The Issuer has appointed JPMorgan Chase 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, 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. Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof, 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 hereof, 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. 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.

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 (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. 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 6 York, at least 15 but not more than 30 calendar 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 and the principal amount shall be an authorized denomination. If so indicated on the face of this Note, this Note will be subject to repayment at the option of the holder of this Note upon the request of the estate of a deceased owner of a beneficial ownership interest in this Note (a "Survivor's Option") on the terms set forth herein. If a Survivor's Option is applicable, subject to the Annual Put Limitation and the Individual Put Limitation (each as defined below), this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part in increments of $1,000 (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. For this Note to be repaid at the option of the holder hereof, the deceased beneficial owner's Authorized Representative (as defined below) must provide the following items to the participant (the "Participant") of The Depository Trust Company (the "Depositary") through which the related beneficial interest in this Note is owned: (a) a written instruction to such Participant, to notify the Depositary of the Authorized Representative's desire to obtain repayment pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option; (b) appropriate evidence that (i) the deceased was the owner of a beneficial interest in this Note at the time of death and for at least six months prior to his or her death, (ii) the death of the owner has occurred and (iii) the Authorized Representative has authority to act on behalf of the deceased owner; (c) if the beneficial interest in this Note is held by a nominee of the deceased owner, a certificate or letter from the nominee attesting to the deceased owner's ownership of a beneficial interest in this Note; (d) a written request for repayment signed by the Authorized Representative of the deceased beneficial owner (which includes a detailed description of the Note, including CUSIP number and Maturity Date, the deceased's social security number and the date of death of the deceased), with signature guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national 7 securities exchange or of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States; (e) if applicable, a properly executed assignment or endorsement; (f) tax waivers and any other instruments or documents reasonably required in order to establish the validity of the ownership of the beneficial interest in this Note and the claimant's entitlement to payment; and (g) any additional information reasonably required to document the ownership or authority to exercise the Survivor's Option and to cause the repayment of this Note. Following receipt of the items listed in (a) through (g) above, the applicable Participant will deliver each of the items to the Trustee, together with evidence satisfactory to the Trustee from the Participant stating that it represents the deceased owner of the beneficial interest in this Note. The Issuer may limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes subject to a Survivor's Option that may be exercised in any calendar year (the "Annual Put Limitation") to an amount equal to the greater of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) 5% of the principal amount of Notes outstanding under the Issuer's DirectSecurities program as of the end of the most recent calendar year and subject to the Survivor's Option. The Issuer may also limit the aggregate principal amount of Notes subject to a Survivor's Option that may be exercised in any calendar year on behalf of any individual deceased owner of a beneficial interest in this Note to $500,000 (the "Individual Put Limitation"). A valid election to exercise the Survivor's Option may not be withdrawn, unless the election is not accepted during one calendar year as a result of either the Annual Put Limitation or the Individual Put Limitation. After such exercise, the Notes with respect to which the Survivor's Option has been exercised may not be transferred prior to repayment by the Issuer. Each election to exercise the Survivor's Option will be accepted in the order received by the Trustee, except for an election the acceptance of which would contravene the Annual Put Limitation or the Individual Put Limitation. If this Note is accepted for repayment pursuant to exercise of the Survivor's Option, the principal amount and accrued interest to be repaid will be repaid no later than the first Interest Payment Date that occurs 20 or more calendar days after the date of acceptance. The Issuer shall (i) provide written notice to the Trustee at its New York office, on which notice the Trustee may conclusively rely, and to the Depositary of the principal amount of and accrued interest on this Note to be repaid, on or prior to 10:30 a.m. on the Business Day preceding the day on which such principal amount will be repaid and (ii) deliver the aggregate cash amount due with respect to the principal amount of and accrued interest on this Note to be repaid to the Trustee for delivery to the holder of this Note. The applicable Participant will be responsible for disbursing payments received from the Trustee to the Authorized Representative. Each election to exercise the Survivor's Option that is not accepted in any calendar year due to the application of the Annual Put Limitation or the Individual Put Limitation will be deemed to be resubmitted on the first day of the following calendar year in the order in which all such elections were originally received, unless the election to exercise the Survivor's Option is withdrawn after such non-acceptance. If a Note submitted for repayment pursuant to a valid election to exercise the Survivor's Option is not accepted, the Issuer shall or shall cause the 8 Trustee to deliver a written notice by first-class mail to the Authorized Representative of the deceased beneficial owner that states the reason the election to exercise the Survivor's Option was not accepted. For purposes of making a valid election to exercise the Survivor's Option: (a) The Survivor's Option must be exercised by or on behalf of the person who has authority to act on behalf of the deceased owner of a beneficial interest in this Note (which may be the personal representative of or executor of the estate of the deceased beneficial owner or the surviving joint owner with the deceased beneficial owner) under the laws of the applicable jurisdiction (the "Authorized Representative"); (b) An owner of a beneficial interest in this Note is a person who has the right, immediately prior to such person's death, to receive a pro rata share of the proceeds from the disposition of this Note, as well as the right to receive payment of a pro rata share of the principal of this Note; (c) The