Event of Default in respect of the Capital Securities and its consequences, provided
that, if the underlying Event of Default under the Indenture:


(i)            is
not waivable under the Indenture, the Event of Default under the Declaration
shall not be waivable; or


(ii)           requires
the consent or vote of greater than a majority in principal amount of the
holders of the Notes (a "Super Majority") to be waived under the Indenture, the
Event of Default under the Declaration may only be waived by the vote of the

amount of the Notes outstanding.


The foregoing provisions of this Section
2.6(a) shall be in lieu of Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act
and such Section 316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act is hereby
expressly excluded from this Declaration and the Securities, as permitted by
the Trust Indenture Act.  Upon such waiver, any such default shall cease to
exist, and any Event of Default with respect to the Capital Securities arising
therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this
Declaration, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default
or an Event of Default with respect to the Capital Securities or impair any
right consequent thereon.  Any waiver by the Holders of the Capital Securities
of an Event of Default with respect to the Capital Securities also shall be
deemed to constitute a waiver by the Holders of the Common Securities of any
such Event of Default with respect to the Common Securities for all purposes of
this Declaration without any further act, vote or consent of the Holders of the

 any past
Event of Default with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences, provided
that, if the underlying Event of Default under the Indenture:


(i)            is
not waivable under the Indenture, except where the Holders of the Common
Securities are deemed to have waived such Event of Default under the
Declaration as provided below in this Section 2.6(b), the Event of Default
under the Declaration shall also not be waivable; or


(ii)           requires
the consent or vote of the holders of a Super Majority of the Notes to be
waived under the Indenture, except where the Holders of the Common Securities
are deemed to have waived such Event of Default under the Declaration as
provided below in this Section 2.6(b), the Event of Default under the
Declaration only may be waived by the vote of the Holders of at least the
proportion in liquidation amount of the Common Securities that the relevant
Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
outstanding;


provided further, each Holder of Common
Securities will be deemed to have waived any such Event of Default and all
Events of Default with respect to the Common Securities and its consequences
until all Events of Default with respect to the Capital Securities have been
cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, and until such Events of Default with
respect to the Capital Securities have been so cured, waived or otherwise
eliminated, the Property Trustee will be deemed to be acting solely on behalf
of the Holders of the Capital Securities and only the Holders of the Capital
Securities will have the right to direct the Property Trustee in accordance
with the terms of the Securities.  The foregoing provisions of this Section
2.6(b) shall be in lieu of Sections 316(a)(1)(A) and 316(a)(1)(B) of the
Trust Indenture Act and such Sections 316(a)(1)(A) and 316(a)(1)(B) of the
Trust Indenture Act are hereby expressly excluded from this Declaration and the
Securities, as permitted by the Trust Indenture Act.  Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.6(b), upon such waiver by the Holders of the
Common Securities, any such default shall cease to exist and any Event of
Default with respect to the Common Securities arising therefrom shall be deemed
to have been cured for every purpose of this Declaration, but no such waiver
shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default with
respect to the Common Securities or impair any right consequent thereon.


(c)           A
waiver of an Event of Default under the Indenture by the Property Trustee at
the direction of the Holders of the Capital Securities constitutes a waiver of
the corresponding Event of Default under this Declaration.  The foregoing
provisions of this Section 2.6(c) shall be in lieu of Section 
316(a)(1)(B) of the Trust Indenture Act and such Section 316(a)(1)(B) of
the Trust Indenture Act is hereby expressly excluded from this Declaration and
the Securities, as permitted by the Trust Indenture Act.


SECTION 2.7 Event of Default or Nonpayment Notice. 



(a)           The
Property Trustee shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of an Event of
Default or a nonpayment of principal, premium, if any, or interest, when due,

exercise any right to rescind or annul any declaration that the principal of
all the Notes shall be due and payable, or (D) consent to any amendment,
modification or termination of the Indenture or the Notes where such consent shall
be required unless the Trust shall have received an opinion of counsel to the
effect that such modification will not cause more than an insubstantial risk
that for United States federal income tax purposes the Trust will not be
classified as a grantor trust.


SECTION 3.8 Powers and Duties of the Property Trustee. 



(a)           The
legal title to the Notes shall be owned by and held of record in the name of
the Property Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the
Securities.  The right, title and interest of the Property Trustee to the Notes
shall vest automatically in each Person who may hereafter be appointed as
Property Trustee in accordance with Section 5.7.  Such vesting and cessation of
title shall be effective whether or not conveyancing documents with regard to
the Notes have been executed and delivered.


(b)           The
Property Trustee shall not transfer its right, title and interest in the Notes
to the Regular Trustees or to the Delaware Trustee (if the Property Trustee
does not also act as Delaware Trustee).


(c)           The
Property Trustee shall:


(i)            establish
and maintain a segregated non-interest bearing trust account (the "Property
Trustee Account") in the name of and under the exclusive control of the
Property Trustee on behalf of the Holders of the Securities and, upon the
receipt of payments of funds made in respect of the Notes held by the Property
Trustee, deposit such funds into the Property Trustee Account and make

 payments
to the Holders of the Capital Securities and Holders of the Common Securities
from the Property Trustee Account in accordance with Section 6.1.  Funds in the
Property Trustee Account shall be held uninvested until disbursed in accordance
with this Declaration.  The Property Trustee Account shall be an account that
is maintained with a banking institution the rating of whose long-term
unsecured indebtedness is at least equal to the rating assigned to the Capital
Securities by a "nationally recognized statistical rating organization," as
that term is defined for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under the Securities Act;


(ii)           engage
in such ministerial activities as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect
the redemption of the Capital Securities and the Common Securities to the
extent the Notes are prepaid or mature; and


(iii)          upon
written notice of distribution issued by the Regular Trustees in accordance
with the terms of the Securities, engage in such ministerial activities as
shall be necessary or appropriate to effect the distribution of the Notes to
Holders of Securities upon the occurrence of a Special Event or other specified
circumstances pursuant to the terms of the Securities.


(d)           The
Property Trustee shall take all actions and perform such duties as may be
specifically required of the Property Trustee pursuant to the terms of the
Securities.


(e)           The
Property Trustee shall take any Legal Action which arises out of or in
connection with an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the
Property Trustee has actual knowledge or the Property Trustee's duties and
obligations under this Declaration or the Trust Indenture Act; provided
however, that if a Nonpayment has occurred and is continuing, a Holder of
Capital Securities may institute directly a proceeding for enforcement of
payment to such Holder of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the
Notes having a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of
the Capital Securities of such Holder (a "Direct Action") after the respective
due date specified in the Notes.  In connection with such Direct Action, the
rights of the Holders of the Common Securities will be subrogated to the rights
of such Holder of Capital Securities to the extent of any payment made by the
Note Issuer to such Holder of Capital Securities in such Direct Action.


(f)            The
Property Trustee shall not resign as a Trustee unless either:


(i)            the
Trust has been completely liquidated and the
proceeds of the liquidation distributed to the Holders of Securities pursuant
to the terms of the Securities; or


(ii)           a
Successor Property Trustee has been appointed and
has accepted that appointment in accordance with Section 5.7.


