Exchange Ratio:............................ , subject to adjustment for certain corporate events. See "Adjustments to Exchange Ratio" below. Exchange Date:.............................

On or after the Notice Date, subject to a call of this Note for Cash by the Issuer, the holder of this Note shall continue to be entitled to exercise the Exchange Right and receive any amounts described under "Exchange Right" above.

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 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 shall be deemed to be no longer 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. Morgan Stanley Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the "Issuer"), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or registered assignees, the principal sum of U.S. $50,000,000 (United States Dollars Fifty Million), on the Original Maturity Date specified above or, if the maturity hereof is extended in accordance with the procedures set forth below to an Extended Maturity Date, as defined below, on such Extended Maturity Date (except to the extent previously redeemed or repaid) and to pay interest thereon at the Interest Rate per annum specified above or, if the interest rate hereon is reset or re-established in connection with an extension of maturity in accordance with the procedures specified on the reverse hereof, at the interest rate per annum determined pursuant to such procedures, from the Interest Accrual Date specified above until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment (except as provided below), semiannually in arrears on the first day of March and September in each year (each such date an "Interest Payment Date") commencing on the Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Interest Accrual Date specified above, and at maturity (or on any redemption or repayment date); provided, however, that if the Interest Accrual Date occurs between a Record Date, as defined below, and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date succeeding the Interest Accrual Date to the registered holder of this Note on the Record Date with respect to such second Interest Payment Date; and provided, further, that if this Note is subject to "Annual Interest Payments," interest payments shall be made annually in arrears and the term "Interest Payment Date" shall be deemed to mean the first day of March in each year.

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.
