Dear Sirs:
 
Morgan Stanley, a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), confirms its agreement with you with respect to the issue and sale from time to time by the Company primarily outside the United States of up to $125,452,274,876 (or the equivalent thereof in one or more currencies other than U.S. dollars) aggregate initial public offering price, as such amount may be increased from time to time upon due authorization by the Company, of its Global Medium-Term Notes, Series G and Series H, each due more than nine months from the date of issue (the “ Notes ”) and its Global Units, Series G and Series H (the “ Units ” and together with the Notes, and any other securities that may be offered by post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement referred to below, the “ Program Securities ”), in each case subject to reduction result of the sale of the Company’s (i) Global Medium-Term Notes, Series F, to be sold primarily inside the United States, (ii) Global Units, Series F, to be sold primarily inside the United States, and (iii) the sale of certain of the Company’s other debt securities, warrants, common stock, preferred stock, purchase contracts and units and of capital securities of certain Morgan Stanley Capital Trusts.  The Series G Notes are intended to be admitted to listing on the Official List of the United Kingdom Financial Services Authority (the “ UK Listing Authority ”) in its capacity as United Kingdom competent authority for the purposes of Directive 2003/71/EC (the “ Prospectus Directive ”) and relevant implementing measures in the United Kingdom, and to trading on the gilt edged and fixed income market of the London Stock Exchange plc (the “ London Stock Exchange ”) or admitted to listing, trading and/or quotation by any other listing authority, stock exchange and/or quotation system, if so required by Section 3(j) hereof.  Application may, in certain circumstances described in the Prospectus Supplement (as defined below), be made to admit the Series G Units to the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and to trading on the gilt edged and fixed income market of the London Stock Exchange. The Series H Notes and the Series H Units will not be listed on any stock exchange.
 

 
The Notes may be issued as senior indebtedness (the “ Senior Notes ”) or as subordinated indebtedness (the “ Subordinated Notes ”) of the Company.  The Senior Notes will be issued, either alone or as part of a Unit, pursuant to the provisions of a senior indenture dated as of November 1, 2004, between the Company and The Bank of New York (successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank)), as trustee (the “ Senior Debt Trustee ”) (as supplemented by the First Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of September 4, 2007 and the Second Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of January 4, 2008 and as may be further supplemented or amended from time to time, the “ Senior Debt Indenture ”).  The Subordinated Notes will be issued pursuant to the provisions of a subordinated indenture dated as of October 1, 2004, between the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association), as trustee (the “ Subordinated Debt Trustee ”) (as may be supplemented or amended from time to time, the “ Subordinated Debt Indenture ”).  The Senior Debt Indenture and the Subordinated Debt Indenture are sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as an “ Indenture ” and collectively as the “ Indentures, ” and the Senior Debt Trustee and the Subordinated Debt Trustee are sometimes hereinafter referred to individually as a “ Trustee ” and collectively as the “ Trustees. ”  Purchase contracts (“ Purchase Contracts ”) that require holders to satisfy their obligations thereunder when such Purchase Contracts are issued are referred to as “ Pre-paid Purchase Contracts. ” Pre-paid Purchase Contracts that settle in cash (“ Cash-settled Pre-paid Purchase Contracts ”) generally will be issued under an Indenture.  Pre-paid Purchase Contracts that do not settle in cash (“ Physically-settled Pre-paid Purchase Contracts ”) generally will be issued under the Unit Agreement or the Unit Agreement Without Holders’ Obligations (each as defined below).
 
The Units will be issued either pursuant to the Unit Agreement dated as of November 1, 2004, among the Company, The Bank of New York (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank)), as Unit Agent, as Collateral Agent, as Trustee and Paying Agent under the Indenture referred to therein, and as Warrant Agent under the Warrant Agreement referred to therein, and the holders from time to time of the Units described therein (as may be amended from time to time, the “ Unit Agreement ”) or, if the Units do not include Purchase Contracts (or include only Pre-paid Purchase Contracts), pursuant to a Unit Agreement among the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank)), as Unit Agent, as Trustee and Paying Agent under the Indenture referred to therein, and as Warrant Agent under the Warrant Agreement referred to therein, in the form of such agreement filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement referred to below (each such agreement, a “ Unit Agreement Without Holders’ Obligations ”). 1   Units may include one or more (i) Senior Notes, (ii) warrants (“ Warrants ”) entitling the holders thereof to purchase or sell (a) securities issued by the Company or by an entity not affiliated with the Company (or securities issued by an entity affiliated with the Company in the case of Series H Units), a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities or any other property, (b) currencies, (c) commodities or (d) any combination of the foregoing, (iii) Purchase Contracts, including Pre-paid Purchase Contracts, requiring the holders thereof to purchase or sell (a) securities issued by the Company or by an entity not affiliated with the Company (or securities issued by an entity affiliated with the

Company in the case of Series H Units), a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities or any other property, (b) currencies, (c) commodities or (d) any combination of the foregoing or (iv) any combination thereof.  The applicable supplement to the Prospectus referred to below will specify whether Notes, Warrants and Purchase Contracts comprised by a Unit may or may not be separated from any series of Units.  Warrants issued as part of a Unit will be issued pursuant to the Warrant Agreement dated as of November 1, 2004 (as may be amended from time to time, the “ Warrant Agreement ”) between the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank)), as Warrant Agent.  Purchase Contracts, other than Pre-paid Purchase Contracts (“ Non-Pre-paid Purchase Contracts ”), entered into by the Company and the holders thereof will be governed by the Unit Agreement.
 
The Notes, whether issued alone or as part of a Unit, will have the maturities, interest rates, redemption provisions, if any, and other terms as set forth in the Prospectus referred to below and any Term Sheets (as defined in Section 3(m) below) referred to below.  The Warrants will have the exercise prices, exercise dates, expiration dates and other terms as set forth in the Prospectus and any Term Sheets.  The Purchase Contracts will have the closing dates, purchase or sale prices and other terms as set forth in the Prospectus and any Term Sheets.  Program Securities other than Notes and Units or any combination thereof, whether issued alone or as part of a Unit, will have the terms as set forth the Prospectus and any Term Sheets.
 
