WITNESSETH:


 


WHEREAS, for its lawful
corporate purposes, the Company has duly authorized the issuance of its Fixed/Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest
Debentures due 2037 (the “Debentures”) under this Indenture to provide, among other things, for the execution
and authentication, delivery and administration thereof, and the Company has duly authorized the execution of this Indenture;
and


 


WHEREAS, all acts and things
necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement according to its terms, have been done and performed;


 


NOW, THEREFORE, This Indenture
Witnesseth:


 


In consideration of the
premises, and the purchase of the Debentures by the holders thereof, the Company covenants and agrees with the Trustee for the
equal and proportionate benefit of the respective holders from time to time of the Debentures as follows:


 


ARTICLE I.


DEFINITIONS


 


Section 1.1.          Definitions.
The terms defined in this Section 1.1 (except as herein otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires)
for all purposes of this Indenture and of any indenture supplemental hereto shall have the respective meanings specified in this
Section 1.1. All accounting terms used herein and not expressly defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles and the term “generally accepted accounting principles” means such accounting
principles as are generally accepted in the United States at the time of any computation. The words “herein,” “hereof”
and “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Indenture as a whole and not to any particular Article,
Section or other subdivision.


 


“Acceleration Event of Default”
means an Event of Default under Section 5.1(a), (d), (e) or (f), whatever the reason for such Acceleration Event of Default and
whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of
any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body.


 


“Additional Interest”
has the meaning set forth in Section 2.11.


 


“Additional Junior
Indebtedness” means, without duplication and other than the Debentures, any indebtedness, liabilities or obligations
of the Company, or any Subsidiary of the Company, under debt securities (or guarantees in respect of debt securities) initially
issued after the date of this Indenture to any trust, or a trustee of a trust, partnership or other entity affiliated with the
Company that is, directly or indirectly, a finance subsidiary (as such term is defined in Rule 3a-5 under the Investment Company
Act of 1940) or other financing vehicle of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company in connection with the issuance by that
entity of preferred securities or other securities that are eligible to qualify for Tier 1 capital treatment (or its then equivalent)
for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve, as then in effect and applicable to the Company (or, if
the Company is not a bank holding company, such guidelines applied to the Company as if the Company were subject to such guidelines);
provided, however, that the inability of the Company to treat all or any portion of the Additional Junior Indebtedness
as Tier 1 capital shall not disqualify it as Additional Junior Indebtedness if such inability results from the Company having
cumulative preferred stock, minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, or any other class of security or interest which
the Federal Reserve now or may hereafter accord Tier 1 capital treatment (including the Debentures) in excess of the amount which
may qualify for treatment as Tier 1 capital under applicable capital adequacy guidelines.

administrative pronouncement or action or decision interpreting or applying such laws, rules or regulations, which amendment or
change is effective or which pronouncement, action or decision is announced on or after the date of original issuance of the Debentures,
there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Company will not, within 90 days of the date of such opinion, be entitled to
treat an amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the Capital Securities as “Tier 1 Capital” (or its then
equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve, as then in effect and applicable to the Company
(or if the Company is not a bank holding company or otherwise is not subject to the Federal Reserve’s risk-based capital
adequacy guidelines, such guidelines applied to the Company as if the Company were subject to such guidelines); provided,
however, that the inability of the Company to treat all or any portion of the liquidation amount of the Capital Securities
as Tier l Capital shall not constitute the basis for a Capital Treatment Event, if such inability results from the Company having
cumulative preferred stock, minority interests in consolidated subsidiaries, or any other class of security or interest which
the Federal Reserve or OTS, as applicable, may now or hereafter accord Tier 1 Capital treatment in excess of the amount which
may now or hereafter qualify for treatment as Tier 1 Capital under applicable capital adequacy guidelines; provided further,
however, that the distribution of Debentures in connection with the liquidation of the Trust shall not in and of itself
constitute a Capital Treatment Event unless such liquidation shall have occurred in connection with a Tax Event or an Investment
Company Event.

the Debentures matured on the Interest Payment Date in December 2012) discounted to the Special Redemption Date on a quarterly
basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate, plus (B) accrued and unpaid interest (including
Additional Interest) on the Debentures to such Special Redemption Date, or (b) if the Special Redemption Date occurs on or after
the Interest Payment Date in December 2012, 100% of the principal amount of the Debentures being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid
interest (including any Additional Interest) on such Debentures to the Special Redemption Date.


 


“Subsidiary”
means with respect to any Person, (i) any corporation at least a majority of the outstanding voting stock of which is owned, directly

any general partnership, joint venture or similar entity, at least a majority of the outstanding partnership or similar interests
of which shall at the time be owned by such Person, or by one or more of its Subsidiaries, or by such Person and one or more of
its Subsidiaries and (iii) any limited partnership of which such Person or any of its Subsidiaries is a general partner. For the
purposes of this definition, “voting stock” means shares, interests, participations or other equivalents in the equity
interest (however designated) in such Person having ordinary voting power for the election of a majority of the directors (or the
equivalent) of such Person, other than shares, interests, participations or other equivalents having such power only by reason
of the occurrence of a contingency.


 


“Tax Event”

(including any private letter ruling, technical advice memorandum, field service advice, regulatory procedure, notice or announcement,
including any notice or announcement of intent to adopt such procedures or regulations) (an “Administrative Action”)
or judicial decision interpreting or applying such laws or regulations, regardless of whether such Administrative Action or judicial
decision is issued to or in connection with a proceeding involving the Company or the Trust and whether or not subject to review
or appeal, which amendment, clarification, change, Administrative Action or decision is enacted, promulgated or announced, in
each case on or after the date of original issuance of the Debentures, there is more than an insubstantial risk that: (i) the
Trust is, or will be within 90 days of the date of such opinion, subject to United States federal income tax with respect to income
received or accrued on the Debentures; (ii) interest payable by the Company on the Debentures is not, or within 90 days of the
date of such opinion, will not be, deductible by the Company, in whole or in part, for United States federal income tax purposes;
or (iii) the Trust is, or will be within 90 days of the date of such opinion, subject to more than a de minimis amount of other
taxes, duties or other governmental charges.

weekly by the Federal Reserve and which establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to constant
maturity under the caption “Treasury Constant Maturities,” for the maturity corresponding to the Fixed Rate Period
Remaining Life (if no maturity is within three months before or after the Fixed Rate Period Remaining Life, yields for the two
published maturities most closely corresponding to the Fixed Rate Period Remaining Life shall be determined and the Treasury Rate
shall be interpolated or extrapolated from such yields on a straight-line basis, rounding to the nearest month) or (ii) if such
release (or any successor release) is not published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain such yields,
the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price
for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for
such Special Redemption Date. The Treasury Rate shall be calculated by the Quotation Agent on the third Business Day preceding
the Special Redemption Date.

issuing Capital Securities in connection with the issuance of Debentures under this Indenture, of which the Company is the sponsor.

ARTICLE II.


DEBENTURES


 


Section 2.1.       Authentication
and Dating. Upon the execution and delivery of this Indenture, or from time to time thereafter, Debentures in an aggregate
principal amount not in excess of $7,217,000.00 may be executed and delivered by the Company to the Trustee for authentication,
and the Trustee, upon receipt of a written authentication order from the Company, shall thereupon authenticate and make available
for delivery said Debentures to or upon the written order of the Company, signed by its Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief
Executive Officer, Vice Chairman, the President, one of its Managing Directors or one of its Vice Presidents without any further
action by the Company hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Trustee shall be fully protected
in relying upon the aforementioned authentication order and written order in authenticating and delivering said Debentures. In
authenticating such Debentures, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture in relation to such Debentures,
the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and (subject to Section 6.1) shall be fully protected in relying upon:


 


(a)          a
copy of any Board Resolution or Board Resolutions relating thereto and, if applicable, an appropriate record of any action taken
pursuant to such resolution, in each case certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company, as the case may
be; and


 


(b)          an
Opinion of Counsel prepared in accordance with Section 14.6 which shall also state:


 


(1)           that
such Debentures, when authenticated and delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in each case in the manner and subject
to any conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, subject
to or limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, conservatorship, receivership, moratorium and other statutory
or decisional laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights or the reorganization of financial institutions (including,
without limitation, preference and fraudulent conveyance or transfer laws), heretofore or hereafter enacted or in effect, affecting
the rights of creditors generally; and


 






    	 	8	 



     


    

 


(2)          that
all laws and requirements in respect of the execution and delivery by the Company of the Debentures have been complied with and
that authentication and delivery of the Debentures by the Trustee will not violate the terms of this Indenture.


 


The Trustee shall have
the right to decline to authenticate and deliver any Debentures under this Section if the Trustee, being advised in writing by
counsel, determines that such action may not lawfully be taken or if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in good faith shall determine
that such action would expose the Trustee to personal liability to existing holders.


 


The definitive Debentures
shall be typed, printed, lithographed or engraved on steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner, all as determined
by the officers executing such Debentures, as evidenced by their execution of such Debentures.


 


Section 2.2.        Form
of Trustee’s Certificate of Authentication. The Trustee’s certificate of authentication on all Debentures
shall be in substantially the following form:


 


This is one of the Debentures
referred to in the within-mentioned Indenture.


 


WILMINGTON TRUST COMPANY,
as Trustee


 


	 	By	 	 
	 	
        Authorized Signer
	 


 


Section 2.3.
       Form and Denomination of Debentures. The Debentures shall be substantially
in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto. The Debentures shall be in registered, certificated form without coupons and in minimum
denominations of $100,000.00 and any multiple of $1,000.00 in excess thereof. Any attempted transfer of the Debentures in a block
having an aggregate principal amount of less than $100,000.00 shall be deemed to be void and of no legal effect whatsoever. Any
such purported transferee shall be deemed not to be a holder of such Debentures for any purpose, including, but not limited to
the receipt of payments on such Debentures, and such purported transferee shall be deemed to have no interest whatsoever in such
Debentures. The Debentures shall be numbered, lettered, or otherwise distinguished in such manner or in accordance with such plans
as the officers executing the same may determine with the approval of the Trustee as evidenced by the execution and authentication
thereof.


 


Section 2.4.       Execution of Debentures. The Debentures shall be signed in the name and on behalf of the Company by the manual
or facsimile signature of its Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, Vice Chairman, President, one of its
Managing Directors or one of its Executive Vice Presidents, Senior Vice Presidents or Vice Presidents. Only such Debentures as
shall bear thereon a certificate of authentication substantially in the form herein before recited, executed by the Trustee or
the Authenticating Agent by the manual signature of an authorized signer, shall be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture or
be valid or obligatory for any purpose. Such certificate by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent upon any Debenture executed
by the Company shall be conclusive evidence that the Debenture so authenticated has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder
and that the holder is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.


 






    	 	9	 



     


    

 


In case any officer of
the Company who shall have signed any of the Debentures shall cease to be such officer before the Debentures so signed shall have
been authenticated and delivered by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, or disposed of by the Company, such Debentures nevertheless
may be authenticated and delivered or disposed of as though the Person who signed such Debentures had not ceased to be such officer
of the Company; and any Debenture may be signed on behalf of the Company by such Persons as, at the actual date of the execution
of such Debenture, shall be the proper officers of the Company, although at the date of the execution of this Indenture any such
person was not such an officer.


 


Every Debenture shall be
dated the date of its authentication.


 


Section 2.5.       
Exchange and Registration of Transfer of Debentures. The Company shall cause to be kept, at the office or agency
maintained for the purpose of registration of transfer and for exchange as provided in Section 3.2, a register (the “Debenture
Register”) for the Debentures issued hereunder in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the
Company shall provide for the registration and transfer of all Debentures as in this Article II provided. The Debenture Register
shall be in written form or in any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time.


 


Debentures to be exchanged
may be surrendered at the Principal Office of the Trustee or at any office or agency to be maintained by the Company for such purpose
as provided in Section 3.2, and the Company shall execute, the Company or the Trustee shall register and the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in exchange therefor the Debenture or Debentures which the Securityholder
making the exchange shall be entitled to receive. Upon due presentment for registration of transfer of any Debenture at the Principal
Office of the Trustee or at any office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose as provided in Section 3.2, the Company
shall execute, the Company or the Trustee shall register and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make
available for delivery in the name of the transferee or transferees a new Debenture for a like aggregate principal amount. Registration
or registration of transfer of any Debenture by the Trustee or by any agent of the Company appointed pursuant to Section 3.2, and
delivery of such Debenture, shall be deemed to complete the registration or registration of transfer of such Debenture.


 


All Debentures presented
for registration of transfer or for exchange or payment shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company
and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent duly executed by the holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing.


 


No service charge shall
be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Debentures, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.


 


The Company or the Trustee
shall not be required to exchange or register a transfer of any Debenture for a period of 15 days next preceding the date of selection
of Debentures for redemption.


 


Notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, Debentures may not be transferred except in compliance with the restricted securities legend set forth
below, unless otherwise determined by the Company, upon the advice of counsel expert in securities law, in accordance with applicable
law:

THIS
SECURITY WILL BE ISSUED AND MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN BLOCKS HAVING AN AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF NOT LESS THAN $100,000.00
AND MULTIPLES OF $1,000.00 IN EXCESS THEREOF. ANY ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF THIS SECURITY IN A BLOCK HAVING AN AGGREGATE PRINCIPAL
AMOUNT OF LESS THAN $100,000.00 SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE VOID AND OF NO LEGAL EFFECT WHATSOEVER.


