 1. The trust created hereby shall be known as “Cullen/Frost Capital
Trust II” (the “Trust”), in which name the Delaware Trustee or the Depositor, to the extent provided herein, may conduct the business of the Trust, make and execute contracts, and sue and be sued. 
  
 2. The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the
Trust the sum of $10. Such amount shall constitute the initial trust estate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Trust created hereby constitute a statutory trust under Chapter 38 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code, 12 Del. C.
§ 3801, et seq. (the “Statutory Trust Act”), and that this document constitute the governing instrument of the Trust. The Delaware Trustee is hereby authorized and directed to execute and file a certificate of trust with
the Delaware Secretary of State in such form as the Delaware Trustee may approve. 
  
 3. The Depositor and the Delaware Trustee will enter into an amended and restated Trust Agreement or Declaration satisfactory to each such party to provide for the contemplated operation of the Trust created hereby
and the issuance of the Capital Securities and Common Securities referred to therein. Prior to the execution and delivery of such amended and restated Trust Agreement or Declaration, the Delaware Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation
hereunder or with respect of the trust estate, except as otherwise required by applicable law or as may be necessary to obtain prior to such execution and delivery any licenses, consents or approvals required by applicable law or otherwise.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Delaware Trustee may take all actions deemed proper as are necessary to effect the transactions contemplated herein. 
  
 4. The Depositor, as agent of the Trust, is hereby authorized, in its discretion, (i) to prepare one or more offering memoranda in preliminary and final
form relating to the offering and sale of Capital Securities of the Trust in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and such other forms or filings as may be
required by the 1933 Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, in each case relating to the Capital Securities of the Trust; (ii) to file and execute on behalf of the Trust, such
applications, reports, surety bonds, irrevocable consents, appointments of attorney for service of process and other papers and documents that shall be necessary or desirable to register or establish the exemption from registration of the Capital
Securities of the Trust under the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of such jurisdictions as the Depositor, on behalf of the Trust, may deem necessary or desirable; (iii) to execute and file an application, and all other applications,
statements, certificates, agreements and other instruments that shall be necessary or desirable, to the Private Offerings, Resales and 

  

 1

other national stock exchange or the Nasdaq National Market for listing or quotation of the Capital Securities of the Trust; (iv) to execute and deliver letters or documents to, or instruments for filing with, a depository relating to the Capital
Securities of the Trust; and (v) to execute, deliver and perform on behalf of the Trust one or more purchase agreements, registration rights agreements, dealer manager agreements, escrow agreements and other related agreements providing for or
relating to the sale of the Capital Securities of the Trust. 
  
 5. This Trust Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts. 
  
 6. The number of trustees of the Trust initially shall be one and thereafter the number of trustees of the Trust shall be such number as shall be fixed from time to time by a written instrument signed by the Depositor
which may increase or decrease the number of trustees of the Trust; provided, however, that to the extent required by the Statutory Trust Act, one trustee of the Trust shall either be a natural person who is a resident of the State of Delaware or,
if not a natural person, an entity which has its principal place of business in the State of Delaware. Subject to the foregoing, the Depositor is entitled to appoint or remove without cause any trustee of the Trust at any time. Any trustee of the
Trust may resign upon thirty days’ prior notice to the Depositor. 
  
 7. This Trust Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to conflict of laws principles). 
  
 8. The Trust may be terminated without issuing any Trust securities at the election of the Depositor. 
  
 9. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Depositor shall
indemnify and hold harmless the Delaware Trustee from and against any loss, damage or claim incurred by the Delaware Trustee and any of its officers, directors, employees and agents of the Delaware Trustee by reason of any act or omission performed
or omitted by the Delaware Trustee in good faith on behalf of the Trust and in a matter the Delaware Trustee reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on the Delaware Trustee by this Trust Agreement, including the costs and
expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against, or investigating, any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder, except that the Delaware Trustee
shall not be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by the Delaware Trustee by reason of gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions. The provisions of this Section 9 shall
survive the termination of this Trust Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the Delaware Trustee.

 DISTRIBUTIONS; REDEMPTION 
  
 Section 4.1 Distributions. 
  