(g)           The
Property Trustee shall have the legal power to exercise all of the rights,
powers and privileges of a holder of Notes under the Indenture and, if an Event
of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee
occurs and is





                                                                                        
17






 continuing, the Property Trustee shall, for the benefit of
Holders of the Securities, enforce its rights as holder of the Notes subject to
the rights of the Holders pursuant to the terms of such Securities.


(h)           The
Property Trustee may authorize one or more Paying Agents to pay Distributions,
redemption payments or liquidation payments on behalf of the Trust with respect
to all Securities and any such Paying Agent shall comply with
Section 317(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.  Any Paying Agent may be
removed by the Property Trustee at any time and a successor Paying Agent or
additional Paying Agents may be appointed at any time by the Property Trustee.


(i)            Subject
to this Section 3.8, the Property Trustee shall have none of the duties,
liabilities, powers or the authority of the Regular Trustees set forth in
Section 3.6.


The Property
Trustee must exercise the powers set forth in this Section 3.8 in a manner that
is consistent with the purposes and functions of the Trust set out in Section
3.3, and the Property Trustee shall not take any action that is inconsistent
with the purposes and functions of the Trust set out in Section 3.3.


SECTION 3.9 Certain Duties and Responsibilities of
the Property Trustee.

Property Trustee, before the occurrence of any Event of Default and after the
curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to

no implied covenants shall be read into this Declaration against the Property
Trustee.  In case an Event of Default has occurred (that has not been cured or
waived pursuant to Section 2.6) of which a Responsible Officer of the Property
Trustee has actual knowledge, the Property Trustee shall exercise such of the
rights and powers vested in it by this Declaration, and use the same degree of
care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use
under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.


(b)           No
provision of this Declaration shall be construed to relieve the Property
Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure
to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:


(i)           
prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiving
of all such Events of Default that may have occurred:


(A)    the
duties and obligations of the Property Trustee shall be determined solely by
the express provisions of this Declaration and the Property Trustee shall not
be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are
specifically set forth in this Declaration, and no implied covenants or
obligations shall be read into this Declaration against the Property Trustee; and


(B)    in the
absence of bad faith on the part of the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee
may conclusively rely, as to the truth of





                                                              
18






 the statements and the correctness of
the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to
the Property Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Declaration;

hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Property Trustee, the
Property Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether
or not they conform to the requirements of this Declaration;


(ii)           the
Property Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good
faith by a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee, unless it shall be
proved that the Property Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent
facts;

Property Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or
omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the

relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Property Trustee, or exercising any trust or power
conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Declaration;


(iv)          no
provision of this Declaration shall require the Property Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the
performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of
such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this
Declaration or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Property Trustee against
such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it;


(v)           the
Property Trustee's sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
physical preservation of the Notes and the Property Trustee Account shall be to
deal with such property in a similar manner as the Property Trustee deals with
similar property for its own account, subject to the protections and
limitations on liability afforded to the Property Trustee under this
Declaration and the Trust Indenture Act;


(vi)          the
Property Trustee shall have no duty or liability for or with respect to the
value, genuineness, existence or sufficiency of the Notes or the payment of any
taxes or assessments levied thereon or in connection therewith;


(vii)         the
Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by
it except as it may otherwise agree in writing with the Sponsor.  Money held by
the Property Trustee need not be segregated from other funds held by it except
in relation to the Property Trustee Account maintained by the Property Trustee
pursuant to Section 3.8(c)(i) and except to the extent otherwise required by
law; and



                                                                                   
19






 


(viii)         the
Property Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring the compliance by the
Regular Trustees or the Sponsor with their respective duties under this Declaration,
nor shall the Property Trustee be liable for any default or misconduct of the
Regular Trustees or the Sponsor.

either:


(A)    expressly
assumes all of the obligations of the Trust under the Securities; or

upon notification of issuance, on any national or international securities

(iv)       such
merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement does not cause the Capital
Securities (including any Successor Securities of the Capital Securities) to be
downgraded by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization;


(v)        such
merger, consolidation, amalgamation or replacement does not adversely affect
the rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the  Securities

entity as a result of such merger, consolidation or replacement);

100% in liquidation amount of the Securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge
with or into, or be replaced by any other entity or permit any other entity to
consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or replace it if such

States federal income tax purposes.

accordance with Section 5.7, the Regular Trustees in office, regardless of
their number, shall have all the powers granted to the Regular Trustees and
shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the Regular Trustees by this
Declaration.


SECTION 5.10     Meetings.

meeting.  Notice of any telephonic meetings of the Regular Trustees or any
committee thereof shall be hand delivered or otherwise delivered in writing
(including by facsimile, with a hard copy by overnight courier) not less than
24 hours before a meeting.  Notices shall contain a brief statement of the
time, place and anticipated purposes of the meeting.  The presence (whether in
person or by telephone) of a Regular Trustee at a meeting shall constitute a
waiver of notice of such meeting except where a Regular Trustee attends a
meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any activity
on the ground that the meeting has not been lawfully called or convened. 
Unless provided otherwise in this Declaration, any action of the Regular
Trustees may be taken at a meeting by vote of a majority of the Regular
Trustees present (whether in person or by telephone) and eligible to vote with
respect to such matter, provided that a Quorum is present, or
without a meeting by the unanimous written consent of the Regular Trustees.

to the extent such delegation is not prohibited by applicable law or contrary
to the provisions of the Trust, as set forth herein.


SECTION 5.12     Merger, Conversion, Consolidation,
Amalgamation or Succession to Business.  


Any Person
into which the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be,
may be merged or converted or with which either may be consolidated, or any

which the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, shall
be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate
trust business of the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may
be, shall be the successor of the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as

which shall have such terms as are set forth in a completed Designation of
Terms in the form attached hereto as Annex I, in the amounts, at the times and
with such additions, deletions, modifications and completions as may be
approved by the Regular Trustees (the "Designation of Terms"), and one class of
Common Securities representing undivided beneficial interests in the assets of

Trustee.  In case any Regular Trustee of the Trust who shall have signed any of
the Certificates shall cease to be such Regular Trustee before the Certificates
so signed shall be delivered by the Trust, such Certificates nevertheless may
be delivered as though the person who signed such Certificates had not ceased
to be such Regular Trustee.  Any Certificate may be signed on behalf of the
Trust by such persons who, at the actual date of execution of such Security,
shall be the Regular Trustees of the Trust, although at the date of the
execution and delivery of the Declaration any such person was not such a
Regular Trustee.  Certificates shall be typed, printed, lithographed or
engraved or may be produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to
the Regular Trustees, as evidenced by their execution thereof, and may have
such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such
legends or endorsements as the Regular Trustees may deem appropriate, or as may
be required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation of any stock
exchange on which Securities may be listed, or to conform to usage.

issuance of the Securities as provided in this Declaration, the Securities so
issued shall be deemed to be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.


(g)           Every
Person, by virtue of having become a Holder or a Capital Security Beneficial
Owner in accordance with the terms of this Declaration, shall be deemed to





                                                                                           
31






 have
expressly assented and agreed to the terms of, and shall be bound by, this
Declaration, including the Designation of Terms.


(h)           The Securities are not, and

of or guaranteed by any banking affiliate of the Note Issuer and are not
insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental
agency.

other locations as it shall determine and shall make such appointment in any
other location required by law or the rules of any securities exchange on which
the Capital Securities may be listed.  The term "Paying Agent" includes any
additional paying agent.  The Trust may change any Paying Agent without prior

TRANSFER OF INTERESTS


SECTION 9.1 Transfer of Securities.  


