Junior Subordinated Debentures will be treated as indebtedness of the Depositor for United States Federal income tax purposes. In this connection, the Property Trustee and the Holders of Common Securities are authorized to take any action, not
inconsistent with applicable law, the Certificate of Trust or this Trust Agreement, that the Property Trustee and Holders of Common Securities determine in their discretion to be necessary or desirable for such purposes, as long as such action does
not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities. In no event shall the Administrators or the Issuer Trustees be liable to the Issuer Trust or the Holders for any failure to comply
with this Section that results from a change in law or regulations or in the interpretation thereof.



SECTION 2.8. Assets of Trust.



The assets of the Issuer Trust shall consist solely of the Trust Property.



SECTION 2.9. Title to Trust Property.



Legal title to all Trust Property shall be vested at all times in the Property Trustee (in its capacity as such) and shall
be held and administered by the Property Trustee for the benefit of the Issuer Trust and the Holders in accordance with this Trust Agreement.

PAYMENT ACCOUNT



SECTION 3.1. Payment Account.



(a) At or prior to Closing Date, the Property Trustee shall establish the Payment Account. The Property Trustee and its agents shall have exclusive
control and sole right of withdrawal with respect to the Payment Account for the purpose of making deposits in and withdrawals from the Payment Account in accordance with this Trust Agreement. All monies and other property deposited or held from
time to time in the Payment Account shall be held by the Property Trustee in the Payment Account for the exclusive benefit of the Holders and for distribution as herein provided, including (and subject to) any priority of payments provided for
herein.



(b) The Property Trustee shall deposit in the Payment
Account, promptly upon receipt, all payments of principal of or interest on, and any other payments or proceeds with respect to, the Junior Subordinated Debentures. Amounts held in the Payment Account shall not be invested by the Property Trustee
pending distribution thereof.



ARTICLE IV



DISTRIBUTIONS; REDEMPTION



SECTION 4.1. Distributions.



(a) The Trust Securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the
Trust Property, and Distributions (including of Additional Amounts) will be made on the Trust Securities at the rate and on the dates that payments of interest (including of Additional Interest, as defined in the Indenture) are made on the Junior
Subordinated Debentures. Accordingly:



(i)
Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be cumulative and will accumulate whether or not there are funds of the Issuer Trust available for the payment of Distributions. Distributions shall accumulate from May 7, 2004, and, except in the event
(and to the extent) that the Depositor exercises its right to defer the payment of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures pursuant to the Indenture, shall be payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of
each year, commencing on September 15, 2004. If any date on which a Distribution is otherwise payable on the Trust Securities is not a Business Day, then the payment of such Distribution shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business
Day (without any additional Distributions or other payment in respect of any such delay) (each date on which distributions are payable in accordance with this Section 4.1(a), a Distribution Date).



(ii) The Trust Securities shall be entitled to Distributions
payable at a floating rate equal to the then applicable LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum of the Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities. The rate at which Distributions are payable will be reset quarterly on the first day of each Distribution Reset
Period and will be equal to the then applicable LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum, as determined by the Calculation Agent. The



-18-



---

amount of Distributions payable for any period less than a full Distribution period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months
and the actual number of days elapsed in a partial month in a period. Distributions payable for each full Distribution period will be computed by dividing the rate per annum by four. The amount of Distributions payable for any period shall include
any Additional Amounts in respect of such period.



(iii) So long as no Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Depositor has the right under the Indenture to defer the payment of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures at any time and from time to time for a
period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly periods (an Extension Period), provided that no Extension Period may extend beyond June 15, 2034. As a consequence of any such deferral, quarterly Distributions on the Trust Securities by the
Issuer Trust will also be deferred (and the amount of Distributions to which Holders of the Trust Securities are entitled will accumulate additional Distributions thereon at a floating rate of the then applicable LIBOR plus 2.25% per annum,
compounded quarterly from the relevant payment date for such Distributions, computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and the actual days elapsed in a partial month in such period). Additional Distributions payable for each
full Distribution period will be computed by dividing the rate per annum by four. The term Distributions as used in Section 4.1 shall include any such additional Distributions provided pursuant to this Section 4.1(a)(iii).



(iv) Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be made by
the Property Trustee from the Payment Account and shall be payable on each Distribution Date only to the extent that the Issuer Trust has funds then on hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Distributions.



(v) All percentages resulting from the foregoing
calculations will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% being rounded to 9.87655%), and all dollar amounts used in or
resulting from such calculations will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).



(b) Distributions on the Trust Securities with respect to a Distribution Date shall be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the Securities
Register for the Trust Securities at the close of business on the relevant record date, which shall be at the close of business on the first day of the month in which the relevant Distribution Date occurs (whether or not a Business Day).



SECTION 4.2. Redemption.



(a) On each Debenture Redemption Date and on the stated maturity of the
Junior Subordinated Debentures, the Issuer Trust will be required to redeem a Like Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption Price.



(b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior
to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Trust Securities to be redeemed, at such Holders address appearing in the Security Register. All notices of redemption shall state:



(i) the Redemption Date;



-19-



---

(ii) the Redemption Price, or if the Redemption Price cannot be calculated prior to the
time the notice is required to be sent, the estimate of the Redemption Price provided pursuant to the Indenture together with a statement that it is an estimate and that the actual Redemption Price will be calculated on the third Business Day prior
to the Redemption Date (and if an estimate is provided, a further notice shall be sent of the actual Redemption Price on the date, or as soon as practicable thereafter, that notice of such actual Redemption Price is received pursuant to the
Indenture);



(iii) the CUSIP number or CUSIP
numbers of the Preferred Securities affected;



(iv) if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to be redeemed, the identification and the total Liquidation Amount of the particular Trust Securities to be redeemed;



(v) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Trust
Security to be redeemed and that Distributions thereon will cease to accumulate on and after said date, except as provided in Section 4.2(d) below; and



(vi) the place or places where Trust Securities are to be surrendered for the payment of the Redemption Price.



The Issuer Trust in issuing the Trust Securities may use CUSIP or
private placement numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Property Trustee shall indicate the CUSIP or private placement numbers of the Trust Securities in notices of redemption and related materials
as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Trust Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption and related material.



(c) The Trust Securities redeemed on each Redemption Date
shall be redeemed at the Redemption Price with the applicable proceeds from the contemporaneous redemption of Junior Subordinated Debentures. Redemptions of the Trust Securities shall be made and the Redemption Price shall be payable on each
Redemption Date only to the extent that the Issuer Trust has funds then on hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Redemption Price.



(d) If the Issuer Trust gives a notice of redemption in respect of any Preferred Securities, then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Redemption
Date, subject to Section 4.2(c), the Property Trustee will, with respect to Preferred Securities held in global form, irrevocably deposit with the Clearing Agency for such Preferred Securities, to the extent available therefor, funds sufficient to
pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give such Clearing Agency irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Preferred Securities. With respect to Preferred Securities that are not held in



-20-



---

global form, the Property Trustee, subject to Section 4.2(c), will irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, to the extent available therefor, funds
sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holder of the Preferred Securities upon surrender of their Preferred Securities Certificates.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributions payable on or prior to the Redemption Date for any Trust Securities called for redemption shall be payable to the Holders of such Trust Securities as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust
Securities on the relevant record dates for the related Distribution Dates. If notice of redemption shall have been given and funds deposited as required, then, upon the date of such deposit, all rights of Holders holding Trust Securities so called
for redemption will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive the Redemption Price and any Distribution payable in respect of the Trust Securities on or prior to the Redemption Date, but without interest, and such Trust Securities will
cease to be Outstanding. In the event that any date on which any applicable Redemption Price is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the applicable 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 date. In the event that payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Trust Securities called for redemption is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Issuer Trust or by the Depositor
pursuant to the Guarantee, Distributions on such Trust Securities will continue to accumulate, as set forth in Section 4.1 and in accordance with the continued accrual of interest on the Junior Subordinated Debentures, from the Redemption Date
originally established by the Issuer Trust for such Trust Securities to the date such applicable Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual payment date will be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the
applicable Redemption Price.



