The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest; provided, however, that interest payable at Maturity will be payable to the Person to whom principal shall be payable. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and shall be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date (which shall be not less than five Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted interest) established by notice given by mail by or on behalf of the Company to the Holder of this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) not less than 15 calendar days preceding such special record date (the “Special Record Date”).

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 an Indenture dated as of October 2, 1990, as supplemented from time to time (herein called the “Indenture”), among the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor to Continental Bank, 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 statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof. The Securities of this series may be denominated in different currencies, bear different dates, mature at different times and bear interest at different rates. Subject to being increased by the Company pursuant to an Officers’ Certificate, the aggregate principal amount of the Securities of this series which may be authenticated and delivered pursuant to the Indenture (except as provided therein) is $400,000,000.

The Company will appoint and at all times maintain a paying agent (which may be the Trustee) authorized by the Company to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on any Securities of this series on behalf of the Company and having an office or agency in The City of New York, New York or The City of Chicago, Illinois where Securities of this series may be presented or surrendered for payment and where notices, designations or requests in respect of payments with respect to Securities of this series may be served. The Company has initially appointed The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. as such paying agent, with its Corporate Trust Office currently at 101 Barclay Street, New York, New York 10286. The Company will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in such appointment.

Funds for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security due in United States dollars on any Interest Payment Date or at Maturity will be made available to the Trustee on such date. As soon as possible thereafter, the Trustee will pay such funds to the Depositary, and the Depositary will allocate and pay such funds to the owners of beneficial interests in this Security in accordance with its existing operating procedures.

The principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security are payable by the Company in the Specified Currency set forth above.

Interest payments for this Security will include interest accrued to, but excluding, the Interest Payment Dates. Interest payments for this Security shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months unless otherwise specified.

Any payment on this Security due on any day which is not a Market Day need not be made on such day, but may be made on the next succeeding Market Day with the same force and effect as if made on such due date, and no interest shall be payable on the date of payment for the period from and after such due date.

“Business Day,” with respect to any particular location, means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday which is not a day on which banking institutions in such location are authorized by law or regulation to close. “Market Day” means any Business Day in The City of New York.

This Security will be redeemable as a whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, in accordance with Article Twelve of the Indenture, at a redemption price equal to the greater of the following amounts: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities being redeemed on the redemption date specified in a notice of redemption (each, a “Redemption Date”) and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Securities being redeemed on the Redemption Date (not including any portion of any payments of interest accrued to the Redemption Date) discounted to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Adjusted Treasury Rate, plus 25 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Securities being redeemed to the Redemption Date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on this Security that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular or Special Record Date according to the Indenture.

For the purposes of the optional redemption provisions of this Security, the following defined terms will be applicable:

“Adjusted Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of this Security that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of this Security.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains three or fewer Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations.

“Quotation Agent” means Banc of America Securities LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC or another Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of Banc of America Securities LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (or their respective affiliates which are Primary Treasury Dealers), and the respective successors of the foregoing; provided, however, that if either of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer; and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by that Reference Treasury Dealer at 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding such Redemption Date.

On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Securities of this series or any portion of the Securities of this series called for redemption (unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price and accrued interest). On or before the Redemption Date, the Company shall deposit with a paying agent (or the Trustee) money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the Securities of this series to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Securities of this series are to be redeemed, the Securities of this series to be redeemed shall be selected by lot by DTC, in the case of Securities represented by a Global security, or by the Trustee by a method the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate, in the case of Securities that are not represented by a global security.

The Securities of this series will not be entitled to the benefit of any mandatory redemption or sinking fund.

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company will make an offer (a “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder to repurchase all or any part (in integral multiples of $1,000) of each Holder’s Securities of this series at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Securities of this series repurchased, if any, to the date of purchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Securities of this series on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date (the “Change of Control Payment”). Within 30 days following any Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company shall mail a notice to Holders of the Securities of this series describing the transaction or transactions that constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event, stating:

The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of the Securities of this series as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Change of Control provisions of the Securities of this series, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations under the Change of Control provisions of the Securities of this series by virtue of such compliance.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful,

The Company will publicly announce the results of the Change of Control Offer on or as soon as practicable after the Change of Control Payment Date.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Change of Control provisions of the Securities of this series, the Company shall not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Triggering Event if (1) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth herein and purchases all Securities of this series validly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer; or (2) notice of redemption has been mailed within 30 days after such Change of Control Triggering Event stating that all of the Securities of this series will be redeemed in accordance with this Security and the Indenture, unless and until there is a default in the payment of the applicable redemption price.