(a)           Securities
may only be transferred, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms and
conditions set forth in this Declaration and in the terms of the Securities. 
Any transfer or purported transfer of any Security not made in accordance with
this Declaration shall be null and void.


(b)           Subject
to this Article 9 and Section 4.3, the Sponsor and any Related Party may only
transfer Common Securities to the Sponsor or a Related Party of the Sponsor; provided
that any such transfer is subject to the condition precedent that the
transferor obtain the written opinion of a nationally recognized independent
counsel experienced in such matters that such transfer would not cause more
than an insubstantial risk that:


(i)         the Trust would not be
classified for United States federal income tax purposes as an association or a
publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation; and


(ii)        the Trust would be an
Investment Company or the transferee would become an Investment Company.


SECTION 9.2 Transfer of Certificates.  


The Regular
Trustees shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers of
Certificates, which will be effected without charge but only upon payment (with

for registration of transfer of any Certificate, the Regular Trustees shall
cause one or more new Certificates to be issued in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees.  Every Certificate surrendered for registration of
transfer shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Regular Trustees duly executed by the Holder or such Holder's
attorney duly authorized in writing.  Each

 Certificate surrendered for
registration of transfer shall be canceled by the Regular Trustees.  A

Certificate.  By acceptance of a Certificate, each transferee shall be deemed
to have agreed to be bound by this Declaration.


SECTION 9.3 Deemed Security Holders.  


The Trustees
may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate shall be registered on the
books and records of the Trust as the sole holder of such Certificate and of
the Securities represented by such Certificate for purposes of receiving
Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever and, accordingly, shall not
be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such
Certificate or in the Securities represented by such Certificate on the part of
any Person, whether or not the Trust shall have actual or other notice thereof.


SECTION 9.4 Book-Entry Interests.  


Unless
otherwise specified in the terms of the Capital Securities, the Capital
Securities Certificates, on original issuance, will be issued in the form of
one or more fully registered, global Capital Security Certificates, to be

Security"), by, or on behalf of, the Trust.  Such Global Securities shall
initially be registered on the books and records of the Trust in the name of
Cede & Co., the nominee of the Depositary, and no Capital Security
Beneficial Owner will receive a definitive Capital Security Certificate
representing such Capital Security Beneficial Owner's interests in such Global
Securities, except as provided in Section 9.7.  Unless and until definitive,
fully registered Capital Security Certificates (the "Definitive Capital
Security Certificates") have been issued to the Capital Security Beneficial
Owners pursuant to Section 9.7:


(a)           the
provisions of this Section 9.4 shall be in full force and effect;


(b)           the
Trust and the Trustees shall be entitled to deal with the Clearing Agency for
all purposes of this Declaration (including the payment of Distributions on the
Global Securities and receiving approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the
sole Holder of the Capital Securities and shall have no obligation to the
Capital Security Beneficial Owners;


(c)           to
the extent that the provisions of this Section 9.4 conflict with any other
provisions of this Declaration, the provisions of this Section 9.4 shall
control; and


(d)           the
rights of the Capital Security Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only
through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law
and agreements between such Capital Security Beneficial Owners and the Clearing
Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants.  The Depositary will make
Book-Entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and
transmit payments of Distributions on the Global Securities to such Clearing
Agency Participants.

SECTION 9.5 Notices to Clearing Agency.  


Whenever a
notice or other communication to the Capital Security Holders is required under
this Declaration, unless and until Definitive Capital Security Certificates
shall have been issued to the Capital Security Beneficial Owners pursuant to
Section 9.7, the Regular Trustees shall give all such notices and
communications specified herein to be given to the Capital Security Holders to
the Clearing Agency, and shall have no notice obligations to the Capital Security
Beneficial Owners.


SECTION 9.6 Appointment of Successor Clearing Agency. 



If any
Clearing Agency elects to discontinue its services as securities depositary
with respect to the Capital Securities, the Regular Trustees may, in their sole
discretion, appoint a successor Clearing Agency with respect to such Capital
Securities.


SECTION 9.7 Definitive Capital Security Certificates. 



If:


(a)           a
Clearing Agency elects to discontinue its services as securities depositary
with respect to the Capital Securities and a successor Clearing Agency is not
appointed within 90 days after such discontinuance pursuant to Section 9.6; or


(b)           the
Regular Trustees elect after consultation with the Sponsor to terminate the
Book-Entry system through the Clearing Agency with respect to the Capital
Securities;


then:


(c)           Definitive
Capital Security Certificates shall be prepared by the Regular Trustees on
behalf of the Trust with respect to such Capital Securities; and


(d)           upon
surrender of the Global Securities by the Clearing Agency, accompanied by
registration instructions, the Regular Trustees shall cause Definitive Capital
Security Certificates to be delivered to Capital Security Beneficial Owners in
accordance with the instructions of the Clearing Agency.  Neither the Trustees nor
the Trust shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and
each of them may conclusively rely on and shall be protected in relying on,
said instructions of the Clearing Agency.  The Definitive Capital Security
Certificates shall be typed, printed, lithographed or engraved or may be
produced in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Regular
Trustees, as evidenced by their execution thereof, and may have such letters,
numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends or
endorsements as the Regular Trustees may deem appropriate, or as may be
required to comply with any law or with any rule or regulation made pursuant
thereto or with any rule or regulation of any stock exchange on which Capital
Securities may be listed, or to conform to usage.


Otherwise,
Definitive Capital Security Certificates will not be issued.

SECTION 9.8 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen
Certificates.  


If:


(a)           any
mutilated Certificates should be surrendered to the Regular Trustees, or if the
Regular Trustees shall receive evidence to their satisfaction of the
destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate; and


(b)           there
shall be delivered to the Regular Trustees such security or indemnity as may be
required by them to keep each of them harmless,


then, in the absence of notice
that such Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, any
Regular Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute and deliver, in exchange
for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a
new Certificate of like denomination.  In connection with the issuance of any
new Certificate under this Section 9.8, the Regular Trustees 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 Certificate issued pursuant
to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an ownership interest
in the relevant Securities, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost,
stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

Indenture Act), are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties
and liabilities of such Indemnified Person.


(b)        Unless otherwise expressly provided herein:


(i)            whenever
a conflict of interest exists or arises between any Covered Persons; or


(ii)           whenever
this Declaration or any other agreement contemplated herein or therein provides
that an Indemnified Person shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms
that are, fair and reasonable to the Trust or any Holder of Securities;


the Indemnified Person shall
resolve such conflict of interest, take such action or provide such terms,
considering in each case the relative interest of each party (including its own
interest) to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the
benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted
industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices
or principles.  In the absence of bad faith by the Indemnified Person, the
resolution, action or term so made, taken or provided by the Indemnified Person
shall not constitute a breach of this Declaration or any other agreement
contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of the Indemnified Person at
law or in equity or otherwise.


(c)           Whenever
in this Declaration an Indemnified Person is permitted or required to make a
decision:

(i)            in
its "discretion" or under a grant of similar authority, the Indemnified Person
shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires,
including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any
consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Trust or any other
Person; or               


(ii)           in
its "good faith" or under another express standard, the Indemnified Person
shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or
different standard imposed by this Declaration or by applicable law.