(e) Subject to Section 4.3(a), if
less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the aggregate Liquidation Amount of such Trust Securities to be redeemed shall be allocated pro rata to the Common Securities and the Preferred Securities
based on the relative Liquidation Amounts of such classes. The particular Preferred Securities to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis based on their respective Liquidation Amounts not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by
the Property Trustee from the Outstanding Preferred Securities not previously called for redemption, or if the Preferred Securities are then held in the form of a Global Preferred Security in accordance with the customary procedures for the Clearing
Agency; provided that, after giving effect to such redemption, no Holder shall hold Preferred Securities with an aggregate Liquidation Amount of less than $100,000, provided, however, that with respect to Holders that would be required to hold less
than 100 but more than zero Preferred Securities as a result of such pro rata redemption, the Property Trustee shall redeem each such Holder to either 100 Preferred Securities or zero Preferred Securities and shall use such method (including,
without limitation, by lot) as the Property Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate to decide such matter. The Property Trustee shall promptly notify the Securities Registrar in writing of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities to
be redeemed and the particular Preferred Securities selected for redemption. For all purposes of this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Preferred Securities shall relate, in the case
of any Preferred Securities redeemed, to the portion of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities that has been or is to be redeemed.

SECTION 4.3. Subordination of Common Securities.



(a) Payment of Distributions (including Additional Amounts, if applicable)
on, the Redemption Price of, and the Liquidation Distribution in respect of, the Trust Securities, as applicable, shall be made, as set forth in Section 4.2(e), pro rata among the Common Securities and the Preferred Securities based on the
Liquidation Amount of such Trust Securities; provided, however, that if on any Distribution Date or Redemption Date any Event of Default resulting from a Debenture Event of Default in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2) of the Indenture shall have occurred and
be continuing, no payment of any Distribution (including any Additional Amounts) on, Redemption Price of, or Liquidation Distribution in respect of, any Common Security, and no other payment on account of the redemption, liquidation or other
acquisition of Common Securities, shall be made unless payment in full in cash of all accumulated and unpaid Distributions (including any Additional Amounts) on all Outstanding Preferred Securities for all Distribution periods terminating on or
prior thereto, or, in the case of payment of the Redemption Price, the full amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding Preferred Securities then called for redemption, or in the case of payment of the Liquidation Distribution, the full
amount of such Liquidation Distribution on all Outstanding Preferred Securities, shall have been made or provided for, and all funds immediately available to the Property Trustee shall first be applied to the payment in full in cash of all
Distributions (including any Additional Amounts) on, or the Redemption Price of, or Liquidation Distribution in respect of, Preferred Securities then due and payable. The existence of an Event of Default does not entitle the Holders of Preferred
Securities to accelerate the maturity thereof.



(b) In the case
of the occurrence of any Event of Default resulting from any Debenture Event of Default, the Holder of the Common Securities shall be deemed to have waived any right to act with respect to any such Event of Default under this Trust Agreement until
the effects of all such Events of Default with respect to the Preferred Securities have been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated. Until all such Events of Default under this Trust Agreement with respect to the Preferred Securities have been so
cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, the Property Trustee shall act solely on behalf of the Holders of the Preferred Securities and not on behalf of the Holder of the Common Securities, and only the Holders of the Preferred Securities will have
the right to direct the Property Trustee to act on their behalf.



SECTION 4.4. Payment Procedures.



Payments of
Distributions (including any Additional Amounts) in respect of the Preferred Securities shall be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Securities Register or, if the Preferred
Securities are held by a Clearing Agency, such Distributions shall be made to the Clearing Agency in immediately available funds, which will credit the relevant accounts on the applicable Distribution Dates. Payments of Distributions to Holders of
$1,000,000 or more in aggregate Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities may be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds upon written request of such Holder to the Securities Registrar not later than 15 calendar days prior to the date
on which the Distribution is payable. Payments in respect of the Common Securities shall be made in such manner as shall be mutually agreed between the Property Trustee and the Holder of the Common Securities.

SECTION 4.5. Tax Returns and Reports.



The Administrators shall prepare (or cause to be prepared), at the
Depositors expense, and file all United States Federal, state and local tax and information returns and reports required to be filed by or in respect of the Issuer Trust. In this regard, the Administrators shall (a) prepare and file (or cause
to be prepared and filed) all Internal Revenue Service forms required to be filed in respect of the Issuer Trust in each taxable year of the Issuer Trust and (b) prepare and furnish (or cause to be prepared and furnished) to each Holder all Internal
Revenue Service forms required to be provided by the Issuer Trust. The Administrators shall provide the Depositor and the Property Trustee with a copy of all such returns and reports promptly after such filing or furnishing. The Issuer Trustees
shall comply with United States Federal withholding and backup withholding tax laws and information reporting requirements with respect to any payments to Holders under the Trust Securities.



On or before December 15 of each year during which any Preferred Securities
are Outstanding, the Administrators shall furnish to the Paying Agent such information as may be reasonably requested by the Property Trustee in order that the Property Trustee may prepare the information which it is required to report for such year
on Internal Revenue Service Forms 1096 and 1099 pursuant to Section 6049 of the Code. Such information shall include the amount of original issue discount includable in income for each Outstanding Preferred Security during such year, if any.



SECTION 4.6. Payment of Taxes, Duties, Etc. of the Issuer
Trust.



Upon receipt under the Junior Subordinated
Debentures of Additional Sums, the Property Trustee shall promptly pay any taxes, duties or governmental charges of whatsoever nature (other than withholding taxes) imposed on the Issuer Trust by the United States or any other taxing authority out
of the proceeds of the Additional Sums.



SECTION 4.7.
Payments under Indenture or Pursuant to Direct Actions.



Any amount payable hereunder to any Holder of Preferred Securities shall be reduced by the amount of any corresponding payment such Holder (or Owner) has directly received pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Indenture or Section 5.13 of this
Trust Agreement.



SECTION 4.8. Liability of the Holder of
Common Securities.



The Holder of Common Securities shall
be liable for the debts and obligations of the Issuer Trust as set forth in Section 6.7 of the Indenture regarding allocation of expenses.

Securities in definitive form and shall not be considered the Holders thereof under this Trust Agreement. Accordingly, any such owners beneficial interest in the Global Preferred Security shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such

(f) The rights of owners of beneficial interests in the Global
Preferred Security shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such owners and the Clearing Agency.



SECTION 5.5. Registration of Transfer and Exchange Generally; Certain Transfers and Exchanges; Preferred Securities
Certificates; Securities Act Legends.



(a) The Property
Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept at its Corporate Trust Office a register or registers for the purpose of registering Preferred Securities Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Preferred Securities Certificates in which the registrar and
transfer agent with respect to the Preferred Securities (the Securities Registrar), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall provide for the registration of Preferred Securities Certificates and Common Securities
Certificates (subject to Section 5.11 in the case of Common Securities Certificates) and registration of transfers and exchanges of Preferred Securities Certificates as herein provided. Such register is herein sometimes referred to as the
Securities Register. The Property Trustee is hereby appointed Securities Registrar for the purpose of registering Preferred Securities and transfers of Preferred Securities as herein provided.



Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Preferred Security at the
offices or agencies of the Property Trustee designated for that purpose an Administrator shall execute, and the Property Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Preferred
Securities of the same series of any authorized denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Trust Agreement.



At the option of the Holder, Preferred Securities may be exchanged for other Preferred Securities of any authorized
denominations, of like tenor and aggregate Liquidation Amount and bearing such restrictive legends as may be required by this Trust Agreement, upon surrender of the Preferred Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any
Preferred Securities are so surrendered for exchange, an Administrator shall execute and the Property Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Preferred Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.



All Preferred Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Preferred
Securities shall be the valid obligations of the Issuer Trust, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this Trust Agreement, as the Preferred Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.



-26-



---

Every Preferred Security presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the
Property Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Property Trustee and the Securities Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holders attorney duly authorized
in writing.



No service charge shall be made to a Holder for
any transfer or exchange of Preferred Securities, but the Property Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Preferred Securities.



Neither the Issuer Trust nor the Property Trustee shall be
required, pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.5, (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Preferred Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the day of selection for redemption of Preferred
Securities pursuant to Article IV and ending at the close of business on the day of mailing of the notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Preferred Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except,
in the case of any such Preferred Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.



(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, transfers and exchanges of Preferred Securities and beneficial interests in the Global
Preferred Security shall be made only in accordance with this Section 5.5(b).



(i) Non-Global Restricted Preferred Security to Global Preferred Security. If the Holder of a Restricted Preferred Security (other than the Global Preferred Security) wishes at any time to transfer all or any
portion of such Trust Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of a beneficial interest in the Global Preferred Security, such transfer may be effected only in accordance with the provisions of this clause (b)(i) and
subject to the Applicable Procedures. Upon receipt by the Security Registrar of (A) such Trust Security as provided in Section 5.5(a) and instructions satisfactory to the Security Registrar directing that a beneficial interest in the Global
Preferred Security in a specified Liquidation Amount not greater than the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Security to be credited to a specified Clearing Agency Participants account and (B) a Restricted Securities Certificate duly executed by
such Holder or such Holders attorney duly authorized in writing, then the Security Registrar shall cancel such Trust Security (and issue a new Trust Security in respect of any untransferred portion thereof) as provided in Section 5.5(a) and
increase the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Global Preferred Security by the specified Liquidation Amount as provided in Section 5.4(c).



(ii) Non-Global Preferred Security to Non-Global Preferred Security. A Trust Security that is not a Global Preferred Security may
be transferred, in whole or in part, to a Person who takes delivery in the form of another Trust Security that is not a Global Preferred Security as provided in Section 5.5(a) provided that if the Trust Security to be transferred in whole or in part
is a Restricted Preferred Security, the Securities Registrar shall have received a Restricted Securities Certificate duly executed by the transferor Holder or such Holders attorney duly authorized in writing.

(iii) Exchanges Between Global Preferred Security and Non-Global Preferred
Security. A beneficial interest in the Global Preferred Security may be exchanged for a Trust Security that is not a Global Preferred Security as provided in Section 5.4.



(iv) Certain Initial Transfers of Non-Global Trust Securities. In the case of Trust Securities
initially issued other than in global form, an initial transfer or exchange of such Trust Securities that does not involve any change in beneficial ownership may be made to an Institutional Accredited Investor or Investors as if such transfer or
exchange were not an initial transfer or exchange; provided that written certification shall be provided by the transferee and transferor of such Trust Securities to the Securities Registrar that such transfer or exchange does not involve a change
in beneficial ownership.



(v) Limitations
Relating to Principal Amount. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement and unless otherwise specified as permitted by this Trust Agreement, Trust Securities or portions thereof may be transferred or exchanged only in principal
amounts of not less than $100,000. Any transfer, exchange or other disposition of Trust Securities in contravention of this Section 5.5(b)(v) shall be deemed to be void and of no legal effect whatsoever, any such transferee shall be deemed not to be
the Holder or owner of any beneficial interest in such Trust Securities for any purpose, including but not limited to the receipt of interest payable on such Trust Securities, and such transferee shall be deemed to have no interest whatsoever in
such Trust Securities.



(c) If at any time the Depositor or any
of its Affiliates (in either case, a Depositor Affiliated Owner/Holder) is the Owner or Holder of any Preferred Securities, such Depositor Affiliated Owner/Holder shall have the right to deliver to the Property Trustee all or such
portion of its Preferred Securities as it elects and receive, in exchange therefor, a Like Amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures. Such election (i) shall be exercisable effective on any Distribution Date by such Depositor Affiliated Owner/Holder
delivering to the Property Trustee a written notice of such election specifying the Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities with respect to which such election is being made and the Distribution Date on which such exchange shall occur, which
Distribution Date shall be not less than ten Business Days after the date of receipt by the Property Trustee of such election notice and (ii) shall be conditioned upon such Depositor Affiliated Owner/Holder having delivered or caused to be delivered
to the Property Trustee or its designee the Preferred Securities which are the subject of such election by 10:00 A.M. New York time, on the Distribution Date on which such exchange is to occur. After the exchange, such Preferred Securities will be
canceled and will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and all rights of the Depositor or its Affiliate(s) with respect to such Preferred Securities will cease. Any Preferred Securities with respect to which a Depositor Affiliated Owner/Holder is
the Owner or Holder may not be sold or otherwise transferred except for (i) exchanges described above in this Section 5.5(c) or (ii) transfers to another Depositor Affiliated Owner/Holder.



(d) In the case of any exchange described in Section 5.5(c), the Issuer Trust
will, on the date of such exchange, exchange Junior Subordinated Debentures having a principal amount equal to a proportional amount of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding Common Securities, based on the ratio of the aggregate
Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities exchanged pursuant to Section 5.5(c) divided by the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities Outstanding immediately prior to such exchange, for such proportional



-28-

amount of Common Securities held by the Depositor (which contemporaneously shall be canceled and no longer deemed to be Outstanding); provided, that the
Depositor delivers or causes to be delivered to the Property Trustee or its designee the required amount of Common Securities to be exchanged by 10:00 A.M. New York time, on the Distribution Date on which such exchange is to occur.



(e) Restricted Securities Legend. Except as set forth below, all
Preferred Securities shall bear a Restricted Preferred Securities Legend:



(i) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 5.5(e), a Preferred Security or any portion thereof that is exchanged, upon transfer or otherwise, for a Global Preferred Security or any portion thereof shall bear
the Restricted Preferred Securities Legend while represented thereby;



(ii) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 5.5(e), a new Preferred Security which is not a Global Preferred Security and is issued in exchange for another Preferred Security (including a Global Preferred
Security) or any portion thereof, upon transfer or otherwise, shall, if such new Preferred Security is required to be issued in the form of a Restricted Preferred Security, bear a Restricted Preferred Securities Legend;



(iii) a new Preferred Security (other than a Global
Preferred Security) that does not bear a Restricted Preferred Securities Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Restricted Preferred Security or any portion thereof that bears such a legend if, in the Depositors judgment, placing
such a legend upon such new Preferred Security is not necessary to ensure compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the Property Trustee, at the written direction of the Issuer Trust in the form of an Officers
Certificate, shall authenticate and deliver such new Preferred Security as provided in this Article V;



(iv) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.5(e), a Successor Preferred Security of a Preferred Security that does not
bear a Restricted Preferred Securities Legend shall not bear such form of legend unless the Depositor has reasonable cause to believe that such Successor Preferred Security is a restricted security within the meaning of Rule 144 under
the Securities Act, in which case the Property Trustee, at the written direction of the Issuer Trust in the form of an Officers Certificate, shall authenticate and deliver a new Preferred Security bearing a Restricted Preferred Securities
Legend in exchange for such Successor Preferred Security as provided in this Article V; and



(v) Junior Subordinated Debentures distributed to a holder of Preferred Securities upon dissolution of the Issuer Trust shall bear a
Restricted Preferred Securities Legend if the Preferred Securities so held bear a similar legend.



