          The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (hereinafter called the “ Company ”, which term includes any successor Person under the 2008 Indenture (as defined on the reverse of this Security)), for value received, hereby promises to pay to                      , or registered assigns, as principal the Principal Amount on the Stated Maturity Date and to pay interest thereon, from the Original Issue Date or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or made available for payment, on the Interest Payment Date(s) in each year, commencing on the first such date that is at least 15 calendar days after the Original Issue Date, and at the Maturity of the principal hereof, at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate specified on the face hereof, until the principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. Any premium and any such installment of interest that is overdue at any time shall also bear interest (to the extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable) at the rate per annum at which the principal then bears interest, from the date any such overdue amount first becomes due until it is paid or made available for payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest on any principal, premium or installment of interest that is overdue shall be payable on demand.

          The interest so payable, and punctually paid or made available for payment, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the 2008 Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the 15th calendar day (whether or not a Business Day, as such term is defined in Section 3 on the reverse hereof) next preceding such Interest Payment Date (a “ Regular Record Date ”); provided , however , if this Security is a Global Security, a Regular Record Date will instead occur on the fifth Business Day preceding such Interest Payment Date. Any interest so payable, but not punctually paid or made available for payment, on any Interest Payment Date will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and such Defaulted Interest may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the Holder of this Security not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which this Security may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the 2008 Indenture. For the purpose of determining a Holder at the close of business on any relevant record date when business is not conducted, the close of business will mean 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on that day.

          The Company and the Trustee acknowledge that the Company has not opted out of the debt guarantee program (the “Debt Guarantee Program”) established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) under its Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program. As a result, this debt is guaranteed under the FDIC Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program and is backed by the full faith and credit of the United States. The details of the FDIC guarantee are provided in the FDIC’s regulations,

(Face of Security continued on next page)

12 CFR Part 370, and at the FDIC’s website, www.fdic.gov/tlgp. The expiration date of the FDIC’s guarantee is the earlier of the maturity date of this debt or June 30, 2012 .

          The Trustee is hereby designated as the duly authorized representative of the Holder for purposes of making claims and taking other permitted or required actions under the Debt Guarantee Program (the “Representative”). The Holder of this Security may elect not to be represented by the Representative with respect to this Security by providing written notice of such election to the Representative.

          Notwithstanding any provision of this Security, any right of the Holder to receive payment in respect of this Security under the Debt Guarantee Program shall be subject to the procedures and other requirements of the Debt Guarantee Program, and the Holder will not be entitled under the Debt Guarantee Program to receive any additional interest or penalty amounts on account of any default or resulting delay in payment in respect of this Security.

      Currency of Payment

          Payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made in the Specified Currency for such payment, except as provided in this and the next three paragraphs. The Specified Currency for any payment shall be the currency specified as such on the face of this Security unless, at the time of such payment, such currency is not legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in the country issuing such currency on the Original Issue Date, in which case the Specified Currency for such payment shall be such coin or currency as at the time of such payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in such country, except as provided in the next sentence. If the euro is specified on the face of this Security as the Specified Currency for any payment, the Specified Currency for such payment shall be such coin or currency as at the time of payment is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in all EMU Countries (as defined in Section 3 on the reverse hereof), provided that, if on any day there are not at least two EMU Countries, or if on any day there are at least two EMU Countries but no coin or currency is legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in all EMU Countries, then the Specified Currency for such payment shall be deemed not to be available to the Company on such day.

          Except as provided in the next paragraph, any payment to be made on this Security in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars will be made in U.S. dollars if the Person entitled to receive such payment transmits a written request for such payment to be made in U.S. dollars to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, on or before the fifth Business Day before the payment is to be made. Such written request may be mailed, hand delivered, telecopied or delivered in any other manner approved by the Trustee. Any such request made with respect to any payment on this Security payable to a particular Holder will remain in effect for all later payments on this Security payable to such Holder, unless such request

(Face of Security continued on next page)

is revoked on or before the fifth Business Day before a payment is to be made, in which case such revocation shall be effective for such and all later payments. In the case of any payment of interest payable on an Interest Payment Date, such written request must be made by the Person who is the registered Holder of this Security on the relevant Regular Record Date.

