaging Date or the Redemption Valuation Date, as applicable, is not an Index Business Day or is a Disrupted Day with respect to such Index constituent, the Security Calculation Agent or one of its affiliates will determine the VWAP and share weighting with respect to any Index constituent required to be determined for the purpose of calculating the applicable VWAP Level based on its good faith estimate of the VWAP and share weighting of each such Index constituent that would have prevailed on the Primary Exchange on such third Index Business Day but for such suspension or limitation.

The Index Closing Level on any Monthly Valuation Date, the last Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or on the Redemption Valuation Date, will be determined based on the closing level of the Index or alternative calculation of the Index published following the regular official weekday close of the principal trading session of the relevant exchange for such index. The Security Calculation Agent or one of its affiliates, as the case may be, will determine the Index Closing Level on any Monthly Valuation Date, last Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or Redemption Valuation Date. Any Monthly Valuation Date, last Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or Redemption Valuation Date, may be postponed, and thus the determination of the Index Closing Level may be postponed, if the Security Calculation Agent determines that, on any Monthly Valuation Date, the last Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or on the Redemption Valuation Date, a Market Disruption Event with respect to the Index has occurred or is continuing. If such a postponement occurs, the Security Calculation Agent will use the Index Closing Level on the first Index Business Day on which no Market Disruption Event with respect to the Index occurs or is continuing, and the Monthly Valuation Date, last Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or Redemption Valuation Date, will be postponed to the next following Index Business Day. Notwithstanding the occurrence of one or more Market Disruption Events, the Security Calculation Agent in its discretion may waive its right to postpone the Monthly Valuation Date, last Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or the Redemption Valuation Date, if it determines that one or more Market Disruption Events has not and is not likely to materially impair its ability to determine the Index Closing Level. In no event, however, will the determination of the Index Closing Level be postponed by more than three Index Business Days.

If the determination of the Index Closing Level is postponed to the last possible day, but a Market Disruption Event with respect to the Index occurs or is continuing on that day, that day will nevertheless be the date on which the Index Closing Level will be determined by the Security Calculation Agent, and the Monthly Valuation Date, last Index Business Day in the Final Measurement Period, Call Measurement Period or Acceleration Measurement Period, or Redemption Valuation Date, will be the next Index Business Day. In such

 

(Face of Security continued on next page)

–12–


an event, the Security Calculation Agent will make a good faith estimate in its sole discretion of the Index Closing Level that would have prevailed in the absence of the Market Disruption Event.

The Security Calculation Agent shall have the right to make all determinations and adjustments with respect to the Index in its sole discretion.

4. Payment at Maturity, Upon Early Redemption, Upon Acceleration, or on the Call Settlement Date

The payment of this Security that becomes due and payable on the Maturity Date, a Redemption Date, the Acceleration Date or the Call Settlement Date, as the case may be, shall be the cash amount that must be paid to redeem this Security as provided herein under “Payment at Maturity,” “Early Redemption,” “Acceleration upon Minimum Indicative Value or Maximum Intraday Index Value” and “Call Right,” respectively. The payment of this Security that becomes due and payable upon acceleration of the Maturity Date hereof after an Event of Default has occurred pursuant to the Indenture shall be the Default Amount. When the principal referred to in either of the two preceding sentences has been paid as provided herein (or such payment has been made available), the principal of this Security shall be deemed to have been paid in full, whether or not this Security shall have been surrendered for payment or cancellation. References to the payment at maturity, acceleration upon early redemption or call of this Security on any day shall be deemed to mean the payment of cash that is payable on such day as provided in this Security. This Security shall cease to be Outstanding as provided in the definition of such term in the Indenture when the principal of this Security shall be deemed to have been paid in full as provided above.

5. Procedure for Early Redemption

Subject to the minimum redemption amount provided under “Early Redemption,” the Holder may require the Company to redeem the Holder’s Securities during the term of the Securities on any Redemption Date on or after October 13, 2010 to and including September 19, 2040, provided that such Holder instructs its broker or other person through whom the Securities are held to (i) deliver a redemption notice to the Company via email no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Redemption Valuation Date; (ii) deliver the signed redemption confirmation to the Company via facsimile in the specified form by 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the same day; (iii) instruct the Holder’s DTC custodian to book a delivery versus payment trade with respect to the Holder’s Securities on the applicable Redemption Valuation Date at a price equal to the redemption amount; and (iv) cause the Holder’s DTC custodian to deliver the trade as booked for settlement via DTC prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York City time) on the applicable Redemption Date.