SECTION 10.4     Indemnification.  


(a)    (i)   The
Note Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company
Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to
any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the
right of the Trust) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Company
Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees and expenses),
judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to
the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or
proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  The
termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall
not, of itself, create a presumption that the Company Indemnified Person did
not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct
was unlawful.


(ii)           The
Note Issuer shall indemnify, to the full extent permitted by law, any Company
Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to
any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
Trust to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or
was a Company Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys' fees
and expenses) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the
defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the Trust and except that no such indemnification shall be made in respect of
any claim, issue or matter as to which such Company Indemnified Person shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the Trust unless and only to the extent that
the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was
brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of
liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such Court
of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.





                                                                             
38






 


(iii)          To
the extent that a Company Indemnified Person shall be successful on the merits
or otherwise (including dismissal of an action without prejudice or the
settlement of an action without admission of liability) in defense of any action,
suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section
10.4(a), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be
indemnified, to the full extent permitted by law, against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
therewith.


(iv)          Any
indemnification under paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 10.4(a) (unless
ordered by a court) shall be made by the Note Issuer only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Company
Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances because he has met the
applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii).  Such
determination shall be made (1) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a
quorum consisting of such Regular Trustees who were not parties to such action,
suit or proceeding, (2) if such a quorum is not obtainable, or, even if
obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by
independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the Holders of the
Common Securities.


(v)           Expenses
(including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) incurred by a Company
Indemnified Person in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or
investigative action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii)
of this Section 10.4(a) shall be paid by the Note Issuer in advance of the
final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of such Company Indemnified Person to repay such
amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be
indemnified by the Note Issuer as authorized in this Section 10.4(a). 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no advance shall be made by the Note Issuer if a
determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Regular Trustees by a
majority vote of a quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees, (ii) if such a
quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a quorum of disinterested
Regular Trustees so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion
or (iii) the Common Security Holder of the Trust, that, based upon the facts
known to the Regular Trustees, counsel or the Common Security Holder at the
time such determination is made, such Company Indemnified Person acted in bad
faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the Trust, or, with respect to any criminal
proceeding, that such Company Indemnified Person believed or had reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  In no event shall any advance be
made in instances where the Regular Trustees, independent legal counsel or
Common Security Holder reasonably determine that such person deliberately
breached his duty to the Trust or to the Holders of the Common or Capital
Securities.


(vi)          The
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant
to, the other paragraphs of this Section 10.4(a) shall not be deemed exclusive
of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification and advancement of
expenses may be entitled under any agreement, vote of





                                                                              
39






 stockholders or
disinterested directors of the Note Issuer or Capital Security Holders of the
Trust or otherwise, both as to action in his official capacity and as to action
in another capacity while holding such office.  All rights to indemnification
under this Section 10.4(a) shall be deemed to be provided by a contract between
the Note Issuer and each Company Indemnified Person who serves in such capacity
at any time while this Section 10.4(a) is in effect.  Any repeal or
modification of this Section 10.4(a) shall not affect any rights or obligations
then existing.


(vii)         The
Note Issuer or the Trust may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any
person who is or was a Company Indemnified Person against any liability
asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out
of his status as such, whether or not the Note Issuer would have the power to
indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Section
10.4(a).


(viii)         For
purposes of this Section 10.4(a), references to "the Trust" shall include, in
addition to the resulting or surviving entity, any constituent entity
(including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or
merger, so that any person who is or was a director, trustee, officer or
employee of such constituent entity, or is or was serving at the request of
such constituent entity as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of
another entity, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this
Section 10.4(a) with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he would
have with respect to such constituent entity if its separate existence had
continued.


(ix)          The
indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant
to, this Section 10.4(a) shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or
ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Company Indemnified
Person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and
administrators of such a person.


(b)           The Note Issuer agrees to
indemnify the (i) Property Trustee, (ii) the Delaware Trustee, (iii) any
Affiliate of the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, and (iv) any
officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, employees,
representatives, custodians, nominees or agents of the Property Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee (each of the Persons in (i) through (iv) being referred to as
a "Fiduciary Indemnified Person") for, and to hold each Fiduciary Indemnified
Person harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense
including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of such Fiduciary
Indemnified Person) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part,
arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the
trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including
reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against or
investigating any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or
performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.  The obligation to
indemnify as set forth in this Section 10.4(b) shall survive the satisfaction
and discharge of this Declaration.

SECTION 10.5   Outside Businesses.  


Any Covered Person,
the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee may engage in or
possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description,
independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the
Trust, and the Trust and the Holders of Securities shall have no rights by
virtue of this Declaration in and to such independent ventures or the income or
profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if
competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or
improper.  No Covered Person, the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee, or the
Property Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment or
other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that,
if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and any Covered Person,
the Sponsor, the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee shall have the right
to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to
recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity.  Any
Covered Person, the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee may engage or be
interested in any financial or other transaction with the Sponsor or any
Affiliate of the Sponsor, or may act as depositary for, trustee or agent for,
or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations
of the Sponsor or its Affiliates.

The fiscal
year ("Fiscal Year") of the Trust shall be the calendar year or such other year
as is required by the Code.


SECTION 11.2     Certain Accounting Matters.


(a)           At
all times during the existence of the Trust, the Regular Trustees shall keep,
or cause to be kept, full books of account, records and supporting documents,
which shall reflect in reasonable detail each transaction of the Trust.  


(b)           The
Regular Trustees shall cause to be duly prepared and delivered to each of the
Holders of Securities any annual United States federal income tax information
statement, required by the Code, containing such information with regard to the
Securities held by each Holder as is required by the Code and the Treasury
Regulations.  The Regular Trustees shall endeavor to deliver all such
statements within such period after the end of each Fiscal Year of the Trust as
required by the Treasury Regulations; and


(c)           The
Regular Trustees shall cause to be duly prepared and filed with the appropriate
taxing authority, an annual United States federal income tax return, on a Form
1041 or such other form required by United States federal income tax law, and
any other annual income tax returns required to be filed by the Regular

shall maintain one or more bank accounts in the name and for the sole benefit
of the Trust; provided, however, that all payments of funds in
respect of the Notes held by the Property Trustee shall be made directly to the

representations and forms as shall reasonably be requested by the Trust to
assist it in determining the extent of, and in fulfilling, its withholding
obligations.  The Regular Trustees shall file required forms with applicable
jurisdictions and, unless an exemption from withholding is properly established
by a Holder, shall remit amounts withheld with respect to the Holder to
applicable jurisdictions.  To the extent that the Trust is required to withhold
and pay over any amounts to any authority with respect to distributions or
allocations to any Holder, the amount withheld shall be deemed to be a
distribution in the amount of the withholding to the Holder.  In the event of
any claim over withholding, the Holders shall be limited to an action against
the applicable jurisdiction.  If the amount required to be withheld was not
withheld from actual Distributions made, the Trust may reduce subsequent
Distributions by the amount of such withholding.