death of a person owning a beneficial interest in this Note in joint tenancy or tenancy by the entirety with another or others will be deemed the death of the owner of that beneficial interest in this Note, and the entire principal amount of this Note represented by such beneficial interest will be subject to repayment as described above; (d) The death of a person owning a beneficial interest in this Note by tenancy in common will be deemed the death of an owner of that beneficial interest in this Note only with respect to the deceased owner's beneficial interest in this Note. However, if a beneficial interest in this Note is held by husband and wife as tenants in common, the death of either spouse will be deemed the death of the owner of that beneficial interest in this Note, and the entire principal amount of this Note represented by such beneficial interest will be subject to repayment as described above; (e) A beneficial interest in this Note owned by a trust will be regarded as beneficially owned by each beneficiary of the trust to the extent of that beneficiary's interest in the trust. The death of a beneficiary of a trust will be deemed the death of the beneficial owner of this Note beneficially owned by the trust to the extent of the beneficiary's interest in the trust. The death of an individual who was a tenant in common in a tenancy which is the beneficiary of a trust will be deemed the death of the beneficiary of the trust only with respect to the deceased individual's beneficial interest in this Note, unless a husband and wife are the tenants in common, in which case the death of either spouse will be deemed the death of the beneficiary of the trust. (f) The death of a person who, during his or her lifetime, was entitled to substantially all of the beneficial interests of ownership in this Note will be deemed the death of the owner of that beneficial interest in this Note if the beneficial ownership interest in this Note can be established to the satisfaction of the Trustee. A beneficial interest in this Note will be deemed to exist in typical cases of nominee ownership, ownership under the Uniform Transfers to Minors Act, community property or other joint ownership arrangements between a husband and wife and custodial and trust arrangements where one 9 person has substantially all of the beneficial ownership interests in this Note during his or her lifetime. Apart from the Issuer's discretionary right to limit the aggregate principal amount of this Note subject to a Survivor's Option pursuant to the Annual Put Limitation and the Individual Put Limitation, all other questions regarding the eligibility or validity of any exercise of the Survivor's Option shall (subject to the following sentence) be determined by the Trustee, in its sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. In making any determinations hereunder, the Trustee may elect, in the exercise of its own discretion, to consult with personnel of the Issuer and seek advice of the Issuer, but it is in no way obligated to do so. The Trustee may conclusively rely on the advice provided to it by the Issuer in connection herewith, which advice the Issuer has agreed to provide upon such request and which shall be final and binding on all parties. The Trustee shall not be liable to any person for any loss arising from any election on its part to seek advice of the Issuer (whether such loss arises from any resulting delay or otherwise). 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 or the date of repayment pursuant to the exercise of the Survivor's Option), as the case may be. Unless otherwise provided on the face hereof, 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 or the date of repayment pursuant to the exercise of the Survivor's Option) 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 or the date of repayment pursuant to the exercise of the Survivor's Option), 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 or the date of repayment pursuant to the exercise of the Survivor's Option) 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, unless otherwise stated above, is issuable only in denominations of U.S. $1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000 in excess thereof. 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 Issuer and 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 10 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, pursuant to the Survivor's Option, if any, or otherwise, except the portion of such Note not required to be repurchased, or (iii) to register the transfer of or exchange Notes to be redeemed for a period of fifteen calendar days preceding the mailing of the relevant notice of redemption. 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 Issuer and 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 this Note shall at any time become mutilated, defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen and this 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, the Issuer in its discretion may execute a new Note of like tenor in exchange for this Note, but, if this Note is destroyed, lost or stolen, only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer that this 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 (i) 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 debt securities 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 aggregate principal amount of the outstanding debt securities of each affected series, voting as one class, by notice in writing to the Issuer and to the Trustee, if given by the Note holders, may then declare the principal of all debt securities of all such series and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately and (ii) 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 or insolvency of the Issuer, shall have occurred and be continuing, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of all outstanding debt securities issued under the Senior Indenture, voting as one class, by notice in writing to the Issuer and to the Trustee, if given by the Note holders, may declare the principal of all such debt securities and interest 11 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, premium, if any, or interest on such debt securities) by the holders of a majority in aggregate 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. If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to "Tax Redemption and Payment of Additional Amounts," this Note may be redeemed, as a whole, at the option of the Issuer at any time prior to maturity, upon the giving of a notice of redemption as described below, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount hereof, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption (except that if this Note is subject to "Modified Payment upon Acceleration or Redemption," such redemption price would 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 redemption, which amortization shall be calculated using the "interest method" (computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in effect on the date of redemption) (the "Amortized Amount")), if the Issuer determines that, as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws, or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, of the United