6. Call Right

The Securities are subject to redemption upon not less than eighteen (18) calendar days’ prior notice on any Exchange Business Day on or after October 3, 2011 through and including the Maturity Date, as a whole and not in part, at the election of the Company. If the Company elects to redeem the Securities on the Call Settlement Date, the Holder will receive a cash payment equal to the Closing Indicative Security Value.

7. Role of Security Calculation Agent and VWAP Calculation Agent

The Security Calculation Agent will be solely responsible for all determinations and calculations regarding the value of the Securities, including, at maturity or upon early redemption or call, or at other times, the Current Principal Amount, the Closing Indicative Security Value, the Inverse Index Performance Amount, the Index Performance Percentage, the Financing Level, the Accrued Financing Payment, the Fee Amount, the Accrued Stock Borrow Fees, the Current Indicative Value, the Monthly Reset Factor, the Monthly Performance

Ratio, the Redemption Fee Amount and whether any day is a Business Day, Index Business Day or an Exchange Business Day and all such other matters as may be specified elsewhere herein as matters to be determined by the Security Calculation Agent. The Security Calculation Agent shall make all such determinations and calculations in its sole discretion, and absent manifest error, all determinations of the Security Calculation Agent shall be final and binding on the Company, the Holder and all other Persons having an interest in this Security, without liability on the part of the Security Calculation Agent. The Holder of this Security shall not be entitled to any compensation from the Company for any loss suffered as a result of any determinations or calculations made by the Security Calculation Agent.

The Company shall take such action as shall be necessary to ensure that there is, at all relevant times, a financial institution serving as the Security Calculation Agent hereunder.

The Company may, in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time, upon written notice to the Trustee, but without notice to the Holder of this Security, terminate the appointment of any Person serving as the Security Calculation Agent and appoint another Person (including any Affiliate of the Company) to serve as the Security Calculation Agent. Insofar as this Security provides for the Security Calculation Agent to determine the Current Principal Amount, the Closing Indicative Security Value, the Inverse Index Performance Amount, the Index Performance Percentage, the Financing Level, the Accrued Financing Payment, the Fee Amount, the Accrued Stock Borrow Fees, the Current Indicative Value, the Monthly Reset Factor, the Monthly Performance Ratio, the Redemption Fee Amount and whether any day is a Business Day, Index Business Day or an Exchange Business Day and all such other matters as may be specified elsewhere herein as matters to be determined by the Security Calculation Agent on any date or other information from any institution or other source, the Security Calculation Agent may do so from any source or sources of the kind contemplated or otherwise permitted hereby notwithstanding that any one or more of such sources are the Security Calculation Agent, affiliates of the Security Calculation Agent or affiliates of the Company.

NYSE will initially act as the VWAP Calculation Agent. The VWAP Calculation Agent will determine the Initial VWAP Level. The VWAP Calculation Agent will determine the VWAP of any Index constituent, the VWAP Level, Price Return VWAP Level and the Final VWAP Level on any Index Business Day on which such VWAP, VWAP Level, Price Return VWAP Level and Final VWAP Level are to be determined during the term of the Securities, except as otherwise provided under Section 3 hereof. All determinations made by the VWAP Calculation Agent will be at the sole discretion of the VWAP Calculation Agent and will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holders and on the Issuer. The Company may, in its sole discretion at any time and from time to time, upon written notice to the Trustee, but without notice to the Holder of this Security, terminate the appointment of any Person serving as the VWAP Calculation Agent and appoint another Person (including any Affiliate of the Company) to serve as the VWAP Calculation Agent.