 


THE
HOLDER OF THIS SECURITY AGREES THAT IT WILL COMPLY WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTIONS.


 


Section 2.6.       Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Debentures. In case any Debenture shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the
Company shall execute, and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, a new Debenture bearing a number
not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated Debenture, or in lieu of and in substitution
for the Debenture so destroyed, lost or stolen. In every case the applicant for a substituted Debenture shall furnish to the Company
and the Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, and, in every case of destruction,
loss or theft, the applicant shall also furnish to the Company and the Trustee evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction,
loss or theft of such Debenture and of the ownership thereof.


 


The Trustee may authenticate
any such substituted Debenture and deliver the same upon the written request or authorization of any officer of the Company. Upon
the issuance of any substituted Debenture, the Company may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. In case any Debenture which has matured
or is about to mature or has been called for redemption in full shall become mutilated or be destroyed, lost or stolen, the Company
may, instead of issuing a substitute Debenture, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the
case of a mutilated Debenture) if the applicant for such payment shall furnish to the Company and the Trustee such security or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless and, in case of destruction, loss or theft, evidence satisfactory
to the Company and to the Trustee of the destruction, loss or theft of such Debenture and of the ownership thereof.


 


Every substituted Debenture
issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 2.6 by virtue of the fact that any such Debenture is destroyed, lost or stolen
shall constitute an additional contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Debenture shall
be found at any time, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all
other Debentures duly issued hereunder. All Debentures shall be held and owned upon the express condition that, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, the foregoing provisions are exclusive with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Debentures and shall preclude any and all other rights or remedies notwithstanding any law or statute existing or hereafter
enacted to the contrary with respect to the replacement or payment of negotiable instruments or other securities without their
surrender.


 


Section 2.7.       Temporary
Debentures. Pending the preparation of definitive Debentures, the Company may execute and the Trustee shall authenticate
and make available for delivery temporary Debentures that are typed, printed or lithographed. Temporary Debentures shall be issuable
in any authorized denomination, and substantially in the form of the definitive Debentures in lieu of which they are issued but
with such omissions, insertions and variations as may be appropriate for temporary Debentures, all as may be determined by the
Company. Every such temporary Debenture shall be executed by the Company and be authenticated by the Trustee upon the same conditions
and in substantially the same manner, and with the same effect, as the definitive Debentures. Without unreasonable delay the Company
will execute and deliver to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent definitive Debentures and thereupon any or all temporary Debentures
may be surrendered in exchange therefor, at the principal corporate trust office of the Trustee or at any office or agency maintained
by the Company for such purpose as provided in Section 3.2, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and
make available for delivery in exchange for such temporary Debentures a like aggregate principal amount of such definitive Debentures.
Such exchange shall be made by the Company at its own expense and without any charge therefor except that in case of any such
exchange involving a registration of transfer the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto. Until so exchanged, the temporary Debentures shall in all respects
be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Debentures authenticated and delivered hereunder.


 






    	 	12	 



     


    

 


Section 2.8.       
Payment of Interest and Additional Interest. Interest at the Interest Rate and any Additional Interest on any
Debenture that is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Debentures shall be paid
to the Person in whose name said Debenture (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
regular record date for such interest installment except that interest and any Additional Interest payable on the Maturity Date
shall be paid to the Person to whom principal is paid.


 


Each Debenture shall bear
interest for the period beginning on (and including) the date of original issuance and ending on (but excluding) the Interest
Payment Date in December 2012 at a rate per annum of 6.388%, and shall bear interest for each successive Distribution Period beginning
on or after the Interest Payment Date in December 2012 at a rate per annum equal to the 3-Month LIBOR, determined as described
in Section 2.10, plus 1.50% (the “Coupon Rate”), applied to the principal amount thereof, until the principal
thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under
applicable law (without duplication) on any overdue installment of interest (including Additional Interest) at the Interest Rate
in effect for each applicable period compounded quarterly. Interest shall be payable (subject to any relevant Extension Period)
quarterly in arrears on each Interest Payment Date with the first installment of interest to be paid on the Interest Payment Date
in December 2007.


 


Any interest on any Debenture,
including Additional Interest, that is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
(herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holder on the relevant
regular record date by virtue of having been such holder; and such Defaulted Interest shall be paid by the Company to the Persons
in whose names such Debentures (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on a special
record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner: the Company shall notify
the Trustee in writing at least 25 days prior to the date of the proposed payment of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed
to be paid on each such Debenture and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make
arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited
to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the
Trustee shall fix a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall not be more than 15 nor less than
10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of
the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such special record date and, in the name and at the expense
of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record date therefor to
be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Securityholder at its address as it appears in the Debenture Register, not less
than 10 days prior to such special record date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the special record
date therefor having been mailed as aforesaid, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names such Debentures
(or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such special record date and shall be no longer payable.


 






    	 	13	 



     


    

 


The Company may make payment
of any Defaulted Interest on any Debentures in any other lawful manner after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the
proposed payment method; provided, however, the Trustee in its sole discretion deems such payment method to be practical.


 


Any interest (including
Additional Interest) scheduled to become payable on an Interest Payment Date occurring during an Extension Period shall not be
Defaulted Interest and shall be payable on such other date as may be specified in the terms of such Debentures.


 


The term “regular
record date” as used in this Section shall mean the close of business on the 15th Business Day preceding the applicable Interest
Payment Date.


 


Subject to the foregoing
provisions of this Section, each Debenture delivered under this Indenture upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or
in lieu of any other Debenture shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such
other Debenture.


 


Section 2.9.       Cancellation
of Debentures Paid, etc. All Debentures surrendered for the purpose of payment, redemption, exchange or registration of
transfer, shall, if surrendered to the Company or any paying agent, be surrendered to the Trustee and promptly canceled by it,
or, if surrendered to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent, shall be promptly canceled by it, and no Debentures shall be issued
in lieu thereof except as expressly permitted by any of the provisions of this Indenture. All Debentures canceled by any Authenticating
Agent shall be delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall destroy all canceled Debentures unless the Company otherwise directs
the Trustee in writing. If the Company shall acquire any of the Debentures, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption
or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Debentures unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for
cancellation.


 


Section 2.10.      Computation
of Interest. The amount of interest payable (i) for any Distribution Period commencing on or after the date of original
issuance but before the Interest Payment Date in December 2012 will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months, and (ii) for the Distribution Period commencing on the Interest Payment Date in December 2012 and each succeeding Distribution
Period will be calculated by applying the Interest Rate to the principal amount outstanding at the commencement of the Distribution
Period on the basis of the actual number of days in the Distribution Period concerned divided by 360. All percentages resulting
from any calculations on the Debentures will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point,
with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655),
and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation will be rounded to the nearest cent (with one-half cent being
rounded upward)).


 


(a)         
“3-Month LIBOR” means the London interbank offered interest rate for three-month, U.S. dollar deposits determined
by the Trustee in the following order of priority:


 


(1)          the
rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity that appears on Reuters Page
LIBOR01 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date (as defined below). “Reuters Page LIBOR01”
means the display designated as “LIBOR01” on Reuters or such other page as may replace Reuters Page LIBOR01 on that
service or such other service or services as may be nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as the information vendor
for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits;


 




    	 	14	 



     


    

 


(2)          if
such rate cannot be identified on the related Determination Date, the Trustee will request the principal London offices of four
leading banks in the London interbank market to provide such banks’ offered quotations (expressed as percentages per annum)
to prime banks in the London interbank market for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity as of 11:00 a.m. (London time)
on such Determination Date. If at least two quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations;


 


(3)          if
fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested in clause (2) above, the Trustee will request four major New York City
banks to provide such banks’ offered quotations (expressed as percentages per annum) to leading European banks for loans
in U.S. dollars as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date. If at least two such quotations are provided, 3-Month
LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations; and


 


(4)          if
fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested in clause (3) above, 3-Month LIBOR will be a 3-Month LIBOR determined
with respect to the Distribution Period immediately preceding such current Distribution Period.


 


If the rate for U.S. dollar
deposits having a three-month maturity that initially appears on Reuters Page LIBOR01 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related
Determination Date is superseded on the Reuters Page LIBOR01 by a corrected rate by 12:00 noon (London time) on such Determination
Date, then the corrected rate as so substituted on the applicable page will be the applicable 3-Month LIBOR for such Determination
Date.


 


(b)          The
Interest Rate for any Distribution Period will at no time be higher than the maximum rate then permitted by New York law as the
same may be modified by United States law.


 


(c)          “Determination Date” means the date that is two London Banking Days (i.e., a business day in which dealings
in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market) preceding the particular Distribution Period for which
a Coupon Rate is being determined.


 


(d)          The
Trustee shall notify the Company, the Institutional Trustee and any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system on which
the Capital Securities are listed, of the Coupon Rate and the Determination Date for each Distribution Period, in each case as
soon as practicable after the determination thereof but in no event later than the thirtieth (30th) day of the relevant Distribution
Period. Failure to notify the Company, the Institutional Trustee or any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system, or
any defect in said notice, shall not affect the obligation of the Company to make payment on the Debentures at the applicable Coupon
Rate. Any error in the calculation of the Coupon Rate by the Trustee may be corrected at any time by notice delivered as above
provided. Upon the request of a holder of a Debenture, the Trustee shall provide the Coupon Rate then in effect and, if determined,
the Coupon Rate for the next Distribution Period.


 


(e)          Subject
to the corrective rights set forth above, all certificates, communications, opinions, determinations, calculations, quotations
and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes of the provisions relating to the payment and calculation of
interest on the Debentures and distributions on the Capital Securities by the Trustee or the Institutional Trustee will (in the
absence of willful default, bad faith and manifest error) be final, conclusive and binding on the Trust, the Company and all of
the holders of the Debentures and the Capital Securities, and no liability shall (in the absence of willful default, bad faith
or manifest error) attach to the Trustee or the Institutional Trustee in connection with the exercise or non-exercise by either
of them or their respective powers, duties and discretion.

Section 2.11.       Extension
of Interest Payment Period. So long as no Acceleration Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall
have the right, from time to time, and without causing an Event of Default, to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by
extending the interest payment period on the Debentures at any time and from time to time during the term of the Debentures, for
up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods (each such extended interest payment period, an “Extension Period”),
during which Extension Period no interest (including Additional Interest) shall be due and payable (except any Additional Sums
that may be due and payable). No Extension Period may end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date. During an Extension Period,
interest will continue to accrue on the Debentures, and interest on such accrued interest will accrue at an annual rate equal
to the Interest Rate in effect for such Extension Period, compounded quarterly from the date such interest would have been payable
were it not for the Extension Period, to the extent permitted by law (such interest referred to herein as “Additional
Interest”). At the end of any such Extension Period the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the
Debentures (together with Additional Interest thereon); provided, however, that no Extension Period may extend beyond
the Maturity Date; provided further, however, that during any such Extension Period, the Company shall
not and shall not permit any Affiliate to (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire,
or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s or such Affiliate’s capital stock (other than
payments of dividends or distributions to the Company or payments of dividends from direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company
to their parent corporations, which also shall be direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company) or make any guarantee payments
with respect to the foregoing or (ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase
or redeem any debt securities of the Company or any Affiliate that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in interest
to the Debentures (other than, with respect to clauses (i) or (ii) above, (a) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of
shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with
or for the benefit of one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in connection with a dividend reinvestment or
stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of the Company (or securities convertible
into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable
Extension Period, (b) as a result of any exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or
any capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock or of any class
or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, (c) the purchase of
fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such
capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any stockholders’
rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any stockholders’ rights plan, or the redemption or
repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (e) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend
stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend
is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock and any cash payments in lieu of fractional shares issued
in connection therewith, (f) payments of principal or interest on debt securities or payments of cash dividends or distributions
on any capital stock issued by an Affiliate that is not, in whole or in part, a subsidiary of the Company (or any redemptions,
repurchases or liquidation payments on such stock or securities), or (g) payments under the Capital Securities Guarantee). Prior
to the termination of any Extension Period, the Company may further extend such period, provided that such period together with
all such previous and further consecutive extensions thereof shall not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly periods, or extend beyond
the Maturity Date. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and Additional
Interest, the Company may commence a new Extension Period, subject to the foregoing requirements. No interest or Additional Interest
shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise
have been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest to the extent permitted by applicable law.
The Company must give the Trustee notice of its election to begin or extend an Extension Period by the close of business at least
15 Business Days prior to the Interest Payment Date with respect to which interest on the Debentures would have been payable except
for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period. The Trustee shall give notice of the Company’s election to begin
a new Extension Period to the Securityholders.

Section 2.12.     CUSIP
Numbers. The Company in issuing the Debentures may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if
so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP numbers in notices of redemption as a convenience to Securityholders; provided, however,
that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Debentures
or as contained in any notice of a redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers printed
on the Debentures, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Company will
promptly notify the Trustee in writing of any change in the CUSIP numbers.


 


ARTICLE III.


PARTICULAR COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY


 


Section 3.1.        Payment
of Principal, Premium and Interest; Agreed Treatment of the Debentures.


