              The Corporation and the purchaser of this Note have agreed that this Note is an Extendible Note, whereby the Corporation has the option to extend the maturity of this Note for one or more whole year periods, as set forth below (each, an "Extension Period"), up to but not beyond the Final Maturity Date set forth below, under the terms of this Note as supplemented by this Extendible Note Rider.

            The Corporation may exercise its option with respect hereto by delivery to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) of notice of such exercise at least 45 but not more than 60 days prior to the Stated Maturity Date originally in effect with respect hereto or, if the Stated Maturity Date has already been extended, prior to the maturity date then in effect (each, an "Extended Maturity Date"). After such receipt and not later than 40 days prior to the Stated Maturity Date or an Extended Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, a "Maturity Date"), the Trustee (or any duly appointed Paying Agent) will mail first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder hereof a notice (the "Extension Notice") relating to such extension period (the "Extension Period") setting forth (i) the election of the Corporation to extend the maturity hereof, (ii) the new Extended Maturity Date, (iii) the interest rate applicable to the Extension Period, and (iv) 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 Trustee (or any duly appointed Paying Agent) of an Extension Notice to the registered holder hereof, the maturity hereof shall be extended automatically as set forth in such Extension Notice, and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice.

              Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 days prior to the Maturity Date hereof (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately succeeding Business Day), the Corporation, at its option, may revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by mailing or causing the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) to mail notice of such higher interest rate, first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder hereof. Such notice shall be irrevocable. Thereafter, this Note will bear such higher interest rate for the Extension Period.

              If the Corporation elects to extend the maturity hereof, the registered holder hereof will have the option to elect repayment hereof by the Corporation on the Maturity Date then in effect 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 the Maturity Date, the Corporation must receive, at least 15 days but not more than 30 days prior to the Maturity Date then in effect with respect hereto, (i) this Note with the form "Option to Elect Repayment" on the reverse hereof 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 trust company in the United States setting forth the name of the registered holder hereof, the principal amount hereof to be repaid, the certificate number, or a description of the tenor and terms hereof, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby, and a guarantee that this Note, together with the duly completed form entitled "Option to Elect Repayment" attached hereto, will be received by the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or letter, provided, however, that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or letter shall only be effective if this Note and duly completed form are received by the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) by such fifth Business Day. Such option may be exercised by the registered holder hereof for less than the aggregate principal amount hereof then outstanding, provided that the principal amount hereof remaining outstanding after repayment is an integral multiple of $1,000 unless otherwise stated on the face hereof.