          The U.S. dollar amount of any payment made pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph will be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent based upon the highest bid quotation received by the Exchange Rate Agent as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day preceding the applicable payment date, from three (or, if three are not available, then two) recognized foreign exchange dealers selected by the Exchange Rate Agent in The City of New York, in each case for the purchase by the quoting dealer, for U.S. dollars and for settlement on such payment date of an amount of such Specified Currency for such payment equal to the aggregate amount of such Specified Currency payable on such payment date to all Holders of this Security who elect to receive U.S. dollar payments on such payment date, and at which the applicable dealer commits to execute a contract. If the Exchange Rate Agent determines that two such bid quotations are not available on such second Business Day, such payment will be made in the Specified Currency for such payment. All currency exchange costs associated with any payment in U.S. dollars on this Security will be borne by the Holder entitled to receive such payment, by deduction from such payment.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any amount payable on this Security is payable on any day (including at Maturity) in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, and if such Specified Currency is not available to the Company on the two Business Days before such day, due to the imposition of exchange controls, disruption in a currency market or any other circumstances beyond the control of the Company, the Company will be entitled to satisfy its obligation to pay such amount in such Specified Currency by making such payment in U.S. dollars. The amount of such payment in U.S. dollars shall be determined by the Exchange Rate Agent on the basis of the noon buying rate for cable transfers in The City of New York, for such Specified Currency (the “ Exchange Rate ”) as of the latest day before the day on which such payment is to be made. Any payment made under such circumstances in U.S. dollars where the required payment is in other than U.S. dollars will not constitute an Event of Default under the 2008 Indenture or this Security.

      Manner of Payment – U.S. Dollars

          Except as provided in the next paragraph, payment of any amount payable on this Security in U.S. dollars will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of New York (or at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose), against surrender of this Security in the case of any payment due at the Maturity of the principal hereof (other than any payment of interest that first becomes due on an Interest Payment Date); provided , howeve r, that,

Any such request made with respect to any payment on this Security payable to a particular Holder will remain in effect for all later payments on this Security payable to such Holder, unless such request is revoked on or before the fifth Business Day before a payment is to be made, in which case such revocation shall be effective for such payment and all later payments. In the case of any payment of interest payable on an Interest Payment Date, such written request must be made by the Person who is the registered Holder of this Security on the relevant Regular Record Date. The Company will pay any administrative costs imposed by banks in connection with making payments by wire transfer with respect to this Security, but any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed upon any payment will be borne by the Holder of this Security and may be deducted from the payment by the Company or the Paying Agent.

      Manner of Payment – Other Specified Currencies

          Payment of any amount payable on this Security in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to such account as is maintained in such Specified Currency at a bank or other financial institution acceptable to the Company and the Trustee and as shall have been designated at least five Business Days prior to the applicable payment date by the Person entitled to receive such payment; provided that, in the case of any such payment due at the Maturity of the principal hereof (other than any payment of interest that first becomes due on an Interest Payment Date), this Security must be surrendered at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in The City of New York (or at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose) in time for the Paying Agent to make such payment in such funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Such account designation shall be made by transmitting the appropriate information to the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New

York, by mail, hand delivery, telecopier or in any other manner approved by the Trustee. Unless revoked, any such account designation made with respect to this Security by the Holder hereof will remain in effect with respect to any further payments with respect to this Security payable to such Holder. If a payment in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars with respect to this Security cannot be made by wire transfer because the required account designation has not been received by the Trustee on or before the requisite date or for any other reason, the Company will cause a notice to be given to the Holder of this Security at its registered address requesting an account designation pursuant to which such wire transfer can be made and such payment will be made within five Business Days after the Trustee’s receipt of such a designation meeting the requirements specified above, with the same force and effect as if made on the due date. The Company will pay any administrative costs imposed by banks in connection with making payments by wire transfer with respect to this Security, but any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed upon any payment will be borne by the Holder of this Security and may be deducted from the payment by the Company or the Paying Agent.

The Company will give the Trustee prompt written notice of any change in any such appointment. Insofar as this Security provides for any such agent to obtain rates, quotes or other data from a bank, dealer or other institution for use in making any determination hereunder, such agent may do so from any institution or institutions of the

kind contemplated hereby notwithstanding that any one or more of such institutions are such agent, Affiliates of such agent or Affiliates of the Company.

