Dated: July 3, 2001 CITIBANK, N.A. as Trustee By: ----------------------------- Authorized Signatory [Form of Reverse of Security] This Security is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Company designated as 10 Uncommon Values(R) Index SUNS(SM), Stock Upside Note Securities(SM) Notes Due July 3, 2004 (herein called the "Securities"). The Company may, without the consent of the holders of the Securities, create and issue additional notes ranking equally with the Securities and otherwise similar in all respects so that such further notes shall be consolidated and form a single series with the Securities; provided that no additional notes can be issued if an Event of Default has occurred with respect to the Securities. This series of Securities is one of an indefinite number of series of debt securities of the Company, issued and to be issued under an indenture, dated as of September 1, 1987, as amended (herein called the "Indenture"), duly executed and delivered by the Company and Citibank N.A., as trustee (herein called the "Trustee", which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities. The Average Index Level used to calculate the Alternative Redemption Amount shall be determined by the Calculation Agent. All percentages resulting from any calculation with respect to the Securities will be rounded at the Calculation Agent's discretion. The Trustee shall fully rely on the determination by the Calculation Agent of the Maturity Payment Amount and shall have no duty to make any such determination. This Security is not subject to any sinking fund and is not redeemable prior to its Stated Maturity. If an Event of Default with respect to the Securities shall occur and be continuing, the amounts payable on all of the Securities may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The amount payable to the Holder hereof upon any acceleration permitted under the Indenture will be equal to the Maturity Payment Amount calculated as though the date of acceleration was the Stated Maturity and the date five Business Days prior thereto was the last Calculation Date. The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than 66"% in aggregate principal amount of each series of Securities at the time Outstanding to be affected (each series voting as a class), evidenced as in the Indenture provided, to execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or modifying in any manner the rights of the holders of the Securities of all such series; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that no such supplemental indenture shall, among other things, (i) change the fixed maturity of any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon or reduce any premium payable on redemption, or make the principal thereof, or premium, if any, or interest therein payable in 2 any coin or currency other than that hereinabove provided, without the consent of the holder of each Security so affected, or (ii) change the place of payment on any Security, or impair the right to institute suit for payment on any Security, or reduce the aforesaid percentage of Securities, the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture, without the consent of the holders of each Security so affected. It is also provided in the Indenture that, prior to any declaration accelerating the maturity of any series of Securities, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of such series Outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all the Securities of such series waive any past default or Event of Default under the Indenture with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default in the payment of interest, if any or the principal of, or premium if any, on any of the Securities of such series, or in the payment of any sinking fund installment or analogous obligation with respect to Securities of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future holders and owners of this Security and any Securities which may be issued in exchange or substitution hereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation thereof is made upon this Security or such other Securities. 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 amount with respect to this Security. The Securities are issuable in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000. The Company, the Trustee, and any agent of the Company or of the Trustee may deem and treat the registered holder (the "Holder") hereof as the absolute owner of this Security (whether or not this Security shall be overdue and notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon), for the purpose of receiving payment hereof, or on account hereof, and for all other purposes and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or of the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments made to or upon the order of such registered holder shall, to the extent of the sum or sums paid, effectually satisfy and discharge liability for moneys payable on this Security. No recourse for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on this Security, or for any claim based hereon or otherwise in respect hereof, and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto or in any Security, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Company 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. 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 3 for registration of transfer at the Corporate Trust Office or agency in a Place of Payment for this Security, 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 such Holder's attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series or of like tenor and of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

"Closing Price," means the following, determined by the Calculation Agent based on information reasonably available to it: (i) If the Index Security is listed on a United States national securities exchange, trading system or is a NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc. security, the last reported sale price at the Close of Trading, regular way, on such day, on the primary securities exchange or trading system registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 on which such Index Security is listed or admitted to trading or NASDAQ Stock Market, Inc., as the case may be.

Notwithstanding the first sentence of this paragraph, a Market Disruption Event for an Index Security traded on a bulletin board means a suspension, absence or material limitation of trading of such Index Security for more than two hours or during the one hour period preceding 4:00 p.m., New York City time. (ii) A suspension, absence or material limitation has occurred on that day, in each case, for more than two hours of trading or during the one-half hour period preceding the Close of Trading in options contracts related to such Index Security, whether by reason of movements in price exceeding levels permitted by an exchange, trading system or market on which options contracts related to such Index Security are traded or otherwise.