The Company has initially appointed (i) The Bank of New York, London Branch (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank), London Branch), at its principal office in London, as principal paying agent for the Senior Notes (in such capacity, the “ Senior Principal Paying Agent ”) and (ii) the Subordinated Debt Trustee (acting through The Bank of New York, London Branch (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank), London Branch), at its principal office in London, as its sub-agent) as principal paying agent for the Subordinated Notes (in such capacity, the “ Subordinated Principal Paying Agent ”).  References herein to the “ Principal Paying Agent ” are to the Senior Principal Paying Agent (in the case of duties relating to the Senior Notes) or to the Subordinated Principal Paying Agent (in the case of duties relating to the Subordinated Notes).
 
The Notes will be issued in bearer form or in definitive registered form without coupons (the “ Registered Notes ”), the Units will be issued in bearer form or in definitive registered form (the “ Registered Units ”) and the securities included in a Unit will be in the form of such Unit.  The Program Securities issued in bearer form will be represented initially by, in the case of the Notes, a temporary global Note and, in the case of the Units, a temporary global Unit.  In addition, global bearer Notes will be issued in either Classic Global Note (“ CGN ”) form or in New Global Note (“ NGN ”) form.  Temporary global bearer Notes issued in CGN form and temporary global Units will be delivered to a common depositary located outside the United States for Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (the “ Euroclear Operator ”), Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“ Clearstream ”), or any other relevant clearing system.  Temporary global Notes issued in NGN form will be delivered to a common safe-keeper (“ CSK ”) located outside the United States for the Euroclear Operator and Clearstream.  Beneficial interests in a temporary global Note or a temporary global Unit will be exchangeable for beneficial interests in, in the case of a temporary global Note, a permanent

global Note and, in the case of a temporary global Unit, a permanent global Unit.  Beneficial interests in a permanent global Note will be exchangeable in whole, in the case of a permanent global Note in CGN form, or in whole or from time to time in part, in the case of a permanent global Note in NGN form, for a definitive Note or Notes in bearer form, with interest coupons attached, upon receipt by the Principal Paying Agent of an initial request in relation to a permanent global Note in CGN form, or any request in relation to a permanent global Note in NGN form, to so exchange by any holder of a beneficial interest in such permanent global Note (such temporary global Note, permanent global Note and definitive Notes in bearer form are collectively referred to as the “ Bearer Notes ”), and Bearer Notes, if the applicable Pricing Supplement so specifies, will be exchangeable in whole or in part for Registered Notes.  Beneficial interests in a permanent global Unit (including an interest in the securities included in such Unit) will be exchangeable in whole, but not in part, for definitive Units in bearer form upon receipt by the Unit Agent of an initial request to so exchange by any holder of a beneficial interest in such permanent global Unit (such temporary global Unit, permanent global Unit and definitive Units in bearer form are collectively referred to as the “ Bearer Units ”) and Bearer Units, if the applicable Pricing Supplement so specifies, will be exchangeable in whole or in part for Registered Units.  As used in this Agreement, the term “ Note ” includes any temporary global Note or permanent global Note issued pursuant to the Indentures and the term “ Unit ” includes any temporary global Unit or permanent global Unit issued pursuant to the Unit Agreement.

6.             Indemnification and Contribution .  (a)  The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless you and each person, if any, who controls you within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each of your affiliates within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, any Company information that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, or the Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if the Company shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission
 
27

 
based upon information relating to you furnished to the Company in writing by you expressly for use therein.
 
(b)            You agree, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to you, but only with reference to information relating to you furnished to the Company in writing by you expressly for use in the Registration Statement, any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus or the Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto.
 
(c)            In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either Section 6(a) or 6(b), such person (the “ indemnified party ”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “ indemnifying party ”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding.  In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them.  It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred.  Such firm shall be designated in writing by you, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(a), and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 6(b).  The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.  Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.  No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any
 
28

 
indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
 
(d)            To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 6(a) or 6(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein in connection with any offering of Program Securities, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and you on the other hand from the offering of such Program Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 6(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 6(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and you on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.  The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and you on the other hand in connection with the offering of such Program Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of such Program Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total discounts and commissions received by you in respect thereof as set forth in the Prospectus.  The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of you on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by you and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.  Your obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to the respective principal amounts of Program Securities you have purchased in any offering of Program Securities hereunder, and not joint.
 
(e)            The Company and you agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 6(d).  The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 6(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.  Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, you shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Program Securities referred to in Section 6(d) above that were offered and sold to the public through you exceeds the amount of any damages that you have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.  No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to
 
29

 
contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.  The remedies provided for in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
 
(f)            The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 6 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company, its officers and you contained in or made pursuant to this Agreement or any Notes Terms Agreement or Units Terms Agreement will remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement or any such Notes Terms Agreement or Units Terms Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of you or any person controlling you, any of your affiliates or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Program Securities.

(a)         (i)           you have not (A) offered, sold or delivered and will not offer, sell or deliver during the Restricted Period (as defined below) Bearer Notes (whether offered alone or as part of a Unit) (including any Note that is exchangeable for Bearer Notes) directly or indirectly in the United States (as defined below) or to or for the account of any United States person (as defined below), other than to a Qualifying Foreign Branch (as defined below) or to certain other persons as provided under United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(c)(2)(i)(D)(1)(iii)(B) and (C); and (B) delivered and will not deliver within the United States definitive Bearer Notes that are sold during the Restricted Period;

(iv)            if you transfer to any affiliate Bearer Notes (whether offered alone or as part of a Unit) for the purpose of offering or selling such Bearer Notes during the Restricted Period, you will either (A) obtain from such affiliate for the benefit of the Company the representations and agreements contained in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above or (B) repeat and confirm the representations and
 
30

 
agreements contained in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above on such affiliate’s behalf and obtain from such affiliate the authority to so obligate it;
 
(v)            you will obtain for the benefit of the Company the representations and agreements contained in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) above from any person other than your affiliate with whom you enter into a written contract, within the meaning of United States Treasury Regulations Section 1.163-5(c)(2)(i)(D)(4), for the offer or sale during the Restricted Period of Bearer Notes (whether offered alone or as part of a Unit); and

(f)          In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “ Relevant Member State ”), with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State (the “ Relevant Implementation Date ”) you have not made and will not make an offer of Program Securities to the public in that Relevant Member State except that you may, with effect from and including the Relevant Implementation Date, make an offer of Program Securities to the public in that Relevant Member State:
 
(i)            if the Prospectus Supplement in relation to such Program Securities specifies that an offer of those Program Securities may be made other than pursuant to Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State (a “ Non-exempt Offer ”),  following the date of publication of a prospectus in relation to such Program Securities which has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the competent authority in that Relevant Member State, provided that any such prospectus has subsequently been completed by the Prospectus Supplement contemplating such Non-exempt Offer, in accordance with the Prospectus Directive, in the period beginning and ending on the dates specified in such prospectus or Prospectus Supplement, as applicable;

provided that no such offer of Program Securities referred to in (ii) to (v) above shall require Morgan Stanley or any agent, underwriter and dealer to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.
 