 


(a)           The
Company covenants and agrees that it will duly and punctually pay or cause to be paid the principal of and premium, if any, and
interest and any Additional Interest and other payments on the Debentures at the place, at the respective times and in the manner
provided in this Indenture and the Debentures. Each installment of interest on the Debentures may be paid (i) by mailing checks
for such interest payable to the order of the holders of Debentures entitled thereto as they appear on the registry books of the
Company if a request for a wire transfer has not been received by the Company or (ii) by wire transfer to any account with a banking
institution located in the United States designated in writing by such Person to the paying agent no later than the related record
date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the holder of this Debenture is the Institutional Trustee, the payment of the principal
of and interest on this Debenture will be made in immediately available funds at such place and to such account as may be designated
by the Institutional Trustee.


 


(b)          The
Company will treat the Debentures as indebtedness, and the amounts payable in respect of the principal amount of such Debentures
as interest, for all United States federal income tax purposes. All payments in respect of such Debentures will be made free and
clear of United States withholding tax to any beneficial owner thereof that has provided an Internal Revenue Service Form W8 BEN
(or any substitute or successor form) establishing its non-United States status for United States federal income tax purposes.


 


(c)          As
of the date of this Indenture, the Company has no present intention to exercise its right under Section 2.11 to defer payments
of interest on the Debentures by commencing an Extension Period.


 


(d)          As
of the date of this Indenture, the Company believes that the likelihood that it would exercise its right under Section 2.11 to
defer payments of interest on the Debentures by commencing an Extension Period at any time during which the Debentures are outstanding
is remote because of the restrictions that would be imposed on the Company’s ability to declare or pay dividends or distributions
on, or to redeem, purchase or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of its outstanding equity and on the Company’s
ability to make any payments of principal of or interest on, or repurchase or redeem, any of its debt securities that rank pari
passu in all respects with (or junior in interest to) the Debentures.


 






    	 	17	 



     


    

 


Section 3.2.       Offices
for Notices and Payments, etc. So long as any of the Debentures remain outstanding, the Company will maintain in Wilmington,
Delaware, an office or agency where the Debentures may be presented for payment, an office or agency where the Debentures may
be presented for registration of transfer and for exchange as in this Indenture provided and an office or agency where notices
and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Debentures or of this Indenture may be served. The Company will give to the
Trustee written notice of the location of any such office or agency and of any change of location thereof. Until otherwise designated
from time to time by the Company in a notice to the Trustee, or specified as contemplated by Section 2.5, such office or agency
for all of the above purposes shall be the office or agency of the Trustee. In case the Company shall fail to maintain any such
office or agency in Wilmington, Delaware, or shall fail to give such notice of the location or of any change in the location thereof,
presentations and demands may be made and notices may be served at the Principal Office of the Trustee.


 


In addition to any such
office or agency, the Company may from time to time designate one or more offices or agencies outside Wilmington, Delaware, where
the Debentures may be presented for registration of transfer and for exchange in the manner provided in this Indenture, and the
Company may from time to time rescind such designation, as the Company may deem desirable or expedient; provided, however,
that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Company of its obligation to maintain any such office or
agency in Wilmington, Delaware, for the purposes above mentioned. The Company will give to the Trustee prompt written notice of
any such designation or rescission thereof.


 


Section 3.3.       Appointments
to Fill Vacancies in Trustee’s Office. The Company, whenever necessary to avoid or fill a vacancy in the office
of Trustee, will appoint, in the manner provided in Section 6.9, a Trustee, so that there shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder.


 


Section 3.4.       
Provision as to Paying Agent.


 


(a)          If
the Company shall appoint a paying agent other than the Trustee, it will cause such paying agent to execute and deliver to the
Trustee an instrument in which such agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provision of this Section 3.4,


 


(1)          that
it will hold all sums held by it as such agent for the payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on
the Debentures (whether such sums have been paid to it by the Company or by any other obligor on the Debentures) in trust for the
benefit of the holders of the Debentures;


 


(2)          that
it will give the Trustee prompt written notice of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor on the Debentures) to make
any payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest, if any, on the Debentures when the same shall be due and payable;
and


 


(3)          that
it will, at any time during the continuance of any Event of Default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to
the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such paying agent.


 


(b)          If
the Company shall act as its own paying agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of and premium, if any, or
interest or other payments, if any, on the Debentures, set aside, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the holders of
the Debentures a sum sufficient to pay such principal, premium, interest or other payments so becoming due and will notify the
Trustee in writing of any failure to take such action and of any failure by the Company (or by any other obligor under the Debentures)
to make any payment of the principal of and premium, if any, or interest or other payments, if any, on the Debentures when the
same shall become due and payable.


 






    	 	18	 



     


    

 


Whenever the Company shall
have one or more paying agents for the Debentures, it will, on or prior to each due date of the principal of and premium, if any,
or interest, if any, on the Debentures, deposit with a paying agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal, premium, interest or
other payments so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto and (unless such paying
agent is the Trustee) the Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure to act.


 


(c)           Anything
in this Section 3.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the Company may, at any time, for the purpose of obtaining a satisfaction
and discharge with respect to the Debentures, or for any other reason, pay, or direct any paying agent to pay to the Trustee all
sums held in trust by the Company or any such paying agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the trusts herein contained.


 


(d)          Anything
in this Section 3.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, the agreement to hold sums in trust as provided in this Section 3.4 is subject
to Sections 12.3 and 12.4.


 


Section 3.5.       Certificate
to Trustee. The Company will deliver to the Trustee on or before 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, so long as
Debentures are outstanding hereunder, a Certificate stating that in the course of the performance by the signers of their duties
as officers of the Company they would normally have knowledge of any default during such fiscal year by the Company in the performance
of any covenants contained herein, stating whether or not they have knowledge of any such default and, if so, specifying each
such default of which the signers have knowledge and the nature and status thereof. A form of this Certificate is attached hereto
as Exhibit B.


 


Section 3.6.       Additional
Sums. If and for so long as the Trust is the holder of all Debentures and the Trust is required to pay any additional
taxes (including withholding taxes), duties, assessments or other governmental charges as a result of a Tax Event, the Company
will pay such additional amounts (“Additional Sums”) on the Debentures as shall be required so that the net
amounts received and retained by the Trust after paying taxes (including withholding taxes), duties, assessments or other governmental
charges will be equal to the amounts the Trust would have received if no such taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental
charges had been imposed. Whenever in this Indenture or the Debentures there is a reference in any context to the payment of principal
of or interest on the Debentures, such mention shall be deemed to include mention of payments of the Additional Sums provided
for in this paragraph to the extent that, in such context, Additional Sums are, were or would be payable in respect thereof pursuant
to the provisions of this paragraph and express mention of the payment of Additional Sums (if applicable) in any provisions hereof
shall not be construed as excluding Additional Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made; provided,
however, that the deferral of the payment of interest during an Extension Period pursuant to Section 2.11 shall not defer
the payment of any Additional Sums that may be due and payable.


 


Section 3.7.       Compliance
with Consolidation Provisions. The Company will not, while any of the Debentures remain outstanding, consolidate with,
or merge into, or merge into itself, or sell or convey all or substantially all of its property to any other Person unless the
provisions of Article XI hereof are complied with.


 






    	 	19	 



     


    

 


Section 3.8.       Limitation
on Dividends. If Debentures are initially issued to the Trust or a trustee of such Trust in connection with the issuance
of Trust Securities by the Trust (regardless of whether Debentures continue to be held by such Trust) and (i) there shall have
occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, (ii) the Company shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations
under the Capital Securities Guarantee, or (iii) the Company shall have given notice of its election to defer payments of interest
on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period as provided herein and such period, or any extension thereof, shall
be continuing, then the Company shall not, and shall not allow any Affiliate of the Company to, (x) declare or pay any dividends
or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s capital
stock or its Affiliates’ capital stock (other than payments of dividends or distributions to the Company or payments of
dividends from direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company to their parent corporations, which also shall be direct or indirect
subsidiaries of the Company) or make any guarantee payments with respect to the foregoing or (y) make any payment of principal
of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company or any Affiliate that
rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in interest to the Debentures (other than, with respect to clauses (x) and
(y) above, (1) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any
employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of one or more employees, officers, directors
or consultants, in connection with a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance
of capital stock of the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an
acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, if any, (2) as a result of any exchange or conversion
of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company) for any class
or series of the Company’s capital stock or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or
series of the Company’s capital stock, (3) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital
stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (4)
any declaration of a dividend in connection with any stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other
property under any stockholders’ rights plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (5) any dividend
in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants,
options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such
stock and any cash payments in lieu of fractional shares issued in connection therewith, (6) payments of principal or interest
on debt securities or payments of cash dividends or distributions on any capital stock issued by an Affiliate that is not, in
whole or in part, a subsidiary of the Company (or any redemptions, repurchases or liquidation payments on such stock or securities),
or (7) payments under the Capital Securities Guarantee).


 


Section 3.9.       Covenants
as to the Trust. For so long as the Trust Securities remain outstanding, the Company shall maintain 100% ownership of
the Common Securities; provided, however, that any permitted successor of the Company under this Indenture may succeed
to the Company’s ownership of such Common Securities. The Company, as owner of the Common Securities, shall, except in connection
with a distribution of Debentures to the holders of Trust Securities in liquidation of the Trust, the redemption of all of the
Trust Securities or certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations, each as permitted by the Declaration, cause the Trust (a)
to remain a statutory trust, (b) to otherwise continue to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax
purposes, and (c) to cause each holder of Trust Securities to be treated as owning an undivided beneficial interest in the Debentures.


 


Section 3.10.     Additional
Junior Indebtedness. The Company shall not, and it shall not cause or permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, incur,
issue or be obligated on any Additional Junior Indebtedness, either directly or indirectly, by way of guarantee, suretyship or
otherwise, other than Additional Junior Indebtedness (i) that, by its terms, is expressly stated to be either junior and subordinate
or pari passu in all respects to the Debentures, and (ii) of which the Company has notified (and, if then required under
the applicable guidelines of the regulating entity, has received approval from) the Federal Reserve, if the Company is a bank
holding company, or the OTS, if the Company is a savings and loan holding company.


 


Section 3.11.      Subsidiary; Insured Depository Institution. So long as any of the Debentures remain outstanding, at least one
operating Subsidiary of the Company shall be an insured depository institution, as such term is defined in Section 3(c)(2) of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act, as amended.

ARTICLE IV.


SECURITYHOLDERS’ LISTS AND REPORTS


BY THE COMPANY AND THE TRUSTEE


 


Section 4.1.       Securityholders’
Lists. The Company covenants and agrees that it will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee:


 


(a)          on
each regular record date for the Debentures, a list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses
of the Securityholders of the Debentures as of such record date; and


 


(b)          at
such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a
list of similar form and content as of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished; except that no such
lists need be furnished under this Section 4.1 so long as the Trustee is in possession thereof by reason of its acting as Debenture
registrar.


 


Section 4.2.       
Preservation and Disclosure of Lists.


 


(a)          The
Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, all information as to the names and addresses of the
holders of Debentures (1) contained in the most recent list furnished to it as provided in Section 4.1 or (2) received by it in
the capacity of Debentures registrar (if so acting) hereunder. The Trustee may destroy any list furnished to it as provided in
Section 4.1 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.


 


(b)          In
case three or more holders of Debentures (hereinafter referred to as “applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee
and furnish to the Trustee reasonable proof that each such applicant has owned a Debenture for a period of at least 6 months preceding
the date of such application, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other holders of Debentures
with respect to their rights under this Indenture or under such Debentures and is accompanied by a copy of the form of proxy or
other communication which such applicants propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall within 5 Business Days after the receipt
of such application, at its election, either:


 


(1)          afford
such applicants access to the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection
(a) of this Section 4.2, or


 


(2)           inform
such applicants as to the approximate number of holders of Debentures whose names and addresses appear in the information preserved
at the time by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 4.2, and as to the approximate cost
of mailing to such Securityholders the form of proxy or other communication, if any, specified in such application.


 


If the Trustee shall elect
not to afford such applicants access to such information, the Trustee shall, upon the written request of such applicants, mail
to each Securityholder whose name and address appear in the information preserved at the time by the Trustee in accordance with
the provisions of subsection (a) of this Section 4.2 a copy of the form of proxy or other communication which is specified in such
request with reasonable promptness after a tender to the Trustee of the material to be mailed and of payment, or provision for
the payment, of the reasonable expenses of mailing, unless within five days after such tender, the Trustee shall mail to such applicants
and file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, if permitted or required by applicable law, together with a copy of the material
to be mailed, a written statement to the effect that, in the opinion of the Trustee, such mailing would be contrary to the best
interests of the holders of all Debentures, as the case may be, or would be in violation of applicable law. Such written statement
shall specify the basis of such opinion. If said Commission, as permitted or required by applicable law, after opportunity for
a hearing upon the objections specified in the written statement so filed, shall enter an order refusing to sustain any of such
objections or if, after the entry of an order sustaining one or more of such objections, said Commission shall find, after notice
and opportunity for hearing, that all the objections so sustained have been met and shall enter an order so declaring, the Trustee
shall mail copies of such material to all such Securityholders with reasonable promptness after the entry of such order and the
renewal of such tender; otherwise the Trustee shall be relieved of any obligation or duty to such applicants respecting their application.