8. Tax Characterization

By its purchase of this Security, the Holder, on behalf of itself and any other Person having a beneficial interest in this Security, hereby agrees with the Company (in the absence of a statutory, regulatory, administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary) to treat this Security for all U.S. federal income tax purposes as a prepaid derivative contract with respect to the Index.

9. Payment

Payment of any amount payable on this Security 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. Payment will be made to an account designated by the Holder (in writing to the Company and the Trustee on or before the Calculation Date, Call Valuation Date, Acceleration Date or applicable Redemption Valuation Date) and acceptable to the Company or, if no such account is designated and acceptable as aforesaid, at the office or agency of the Company

maintained for that purpose in The City of New York; provided, however, that payment on the Maturity Date, Call Settlement Date or any Redemption Date shall be made only upon surrender of this Security at such office or agency (unless the Company waives surrender). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Security is a Global Security, any payment may be made pursuant to the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary as permitted in said Indenture.

All dollar amounts related to the determination of the Current Principal Amount, the Closing Indicative Security Value, the Inverse Index Performance Amount, the Current Indicative Value, the Fee Amount, the Accrued Stock Borrow Fees, the Accrued Financing Payment and the Redemption Fee Amount, if any, per Security, and the Financing Level, will be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth, with five one hundred-thousandths rounded upward (e.g., .76545 would be rounded up to .7655); and all dollar amounts paid on the aggregate principal amount of Securities per Holder will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward.

10. Reverse of this Security

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

11. Certificate of Authentication

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee referred to on the reverse hereof by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

(Reverse of Security)

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”) issued and to be issued in one or more series under the Indenture, dated as of November 21, 2000, as amended and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of February 28, 2006 (herein called the “Indenture,” which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the Holders and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. Insofar as the provisions of the Indenture may conflict with the provisions set forth on the face of this Security, the latter shall control for purposes of this Security.

This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, limited to an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $100,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in any other currency or currencies or currency units), which amount may be increased at the option of the Company if in the future it determines that it may wish to sell additional Securities of this series. References herein to “this series” mean the series designated on the face hereof.

Payments under the Securities will be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, duty, assessment or governmental charge (“Taxes”) imposed upon or as a result of such payments by Switzerland or any jurisdiction in which a branch of the Company through which the Securities are issued is located (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein) (a “Relevant Jurisdiction”), unless required by law. To the extent any such Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Company will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth in Section 1007 of the Indenture, pay such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) to the Holder of any Security who is not a resident of the Relevant Jurisdiction as may be necessary in order that every net payment of the principal of such Security and any other amounts payable on such Security, after withholding for or on account of such Taxes imposed upon or as a result of such payment, will not be less than the amount provided for in such Security to be then due and payable.

In addition to its ability to redeem this Security pursuant to the foregoing, if at any time as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws or regulations of a Relevant Jurisdiction affecting taxation, or a change in any application or interpretation of such laws or regulations (including the decision of any court or tribunal) either generally or in relation to any particular Securities, which change, amendment, application or interpretation becomes effective on or after the Initial Trade Date in making any payment of, or in respect of, the principal amount of the Securities, the Company would be required to pay any Additional Amounts with respect thereto, then the Securities will be redeemable upon not less than ten nor more than sixty days’ notice by mail, at any time thereafter, in whole but not in part, at the election of the Company as provided in the Indenture at a redemption price determined by the Security Calculation Agent in a manner reasonably calculated to preserve the relative economic position of the Company and the Holders of Outstanding Securities.

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 each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected (considered together as one class for this purpose). The Indenture also contains provisions (i) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of all series to be affected under the Indenture (considered together as one class for this purpose), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and (ii) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of any series to be affected under the Indenture (with each such series considered separately for this purpose), on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such

 

(Reverse of Security continued on next page)


consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for sixty days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof on or after the respective due dates expressed herein.

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of this Security as herein provided.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of this Security is 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 his attorney duly authorized in writing. Thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate Principal Amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

This Security, and any other Securities of this series and of like tenor, are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of any multiple of $25.00. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder 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 Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

This Security is a Global Security and is subject to the provisions of the Indenture relating to Global Securities, including the limitations in Section 305 thereof on transfers and exchanges of Global Securities.

This Security and the Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