 (a) The Trust Securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the Trust Property, and Distributions (including of Additional Amounts and/or
Registration Default Distributions, if applicable) will be made on the Trust Securities at the rate and on the dates that payments of interest (including of Additional Interest, as defined in the Indenture) are made on the Debentures. Accordingly:

  
 (i) Distributions on the Trust Securities
shall be cumulative, and will accumulate whether or not there are funds of the Trust available for the payment of Distributions. Distributions shall accumulate from February 13, 2004, and, except in the event (and to the extent) that the Depositor
exercises its right to defer the payment of interest on the Debentures pursuant to the Indenture, shall be payable quarterly in arrears on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2004. If any date on which a
Distribution is otherwise payable on the Trust Securities is not a Payment Business Day, then the payment of such Distribution shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Payment Business Day, unless such day falls in the next calendar month,
in which case the date on which such Distribution is payable shall be the immediately preceding Payment Business Day (each date on which distributions are payable in accordance with this Section 4.1(a), a “Distribution Date”).

  
 (ii) The Trust Securities shall be entitled
to Distributions payable on the Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities at the Distribution Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Registration Default, Registration Default Distributions shall be payable on the Trust Securities
in the amount and on the terms provided in the Registration Rights Agreement, assuming that payments of Registration Default Interest on the Debentures are made when due. The amount of Distributions payable for any period shall be computed on the
basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. The amount of Distributions payable for any Distribution Period shall include any Additional Amounts, if any, and Registration Default Distributions in respect of such period.

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

  
 (b) Distributions on the Trust Securities with respect to a

 Section 4.2 Redemption. 
  
 (a) On each Debenture Redemption Date and on the stated maturity of the Debentures, the Issuer Trust will be required to
redeem a Like Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption Price. 
  
 (b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Trust Securities to be redeemed, at such
Holder’s address appearing in the Security Register. All notices of redemption shall state: 
  
 (i) the Redemption Date; 
  
 (ii) the Redemption Price, or if the Redemption Price cannot be calculated prior to the time the notice is required to be sent, the
estimate of the Redemption Price together with a statement that it is an estimate and that the actual Redemption Price will be calculated on the third Business Day prior to the Redemption Date (and if an estimate is provided, a further notice shall
be sent of the actual Redemption Price on the date that such Redemption Price is calculated); 
  
 (iii) the CUSIP number or CUSIP numbers of the Capital Securities affected; 
  
 (iv) if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to be redeemed, the identification and the
aggregate Liquidation Amount of the particular Trust Securities to be redeemed; 
  
 (v) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such Trust Security to be redeemed and that
Distributions thereon will cease to accumulate on and after said date, except as provided in Section 4.2(d) below; and 
  
 (vi) the place or places where the Trust Securities are to be surrendered for the payment of the Redemption Price. 
  
 The Trust in issuing the Trust Securities may use “CUSIP” or
“private placement” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Property Trustee shall indicate the “CUSIP” or “private placement” numbers of the Trust Securities in notices of redemption and related materials
as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Trust Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption and related
materials. 
  
 (c) The Trust Securities redeemed on each
Redemption Date shall be redeemed at the Redemption Price with the proceeds from the contemporaneous redemption of Debentures. Redemptions of the Trust Securities shall be made and the Redemption Price shall be payable on each Redemption Date only
to the extent that the Issuer Trust has funds 

  

 -20- 

 
then on hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Redemption Price. 
  
 (d) If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption in respect of any Capital Securities, then, by 12:00 noon, New York
City time, on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 4.2(c), the Property Trustee will, with respect to Book-Entry Capital Securities, irrevocably deposit with the Clearing Agency for such Book-Entry Capital Securities, to the extent available
therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give such Clearing Agency irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Capital Securities. With respect to Capital Securities that
are not Book-Entry Capital Securities, the Property Trustee, subject to Section 4.2(c), will irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent, to the extent available therefor, funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give the
Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the Holders of the Capital Securities upon surrender of their Capital Securities Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributions payable on or prior to the
Redemption Date for any Trust Securities called for redemption shall be payable to the Holders of such Trust Securities as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust Securities on the relevant record dates for the related Distribution
Dates. If notice of redemption shall have been given and funds deposited as required, then upon the date of such deposit, all rights of Holders holding Trust Securities so called for redemption will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive
the Redemption Price and any Distribution payable in respect of the Trust Securities on or prior to the Redemption Date, but without interest, and such Trust Securities will cease to be outstanding. In the event that a Redemption Date is not a
Payment Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Payment Business Day, unless such day falls in the next calendar month, in which case the date on which the Redemption
Price is payable will be the immediately preceding Payment Business Day. In the event that payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Trust Securities called for redemption is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Issuer
Trust or by the Depositor pursuant to the Guarantee Agreement, Distributions on such Trust Securities will continue to accumulate, as set forth in Section 4.1, from the Redemption Date originally established by the Issuer Trust for such Trust
Securities to the date such Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual payment date will be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price. 
  