 






    	 	21	 



     


    

 


(c)          Each
and every holder of Debentures, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Company and the Trustee that neither the Company
nor the Trustee nor any paying agent shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to the names
and addresses of the holders of Debentures in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section 4.2, regardless
of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing
any material pursuant to a request made under said subsection (b).


 


Section 4.3.       
Reports by the Company. The Company shall furnish to the holders of the Capital Securities and to prospective
purchasers of the Capital Securities, upon their request, the information required to be furnished pursuant to Rule 144A(d)(4)

REMEDIES OF THE TRUSTEE AND SECURITYHOLDERS


UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT


 


Section 5.1.        Events
of Default. “Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the
reason for such Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant
to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):


 


(a)           the
Company defaults in the payment of any interest upon any Debenture, including any Additional Interest in respect thereof, following
the nonpayment of any such interest for twenty or more consecutive Distribution Periods; or


 


(b)          the
Company defaults in the payment of all or any part of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Debentures as and when the
same shall become due and payable either at maturity, upon redemption, by declaration of acceleration or otherwise; or


 


(c)          the
Company defaults in the performance of, or breaches, any of its covenants or agreements in this Indenture or in the terms of the
Debentures established as contemplated in this Indenture (other than a covenant or agreement a default in whose performance or
whose breach is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), and continuance of such default or breach for a period of 60
days after there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the Company and the Trustee

or breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default” hereunder; or


 






    	 	22	 



     


    

 


(d)          a

in the Trust, (ii) the redemption of all of the outstanding Trust Securities or (iii) certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations,
each as permitted by the Declaration.


 


If an Acceleration Event
of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to the Debentures, then, and in each and every such case, unless the principal
of the Debentures shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate
principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given
by Securityholders), may declare the entire principal of the Debentures and the interest accrued thereon, if any, to be due and
payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default under
Section 5.1(b) or (c) occurs and is continuing with respect to the Debentures, then, and in each and every such case, unless the
principal of the Debentures shall have already become due and payable, either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in
aggregate principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding hereunder, by notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee
if given by Securityholders), may proceed to remedy the default or breach thereunder by such appropriate judicial proceedings as
the Trustee or such holders shall deem most effectual to remedy the defaulted covenant or enforce the provisions of this Indenture
so breached, either by suit in equity or by action at law, for damages or otherwise.


 


The foregoing provisions,
however, are subject to the condition that if, at any time after the principal of the Debentures shall have been so declared due
and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the moneys due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter
provided, (i) the Company shall pay or shall deposit with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest
upon all the Debentures and the principal of and premium, if any, on the Debentures which shall have become due otherwise than
by acceleration (with interest upon such principal and premium, if any, and Additional Interest) and such amount as shall be sufficient
to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and
all other amounts due to the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.6, if any, and (ii) all Events of Default under this Indenture, other
than the non-payment of the principal of or premium, if any, on Debentures which shall have become due by acceleration, shall have
been cured, waived or otherwise remedied as provided herein — then and in every such case the holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding, by written notice to the Company and to the Trustee, may waive all defaults
and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or
shall affect any subsequent default or shall impair any right consequent thereon.


 






    	 	23	 



     


    

 


In case the Trustee shall
have proceeded to enforce any right under this Indenture and such proceedings shall have been discontinued or abandoned because
of such rescission or annulment or for any other reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Trustee, then and in every
such case the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Debentures shall be restored respectively to their several positions
and rights hereunder, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Debentures shall continue
as though no such proceeding had been taken.


 


Section 5.2.       Payment
of Debentures on Default; Suit Therefor. The Company covenants that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant
to Section 5.1(a) or (b) then, upon demand of the Trustee, the Company will pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the holders
of the Debentures the whole amount that then shall have become due and payable on all Debentures for principal and premium, if
any, or interest, or both, as the case may be, with Additional Interest accrued on the Debentures (to the extent that payment
of such interest is enforceable under applicable law and, if the Debentures are held by the Trust or a trustee of such Trust,
without duplication of any other amounts paid by the Trust or a trustee in respect thereof); and, in addition thereto, such further
amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including a reasonable compensation to the Trustee,
its agents, attorneys and counsel, and any other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.6. In case the Company shall fail
forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, shall be entitled
and empowered to institute any actions or proceedings at law or in equity for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and
may prosecute any such action or proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any such judgment or final decree against
the Company or any other obligor on such Debentures and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company
or any other obligor on such Debentures wherever situated the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable.


 


In case there shall be
pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Debentures under Bankruptcy
Law, or in case a receiver or trustee shall have been appointed for the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the
case of any other similar judicial proceedings relative to the Company or other obligor upon the Debentures, or to the creditors
or property of the Company or such other obligor, the Trustee, irrespective of whether the principal of the Debentures shall then
be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee
shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.2, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in
such proceedings or otherwise,


 


		(i)	to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid
in respect of the Debentures,



 


		(ii)	in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents
as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to
the Trustee and each predecessor Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all other
amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.6), and of the Securityholders allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the
Company or any other obligor on the Debentures, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, unless prohibited
by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the holders of the Debentures in any election of a trustee or a standby
trustee in arrangement, reorganization, liquidation or other bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings or Person performing similar
functions in comparable proceedings,



 






    	 	24	 



     


    

 


		(iii)	to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims,
and



 


		(iv)	to distribute the same after the deduction of its charges and expenses.



 


Any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy
or reorganization is hereby authorized by each of the Securityholders to make such payments to the Trustee, and, in the event that
the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Securityholders, to pay to the Trustee such amounts as
shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Trustee, each predecessor Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys
and counsel, and all other amounts due to the Trustee under Section 6.6.


 


Nothing herein contained
shall be construed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Securityholder any plan
of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Debentures or the rights of any holder thereof or to authorize
the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Securityholder in any such proceeding.


 


All rights of action and
of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Debentures, may be enforced by the Trustee without the possession
of any of the Debentures, or the production thereof at any trial or other proceeding relative thereto, and any such suit or proceeding
instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall be
for the ratable benefit of the holders of the Debentures.


 


In any proceedings brought
by the Trustee (and also any proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Trustee shall
be a party), the Trustee shall be held to represent all the holders of the Debentures, and it shall not be necessary to make any
holders of the Debentures parties to any such proceedings.


 


Section 5.3.       Application
of Moneys Collected by Trustee. Any moneys collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article V shall be applied in the
following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee for the distribution of such moneys, upon presentation of the several
Debentures in respect of which moneys have been collected, and stamping thereon the payment, if only partially paid, and upon
surrender thereof if fully paid:


 


First: To the payment of
costs and expenses incurred by, and reasonable fees of, the Trustee, its agents, attorneys and counsel, and of all other amounts
due to the Trustee under Section 6.6;


 


Second: To the payment
of all Senior Indebtedness of the Company if and to the extent required by Article XV;


 


Third: To the payment of
the amounts then due and unpaid upon Debentures for principal (and premium, if any), and interest on the Debentures, in respect
of which or for the benefit of which money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to
the amounts due on such Debentures (including Additional Interest); and


 


Fourth: The balance, if
any, to the Company.


 




    	 	25	 



     


    

 


Section 5.4.        Proceedings
by Securityholders. No holder of any Debenture shall have any right to institute any suit, action or proceeding for any
remedy hereunder, unless such holder previously shall have given to the Trustee written notice of an Event of Default with respect
to the Debentures and unless the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures then outstanding
shall have given the Trustee a written request to institute such action, suit or proceeding and shall have offered to the Trustee
such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred thereby, and the Trustee
for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity shall have failed to institute any such action, suit
or proceeding.


 


Notwithstanding any other
provisions in this Indenture, however, the right of any holder of any Debenture to receive payment of the principal of, premium,
if any, and interest, on such Debenture when due, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, shall not be impaired
or affected without the consent of such holder and by accepting a Debenture hereunder it is expressly understood, intended and
covenanted by the taker and holder of every Debenture with every other such taker and holder and the Trustee, that no one or more
holders of Debentures shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue or by availing itself of any provision of this Indenture
to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the holders of any other Debentures, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over
or preference to any other such holder, or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and
for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all holders of Debentures. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of
this Section, each and every Securityholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
equity.


 


Section 5.5.        Proceedings
by Trustee. In case of an Event of Default hereunder the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce
the rights vested in it by this Indenture by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to
protect and enforce any of such rights, either by suit in equity or by action at law or by proceeding in bankruptcy or otherwise,
whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement contained in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any
power granted in this Indenture, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by this Indenture or by
law.


 


Section 5.6.       Remedies
Cumulative and Continuing; Delay or Omission Not a Waiver. Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.6, all powers and
remedies given by this Article V to the Trustee or to the Securityholders shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative
and not exclusive of any other powers and remedies available to the Trustee or the holders of the Debentures, by judicial proceedings
or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Indenture or otherwise
established with respect to the Debentures, and no delay or omission of the Trustee or of any holder of any of the Debentures
to exercise any right, remedy or power accruing upon any Event of Default occurring and continuing as aforesaid shall impair any
such right, remedy or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such default or an acquiescence therein; and, subject
to the provisions of Section 5.4, every power and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the Securityholders
may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Trustee (in accordance with its duties under
Section 6.1) or by the Securityholders.


 


Section 5.7.
       Direction of Proceedings and Waiver of Defaults by Majority of Securityholders.
The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures affected (voting as one class) at the time outstanding
shall have the right to direct the time, method, and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee,
or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee with respect to such Debentures; provided, however, that
(subject to the provisions of Section 6.1) the Trustee shall have the right to decline to follow any such direction if the Trustee
shall determine that the action so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the holders not taking part in such direction or
if the Trustee being advised by counsel determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully be taken or if a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall determine that the action or proceedings so directed would involve the Trustee in personal
liability.


 






    	 	26	 



     


    

 


The holders of a majority
in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all of the Debentures
waive (or modify any previously granted waiver of) any past default or Event of Default, and its consequences, except a default
(a) in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Debentures, (b) in respect of covenants or provisions
hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each Debenture affected, or (c) in respect of
the covenants contained in Section 3.9; provided, however, that if the Debentures are held by the Trust or a trustee
of such trust, such waiver or modification to such waiver shall not be effective until the holders of a majority in Liquidation
Amount of Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented to such waiver or modification to such waiver, provided, further,
that if the consent of the holder of each outstanding Debenture is required, such waiver shall not be effective until each holder
of the Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented to such waiver. Upon any such waiver, the default covered thereby shall
be deemed to be cured for all purposes of this Indenture and the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Debentures shall
be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or
other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Whenever any default or Event of Default hereunder shall
have been waived as permitted by this Section, said default or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Debentures and this
Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.


 


Section 5.8.
          Notice of Defaults. The Trustee shall, within 90
days after the actual knowledge by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of the occurrence of a default with respect to the Debentures,
mail to all Securityholders, as the names and addresses of such holders appear upon the Debenture Register, notice of all defaults
with respect to the Debentures known to the Trustee, unless such defaults shall have been cured before the giving of such notice
(the term “defaults” for the purpose of this Section 5.8 being hereby defined to be the events specified in clauses
(a), (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of Section 5.1, not including periods of grace, if any, provided for therein); provided,
however, that, except in the case of default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of
the Debentures, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such notice if and so long as a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
in good faith determines that the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Securityholders.


 


Section 5.9.          Undertaking
to Pay Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and each holder of any Debenture by his acceptance thereof shall be
deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under
this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant
in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs,
including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits
and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant; provided, however, that the provisions of
this Section 5.9 shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Securityholder, or group
of Securityholders, holding in the aggregate more than 10% in principal amount of the Debentures outstanding, or to any suit instituted
by any Securityholder for the enforcement of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Debenture
against the Company on or after the same shall have become due and payable.

ARTICLE VI.


CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE


 


Section 6.1.        Duties
and Responsibilities of Trustee. With respect to the holders of Debentures issued hereunder, the Trustee, prior to the
occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which
may have occurred, with respect to the Debentures, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically
set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. In case an Event
of Default with respect to the Debentures has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of
the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent
man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.


 


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


 


(a)          prior
to the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to Debentures and after the curing or waiving of all Events of Default which
may have occurred


 


(1)          the
duties and obligations of the Trustee with respect to Debentures shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Indenture,
and the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations with respect to the Debentures as
are specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture against
the Trustee, and


 


(2)          in
the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the 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 Trustee and conforming to the
requirements of this Indenture; but, in the case of any such certificates or opinions which by any provision hereof are specifically
required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they
conform to the requirements of this Indenture;


 


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


 


(c)          the
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 Securityholders pursuant to Section 5.7, relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for
any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture.


 


None of the provisions
contained in this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability
in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is ground for believing that
the repayment of such funds or liability is not assured to it under the terms of this Indenture or indemnity satisfactory to the
Trustee against such risk is not reasonably assured to it.