by delivering to the Regular Trustees one or more calls in a writing stating

Securities is permitted or required under this Declaration or the rules of any
stock exchange on which the Capital Securities are listed or admitted for
trading, such vote, consent or approval may be given at a meeting of the
Holders of Securities.  Any action that may be taken at a meeting of the
Holders of Securities may be taken without a meeting if a consent in writing
setting forth the action so taken is signed by the Holders of Securities owning
not less than the minimum amount of Securities in liquidation amount that would
be necessary to

 authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Holders
of Securities having a right to vote thereon were present and voting.  Prompt
notice of the taking of action without a meeting shall be given to the Holders
of Securities entitled to vote who have not consented in writing.  The Regular
Trustees may specify that any written ballot submitted to the Security Holder
for the purpose of taking any action without a meeting shall be returned to the

(ii)           each
Holder of a Security may authorize any Person to act for it by proxy on all
matters in which a Holder of Securities is entitled to participate, including
waiving notice of any meeting, or voting or participating at a meeting.  No
proxy shall be valid after the expiration of 11 months from the date thereof
unless otherwise provided in the proxy.  Every proxy shall be revocable at the
pleasure of the Holder of Securities executing it.  Except as otherwise
provided herein, all matters relating to the giving, voting or validity of

Delaware relating to proxies, and judicial interpretations thereunder, as if
the Trust were a Delaware corporation and the Holders of the Securities were
stockholders of a Delaware corporation;


(iii)          each
meeting of the Holders of the Securities shall be conducted by the Regular
Trustees or by such other Person that the Regular Trustees may designate; and


(iv)          unless
the Statutory Trust Act, this Declaration, the terms of the Securities, the
Trust Indenture Act or the listing rules of any stock exchange on which the
Capital Securities are then listed or trading otherwise provide, the Regular
Trustees, in their sole discretion, shall establish all other provisions
relating to meetings of Holders of Securities, including notice of the time,
place or purpose of any meeting at which any matter is to be voted on by any
Holders of Securities, waiver of any such notice, action by consent without a
meeting, the establishment of a record date, quorum requirements, voting in
person or by proxy or any other matter with respect to the exercise of any such
right to vote.

ANNEX I


BAC
CAPITAL TRUST XI

DESIGNATION
OF TERMS OF

6
5/8% CAPITAL SECURITIES AND

6 5/8% COMMON SECURITIES


Pursuant to
Section 7.1 of the Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, dated as of May 15,
2006 (as amended from time to time, the "Declaration"), the designation,
rights, privileges, restrictions, preferences and other terms and provisions of
the Capital Securities and the Common Securities are set out below (each
capitalized term used but not defined herein has the meaning set forth in the
Declaration);


1.         Designation and Number.


(a)        Capital Securities. The Capital
Securities of the Trust (liquidation amount $1,000 per Capital Security) are
hereby designated for purposes of identification only as "BAC Capital Trust XI 6
5/8% Capital Securities" (the "Capital Securities").  The Trust shall issue 1,000,000
Capital Securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $1,000,000,000.  The
Capital Security Certificates evidencing the Capital Securities shall be
substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to the Declaration, with such changes
and additions thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary
usage, custom or practice or to conform to the rules of any stock exchange on
which the Capital Securities are listed.


(b)        Common Securities. The Common Securities
of the Trust (liquidation amount $1,000 per Security) are hereby designated for
purposes of identification only as "BAC Capital Trust XI 6 5/8% Common
Securities" (the "Common Securities").  The Trust shall issue 31,000 Common
Securities with an aggregate liquidation amount of $31,000,000.  The Common
Security Certificates evidencing the Common Securities shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit A-2 to the Declaration, with such changes and additions
thereto or deletions therefrom as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or
practice.


            2.         Distributions.


(a)        Distributions payable on each Security will be
fixed at a rate per annum of 6 5/8% (the "Coupon Rate") of the stated liquidation
amount of $1,000 per Security, such rate being the interest rate payable on the
Notes to be held by the Property Trustee.  Distributions in arrears for more
than one semi-annual period will bear interest thereon compounded semi-annually
at the Coupon Rate (to the extent permitted by applicable law).  A Distribution
is payable only to the extent that payments are made in respect of the Notes
held by the Property Trustee and to the extent the Property Trustee has funds
available therefor.  The amount of Distributions payable for any period will be
computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30‐day months.  The
amount of Distributions payable for any period shorter than a full distribution
period will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a
360-day year of twelve 30-day





                                                                                               
I-1






 months.  The amount of interest payable for any
full interest period will be computed by dividing the annual rate by two.


(b)        Distributions on the Securities will be
cumulative, will accrue from May 23, 2006 and will be payable semi-annually in
arrears, on May 23 and November 23 of each year, beginning on November 23, 2006,
except as otherwise described below.  The Note Issuer has the right under the
Indenture to defer payments of interest on the Notes by extending the interest
payment period from time to time on the Notes for a period not exceeding 10
consecutive semi-annual periods (each an "Extension Period"), during which
Extension Period no interest shall be due and payable on the Notes, provided
that no Extension Period may extend beyond the Stated Maturity.  As a
consequence of such deferral, Distributions also will be deferred on the
Capital Securities for the same period.  Despite such deferral, semi-annual
Distributions will continue to accrue with interest thereon (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate compounded semi-annually during
any such Extension Period.  Prior to the termination of any such Extension
Period, the Note Issuer may extend further such Extension Period; provided
that such Extension Period together with all such previous and further
extensions thereof may not exceed 10 consecutive semi-annual or extend beyond
the Stated Maturity.  Payments of accrued Distributions will be payable to
Holders as they appear on the books and records of the Trust or the Clearing
Agency, as the case may be, on the first record date after the end of the
Extension Period.  Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment
of all amounts then due, the Note Issuer may commence a new Extension Period,
subject to the above requirements.  No interest shall be due and payable during
an Extension Period, except at the end thereof, but the Note Issuer may repay
at any time all or any portion of the interest accrued during an Extension
Period.


(c)        Distributions on the Securities will be payable
to the Holders thereof as they appear on the books and records of the Trust on
the relevant record dates.  While the Capital Securities remain in Book‐Entry
only form, the relevant record dates shall be one Business Day prior to the
relevant payment dates, which payment dates correspond to the interest payment
dates on the Notes.  Payment of Distributions on the Securities held in
Book-Entry only form will be made to the Depositary in immediately available
funds.  The Depositary's practice is to credit Clearing Agency Participants'
accounts on the relevant payment date in accordance with their respective
holdings shown on the Depositary's records unless the Depositary has reason to
believe that it will not receive payments on such payment date.  Payments by
(i) Clearing Agency Participants and (ii) securities brokers and dealers, banks
and trust companies and other entities that clear transactions through or
maintain a direct or indirect custodial relationship with a Clearing Agency
Participant (an "Indirect Participant") to Capital Security Beneficial Owners
will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be
the responsibility of such Clearing Agency Participants and Indirect
Participants and not of the Depositary, the Trust or the Corporation, subject
to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to
time.  Payment of distributions to the Depositary is the responsibility of the
Trust, disbursement of such payments to Clearing Agency Participants is the
responsibility of the Depositary, and disbursement of such payments to the
Capital Security Beneficial Owners is the responsibility of the Clearing Agency
Participants and Indirect Participants.  The relevant record dates for the
Common Securities shall be the same record date as for the Capital Securities. 
If the Capital Securities shall no longer remain in Book‐Entry only form,
the regular record dates for the Capital Securities shall be the close of
business on the May 1 and November 1 prior to the





                                                                                               
I-2






 relevant payment dates, which
payment dates correspond to the interest payment dates on the Notes. 
Distributions payable on any Securities that are not punctually paid on any
Distribution payment date, as a result of the Note Issuer having failed to make
a payment under the Notes, will cease to be payable to the Person in whose name
such Securities are registered on the relevant record date, and such defaulted
Distribution will instead be payable to the Person in whose name such
Securities are registered on the special record date or other specified date
determined in accordance with the Indenture.  If any date on which
Distributions are payable on the Securities is not a Business Day, then payment
of the Distribution payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding
day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in
respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day is in the next
succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made
on such date.