For the purposes of this Section 7(f), the expression an "offer of Program Securities to the public" in relation to any Program Securities in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the Program Securities to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the Program Securities, as the same may be varied in that Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in that Member State and the expression "Prospectus Directive" means Directive 2003/71/EC and includes any relevant implementing measure in each Relevant Member State.

The “ Bond Equivalent Yield ” means a yield calculated in accordance with the following formula and expressed as a percentage:
 
Bond Equivalent Yield =
D x N
x 100
360 − (D x M)

where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for Treasury Bills quoted on a bank discount basis, “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the interest period for which interest is being calculated.
 
Determination of CMT Rate.   If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is the “ CMT Rate ,” for any Interest Determination Date, the CMT Rate with respect to this Note shall be the rate displayed on the Designated CMT Telerate Page (as defined below) under the caption “... Treasury Constant Maturities ... Federal Reserve Board Release H.15... Mondays Approximately 3:45 p.m.,” under the column for the Designated CMT Maturity Index, as defined below, for:
 
(1)  the rate on that Interest Determination Date, if the Designated CMT Telerate Page is 7051; and
 
(2) the week or the month, as applicable, ended immediately preceding the week in which the related Interest Determination Date occurs, if the Designated CMT Telerate Page is 7052.
 
The following procedures shall be followed if the CMT Rate cannot be determined as described above:
 
(i) If the above rate is no longer displayed on the relevant page, or if not displayed by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the CMT Rate shall be the Treasury Constant Maturity rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index as published in the relevant H.15(519).
 
(ii) If the rate as described in (i) above is no longer published, or if not published by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the CMT Rate shall be the Treasury Constant Maturity Rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index or other U.S. Treasury rate for the Designated CMT Maturity Index on the Interest Determination Date as may then be published by either the Board of Governors of the
 
18

 
Federal Reserve System or the United States Department of the Treasury that the Calculation Agent determines to be comparable to the rate formerly displayed on the Designated CMT Telerate Page and published in the relevant H.15(519).
 
(iii) If the information set forth above in (ii) is not provided by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the related Calculation Date, then the Calculation Agent shall determine the CMT Rate to be a yield to maturity, based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market closing offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date, reported, according to their written records, by three leading primary U.S. government securities dealers (“ Reference Dealers ”) in The City of New York, which may include the initial dealer or another affiliate, selected by the Calculation Agent as described in the following sentence.  The Calculation Agent shall select five reference dealers (after consultation with the Issuer) and shall eliminate the highest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the highest, and the lowest quotation or, in the event of equality, one of the lowest, for the most recently issued direct noncallable fixed rate obligations of the United States (“ Treasury Notes ”) with an original maturity of approximately the Designated CMT Maturity Index, a remaining term to maturity of no more than 1 year shorter than that Designated CMT Maturity Index and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in that market at that time.  If two Treasury Notes with an original maturity as described above have remaining terms to maturity equally close to the Designated CMT Maturity Index, the quotes for the Treasury Note with the shorter remaining term to maturity shall be used.
 
(iv) If the Calculation Agent cannot obtain three Treasury Notes quotations as described in (iii) above, the Calculation Agent shall determine the CMT Rate to be a yield to maturity based on the arithmetic mean of the secondary market offer side prices as of approximately 3:30 p.m., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date of three reference dealers in The City of New York, selected using the same method described in (iii) above, for Treasury Notes with an original maturity equal to the number of years closest to but not less than the Designated CMT Maturity Index and a remaining term to maturity closest to the Designated CMT Maturity Index and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in the securities in that market at that time.
 
(v) If three or four, and not five, of the reference dealers are quoting as described in (iv) above, then the CMT Rate shall be based on the arithmetic mean of the offer prices obtained and neither the highest nor the lowest of those quotes shall be eliminated.
 
(vi) If fewer than three reference dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described in (iv) above, the CMT Rate for that Interest Determination Date shall remain the CMT Rate for the immediately preceding Interest Reset Period, or, if there was no Interest Reset Period, the rate of interest payable shall be the Initial Interest Rate.

Designated CMT Telerate Page ” means the display on Moneyline Telerate, or any successor service, on the page designated on the face hereof or any other page as may replace that page on that service for the purpose of displaying Treasury Constant Maturities as reported in H.15(519).  If no page is specified on the face hereof, the Designated CMT Telerate Page shall be 7052, for the most recent week.
 
Designated CMT Maturity Index ” means the original period to maturity of the U.S. Treasury securities, which is either 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 20 or 30 years, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement for which the CMT Rate shall be calculated.  If no maturity is specified on the face hereof, the Designated CMT Maturity Index shall be two years.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof.  The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the foregoing on or before each Calculation Date.  The interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York law, as the same may be modified by United States Federal law of general application.
 
At the request of the holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide to the holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate that will become effective as of the next Interest Reset Date.
 
Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof, interest payments on this Note will include interest accrued to but excluding the Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption or repayment date), as the case may be.  Accrued interest hereon shall be an amount calculated by multiplying (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, the principal amount hereof shown on Schedule [A] [A-1] hereto, or (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, the principal amount hereof as set forth in the records of the Relevant Clearing System, in either case by an accrued interest factor.  Such accrued interest factor shall be computed by adding the interest factor calculated for each day in the period for which interest is being paid.  Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, the interest factor for each such date shall be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day (i) by 360 if the Base Rate is CD Rate, Commercial Paper Rate, EURIBOR, Federal Funds Rate, Federal Funds (Open) Rate, Prime Rate or LIBOR (except if the Index Currency is pounds sterling); (ii) by 365 if the Base Rate is LIBOR and the Index Currency is pounds sterling; or (iii) by the actual number of days in the year if the Base Rate is the Treasury Rate or the CMT Rate.  All percentages used in or resulting from any calculation of the rate of interest on this Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth of a percentage point (with .000005% being rounded up to .00001%), and all U.S. dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations on this Note will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward.  All Japanese Yen amounts used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded downwards to the next lower whole Japanese Yen amount.  All amounts
 
20

 
denominated in any other currency used in or resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest two decimal places in such currency, with .005 being rounded up to .01.  The interest rate in effect on any Interest Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such date.  The interest rate applicable to any other day is the interest rate from the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate).
 
