respect to distributions or allocations to any Securityholder, the amount
withheld shall be deemed to be a distribution in the amount of the withholding
to such Securityholder. The Company will, however, be required to pay additional
amounts so that the net amount received by a Preferred Securityholder after
withholding will not be less than the Mandatory Dividend Payment Amount then due
and payable as described in Section 7.3(c). To the fullest extent permitted by
law, in the event of any claimed over-withholding, Securityholders shall be
limited to an action against the applicable jurisdiction. If the amount required
to be withheld from a distribution was not withheld from such distribution, the
Company may reduce subsequent distributions by the amount of such withholding to
the extent the Company was not required to pay Additional Amounts with respect
to such withholding. Each Securityholder, by its acceptance of Securities, shall
be deemed to agree to furnish the Company with any representations and forms as
shall reasonably be requested by the Company to assist it in determining the
extent of, and in fulfilling, its withholding obligations.

rights that it may have to maintain an action for partition of the property of

Company prior to the dissolution and winding up of the Company only upon the

investment opportunity to the Company even if such opportunity is of a character
that, if presented to the Company, could be taken by the Company, and any
Director, Officer, Securityholder or Affiliate thereof shall have the right to

Directors shall have any liability to any Preferred Securityholder or the
Company for not voting to take any enforcement action under the Subordinated
Notes in the event of a default by the Cayman Islands Branch in performing any
of its obligations (including payment obligations) thereunder.

of unpaid Definitive Dividends on the Company Preferred Securities or any
Company Parity Preferred Securities equals or exceeds an amount equal to three
semi-annual dividend payments, the holders of Company Preferred Securities and
any Company Parity Preferred Securities, voting together as a single class, will
have the exclusive right to elect two additional directors. Holders of a
majority of Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity Preferred Securities
may exercise this right by written consent or at a meeting of such holders
called for such purpose. This meeting may be called at the request of any holder
of Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities. This
right will continue either until all unpaid Definitive Dividends have been paid
in full or until full dividends have been paid on the Company Preferred
Securities for two consecutive dividend periods. While this right continues, any
vacancy in the office of the additional directors may be filled only by the
holders of Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity Preferred Securities
voting as described above.

                     COMPANY SECURITIES; SUBORDINATED NOTES

                  Section 7.1 Company Common Securities.

                  (a) The Bank, as the initial Common Securityholder, shall be
deemed to have been issued [2,000] Company Common Securities upon its
designation as the Common Securityholder pursuant to Section 2.2 of this
Agreement. Upon issuance as provided in this Agreement, the Company Common
Securities so issued shall be deemed duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable.

                  (b) Company Common Securities shall not be evidenced by any
certificate or other written instrument, but shall only be evidenced by this
Agreement.

                  (c) The Common Securityholders will receive dividends out of
interest payments received by the Company on the Subordinated Notes and other
Eligible Investments, if any, not required to be applied to fund dividends with
respect to the Company Preferred Securities or expenses of the Company. However,
as long as the Company Preferred Securities or the Company Parity Preferred
Securities are outstanding, no dividends or other distributions (including
redemptions and purchases) may be made with respect to Company Common


                                      -23-
<PAGE>
Securities unless full dividends on all Company Preferred Securities and Company
Parity Preferred Securities have been paid as provided in Section 7.3.

                  (d) Subject to the rights, if any, of the Preferred
Securityholders (to the limited extent provided in Section 8.1), all voting
rights are vested in the Company Common Securities. The Common Securityholders
are entitled to vote in proportion to the stated amounts represented by their
Company Common Securities.

                  (e) If the Company dissolves, liquidates or winds up (whether
voluntarily or involuntary) after all debts and liabilities of the Company have
been satisfied and there have been paid or set aside for the Preferred
Securityholders the full preferential amounts to which such holders are
entitled, the Common Securityholders will be entitled to share equally and
ratably in any assets remaining.

                  Section 7.2 General Provisions Regarding Company Preferred
Securities and Company Parity Preferred Securities.

                  (a) There is hereby authorized for issuance and sale Company
Preferred Securities having an aggregate initial liquidation preference of $*.
The specific designation, dividend rate, liquidation preference, redemption
terms, voting rights, exchange limitations and other powers, preferences and
special rights and limitations of the Company Preferred Securities are set forth
in Section 7.3 hereof. Upon issuance as provided in this Agreement, the Company
Preferred Securities and the Company Parity Preferred Securities (if any) so
issued, shall be deemed duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

                  The Company has the power to create and issue additional
preferred limited liability company interests in the Company that are junior to
the Company Preferred Securities as to payment of dividends and payments of
amounts upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company ("Company
Junior Securities") or that are on a parity with the Company Preferred
Securities as to payment of dividends and payments of amounts upon dissolution,
liquidation or winding up of the Company ("Company Parity Preferred Securities")
and admit the purchasers of such limited liability company interests to the
Company as members of the Company. So long as any Company Preferred Securities
remain outstanding, additional Company Parity Preferred Securities may be issued
only with the consent of the holders of two-thirds (based on the aggregate
liquidation preference) of the Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity
Preferred Securities, voting together as a single class, and only if the Bank
Subordinated Guarantee is amended so that such Company Parity Preferred
Securities benefit from the Bank Subordinated Guarantee in the same manner as
the Company Preferred Securities without any adverse effect on holders of the
Company Preferred Securities. See Section 7.3(h).

                  The Company may not, without the consent of each Preferred
Securityholder, authorize, create or increase the authorized amount of, or issue
any class or series of equity securities of or limited liability company
interests in the Company, or any warrants, options or other rights convertible
or exchangeable into any class or series of any equity securities of or limited
liability company interests in the Company, ranking prior to the Company
Preferred Securities, either as to dividend rights or rights on dissolution,
winding up or termination of the Company.

                  Subject to the express provisions of this Agreement and of the
By-Laws, the Board of Directors shall have authority to fix the terms of Company
Parity Preferred Securities that may be issued by the Company by adopting in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement a Certificate of Designations
relating to such Company Parity Preferred Securities that shall set forth the
preferences and other terms of such series, including without limitation the
following: (1) the title and stated value of such series; (2) the number or
amount by aggregate liquidation preference of securities of such series offered
and the initial liquidation preference per security or minimum denomination of
such series; (3) the dividend rate(s), period(s), and/or payment date(s) or
method(s) of calculation thereof applicable to such series; (4) whether such
Company Parity Preferred Securities are cumulative or not and, if cumulative,
the date from which dividends on such Company Parity Preferred Securities shall
accumulate; (5) the provisions for a sinking fund, if any, for such series; (6)
the provisions for redemption, if applicable, of such series; (7) any voting
rights of such series; (8) the relative ranking and preferences of such series
as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up of
the affairs of the Company; (9) any limitations on issuance of any Company
Parity Preferred Securities ranking senior to or on a parity with such series of
Company Preferred Securities as to dividend rights and rights upon liquidation,
dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company; (10) whether such
Company Parity Preferred Securities will be eligible for issuance as book-entry
Company Parity Preferred Securities; and (11) any other specific terms,
preferences, rights, limitations or restrictions of such series. Upon such
adoption by the Board of Directors, each such Certificate of Designations shall
thereupon be incorporated into and deemed to be part of this Agreement.

                  (b) All Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity
Preferred Securities shall rank senior to all Company Junior Securities in
respect of the right to receive dividends or other distributions and the right
to receive payments out of the assets of the Company upon voluntary or
involuntary dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Company in accordance
with the provisions hereof (subject to the provisions of Section 7.3 or any
Certificate of Designations). All Company Preferred Securities and Company
Parity Preferred Securities redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the
Company shall be canceled. The Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity
Preferred Securities shall be issued in registered form only.

                  (c) Neither the Bank, the Company nor any of their respective
Affiliates shall have the right to vote or give or withhold consent with respect
to any Company Preferred Security or Company Parity Preferred Security owned by
it, directly or indirectly, and, for purposes of any matter upon which the
Preferred Securityholders may vote or give or withhold consent as provided in
this Agreement, Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity Preferred
Securities owned by any of the Bank, the Company or any of their respective
Affiliates shall be treated as if they were not outstanding.

                  (d) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary
notwithstanding:

                           (i) as long as any Company Preferred Securities are
         outstanding, no Company Parity Preferred Securities may be redeemed or
         repurchased unless the Company concurrently redeems an approximately
         equal proportion of the aggregate liquidation preference of the
         outstanding Company Preferred Securities or each Rating

         Agency then rating the Company Preferred Securities informs the Company
         in writing that the redemption or repurchase of such Company Parity
         Preferred Securities would not result in a reduction or withdrawal of
         the rating then assigned by that Rating Agency to the Company Preferred
         Securities, and

                           (ii) as long as any Company Preferred Securities or
         Company Parity Preferred Securities remain outstanding, the Company may
         issue or authorize the issuance of any Company Preferred Securities or
         Company Parity Preferred Securities only with the approval of the
         holders of two-thirds (based on the aggregate liquidation preference)
         of the Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity Preferred
         Securities, voting together as a single class, and only if the Bank
         Subordinated Guarantee is amended prior thereto so that such additional
         Company Parity Preferred Securities benefit from the Bank Subordinated
         Guarantee in substantially the same manner as the Company Preferred
         Securities without any adverse effect on the holders of the Company
         Preferred Securities.