States or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change in official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment becomes effective on or after the Initial Offering Date hereof, the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Amounts, as defined below, with respect to this Note as described below. Prior to the giving of any notice of redemption pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall deliver to the Trustee (i) a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to so redeem have occurred, and (ii) an opinion of independent legal counsel satisfactory to the Trustee to such effect based on such statement of facts; provided that no such notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 calendar days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay such Additional Amounts if a payment in respect of this Note were then due. 12 Notice of tax redemption will be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, which date and the applicable redemption price will be specified in the notice. If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to "Tax Redemption and Payment of Additional Amounts," the Issuer will, subject to certain exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay such additional amounts (the "Additional Amounts") to the holder of this Note who is a United States Alien (as defined below) as may be necessary in order that every net payment by the Issuer or any Paying Agent of the principal of and interest on this Note and any other amounts payable on this Note, after withholding or deduction for or on account of any present or future tax, assessment or governmental charge imposed upon or as a result of such payment by the United States, or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, will not be less than the amount provided for in this Note to be then due and payable. The Issuer will not, however, make any payment of Additional Amounts to any holder who is a United States Alien for or on account of: (a) any present or future tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been so imposed but for (i) the existence of any present or former connection between such holder, or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder of such holder, if such holder is an estate, a trust, a partnership or a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes, and the United States and its possessions, including, without limitation, such holder, or such fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member or shareholder, being or having been a citizen or resident thereof or being or having been engaged in a trade or business or present therein or having, or having had, a permanent establishment therein or (ii) the presentation by or on behalf of the holder of this Note for payment on a date more than 15 calendar days after the date on which such payment became due and payable or the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later; (b) any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, transfer, excise or personal property tax or any similar tax, assessment or governmental charge; (c) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by reason of such holder's past or present status as a personal holding company or foreign personal holding company or controlled foreign corporation or passive foreign investment company with respect to the United States or as a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid United States federal income tax or as a private foundation or other tax-exempt organization or a bank receiving interest under Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended; (d) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that is payable otherwise than by withholding or deduction from payments on or in respect of this Note; (e) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge required to be withheld by any Paying Agent from any payment of principal of, or interest on, this Note, if such payment can be made without such withholding by at least one other Paying Agent; 13 (f) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure to comply with certification, information or other reporting requirements concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the holder or beneficial owner of this Note, if such compliance is required by statute or by regulation of the United States or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein as a precondition to relief or exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge; (g) any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed by reason of such holder's past or present status as the actual or constructive owner of 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote of the Issuer or as a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Issuer; or (h) any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) or (g). In addition, the Issuer shall not be required to make any payment of Additional Amounts (i) to any such holder where such withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be made pursuant to any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings; or (ii) by or on behalf of a holder who would have been able to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting this Note or the relevant coupon to another Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union. Nor shall the Issuer pay Additional Amounts with respect to any payment on this Note to a United States Alien who is a fiduciary or partnership or other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment to the extent such payment would be required by the laws of the United States (or any political subdivision thereof) to be included in the income, for tax purposes, of a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a beneficial owner who would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor, member or beneficial owner been the holder of this Note. 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, (i) 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 modify or amend the provisions for conversion of any currency into any other currency, or modify or amend the provisions for conversion or exchange of the debt security for securities of the Issuer or other entities or for other property or the cash value of the property (other than as provided in the antidilution provisions or other similar adjustment provisions of the debt securities or otherwise in accordance with the terms thereof), or impair or affect the rights of any holder to institute suit for the payment thereof or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage in principal amount of debt securities of any series the consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture. 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 14 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. If any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings is introduced and a Paying Agent has been designated within the European Union, the Issuer will maintain a Paying Agent in a member state of the European Union that will not be obligated to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to any such Directive or law. 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.