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.

All (and not less than all) interests in this Note will be exchanged for Definitive Bearer Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the following two sentences as soon as practicable after (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, the first beneficial owner of an interest in this Note exchanges its interest for a Definitive Bearer Note, (ii) the Issuer gives notice to the Principal Paying Agent of an acceleration of the Note or (iii) either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg or any other relevant clearing system is closed for business for a continuous period of fourteen days (other than by reason of public holidays) or announces an intention to cease business permanently or in fact does so.  In the event of any exchange of interests in this Note for a Definitive Bearer Note, (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, a common depositary located outside the United States (the “ common depositary ”) holding this Note for Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system, or (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg shall instruct the Principal Paying Agent regarding the aggregate principal amount of Definitive Bearer Notes and the denominations of such Definitive Bearer Notes that must be authenticated and delivered to each relevant clearing system in exchange for this Note.  Thereafter, the Principal Paying Agent, acting solely in reliance on such instructions, shall, upon surrender to it of this Note and subject to the conditions in the preceding paragraph, authenticate and deliver Definitive Bearer Notes in exchange for this Note in accordance with such instructions and shall, (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, cause Schedule [A] [A-1]of this Note to be endorsed to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Note, or (ii) if this
 
22

 
Note is intended to be an NGN, cause the details of such exchange to be entered in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems.  Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the further exchange of Definitive Bearer Notes into Registered Notes.
 
This Note may be transferred by delivery; provided , however , that this Note may be transferred only to a common depositary or common safe-keeper, as applicable, outside the United States for Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system or to a nominee of such a common depositary or common safe-keeper.
 
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, in the case of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note, only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee and the Issuer that this Note was destroyed, 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.
 
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, if the Issuer determines that, as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws (including a holding, judgment or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction), 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 occurs, becomes effective or, in the case of a change in official position, is announced 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.
 
Notice of 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
 
23

 
specified on the face hereof, which date and the applicable redemption price will be specified in the Notice.
 
If the Issuer shall determine that any payment made outside the United States by the Issuer or any Paying Agent of principal, premium or interest due in respect of this Note would, under any present or future laws or regulations of the United States, be subject to any certification, identification or other information reporting requirement of any kind, the effect of which is the disclosure to the Issuer, any Paying Agent or any governmental authority of the nationality, residence or identity of a beneficial owner of this Note who is a U.S. Alien (as defined below) (other than such a requirement (a) that would not be applicable to a payment made by the Issuer or any Paying Agent (i) directly to the beneficial owner or (ii) to a custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner, or (b) that can be satisfied by such custodian, nominee or other agent certifying to the effect that such beneficial owner is a U.S. Alien; provided that in each case referred to in clauses (a)(ii) and (b) payment by such custodian, nominee or agent to such beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any such requirement), the Issuer shall redeem this Note, as a whole, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, or, at the election of the Issuer if the conditions of the next succeeding paragraph are satisfied, pay the additional amounts specified in such paragraph.  The Issuer shall make such determination and election as soon as practicable, shall promptly notify the Trustee thereof and shall publish (or transmit, as applicable) prompt notice thereof (the “ Determination Notice ”) stating the effective date of such certification, identification or other information reporting requirements, whether the Issuer will redeem this Note or has elected to pay the additional amounts specified in the next succeeding paragraph, and (if applicable) the last date by which the redemption of this Note must take place, as provided in the next succeeding sentence.  If the Issuer redeems this Note, such redemption shall take place on such date, not later than one year after the publication of the Determination Notice, as the Issuer shall elect by notice to the Trustee at least 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or at least 30 calendar days prior to the last day of the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof.  Notice of such redemption of this Note will be given to the holder of this Note not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof.  Such redemption notice shall include a statement as to the last date by which this Note to be redeemed may be exchanged for Registered Notes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not so redeem this Note if the Issuer shall subsequently determine, not less than 30 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or prior to the last day of the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, that subsequent payments would not be subject to any such certification, identification or other information reporting requirement, in which case the Issuer shall publish (or transmit, as applicable) prompt notice of such determination and any earlier redemption notice shall be revoked and of no further effect.  The right of the holder of this Note to exchange this Note for Registered Notes pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph will terminate at the close of business of the Principal Paying Agent on the fifteenth day prior
 
24

 
to the date fixed for redemption, and no further exchanges of this Note for Registered Notes shall be permitted.
 
If and so long as the certification, identification or other information reporting requirements referred to in the preceding paragraph would be fully satisfied by payment of a backup withholding tax or similar charge, the Issuer may elect by notice to the Trustee to pay as additional amounts such amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment made outside the United States following the effective date of such requirements by the Issuer or any Paying Agent of principal, premium or interest due in respect of this Note of which the beneficial owner is a U.S. Alien (but without any requirement that the nationality, residence or identity of such beneficial owner be disclosed to the Issuer, any Paying Agent or any governmental authority, with respect to the payment of such additional amounts), after deduction or withholding for or on account of such backup withholding tax or similar charge (other than a backup withholding tax or similar charge that (i) would not be applicable in the circumstances referred to in the second parenthetical clause of the first sentence of the preceding paragraph, or (ii) is imposed as a result of presentation of this Note for payment more than 15 calendar days after the date on which such payment becomes due and payable or on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later), will not be less than the amount provided for in this Note to be then due and payable.  In the event the Issuer elects to pay any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall have the right to redeem this Note as a whole at any time pursuant to the applicable provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph and the redemption price of this Note will not be reduced for applicable withholding taxes.  If the Issuer elects to pay additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph and the condition specified in the first sentence of this paragraph should no longer be satisfied, then the Issuer will redeem this Note as a whole, pursuant to the applicable provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph.
 
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 U.S. Alien as may be necessary in order that every net payment 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 such holder who is a U.S. 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 U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the United States, including, without limitation, such holder, or such fiduciary, settlor,
 
25

 
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 controlled foreign corporation or passive foreign investment company with respect to the United States or as a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. 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 any other Paying Agent in a city in Western Europe;
 
(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
 
26

 
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 U.S. 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 provides that (a) if an Event of Default (as defined in the Senior Indenture) due to the default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any series of debt securities issued under the Senior Indenture, including the series of Senior Global Medium-Term Notes 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 securityholders, may then declare the principal of all debt securities of all such series and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately and (b) 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, insolvency or reorganization 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 securityholders, may declare the principal of all such debt securities and interest 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 of or 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.
 