                  (e) In purchasing Company Preferred Securities or Company
Parity Preferred Securities, each Preferred Securityholder agrees with the Bank
and the Company that the Bank, the Company and the Preferred Securityholders (i)
will treat Preferred Securityholders as holders of the Company Preferred
Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities for all purposes, and not as
the holders of an interest in the Bank, the Cayman Islands Branch or in any
other Person and (ii) will follow allocations made by the Company pursuant to
Section 4.4 of this Agreement.

                  Section 7.3 Company Preferred Securities.

                  (a) Designation. There shall hereby be designated as a series
of preferred limited liability company interests in the Company a series
identified as the Company's "*% Noncumulative Company Preferred Securities",
liquidation preference $[1,000][25] per security and aggregate liquidation
preference $ * (the "Company Preferred Securities").

                  The holders of the Company Preferred Securities (or of any
other Company Security) will have no preemptive rights with respect to any
limited liability company interests in the Company or any other securities of
the Company convertible into or carrying rights or options to purchase any such
securities. Company Preferred Securities will not be convertible into Company
Common Securities or any other class or series of limited liability company
interests in the Company and will not be subject to any sinking fund or other
obligation of the Company for its repurchase or retirement.

                  A Company Preferred Security shall be represented by the
corresponding Company Preferred Certificate.

                  (b) Dividends.

                           (i) Dividends on the Company Preferred Securities
         will be payable from the date of initial issuance on a noncumulative
         basis, [semi-annually in arrears on ____ and ____ of each year through
         ____ 20*, commencing on ____, 200*, and thereafter quarterly in arrears
         on ____ , ____ , ____ and ____ ][quarterly in arrears on ____, ____,


                                      -26-
<PAGE>
         ____ and ____] (or if any such day is not a Business Day, the next
         Business Day, but without any additional interest or other payment in
         respect of such delay) (each a "Dividend Payment Date" and each period
         from and including a Dividend Payment Date, or the date of initial
         issuance as applicable, to but not including the next Dividend Payment
         Date, a "Dividend Period") for the Dividend Period then ending, but
         only if the Company has legally available funds for such purpose and
         satisfies the other qualifications described below. Dividends will be
         payable on the liquidation preference [(i) for each Dividend Period
         through the Dividend Period ending on the Dividend Payment Date in ____
         20*, at a fixed rate per annum on the liquidation preference equal to
         *% (calculated on the basis of a year of twelve 30-day months) and (ii)
         for each dividend period commencing on such Dividend Payment Date and
         thereafter, at a floating rate per annum on the liquidation preference
         equal to *% above three-month LIBOR (calculated on the basis of the
         actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day YEAR)][at a fixed rate per
         annum on the liqudation preference equal to *% (calculated on the basis
         of a year of twelve 30-day months)]. Dividends will be mandatorily due
         and payable in the circumstances described in Section 7.3(b)(ii) below,
         except that dividends will never be mandatorily due and payable if the
         Capital Limitation described below in Section 7.3(b)(iii) applies. If
         dividends on a Dividend Payment Date are neither mandatorily due and
         payable nor prohibited by application of the Capital Limitation, then
         (i) payment of dividends on the Company Preferred Securities will be
         limited by the Bank's Available Distributable Profits (see Section
         7.3(b)(iv), below) and (ii) if the Bank delivers, on or before the
         tenth Business Day immediately preceding such Dividend Payment Date, an
         instruction (a "No Dividend Instruction") to the Company not to pay
         dividends on such Dividend Payment Date or to pay less than full
         dividends on such Dividend Payment Date, dividends payable on the
         related Dividend Payment Date will be limited as provided in such No
         Dividend Instruction (see Section 7.3(b)(v) below).

                           If any dividends will be payable on the Company
         Preferred Securities on a day that is not a Business Day, those
         dividends will instead be paid on the next Business Day. No interest or
         other payment will be due as a result of any such adjustment.

                           [LIBOR, with respect to a Determination Date, means
         the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for deposits in U.S.
         dollars for a three-month period commencing on the second London
         Banking Day immediately following that Determination Date that appears
         on Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on that
         Determination Date. If such rate does not appear on Telerate Page 3750,
         LIBOR will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in
         U.S. dollars for a three-month period commencing on the second London
         Banking Day immediately following that Determination Date and in a
         principal amount equal to an amount of not less than $[1,000,000] that
         is representative for a single transaction in such market at such time,
         are offered to prime banks in the London interbank market by four major
         banks in the London interbank market selected by the Calculation Agent,
         after consultation with the Company, at approximately 11:00 a.m.,
         London time, on that Determination Date.]

                           [The Calculation Agent will request the principal
         London office of each of such banks to provide a quotation of its rate.
         If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR with respect to
         that Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of such


                                      -27-
<PAGE>
         quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, LIBOR in respect
         of that Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates
         quoted by three major money center banks in New York City selected by
         the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company, at
         approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on that Determination
         Date for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for a
         three-month period commencing on the second London Banking Day
         immediately following that Determination Date and in a principal amount
         equal to an amount of not less than $[1,000,000]. However, if the banks
         selected by the Calculation Agent to provide quotations are not quoting
         as mentioned in this paragraph, LIBOR for the applicable period will be
         the same as LIBOR as determined on the previous Determination Date.]

                           All percentages resulting from any calculations on
         the Company Preferred Securities will be rounded, if necessary, to the
         nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five
         one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 9.876545%
         (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655)), and all dollar
         amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to
         the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upward).

                           (ii) The Company is required to pay dividends on the
         Company Preferred Securities in three circumstances, as follows:

                                    (A) If the Bank declares or pays dividends
                  or makes any other payment or distribution on any Bank Junior
                  Obligations and the Capital Limitation does not apply, then
                  the Company will be required to pay full dividends on the
                  Company Preferred Securities during the one-year period
                  beginning on and including the earlier of the date on which
                  such dividend was declared or the date on which such dividend
                  or other payment was made.

                                    (B) If the Bank or any of its subsidiaries
                  redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires any Bank Parity
                  Securities or Bank Junior Obligations for any consideration,
                  except by conversion into or exchange for shares or Bank
                  Junior Obligations and except as described below (and provided
                  that the Capital Limitation does not apply), then the Company
                  will be required to pay dividends on the Company Preferred
                  Securities during the one-year period beginning on and
                  including the date on which such redemption, repurchase or
                  other acquisition occurred.

                                    (C) If (x) the Bank or any of its
                  subsidiaries declares or pays any dividends or makes any other
                  payment or distribution on any Bank Parity Securities on any
                  date and (y) during the Relevant Period ending on and
                  including such date there occurred a Dividend Payment Date as
                  to which the Company paid no dividends or less than full
                  dividends on the Company Preferred Securities, and provided
                  that the Capital Limitation does not apply, then on that date
                  the Company will be required to pay a special dividend on the
                  Company Preferred Securities. The special dividend will be
                  payable on that date whether or not that date is otherwise a
                  Dividend Payment Date and, if it is a Dividend Payment Date,
                  will be in addition to any other dividends required to be paid
                  on such Dividend


                                      -28-
<PAGE>
                  Payment Date. The special dividend will be in an amount that,
                  when taken together with dividends previously paid on the
                  Company Preferred Securities during the Relevant Period,
                  represents the same proportion of full dividends on the
                  Company Preferred Securities for all Dividend Payment Dates
                  during the Relevant Period that the dividend on Bank Parity
                  Securities paid on such date bears to full dividends on such
                  Bank Parity Securities for the Relevant Period.

Notwithstanding paragraph (B) above, the Company will not be required to pay
dividends solely as a result of (a) repurchases, redemptions or other
acquisitions of Bank Parity Securities or ordinary shares in connection with any
employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the
benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in
connection with a dividend reinvestment or shareholder share purchase plan or in
connection with the issuance of Bank Parity Securities or Bank Junior
Obligations (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such Bank Parity
Securities or Bank Junior Obligations) as consideration in an acquisition
transaction, (b) market-making in the Bank Parity Securities or ordinary shares
as part of the securities business of the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, (c)
the purchase of fractional interests in shares of Bank Parity Securities or Bank
Junior Obligations pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such
Bank Parity Securities or Bank Junior Obligations or the security being
converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any
shareholder's rights plan, or the issuance of rights, shares or other property
under any shareholder's rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights
pursuant to any such plan, or (e) any dividend in the form of shares, warrants,
options or other rights where the dividend shares or the shares issuable upon
exercise of such warrants, options or other rights are the same shares as that
on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such
shares.

                           Any Dividend Payment Date or other date on which
         dividends on the Company Preferred Securities are required to be paid
         as described in paragraph (A), (B) or (C) above is a "Mandatory
         Dividend Payment Date." The amount of dividends required to be paid on
         any Mandatory Dividend Payment Date (after giving effect to the Capital
         Limitation, if applicable) is called the "Mandatory Dividend Payment
         Amount". If a Dividend Payment Date is a Mandatory Dividend Payment
         Date, the Company will be required to pay the Mandatory Dividend
         Payment Amount as dividends on that date whether or not there are
         Available Distributable Profits and whether or not interest is paid on
         the Subordinated Notes.

                           (iii) The prohibition on the payment of dividends on
         the Company Preferred Securities as described below is called the
         "Capital Limitation".