 (e) Subject to Section 4.3(a), if less than all the Outstanding Trust
Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities to be redeemed shall be allocated pro rata to the Common Securities and the Capital Securities based upon the relative Liquidation
Amounts of such classes. The particular Capital Securities to be redeemed shall be selected on a pro rata basis based upon their respective Liquidation Amounts not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Property Trustee from
the Outstanding Capital Securities not previously called for redemption, provided that so long as the Capital Securities are in book-entry-only form, such selection shall be made in accordance with the customary procedures for the Clearing
Agency for the Capital Securities, and provided further that, after giving effect to such redemption, no Holder shall hold Capital Securities with an aggregate Liquidation Amount of less than $100,000. The Property Trustee shall promptly
notify the Securities Registrar in 

  

 -21- 

 
writing of the Capital Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Capital Securities selected for partial redemption, the Liquidation Amount
thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Capital Securities shall relate, in the case of any Capital Securities redeemed or to be redeemed
only in part, to the portion of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Capital Securities that has been or is to be redeemed.

provided, however, that if on any Distribution Date, Redemption Date or Liquidation Date any Event of Default resulting from a Debenture Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2) of the Indenture shall have occurred and be

if applicable) on all Outstanding Capital Securities for all Distribution Periods terminating on or prior thereto, or in the case of payment of the Redemption Price the full amount of such Redemption Price on all Outstanding Capital Securities then
called for redemption, or in the case of payment of the Liquidation Distribution the full amount of such Liquidation Distribution on all Outstanding Capital Securities, shall have been made or provided for, and all funds immediately available to the
Property Trustee shall first be applied to the payment in full in cash of all Distributions (including any Additional Amounts and/or Registration Default Distributions, if applicable) on, or the Redemption Price of, the Capital Securities then due
and payable. 
  
 (b) In the case of the occurrence of any Event of
Default resulting from any Debenture Event of Default, the Holders of the Common Securities shall have no right to act with respect to any such Event of Default under this Trust Agreement until the effect of all such Events of Default with respect
to the Capital Securities have been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated. Until all such Events of Default under this Trust Agreement with respect to the Capital Securities have been so cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, the Property Trustee

Relating to Size of Blocks. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, Capital Securities may only be transferred or exchanged in blocks having a Liquidation Amount of not less than $100,000. In addition, Capital Securities may
not be transferred or exchanged by any Holder if, following such transfer or exchange, such Holder would have Capital Securities with an aggregate Liquidation Amount of less than $100,000. Any transfer, exchange or other disposition of Capital
Securities in contravention of this Section 5.5(b)(v) shall be deemed to be void and of no legal effect whatsoever, any such transferee shall be deemed not to be the Holder or Owner of such Capital Security for any purpose, including but not limited
to the receipt of Distributions on such Capital Securities, and such transferee shall be deemed to have no interest whatsoever in such Capital Securities. 
  
 (c) Except as set forth below, all Capital Securities Certificates and their respective Successor Capital Securities Certificates shall bear a Restricted
Capital Securities Legend: 
  
 (i) subject to the
following clauses of this Section 5.5(c), a Capital Securities Certificate or any portion thereof that is exchanged, upon transfer or otherwise, for a Book-Entry Capital Securities Certificate or any portion thereof shall bear the Restricted Capital
Securities Legend borne by such Global Capital Securities Certificate while represented thereby; 
  
 (ii) subject to the following Clauses of this Section 5.5(c), a new Capital Securities Certificate that is not a Book-Entry Capital
Securities Certificate and is issued in exchange for another Capital Securities Certificate (including a Book-Entry Capital Securities Certificate) or any portion thereof, upon transfer or otherwise, 

  

 -29- 

 
shall, bear the Restricted Capital Securities Legend borne by such other Capital Securities Certificate; 
  
 (iii) a new Capital Securities Certificate that does not
bear a Restricted Capital Securities Legend may be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Capital Securities Certificate (other than a Book-Entry Capital Securities Certificate) or any portion thereof that bears such a legend if, in the
Depositor’s judgment, placing such a legend upon such new Capital Securities Certificate is not necessary to ensure compliance with the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the Administrative Trustees, at the direction of the
Depositor, shall execute and deliver such a new Capital Securities Certificate as provided in this Article V; 
  
 (iv) a Capital Securities Certificate that evidences New Capital Securities shall not bear a Restricted Capital Securities Legend;

  
 (v) a Capital Securities Certificate that
evidences Original Capital Securities that are sold or otherwise disposed of pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act (including the shelf registration statement contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement),
together with any Successor Capital Securities Certificate with respect thereto, shall not bear a Restricted Capital Securities Legend; the Depositor or an Administrative Trustee shall inform the Property Trustee in writing of the effective date of
any such registration statement registering the Original Capital Securities under the Securities Act and shall notify the Property Trustee at any time when prospectuses may not be delivered with respect to Original Capital Securities to be sold
pursuant to such registration statement; the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the aforementioned registration statement; 
  