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, (a) 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
 
27

 
thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption 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 (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage in principal amount of debt securities the consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture.
 
Except as set forth below, if the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on this Note is payable in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such Specified Currency is not available to the Issuer for making payments hereon due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Issuer or is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions within the international banking community, then the Issuer will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payments in U.S. dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the date of such payment or, if the Market Exchange Rate is not available on such date, as of the most recent practicable date; provided , however , that if the euro has been substituted for such Specified Currency, the Issuer may at its option (or shall, if so required by applicable law) without the consent of the holder of this Note effect the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Note denominated in such Specified Currency in euro in lieu of such Specified Currency in conformity with legally applicable measures taken pursuant to, or by virtue of, the relevant treaty of the European Union, as amended.  Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars or euro where the required payment is in an unavailable Specified Currency will not constitute an Event of Default.  If such Market Exchange Rate is not then available to the Issuer or is not published for a particular Specified Currency, the Market Exchange Rate will be based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent (as defined below) at approximately 11:00 a.m., The City of New York time, on the second Business Day preceding the date of such payment from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (the “ Exchange Dealers ”) for the purchase by the quoting Exchange Dealer of the Specified Currency for U.S. dollars for settlement on the payment date, in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to those holders or beneficial owners of Notes and at which the applicable Exchange Dealer commits to execute a contract.  One of the Exchange Dealers providing quotations may be the Exchange Rate Agent unless the Exchange Rate Agent is an affiliate of the Issuer.  If those bid quotations are not available, the Exchange Rate Agent shall determine the market exchange rate at its sole discretion.

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 and 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 holder of this Note.
 
The Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the holder of this Note 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.

repaid) and to pay interest thereon at the Interest Rate per annum specified above from and including the Interest Accrual Date specified above until but excluding the date the principal amount is paid or duly made available for payment (except as provided below), weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually in arrears on the Interest Payment Dates specified above in each year commencing on the Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Interest Accrual Date specified above, and at maturity (or on any redemption or repayment date); provided, however , that if the Interest Accrual Date occurs fifteen calendar days or less prior to the first Interest Payment Date occurring after the Interest Accrual Date, interest payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date succeeding the Interest Accrual Date.  If this Note is intended to be an NGN, the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems (which, in this Note, means the records that each Relevant Clearing System holds for its customers to reflect the amount of such customer s’ interests in this Note) shall be conclusive evidence of the aggregate principal amount of this Note and, for these purposes, a statement issued by a Relevant Clearing System (which statement shall be made to the Issuer, to the Trustee, to the Principal Paying Agent or to the bearer of this Note on request) stating the aggregate principal amount of this Note shall be conclusive of the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems at that time.
 
Interest on this Note will accrue from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Interest Accrual Date, until but excluding the date the principal amount hereof has been paid or duly made available for payment.  Upon any payment of interest on this Note, the Principal Paying Agent (as defined below) shall, (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, cause Schedule A of this Note to be endorsed to reflect such payment, or, (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, cause the payment to be entered pro rata in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems.  No payment on this Note will be made at any office or agency of the Issuer in the United States or by check mailed to an address in the United States (as defined below) or by wire transfer to an account maintained by the holder of this Note with a bank in the United States except as may be permitted under United States federal tax laws and regulations then in effect without adverse tax consequences to the Issuer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that payment in U.S. dollars of the full amount payable on this Note at the offices of all paying agents would be illegal or effectively precluded as a result of exchange controls or similar restrictions, payment on this Note will be made by a paying agency in the United States, if such paying agency, under applicable law and regulations, would be able to make such payment.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, no payment of principal or interest shall be made on any portion of this Note unless there shall have been delivered to the Principal Paying Agent a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto with respect to the portion of this Note with respect to which such principal or interest is to be paid.  Such certificate shall have been delivered to the Principal Paying Agent by Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System (“ Euroclear ”), and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“ Clearstream, Luxembourg ”), and/or any other relevant clearing system (including Euroclear France) as the case may be, and shall be based on a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto provided to Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system, as the case may be, by those of its account holders who are to receive such payment of principal or interest.

Except as otherwise provided herein, this Note is governed by the terms and conditions of the Permanent Global Fixed Rate Senior Bearer Note (the “ Permanent Global Bearer Note ”) to be issued in exchange for this Note, which terms and conditions are hereby incorporated by reference herein mutatis mutandis and shall be binding on the Issuer and the holder hereof as if fully set forth herein.  The form of the Permanent Global Bearer Note is attached hereto.

International plc, or any other manager participating in the distribution of the tranche of Notes of which this Note forms a part, as part of an unsold allotment or subscription more than 40 calendar days after the Closing Date for this Note, the Exchange Date with respect to such interest shall be the day after the date such interest is sold by Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc or such other manager, all as determined and notified to the Trustee by Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc or if Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc did not participate in the distribution of such tranche, by the Issuer.
 
(b)           the term “ United States ” means the United States of America (including the States and the District of Columbia); and its “ possessions ” include Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Guam, American Samoa, Wake Island and the Northern Mariana Islands.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]
 
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Global Medium-Term Notes, Series [G/H], having maturities more than nine months from the date of issue (the “ Notes ”), of the Issuer.  The Notes are issuable under a Senior Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2004, between the Issuer and The Bank of New York (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (formerly known as JPMorgan Chase Bank)), as Trustee (the “ Trustee ,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Senior Indenture) (as supplemented by the First Supplemental Senior Indenture, dated as of September 4, 2007 and the Second Supplemental Senior Indenture, dated as of January 4, 2008 and as may be further amended or supplemented from time to time, the “ Senior Indenture ”), to which Senior Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities of the Issuer, the Trustee and holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.  The Issuer has appointed The Bank of New York, London Branch (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch), as its principal paying agent for the Notes (the “ Principal Paying Agent ,” which term includes any additional or successor Principal Paying Agent appointed by the Issuer).  The terms of individual Notes may vary with respect to interest rates, interest rate formulas, 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 indicated on the face hereof in accordance with the provisions of the following two paragraphs and except as set forth below, 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 (except as indicated below).  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 (except as provided below).  If the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Modified Payment upon Acceleration or Redemption”, the amount of principal payable upon redemption will 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 accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of redemption (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount accrued being calculated using a constant yield method (as described below).  Notice of redemption shall be mailed to the holders of the Notes designated for redemption who have filed their names and addresses with the Principal Paying Agent, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, subject to all the conditions and
 
 
6

 
 
provisions of the Senior Indenture.  Notice of redemption to all other holders of Notes shall be given in the manner set forth in “Notices” as defined below and, if by publication, shall be given once in each of three successive calendar weeks, the first publication to be not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the date set for redemption or within the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof.  In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, the Principal Paying Agent shall (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, cause Schedule [A] [A-1] of this Note to be endorsed to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Note so redeemed, or (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, cause the details of such redemption to be entered in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems, whereupon, in either case, the principal amount hereof shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so redeemed and noted or recorded, as applicable.