(d)        In the event that there is any money or other
property held by or for the Trust that is not accounted for hereunder, such
property shall be distributed Pro Rata (as defined herein) among the Holders of
the Securities.


            3.         Liquidation Distribution Upon
Dissolution.


In the event
of any voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding-up or termination of the
Trust, the Holders on the date of the dissolution, winding-up or termination,
as the case may be, will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Trust
available for distribution to Holders after satisfaction of liabilities of
creditors an amount equal to the aggregate of the stated liquidation amount of
$1,000 per Security plus accrued and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date
of payment (such amount being the "Liquidation Distribution"), unless, in
connection with such dissolution, winding‐up or termination, Notes in an
aggregate stated principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation
amount of such Securities, with an interest rate equal to the Coupon Rate of,
and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accrued and
unpaid Distributions on, such Securities, shall be distributed on a Pro Rata
basis to the Holders of the Securities in exchange for such Securities.


If, upon any
such dissolution, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because
the Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate
Liquidation Distribution, then the amounts payable directly by the Trust on the
Securities shall be paid on a Pro Rata basis.  Holders of the Common Securities
will be entitled to receive distributions upon any such dissolution Pro Rata
with Holders of the Capital Securities, except that if an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, the Capital Securities shall have a preference over
the Common Securities with respect to such distributions.


            4.         Redemption and Distribution.


(a)        The Securities are subject to redemption at the
Stated Maturity, prior to the Stated Maturity, in whole or in part, on one or
more occasions, at any time at the election of the Sponsor, or in whole, but
not in part, in certain circumstances, following the occurrence of a Special
Event as follows:





                                                                                               
I-3






 


(i)         Upon payment of the Notes at a
payment price equal to the principal amount of the Notes, plus any accrued and
unpaid interest thereon at the Stated Maturity, the proceeds from such payment
shall be applied simultaneously to redeem the Securities at the Maturity
Redemption Price.


(ii)        In the event of a Special Event
Prepayment, the proceeds from such Special Event Prepayment shall be applied
simultaneously to redeem the Capital Securities at the Special Event Redemption
Price.


(iii)       The Securities also may be
redeemed, in whole or in part, contemporaneously with an optional prepayment of
the Notes at the Optional Prepayment Price.  If fewer than all the outstanding
Securities are to be so redeemed, the Common Securities and the Capital
Securities will be redeemed Pro Rata, and the Capital Securities to be redeemed
will be as described in Section 4(d)(ii) below.


(b)        If the Sponsor has given a notice of its
election to terminate the Trust, the Regular Trustees shall dissolve the Trust
and, after satisfaction of creditors, cause Notes held by the Property Trustee,
having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated liquidation
amount of the Securities, with an interest rate equal to the Coupon Rate of,
and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accrued and
unpaid Distributions on, and having the same record date for payment as, the
Securities, to be distributed to the Holders of the Securities in liquidation
of such Holders' interests in the Securities within 90 days following receipt
of the Sponsor's notice of election.


(c)        On and from the date fixed by the Regular
Trustees for any distribution of Notes and dissolution of the Trust: 
(i) the Securities will no longer be deemed to be outstanding,
(ii) the Depositary or its nominee as the record Holder of the Capital
Securities, will receive a registered Global Security or Securities
representing the Notes to be delivered upon such distribution and any certificates
representing Securities, except for certificates representing Capital
Securities held by the Depositary or its nominee (or any successor Clearing
Agency or its nominee), will be deemed to represent beneficial interests in the
Notes having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate stated
liquidation amount of, with an identical interest rate, and accrued and unpaid
interest equal to accrued and unpaid Distributions on such Securities until
such certificates are presented to the Note Issuer or its agent for transfer or
reissue.  The Trust may not redeem fewer than all the outstanding Securities
unless all accrued and unpaid Distributions have been paid on all Securities
for all semi-annual Distribution periods terminating on or before the date of
redemption.  If the Notes are distributed to holders of the Securities,
pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Note Issuer will use its best
efforts to have the Notes listed on the securities exchange, if any, on which
the Capital Securities were listed immediately prior to the distribution of the
Notes.


(d)        Redemption or Distribution Procedures shall be
as follows:


(i)         A
Redemption/Distribution Notice for the Securities to be redeemed or exchanged
will be given by the Trust by mail to each Holder not fewer than 15 nor more
than 60 days before the redemption date or exchange date which, in the case of
a redemption, will be the date fixed for redemption of the Notes.  For purposes
of the 





                                                                               
I-4






calculation of the redemption date or exchange date and the dates on which
notices are given pursuant to this Section 4(d)(i), a Redemption/ Distribution
Notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first mailed by
first‐class mail, postage prepaid, to Holders of Securities.  Each
Redemption/Distribution Notice shall be addressed to the Holders of Securities
at the address of each such Holder appearing in the books and records of the
Trust.  No defect in the Redemption/Distribution Notice or in the mailing of
either with respect to any Holder shall affect the validity of the redemption
or exchange proceedings with respect to any other Holder.


(ii)        In
the event that fewer than all the outstanding Securities are to be redeemed,
the Securities to be redeemed shall be redeemed Pro Rata from each Holder of
Capital Securities, it being understood that, in respect of Capital Securities
registered in the name of and held of record by the Depositary or its nominee
(or any successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) or any nominee, the
distribution of the redemption proceeds will be made to each Clearing Agency
Participant (or Person on whose behalf such nominee holds such securities) in
accordance with the procedures applied by such agency or nominee.


(iii)       If
Securities are to be redeemed and the Trust gives a Redemption/Distribution
Notice, which notice may only be issued if the Notes are repaid as set out in
this Section 4 (which notice will be irrevocable), then (A) while the Capital
Securities are in Book-Entry only form, with respect to the Capital Securities,
by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, provided that the
Note Issuer has paid the Property Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in
connection with the related prepayment or maturity of the Notes, the Property
Trustee will deposit irrevocably with the Depositary or its nominee (or
successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) funds sufficient to pay the
applicable Redemption Price with respect to the Capital Securities and will
give the Depositary irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption
Price to the Holders of the Capital Securities, and (B) with respect to Capital
Securities issued in definitive form and Common Securities, provided that
the Note Issuer has paid the Property Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in
connection with the related prepayment or maturity of the Notes, the Property
Trustee will pay the relevant Redemption Price to the Holders of such
Securities by check mailed to the address of the relevant Holder appearing on
the books and records of the Trust on the redemption date.  If a
Redemption/Distribution Notice shall have been given and funds deposited as
required, if applicable, then immediately prior to the close of business on the
date of such deposit, or on the redemption date, as applicable, Distributions
will cease to accrue on the Securities so called for redemption and all rights
of Holders of such Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the
right of the Holders of such Securities to receive the Redemption Price, but
without interest on such Redemption Price.  Neither the Regular Trustees nor
the Trust shall be required to register or cause to be registered the transfer
of any Securities that have been so called for redemption.  If any date fixed
for redemption of Securities is not a Business Day, then payment of the
Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day
that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of
any such delay) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar
year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in
each case with the same force and effect as if made on such





                                                                                        
I-5






 date fixed for
redemption.  If payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Securities is
improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Property Trustee or
by the Sponsor as guarantor pursuant to the relevant Securities Guarantee,
Distributions on such Securities will continue to accrue from the original
redemption date to the actual date of payment, in which case the actual payment
date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of
calculating the Redemption Price.