SECTION 5.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Securities Certificates.



If (a) any mutilated Trust Securities Certificate shall be surrendered to the Securities Registrar, or if the Securities
Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Securities Certificate and (b) there shall be delivered to the



-29-



---

Securities Registrar and the Administrators such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of
notice that such Trust Securities Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Administrators, or any one of them, on behalf of the Issuer Trust shall execute and make available for delivery, and the Property Trustee shall
authenticate, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Securities Certificate, a new Trust Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust
Securities Certificate under this Section, the Administrators or the Securities Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust
Securities Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.6 shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Issuer Trust corresponding to that evidenced by the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities
Certificate, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities Certificate shall be found at any time.



SECTION 5.7. Persons Deemed Holders.



The Issuer Trustees or the Securities Registrar shall treat the Person in whose name any Trust Securities are issued as the owner of such Trust Securities
for the purpose of receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Issuer Trustees, the Administrators nor the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.



SECTION 5.8. Access to List of Holders Names and Addresses.



Each Holder and each Owner shall be deemed to have agreed not
to hold the Depositor, the Property Trustee, or the Administrators accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.



SECTION 5.9. Maintenance of Office or Agency.



The Property Trustee shall designate, with the consent of the
Administrators, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Preferred Securities Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon
the Issuer Trustees in respect of the Trust Securities Certificates may be served. The Property Trustee initially designates its Corporate Trust Office at 60 Wall Street, 27th Floor, MS NYC 60-2710, New York, NY 10005, Attention: Trust and
Securities Services, as its corporate trust office for such purposes. The Property Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Administrators and to the Holders of any change in the location of the Securities Register or any such
office or agency.



SECTION 5.10. Appointment of Paying
Agent.



The Paying Agent shall make Distributions to
Holders from the Payment Account and shall report the amounts of such Distributions to the Property Trustee and the Administrators. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Payment Account solely for the purpose of
making the Distributions referred to above. The Property Trustee may revoke such power and remove any Paying Agent in its sole discretion. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Property Trustee. Any Person acting as Paying Agent shall be permitted
to resign



-30-



---

as Paying Agent upon 30 days written notice to the Administrators and the Property Trustee. In the event that the Property Trustee shall no longer be
the Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent shall resign or its authority to act be revoked, the Property Trustee shall appoint a successor (which shall be a bank or trust company) that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrators to act as
Paying Agent. Such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Administrators shall execute and deliver to the Issuer Trustees an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with
the Issuer Trustees that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Holders in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid
to such Holders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Property Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The provisions of Sections 8.1,
8.3 and 8.6 herein shall apply to the Bank also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Bank shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the
Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent chosen by the Property Trustee unless the context requires otherwise.



SECTION 5.11. Ownership of Common Securities by Depositor.



At Closing Date, the Depositor shall acquire and retain beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities. Neither
the Depositor nor any successor Holder of the Common Securities may transfer less than all the Common Securities, and the Depositor or any such successor Holder may transfer the Common Securities only (i) in connection with a consolidation or merger
of the Depositor into another Person or any conveyance, transfer or lease by the Depositor of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Indenture, or (ii) to an Affiliate of the Depositor in
compliance with applicable law (including the Securities Act and applicable state securities and blue sky laws); provided that any such transfer shall be subject to the condition that the transferor shall have obtained (A) either a ruling from the
Internal Revenue Service or an unqualified written opinion addressed to the Issuer Trust and delivered to the Issuer Trustees of nationally recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that such transfer will not (1)
cause the Issuer Trust to be treated as issuing a class of interests in the Issuer Trust differing from the class of interests represented by the Common Securities originally issued to the Depositor, (2) result in the Issuer Trust acquiring or
disposing of, or being deemed to have acquired or disposed of, an asset, or (3) result in or cause the Issuer Trust to be treated as anything other than a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes and (B) an unqualified written
opinion addressed to the Issuer Trust and delivered to the Issuer Trustees of a nationally recognized independent counsel experienced in such matters that such transfer will not cause the Issuer Trust to be an investment company or
controlled by an investment company that is required to be registered under the Investment Company Act. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any attempted transfer of the Common Securities, other than as set forth in the immediately
preceding sentence, shall be void. The Administrators shall cause each Common Securities Certificate issued to the Depositor to contain a legend stating THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND SECTION
5.11 OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT.

SECTION 5.12. Notices to Clearing Agency.



To the extent that a notice or other communication to the Holders is
required under this Trust Agreement, with respect to Preferred Securities represented by Global Preferred Securities Certificates, the Administrators and the Issuer Trustees shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given
to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligations to the Owners.



SECTION 5.13. Rights of Holders.



(a) The
legal title to the Trust Property is vested exclusively in the Property Trustee (in its capacity as such) in accordance with Section 2.9, and the Holders shall not have any right or title therein other than the undivided beneficial ownership
interest in the assets of the Issuer Trust conferred by their Trust Securities and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Issuer Trust except as described below. The Trust Securities
shall be personal property giving only the rights specifically set forth therein and in this Trust Agreement. The Trust Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights and when issued and delivered to Holders against payment of the purchase
price therefor, as provided herein, will be fully paid and nonassessable by the Issuer Trust. Except as otherwise provided in Section 4.8, the Holders of the Trust Securities, in their capacities as such, shall be entitled to the same limitation of
personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.



(b) For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, if, upon a Debenture Event of Default, the Debenture Trustee fails or the holders of not
less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Junior Subordinated Debentures fail to declare the principal of all of the Junior Subordinated Debentures to be immediately due and payable, the Holders of at least 25% in Liquidation Amount of
the Preferred Securities then Outstanding shall have such right to make such declaration by a notice in writing to the Property Trustee, the Depositor and the Debenture Trustee.



At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to the Junior Subordinated Debentures has been made and
before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Debenture Trustee as provided in the Indenture, the Holders of a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, by written notice to the Property Trustee,
the Depositor and the Debenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:



(i) the Depositor has paid or deposited with the Debenture Trustee a sum sufficient to pay



(A) all overdue installments of interest on all of the
Junior Subordinated Debentures,



(B) any
accrued Additional Interest on all of the Junior Subordinated Debentures,



(C) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Junior Subordinated Debentures which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest and Additional Interest thereon at the rate borne
by the Junior Subordinated Debentures, and



-32-



---

(D) all sums paid or advanced by the Debenture Trustee under the Indenture and the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Debenture Trustee and the Property Trustee, their agents and counsel; and



(ii) all Events of Default with respect to the Junior Subordinated Debentures, other than the non-payment of the principal of the Junior
Subordinated Debentures which has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13 of the Indenture.



If the Property Trustee fails to annul any such declaration and waive such default, the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities shall also have the right to rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences by written notice to the Depositor, the Property Trustee and the Debenture Trustee, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in
clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 5.13(b).



The Holders of
at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Preferred Securities, waive any past default under the Indenture, except a default in the payment of principal or interest (unless such
default has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal due otherwise than by acceleration has been deposited with the Debenture Trustee) or a default in respect of a covenant or provision which under
the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Junior Subordinated Debenture. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.