 


Section 6.2.         Reliance
on Documents, Opinions, etc. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1:


 




    	 	28	 



     


    

 


(a)          the
Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, bond, note, debenture or other paper or document believed
by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;


 


(b)          any
request, direction, order or demand of the Company mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate
(unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed); and any Board Resolution may be evidenced to the
Trustee by a copy thereof certified by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Company;


 


(c)          the
Trustee may consult with counsel of its selection and any advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization
and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such advice
or Opinion of Counsel;


 


(d)          the
Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request, order
or direction of any of the Securityholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Securityholders shall have
offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein
or thereby;


 


(e)          the
Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the
discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee
of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Debentures (that has not been cured or waived)
to exercise with respect to Debentures such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and to use the same degree
of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;


 


(f)           the
Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement,
instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, coupon or other paper or document, unless
requested in writing to do so by the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Debentures
affected thereby; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses
or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably
assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Indenture, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity
against such expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding;


 


(g)          the
Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents
(including any Authenticating Agent) or attorneys, and the Trustee shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on
the part of any such agent or attorney appointed by it with due care; and


 


(h)          with
the exceptions of defaults under Sections 5.1(a) or (b), the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Default or Event
of Default with respect to the Debentures unless a written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to
the Trustee by the Company or any other obligor on the Debentures or by any holder of the Debentures.


 


Section 6.3.         No
Responsibility for Recitals, etc. The recitals contained herein and in the Debentures (except in the certificate of authentication
of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent) shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Trustee and the Authenticating
Agent assume no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee and the Authenticating Agent make no representations
as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Debentures. The Trustee and the Authenticating Agent shall not be
accountable for the use or application by the Company of any Debentures or the proceeds of any Debentures authenticated and delivered
by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent in conformity with the provisions of this Indenture.


 






    	 	29	 



     


    

 


Section 6.4.          Trustee,
Authenticating Agent, Paying Agents, Transfer Agents or Registrar May Own Debentures. The Trustee or any Authenticating
Agent or any paying agent or any transfer agent or any Debenture registrar, in its individual or any other capacity, may become
the owner or pledgee of Debentures with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, paying agent,
transfer agent or Debenture registrar.


 


Section 6.5.          Moneys
to be Held in Trust. Subject to the provisions of Section 12.4, all moneys received by the Trustee or any paying agent
shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust for the purpose for which they were received, but need not be
segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee and any paying agent shall be under no liability
for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed in writing with the Company. So long as no Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all interest allowed on any such moneys shall be paid from time to time upon
the written order of the Company, signed by the Chairman of the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President,
a Managing Director, a Vice President, the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the Company.


 


Section 6.6.          Compensation
and Expenses of Trustee. The Company covenants and agrees to pay or reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Indenture
(including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all Persons not regularly in its
employ) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or willful misconduct. For purposes
of clarification, this Section 6.6 does not contemplate the payment by the Company of acceptance or annual administration fees
owing to the Trustee pursuant to the services to be provided by the Trustee under this Indenture or the fees and expenses of the
Trustee’s counsel in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Indenture. The Company also covenants
to indemnify each of the Trustee or any predecessor Trustee (and its officers, agents, directors and employees) for, and to hold
it harmless against, any and all loss, damage, claim, liability or expense including taxes (other than taxes based on the income
of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee and arising out of or in connection
with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim of
liability. The obligations of the Company under this Section 6.6 to compensate and indemnify the Trustee and to pay or reimburse
the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness
shall be secured by a lien prior to that of the Debentures upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such,
except funds held in trust for the benefit of the holders of particular Debentures.


 


Without prejudice to any
other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection
with an Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(d), (e) or (f), the expenses (including the reasonable charges and expenses of
its counsel) and the compensation for the services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any applicable federal
or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law.


 


The provisions of this
Section shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee and the defeasance or other termination of this Indenture.


 


Notwithstanding anything
in this Indenture or any Debenture to the contrary, the Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever to advance funds to pay any
principal of or interest on or other amounts with respect to the Debentures or otherwise advance funds to or on behalf of the Company.


 






    	 	30	 



     


    

 


Section 6.7.          Officers’ Certificate as Evidence. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6.1 and 6.2, whenever in the
administration of the provisions of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or
established prior to taking or omitting any action hereunder, such matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically
prescribed) may, in the absence of negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, be deemed to be conclusively proved
and established by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee, and such certificate, in the absence of negligence
or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee, shall be full warrant to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted by it under
the provisions of this Indenture upon the faith thereof.


 


Section 6.8.          Eligibility of Trustee. The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America or any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia or a corporation
or other Person authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having (or whose obligations under this Indenture
are guaranteed by an affiliate having) a combined capital and surplus of at least 50 million U.S. dollars ($50,000,000.00) and
subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial, or District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes
reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority,
then for the purposes of this Section 6.8 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined
capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent records of condition so published.


 


The Company may not, nor
may any Person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Company, serve as Trustee.


 


In case at any time the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.8, the Trustee shall resign immediately
in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 6.9.


 


If the Trustee has or shall
acquire any “conflicting interest” within the meaning of § 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, the Trustee
shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner described by this Indenture.


 


Section 6.9.          Resignation
or Removal of Trustee


 


(a)          The
Trustee, or any trustee or trustees hereafter appointed, may at any time resign by giving written notice of such resignation to
the Company and by mailing notice thereof, at the Company’s expense, to the holders of the Debentures at their addresses
as they shall appear on the Debenture Register. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Company shall promptly appoint a
successor trustee or trustees by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of its Board of Directors, one copy of which
instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have
been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the mailing of such notice of resignation to the affected
Securityholders, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee,
or any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Debenture or Debentures for at least six months may, subject to the
provisions of Section 5.9, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any such court for the appointment
of a successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as it may deem proper and prescribe, appoint a successor
Trustee.


 


(b)          In
case at any time any of the following shall occur —


 


(1)           the
Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of Section 6.8 after written request therefor by the Company or by any Securityholder
who has been a bona fide holder of a Debenture or Debentures for at least 6 months, or


 






    	 	31	 



     


    

 


(2)          the
Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.8 and shall fail to resign after written request
therefor by the Company or by any such Securityholder, or


 


(3)          the
Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its
property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for
the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,


 


then, in any such case,
the Company may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, executed by order of the
Board of Directors, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Trustee,
or, subject to the provisions of Section 5.9, any Securityholder who has been a bona fide holder of a Debenture or Debentures for
at least 6 months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee. Such court may thereupon, after such notice, if any, as
it may deem proper and prescribe, remove the Trustee and appoint successor Trustee.


 


(c)           Upon
prior written notice to the Company and the Trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures
at the time outstanding may at any time remove the Trustee and nominate a successor Trustee, which shall be deemed appointed as
successor Trustee unless within 10 Business Days after such nomination the Company objects thereto, in which case, or in the case
of a failure by such holders to nominate a successor Trustee, the Trustee so removed or any Securityholder, upon the terms and
conditions and otherwise as in subsection (a) of this Section 6.9 provided, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for
an appointment of a successor.


 


(d)          Any
resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section
shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as provided in Section 6.10.


 


Section 6.10.          Acceptance
by Successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 6.9 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver
to the Company and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation
or removal of the retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance,
shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations with respect to the Debentures of its predecessor hereunder,
with like effect as if originally named as Trustee herein; but, nevertheless, on the written request of the Company or of the
successor Trustee, the Trustee ceasing to act shall, upon payment of any amounts then due it pursuant to the provisions of Section
6.6, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the rights and powers of the Trustee so ceasing
to act and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee
thereunder. Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments in writing for more
fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights and powers. Any Trustee ceasing to act
shall, nevertheless, retain a lien upon all property or funds held or collected by such Trustee to secure any amounts then due
it pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.6.


 


If a successor Trustee
is appointed, the Company, the retiring Trustee and the successor Trustee shall execute and deliver an indenture supplemental hereto
which shall contain such provisions as shall be deemed necessary or desirable to confirm that all the rights, powers, trusts and
duties of the retiring Trustee with respect to the Debentures as to which the predecessor Trustee is not retiring shall continue
to be vested in the predecessor Trustee, and shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary
to provide for or facilitate the administration of the Trust hereunder by more than one Trustee, it being understood
that nothing herein or in such supplemental indenture shall constitute such Trustees co-trustees of the same trust and that each
such Trustee shall be Trustee of a trust or trusts hereunder separate and apart from any trust or trusts hereunder administered
by any other such Trustee.


 



    	 	32	 



     


    

 


No successor Trustee shall
accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be eligible under
the provisions of Section 6.8.


 


In no event shall a retiring
Trustee be liable for the acts or omissions of any successor Trustee hereunder.


 


Upon acceptance of appointment
by a successor Trustee as provided in this Section 6.10, the Company shall mail notice of the succession of such Trustee hereunder
to the holders of Debentures at their addresses as they shall appear on the Debenture Register. If the Company fails to mail such
notice within 10 Business Days after the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause
such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Company.


 


Section 6.11.       Succession
by Merger, etc. Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated,
or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation
succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto; provided such
corporation shall be otherwise eligible and qualified under this Article.


 


In case at the time such
successor to the Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture any of the Debentures shall have been authenticated
but not delivered, any such successor to the Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee, and
deliver such Debentures so authenticated; and in case at that time any of the Debentures shall not have been authenticated, any
successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Debentures either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the
successor Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Debentures or
in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to
adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or authenticate Debentures in the name of any predecessor Trustee
shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.


 


Section 6.12.       Authenticating
Agents. There may be one or more Authenticating Agents appointed by the Trustee upon the request of the Company with power
to act on its behalf and subject to its direction in the authentication and delivery of Debentures issued upon exchange or registration
of transfer thereof as fully to all intents and purposes as though any such Authenticating Agent had been expressly authorized
to authenticate and deliver Debentures; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have no liability to the Company
for any acts or omissions of the Authenticating Agent with respect to the authentication and delivery of Debentures. Any such
Authenticating Agent shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of
any state or territory thereof or of the District of Columbia authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having
a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000.00 and being subject to supervision or examination by federal, state, territorial
or District of Columbia authority. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or the
requirements of such authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.12 the combined capital and surplus of such corporation
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 an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign
immediately in the manner and with the effect herein specified in this Section.


 




    	 	33	 



     


    

 


Any corporation into which
any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any
merger, consolidation or conversion to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or
substantially all of the corporate trust business of any Authenticating Agent, shall be the successor of such Authenticating Agent
hereunder, if such successor corporation is otherwise eligible under this Section 6.12 without the execution or filing of any paper
or any further act on the part of the parties hereto or such Authenticating Agent.


 


Any Authenticating Agent
may at any time resign by giving written notice of resignation to the Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate
the agency of any Authenticating Agent with respect to the Debentures by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating
Agent and to the Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible under this Section 6.12, the Trustee may, and upon the request of the Company shall, promptly
appoint a successor Authenticating Agent eligible under this Section 6.12, shall give written notice of such appointment to the
Company and shall mail notice of such appointment to all holders of Debentures as the names and addresses of such holders appear
on the Debenture Register. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested
with all rights, powers, duties and responsibilities with respect to the Debentures of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect
as if originally named as Authenticating Agent herein.


 


The Company agrees to pay
to any Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable compensation for its services. Any Authenticating Agent shall have no
responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such in accordance with the directions of the Trustee.


 


ARTICLE VII.


CONCERNING THE SECURITYHOLDERS


 


Section 7.1.         Action
by Securityholders. Whenever in this Indenture it is provided that the holders of a specified percentage in aggregate
principal amount of the Debentures may take any action (including the making of any demand or request, the giving of any notice,
consent or waiver or the taking of any other action) the fact that at the time of taking any such action the holders of such specified
percentage have joined therein may be evidenced (a) by any instrument or any number of instruments of similar tenor executed by
such Securityholders in person or by agent or proxy appointed in writing, or (b) by the record of such holders of Debentures voting
in favor thereof at any meeting of such Securityholders duly called and held in accordance with the provisions of Article VIII,
or (c) by a combination of such instrument or instruments and any such record of such a meeting of such Securityholders or (d)
by any other method the Trustee deems satisfactory.


 


If the Company shall solicit
from the Securityholders any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation
of the same, the Company may, at its option, as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate, fix in advance a record date for
such Debentures for the determination of Securityholders entitled to give such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same, but the Company shall have no obligation to do so. If such a record
date is fixed, such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action or revocation of the same
may be given before or after the record date, but only the Securityholders of record at the close of business on the record date
shall be deemed to be Securityholders for the purposes of determining whether Securityholders of the requisite proportion of outstanding
Debentures have authorized or agreed or consented to such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other action or revocation of the same, and for that purpose the outstanding Debentures shall be computed as of the record date;
provided, however, that no such authorization, agreement or consent by such Securityholders on the record date shall
be deemed effective unless it shall become effective pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture not later than 6 months after
the record date.


 






    	 	34	 



     


    

 


Section 7.2.          Proof of Execution by Securityholders. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.1, 6.2 and 8.5, proof of the execution
of any instrument by a Securityholder or his agent or proxy shall be sufficient if made in accordance with such reasonable rules
and regulations as may be prescribed by the Trustee or in such manner as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee. The ownership of
Debentures shall be proved by the Debenture Register or by a certificate of the Debenture registrar. The Trustee may require such
additional proof of any matter referred to in this Section as it shall deem necessary.