(iv)       Redemption/Distribution
Notices shall be sent by the Regular Trustees on behalf of the Trust to (A) in
respect of the Capital Securities, the Depositary or its nominee (or any
successor Clearing Agency or its nominee) if the Global Securities have been
issued or, if Definitive Capital Security Certificates have been issued, to the
Holder thereof, and (B) in respect of the Common Securities to the Holder
thereof.


(v)        Subject
to the foregoing and applicable law (including, without limitation, United
States federal securities laws), provided the acquiror is not the Holder of the
Common Securities or the obligor under the Indenture, the Sponsor or any of its
subsidiaries may at any time and from time to time purchase outstanding Capital
Securities by tender, in the open market or by private agreement.


5.         Voting Rights - Capital
Securities.


(a)        Except as provided under Sections 5(b) and 7 of
this Designation of Terms and as otherwise required by law and the Declaration,
the Holders of the Capital Securities will have no voting rights.


(b)        Subject to the requirements set forth in this
paragraph, the Holders of a Majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the
Capital Securities, voting separately as a class may direct the time, method,
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Property Trustee
under the Declaration, including the right to direct the Property Trustee, as
holder of the Notes, to (i) exercise the remedies available under the
Indenture by conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Note
Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Note Trustee with
respect to the Notes, (ii) waive any past Event of Default and its consequences
that is waivable under Section 5.01 of the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right
to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Notes shall be
due and payable or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination
of the Indenture as a holder of the Notes provided, however,
that, where a consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent
or act of the Holders of a Super Majority affected thereby the Property Trustee
may only give such consent or take such action at the written direction of the
Holders of at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Capital
Securities which the relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate
principal amount of the Notes outstanding.  The Property Trustee shall not
revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of
the Capital Securities.  Other than with respect to directing the time, method
and place of conducting any remedy available to the Property Trustee or the
Note Trustee as set forth above, the Property Trustee shall not take any action
in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Capital Securities
under this paragraph unless the Property Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax
counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States federal income tax
the Trust will not





                                                                                             
I-6






 be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of
such action.  If a Nonpayment occurs on the date such interest or principal is
otherwise payable (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), and
such Nonpayment is continuing, a Holder of Capital Securities may institute a
Direct Action after the respective due date specified in the Notes.  In
connection with such Direct Action, the rights of the Holders of the Common
Securities will be subrogated to the rights of such Holder of Capital
Securities to the extent of any payment made by the Note Issuer to such Holder
of Capital Securities in such Direct Action.  If the Property Trustee fails to
enforce its rights under the Declaration, any Holder of Capital Securities may,
to the extent permitted by applicable law, institute a legal proceeding
directly against any Person to enforce the Property Trustee's rights under the
Declaration, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Property
Trustee or any other Person.


Except as
provided in this Section, the Holders of Capital Securities will not be able to
exercise directly any other remedy available to the holders of the Notes.


Any approval
or direction of Holders of Capital Securities may be given at a separate
meeting of Holders of Capital Securities convened for such purpose, at a
meeting of all of the Holders of Securities or pursuant to written consent. 
The Regular Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of
Capital Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by
written consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of
record of Capital Securities.  Each such notice will include a statement
setting forth (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is
to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such
meeting on which such Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which
written consent is sought, and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies
or consents.


No vote or
consent of the Holders of the Capital Securities will be required for the Trust
to redeem and cancel Capital Securities or to distribute the Notes in
accordance with the Declaration and the terms of the Securities.


Notwithstanding
that Holders of Capital Securities are entitled to vote or consent under any of
the circumstances described above, any of the Capital Securities that are owned
by the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor shall not be entitled to vote or
consent and shall, for purposes of such vote or consent, be treated as if they
were not outstanding.


            6.         Voting Rights - Common
Securities.


(a)        Except as provided under Sections 6(b) and (c),
7(a) and (b) and 8 of this Designation of Terms or as otherwise required by law
and the Declaration, the Holders of the Common Securities will have no voting
rights.


(b)        The Holders of the Common Securities are
entitled, in accordance with Article 5 of the Declaration, to vote to appoint,
remove or replace any Trustee or to increase or decrease the number of
Trustees.


(c)        Subject to Section 2.6 of the Declaration and

 liquidation amount of the Common Securities, voting separately as a class, may
direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to the Property Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Property Trustee under the Declaration, including (i) directing the
time, method, place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to
the Note Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Note
Trustee with respect to the Notes, (ii) waive any past default and its
consequences that is waivable under Section 5.01 of the Indenture or (iii)
exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all
the Notes shall be due and payable, provided that, where a
consent or action under the Indenture would require the consent or act of the
Holders of a Super Majority, the Property Trustee only may give such consent or
take such action at the written direction of the Holders of at least the
proportion in liquidation amount of the Common Securities which the relevant Super
Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
outstanding.  Pursuant to this Section 6(c), the Property Trustee shall not
revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of
the Capital Securities.  Other than with respect to directing the time, method
and place of conducting any remedy available to the Property Trustee or the
Note Trustee as set forth above, the Property Trustee shall not take any action
in accordance with the directions of the Holders of the Common Securities under
this paragraph unless the Property Trustee has obtained an opinion of tax
counsel to the effect that for purposes of United States federal income tax the
Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor trust on account of such
action.  If the Property Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the
Declaration, any Holder of Common Securities may, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, institute a legal proceeding directly against any Person to
enforce the Property Trustee's rights under the Declaration, without first
instituting a legal proceeding against the Property Trustee or any other
Person.


Any approval
or direction of Holders of Common Securities may be given at a separate meeting
of Holders of Common Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all
of the Holders in the Trust or pursuant to written consent.  The Regular
Trustees will cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of Common
Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action by written
consent of such Holders is to be taken, to be mailed to each Holder of record
of Common Securities.  Each such notice will include a statement setting forth
(i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken,
(ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting
on which such Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written
consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or
consents.


No vote or
consent of the Holders of the Common Securities will be required for the Trust
to redeem and cancel Common Securities or to distribute the Notes in accordance
with the Declaration and the terms of the Securities.


            7.         Amendments to Declaration and
Indenture.


(a)        In addition to any requirements under Section
12.1 of the Declaration, if any proposed amendment to the Declaration provides
for, or the Regular Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that
would adversely affect the powers, preferences or special rights of the
Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Declaration or otherwise, or
(ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, other than as
described in Section 8.1 of the





                                                                                          
I-8






 Declaration, then the Holders of outstanding
Securities voting together as a single class, will be entitled to vote on such
amendment or proposal (but not on any other amendment or proposal) and such
amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of the
Holders of at least a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities,
affected thereby, provided, however, if any amendment or proposal referred to
in clause (i) above would adversely affect only the Capital Securities or only
the Common Securities, then only the affected class will be entitled to vote on
such amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be
effective except with the approval of a Majority in liquidation amount of such
class of Securities.


