(formerly known as PNC Financial Corp) ("Guarantor") and Chemical Bank (successor by merger to Manufacturers Hanover Trust Company) ("Trustee") (such Indenture as amended being herein called the "Indenture"), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated above, limited (except as provided in the Indenture) in aggregate principal amount to $200,000,000. The Securities of this series are not redeemable prior to their Stated Maturity. If an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Securities of this series, including the principal thereof and interest thereon, is, to the extent and in the manner set forth in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to its obligations to holders of Senior Company Indebtedness (as defined in the Indenture) and shall rank PARI PASSU in right of payment with each other and with Existing Company Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined in said Indenture), subject to the obligations of the holders of the Securities to pay over any Excess Proceeds to creditors in respect of Other Company Obligations, as provided in the Indenture, and each Holder of Securities, by the acceptance hereof, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions of the Indenture. The indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Securities of this series, including the principal thereof and interest thereon, also shall rank PARI PASSU in right of payment with the Company's 6-7/8% Subordinated Notes Due 2003 and 6-1/8% Subordinated Notes Due 2003, the holders of which are also obligated to pay 3 over any Excess Proceeds to creditors in respect of Other Company Obligations, as provided in the Indenture. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the Guarantor and the rights of the holders of the Securities of any series under the Indenture at any time by the Company, the Guarantor and the Trustee with the consent of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Securities of all series (voting as one class) to be affected by such amendment or modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of any series, on behalf of the holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company or the Guarantor with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security. No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth and to the limitations set forth in the legend on the first page of this Security, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the registered holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 4 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of transfer, the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee and any agent of the Company, the Guarantor or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company, the Guarantor, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. This Security is a global security. Accordingly, unless and until it is exchanged in whole or in part for individual certificates evidencing the Securities represented hereby, this Security may not be transferred except as a whole by The Depository Trust Company (the "Depositary") to a nominee of such Depositary or by a nominee of such Depositary or by the Depositary or any nominee to a successor Depositary or any nominee of such successor. Ownership of beneficial interests in this Security will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by the applicable Depositary or its nominee (with respect to interest of persons that have accounts with the Depositary ("Participants")) and the records of Participants (with respect to interests of persons other than Participants). The laws of some states require that certain purchasers of securities take physical delivery of such securities in definitive form. Such limits and such laws may impair the ability to transfer beneficial interests in this Security. Except as provided below, owners of beneficial interests in this Security will not be entitled to have any individual certificates and will not be considered the owners or Holders thereof under the Indenture. Neither the Company, the Trustee, any Issuing and Paying Agent or any Security Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in this Security or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. If the Depositary is at any time unwilling, unable or ineligible to continue as Depositary and a successor Depositary is not appointed by the Company within 90 days, the Company will issue individual certificates evidencing the Securities represented hereby in definitive form in exchange for this Security. In addition, the Company may at any time and in its sole discretion determine not to have any Securities represented by one or more global securities and, in such event, will issue individual certificates evidencing Securities in definitive form in exchange for this 5 Security. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in a Security will be entitled to physical delivery in certificated form of Securities equal in principal amount to such beneficial interest and to have such Securities registered in its name. Securities so issued in certificated form will be issued in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof and will be issued in registered form only, without coupons. The Indenture contains provisions setting forth certain conditions to the institution of proceedings by the holders of Securities with respect to the Indenture or for any remedy under the Indenture. All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