                           Unless the Swiss Federal Banking Commission expressly
         permits otherwise, the Company will not pay dividends on the Company
         Preferred Securities on any Dividend Payment Date (whether or not it is
         a Mandatory Dividend Payment Date) if on such date the Bank is not in
         compliance, or because of a distribution by the Bank or any of its
         subsidiaries of profits of the Bank (including a payment of dividends
         on the Company Preferred Securities) would not be in compliance, with
         the Swiss Federal Banking Commission's minimum capital adequacy
         requirements applicable to the Bank as then in effect.


                                      -29-
<PAGE>
                           (iv) The limitation or prohibition on the payment of
         dividends on the Company Preferred Securities as described below is
         called the "Distributable Profits Limitation". The Distributable
         Profits Limitation will not limit or prohibit payment of dividends up
         to the Mandatory Dividend Payment Amount as to a Mandatory Dividend
         Payment Date.

                           On or before the Dividend Payment Date in [June] of
         each year, the Bank will deliver a certificate to the Company (a
         "Distributable Profits Limitation Certificate") specifying: (i) the
         Distributable Profits of the Bank for the financial year ending on the
         preceding December 31 and (ii) the Available Distributable Profits for
         payment of dividends on the Company Preferred Securities on the
         Dividend Payment Dates in the then current year.

                           Unless the Company is required to pay as dividends
         the Mandatory Dividend Payment Amount for a Mandatory Dividend Payment
         Date, (A) the aggregate amount of dividends on the Company Preferred
         Securities that the Company may pay on the Dividend Payment Date in
         [June] of the current year may not exceed the lesser of full dividends
         and the Available Distributable Profits set forth in such Distributable
         Profits Limitation Certificate, and (B) the aggregate amount of
         dividends on the Company Preferred Securities that the Company may pay
         on any subsequent Dividend Payment Date in the current year [(or in
         [March] of the following year in the case of Dividend Payment Dates
         occurring after ____ 20*)][or in [March of the following year]] may not
         exceed the lesser of full dividends and the remaining amount of such
         Available Distributable Profits (after giving effect to the payment of
         dividends pursuant to this subclause or subclause (A), above).

                           (v) Except for the Mandatory Dividend Payment Amounts
         required to be paid on Mandatory Dividend Payment Dates:

                                    (A) dividends on Company Preferred
                  Securities will not be payable on a Dividend Payment Date if,
                  on or before the tenth Business Day immediately preceding such
                  Dividend Payment Date, the Bank delivers a No Dividend
                  Instruction to the Company instructing it not to pay dividends
                  on such Dividend Payment Date; and

                                    (B) if, on or before the tenth Business Day
                  immediately preceding such Dividend Payment Date, the Bank
                  delivers a No Dividend Instruction to the Company limiting but
                  not prohibiting the payment of dividends on such Dividend
                  Payment Date, dividends on the Company Preferred Security will
                  be payable on such Dividend Payment Date only to the extent
                  permitted by such No Dividend Instruction.

                           If a No Dividend Instruction is given, then the
         Company must promptly give notice to holders of the Company Preferred
         Securities in the manner described in Section 7.3(i) of the fact that
         it has received a No Dividend Instruction and the amount of dividends,
         if any, that will be paid on the related Dividend Payment Date.


                                      -30-
<PAGE>
                  (c) Additional Amounts. If the Company or the Trust is
required to withhold any taxes, duties or other governmental charges with
respect to any payment of dividends on the Company Preferred Securities or the
Trust Preferred Securities, the Company will be required to pay as additional
amounts included in the mandatory dividend payment (and the Bank will be
required to include in any related payment made by it under the Bank
Subordinated Guarantee) an amount sufficient that the net amount received by the
holder of the Company Preferred Securities or Trust Preferred Securities, as
applicable, after the withholding, will not be less than the Mandatory Dividend
Payment Amount. However, the Company will not be required to pay any such
additional amounts to the extent that the taxes, duties or other governmental
charges are imposed or levied by Switzerland or the Cayman Islands because the
holder or beneficial owner of Trust Preferred Securities or Company Preferred
Securities (other than the Trust):

                           (i) has some connection with Switzerland or the
         Cayman Islands, as applicable, other than being a holder or beneficial
         owner of those Trust Preferred Securities or Company Preferred
         Securities; or

                           (ii) has not made a declaration of non-residence in,
         or other lack of connection with, Switzerland or the Cayman Islands, as
         applicable, or any similar claim for exemption, if the Company has
         given the beneficial owner of those Trust Preferred Securities or
         Company Preferred Securities or its nominee at least 60 days' prior
         notice of an opportunity to make the declaration or claim.

                  (d) Ranking and Liquidation Preference. The Company Preferred
Securities ordinarily will rank senior to the Company Common Securities as to
payment of dividends. However, the Bank has the right to shift the dividend
preference of the Company Preferred Securities to the Company Common Securities
on any Dividend Payment Dates to the extent that the Mandatory Dividend Payment
Amount then required to be paid as dividends on the Company Preferred Securities
(if any) is less than full dividends on the Company Preferred Securities. If the
Bank shifts the dividend preference to the Company Common Securities, the
interest payment received by the Company on the Subordinated Notes will be
returned as dividends to the Bank as holder of the Company Common Securities
before any dividends are paid on the Company Preferred Securities.

                  As long as any Company Preferred Securities are outstanding,
the Bank, to the fullest extent permitted by law, will take no voluntary action
to cause the Company to dissolve or liquidate unless the Bank also liquidates.
If the Bank is liquidated, whether voluntarily or involuntarily (and whether in
connection with the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event or otherwise), the Company
will be liquidated.

                  If the Company dissolves, liquidates, or winds up, then, after
the claims of any creditors of the Company are satisfied, the holders of the
Company Preferred Securities will be entitled to receive, before any
distribution of assets is made to the holders of Company Junior Securities upon
liquidation, liquidating distributions in respect of the Company Preferred
Securities in the amount of the liquidation preference of their Company
Preferred Securities plus an amount equal to unpaid dividends, if any, on the
Company Preferred Securities with respect to the current Dividend Period accrued
on a daily basis to the date of liquidation, plus an amount


                                      -31-
<PAGE>
equal to unpaid Definitive Dividends for any prior Dividend Period, but without
interest and without accumulation of unpaid Nondefinitive Dividends for any
prior Dividend Period.

                  Notwithstanding and as a limitation on the foregoing, the
holders of the Company Preferred Securities may not receive liquidating
distributions in a liquidation of the Company in an amount exceeding the
liquidating distributions to which they would have been entitled had they
instead owned preferred shares of the Bank having an aggregate liquidation
preference equal to the aggregate liquidation preference of the Company
Preferred Securities and bearing dividends at the rate of dividends applicable
to the Company Preferred Securities. The holders of the Company Common
Securities will be entitled to share pro rata in any remaining assets of the
Company only after holders of the Company Preferred Securities have received the
amounts described above.

                  (e) Voting Rights. Except as expressly required by applicable
law, or except as indicated below, the holders of Company Preferred Securities
will not be entitled to vote. In the event the holders of Company Preferred
Securities are entitled to vote as indicated below, each $[1,000] [25]
liquidation preference of Company Preferred Securities will be entitled to one
vote on matters on which holders of Company Preferred Securities are entitled to
vote.

                  If at any time the aggregate of unpaid dividends equals or
exceeds an amount equal to [three semi-annual or six quarterly] dividend
payments, the holders of the Company Preferred Securities and any Company Parity
Preferred Securities, voting together as a single class, will have the exclusive
right to elect two additional Directors of their choosing. Holders of a majority
(based on the aggregate liquidation preference) of the Company Preferred
Securities and any Company Parity Preferred Securities may exercise this right
by written consent or at a meeting of holders of Company Preferred Securities
and Company Parity Preferred Securities called for such purpose. This right will
continue until all unpaid dividends have been paid in full or until full
dividends have been paid on the Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity
Preferred Securities for two consecutive Dividend Periods. While this right
continues, any vacancy in the office of the additional Directors may be filled
only by the holders of the Company Preferred Securities and any Company Parity
Preferred Securities voting as described above.

                  A meeting of holders of Company Preferred Securities or
Company Parity Preferred Securities will be called at the request of holders of
25% (based on the aggregate liquidation preference) of the Company Preferred
Securities and any Company Parity Preferred Securities.

                  As long as any Company Preferred Securities and Company Parity
Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Company may not, without the consent

         either authorized or outstanding that ranks ahead of the Company
         Preferred Securities as to dividends or as to the distribution of
         assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, except the same
         number of shares of such equity securities with the same preferences,
         conversion or other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations as
         to dividends or other distributions, qualifications or terms or

                  Any redemption of Company Preferred Securities must comply
with applicable regulatory requirements, including the prior approval of the
Swiss Federal Banking Commission if then required under applicable guidelines or
policies of the Swiss Federal Banking Commission. If dividends on any Company
Preferred Securities are unpaid, no Company Preferred Securities may be redeemed
unless all outstanding Company Preferred Securities are redeemed and the Company
may not purchase or otherwise acquire any Company Preferred Securities, except
pursuant to a purchase or exchange offer made on the same terms to holders of
all outstanding Company Preferred Securities.

                  The Company Preferred Securities will not be subject to any
sinking fund or mandatory redemption and will not be convertible into any other
securities of or limited liability company interests in the Company or any
securities of the Bank.