(b)        In the event the consent of the Property
Trustee as the holder of the Notes is required under the Indenture with respect
to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Notes,
the Property Trustee shall request the written direction of the Holders of the
Securities with respect to such amendment, modification or termination and
shall vote with respect to such amendment, modification or termination as
directed by a Majority in liquidation amount of the Securities voting together
as a single class; provided, however, that where a consent under
the Indenture would require the consent of the holders of a Super Majority, the
Property Trustee may only give such consent at the direction of the Holders of
at least the proportion in liquidation amount of the Securities which the
relevant Super Majority represents of the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes outstanding; provided further, that the Property Trustee
shall not take any action in accordance with the directions of the Holders of
the Securities under this Section 7(b) unless the Property Trustee has obtained
an opinion of tax counsel to the effect that for the purposes of United States
federal income tax the Trust will not be classified as other than a grantor
trust on account of such action.


            8.         Pro Rata.


A reference in
these terms of the Securities to any payment, distribution or treatment as
being "Pro Rata" shall mean pro rata to each Holder according to the aggregate
liquidation amount of the Securities held by the relevant Holder in relation to
the aggregate liquidation amount of all Securities outstanding unless, in
relation to a payment, an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in
which case any funds available to make such payment shall be paid first to each
Holder of the Capital Securities pro rata according to the aggregate liquidation
amount of Capital Securities held by the relevant Holder relative to the
aggregate liquidation amount of all Capital Securities outstanding, and, only
after satisfaction of all amounts owed to the Holders of the Capital
Securities, to each Holder of Common Securities pro rata according to the
aggregate liquidation amount of Common Securities held by the relevant Holder
relative to the aggregate liquidation amount of all Common Securities
outstanding.


            9.         Ranking.


The Capital
Securities rank pari passu and payment thereon shall be made pro
rata with the Common Securities except that, where an Event of Default occurs
and is continuing, the rights of Holders of the Common Securities to payment in
respect of Distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and
otherwise are subordinated to the rights to payment of the Holders of the
Capital Securities.

            10.       Listing.


Unless
otherwise determined by the Regular Trustees, the Capital Securities shall not
be listed for quotation on any stock exchange.


11.       Acceptance of Securities Guarantee and
Indenture.


Each Holder of
Capital Securities and Common Securities, by the acceptance thereof, agrees to
the provisions of the Capital Securities Guarantee and the Common Securities
Guarantee, respectively, including the subordination provisions therein and to
the provisions of the Indenture.


            12.       No Preemptive Rights.


The Holders of
the Securities shall have no preemptive rights to subscribe for any additional
securities.


13.       Miscellaneous.


These terms
constitute a part of the Declaration.


The Sponsor
will provide a copy of the Declaration and the Capital Securities Guarantee or
the Common Securities Guarantee (as may be appropriate), and the Indenture to a
Holder without charge on written request to the Sponsor at its principal place
of business.

[FORM

Distributions
payable on each Capital Security will be fixed at a rate per annum of 6 5/8% (the
"Coupon Rate") of the stated liquidation amount of $1,000 per Capital Security,
such rate being the rate of interest payable on the Notes to be held by the
Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust.  Distributions in arrears for more
than one semi-annual period will bear interest thereon (to the extent permitted
by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate, compounded semi-annually.  A
Distribution is payable only to the extent that payments are made in respect of
the Notes held by the Property Trustee and to the extent the Property Trustee
has funds available therefor.  The amount of Distributions payable for any
period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30‐day
months.


Except as
otherwise described below, Distributions on the Capital Securities will be
cumulative, will accrue from the date of original issuance and will be payable semi-annually
in arrears on May 23 and November 23 of each year, beginning on November 23, 2006,
to the person in whose name the Capital Security is registered at the close of
business on the regular record date for such installment, which shall be the
close of business on the Business Day next preceding such payment date - [IF
PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THE DECLARATION, THE SECURITIES ARE NO LONGER
REPRESENTED BY A GLOBAL SECURITY - which shall be the close of business on May
1 and November 1 prior to the relevant payment date.]  The Note Issuer has the
right under the Indenture to defer payments of interest by extending the
interest payment period from time to time on the Notes for a period not
exceeding 10 consecutive semi-annual periods (each an "Extension Period"), provided
that no Extension Period shall last beyond the date of the maturity of
the Notes.  As a consequence of such deferral, Distributions will also be
deferred hereunder for the same period.  Despite such deferral, semi-annual
Distributions will continue to accrue with interest thereon (to the extent
permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate compounded semi-annually during
any such Extension Period. Prior to the termination of any such Extension
Period, the Note Issuer may further extend such Extension Period; provided
that such Extension Period together with all such previous and further
extensions thereof may not exceed 10 consecutive semi-annual periods or extend
beyond the maturity date of the Notes.  Payments of accrued Distributions will
be payable to Holders as they appear on the books and records of the Trust on
the first record date after the end of the Extension Period.  Upon the
termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all amounts then due,
the Note Issuer may commence a new Extension Period, subject to the above
requirements.


THE CAPITAL
SECURITIES SHALL BE REDEEMABLE AS PROVIDED IN THE DECLARATION.

Distributions
payable on each Common Security will be fixed at a rate per annum of 6 5/8% (the
"Coupon Rate") of the stated liquidation amount of $1,000 per Common Security,
such rate being the rate of interest payable on the Notes to be held by the
Property Trustee.  Distributions in arrears will continue to accumulate at the
same rate compounded semi-annually.  A Distribution is payable only to the
extent that payments are made in respect of the Notes held by the Property
Trustee and to the extent the Property Trustee has funds available therefor. 
The amount of Distributions payable for any period will be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30‐day months.


Except as
otherwise described below, Distributions on the Common Securities will be
cumulative, will accrue from the date of original issuance and will be payable semi-annually
in arrears on May 23 and November 23 of each year, beginning on November 23,
2006, to Holders of record 15 days prior to such payment dates, which payment
dates shall correspond to the interest payment dates on the Notes.  The Note
Issuer has the right under the Indenture to defer payments of interest by
extending the interest payment period from time to time on the Notes for a
period not exceeding 10 consecutive semi-annual periods (each an "Extension
Period"), provided that no Extension Period shall last beyond the
date of the maturity of the Notes.  As a consequence of such deferral,
Distributions will also be deferred hereunder for the same period.  Despite
such deferral, semi-annual Distributions will continue to accrue with interest
thereon (to the extent permitted by applicable law) at the Coupon Rate
compounded semi-annually during any such Extension Period. Prior to the
termination of any such Extension Period, the Note Issuer may further extend
such Extension Period; provided that such Extension Period
together with all such previous and further extensions thereof may not exceed 10
consecutive semi-annual periods or extend beyond the maturity date of the
Notes.  Payments of accrued Distributions will be payable to Holders as they
appear on the books and records of the Trust on the first record date after the
end of the Extension Period.  Upon the termination of any Extension Period and
the payment of all amounts then due, the Note Issuer may commence a new
Extension Period, subject to the above requirements.
