            DECLARATION OF TRUST OF KELLOGG COMPANY CAPITAL TRUST II

         This Declaration of Trust ("Declaration"), dated and effective as of
October 22, 2001, among Kellogg Company, a Delaware corporation, as the sponsor
of the trust (the "Sponsor") and by the undersigned Trustee (the "Trustee", and,
together with all persons from time to time duly appointed and serving as
trustees in accordance with the provisions of this Declaration, not in their
individual capacities but solely as trustees, the "Trustees"). The Sponsor and
the Trustees hereby agree as follows:

1.       The trust created hereby (the "Trust") shall be known as Kellogg
         Company Capital Trust II, in which name the Trustee, or the Sponsor to
         the extent provided herein, may conduct the business of the Trust, make
         and execute contracts, and sue and be sued.

2.       The address of the principal office of the Trust is c/o Kellogg
         Company, General Counsel, One Kellogg Square, P.O. Box 3599, Battle
         Creek, Michigan 49016-3599 USA. At any time, the Trustee may designate
         another principal office.

3.       The Sponsor hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the
         Trustee the sum of $10. The Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt of such
         amount in trust from the Sponsor, which amount shall constitute the
         initial trust estate. The Trustee hereby declares that it will hold the
         trust estate in trust for the Sponsor. It is the intention of the
         parties hereto that the Trust created hereby constitute a business
         trust under Chapter 38 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code, 12 Del. C.
         Section 3801 et seq. (the "Business Trust Act"), and that this document
         constitutes the governing instrument of the Trust. The Trustee is
         hereby authorized and directed to execute and file a certificate of
         trust for the Trust in accordance with the provisions of the Business
         Trust Act in such form as the Trustee may approve.

4.       The Sponsor and the Trustee will enter into an amended and restated
         Declaration of Trust satisfactory to each party to provide for the
         contemplated operation of the Trust created hereby and the issuance of
         the preferred securities and common securities referred to therein.
         Prior to the execution and delivery of such amended and restated
         Declaration of Trust, the Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation
         hereunder or with respect to the trust estate, except as otherwise
         required by applicable law or as may be necessary to obtain prior to
         such execution and delivery of any licenses, consents or approvals
         required by applicable law or otherwise.

5.       The Sponsor is hereby authorized, in its sole discretion (i) to file
         with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and
         execute, in each case on behalf of the Trust, (a) the Registration
         Statement on Form S-3 (the "1933 Act Registration Statement"),
         including any pre-effective or post-effective amendments to such 1933
         Act Registration Statement (including the prospectus and the exhibits
         contained therein), relating to the registration under the Securities
         Act of 1933, as amended, of the preferred securities of the Trust and
         certain other securities and (b) a Registration Statement on Form 8-A
         (the "1934 Act Registration Statement") (including any pre-effective
         and post-effective amendments thereto) relating to the registration of
         the preferred securities of the Trust under Section 12(b) of the

         then the Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to join in any such
         filing and to execute on behalf of the Trust any and all of the
         foregoing, it being understood that The Bank of New York (Delaware), in
         its capacity as trustee of the Trust, shall not be required to join in

         unless required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, the

         attorneys-in-fact and agents full power and authority to do and perform
         each and every act and thing requisite and necessary to be done in

         Sponsor might or could do in person, hereby ratifying and confirming
         all that said attorneys-in-fact and agents or any of them, or their
         respective substitute or substitutes, shall do or cause to be done by
         virtue hereof.

         signature of the Trustee to one of such counterpart signature pages.
         All of such counterpart signature pages shall be read as though one,
         and they shall have the same force and effect as though all of the
         signers had signed a single signature page.

7.       The number of Trustees initially shall be one (1) and thereafter the
         number of Trustees shall be such number as shall be fixed from time to
         time by a written instrument signed by the Sponsor which may increase
         or decrease the number of Trustees; provided, however, that to the
         extent required by the Business Trust Act, one Trustee shall either be
         a natural person who is a resident of the State of Delaware or, if not