                  As long as any Company Preferred Securities are outstanding,
other Company Parity Preferred Securities may not be redeemed or repurchased
unless the Company concurrently redeems an approximately equal proportion of the
aggregate liquidation preference of the outstanding Company Preferred Securities
or each rating agency then rating the Company Preferred Securities informs the
Company in writing that the redemption or repurchase of such Company Parity
Preferred Securities would not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the rating
then assigned by that rating agency to the Company Preferred Securities.

                  If fewer than all of the outstanding Company Preferred
Securities are to be redeemed, the amount of Company Preferred Securities to be
redeemed shall be determined by the Board of Directors, and the securities to be
redeemed shall be determined by lot or pro rata as may be determined by the
Board of Directors in its sole discretion to be equitable; provided, that such
method satisfies any applicable requirements of any securities exchange on which
the Company Preferred Securities or any Trust Preferred Securities may then be
listed and, if the Company Preferred Securities or Trust Preferred Securities
are then held by DTC or its nominee in the form of a global security, any
applicable requirements of DTC. The Company will promptly notify the registrar
and transfer agent for the Company Preferred Securities in writing


                                      -35-
<PAGE>
of the securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any partial
redemption, the liquidation preference to be redeemed.

                  In the event that payment of the redemption price in respect
of any Company Preferred Securities is improperly withheld or refused and not
paid either by the Company or by the Bank pursuant to the Bank Subordinated
Guarantee, dividends on such Company Preferred Securities, shall continue to
accumulate from the date fixed for redemption to the date of actual payment of
such Redemption Price.

                  Any Company Preferred Securities redeemed shall be canceled.
There shall be no prescription period in respect of uncollected dividends on the
Company Preferred Securities.

                  The Preferred Securityholders, by acceptance of such Company
Preferred Securities, acknowledge and agree to the subordination provisions in,
and other terms of, the Company Preferred Securities Guarantee.

                  (g) Registrar and Transfer Agent. Wilmington Trust Company, or
another entity that the Bank may designate from time to time, will act as
registrar and transfer agent for the Company Preferred Securities.

                  Registration of transfers of Company Preferred Securities will
be effected without charge by or on behalf of the Company, but upon payment of
any tax or other governmental charges that may be imposed in connection with any
transfer or exchange. The Company will not be required to register or cause to
be registered the transfer of Company Preferred Securities after such Company
Preferred Securities have been called for redemption.

                  In the event of a partial redemption of the Company Preferred
Securities that would result in a delisting of the Trust Preferred Securities
from any securities exchange on which the Trust Preferred Securities are then
listed, the Company will redeem the Company Preferred Securities in whole.

                  (h) Notices. Notices to holders of the Company Preferred
Securities will be mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the holders'
addresses appearing in the Company's records.

                  (i) Governing Law. The Company Preferred Securities are
governed by, and shall be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of
Delaware (without regard to principles of conflict of laws).

                  (j) Additional Information. For so long as any Company
Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Company will furnish to holders and
beneficial owners of Trust Preferred Securities and Company Preferred Securities
and to prospective purchasers designated by such holders upon request the
information required to be delivered pursuant to the Securities Act.

                  (a) The Company may sell the Subordinated Notes only upon the
affirmative vote of both a majority of the Board of Directors and the holders of
two-thirds (based on the


                                      -36-

aggregate liquidation preference) of the Company Preferred Securities and
Company Parity Preferred Securities (if any), voting together as a single class.

                  (b) The Company may not agree to any modification or amendment
to the Subordinated Notes as long as any Company Preferred Securities or Company
Parity Preferred Securities (if any) are outstanding unless holders of
two-thirds (based on the aggregate liquidation preference) of the Company
Preferred Securities and Company Parity Preferred Securities (if any), voting as
a class, consent to such modification or amendment. Such consent to modification
or amendment of the Subordinated Notes shall not be required if (i) the proposed
amendment or modification would not materially and adversely affect the rights,
preferences, powers or privileges of the holders of the Company Preferred Stock
and (ii) the Company has received a letter from each of Moody's Investors
Service Inc. and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services to the effect that such
amendment will not result in a downgrading of its respective rating then
assigned to the Company Preferred Securities.

                                    DIVIDENDS

Section 9.1 Dividends.

            (a) Subject to the terms of this Article IX, Preferred
Securityholders shall receive periodic dividends, if any, in accordance with
Article VII of this Agreement or any Certificate of Designations duly adopted by
the Board of Directors, and Common Securityholders shall receive periodic
dividends and distributions, subject to Article VII of this Agreement or any
Certificate of Designations duly adopted by the Board of Directors, and to the
provisions of the Delaware Act, when, as and if declared by the Board of
Directors, in its discretion. A dividend shall constitute a distribution within
the meaning of the Delaware Act.

            (b) Securityholder shall not be entitled to receive any dividend or
other distribution with respect to any dividend payment date (and any such
dividend or other distribution shall not be considered due and payable),
irrespective of whether such dividend or other distribution is payable
automatically or has been declared by the Directors, until such time as the
Company shall have funds legally available for the payment of such dividend to
such Securityholder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Delaware
Act, and notwithstanding any provision of Section 18-606 of the Delaware Act to
the contrary, until such time, a Securityholder shall not have the status of a
creditor of the Company, or the remedies available to a creditor of the Company;
provided however that a Preferred Securityholder and a holder of Preferred Trust
Securities may exercise such rights or remedies as provided herein or in any
other agreement or document.

            Section 9.2 Limitations on Distributions. Notwithstanding any
provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not
make a distribution (including a dividend) to any Securityholder on account of a
Company Security if such distribution would violate Section 18-607 of the
Delaware Act or other applicable law.

            Section 9.3 No Dividend Instruction.

            (a) At any time, and from time to time, the Common Securityholder
may, at its option, deliver to the Company a written instruction in the form of
Annex H hereof on or before the tenth Business Day immediately preceding any
dividend payment date for the Company Preferred Securities instructing the
Company not to pay dividends, or to limit but not prohibit dividends, on such
Dividend Payment Date (a "No Dividend Instruction"). As described in Section
7.3(b)(v), upon receipt of a No Dividend Instruction with respect to the Company
Preferred Securities and except to the extent permitted by such No Dividend
Instruction, no dividend shall become due and payable on the Company Preferred
Securities (or any Company Parity Preferred Securities or Company Junior
Securities (other than the Company Common Securities)) on the dividend payment
date immediately succeeding the date of receipt of such instruction. A No
Dividend Instruction shall only be effective for the dividend payment date
immediately succeeding the date of receipt of such instruction by the Company.
If such dividend payment date is a Mandatory Dividend Payment Date, then such No
Dividend Instruction shall be of no force or effect. If at any time there is
more than one Common Securityholder, a No Dividend Instruction shall not be
effective until signed by all of the Common Securityholders.


                                      -39-

            (b) Notwithstanding Section 9.3(a), dividends on the Company
Preferred Securities will be definitive, due and payable on each Mandatory
Dividend Payment Date whether or not a No Dividend Instruction has been given or
is deemed given with respect to such Mandatory Dividend Payment Date.

soon as available after the end of each Financial Year of the Company, cause to

by the Board of Directors to obtain from the Company from time to time upon
reasonable request for any purpose reasonably related to such Securityholder's
interest as a member in the Company, information regarding the affairs of the
Company. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, the Board of Directors
may, to the maximum extent permitted by law, keep, or cause to be kept,
confidential from the Preferred Securityholders, for such period of time as the
Board of Directors deems reasonable, any information the disclosure of which the
Board of Directors reasonably believes to be in the nature of trade secrets or
other information the disclosure of which the Board of Directors in good faith
believe is not in the best interest of the Company or could damage the Company
or its business or which the Company or the Board of Directors are required by
law or by an agreement with any Person to keep confidential.

            Section 10.3 Accounting Method. For both financial and tax reporting
purposes and for purposes of determining profits and losses, the books and
records of the Company shall be kept on the accrual method of accounting applied
in a consistent manner and shall reflect all Company transactions and be
appropriate and adequate for the Company's business.

            Section 10.4 Annual Audit. As soon as practical after the end of
each Financial Year, but not later than 90 days after such end, the financial
statements of the Company shall be audited by a firm of independent certified
public accountants selected by the Board of Directors, and such financial
statements shall be accompanied by a report of such accountants containing their
opinion. The cost of such audits shall be an expense of the Company and paid by
the Company.

necessary steps to be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax
purposes and shall not file any election to be treated as anything other than a
partnership for such purposes.

of income under this Agreement.

            Section 13.1 Right of Assignee to Become a Preferred Securityholder.
An assignee of Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred
Securities shall become a Preferred Securityholder upon compliance with the

as otherwise provided herein.

            Section 13.3 Persons Deemed Preferred Securityholders. The Company
may treat the Person in whose name any Company Preferred Certificate shall be
registered on the books and records of the Company as the sole holder of such
Company Preferred Certificate and


                                      -42-
<PAGE>
of the Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities
represented by such Company Preferred Certificate for purposes of receiving
dividends or other distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever and,
accordingly, shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, not be bound to
recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Company Preferred
Certificate or in the Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred
Securities represented by such Company Preferred Certificate on the part of any
other Person, whether or not the Company shall have actual or other notice
thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the
Company agrees that at any time that the Trust shall be a holder of any Company
Preferred Securities, each holder of a preferred certificate issued by the Trust
shall, upon presentation to the Company or the Registrar of reasonable evidence
thereof, have the right to the fullest extent permitted by law and without the
need for any other action of any other person, including the trustee under the
Trust and any other holder of any other of such preferred certificates, (a) to
enforce, in the name of the Trust, the Trust's rights under the Company
Preferred Securities and the Bank Subordinated Guarantee represented by the
preferred certificates of such holder and (b) to withdraw from the Trust upon
written notice to such trustee and the Company and hold directly the underlying
Company Preferred Securities represented by such preferred certificates (in
which case such holder will be entitled directly to enforce its rights under the
Bank Subordinated Guarantee).