          All determinations made by the Exchange Rate Agent may be made by such agent in its sole discretion and, absent manifest error, shall be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the Holder of this Security and the Company. The Exchange Rate Agent shall not have any liability therefor.

          Unless otherwise specified on the face hereof, for all purposes of this Security, the term “ Business Day ” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday that (i) is not a day on which banking institutions in The City of New York generally are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close, (ii) if the Specified Currency for any payment on this Security is other than U.S. dollars or euros, is not a day on which banking institutions in the principal financial center of the country issuing such Specified Currency generally are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close, (iii) if the Specified Currency for any payment on this Security is euros, is not a Euro Business Day and (iv) solely with respect to any payment or other action to be made or taken at any Place of Payment outside The City of New York, is a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday that is not a day on which banking institutions in such Place of Payment generally are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or executive order to close. “ Euro Business Day ” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express (TARGET) System, or any successor system, is open for business.

          References in this Security to U.S. dollars shall mean, as of any time, the coin or currency that is then legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in the United States of America.

          References in this Security to the euro shall mean, as of any time, the coin or currency (if any) that is then legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in all EMU Countries. “ EMU Countries ” means, at any time, the countries (if any) then participating in the European Economic and Monetary Union (or any successor union) pursuant to the Treaty on European Union of February 1992 (or any successor treaty), as it may be amended from time to time.

          5. Repayment at the Holder’s Option

          Except as otherwise may be provided on the face hereof, if one or more Repayment Dates are specified on the face hereof, this Security will be repayable in whole or in part in an amount equal to any Authorized Denomination ( provided that the remaining principal amount of any Security surrendered for partial repayment shall at least equal an Authorized Denomination), on any such Repayment Date, in each case at the option of the Holder and at the applicable Repayment Price specified on the face hereof (expressed as a percentage of the principal amount to be repaid), together with accrued interest to the applicable Repayment Date (but interest installments due on or prior to such Repayment Date will be payable to the Holder of this Security, or one or more Predecessor Securities, of record at the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date as provided in the 2008 Indenture). If this Security provides for more than one Repayment Date and the Holder exercises its option to elect repayment, the Holder shall be deemed to have elected repayment on the earliest Repayment Date after all conditions to such exercise have been satisfied, and references herein to the “applicable Repayment Date” shall mean such earliest Repayment Date.

          In order for the exercise of such option to be effective and this Security to be repaid, the Company must receive at the applicable address of the Trustee set forth below (or at such other place or places of which the Company shall from time to time notify the Holder of this Security), on any Business Day not later than the 15th, and not earlier than the 25th, calendar day prior to the applicable Repayment Date (or, if either such calendar day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day), either (i) this Security, with the form below entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” duly completed and signed, or (ii) a facsimile transmission or letter from a member of a national securities exchange or the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., a commercial bank or a trust company in the United States of America setting forth (a) the name, address and telephone number of the Holder of this Security, (b) the principal amount of

Any such election shall be irrevocable. The address to which such deliveries are to be made is The Bank of New York Mellon, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, 101 Barclay Street, 4E, New York, New York 10286 (or at such other places as the Company or the Trustee shall notify the Holder of this Security). All questions as to the validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance of any Security for repayment will be determined by the Company, whose determination will be final and binding. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) if this Security is a Global Security, the option of the Holder to elect repayment may be exercised in accordance with the Applicable Procedures of the Depositary for this Security at least 15 calendar days prior to the applicable Repayment Date and (y) whether or not this Security is a Global Security, the option of the Holder to elect repayment may be exercised in any such manner as the Company may approve.

          6. Transfer and Exchange

          As provided in the 2008 Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any premium and interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series and of like tenor, of Authorized Denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

          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 Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or

          If this Security is a Global Security, this Security shall be subject to the provisions of the 2008 Indenture relating to Global Securities, including the limitations in Section 3.05 thereof on transfers and exchanges of Global Securities (subject to Section 11 of the reverse of this Security).

          7. Defeasance

          The 2008 Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire indebtedness of this Security or certain restrictive covenants and Events of Default with respect to this Security, in each case upon compliance with certain conditions set forth in the 2008 Indenture.