Upon receipt by the Property Trustee of written notice declaring such an
acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, by Holders of the Preferred Securities all or part of which is represented by Global Preferred Securities, a record date shall be established for determining Holders of Outstanding Preferred
Securities entitled to join in such notice, which record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Property Trustee receives such notice. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only such Persons, shall be
entitled to join in such notice, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that, unless such declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective by virtue of
the requisite percentage having joined in such notice prior to the day which is 90 days after such record date, such notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall automatically and without further
action by any Holder be canceled and of no further effect. Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new written notice of declaration of acceleration, or
rescission and annulment thereof, as the case may be, that is identical to a written notice which has been canceled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions
of this Section 5.13(b).



(c) For so long as any Preferred
Securities remain Outstanding, to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the terms of this Trust Agreement and the Indenture, upon a



-33-



---

Debenture Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2) of the Indenture, any Holder of Preferred Securities shall have the right to institute a
proceeding directly against the Depositor, pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Indenture, for enforcement of payment to such Holder of the principal amount of or interest on Junior Subordinated Debentures having an aggregate principal amount equal to the
aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities of such Holder (a Direct Action). Except as set forth in Sections 5.13(b) and 5.13(c), the Holders of Preferred Securities shall have no right to exercise directly any right or
remedy available to the holders of, or in respect of, the Junior Subordinated Debentures.



ARTICLE VI



ACTS OF
HOLDERS; MEETINGS; VOTING



SECTION 6.1. Limitations on
Holders Voting Rights.



(a) Except as provided in
this Trust Agreement and in the Indenture and as otherwise required by law, no Holder of Preferred Securities shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the administration, operation and management of the Issuer Trust or the
obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth or contained in the terms of the Trust Securities Certificates be construed so as to constitute the Holders from time to time as members of an association.



(b) So long as any Junior Subordinated Debentures are held by the Property
Trustee on behalf of the Issuer Trust, the Property Trustee shall not (i) direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or execute any trust or power conferred on the Property
Trustee with respect to such Junior Subordinated Debentures, (ii) waive any past default that may be waived under Section 5.13 of the Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Junior
Subordinated Debentures shall be due and payable or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Junior Subordinated Debentures, where such consent shall be required, without, in each case, obtaining the prior
approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, provided, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of each holder of Junior Subordinated Debentures affected
thereby, no such consent shall be given by the Property Trustee without the prior written consent of each Holder of Preferred Securities. The Property Trustee shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of
Preferred Securities, except by a subsequent vote of the Holders of Preferred Securities. The Property Trustee shall notify all Holders of the Preferred Securities of any notice of default received with respect to the Junior Subordinated Debentures.
In addition to obtaining the foregoing approvals of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the Property Trustee shall, at the expense of the Depositor, obtain an Opinion of Counsel experienced in such
matters to the effect that such action will not cause the Issuer Trust to be taxable other than as a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes.



(c) If any proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement provides for, or the Issuer Trust otherwise proposes to effect, (i) any
action that would adversely affect in any material respect the interests, powers, preferences or special rights of the Preferred Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Trust Agreement or otherwise, or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or



-34-



---

termination of the Issuer Trust, other than pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement, then the Holders of Outstanding Trust Securities as a 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 the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Trust Agreement, no amendment to this Trust Agreement may be made if, as a result of such amendment, it would cause the Issuer Trust to be taxable other than as a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes.



SECTION 6.2. Notice of Meetings.



Notice of all meetings of the Holders, stating the time, place and purpose
of the meeting, shall be given by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 10.8 to each Holder of record, at his registered address, at least 15 days and not more than 90 days before the meeting. At any such meeting, any business properly before the
meeting may be so considered whether or not stated in the notice of the meeting. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice.



SECTION 6.3. Meetings of Holders.



No annual meeting of Holders is required to be held. The Property Trustee, however, shall call a meeting of Holders to vote on any matter upon the written
request of the Holders of record of 25% of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities and the Administrators or the Property Trustee may, at any time in their discretion, call a meeting of Holders of Preferred Securities to vote on
any matters as to which Holders are entitled to vote.



Holders
of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of Holders of the Preferred Securities.



If a quorum is present at a meeting, an affirmative vote by the Holders of
record present, in person or by proxy, holding Preferred Securities representing at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities held by the Holders present, either in person or by proxy, at such meeting shall constitute the
action of the Holders of Preferred Securities, unless this Trust Agreement requires a greater number of affirmative votes.



SECTION 6.4. Voting Rights.



Holders shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 of Liquidation Amount represented by their Outstanding Trust Securities in respect of any matter as
to which such Holders are entitled to vote.



SECTION 6.5.
Proxies, etc.



At any meeting of Holders, any Holder
entitled to vote at such meeting may vote by proxy, provided that no proxy shall be voted at any meeting unless it shall have been placed on file with the Property Trustee, or with such other officer or agent of the Issuer Trust as the Property
Trustee may direct, for verification prior to the time at which such vote shall be taken. Pursuant to a resolution of the Property Trustee, proxies may be solicited in the name of the



-35-



---

Property Trustee or one or more officers of the Property Trustee. Only Holders of record shall be entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by
several persons, any one of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy in respect of such Trust Securities, but if more than one of them shall be present at such meeting in person or by proxy, and such joint owners or their proxies so
present disagree as to any vote to be cast, such vote shall not be received in respect of such Trust Securities. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a Holder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise, and
the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger. No proxy shall be valid more than three years after its date of execution.



SECTION 6.6. Holder Action by Written Consent.



Any action which may be taken by Holders at a meeting may be taken without a meeting and without prior notice if Holders holding at least a Majority in
Liquidation Amount of all Trust Securities entitled to vote in respect of such action (or such larger proportion thereof as shall be required by any other provision of this Trust Agreement) shall consent to the action in writing.



SECTION 6.7. Record Date for Voting and Other Purposes.



For the purposes of determining the Holders who are entitled to notice of
and to vote at any meeting or by written consent, or to participate in any distribution on the Trust Securities in respect of which a record date is not otherwise provided for in this Trust Agreement, or for the purpose of any other action, the
Administrators or Property Trustee may from time to time fix a date, not more than 90 days prior to the date of any meeting of Holders or the payment of a distribution or other action, as the case may be, as a record date for the determination of
the identity of the Holders of record for such purposes.



SECTION 6.8. Acts of Holders.



Any request,
demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Trust Agreement to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor
signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Property Trustee. Such
instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as an Act of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing
appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Trust Agreement and (subject to Section 8.1) conclusive in favor of the Issuer Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this Section.



The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or
writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing
acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the
execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which any Issuer Trustee or Administrator receiving the same deems sufficient.



-36-



---

The ownership of Trust Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register.



Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other Act of the Holder of any Trust Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Trust Security and the Holder of every Trust Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of
anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Issuer Trustees, the Administrators or the Issuer Trust in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Trust Security.



Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any
action hereunder with regard to any particular Trust Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with
regard to all or any part of such Liquidation Amount.



If any
dispute shall arise among the Holders, the Administrators or the Issuer Trustees with respect to the authenticity, validity or binding nature of any request, demand, authorization, direction, consent, waiver or other Act of such Holder or Issuer
Trustee under this Article VI, then the determination of such matter by the Property Trustee shall be conclusive with respect to such matter.



SECTION 6.9. Inspection of Records.



Upon reasonable notice to the Administrators and the Property Trustee, the records of the Issuer Trust shall be open to inspection by Holders during
normal business hours for any purpose reasonably related to such Holders interest as a Holder.