            Section 13.4 The Company Preferred Certificates.

            (a) Company Preferred Certificates evidencing fractions of Company
Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities shall not be issued.
Each Company Preferred Certificate shall be signed, manually or by facsimile, by
the President, any Vice-President or the Secretary of the Company. Company
Preferred Certificates, other than Company Preferred Certificates held by a
Trust, shall also be signed, manually or by facsimile, by the Registrar. Company
Preferred Certificates bearing the signatures of individuals who were, at the
time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf
of the Company shall be validly issued notwithstanding that such individuals or
any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the delivery of such
Company Preferred Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of
delivery of such Company Preferred Certificates. A transferee of a Company
Preferred Certificate shall become a Securityholder, upon due registration of
such Company Preferred Certificate in such transferee's name pursuant to Section
13.5.

            (b) Upon their original issuance, Company Preferred Certificates
evidencing the Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred
Securities shall be issued in the form of one or more Company Preferred
Certificates.

            Section 13.5 Transfer of Company Preferred Certificates.

            (a) The Board of Directors shall provide for the registration and
transfer of each class of Company Preferred Certificates in a record thereof
(each a "Securities Register") and shall appoint a securities registrar (the
"Registrar") and transfer agent (the "Transfer Agent") to act on its behalf;
provided, however, that without any action on the part of the Board of Directors
being necessary, Wilmington Trust Company is hereby appointed as the initial
Registrar and Transfer Agent. Subject to the other provisions of this Article
XIII, upon surrender


                                      -43-
<PAGE>
for registration of transfer of any Company Preferred Certificate, the Board of
Directors shall cause one or more new Company Preferred Certificates to be
issued in the name of the designated transferee or transferees. Every Company
Preferred Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer shall be
accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the
Board of Directors duly executed by the Preferred Securityholder or his or her
attorney duly authorized in writing. Any registration of transfer shall be
effected upon the Transfer Agent being satisfied with the documents of title and
identity of the Person making the request upon the receipt by the Transfer Agent
of any applicable certificate relating to transfer restrictions as described
below, and subject to such reasonable regulations as the Company may from time
to time establish. Each Company Preferred Certificate surrendered for
registration of transfer shall be canceled by the Board of Directors. A
transferee of a Company Preferred Certificate shall be admitted to the Company
as a Preferred Securityholder and shall be entitled to the rights and subject to
the obligations of a Preferred Securityholder hereunder upon receipt by such
transferee of a Company Preferred Certificate. By acceptance of a Company
Preferred Certificate, each transferee shall be bound by this Agreement. The
transferor of a Preferred Certificate, in whole, shall cease to be a Preferred
Securityholder at the time that the transferee of such Company Preferred
Certificate is admitted to the Company as a Preferred Securityholder in
accordance with this Section 13.5.

            (b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Company
Preferred Certificate at the office or agency of the Company or the Registrar
maintained for that purpose, subject to Section 13.6, the Company shall deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Registrar in a form duly executed on behalf of
the Company in the manner provided for in Section 13.4(a), and the Registrar
shall countersign in the manner provided in and to the extent required by
Section 13.4(a) and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or
transferees, one or more new Company Preferred Certificates in authorized
denominations of a like aggregate liquidation preference dated the date of
execution by such Registrar.

            The Registrar shall not be required, (i) to issue, register the
transfer of or exchange any Company Preferred Security or Company Parity
Preferred Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15
days before the day of selection for redemption of such Company Preferred
Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities and ending at the close of
business on the day of mailing of the notice of redemption, or (ii) to register
the transfer of or exchange any Company Preferred Security or Company Parity
Preferred Securities so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in
the case of any such Company Preferred Security or Company Parity Preferred
Securities to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

            No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of Company Preferred Certificates, but the Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be
imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Company Preferred
Certificates.

            Section 13.6 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Company Preferred
Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Company Preferred Certificate shall be
surrendered to the Registrar, or if the Registrar shall receive evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Company Preferred
Certificate, and (b) there shall be delivered to the Registrar and

                                      -44-
<PAGE>
the Company such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each
of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Company Preferred
Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall
sign, the Registrar shall countersign to the extent required under Section
13.4(a), and the Company and the Registrar shall make available for delivery
(all in the manner provided for in Section 13.4), in exchange for or in lieu of
any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Company Preferred Certificate, a new
Company Preferred Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination. In
connection with the issuance of any new Company Preferred Certificate under this
Section 13.6, the Company or the Registrar may require the payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in
connection therewith. Any duplicate Company Preferred Certificate issued
pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of a limited
liability company interest in the Company corresponding to that evidenced by the
lost, stolen or destroyed Company Preferred Certificate, as if originally
issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Company Preferred
Certificate shall be found at any time.

            Section 13.7 Restrictions on Transfers of Securities.

            (a) Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred
Securities may not be sold or otherwise transferred unless such securities are
registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from the registration
requirements thereof is available, and the Company Preferred Certificates shall
bear a legend to this effect unless the Bank and the Company determine otherwise
in compliance with applicable law.

            (b) No Company Preferred Security or Company Parity Preferred
Security shall be transferred, in whole or in part, except in accordance with
the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement or any Certificate of
Designations. Any transfer or purported transfer of any Company Preferred
Security or Company Parity Preferred Security not made in accordance with this
Agreement shall be null and void.

            (c) The Company Common Securities may be sold, assigned or otherwise
transferred by the Bank to a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the
Bank, which subsidiary shall be admitted as a member of the Company with respect
to the Company Common Securities transferred upon such Person's execution and
delivery of a counterpart of this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE XIV
                        MERGERS, CONSOLIDATIONS AND SALES

            Section 14.1 The Company. The Company may not, without the prior
approval of holders of at least 66-2/3% of the outstanding Company Preferred
Securities and any Company Parity Preferred Securities (based on the aggregate
liquidation preference), voting as a single class, merge, convert, consolidate,
reorganize or effect any other business combination involving the Company,
unless the resulting entity will have no class or series of equity securities
either authorized or outstanding that ranks ahead of the Company Preferred
Securities or the Company Parity Preferred Securities as to dividends or as to
the distribution of assets upon liquidation,

                                      -45-
<PAGE>
dissolution or winding up, except the same number of shares of such equity
securities with the same preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers,
restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications
or terms or conditions or redemption as the shares of equity securities of the
Company that are authorized and outstanding immediately prior to such
transaction, and each holder of Company Preferred Securities or the Company
Parity Preferred Securities immediately prior to such transaction shall receive
securities with the same preferences, conversion or other rights, voting powers,
restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications
or terms or conditions or redemption of the resulting entity as the Company
Preferred Securities or the Company Parity Preferred Securities held by such
holder immediately prior to the transaction.

                                   ARTICLE XV
                    DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

            Section 15.1 No Dissolution. The Company shall not be dissolved by
the admission of Securityholders. The death, insanity, retirement, resignation,
expulsion, bankruptcy or dissolution of a Securityholder, or the occurrence of
any other event which terminates the continued membership of a Securityholder in
the Company, shall not in and of itself cause the Company to be dissolved and
its affairs wound up. Upon the occurrence of any such event, the business of the
Company shall be continued without dissolution. The bankruptcy of a
Securityholder (as defined in Section 18-101(1) and 18-304 of the Delaware Act)
shall not cause a Securityholder to cease to be a member of the Company.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Securityholder
waives any right it might have under the Delaware Act to agree in writing to
dissolve the Company upon the bankruptcy of a Securityholder, or the occurrence
of an event that causes a Securityholder to cease to be a member of the Company.

            Section 15.2 Events Causing Dissolution. The Company shall be
dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up in accordance with the Delaware Act
if any of the following events occur:

                  (a) a decree or order by a court of competent jurisdiction
      shall have been entered adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or
      approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization,
      arrangement, adjustment or composition of the Company under any applicable
      federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, and such decree or order shall
      have continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 90 days; or a
      decree or order of a court having jurisdiction in the premises for the
      appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator or
      similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or of all or
      substantially all of its property, or for the winding up or liquidation of
      its affairs, shall have been entered, and such decree or order shall have
      continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 90 days or the Company
      shall institute proceedings to be adjudicated a voluntary bankrupt, or
      shall consent to the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against it, or
      shall file a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization,
      arrangement, adjustment or composition under any applicable federal or
      state bankruptcy or similar law, or shall consent to the filing of any
      such petition, or shall consent to the appointment of a receiver,
      liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator or

                                      -46-
<PAGE>
      similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or of all or
      substantially all of its property, or shall make an assignment for the
      benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its
      debts generally as they become due and its willingness to be adjudged a
      bankrupt, or limited liability company action shall be taken by the
      Company in furtherance of any of the aforesaid purposes;

                  (b) the Bank is liquidated;

                  (c) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the
      Company under Section 18-802 of the Delaware Act;

                  (d) in connection with the redemption, repurchase or exchange
      of all outstanding Company Preferred Securities;

                  (e) the written consent of all Securityholders;

                  (f) at any time there are no members of the Company unless the
      Company is continued in accordance with the Delaware Act or this
      Agreement; or

                  (g) the entry of a judgment initiating judicial liquidation in
      respect of the Bank under Swiss law or any other liquidation of the Bank
      under Swiss law.