If this Note is redeemed in part but not in whole prior to maturity hereof, (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, the Trustee shall select or cause to be selected, not more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, the portions of this Note for redemption from the outstanding aggregate principal amount of this Note not previously called for redemption by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate, or (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, the portion of this Note to be redeemed will be selected in accordance with the rules and procedures of Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V. and/or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (to be reflected in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems as either a pool factor or a reduction in nominal amount, at their discretion).

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 or, if this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, in increments of 1,000 units of such Specified Currency (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 (except as provided below), provided that if the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Modified Payment upon Acceleration or Redemption”, the amount of principal payable upon repayment will 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 accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of repayment  (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount accrued being calculated using a constant yield method (as described below).  For this Note to be repaid at the option of the holder hereof, the Principal Paying Agent must receive at its office in London, at least 15 but not more than 30 calendar days prior to the date of repayment, this Note with the form entitled “ Option to Elect Repayment ” below duly completed, or a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange, or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States, Western Europe or Japan setting forth the principal amount of the Note, the principal amount of the Note to be repaid, the certificate number or a description of the tenor and terms of this Note, a statement that the Option to Elect Repayment is being exercised and a guarantee that this Note to be repaid, together with the duly completed
 
 
7

 
 
form entitled Option to Elect Repayment, will be received by the Principal Paying Agent not later than the fifth Business Day (as defined below) after the date of that telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter. However, the telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter shall only be effective if this Note and an Option to Elect Repayment form duly completed are received by the Principal Paying Agent by the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter.  Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof shall be irrevocable.  In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, the Principal Paying Agent shall (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, cause Schedule [A] [A-1] of this Note to be endorsed to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Note so repaid, or, (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, cause the details of such repayment to be entered in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems, whereupon, in either case, the principal amount hereof shall be reduced for all purposes by the amount so repaid and noted or recorded, as applicable.

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), as the case may be.  Unless otherwise specified 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) 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), 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) 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 is issued in permanent global bearer form without interest coupons attached (a “ Global Bearer Note ”).  The beneficial owner of all or a portion of this Note may exchange its interest in this Note upon not less than 30 calendar days’ written notice to the Principal Paying Agent through the relevant clearing system, (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, in whole, or, (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, in whole or from time to time in part, for Notes in bearer form with interest coupons, if any, attached (the “ Definitive Bearer Notes ,” and, together with the Global Bearer Notes, the “ Bearer Notes ”) or, if so indicated on the face of this Note, at the beneficial owner’s option, in whole or from time to time in part, for Notes in fully registered form without coupons (the “ Registered Notes ”), in each case, in the minimum denominations set forth on the face hereof or any amount in excess thereof which is an integral multiple of 1,000 units of the Specified Currency set forth on the face hereof.  Interests in this Note shall also be exchanged by the Issuer in whole, but not in part, for Definitive Bearer Notes, which shall be serially numbered, with coupons, if any, attached (or, if indicated on the face of this Note, at the beneficial owner’s option, for Registered Notes), of any authorized denominations if (i) this Note is accelerated following an Event of Default or (ii) either Euroclear

All (and not less than all) interests in this Note will be exchanged for Definitive Bearer Notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the following two sentences as soon as practicable after (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, the first beneficial owner of an interest in this Note exchanges its interest for a Definitive Bearer Note, (ii) the Issuer gives notice to the Principal Paying Agent of an acceleration of the Note or (iii) either Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg or any other relevant clearing system is closed for business for a continuous period of fourteen calendar days (other than by reason of public holidays) or announces an intention to cease business permanently or in fact does so.  In the event of any exchange of interests in this Note for a Definitive Bearer Note, (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, a common depositary located outside the United States (the “ common depositary ”)

holding this Note for Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system or (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg shall instruct the Principal Paying Agent regarding the aggregate principal amount of Definitive Bearer Notes and the denominations of such Definitive Bearer Notes that must be authenticated and delivered to each relevant clearing system in exchange for this Note.  Thereafter, the Principal Paying Agent, acting solely in reliance on such instructions, shall, upon surrender to it of this Note and subject to the conditions in the preceding paragraph, authenticate and deliver Definitive Bearer Notes in exchange for this Note in accordance with such instructions and shall, (i) if this Note is not intended to be an NGN, cause Schedule [A] [A-1] of this Note to be endorsed to reflect the reduction of its principal amount by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Note, or (ii) if this Note is intended to be an NGN, cause the details of such exchange to be entered in the records of the Relevant Clearing Systems.  Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent the further exchange of Definitive Bearer Notes into Registered Notes.
 
This Note may be transferred by delivery; provided, however, that this Note may be transferred only to a common depositary or common safe-keeper, as applicable, outside the United States for Euroclear, Clearstream, Luxembourg and/or any other relevant clearing system or to a nominee of such a common depositary or common safe-keeper.
 
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, in the case of any destroyed or lost or stolen Note, 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.
 
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,” the amount of principal so payable will 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 accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of redemption (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount accrued being calculated using a constant yield method (as described in the next paragraph) (the “ Amortized Amount ”)), if the Issuer determines that, as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws (including a holding, judgment or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction), 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 occurs, becomes effective or, in the case of a change in official position, is announced on or after the Initial Offering Date hereof, the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional
 
 
10

 
 
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.
 
The constant yield shall be calculated using a 30-day month, 360-day year convention, a computing period that, except for the initial period (as defined below), corresponds to the shortest period between Interest Payment Dates (with ratable accruals within a compounding period), and an assumption that the maturity will not be accelerated.  If the period from the Original Issue Date to the first Interest Payment Date (the “ initial period ”) is shorter than the compounding period for this Note, a proportionate amount of the yield for an entire compounding period will be accrued.  If the initial period is longer than the compounding period, then the period will be divided into a regular compounding period and a short period with the short period being treated as provided in the preceding sentence.
 
