All accrued Additional Interest shall be paid to Holders in the same manner as interest payments on the Notes on semi-annual payment dates that correspond to Interest Payment Dates for the Notes. All references in this Note to interest shall be deemed to include any Additional Interest payable pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement.]¹

For the purposes of this Note, the term “Business Day” means any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, that is not a day on which banking institutions or trust companies are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close in the place where the principal of and premium, if any, and interest on, or any Redemption Price or Repurchase Price of, the Notes are payable.

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the February 15 and August 18 (whether or not a Business Day) immediately preceding the applicable March 2 and September 2 Interest Payment Date. Except as otherwise provided in the Indenture, 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 may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Note is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice of which shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than 10 days prior to the Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on

Payment of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this Note and the Repurchase Price in connection with a Change of Control Triggering Event will be made at the Trustee, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts. With respect to Global Securities, the Company will make such payments by wire transfer of immediately available funds to DTC, or its nominee, as registered owner of the Global Securities. With respect to Definitive Notes, the Company will make such payments, subject to surrender of such Note at the Trustee, except in the case of installments of interest, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a United States Dollar account maintained in New York, New York to each Holder of an aggregate principal amount of Notes in excess of $5,000,000 that has furnished wire instructions in writing to the Trustee no later than 15 days prior to the relevant payment date. If a Holder of a Definitive Note (i) does not furnish such wire instructions as provided in the preceding sentence or (ii) holds $5,000,000 or less aggregate principal amount of Notes, the Company will make such payments by mailing or causing to be mailed a check to such Holder’s registered address.

The Notes are not redeemable prior to the Maturity Date, except as set forth on the reverse of this Note and will not be subject to any sinking fund.

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

(b) If the proposed transfer is a transfer of a beneficial interest in one Global Security to a beneficial interest in another Global Security, the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the Global Security to which such interest is being transferred in an amount equal to the principal amount of the interest to be so transferred, and the Security Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and a corresponding decrease in the principal amount of the Global Security from which such interest is being transferred.

(c) If the Company determines (upon the advice of counsel and with such other certifications and evidence as the Company may reasonably require) that a Note is eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (or a successor provision) without the need for current public information and that the Private Placement Legend in Section 3.02 hereto is no longer necessary or appropriate in order to ensure that subsequent transfers of the Note (or a beneficial interest therein) are effected in compliance with the Securities Act, the Company may instruct the Trustee to cancel the Note and issue to the Holder thereof (or to its transferee) a new Note in any authorized denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, registered in the name of the Holder thereof (or its transferee), that does not bear the Private Placement Legend, and the Trustee will comply with such instruction.

41

(b) No Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to any payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on such Note or with respect to any payment on a guarantee to any Holder who is a fiduciary or any person other than the sole beneficial owner of such payment, to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or the beneficial owner of such payment would not have been entitled to the Additional Amounts had such beneficiary, settlor or beneficial owner held such Note directly.

(c) The Payor will (1) make any required withholding or deduction and (2) remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the applicable taxing authority in the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law.

(d) Each Payor will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary taxes or property taxes, charges or similar levies (including interest and penalties to the extent resulting from a failure by the Company to timely pay amounts due) that arise in any jurisdiction from the execution, delivery or registration of any Notes or any other document or instrument referred to therein (other than a transfer of the Notes), excluding any such taxes, charges or similar levies imposed by any jurisdiction that is not a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction or any jurisdiction in which a Paying Agent is located, other than those resulting from, or required to be paid in connection with, the enforcement of the Notes or any other such document or instrument following the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

42

(e) The foregoing obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the Indenture and will apply mutatis mutandis to any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction with respect to any Successor Person to a Payor.

(f) Any reference in the Indenture to principal, premium or interest in respect of the Notes of a series will be deemed also to refer to any Additional Amounts that may be payable with respect to such principal, premium or interest under the obligations referred to in this subsection.