            Section 15.3 Notice of Dissolution. Upon the dissolution of the
Company, the Board of Directors shall promptly notify the Securityholders of
such dissolution.

            Section 15.4 Liquidation. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Board
of Directors or, in the event that the dissolution is caused by an event
described in Sections 15.2(b) or (c) of this Agreement and there are no
Directors, a Person or Persons who may be approved by the Preferred
Securityholders holding not less than a majority in liquidation amount, as
liquidating trustees, shall immediately commence to wind up the Company's
affairs; provided, however, that a reasonable time shall be allowed for the
orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company and the satisfaction of
liabilities to creditors so as to minimize the losses attendant upon a
liquidation. The proceeds of liquidation shall be distributed, as realized, in
the manner provided in Section 18-804 of the Delaware Act, subject to the
provisions of Section 15.5.

            Section 15.5 Certain Restrictions on Liquidation Payments. In the
event of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution of the Company (other than as
set forth in any Certificate of Designations), Preferred Securityholders holding
Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities at the time
outstanding shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Company
legally available for distribution to Securityholders, before any distribution
of assets is made to Common Securityholders or any other Company Junior
Securities, liquidating distributions in respect of the Company Preferred
Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities in the amount of the
liquidation preference, plus an amount equal to unpaid dividends, if any,
thereon with respect to the current Dividend Payment accrued on a daily basis to
the date of liquidation, plus an amount equal to unpaid Definitive Dividends for
any prior Dividend Period, but without interest and without accumulation of
unpaid Nondefinitive Dividends for any prior dividend period. If, upon any such
liquidation, the liquidating distribution can be paid only in part because the
Company has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate


                                      -47-
<PAGE>
Liquidation Distribution, then the amounts payable directly by the Company on
the Company Preferred Securities or Company Parity Preferred Securities shall be
paid on a pro rata basis.

            Section 15.6 Termination. The Company shall terminate when all of
the assets of the Company have been distributed in the manner provided for in
this Article XV, and the Certificate of Formation shall have been canceled in
the manner required by the Delaware Act.

                                  ARTICLE XVI
                                 MISCELLANEOUS

            Section 16.1 Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by a written
instrument executed by an Officer designated by the Board of Directors without
the consent of any Preferred Securityholder; provided, however, that no
amendment shall be made, and any such purported amendment shall be void and
ineffective, to the extent that such amendment (a) would have a material adverse
effect on a Preferred Securityholder (including, without limitation, amendments
to Sections 6.2 and 6.7), (b) would result in causing the Company to be treated
as anything other than a partnership for purposes of United States federal
income taxation would result in the Company being deemed to be required to
register under the Investment Company Act, or (c) has not received the prior
requisite approval of the holders of the Company Preferred Securities and the
Company Parity Preferred Securities, as applicable, as may be expressly provided
in this Agreement, the By-Laws or any Certificate of Designations duly adopted
by the Board of Directors.

            Section 16.2 Amendment of Certificate of Formation. In the event
this Agreement shall be amended pursuant to Section 16.1, the Board of Directors
shall cause the Certificate of Formation to be amended to reflect such change if
it deems such amendment of the Certificate of Formation to be necessary or
appropriate.

            Section 16.3 Successors. This Agreement shall be binding as to the
executors, administrators, estates, heirs and legal successors, or nominees or
representatives, of the Securityholders.

            Section 16.4 Law; Severability. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE. In
particular, this Agreement shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to
comply with all of the terms and conditions of the Delaware Act. If,
nevertheless, it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that
any provisions or wording of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable
under the Delaware Act or other applicable law, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not invalidate the entire Agreement. In that case, this
Agreement shall be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make
it enforceable or valid within the requirements of applicable law, and, in the
event such term or provisions cannot be so limited, this Agreement shall be
construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable provisions. If it shall be
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision relating to
the distributions and allocations of the Company or to any fee payable by the
Company is invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement shall be construed or
interpreted so as (a) to make it enforceable

                                      -48-
<PAGE>
or valid and (b) to make the distributions and allocations as closely equivalent
to those set forth in this Agreement as is permissible under applicable law.

            Section 16.5 Filings. Following the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, the Board of Directors shall cause to be promptly prepared any
documents required to be filed and recorded under the Delaware Act, and the
Board of Directors shall cause to be promptly filed and recorded each such
document in accordance with the Delaware Act and, to the extent required by
local law, to be filed and recorded or notice thereof to be published in the
appropriate place in each jurisdiction in which the Company may hereafter
establish a place of business. The Board of Directors shall also promptly cause
to be filed, recorded and published such statements of fictitious business name
and any other notices, certificates, statements or other instruments required by
any provision of any applicable law of the United States or any state or other
jurisdiction which governs the conduct of its business from time to time.

            Section 16.6 Power of Attorney. Each Preferred Securityholder does
hereby constitute and appoint each Person specifically authorized by the Board
of Directors to act as its true and lawful representative and attorney-in-fact,
in its name, place and stead to make, execute, sign, deliver and file (a) any
amendment of the Certificate of Formation required because of an amendment to
this Agreement or in order to effectuate any change in the ownership of the
Company Securities, (b) any amendments to this Agreement made in accordance with
the terms hereof and (c) all such other instruments, documents and certificates
which may from time to time be required by the laws of the United States of
America, the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction, or any political
subdivision or agency thereof, to effectuate, implement and continue the valid
and subsisting existence of the Company or to dissolve the Company or for any
other purpose consistent with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated
hereby.

            The power of attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and
shall (a) survive and not be affected by the subsequent death, incapacity,
disability, dissolution, termination or bankruptcy of the Preferred
Securityholder granting the same or the transfer of all or any portion of such
Preferred Securityholder's Preferred Securities and (b) extend to such Preferred
Securityholder's successors, assigns and legal representatives.

            Section 16.7 Exculpation.

            (a) No Director or Officer shall have personal liability to the
Company or the Securityholders for monetary damages for breach of, in the case
of a Director, such Director's fiduciary duty (if any) or, in the case of a
Director or an Officer, for any act or omission performed or omitted by such
Director or Officer in good faith on behalf of the Company, except for such
Director's or Officer's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

            (b) Each Director and Officer shall be fully protected in relying in
good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions,
reports or statements presented to the Company by any Person as to matters that
such Director or Officer reasonably believes are within such other Person's
professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care
by or on behalf of the Company, including information, opinions, reports or
statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits,
losses, or any

                                      -49-
<PAGE>
other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which
distributions to Securityholders might properly be paid.

            Section 16.8 Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, each Director and Officer shall be entitled to indemnification
from the Company for any loss, damage, claim or expense (including reasonable
attorney's fees) incurred by such Director or Officer by reason of any act or
omission performed or omitted by such Director or Officer in good faith on
behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope
of authority conferred on such Director or Officer by this Agreement, except
with respect to any act or omission determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such
Director or Officer; provided, however, that any indemnity under this Section
16.8 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and no
Securityholder shall have any personal liability on account thereof. The right
to indemnification under this Section 16.8 is a contract right. The Company may
purchase and maintain insurance to protect any director or officer against
liability asserted against him or her, or incurred by him or her, arising out of
his or her status as such.

            Without limiting the foregoing, the Company's directors shall have
no personal liability to the Company or its Securityholders for monetary damages
(i) for not voting to take enforcement action with respect to the Subordinated
Notes or other Affiliate Securities owned by the Company, if any, prior to the
occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event or (ii) at any time for breach of any such
director's fiduciary duty (if any) except for such director's gross negligence
or willful misconduct.

            Section 16.9 Additional Documents. Each Preferred Securityholder,
upon the request of the Board of Directors, agrees to perform all further acts
and execute, acknowledge and deliver any documents that may be reasonably
necessary to carry out the provisions of this Agreement.

            Section 16.10 Notices. All notices provided for in this Agreement
shall be in writing, duly signed by the party giving such notice, and shall be

it is agreed that the Administrator assumes no liability with respect to any of
the Company's obligations under the Transaction Documents.

            The Administrator shall perform its duties hereunder diligently and
with the same standard of care exercised by a prudent person in connection with
the performance of the same or similar duties and, in no event with less care
than the Administrator exercises or would exercise in connection with the same
or similar obligations if those obligations were the direct obligations of the
Administrator.

            Section 6. Reliance on Information Obtained from Third Parties. The
Company recognizes that the accuracy and completeness of the records maintained
and the information supplied by the Administrator hereunder is dependent upon
the accuracy and completeness of the information obtained by the Administrator
from the parties to the Transaction Documents and other sources and the
Administrator shall not be responsible for any inaccuracy in the information so
obtained or for any inaccuracy in the records maintained by the Administrator
hereunder that may result therefrom.

                                 SECURITYHOLDERS

            Section 1.1. Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of Securityholders
may be held at such date, time and place either within or without the State of
Delaware if and as may be decided and designated by the Board of Directors from
time to time; provided, however the Company shall not be required to have an
annual meeting of Securityholders. Any other proper business may be transacted
at the annual meeting.