 


The record of any Securityholders’
meeting shall be proved in the manner provided in Section 8.6.


 


Section 7.3.          Who Are Deemed Absolute Owners. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Debenture, the Company,
the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any transfer agent and any Debenture registrar may deem the Person in
whose name such Debenture shall be registered upon the Debenture Register to be, and may treat him as, the absolute owner of such
Debenture (whether or not such Debenture shall be overdue) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on account of the principal
of, premium, if any, and interest on such Debenture and for all other purposes; and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any
Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent nor any transfer agent nor any Debenture registrar shall be affected by any notice to
the contrary. All such payments so made to any holder for the time being or upon his order shall be valid, and, to the extent of
the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys payable upon any such Debenture.


 


Section 7.4.          Debentures
Owned by Company Deemed Not Outstanding. In determining whether the holders of the requisite aggregate principal amount
of Debentures have concurred in any direction, consent or waiver under this Indenture, Debentures which are owned by the Company
or any other obligor on the Debentures or by any Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by or under direct or
indirect common control with the Company or any other obligor on the Debentures shall be disregarded and deemed not to be outstanding
for the purpose of any such determination; provided, however, that for the purposes of determining whether the Trustee
shall be protected in relying on any such direction, consent or waiver, only Debentures which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
actually knows are so owned shall be so disregarded. Debentures so owned which have been pledged in good faith may be regarded
as outstanding for the purposes of this Section 7.4 if the pledgee shall establish to the satisfaction of the Trustee the pledgee’s
right to vote such Debentures and that the pledgee is not the Company or any such other obligor or Person directly or indirectly
controlling or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with the Company or any such other obligor. In the case
of a dispute as to such right, any decision by the Trustee taken upon the advice of counsel shall be full protection to the Trustee.


 


Section 7.5.          Revocation of Consents; Future Holders Bound. At any time prior to (but not after) the evidencing to the Trustee,
as provided in Section 7.1, of the taking of any action by the holders of the percentage in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures
specified in this Indenture in connection with such action, any holder (in cases where no record date has been set pursuant to
Section 7.1) or any holder as of an applicable record date (in cases where a record date has been set pursuant to Section 7.1)
of a Debenture (or any Debenture issued in whole or in part in exchange or substitution therefor) the serial number of which is
shown by the evidence to be included in the Debentures the holders of which have consented to such action may, by filing written
notice with the Trustee at the Principal Office of the Trustee and upon proof of holding as provided in Section 7.2, revoke such
action so far as concerns such Debenture (or so far as concerns the principal amount represented by any exchanged or substituted
Debenture). Except as aforesaid any such action taken by the holder of any Debenture shall be conclusive and binding upon such
holder and upon all future holders and owners of such Debenture, and of any Debenture issued in exchange or substitution therefor
or on registration of transfer thereof, irrespective of whether or not any notation in regard thereto is made upon such Debenture
or any Debenture issued in exchange or substitution therefor.

ARTICLE IX.


SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES


 


Section 9.1.          Supplemental
Indentures without Consent of Securityholders. The Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may
from time to time and at any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto, without the consent of the Securityholders,
for one or more of the following purposes:


 


(a)          to
evidence the succession of another Person to the Company, or successive successions, and the assumption by the successor Person
of the covenants, agreements and obligations of the Company, pursuant to Article XI hereof;


 


(b)          to
add to the covenants of the Company such further covenants, restrictions or conditions for the protection of the holders of Debentures
as the Board of Directors shall consider to be for the protection of the holders of such Debentures, and to make the occurrence,
or the occurrence and continuance, of a default in any of such additional covenants, restrictions or conditions a default or an
Event of Default permitting the enforcement of all or any of the several remedies provided in this Indenture as herein set forth;
provided, however, that in respect of any such additional covenant restriction or condition such supplemental indenture
may provide for a particular period of grace after default (which period may be shorter or longer than that allowed in the case
of other defaults) or may provide for an immediate enforcement upon such default or may limit the remedies available to the Trustee
upon such default;


 


(c)          to
cure any ambiguity or to correct or supplement any provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture which may be defective
or inconsistent with any other provision contained herein or in any supplemental indenture, or to make such other provisions in
regard to matters or questions arising under this Indenture; provided that any such action shall not materially adversely
affect the interests of the holders of the Debentures;


 




    	 	38	 



     


    

 


(d)          to
add to, delete from, or revise the terms of Debentures, including, without limitation, any terms relating to the issuance, exchange,
registration or transfer of Debentures, including to provide for transfer procedures and restrictions substantially similar to
those applicable to the Capital Securities as required by Section 2.5 (for purposes of assuring that no registration of Debentures
is required under the Securities Act); provided, however, that any such action shall not adversely affect the interests
of the holders of the Debentures then outstanding (it being understood, for purposes of this proviso, that transfer restrictions
on Debentures substantially similar to those that were applicable to Capital Securities shall not be deemed to materially adversely
affect the holders of the Debentures);


 


(e)          to
evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment hereunder by a successor Trustee with respect to the Debentures and to add
to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the
trusts hereunder by more than one Trustee;


 


(f)          to
make any change (other than as elsewhere provided in this paragraph) that does not adversely affect the rights of any Securityholder
in any material respect; or


 


(g)          to
provide for the issuance of and establish the form and terms and conditions of the Debentures, to establish the form of any certifications
required to be furnished pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or the Debentures, or to add to the rights of the holders of Debentures.


 


The Trustee is hereby authorized
to join with the Company in the execution of any such supplemental indenture, to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations
which may be therein contained and to accept the conveyance, transfer and assignment of any property thereunder, but the Trustee
shall not be obligated to, but may in its discretion, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s
own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.


 


Any supplemental indenture
authorized by the provisions of this Section 9.1 may be executed by the Company and the Trustee without the consent of the holders
of any of the Debentures at the time outstanding, notwithstanding any of the provisions of Section 9.2.


 


Section 9.2.          Supplemental
Indentures with Consent of Securityholders. With the consent (evidenced as provided in Section 7.1) of the holders of
not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding affected by such supplemental
indenture (voting as a class), the Company, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may from time to time and at
any time enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in
any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in any manner
the rights of the holders of the Debentures; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall without
the consent of the holders of each Debenture then outstanding and affected thereby (i) change the fixed maturity of any Debenture,
or reduce the principal amount thereof or any premium thereon, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon,
or reduce any amount payable on redemption thereof or make the principal thereof or any interest or premium thereon payable in
any coin or currency other than that provided in the Debentures, or impair or affect the right of any Securityholder to institute
suit for payment thereof or impair the right of repayment, if any, at the option of the holder, or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage
of Debentures the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture; provided further,
however, that if the Debentures are held by a trust or a trustee of such trust, such supplemental indenture shall not be
effective until the holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities shall have consented to such supplemental
indenture; provided further, however, that if the consent of the Securityholder of each outstanding
Debenture is required, such supplemental indenture shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities shall have
consented to such supplemental indenture.


 




    	 	39	 



     


    

 


Upon the request of the
Company accompanied by a Board Resolution authorizing the execution of any such supplemental indenture, and upon the filing with
the Trustee of evidence of the consent of Securityholders as aforesaid, the Trustee shall join with the Company in the execution

under this Indenture or otherwise, in which case the Trustee may in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, enter into such
supplemental indenture.


 


Promptly after the execution
by the Company and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall transmit
by mail, first class postage prepaid, a notice, prepared by the Company, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental
indenture, to the Securityholders as their names and addresses appear upon the Debenture Register. Any failure of the Trustee to

indenture.


 


It shall not be necessary
for the consent of the Securityholders under this Section 9.2 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture,
but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.

IX, this Indenture shall be and be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith and the respective rights, limitations

thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments and all
the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this
Indenture for any and all purposes.


 


Section 9.4.          Notation
on Debentures. Debentures authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the
provisions of this Article IX may bear a notation as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Company
or the Trustee shall so determine, new Debentures so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company,
to any modification of this Indenture contained in any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Company,
authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and delivered in exchange for the Debentures then outstanding.


 


Section 9.5.          Evidence
of Compliance of Supplemental Indenture to be Furnished to Trustee. The Trustee, subject to the provisions of Sections
6.1 and 6.2, shall, in addition to the documents required by Section 14.6, receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion
of Counsel as conclusive evidence that any supplemental indenture executed pursuant hereto complies with the requirements of this

REDEMPTION OF SECURITIES


 


Section 10.1.          Optional
Redemption. The Company shall have the right (subject to the receipt by the Company of prior approval (i) if the Company
is a bank holding company, from the Federal Reserve, if then required under applicable capital guidelines or policies of the Federal
Reserve or (ii) if the Company is a savings and loan holding company, from the OTS, if then required under applicable capital
guidelines or policies of the OTS) to redeem the Debentures, in whole or in part, but in all cases in a principal amount with
integral multiples of $1,000.00, on any Interest Payment Date on or after the Interest Payment Date in December 2012 (the “Redemption
Date”), at the Redemption Price.


 






    	 	40	 



     


    

 


Section 10.2.          Special
Event Redemption. If a Special Event shall occur and be continuing, the Company shall have the right (subject to the receipt
by the Company of prior approval (i) if the Company is a bank holding company, from the Federal Reserve, if then required under
applicable capital guidelines or policies of the Federal Reserve or (ii) if the Company is a savings and loan holding company,
from the OTS, if then required under applicable capital guidelines or policies of the OTS) to redeem the Debentures in whole,
but not in part, at any Interest Payment Date, within 120 days following the occurrence of such Special Event (the “Special
Redemption Date”) at the Special Redemption Price. If the Special Event redemption occurs prior to the Interest Payment
Date in December 2012, the Company shall appoint a Quotation Agent, which shall be a designee of the Institutional Trustee, for
the purpose of performing the services contemplated in, or by reference in, the definition of Special Redemption Price. Any error
in the calculation of the Special Redemption Price by the Quotation Agent or the Trustee may be corrected at any time by notice
delivered to the Company and the holders of the Debentures. Subject to the corrective rights set forth above, all certificates,
communications, opinions, determinations, calculations, quotations and decisions given, expressed, made or obtained for the purposes
of the provisions relating to the payment and calculation of the Special Redemption Price on the Debentures by the Trustee or
the Quotation Agent, as the case may be, shall (in the absence of willful default, bad faith or manifest error) be final, conclusive
and binding on the holders of the Debentures and the Company, and no liability shall attach (except as provided above) to the
Trustee or the Quotation Agent in connection with the exercise or non-exercise by any of them of their respective powers, duties
and discretion.


 


Section 10.3.          Notice
of Redemption; Selection of Debentures. In case the Company shall desire to exercise the right to redeem all, or, as the
case may be, any part of the Debentures, it shall cause to be mailed a notice of such redemption at least 30 and not more than
60 days prior to the Redemption Date or the Special Redemption Date to the holders of Debentures so to be redeemed as a whole
or in part at their last addresses as the same appear on the Debenture Register. Such mailing shall be by first class mail. The
notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the holder
receives such notice. In any case, failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the holder of any Debenture
designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other
Debenture.


 


Each such notice of redemption
shall specify the CUSIP number, if any, of the Debentures to be redeemed, the Redemption Date or the Special Redemption Date, as
applicable, the Redemption Price or the Special Redemption Price, as applicable, at which Debentures are to be redeemed, the place
or places of payment, that payment will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Debentures, that interest accrued to the
date fixed for redemption will be paid as specified in said notice, and that on and after said date interest thereon or on the
portions thereof to be redeemed will cease to accrue. If less than all the Debentures are to be redeemed the notice of redemption
shall specify the numbers of the Debentures to be redeemed. In case the Debentures are to be redeemed in part only, the notice
of redemption shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to be redeemed and shall state that on and after the date
fixed for redemption, upon surrender of such Debenture, a new Debenture or Debentures in principal amount equal to the unredeemed
portion thereof will be issued.


 


Prior to 10:00 a.m. New
York City time on the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with
one or more paying agents an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the Redemption Date or the Special Redemption Date, as applicable,
all the Debentures so called for redemption at the appropriate Redemption Price or Special Redemption Price.




    	 	41	 



     


    

 


If all, or less than all,
the Debentures are to be redeemed, the Company will give the Trustee notice not less than 45 nor more than 60 days, respectively,
prior to the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, as to the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be
redeemed and the Trustee shall select, in such manner as in its sole discretion it shall deem appropriate and fair, the Debentures
or portions thereof (in integral multiples of $1,000.00) to be redeemed.


 


Section 10.4.          Payment
of Debentures Called for Redemption. If notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 10.3, the Debentures
or portions of Debentures with respect to which such notice has been given shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date
or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, and at the place or places stated in such notice at the applicable Redemption Price
or Special Redemption Price and on and after said date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of such Debentures at
the Redemption Price or Special Redemption Price, as applicable) interest on the Debentures or portions of Debentures so called
for redemption shall cease to accrue. On presentation and surrender of such Debentures at a place of payment specified in said
notice, such Debentures or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Redemption
Price or Special Redemption Price.


 


Upon presentation of any
Debenture redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to
the holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Debenture or Debentures of authorized denominations, in principal amount
equal to the unredeemed portion of the Debenture so presented.