Notice of 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 Issuer shall determine that any payment made outside the United States by the Issuer or any Paying Agent of principal, premium or interest due in respect of this Note would, under any present or future laws or regulations of the United States, be subject to any certification, identification or other information reporting requirement of any kind, the effect of which is the disclosure to the Issuer, any Paying Agent or any governmental authority of the nationality, residence or identity of a beneficial owner of this Note who is a U.S. Alien (as defined below) (other than such a requirement (a) that would not be applicable to a payment made by the Issuer or any Paying Agent (i) directly to the beneficial owner or (ii) to a custodian, nominee or other agent of the beneficial owner, or (b) that can be satisfied by such custodian, nominee or other agent certifying to the effect that such beneficial owner is a U.S. Alien; provided that in each case referred to in clauses (a)(ii) and (b) payment by such custodian, nominee or agent to such beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any such requirement), the Issuer shall redeem this Note, as a whole, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof (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 Amortized Amount), together with accrued interest to the date fixed for redemption, or, at the election of the Issuer if the conditions of the next succeeding paragraph are satisfied, pay the additional amounts specified in such paragraph.  The Issuer shall make such determination and election as soon as practicable, shall promptly notify the Trustee thereof and shall publish (or transmit, as applicable) prompt notice thereof (the “ Determination Notice ”) stating the effective date of such certification, identification or other information reporting requirements, whether the Issuer will redeem this Note or has elected to pay the additional amounts specified in the next succeeding paragraph, and (if applicable) the

last date by which the redemption of this Note must take place, as provided in the next succeeding sentence.  If the Issuer redeems this Note, such redemption shall take place on such date, not later than one year after the publication of the Determination Notice, as the Issuer shall elect by notice to the Trustee at least 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or at least 30 calendar days prior to the last day of the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof.  Notice of such redemption of this Note will be given to the holder of this Note not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof.  Such redemption notice shall include a statement as to the last date by which this Note to be redeemed may be exchanged for Registered Notes.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not so redeem this Note if the Issuer shall subsequently determine, not less than 30 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or prior to the last day of the Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, that subsequent payments would not be subject to any such certification, identification or other information reporting requirement, in which case the Issuer shall publish (or transmit, as applicable) prompt notice of such determination and any earlier redemption notice shall be revoked and of no further effect.  The right of the holder of this Note to exchange this Note for Registered Notes pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph will terminate at the close of business of the Principal Paying Agent on the fifteenth day prior to the date fixed for redemption, and no further exchanges of this Note for Registered Notes shall be permitted.
 
If and so long as the certification, identification or other information reporting requirements referred to in the preceding paragraph would be fully satisfied by payment of a backup withholding tax or similar charge, the Issuer may elect by notice to the Trustee to pay as additional amounts such amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment made outside the United States following the effective date of such requirements by the Issuer or any Paying Agent of principal, premium or interest due in respect of this Note of which the beneficial owner is a U.S. Alien (but without any requirement that the nationality, residence or identity of such beneficial owner be disclosed to the Issuer, any Paying Agent or any governmental authority, with respect to the payment of such additional amounts), after deduction or withholding for or on account of such backup withholding tax or similar charge (other than a backup withholding tax or similar charge that (i) would not be applicable in the circumstances referred to in the second parenthetical clause of the first sentence of the preceding paragraph, or (ii) is imposed as a result of presentation of this Note for payment more than 15 calendar days after the date on which such payment becomes due and payable or on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later), will not be less than the amount provided for in this Note to be then due and payable.  In the event the Issuer elects to pay any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall have the right to redeem this Note as a whole at any time pursuant to the applicable provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph and the redemption price of this Note will not be reduced for applicable withholding taxes.  If the Issuer elects to pay additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph and the condition specified in the first sentence of this paragraph should no longer be satisfied, then the Issuer will redeem this Note as a whole, pursuant to the applicable provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph.
 
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 U.S. Alien as may be necessary in order that every net payment of the principal of and interest on this Note
 
 
12

 
 
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 such holder who is a U.S. 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 U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the United States, 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 controlled foreign corporation or passive foreign investment company with respect to the United States or as a corporation which accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. 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 any other Paying Agent in a city in Western Europe;
 
(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;
 
 
13

 
 
(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 U.S. 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 provides that (a) if an Event of Default (as defined in the Senior Indenture) due to the default in payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any series of debt securities issued under the Senior Indenture, including the series of Global Medium-Term Notes 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 securityholders, may then declare the principal of all debt securities of all such series and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately and (b) 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, insolvency or reorganization 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 securityholders, may declare the principal of all such debt securities and interest 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 of or 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 or Redemption,” 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
 
 
14

 
 
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 accrued from the Interest Accrual Date to the date of declaration (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate principal amount), with the amount of original issue discount accrued being calculated using a constant yield method (as described above), (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.
 
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, (a) 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 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 (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage in principal amount of debt securities the consent of the holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture.
 
Except as set forth below, if the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on this Note is payable in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars and such Specified Currency is not available to the Issuer for making payments hereon due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond the control of the Issuer or is no longer used by the government of the country issuing such currency or for the settlement of transactions by public institutions within the international banking community, then the Issuer will be entitled to satisfy its obligations to the holder of this Note by making such payments in U.S. dollars on the basis of the Market Exchange Rate (as defined below) on the date of such payment or, if the Market Exchange Rate is not available on such date, as of the most recent practicable date; provided, however , that if the euro has been substituted for such Specified Currency, the Issuer may at its option (or shall, if so required by applicable law) without the consent of the holder of this Note effect the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Note denominated in such Specified Currency in euro in lieu of such Specified Currency in conformity with legally applicable measures taken pursuant to, or by virtue of, the relevant treaty of the European Union, as amended.  Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars or euro where the required payment is in an unavailable Specified Currency will not constitute an Event of Default.  
 
 
15

 
 
If such Market Exchange Rate is not then available to the Issuer or is not published for a particular Specified Currency, the Market Exchange Rate will be based on the highest bid quotation in The City of New York received by the Exchange Rate Agent (as defined below) at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the date of such payment from three recognized foreign exchange dealers (the “ Exchange Dealers ”) for the purchase by the quoting Exchange Dealer of the Specified Currency for U.S. dollars for settlement on the payment date, in the aggregate amount of the Specified Currency payable to those holders or beneficial owners of Notes and at which the applicable Exchange Dealer commits to execute a contract.  One of the Exchange Dealers providing quotations may be the Exchange Rate Agent unless the Exchange Rate Agent is an affiliate of the Issuer.  If those bid quotations are not available, the Exchange Rate Agent shall determine the market exchange rate at its sole discretion.
 