            Section 1.2. Special Meetings. Special meetings of Securityholders
may be called at any time by the Chairman of the Board, if any, the President or
the Board of Directors, to be held at such date, time and place either within or
without the State of Delaware as may be stated in the notice of the meeting. A
special meeting of Securityholders shall be called by the Secretary upon the
written request, stating the purpose of the meeting, of Securityholders who
together own of record a majority of the Securities entitled to vote at such
meeting.

            Section 1.3. Notice of Meetings. Whenever Securityholders are
required or permitted to take any action at a meeting, a written notice of the
meeting shall be given which shall state the place, date and hour of the
meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for
which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise provided by law, the written
notice of any meeting shall be given not less than ten nor more than sixty days
before the date of the meeting to each Securityholder entitled to vote at such
meeting. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed to be given when deposited in
the United States mail, postage prepaid, directed to the Securityholder at such
Securityholder's address as it appears on the records of the Company.

            Section 1.4. Adjournments. Any meeting of Securityholders, annual or
special, may be adjourned from time to time, to reconvene at the same or some
other place, and notice


                                      C-1
<PAGE>
need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof
are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned
meeting the Company may transact any business which might have been transacted
at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty days, or if
after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a
notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each Securityholder of record
entitled to vote at the meeting.

            Section 1.5. Quorum. At each meeting of Securityholders, except
where otherwise provided by law or the Agreement or these By-laws, the holders
of at least 50% of the Securities entitled to vote on a matter at the meeting,
present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum. In the
absence of a quorum of the holders of Securities entitled to vote on a matter,
the holders of a majority of the Securities present or represented may adjourn
such meeting from time to time in the manner provided by Section 1.4 of these
By-laws until a quorum shall be so present or represented. Securities other than
Common Securities belonging on the record date for the meeting to the Company or
an Affiliate of the Company shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for
quorum purposes.

            Section 1.6. Organization. Meetings of Securityholders shall be
presided over by the Chairman of the Board, if any, or in the absence of the
Chairman of the Board by the President, or in the absence of the President by a
Vice President, or in the absence of the foregoing persons, by a chairman
designated by the Board of Directors, or in the absence of such designation, by
a chairman chosen at the meeting. The Secretary, or in the absence of the
Secretary, an Assistant Secretary, shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in
the absence of the Secretary and any Assistant Secretary, the chairman of the
meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

            Section 1.7. Voting; Proxies. Unless otherwise provided in the
Agreement, each Securityholder entitled to vote at any meeting of
Securityholders shall have voting power proportionate to the outstanding amount,
based on initial issue price, of the Securities held by such Securityholder that
have voting power upon the matter in question. Each Securityholder entitled to
vote at a meeting of Securityholders or to express consent or dissent to action
in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for
such Securityholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon
after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period.
A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable
and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to
support an irrevocable power, regardless of whether the interest with which it
is coupled is an interest in the Securities themselves or an interest in the
Company generally. A Securityholder may revoke any proxy which is not
irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an
instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing
a later date with the Secretary of the Company. Voting at meetings of
Securityholders need not be by written ballot unless the holders of a majority
of the outstanding Securities entitled to vote thereon present in person or
represented by proxy at such meeting shall so determine. Directors shall be
designated, removed and replaced as provided in the Agreement and Article II
hereof. Other than in the case of any matter expressly set forth in the
Agreement for which a higher vote may be required, the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the Securities present in person or represented by
proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act
of the Securityholders.

            Section 1.8. Fixing Date for Determination of Securityholders of
Record. In order that the Company may determine the Securityholders entitled to
notice of or to vote at any meeting of Securityholders or any adjournment
thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall
not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted
by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty
nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is
fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining Securityholders
entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Securityholders shall be at the
close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given,
or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the
day on which the meeting is held. A determination of Securityholders of record
entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Securityholders shall apply to
any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors
may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

            In order that the Company may determine the Securityholders entitled
to consent to action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may
fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the
resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and
which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the
resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no
record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for
determining Securityholders entitled to consent to action in writing without a
meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by law,
shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the
action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company by delivery to
(a) its registered office in the State of Delaware, (b) its principal place of
business, or (c) an Officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book
in which proceedings of meetings of Securityholders are recorded. Delivery made
to the Company's registered office shall be by hand or by certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by
the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by
law, the record date for determining Securityholders entitled to consent to
action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day
on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

            In order that the Company may determine the Securityholders entitled
to receive payment of any distribution or allotment of any rights or the
Securityholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any exchange of
Securities, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of
Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date
upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record
date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action. If no record date
is fixed, the record date for determining Securityholders for any such purpose
shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors
adopts the resolution relating thereto.

            Section 1.9. List of Securityholders Entitled to Vote. The Secretary
shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of
Securityholders, a complete list of the Securityholders entitled to vote at the
meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each
Securityholder and the amount of Securities registered in the name of each
Securityholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any
Securityholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business
hours, for a period of at least ten days


                                      C-3
<PAGE>
prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to
be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not
so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also
be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time
thereof and may be inspected by any Securityholder who is present.

            Section 1.10. Consent of Securityholders in Lieu of Meeting. Unless
otherwise provided in the Agreement or by law, any action required by law to be
taken at any annual or special meeting of Securityholders of the Company, or any
action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such
Securityholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and
without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so
taken, shall be signed by the holders of outstanding Securities having not less
than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take
such action at a meeting at which all Securities entitled to vote thereon were
present and voted and shall be delivered to the Company by delivery to (a) its
registered office in the State of Delaware by hand or by certified mail or
registered mail, return receipt requested, (b) its principal place of business,
or (c) an Officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which
proceedings of meetings of Securityholders are recorded. Every written consent
shall bear the date of signature of each Securityholder who signs the consent
and no written consent shall be effective to take the action referred to therein
unless, within sixty days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner
required by this By-Law to the Company, written consents signed by holders
representing a sufficient amount of Securities to take action are delivered to
the Company by delivery to (a) its registered office in the State of Delaware by
hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, (b) its
principal place of business, or (c) an Officer or agent of the Company having
custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of Securityholders are
recorded. Prompt notice of the taking of the action without a meeting by less
than unanimous written consent shall be given to those Securityholders who have
not consented in writing.

                                   ARTICLE II
                               BOARD OF DIRECTORS

            2.1. Number; Powers; By-laws. The business and affairs of the
Company shall be managed by or under the direction of a Board composed of not
less than three nor more than five Directors. The Board shall manage the
business and affairs of the Company and may exercise all powers in connection
therewith, except for such powers as are required to be exercised by
Securityholders, all in accordance with the Agreement, these By-laws and
applicable law. Except to the extent that the Board or the Securityholders
confer such authority on a Director, no Director shall have the authority to
bind the Company.

            2.2. Voting Power. Each Director shall, in the consideration of any
matter by the Board, have a single vote at the time such vote is taken or made
(whether at a meeting or by written consent). Except where a greater percentage
approval may be provided for herein or in the Agreement or by law, an action
shall be deemed approved by the Board only if it has been approved by a majority
of the Directors.

            2.3. Quorum. At all meetings of the Board, the presence of at least
a majority of Directors shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business. In case at any meeting of the

                                      C-4
<PAGE>
Board a quorum shall not be present, any Director present may adjourn the
meeting from time to time until a quorum shall be present.

            2.4. Designation; Removal; Replacement. The term of office of a
Director shall be until the earliest of the following events: (i) his or her
successor is designated or (ii) he or she resigns or is removed. Any Director
may be removed, with or without cause by majority vote of the remaining
Directors. In the event of the resignation, removal or death of a Director, such
Director shall be replaced by another person designated by majority vote of the
remaining Directors. Any Director may resign at any time upon written notice to
the Board of Directors or to the President or the Secretary of the Company. Such
resignation shall take effect at the time specified therein, and unless
otherwise specified therein no acceptance of such resignation shall be necessary
to make it effective.

            Section 2.5. Regular Meetings. Regular meetings of the Board of
Directors may be held at such places within or without the State of Delaware and
at such times as the Board may from time to time determine, and if so determined
notice thereof need not be given.

            Section 2.6. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board of
Directors may be held at any time or place within or without the State of
Delaware whenever called by the Chairman of the Board, by the President or by
any two Directors. Reasonable notice thereof shall be given by the person or
persons calling the meeting.

            Section 2.7. Participation in Meetings by Conference Telephone
Permitted. Unless otherwise restricted by the Agreement or these By-laws, the
Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board, may participate in
a meeting of the Board or of such committee, as the case may be, by means of
conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all
persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a
meeting pursuant to this By-Law shall constitute presence in person at such
meeting.

            Section 2.8. Organization. Meetings of the Board of Directors shall
be presided over by the Chairman of the Board, or in the absence of the Chairman
of the Board by the President, or in their absence, by a chairman chosen at the
meeting. The Secretary, or in the absence of the Secretary, an Assistant
Secretary, shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in the absence of the
Secretary and any Assistant Secretary, the chairman of the meeting may appoint
any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

            Section 2.9. Action by Directors Without a Meeting. Unless otherwise
restricted by the Agreement or these By-laws, any action required or permitted
to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or of any committee
thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all of the Board or of such
committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or
writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board or committee.