CONSOLIDATION, MERGER, SALE, CONVEYANCE
AND LEASE


 


Section 11.1.          Company
May Consolidate, etc., on Certain Terms. Nothing contained in this Indenture or in the Debentures shall prevent any consolidation

or mergers in which the Company or its successor or successors shall be a party or parties, or shall prevent any sale, conveyance,
transfer or other disposition of the property of the Company or its successor or successors as an entirety, or substantially as
an entirety, to any other Person (whether or not affiliated with the Company, or its successor or successors) authorized to acquire
and operate the same; provided, however, that the Company hereby covenants and agrees that, upon any such consolidation,
merger (where the Company is not the surviving corporation), sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition, the due and punctual

and the due and punctual performance and observance of all of the covenants and conditions of this Indenture to be performed or
observed by the Company, such successor entity shall succeed to and be substituted for the Company, with the same effect as if
it had been named herein as the Company, and thereupon the predecessor entity shall be relieved of any further liability or obligation
hereunder or upon the Debentures. Such successor entity thereupon may cause to be signed, and may issue in its own name, any or
all of the Debentures issuable hereunder which theretofore shall not have been signed by the Company and delivered to the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent; and, upon the order of such successor entity instead of the Company and subject to all the terms,
conditions and limitations in this Indenture prescribed, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver
any Debentures which previously shall have been signed and delivered by the officers of the Company, to the Trustee or the Authenticating
Agent for authentication, and any Debentures which such successor entity thereafter shall cause to be signed and delivered to
the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for that purpose. All the Debentures so issued shall in all respects have the same legal
rank and benefit under this Indenture as the Debentures theretofore or thereafter issued in accordance with the terms of this
Indenture as though all of such Debentures had been issued at the date of the execution hereof.

of such Trust have so directed such Institutional Trustee, a holder of record of such Capital Securities may, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, institute legal proceedings directly against the Company to enforce such Institutional Trustee’s rights
under this Indenture without first instituting any legal proceedings against such trustee or any other Person. Notwithstanding

to pay interest (or premium, if any) or principal on the Debentures on the date such interest (or premium, if any) or principal
is otherwise payable (or in the case of redemption, on the redemption date), the Company agrees that a holder of record of Capital
Securities of the Trust may directly institute a proceeding against the Company for enforcement of payment to such holder directly
of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on the Debentures having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate
Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities of such holder on or after the respective due date specified in the Debentures.


 


ARTICLE XV.


SUBORDINATION OF DEBENTURES


 


Section 15.1.          Agreement to Subordinate. The Company covenants and agrees, and each holder of Debentures by such Securityholder’s
acceptance thereof likewise covenants and agrees, that all Debentures shall be issued subject to the provisions of this Article
XV; and each holder of a Debenture, whether upon original issue or upon transfer or assignment thereof, accepts and agrees to be
bound by such provisions.


 


The
payment by the Company of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on all Debentures shall, to the extent and in the
manner hereinafter set forth, be subordinated and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness
of the Company, whether outstanding at the date of this Indenture or thereafter incurred;
provided, however, that the Debentures shall rank pari passu in all
material respects with any current indebtedness, liabilities or obligations of the Company, or any Subsidiary of the Company,
under debt securities (or guarantees in respect of debt securities) issued to any trust, or a trustee of a trust, partnership
or other entity affiliated with the Company that is, directly or indirectly, a finance subsidiary (as such term is defined in
Rule 3a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940) or other financing vehicle of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company
in connection with the issuance by that entity of preferred securities or other securities that are eligible to qualify for Tier
1 capital treatment (or its then equivalent) for purposes of the capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve, as then in
effect and applicable to the Company.


 


No provision of this Article
XV shall prevent the occurrence of any default or Event of Default hereunder.


 


Section 15.2.          Default
on Senior Indebtedness. In the event and during the continuation of any default by the Company in the payment of principal,
premium, interest or any other payment due on any Senior Indebtedness of the Company following any grace period, or in the event
that the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness of the Company has been accelerated because of a default and such acceleration has
not been rescinded or canceled and such Senior Indebtedness has not been paid in full, then, in either case, no payment shall
be made by the Company with respect to the principal (including redemption) of, or premium, if any, or interest on the Debentures.


 






    	 	46	 



     


    

 


In the event that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, any payment shall be received by the Trustee when such payment is prohibited by the preceding paragraph of this
Section 15.2, such payment shall, subject to Section 15.7, be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered
to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their respective representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant
to which any of such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, but only to the extent
that the holders of the Senior Indebtedness (or their representative or representatives or a trustee) notify the Trustee in writing
within 90 days of such payment of the amounts then due and owing on the Senior Indebtedness and only the amounts specified in such
notice to the Trustee shall be paid to the holders of Senior Indebtedness.


 


Section 15.3.          Liquidation,
Dissolution, Bankruptcy. Upon any payment by the Company or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character,
whether in cash, property or securities, to creditors upon any dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization of the
Company, whether voluntary or involuntary or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings, all amounts due upon
all Senior Indebtedness of the Company shall first be paid in full, or payment thereof provided for in money in accordance with
its terms, before any payment is made by the Company, on account of the principal (and premium, if any) or interest on the Debentures.
Upon any such dissolution or winding-up or liquidation or reorganization, any payment by the Company, or distribution of assets
of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Securityholders or the Trustee
would be entitled to receive from the Company, except for the provisions of this Article XV, shall be paid by the Company, or
by any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, or by
the Securityholders or by the Trustee under this Indenture if received by them or it, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness
(pro rata to such holders on the basis of the respective amounts of Senior Indebtedness held by such holders, as calculated
by the Company) or their representative or representatives, or to the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which
any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, to the extent
necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full, in money or money’s worth, after giving effect to any concurrent payment
or distribution to or for the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, before any payment or distribution is made to the Securityholders
or to the Trustee.


 


In the event that, notwithstanding
the foregoing, any payment or distribution of assets of the Company of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities,
prohibited by the foregoing, shall be received by the Trustee before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full, or provision is made
for such payment in money in accordance with its terms, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of
and shall be paid over or delivered to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives, or to
the trustee or trustees under any indenture pursuant to which any instruments evidencing such Senior Indebtedness may have been
issued, as their respective interests may appear, as calculated by the Company, for application to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness,
remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such Senior Indebtedness in full in money in accordance with its terms, after giving
effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the benefit of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness.


 






    	 	47	 



     


    

 


For purposes of this Article
XV, the words “cash, property or securities” shall not be deemed to include shares of stock of the Company as reorganized
or readjusted, or securities of the Company or any other corporation provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment,
the payment of which is subordinated at least to the extent provided in this Article XV with respect to the Debentures to the payment
of all Senior Indebtedness, that may at the time be outstanding, provided that (i) such Senior Indebtedness is assumed by the new
corporation, if any, resulting from any such reorganization or readjustment, and (ii) the rights of the holders of such Senior
Indebtedness are not, without the consent of such holders, altered by such reorganization or readjustment. The consolidation of
the Company with, or the merger of the Company into, another corporation or the liquidation or dissolution of the Company following
the conveyance or transfer of its property as an entirety, or substantially as an entirety, to another corporation upon the terms
and conditions provided for in Article XI of this Indenture shall not be deemed a dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization
for the purposes of this Section if such other corporation shall, as a part of such consolidation, merger, conveyance or transfer,
comply with the conditions stated in Article XI of this Indenture. Nothing in Section 15.2 or in this Section shall apply to claims
of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.6 of this Indenture.


 


Section 15.4.
Subrogation. Subject to the payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness, the Securityholders shall be subrogated
to the rights of the holders of such Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of cash, property or securities of
the Company, applicable to such Senior Indebtedness until the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debentures
shall be paid in full. For the purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness
of any cash, property or securities to which the Securityholders or the Trustee would be entitled except for the provisions of
this Article XV, and no payment over pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV to or for the benefit of the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness by Securityholders or the Trustee, shall, as between the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior
Indebtedness of the Company, and the holders of the Debentures be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on
account of such Senior Indebtedness. It is understood that the provisions of this Article XV are and are intended solely for the
purposes of defining the relative rights of the holders of the Securities, on the one hand, and the holders of such Senior Indebtedness,
on the other hand.


 


Nothing contained in this
Article XV or elsewhere in this Indenture or in the Debentures is intended to or shall impair, as between the Company, its creditors
other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the holders of the Debentures, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute
and unconditional, to pay to the holders of the Debentures the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Debentures
as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative
rights of the holders of the Debentures and creditors of the Company, other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, nor shall
anything herein or therein prevent the Trustee or the holder of any Debenture from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted
by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XV of the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property or securities of the Company, received upon the exercise of any such remedy.


 


Upon any payment or distribution
of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XV, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture,
and the Securityholders shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction
in which such dissolution, winding-up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, or a certificate of the receiver,
trustee in bankruptcy, liquidation trustee, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to the Trustee
or to the Securityholders, for the purposes of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders
of Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid
or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XV.

Section 15.5.          Trustee
to Effectuate Subordination. Each Securityholder by such Securityholder’s acceptance thereof authorizes and directs
the Trustee on such Securityholder’s behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination
provided in this Article XV and appoints the Trustee such Securityholder’s attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.


 


Section 15.6.          Notice
by the Company. The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Principal
Office of the Trustee of any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee
in respect of the Debentures pursuant to the provisions of this Article XV. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XV
or any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of any facts that would
prohibit the making of any payment of monies to or by the Trustee in respect of the Debentures pursuant to the provisions of this
Article XV, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Principal Office of the Trustee shall have received written
notice thereof from the Company or a holder or holders of Senior Indebtedness or from any trustee therefor; and before the receipt
of any such written notice, the Trustee, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, shall be entitled in all respects
to assume that no such facts exist; provided, however, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided
for in this Section at least 2 Business Days prior to the date upon which by the terms hereof any money may become payable for
any purpose (including, without limitation, the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Debenture),
then, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such
money and to apply the same to the purposes for which they were received, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary
that may be received by it within 2 Business Days prior to such date.


 


The Trustee, subject to
the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, shall be entitled to conclusively rely on the delivery to it of a written notice
by a Person representing himself to be a holder of Senior Indebtedness (or a trustee or representative on behalf of such holder),
to establish that such notice has been given by a holder of such Senior Indebtedness or a trustee or representative on behalf of
any such holder or holders. In the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with respect
to the right of any Person as a holder of such Senior Indebtedness to participate in any payment or distribution pursuant to this
Article XV, the Trustee may request such Person to furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount
of such Senior Indebtedness held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such payment or
distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this Article XV, and, if such evidence is not furnished,
the Trustee may defer any payment to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such
payment.


 


Section 15.7.          Rights of the Trustee; Holders of Senior Indebtedness. The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled
to all the rights set forth in this Article XV in respect of any Senior Indebtedness at any time held by it, to the same extent
as any other holder of Senior Indebtedness, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee of any of its rights as such
holder.


 


With respect to the holders
of Senior Indebtedness, the Trustee undertakes to perform or to observe only such of its covenants and obligations as are specifically
set forth in this Article XV, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness shall
be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. The Trustee shall not be deemed to owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of such
Senior Indebtedness and, subject to the provisions of Article VI of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be liable to any holder
of such Senior Indebtedness if it shall pay over or deliver to Securityholders, the Company or any other Person money or assets
to which any holder of such Senior Indebtedness shall be entitled by virtue of this Article XV or otherwise.


 


Nothing in this Article
XV shall apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.6.


 




    	 	49	 



     


    

 


Section 15.8.          Subordination
May Not Be Impaired. No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein
provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of the Company, or by
any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company, with the terms, provisions
and covenants of this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or otherwise be charged with.


 


Without in any way limiting
the generality of the foregoing paragraph, the holders of Senior Indebtedness may, at any time and from time to time, without the
consent of or notice to the Trustee or the Securityholders, without incurring responsibility to the Securityholders and without
impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Article XV or the obligations hereunder of the holders of the Debentures
to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of payment
or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, such Senior Indebtedness, or otherwise amend or supplement in any manner such
Senior Indebtedness or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness is outstanding;
(ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing such Senior Indebtedness;
(iii) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of such Senior Indebtedness; and (iv) exercise or refrain from
exercising any rights against the Company, and any other Person.