The “ Exchange Rate Agent ” shall be Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc, unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof.
 
All determinations referred to above made by, or on behalf of, the Issuer or by, or on behalf of, the Exchange Rate Agent shall be at such entity’s sole discretion and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on holders of Notes.
 
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 herein provided.  If this Note is listed on the London Stock Exchange plc and such exchange so requires, the Issuer shall maintain a Paying Agent in London.  If any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings comes into force, the Issuer will, to the extent possible as a matter of law, 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 any law implementing or complying with, or introduced in order to conform to, such Directive.  The Issuer may designate other agencies for the payment of said principal, premium and interest at such place or places outside the United States (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.
 
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 and premium, if any, and
 
 
16

 
 
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 holder of this Note.
 
The Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may treat the holder of this Note 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.
 
No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on this Note for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Senior Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any successor corporation, either directly or through the Issuer 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.

Morgan Stanley

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Morgan Stanley, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and depositor of Morgan Stanley Capital Trust VII, Morgan Stanley Capital Trust VIII, Morgan Stanley Capital Trust IX and Morgan Stanley Capital Trust X, each a statutory trust formed under the laws of the State of Delaware (each, an "Issuer Trust" and, collectively, the "Issuer Trusts"), in connection with the preparation and filing of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-3ASR (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Registration Statement") for the purpose of registering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") $125,452,274,876 aggregate initial offering price of the following securities, as such amount may be increased from time to time upon due authorization by the Company (the "Securities"): (i) debt securities ("Debt Securities"), (ii) warrants to purchase or sell (a) securities issued by the Company or by an entity affiliated or not affiliated with the Company, a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities, any other property, (b) currencies, (c) commodities or (d) any combination of the foregoing (collectively, the "Warrants"), (iii) purchase contracts ("Purchase Contracts") requiring the holders thereof to purchase or sell (a) securities issued by the Company or by an entity affiliated or not affiliated with the Company, a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities or any other property, (b) currencies, (c) commodities or (d) any combination of the above, shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Common Stock"), (v) shares of the Company's preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Preferred Stock"), to be issued from time to time in one or more series, (vi) an indeterminate number of depositary shares representing fractional interests in shares or multiple shares of the Preferred Stock (the “Depositary Shares”), (vii) Warrants, Purchase Contracts, Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Debt Securities and debt obligations issued by an entity affiliated or not affiliated with the Company or any combination thereof that may be offered in the form of Units ("Units"), (viii) capital securities of the Issuer Trusts (the "Capital Securities") and (ix) guarantees of the Company with respect to the Capital Securities (the "Guarantees"), and, collectively, the "Shelf Securities").

As used herein, the term "Debt Securities" includes prepaid Purchase Contracts issued under an indenture.

Certain of the Debt Securities (the “Senior Debt Securities”) are to be issued from time to time as senior indebtedness of the Company under a senior indenture dated as of November 1, 2004, between the Company and The Bank of New York (as successor to JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A. (formerly known as
 

 
JPMorgan Chase Bank)) (the "Senior Debt Trustee"), as trustee (as supplemented by the First Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of September 4, 2007 between the Company and the Senior Debt Trustee (the “First Supplemental Senior Indenture”) and the Second Supplemental Senior Indenture dated as of January 4, 2008 between the Company and the Senior Debt Trustee (the “Second Supplemental Senior Indenture”) and as may be further supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Senior Indenture”).

The Senior Indenture and the forms of the Senior Debt Securities are filed or incorporated by reference as exhibits to the Registration Statement.

In rendering this opinion, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records and other documents and certificates as we deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein. In such examination, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of all such latter documents. In making our examination of executed documents or documents to be executed, we have assumed that the parties thereto, other than the Company, had or will have the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and that such documents constitute valid and binding obligations of such parties. In addition, we have assumed that the Senior Indenture and the Senior Debt Securities have been or will be executed in substantially the form reviewed by us and that the terms of the Senior Debt Securities will have been established so as not to violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) any agreement or instrument to which the Company or its property is subject, (ii) any law, rule, or regulation to which the Company is subject, (iii) any judicial or administrative order or decree of any governmental authority or (iv) any consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority.

We have examined the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of such additional corporate records of the Company and such other documents and certificates as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and assuming that (i) the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments) are or will have become effective and comply with all applicable laws; (ii) the Registration Statement will continue to be effective and will comply with all applicable laws at the time the Senior Debt Securities are offered or issued as contemplated by the Registration Statement; (iii) a prospectus supplement will have been prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange
 
2

 
Commission describing the Senior Debt Securities offered thereby and will comply with all applicable laws; (iv) all Senior Debt Securities will be issued and sold in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the appropriate prospectus supplement; (v) the Company's Board of Directors (or a committee thereof duly authorized to act on its behalf) (the "Board") and appropriate officers of the Company have taken all necessary corporate action to approve the terms of the Senior Debt Securities and the terms of the offering; and (vi) a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement and any other necessary agreement with respect to any Senior Debt Securities offered or issued will have been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto; we are of the opinion that:

1. the Senior Indenture and the Senior Debt Securities have been duly authorized by the Company; and

2. when the terms of the Senior Debt Securities have been established by the officers of the Company given authority to do so by the Board and (i) the Senior Debt Securities have been duly authenticated, executed and issued in accordance with the provisions of the Senior Indenture, (ii) if the Senior Debt Securities are intended to be in NGN form, as defined in the Senior Indenture, and are not to be physically delivered to the relevant common safe-keeper (“CSK”) for Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of the Euroclear System, and Clearstream Banking, société anonyme , the Senior Debt Securities have been effectuated by the CSK, and (iii) the Senior Debt Securities have been duly paid for by the purchasers thereof in accordance with the applicable definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement, all required corporate action of the Company will have been taken with respect to the issuance and sale of the Senior Debt Securities and such Senior Debt Securities will have been validly issued and will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

Our opinion in paragraph 2 above is subject to the effects of applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and equitable principles of general applicability.

We note that, as of the date of this opinion, a judgment for money in an action based on the Senior Debt Securities in a federal or state court in the United States ordinarily would be enforced in the United States only in United States dollars. The date used to determine the rate of conversion into United States dollars will depend upon various factors, including which court renders the judgment.
 
We are members of the Bar of the State of New York and the foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