ARTICLE VII

ARTICLE VIII



THE ISSUER TRUSTEES; THE ADMINISTRATORS



SECTION 8.1. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.



(a) The duties and responsibilities of the Issuer Trustees and the Administrators shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement and, in the case of the Property Trustee, by the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision
of this Trust Agreement shall require the Issuer Trustees or the Administrators to expend or risk their own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of their duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of their
rights or powers, if they shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of
this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Issuer Trustees or the Administrators shall be subject to the provisions of this Section. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be construed to
release an Administrator or an Issuer Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct. To the extent that, at law or in equity, an Issuer Trustee or Administrator has duties and
liabilities relating to the Issuer Trust or to the Holders, such Issuer Trustee or Administrator shall not be liable to the Issuer Trust or to any Holder for such Issuer Trustees or Administrators good faith reliance on the provisions of
this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Issuer Trustees and Administrators otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Holders
to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Issuer Trustees and Administrators.



(b) All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in respect of the Trust Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be
sufficient revenue or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that it will look solely to the
revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally available for distribution to it as herein provided and that neither the Issuer Trustees nor the Administrators are personally liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of
any Trust Security or for any other liability in respect of any Trust Security. This Section 8.1(b) does not limit the liability of the Issuer Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in this Trust Agreement or, in the case of the Property Trustee, in
the Trust Indenture Act.



(c) The 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 perform only such



-39-



---

duties as are specifically set forth in this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.10), and no implied covenants shall be read into this Trust
Agreement against the Property Trustee. If an Event of Default has occurred (that has not been cured or waived pursuant to Section 5.13 of the Indenture), the Property Trustee shall enforce this Trust Agreement for the benefit of the Holders and
shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own
affairs.



(d) No provision of this Trust Agreement 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 any 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 Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.10), and the Property Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties
and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.10); 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 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 Trust Agreement; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions
that by any provision hereof or of the Trust Indenture Act 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 Trust Agreement;



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



(iii) the 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 Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities relating to the time, method and place of conducting any

except to the extent otherwise required by law;

choosing (which counsel may be counsel to the Depositor or any of its Affiliates, and may include any of its employees) and the advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken suffered or

(h) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to enforcing

-42-



---

Trustee or Administrator to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it, in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the Property Trustee shall be unqualified or incompetent
in accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts, or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation. No permissive power or authority available to any Issuer Trustee or Administrator shall be construed to be a duty.



SECTION 8.4. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of
Securities.



The recitals contained herein and in the
Trust Securities Certificates shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer Trust, and the Issuer Trustees and the Administrators do not assume any responsibility for their correctness. The Issuer Trustees and the Administrators shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of the proceeds of the Junior Subordinated Debentures.



SECTION 8.5. May Hold Securities.



The Depositor, the Administrators, any Issuer Trustee or any other agent of any Issuer Trustee or the Issuer Trust, in its individual or any other
capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Trust Securities and, subject to Sections 5.5(c), 8.8 and 8.13 and except as provided in the definition of the term Outstanding in Article I, may otherwise deal with the Issuer Trust with the
same rights it would have if it were not the Depositor, an Administrator, Issuer Trustee or such other agent.



SECTION 8.6. Compensation; Indemnity; Fees.



The Depositor, as borrower, agrees:



(a) to pay to the Issuer Trustees from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by them hereunder (which compensation shall not be
limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);



(b) to reimburse the Issuer Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Issuer Trustees in
accordance with any provision of this Trust Agreement (including the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to their negligence or
willful misconduct; and



(c) to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Issuer Trustee, (ii) each Administrator, (iii) any Affiliate of any Issuer Trustee, (iv) any officer, director, shareholder, employee, representative or agent of any Issuer Trustee, and (v) any
employee or agent of the Issuer Trust, (referred to herein as an Indemnified Person) from and against any loss, damage, liability, tax, penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by such Indemnified Person
arising out of or in connection with the creation, operation or dissolution of the Issuer Trust or any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Issuer Trust and in a manner such



-43-



---

Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Trust Agreement, except that no
Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.



The provisions of this Section 8.6 shall survive the termination of this
Trust Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Indemnified Persons.



The obligation of the Depositor under this Section 8.6 to compensate, reimburse and indemnify the Issuer Trustees shall be secured by a Lien upon all Trust Property (except funds held in trust for the benefit of
Holders of particular Trust Securities), but only to the extent of the interest of the Holder of the Common Securities therein.



The Depositor, any Administrator and any Issuer 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 Issuer Trust, and the Issuer Trust and the Holders of Trust Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement 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 Issuer Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. Neither the Depositor, any Administrator, nor any Issuer Trustee shall be
obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Issuer Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Issuer Trust, could be taken by the Issuer Trust, and the Depositor, any Administrator or
any Issuer 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 Issuer Trustee may engage or be interested in any
financial or other transaction with the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor, or may act as depository for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of the Depositor or its
Affiliates.



In no event shall the Issuer Trustees be liable
for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever, including, but not limited to, lost profits, even if the Issuer Trustees have been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the
form of action.



In no event shall the Issuer Trustees be
liable for any failure or delay in the performance of their obligations hereunder because of circumstances beyond their control, including, but not limited to, acts of God, flood, war (whether declared or undeclared), terrorism, fire, riot, embargo,
government action, including any laws, ordinances, regulations, governmental action or the like which delay, restrict or prohibit the providing of the services contemplated by this Trust Agreement.



SECTION 8.7. Corporate Property Trustee Required; Eligibility of Trustees
and Administrators.



(a) There shall at all times be a
Property Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a Person that is a national or state chartered bank and eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus
of at least $50,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually,



-44-



---

pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of
such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Property Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall cease to be eligible in accordance
with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VIII. At the time of appointment, the Property Trustee must have securities rated in one of the three highest
rating categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.



(b) There shall at all times be one or more Administrators hereunder. Each Administrator shall be either a natural person who is at least 21 years of age or a legal entity that shall act through one or more persons
authorized to bind that entity. An employee, officer or Affiliate of the Depositor may serve as an Administrator.



(c) There shall at all times be a Delaware Trustee. The Delaware Trustee shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a
resident of the State of Delaware or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the State of Delaware and that otherwise meets the requirements of applicable Delaware law that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind
such entity.



SECTION 8.8. Conflicting Interests.



(a) If the Property Trustee has or shall acquire a
conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Property Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this
Trust Agreement.



(b) The Guarantee and the Indenture shall be
deemed to be sufficiently described in this Trust Agreement for the purposes of clause (i) of the first proviso contained in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act.



SECTION 8.9. Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee.



Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal
requirements of the Trust Indenture Act or of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property may at the time be located, the Property Trustee shall have power to appoint, and upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor
and the Administrators shall for such purpose join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery, and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Property Trustee either to
act as co-trustee, jointly with the Property Trustee, of all or any part of such Trust Property, or to the extent required by law to act as separate trustee of any such property, in either case with such powers as may be provided in the instrument
of appointment, and to vest in such Person or Persons in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or desirable, subject to the other provisions of this Section. Any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed
pursuant to this Section shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the United States or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the United States that shall act through one or more
persons authorized to bind such entity.



-45-



---

Should any written instrument from the Depositor be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so
appointed for more fully confirming to such co-trustee or separate trustee such property, title, right, or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Depositor.



Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law,
but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely:



(a) The Trust Securities shall be executed by one or more Administrators, and the Trust Securities shall be authenticated and delivered by the Property Trustee and all rights, powers, duties, and obligations hereunder
in respect of the custody of securities, cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Property Trustee specified hereunder, shall be exercised, solely by the Property Trustee and not by such co-trustee
or separate trustee.