                                   ARTICLE III
                                   COMMITTEES

            Section 3.1. Committees. The Board of Directors may, by resolution
of the Board adopted by majority vote, designate one or more committees, each
committee to consist of

                                      C-5
<PAGE>
one or more of the Directors of the Company. Any such committee, to the extent
provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors or in these By-laws, shall
have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors in
the management of the business and affairs of the Company, and may authorize the
seal of the Company to be affixed to all papers which may require it; but no
such committee shall have the power or authority in reference to amending the
Certificate of Formation, adopting an agreement of merger, consolidation or
conversion, recommending to the Securityholders the sale, lease or exchange of
all or substantially all of the Company's property and assets, recommending to
the Securityholders a dissolution of the Company or a revocation of a
dissolution, amending these By-laws and, unless the resolution, these By-laws or
the Agreement expressly so provides, no such committee shall have the power or
authority to authorize the issuance of Securities, to adopt a certificate of
ownership and merger, consolidation or conversion or to remove or indemnify
Officers or Directors.

            Section 3.2. Committee Rules. Unless the Board of Directors
otherwise provides, each committee designated by the Board may adopt, amend and
repeal rules for the conduct of its business. In the absence of a provision by
the Board or a provision in the rules of such committee to the contrary, a
majority of the members of such committee shall constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business, the vote of a majority of the members present at a
meeting at the time of such vote if a quorum is then present shall be the act of
such committee, and in other respects each committee shall conduct its business
in the same manner as the Board conducts its business pursuant to Article II of
these By-laws.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                                    OFFICERS

            Section 4.1. Officers; Election. As soon as practicable after the
annual meeting of Securityholders in each year, the Board of Directors shall
elect a President and a Secretary, and may also elect one or more Vice
Presidents, one or more Assistant Vice Presidents, one or more Assistant
Secretaries, a Treasurer and one or more Assistant Treasurers and such other
Officers as the Board may deem desirable or appropriate and may give any of them
such further designations or alternate titles as it considers desirable. Any
number of offices may be held by the same person unless the Agreement or these
By-laws otherwise provide.

            Section 4.2. Term of Office; Resignation; Removal; Vacancies. Unless
otherwise provided in the resolution of the Board of Directors electing any
Officer, each Officer shall hold office until his or her successor is elected
and qualified or until his or her earlier resignation or removal. Any Officer
may resign at any time upon written notice to the Board or to the President or
the Secretary of the Company. Such resignation shall take effect at the time
specified therein, and, unless otherwise specified therein, no acceptance of
such resignation shall be necessary to make it effective. The Board may remove
any Officer with or without cause at any time. Any such removal shall be without
prejudice to the contractual rights of such Officer, if any, with the Company,
but the election of an Officer shall not of itself create contractual rights.
Any vacancy occurring in any office of the Company by death, resignation,
removal or otherwise may be filled by the Board at any regular or special
meeting.

            Section 4.3. Powers and Duties. The Officers of the Company shall
have such powers and duties in the management of the Company as shall be stated
in these By-laws or in a

                                      C-6
<PAGE>
resolution of the Board of Directors which is not inconsistent with these
By-laws and, to the extent not so stated, as generally pertain to comparable
offices in a corporation organized under the General Corporation Law of the
State of Delaware, subject to the control of the Board. The Secretary shall have
the duty to record the proceedings of the meetings of the Securityholders, the
Board of Directors and any committees in a book to be kept for that purpose. The
Board may require any Officer, agent or employee to give security for the
faithful performance of his or her duties.

                                    ARTICLE V
                                   SECURITIES

            Section 5.1. Certificates for Securities. The Preferred Securities
in the Company shall be registered in certificated form. If such certificate is
manually countersigned by a transfer agent or by a registrar, any other
signature on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any Officer who has
signed or whose facsimile signature has been placed upon a certificate shall
have ceased to be such Officer before such certificate is issued, it may be
issued by the Company with the same effect as if such person were such Officer
at the date of issue.

            Section 5.2. Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates; Issuance of New
Certificates. The Company may issue a new certificate representing Securities in
the place of any certificate theretofore issued by it, alleged to have been
lost, stolen or destroyed, and the Company may require the owner of the lost,
stolen or destroyed certificate, or such owner's legal representative, to give
the Company a bond sufficient to indemnify it against any claim that may be made
against it on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such
certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated
Securities.

                                   ARTICLE VI
                                  MISCELLANEOUS

            Section 6.1. Seal. The Company may have a company seal which shall
have the name of the Company inscribed thereon and shall be in such form as may
be approved from time to time by the Board of Directors. The Company seal may be
used by causing it or a facsimile thereof to be impressed or affixed or in any
other manner reproduced.

            Section 6.2. Waiver of Notice of Meetings of Securityholders,
Directors and Committees. Whenever notice is required to be given by law or
under any provision of the Agreement or these By-laws, a written waiver thereof,
signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated
therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a
meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the
person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning
of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not
lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the
purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Securityholders, Directors or
a committee of Directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice
unless so required by the Agreement or these By-laws.

            Section 6.3. Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Employees.
The Company shall indemnify to the full extent permitted under the Delaware Act
and other


                                      C-7
<PAGE>
applicable law any person made or threatened to be made a party to any action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, by
reason of the fact that such person or such person's testator or intestate is or
was a Director, Officer or employee of the Company or serves or served at the
request of the Company any other enterprise as a Director, director, officer or
employee except for such Director's or Officer's gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred by any such
person in defending any such action, suit or proceeding shall be paid or
reimbursed by the Company promptly upon receipt by it of an undertaking of such
person to repay such expenses if it shall ultimately be determined that such
person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. The rights provided to
any person by this By-Law shall be enforceable against the Company by such
person who shall be presumed to have relied upon it in serving or continuing to
serve as a Director, Officer or employee as provided above. No amendment of this
By-Law shall impair the rights of any person arising at any time with respect to
events occurring prior to such amendment. For purposes of this By-Law, the term
"Company" shall include any predecessor of the Company and any constituent
company (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed by the Company in
a consolidation or merger; the term "other enterprise" shall include any limited
liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or employee
benefit plan; service "at the request of the Company" shall include service as a
Director, Officer or employee of the Company which imposes duties on, or
involves services by, such Director, Officer or employee with respect to an
employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; any excise taxes
assessed on a person with respect to an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to
be indemnifiable expenses; and action by a person with respect to an employee
benefit plan which such person reasonably believes to be in the interest of the
participants and beneficiaries of such plan shall be deemed to be action not
opposed to the best interests of the Company. The rights conferred on any Person
by this Section 6.3 shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such Person
may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of these By-Laws, the
Agreement, any other agreement, vote of Securityholders or disinterested
Directors or otherwise. The Company's obligation, if any, to indemnify any
Person who was or is serving at its request as a director, officer, employee or
agent of any other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount such Person may
collect as indemnification from such other enterprise. Any repeal or
modification of the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.4 shall not adversely
affect any right of protection hereunder of any Person in respect of any act or
omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

            Section 6.4. Interested Directors; Quorum. No contract or
transaction between the Company and one or more of its Directors or Officers, or
between the Company and any other limited liability company, corporation,
partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its
Directors or Officers are Directors or officers, or have a financial interest,
shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the Director
or Officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of
Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or
solely because his or her or their votes are counted for such purpose, if: (1)
the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the
contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board or the
committee, and the Board or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or
transaction by the affirmative votes of disinterested Directors, even though the
disinterested Directors be less than a quorum; or (2) the material facts as to
his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are
disclosed or are known to the Securityholders entitled to vote thereon, and the
contract or

                                      C-8
<PAGE>
transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the
Securityholders; or (3) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Company as
of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified, by the Board, a committee
thereof or the Securityholders. Common or interested Directors may be counted in
determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or
of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

            Section 6.5. Form of Records. Any records maintained by the Company
in the regular course of its business, including its Securities ledger, books of
account and minute books, may be kept on, or be in the form of, punch cards,
magnetic tape or disk, photographs, microphotographs or any other information
storage device, provided that the records so kept can be converted into clearly
legible form within a reasonable time. The Company shall so convert any records
so kept upon the request of any person entitled to inspect the same.

            Section 6.6. Amendment of By-laws. These By-laws may be amended or
repealed, and new by-laws adopted, by the Board of Directors in accordance with
the Agreement.

            Section 6.7. Governing Law. These By-laws shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard
to principles of conflict of laws).

of exercising control over such issuers, (ii) underwrite securities of other
issuers, (iii) actively trade in investments, (iv) offer securities in exchange
for property or (v) make loans to third parties, including, without limitation,
officers, directors or other affiliates of the Company.

      The Company may not hold or invest in any securities other than the
Subordinated Notes issued by the Cayman Islands branch of the Bank with an
aggregate principal amount of $o or other securities issued by the Bank acting
through a branch, agency or other office located outside of the United States or
by a non-U.S. branch of a non-U.S. subsidiary of the Bank (together, "Eligible
Investments"). With respect to any Eligible Investments other than the
Subordinated Notes purchased by the Company, the terms thereof must be
established in good faith to reflect, to the extent deemed advisable by the
Bank, arm's-length market terms at the time of purchase and the purchase by the
Company of Eligible Investments must be approved by the affirmative vote of a
majority of the entire Board of Directors.

      Upon receipt at of the principal amount of the Subordinated Notes, the

Banking Commission to do so, if then required), apply such amount to the
redemption price of the Company Preferred Securities.

      Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such
terms in the Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement, dated