Fixed/Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Deferrable
Interest Debenture


 


of


 


Coast Bancorp


 


September 20, 2007


 


Coast Bancorp, a California
corporation (the “Company” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for
value received promises to pay to Wilmington Trust Company, not in its individual capacity but solely as Institutional Trustee
for Coast Bancorp Statutory Trust II (the “Holder”) or registered assigns, the principal sum of seven million two hundred
seventeen thousand dollars ($7,217,000.00) on December 15, 2037, and to pay interest on said principal sum from September 20, 2007,
or from the most recent Interest Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, quarterly
(subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year or if such
day is not a Business Day, then the next succeeding Business Day (each such date, an “Interest Payment Date”) (it being
understood that interest accrues for any such non-Business Day during the applicable Distribution Period, beginning on or after
December 15, 2012), commencing on the Interest Payment Date in December 2007, at an annual rate equal to 6.388% beginning on (and
including) the date of original issuance and ending on (but excluding) the Interest Payment Date in December 2012 and at an annual
rate for each successive period beginning on (and including) the Interest Payment Date in December 2012, and each succeeding Interest
Payment Date, and ending on (but excluding) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date (each a “Distribution Period”),
equal to 3-Month LIBOR, determined as described below, plus 1.50% (the “Coupon Rate”), applied to the principal amount
hereof, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available for payment, and on any overdue principal and
(without duplication and to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment
of interest (including Additional Interest) at the Interest Rate in effect for each applicable period, compounded quarterly, from
the dates such amounts are due until they are paid or made available for payment. The amount of interest payable (i) for any Distribution
Period commencing on or after the date of original issuance but before the Interest Payment Date in December 2012 will be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, and (ii) for the Distribution Period commencing on the Interest Payment
Date in December 2012 and each succeeding Distribution Period will be computed on the basis of the actual number of days in the
Distribution Period concerned divided by 360. The interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on
any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such interest installment, which
shall be fifteen Business Days prior to the day on which the relevant Interest Payment Date occurs. Any such interest installment
not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such regular record date and may
be paid to the Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business
on a special record date.


 






    	 	A-2	 



     


    

 


“3-Month LIBOR”
as used herein, means the London interbank offered interest rate for three-month U.S. dollar deposits determined by the Trustee
in the following order of priority: (i) the rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month
maturity that appears on Reuters Page LIBOR01 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date (“Reuters
Page LIBOR01” means the display designated as “LIBOR01” on Reuters or such other page as may replace Reuters
Page LIBOR01 on that service or such other service or services as may be nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as
the information vendor for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits); (ii) if such rate
cannot be identified on the related Determination Date, the Trustee will request the principal London offices of four leading banks
in the London interbank market to provide such banks’ offered quotations (expressed as percentages per annum) to prime banks
in the London interbank market for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination
Date. If at least two quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations; (iii) if fewer than
two such quotations are provided as requested in clause (ii) above, the Trustee will request four major New York City banks to
provide such banks’ offered quotations (expressed as percentages per annum) to leading European banks for loans in U.S. dollars
as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Determination Date. If at least two such quotations are provided, 3-Month LIBOR will be
the arithmetic mean of such quotations; and (iv) if fewer than two such quotations are provided as requested in clause (iii) above,
3-Month LIBOR will be a 3-Month LIBOR determined with respect to the Distribution Period immediately preceding such current Distribution
Period. If the rate for U.S. dollar deposits having a three-month maturity that initially appears on Reuters Page LIBOR01 as of
11:00 a.m. (London time) on the related Determination Date is superseded on the Reuters Page LIBOR01 by a corrected rate by 12:00
noon (London time) on such Determination Date, then the corrected rate as so substituted on the applicable page will be the applicable
3-Month LIBOR for such Determination Date. As used herein, “Determination Date” means the date that is two London Banking
Days (i.e., a business day in which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank market) preceding
the commencement of the relevant Distribution Period.


 


The Interest Rate for any
Distribution Period will at no time be higher than the maximum rate then permitted by New York law as the same may be modified
by United States law.


 


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


 






    	 	A-3	 



     


    

 


The principal of and interest
on this Debenture shall be payable at the office or agency of the Trustee (or other paying agent appointed by the Company) maintained
for that purpose in any coin or currency of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the registered
holder at such address as shall appear in the Debenture Register if a request for a wire transfer by such holder has not been received
by the Company or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the holder hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
so long as the holder of this Debenture is the Institutional Trustee, the payment of the principal of and interest on this Debenture
will be made in immediately available funds at such place and to such account as may be designated by the Trustee.


 


So long as no Acceleration
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right, from time to time, and without causing an Event
of Default, to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the interest payment period on the Debentures at any time
and from time to time during the term of the Debentures, for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods (each such extended interest
payment period, an “Extension Period”), during which Extension Period no interest (including Additional Interest) shall
be due and payable (except any Additional Sums that may be due and payable). No Extension Period may end on a date other than an
Interest Payment Date. During an Extension Period, interest will continue to accrue on the Debentures, and interest on such accrued
interest will accrue at an annual rate equal to the Interest Rate in effect for such Extension Period, compounded quarterly from
the date such interest would have been payable were it not for the Extension Period, to the extent permitted by law (such interest
referred to herein as “Additional Interest”). At the end of any such Extension Period the Company shall pay all interest
then accrued and unpaid on the Debentures (together with Additional Interest thereon); provided, however, that no
Extension Period may extend beyond the Maturity Date; provided further, however, that during any such Extension
Period, the Company shall not and shall not permit any Affiliate to engage in any of the activities or transactions described on
the reverse side hereof and in the Indenture. Prior to the termination of any Extension Period, the Company may further extend
such period, provided that such period together with all such previous and further consecutive extensions thereof shall not exceed
20 consecutive quarterly periods, or extend beyond the Maturity Date. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and upon the
payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest, the Company may commence a new Extension Period, subject to
the foregoing requirements. No interest or Additional Interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the
end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise have been due and payable during such Extension Period shall
bear Additional Interest. The Company must give the Trustee notice of its election to begin or extend an Extension Period by the
close of business at least 15 Business Days prior to the Interest Payment Date with respect to which interest on the Debentures
would have been payable except for the election to begin or extend such Extension Period.


 


The indebtedness evidenced
by this Debenture is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment
in full of all Senior Indebtedness, and this Debenture is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto.
Each holder of this Debenture, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions, (b) authorizes and directs
the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the subordination
so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his or her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each holder hereof, by his
or her acceptance hereof, hereby waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the
Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such
holder upon said provisions.

This Debenture shall not

Debenture are continued on the reverse side hereof and such provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully
set forth at this place.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF DEBENTURE]


 


This Debenture is one of
the fixed/floating rate junior subordinated deferrable interest debentures of the Company, all issued or to be issued under and
pursuant to the Indenture dated as of September 20, 2007 (the “Indenture”), duly executed and delivered between the
Company and the Trustee, to which Indenture reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of rights, obligations,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the Company and the holders of the Debentures. The Debentures are limited in aggregate
principal amount as specified in the Indenture.


 


Upon the occurrence and
continuation of a Special Event prior to the Interest Payment Date in December 2012, the Company shall have the right to redeem
the Debentures in whole, but not in part, at any Interest Payment Date, within 120 days following the occurrence of such Special
Event, at the Special Redemption Price.


 


In addition, the Company
shall have the right to redeem the Debentures, in whole or in part, but in all cases in a principal amount with integral multiples
of $1,000.00, on any Interest Payment Date on or after the Interest Payment Date in December 2012, at the Redemption Price.


 


Prior to 10:00 a.m. New
York City time on the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with
one or more paying agents an amount of money sufficient to redeem on the Redemption Date or the Special Redemption Date, as applicable,
all the Debentures so called for redemption at the appropriate Redemption Price or Special Redemption Price.


 


If all, or less than all,
the Debentures are to be redeemed, the Company will give the Trustee notice not less than 45 nor more than 60 days, respectively,
prior to the Redemption Date or Special Redemption Date, as applicable, as to the aggregate principal amount of Debentures to be
redeemed and the Trustee shall select, in such manner as in its sole discretion it shall deem appropriate and fair, the Debentures
or portions thereof (in integral multiples of $1,000.00) to be redeemed.


 


Notwithstanding the foregoing,
any redemption of Debentures by the Company shall be subject to the receipt of any and all required regulatory approvals.


 


In case an Acceleration
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon demand of the Trustee, the principal of all of the Debentures shall
become due and payable in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.


 


The Indenture contains
provisions permitting the Company and the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding, to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of adding any provisions
to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying
in any manner the rights of the holders of the Debentures; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture
shall without the consent of the holders of each Debenture then outstanding and affected thereby (i) change the fixed maturity
of any Debenture, or reduce the principal amount thereof or any premium thereon, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment
of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption thereof or make the principal thereof or any interest or premium
thereon payable in any coin or currency other than that provided in the Debentures, or impair or affect the right of any Securityholder
to institute suit for payment thereof or impair the right of repayment, if any, at the option of the holder, or (ii) reduce the
aforesaid percentage of Debentures the holders of which are required to consent to any such supplemental indenture.


 




    	 	A-7	 



     


    

 


The Indenture also contains
provisions permitting the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the time outstanding on behalf
of the holders of all of the Debentures to waive (or modify any previously granted waiver of) any past default or Event of Default,
and its consequences, except a default (a) in the payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any of the Debentures,
(b) in respect of covenants or provisions hereof or of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of
the holder of each Debenture affected, or (c) in respect of the covenants contained in Section 3.9 of the Indenture; provided,
however, that if the Debentures are held by the Trust or a trustee of such trust, such waiver or modification to such waiver
shall not be effective until the holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented
to such waiver or modification to such waiver, provided, further, that if the consent of the holder of each outstanding
Debenture is required, such waiver shall not be effective until each holder of the Trust Securities of the Trust shall have consented
to such waiver. Upon any such waiver, the default covered thereby shall be deemed to be cured for all purposes of the Indenture
and the Company, the Trustee and the holders of the Debentures shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder,
respectively; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent
thereon. Whenever any default or Event of Default hereunder shall have been waived as permitted by the Indenture, said default
or Event of Default shall for all purposes of the Debentures and the Indenture be deemed to have been cured and to be not continuing.


 


No reference herein to
the Indenture and no provision of this Debenture or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which
is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and premium, if any, and interest, including Additional Interest, on this
Debenture at the time and place and at the rate and in the money herein prescribed.


 


The Company has agreed
that if Debentures are initially issued to the Trust or a trustee of such Trust in connection with the issuance of Trust Securities
by the Trust (regardless of whether Debentures continue to be held by such Trust) and (i) there shall have occurred and be continuing
an Event of Default, (ii) the Company shall be in default with respect to its payment of any obligations under the Capital Securities
Guarantee, or (iii) the Company shall have given notice of its election to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending
the interest payment period as provided herein and such Extension Period, or any extension thereof, shall be continuing, then
the Company shall not, and shall not allow any Affiliate of the Company to, (x) declare or pay any dividends or distributions
on, or redeem, purchase, acquire, or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s capital stock or its
Affiliates’ capital stock (other than payments of dividends or distributions to the Company or payments of dividends from
direct or indirect subsidiaries of the Company to their parent corporations, which also shall be direct or indirect subsidiaries
of the Company) or make any guarantee payments with respect to the foregoing or (y) make any payment of principal of or interest
or premium, if any, on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company or any Affiliate that rank pari passu
in all respects with or junior in interest to the Debentures (other than, with respect to clauses (x) and (y) above, (1) repurchases,
redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit
plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in connection
with a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of the Company
(or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered
into prior to the applicable Extension Period, if any, (2) as a result of any exchange or conversion of any class or series of
the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s
capital stock or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital
stock, (3) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange
provisions of such capital stock or the security being converted or exchanged, (4) any declaration of a dividend in connection
with any stockholders’ rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any stockholders’ rights
plan, or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, (5) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or
other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same
stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock and any cash payments
in lieu of fractional shares issued in connection therewith, (6) payments of principal or interest on debt securities or payments
of cash dividends or distributions on any capital stock issued by an Affiliate that is not, in whole or in part, a subsidiary
of the Company (or any redemptions, repurchases or liquidation payments on such stock or securities), or (7) payments under the
Capital Securities Guarantee).

The Debentures are issuable
only in registered, certificated form without coupons and in minimum denominations of $100,000.00 and any multiple of $1,000.00
in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and subject to the transfer restrictions and limitations as may be contained herein
and therein from time to time, this Debenture is transferable by the holder hereof on the Debenture Register of the Company. Upon
due presentment for registration of transfer of any Debenture at the Principal Office of the Trustee or at any office or agency
of the Company maintained for such purpose as provided in Section 3.2 of the Indenture, the Company shall execute, the Company
or the Trustee shall register and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and make available for delivery in
the name of the transferee or transferees a new Debenture for a like aggregate principal amount. All Debentures presented for registration
of transfer or for exchange or payment shall (if so required by the Company or the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent) be duly
endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument or instruments of transfer in form satisfactory to, the Company and the
Trustee or the Authenticating Agent duly executed by the holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. No service charge shall
be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Debentures, but the Company or the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax, fee or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.


 


Prior to due presentment
for registration of transfer of any Debenture, the Company, the Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any paying agent, any transfer
agent and any Debenture registrar may deem the Person in whose name such Debenture shall be registered upon the Debenture Register
to be, and may treat him as, the absolute owner of such Debenture (whether or not such Debenture shall be overdue) for the purpose
of receiving payment of or on account of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such Debenture and for all other purposes;
and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent nor any paying agent nor any transfer agent nor any Debenture
registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. All such payments so made to any holder for the time being or upon his
order shall be valid, and, to the extent of the sum or sums so paid, effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability for moneys
payable upon any such Debenture.


 


No recourse for the payment
of the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on any Debenture, or for any claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof,
and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the Company in the Indenture or in any supplemental indenture,
or in any such Debenture, or because of the creation of any indebtedness represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator,
stockholder, employee, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Company or of any successor Person of the
Company, either directly or through the Company or any successor Person of the Company, whether by virtue of any constitution,
statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, it being expressly understood that all
such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of the Indenture
and the issue of the Debentures.