(b) The rights, powers, duties, and
obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Property Trustee in respect of any property covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Property Trustee and such co-trustee or separate trustee
jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or separate trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Property Trustee shall be incompetent or
unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee.



(c) The Property Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the written concurrence of the
Depositor, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section, and, in case a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall have power to accept the
resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence of the Depositor. Upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor shall join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery and
performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section 8.9.



(d) No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be
personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Property Trustee or any other trustee hereunder.



(e) The Property Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act of a co-trustee or separate trustee.



(f) Any Act of Holders delivered to the Property Trustee shall be deemed to
have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate trustee.



SECTION 8.10. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.



No resignation or removal of any Issuer Trustee (the Relevant Trustee) and no appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the
successor trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11.



-46-



---

Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, a Relevant Trustee may resign at any time by giving
written notice thereof to the Holders. The Holder of the Common Securities shall appoint a successor by requesting from at least three Persons meeting the eligibility requirements its expenses and charges to serve as the successor trustee on a form
provided by the Administrators, and selecting the Person who agrees to the lowest expenses and charges. If the instrument of acceptance by the successor trustee required by Section 8.11 shall not have been delivered to the Relevant Trustee within 60
days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the Relevant Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Issuer Trust, any court of the State of Delaware for the appointment of a successor Relevant Trustee.



The Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may be removed at any time (i)
for cause (including upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in subparagraph (e) of the definition thereof with respect to the Relevant Trustee) by the Holder of the Common Securities, or (ii) if a Debenture Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing at any time, by Act of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, delivered to the Relevant Trustee (in its individual capacity and on behalf of the Issuer Trust).



If a Relevant Trustee shall be removed or become incapable of acting as
Issuer Trustee, or if any vacancy shall occur in the office of any Issuer Trustee for any cause, the Holder of the Common Securities shall promptly appoint a successor Relevant Trustee or Trustees, and such successor Issuer Trustee shall comply with
the applicable requirements of Section 8.11, provided, however, that if a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time, the Holders of the Preferred Securities, by Act of the Holders of record of not less than 25% in
aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities than Outstanding delivered to such Relevant Trustee, shall appoint such successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed by the Holder of the Common Securities or the
Holders of the Preferred Securities, as applicable, and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 8.11, any Holder, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, or any other Issuer Trustee, may petition any court in the State
of Delaware for the appointment of a successor trustee.



The
Property Trustee shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of a Relevant Trustee and each appointment of a successor trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 10.8 and shall give notice to the Depositor and to the
Administrators. Each notice shall include the name of the Relevant Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office if it is the Property Trustee.



Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Trust Agreement, in the event any Delaware Trustee who is a natural person dies or becomes,
in the opinion of the Holder of the Common Securities, incompetent or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity may be filled by the Property Trustee following the procedures regarding expenses and charges set
forth above (with the successor in each case being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, set forth in Section 8.7).



-47-

SECTION 8.11. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.



In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Relevant Trustee, the
retiring Relevant Trustee and each such successor Relevant Trustee (if requested by the Depositor) with respect to the Trust Securities shall execute, acknowledge and deliver an amendment hereto wherein each successor Relevant Trustee shall accept
such appointment and which (a) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Relevant Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee
with respect to the Trust Securities and the Issuer Trust, and (b) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the Issuer Trust by more than one
Relevant Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such amendment shall constitute such Relevant Trustee a co-trustee and upon the execution and delivery of such amendment the resignation or removal of the retiring Relevant Trustee
shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Relevant Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee; but, on
request of the Issuer Trust or any successor Relevant Trustee such retiring Relevant Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Relevant Trustee all Trust Property, all proceeds thereof and money held by such retiring Relevant
Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities and the Issuer Trust.



Upon request of any such successor Relevant Trustee, the Issuer Trust shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Relevant Trustee all such rights,
powers and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be.



No successor Relevant Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Relevant Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VIII.



SECTION 8.12. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to
Business.



Any Person into which the Property Trustee or
the Delaware Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Relevant Trustee shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or
substantially all the corporate trust business of such Relevant Trustee, shall be the successor of such Relevant Trustee hereunder, provided that such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VIII, without the execution or
filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.



SECTION 8.13. Preferential Collection of Claims Against Depositor or Issuer Trust.



If and when the Property Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Depositor (or any other obligor upon the Trust Securities), the Property Trustee
shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Depositor (or any such other obligor) only if this Trust Agreement is subject to the Trust Indenture Act.



-48-

SECTION 8.14. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.



In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy,
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other similar judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer Trust or any other obligor upon the Trust Securities or the property of the Issuer Trust or of such other obligor, the Property Trustee
(irrespective of whether any Distributions on the Trust Securities shall then be due and payable and irrespective of whether the Property Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer Trust for the payment of any past due Distributions) shall be
entitled and empowered, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:



(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any Distributions owing and unpaid in respect of the Trust Securities and to file such other papers
or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Property Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the
Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding; and



(b) to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding
is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Property Trustee and, in the event the Property Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Property Trustee any amount due it for the
reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Property Trustee.



Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Property Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any
plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or compensation affecting the Trust Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Property Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.



SECTION 8.15. Reports by Property Trustee.



(a) Not later than January 31 of each year commencing with January 31, 2005,
the Property Trustee shall transmit to all Holders in accordance with Section 10.8, and to the Depositor, a brief report dated as of the immediately preceding December 31 with respect to:



(i) its eligibility under Section 8.7 or, in lieu thereof,
if to the best of its knowledge it has continued to be eligible under said Section, a written statement to such effect; and



(ii) any change in the property and funds in its possession as Property Trustee since the date of its last report and any action taken by
the Property Trustee in the performance of its duties hereunder which it has not previously reported and which in its opinion materially affects the Trust Securities.



-49-



---

(b) In addition the Property Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Property
Trustee and its actions under this Trust Agreement as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto.



(c) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Property Trustee with the
Depositor.



SECTION 8.16. Reports to the Property
Trustee.



The Depositor and the Administrators on behalf
of the Issuer Trust shall provide to the Property Trustee such documents, reports and information as required by Section 314 of the Trust Indenture Act (if any) and the compliance certificate required by Section 314(a) of the Trust Indenture Act in
the form, in the manner and at the times required by Section 314 of the Trust Indenture Act. The Depositor and the Administrators shall annually file with the Property Trustee a certificate specifying whether such Person is in compliance with all
the terms and covenants applicable to such Person hereunder.



SECTION 8.17.Evidence of Compliance with Conditions Precedent.



Each of the Depositor and the Administrators on behalf of the Issuer Trust shall provide to the Property Trustee such evidence of compliance with any conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Trust Agreement
that relate to any of the matters set forth in Section 314(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. Any certificate or opinion required to be given by an officer pursuant to Section 314(c)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act shall be given in the form of an
Officers Certificate.



SECTION 8.18. Number of Issuer
Trustees.



(a) The number of Issuer Trustees shall be two.
The Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person, in which case, the number of Issuer Trustees may be one.



(b) If an Issuer Trustee ceases to hold office for any reason, a vacancy shall occur. The vacancy shall be filled with an Issuer Trustee appointed in
accordance with Section 8.10.



(c) The death, resignation,
retirement, removal, bankruptcy, incompetence or incapacity to perform the duties of an Issuer Trustee shall not operate to dissolve, terminate or annul the Issuer Trust or terminate this Trust Agreement.



SECTION 8.19. Delegation of Power.



