Already answered, but it seems everyone wants that fifth branch. In your case 
it is not really necessary, but you may still want one to make the reporting 
easier if you have any. However, you *could* simply define a Latest End 
deadine on any of the four steps you already have active and terminate the 
workflow that way (this will be a modelled deadline of course).