(a) Any Administrator may, by power of attorney consistent with applicable
law, delegate to any other natural person over the age of 21 his or her power for the purpose of executing any documents contemplated in Section 2.7(a) or making any governmental filing; and



(b) The Administrators shall have power to delegate from time to time to such
of their number the doing of such things and the execution of such instruments either in the name of the Issuer Trust or the names of the Administrators or otherwise as the Administrators may deem expedient, to the extent such delegation is not
prohibited by applicable law or contrary to the provisions of this Trust Agreement.



-50-



---

SECTION 8.20. Appointment of Administrators.



(a) The Administrators shall be appointed by the Holder of the Common
Securities and may be removed by the Holder of the Common Securities or may resign at any time. Upon any resignation or removal, the Holder of the Common Securities shall appoint a successor Administrator. Each Administrator shall execute this Trust
Agreement thereby agreeing to comply with, and be legally bound by, all of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Trust Agreement. If at any time there is no Administrator, the Property Trustee or any Holder who has been a Holder of Trust
Securities for at least six months may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of one or more Administrators.

Administrators by this Trust Agreement.



(c) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, or any other provision of this Trust Agreement, in the event any Administrator who is a natural person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Holder of the Common Securities, incompetent, or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such

wound-up and liquidated by the Property Trustee as expeditiously as the Property Trustee determines to be possible by distributing, after paying or making reasonable provision to pay all claims and obligations of the Issuer Trust in accordance with
Section 3808(e) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, to each Holder a Like Amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures, subject to Section 9.4(d). Notice of liquidation shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed
not later than 15 nor more than 45 days prior to the Liquidation Date to each Holder of Trust Securities at such Holders address appearing in the Securities Register. All notices of liquidation shall:



(i) state the Liquidation Date;



(ii) state that, from and after the Liquidation Date, the
Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and any Trust Securities Certificates not surrendered for exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Junior Subordinated Debentures; and

---

(iii) provide such information with respect to the mechanics by which Holders may
exchange Trust Securities Certificates for Junior Subordinated Debentures, or if Section 9.4(d) applies receive a Liquidation Distribution, as the Administrators or the Property Trustee shall deem appropriate.



(b) Except where Section 9.2(c) or 9.4(d) applies, in order to effect the
liquidation of the Issuer Trust and distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debentures to Holders, the Property Trustee shall establish a record date for such distribution (which shall be not more than 30 days prior to the Liquidation Date) and,
either itself acting as exchange agent or through the appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish such procedures as it shall deem appropriate to effect the distribution of Junior Subordinated Debentures in exchange for the Outstanding
Trust Securities Certificates.



(c) Except where Section 9.2(c)
or 9.4(d) applies, after the Liquidation Date, (i) the Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be Outstanding, (ii) the Clearing Agency for the Preferred Securities or its nominee, as the registered Holder of the Global Preferred Securities
Certificates, shall receive a registered global certificate or certificates representing the Junior Subordinated Debentures to be delivered upon such distribution with respect to Preferred Securities held by the Clearing Agency or its nominee, and,
(iii) any Trust Securities Certificates not held by the Clearing Agency for the Preferred Securities or its nominee as specified in clause (ii) above will be deemed to represent Junior Subordinated Debentures having a principal amount equal to the
stated Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities represented thereby and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on such Trust Securities until such certificates are presented to the
Securities Registrar for transfer or reissuance.



(d) If,
notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.4, whether because of an order for dissolution entered by a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, distribution of the Junior Subordinated Debentures is not practical, or if any Early
Termination Event specified in clause (c) of Section 9.2 occurs, the Issuer Trust shall be dissolved, and the Trust Property shall be liquidated, by the Property Trustee in such manner as the Property Trustee determines. In such event, on the date
of the dissolution of the Issuer Trust, Holders will be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Issuer Trust available for distribution to Holders, after paying or making reasonable provision to pay all claims and obligations of the Issuer
Trust in accordance with Section 3808(e) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, an amount equal to the aggregate of Liquidation Amount per Trust Security plus accumulated and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the
Liquidation Distribution). If, upon any such dissolution, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Issuer Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then,
subject to the next succeeding sentence, the amounts payable by the Issuer Trust on the Trust Securities shall be paid on a pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation Amounts). The Holder of the Common Securities will be entitled to receive Liquidation
Distributions upon any such dissolution, pro rata (determined as aforesaid) with Holders of Preferred Securities, except that, if a Debenture Event of Default in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2) of the Indenture has occurred and is continuing, the Preferred
Securities shall have a priority over the Common Securities as provided in Section 4.3.

SECTION 9.5. Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of the Issuer Trust.



The Issuer Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate,
amalgamate, or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to, any entity, except pursuant to this Section 9.5 or Section 9.4. At the request of the Holder of the Common Securities, and with
the consent of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, but without the consent of the Issuer Trustees, the Issuer Trust may merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by or convey,
transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such under the laws of any state; provided, however, that (i) such successor entity either (a) expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Issuer
Trust with respect to the Preferred Securities or (b) substitutes for the Preferred Securities other securities having substantially the same terms as the Preferred Securities (the Successor Preferred Securities) so long as the Successor
Preferred Securities have the same priority as the Preferred Securities with respect to distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise, (ii) a trustee of such successor entity possessing the same powers and duties as the
Property Trustee is appointed to hold the Junior Subordinated Debentures, (iii) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not cause the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Preferred
Securities) to be downgraded by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization, (iv) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of
the holders of the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Preferred Securities) in any material respect, (v) such successor entity has a purpose substantially identical to that of the Issuer Trust, (vi) prior to such merger, consolidation,
amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Issuer Trust has received an Opinion of Counsel from independent counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that (a) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement,
conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights preferences and privileges of the holders of the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Preferred Securities) in any material respect, and (b) following such merger,
consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, neither the Issuer Trust nor such successor entity will be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act and (vii) the Depositor or
any permitted transferee to whom it has transferred the Common Securities hereunder owns all of the common securities of such successor entity and guarantees the obligations of such successor entity under the Preferred Securities or Successor
Preferred Securities at least to the extent provided by the Guarantee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer Trust shall not, except with the consent of Holders of 100% in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, consolidate, amalgamate,
merge with or into, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to, any other entity or permit any other entity to consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or replace it if such
consolidation, amalgamation, merger, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease would cause the Issuer Trust or the successor entity to be taxable other than as a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes.

purposes.

EXHIBIT C



[IF THE PREFERRED SECURITIES CERTIFICATE IS TO BE A GLOBAL PREFERRED SECURITIES CERTIFICATE, INSERT:] This Preferred Securities Certificate is a Global Preferred
Securities Certificate within the meaning of the Trust Agreement hereinafter referred to and is registered in the name of a Depositary or a nominee of a Depositary. This Preferred Securities Certificate is exchangeable for Preferred Securities
Certificates registered in the name of a person other than the Depositary or its nominee only in the limited circumstances described in the Trust Agreement and may not be transferred except as a whole by the Depositary to a nominee of the Depositary
or by a nominee of the Depositary to the Depositary or another nominee of the Depositary, except in the limited circumstances described in the Trust Agreement.



Unless this Preferred Securities Certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York Corporation
(DTC), to FCB/SC Capital Trust II or its agent for registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any Preferred Securities Certificate issued is registered in the name of Cede & Co. or such other name as is requested by an
authorized representative of DTC (and any payment is made to Cede & Co. or to such other entity as is requested by an authorized representative of DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO A PERSON IS
WRONGFUL inasmuch as the registered owner hereof, Cede & Co., has an interest herein.



The Preferred Securities evidenced hereby, and any Junior Subordinated Debentures issuable in connection therewith, have not been registered under