 (vi) at any time after the Original Capital Securities may
be freely transferred without registration under the Securities Act or without being subject to transfer restrictions imposed thereon by the Securities Act, a new Capital Securities Certificate that does not bear a Restricted Securities Legend may
be issued in exchange for or in lieu of a Capital Securities Certificate (other than a Global Capital Securities Certificate) or any portion thereof that bears such a legend if the Securities Registrar has received an Unrestricted Securities
Certificate, satisfactory to the Securities Registrar and duly executed by the Holder of such legended Capital Securities Certificate or his attorney duly authorized in writing; and 
  
 (vii) notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.5(c), a Successor Capital Securities
Certificate of a Capital Securities Certificate that does not bear a Restricted Capital Securities Legend shall not bear such form of legend unless the Depositor has reasonable cause to believe that such Successor Capital Securities Certificate is a
“restricted security” within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act. 
  
 (d) Before registering for transfer or exchange any Capital Securities Certificates issued in certificated fully registered form as provided in Sections
5.2, 5.4 or 5.5 of the Trust 

  

 -30- 

 
Agreement, the Property Trustee as Securities Registrar may require an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence satisfactory to it (which may include a
certificate from such purchaser or Holder) that such purchaser or Holder is eligible for the exemptive relief available under U.S. Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 or
84-14 or another applicable exemption with respect to such purchase or holding and, in the case of any purchaser or Holder relying on any exemption other than PTCE 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 or 84-14, an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence
satisfactory to the Property Trustee with respect to the availability of such exemption. Any purchaser or Holder of any Capital Securities or any interest therein will be deemed to have represented by its purchase and holding thereof that it either
(i) is not a Plan or a Plan Asset Entity and is not purchasing such Capital Securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan, or (ii) is eligible for the exemptive relief available under PTCE 96-23, 95-60, 91-38, 90-1 or 84-14 or
another applicable exemption with respect to such purchase or holding. 
  
 Section 5.6 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Securities Certificates. 
  
 If (a) any mutilated Trust Securities Certificate shall be surrendered to the Securities Registrar, or if the Securities Registrar shall receive evidence
to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Securities Certificate, and (b) there shall be delivered to the Securities Registrar and the Administrative Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save
each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Trust Securities Certificate shall have been acquired by a protected purchaser, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, on behalf of the Issuer Trust shall execute and the
Property Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Securities Certificate, a new Trust Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination.
In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Securities Certificate under this Section 5.6, the Administrative Trustees or the Securities Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Trust Securities Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Issuer Trust corresponding to that
evidenced by the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities Certificate, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities Certificate shall be found at any time. 
  
 Section 5.7 Persons Deemed Holders. 
  
 The Issuer Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall each treat the Person
in whose name any Trust Securities Certificate shall be registered in the Securities Register as the owner of such Trust Securities Certificate for the purpose of receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Issuer
Trustees and the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary. 
  
  

 -31- 

 Section 5.8 Access to List of Holders’ Names and Addresses. 
  
 Each Holder and each Owner shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold the
Depositor or the Issuer Trustees accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived. 
  
 Section 5.9 Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
  
 The Property Trustee shall designate, with the consent of the Administrative Trustees, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Capital Securities Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Issuer Trustees in respect of the Trust
Securities Certificates may be served. The Property Trustee initially designates The Bank of New York, 101 Barclay Street, Floor 8W, New York, New York 10286, Attention: Corporate Trust Administration, as its office and agency for such purposes. The
Property Trustee shall give prompt written notice to the Depositor, the Administrative Trustees and to the Holders of any change in the location of the Securities Register or any such office or agency. 
  
 Section 5.10 Appointment of Paying Agent. 
  
 The Paying Agent shall make Distributions to Holders from the Payment Account
and shall report the amounts of such Distributions to the Property Trustee and the Administrative Trustees. Any Paying Agent shall have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Payment Account solely for the purpose of making the Distributions
referred to above. The Property Trustee may revoke such power and remove the Paying Agent in its sole discretion. The Paying Agent shall initially be the Bank and any co-paying agent chosen by the Bank and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
Trustees. Any Person acting as Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee. If the Bank shall no longer be the Paying Agent or a successor Paying
Agent shall resign or its authority to act be revoked, the Property Trustee shall appoint a successor (which shall be a bank or trust company) that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Trustees to act as Paying Agent. Such successor Paying
Agent or any additional Paying Agent shall execute and deliver to the Issuer Trustees an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Issuer Trustees that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying
Agent or additional Paying Agent will hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Holders in trust for the benefit of the Holders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Holders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed
funds to the Property Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The provisions of Sections 8.1, 8.3 and 8.6 herein shall apply to the Bank also in its role as
Paying Agent, for so long as the Bank shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context
requires otherwise. 
  

 -32- 

 Section 5.11 Ownership of Common Securities by Depositor. 
  
 At the Time of Delivery, the Depositor shall acquire, and thereafter shall
retain, beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities. The Depositor may not transfer the Common Securities except (i) in connection with a consolidation or merger of the Depositor into another Person, or any conveyance, transfer or lease
by the Depositor of its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, pursuant to Section 8.1 of the Indenture, or (ii) to the Depositor or an Affiliate thereof in compliance with applicable law (including the Securities Act and
applicable state securities and blue sky laws). To the fullest extent permitted by law, any attempted transfer of the Common Securities other than as set forth in the next proceeding sentence shall be void. The Administrative Trustees shall cause
each Common Securities Certificate issued to the Depositor to contain a legend stating substantially “TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THIS CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT TO THE DEPOSITOR OR AN AFFILIATE OF THE
DEPOSITOR IN COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW AND SECTION 5.11 OF THE TRUST AGREEMENT.” 
  
 Section 5.12 Notices to Clearing Agency. 
  
 To the extent that a notice or other communication to the Holders is required under this Trust Agreement, for so long as Capital Securities are represented by a Book-Entry Capital Securities Certificate, the
Administrative Trustees and the Issuer Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to the Clearing Agency, and shall have no obligations to the Owners. 
  
 Section 5.13 Rights of Holders; Waivers of Past Defaults. 

 
 (a) The legal title to the Trust Property is vested exclusively in the
Property Trustee (in its capacity as such) in accordance with Section 2.9, and the Holders shall not have any right or title therein other than the undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Issuer Trust conferred by their Trust Securities
and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Issuer Trust except as described below. The Trust Securities shall be personal property giving only the rights specifically set forth therein
and in this Trust Agreement. The Trust Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights, and, when issued and delivered to Holders against payment of the purchase price therefore, will be fully paid, and in the case of the Capital Securities,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, nonassessable by the Issuer Trust. The Holders of the Capital Securities, in their capacities as such, shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private
corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. 
  
 (b) For so long as any Capital Securities remain Outstanding, if, upon a Debenture Event of Default, the Debenture Trustee fails or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Debentures
fail to declare the principal of all of the Debentures to be immediately due and payable, the Holders of at least 25% in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities then Outstanding shall have the right to make such 

  

 -33- 

 
declaration by a notice in writing to the Property Trustee, the Depositor and the Debenture Trustee. 
  
 At any time after a declaration of acceleration with respect to the
Debentures has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Debenture Trustee as in the Indenture provided, if the Property Trustee fails to annul any such declaration and waive such default, the
Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities, by written notice to the Property Trustee, the Depositor and the Debenture Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if: 
  
 (i) the Depositor has paid or deposited with the Debenture
Trustee a sum sufficient to pay 
  
 (A) all
overdue installments of interest on all of the Debentures, 
  
 (B) any accrued Additional Interest on all of the Debentures, 
  
 (C) the principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Debentures that have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and
interest and Additional Interest thereon at the rate borne by the Debentures, and 
  
 (D) all sums paid or advanced by the Debenture Trustee under the Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and
advances of the Debenture Trustee and the Property Trustee, their agents and counsel; and 
  
 (ii) all Events of Default with respect to the Debentures, other than the non-payment of the principal of the Debentures that has become
due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.13 of the Indenture. 
  
 The Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Capital Securities, waive any
past default under the Indenture, except a default in the payment of principal or interest (unless such default has been cured and a sum sufficient to pay all matured installments of interest and principal due otherwise than by acceleration has been
deposited with the Debenture Trustee) or a default in respect of a covenant or provision that under the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Debenture. No such rescission shall affect any
subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 Upon receipt by the Property Trustee of written notice declaring such an acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, by Holders of any part of the Capital Securities a record date shall be established for determining Holders of
Outstanding Capital Securities entitled to join in such notice, which record date shall be at the close of business on the day the Property Trustee receives such notice. The Holders on such record date, or their duly designated proxies, and only
such Persons, shall be entitled to join in such notice, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided that, unless such declaration of 

  

 -34- 

 
acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall have become effective by virtue of the requisite percentage having joined in such notice
prior to the day that is 90 days after such record date, such notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment, as the case may be, shall automatically and without further action by any Holder be canceled and of no further effect.
Nothing in this paragraph shall prevent a Holder, or a proxy of a Holder, from giving, after expiration of such 90-day period, a new written notice of declaration of acceleration, or rescission and annulment thereof, as the case may be, that is
identical to a written notice that has been canceled pursuant to the proviso to the preceding sentence, in which event a new record date shall be established pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.13(b). 
  
 (c) For so long as any Capital Securities remain Outstanding, to the fullest
extent permitted by law and subject to the terms of this Trust Agreement and the Indenture, upon a Debenture Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2) of the Indenture, any Holder of Capital Securities shall have the right to institute
a proceeding directly against the Depositor, pursuant to Section 5.8 of the Indenture, for enforcement of payment to such Holder of any amounts payable in respect of Debentures having an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation
Amount of the Capital Securities of such Holder (a “Direct Action”). Except as set forth in Section 5.13(b) and this Section 5.13(c), the Holders of Capital Securities shall have no right to exercise directly any right or remedy
available to the holders of, or in respect of, the Debentures. 
  
 (d) Except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 5.13, the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities may, on behalf of the Holders of all the Capital Securities, waive any
past default or Event of Default and its consequences. Upon such waiver, any such default or Event of Default shall cease to exist, and any default or Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this
Trust Agreement, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. 
  
 ARTICLE VI 
  
 ACTS OF HOLDERS; MEETINGS; VOTING 
  
 Section 6.1 Limitations on Voting Rights. 
  
 (a) Except as expressly provided in this Trust Agreement and in the Indenture and as otherwise required by law, no Holder of
Capital Securities shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the administration, operation and management of the Issuer Trust or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the
terms of the Trust Securities Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Holders from time to time as partners or members of an association. 
  
 (b) So long as any Debentures are held by the Property Trustee on behalf of the Issuer Trust, the Property Trustee shall not (i) direct the time, method
and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Debenture Trustee, or execute any 

  

 -35- 

 
trust or power conferred on the Debenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures, (ii) waive any past default that may be waived under Section 5.13 of the
Indenture, (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable, or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Debentures, where such
consent shall be required, without, in each case, obtaining the prior approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities, provided, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require
the consent of each Holder of Debentures affected thereby, no such consent shall be given by the Property Trustee without the prior written consent of each Holder of Capital Securities. The Property Trustee shall not revoke any action previously
authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of the Capital Securities, except by a subsequent vote of the Holders of the Capital Securities. The Property Trustee shall notify all Holders of the Capital Securities of any notice of default
received with respect to the Debentures. In addition to obtaining the foregoing approvals of the Holders of the Capital Securities, prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the Property Trustee shall, at the expense of the Depositor, receive an
Opinion of Counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that such action shall not cause the Issuer Trust to be taxable as a corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes. 
  
 (c) If any proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement provides for, or the
Issuer Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely affect in any material respect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Capital Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Trust Agreement or otherwise, or
(ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Issuer Trust, other than pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement, then the Holders of Outstanding Capital Securities as a class will be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal and
such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, no amendment to this Trust
Agreement may be made if, as a result of such amendment, it would cause the Issuer Trust to be taxable as a corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes. 
  
 Section 6.2 Notice of Meetings. 
  
 Notice of all meetings of the Holders of the Capital Securities, stating the
time, place and purpose of the meeting, shall be given by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 10.8 to each Holder of Capital Securities, at such Holder’s registered address, at least 15 days and not more than 90 days before the meeting. At
any such meeting, any business properly before the meeting may be so considered whether or not stated in the notice of the meeting. Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice. 
  
 Section 6.3 Meetings of Holders of the Capital Securities. 

 
 No annual meeting of Holders is required to be held. The Property Trustee,
however, shall call a meeting of the Holders of the Capital Securities to vote on any matter upon the written request of the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding Capital Securities, and the Administrative
Trustees or the Property Trustee may, 

  

 -36- 

 
at any time, call a meeting of the Holders of the Capital Securities to vote on any matters as to which such Holders are entitled to vote. 
  
 The Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital
Securities, present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of the Holders of the Capital Securities. 
  
 If a quorum is present at a meeting, an affirmative vote by the Holders present, in person or by proxy, holding Capital Securities representing at least a
Majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities held by the Holders present, either in person or by proxy, at such meeting shall constitute the action of the Holders of the Capital Securities, unless this Trust Agreement requires
a greater number of affirmative votes. 
  
 Section 6.4 Voting
Rights. 
  
 Holders shall be entitled to one vote for each
$1,000 of Liquidation Amount represented by their Outstanding Trust Securities in respect of any matter as to which such Holders are entitled to vote. 
  
 Section 6.5 Proxies, Etc. 
  
 At any meeting of Holders, any Holder entitled to vote thereat may vote by proxy, provided that no proxy shall be voted at any meeting unless it
shall have been placed on file with the Property Trustee, or with such other officer or agent of the Issuer Trust as the Property Trustee may direct, for verification prior to the time at which such vote shall be taken. Pursuant to a resolution of
the Property Trustee, proxies may be solicited in the name of the Property Trustee or one or more officers of the Property Trustee. Only Holders of record shall be entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by several Persons, any one
of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy in respect of such Trust Securities, but if more than one of them shall be present at such meeting in person or by proxy, and such joint owners or their proxies so present disagree as to any vote
to be cast, such vote shall not be received in respect of such Trust Securities. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a Holder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise, and the burden of proving invalidity
shall rest on the challenger. No proxy shall be valid more than three years after its date of execution. 
  
 Section 6.6 Holder Action by Written Consent. 
  
 Any action that may be taken by Holders at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if Holders holding at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of all
Capital Securities entitled to vote in respect of such action (or such larger proportion thereof as shall be required by any other provision of this Trust Agreement) shall consent to the action in writing. 
  

 -37- 

 Section 6.7 Record Date for Voting and Other Purposes. 
  
 For the purposes of determining the Holders who are entitled to notice of and
to vote at any meeting or by written consent, or to participate in any distribution on the Trust Securities in respect of which a record date is not otherwise provided for in this Trust Agreement, or for the purpose of any other action, the
Administrative Trustees or Property Trustee may from time to time fix a date, not more than 90 days prior to the date of any meeting of Holders or the payment of a distribution or other action, as the case may be, as a record date for the
determination of the identity of the Holders of record for such purposes. 
  
 Section 6.8 Acts of Holders. 
  
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Trust Agreement to be given, made or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of
substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the
Property Trustee. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any
such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Trust Agreement and (subject to Section 8.1) conclusive in favor of the Issuer Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this Section.

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

  
 Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice,
consent, waiver or other Act of the Holder of any Trust Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Trust Security and the Holder of every Trust Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Issuer Trustees or the Issuer Trust in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Trust Security. 
  
 Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any
action hereunder with regard to any particular Trust Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Security or by one or more duly appointed 

  

 -38- 

 
agents each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such Liquidation Amount. 
  
 If any dispute shall arise among the Holders or the Issuer Trustees with
respect to the authenticity, validity or binding nature of any request, demand, authorization, direction, consent, waiver or other Act of such Holder or Issuer Trustee under this Article VI, then the determination of such matter by the Property
Trustee shall be conclusive with respect to such matter. 
  
 A
Holder may institute a legal proceeding directly against the Depositor under the Guarantee Agreement to enforce its rights under the Guarantee Agreement without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Guarantee Trustee (as defined in the
Guarantee Agreement), the Issuer Trust, any Issuer Trustee or any person or entity. 
  
 Section 6.9 Inspection of Records. 
  
 Upon reasonable notice to the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee, the records of the Issuer Trust shall be open to inspection by Holders during normal business hours for any purpose reasonably related to
such Holder’s interest as a Holder.

 THE ISSUER TRUSTEES 
  

Section 8.1 Certain Duties and Responsibilities. 
  
 (a) The duties and responsibilities of the Issuer Trustees shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement subject to Section 10.10 hereof. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, but subject to Section 8.1(c), no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require any of the Issuer Trustees to expend or risk its or their own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its or their
duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its or their rights or powers, if it or they shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to
it. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Issuer Trustees shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.1.
Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be construed to release an Administrative Trustee from liability for his or her own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or his or her own willful misconduct. To the extent that, at law or in
equity, an Issuer Trustee has duties and liabilities relating to the Issuer Trust or to the Holders, such Issuer Trustee shall not be liable to the Issuer Trust or to any Holder for such Issuer Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of
this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Issuer Trustees otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Holders to replace such
other duties and liabilities of the Issuer Trustees. 
  
 (b) All
payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in respect of the Trust Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be sufficient revenue or proceeds from the
Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Holder, by its acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that it will look solely to the revenue and proceeds from the Trust
Property to the extent legally available for distribution to it as herein provided and that the Issuer Trustees are not personally liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of any Trust Security or for any other liability in respect of
any Trust Security. This Section 8.1(b) does not limit the liability of the Issuer Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in this Trust Agreement or, in the case of the Property Trustee, in the Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 (c) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property
Trustee shall enforce this Trust Agreement for the benefit of the Holders. 
  
 (d) The Property Trustee, before the occurrence of any Event of Default and after the curing of all Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth
in this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.10), and no implied covenants shall be read into this Trust Agreement against the Property Trustee. If an Event of Default has occurred (that has not been cured or waived pursuant to Section
5.13), the Property Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers 

  

 -41- 

 
vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs. 
  
 (e) No
provision of this Trust Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that: 
  
 (i) prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default and
after the curing or waiving of all such Events of Default that may have occurred: 
  
 (A) the duties and obligations of the Property Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Trust Agreement
(including pursuant to Section 10.10), and the Property Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Trust Agreement (including pursuant to Section 10.10); and

  
 (B) in the absence of bad faith on the part
of the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Property Trustee and conforming to the
requirements of this Trust Agreement; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof or of the Trust Indenture Act are specifically required to be furnished to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall be
under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Trust Agreement. 
  
 (ii) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an authorized officer of the Property
Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Property Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
  
 (iii) the Property Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance
with the direction of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee, or exercising any trust or
power conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement; 
  
 (iv) the Property Trustee’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Debentures and the Payment Account shall be to deal with such Property in a similar manner as the
Property Trustee deals with similar property for its own account, subject to the protections and limitations on liability afforded to the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement and the Trust Indenture Act; 
  

 -42- 

 (v) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by it
except as it may otherwise agree with the Depositor; and money held by the Property Trustee need not be segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the Payment Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 3.1 and
except to the extent otherwise required by law; 
  
 (vi) the Property Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring the compliance by the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor with their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall the Property Trustee be liable for the
default or misconduct of any other Issuer Trustee or the Depositor; and 
  
 (vii) Subject to Section 8.1(c), no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Property Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its
duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Property Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability is not reasonably assured to it under the terms of this Trust Agreement or
adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 
  
 (f) The Administrative Trustees shall not be responsible for monitoring the compliance by the Issuer Trustees or the Depositor with their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall either Administrative
Trustee be liable for the default or misconduct of any other Administrative Trustee, the Issuer Trustees or the Depositor. 
  
 Section 8.2 Notices. 
  
 Within five Business Days after the occurrence of any Event of Default actually known to the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in the
manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.8, notice of such Event of Default to the Holders and the Administrative Trustees, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived. 
  
 Within five Business Days after the receipt of notice of the Depositor’s
exercise of its right to defer the payment of interest on the Debentures pursuant to the Indenture, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.8, notice of such exercise to the Holders and the
Administrative Trustees, unless such exercise shall have been revoked. 
  
 Section 8.3 Rights of Property Trustee. 
  
 Subject to the provisions of Section 8.1: 
  
 (a) the
Property Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith upon any resolution, Opinion of Counsel, certificate, written representation of a Holder or transferee, certificate of auditors or any
other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented
by the proper party or parties; 
  

 -43- 

 (b) if (i) in performing its duties under this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee is required to decide
between alternative courses of action, (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee finds the same ambiguous or inconsistent with any other provisions contained herein, or (iii) the Property Trustee is unsure
of the application of any provision of this Trust Agreement, then, except as to any matter as to which the Holders of the Capital Securities are entitled to vote under the terms of this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deliver a notice to
the Depositor requesting the Depositor’s opinion as to the course of action to be taken and the Property Trustee shall take action in accordance with such opinion; 
  
 (c) any direction or act of the Depositor contemplated by this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by an
Officers’ Certificate; 
  
 (d) any direction or act of an
Administrative Trustee contemplated by this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by a certificate executed by such Administrative Trustee and setting forth such direction or act; 
  
 (e) the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording, filing
or registration of any instrument (including any financing or continuation statement or any filing under tax or securities laws) or any rerecording, refiling or re-registration thereof; 
  
 (f) the Property Trustee may consult with counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Depositor or any of its Affiliates,
and may include any of its employees) and the advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon and in accordance
with such advice; the Property Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Trust Agreement from any court of competent jurisdiction; 
  
 (g) the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the
rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this Trust Agreement, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Property Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the
costs, expenses and liabilities that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; provided that, nothing contained in this Section 8.3(g) shall be taken to relieve the Property Trustee, upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default, of its obligation to exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement; 
  
 (h) the Property 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, note or other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by one or more Holders; 
  
 (i) the Property Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or
perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys; 
  

 -44- 

 (j) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable
to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder, the Property Trustee (i) may request instructions from the Holders (which instructions may only be given by the Holders of the same
proportion in Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities as would be entitled to direct the Property Trustee under the terms of the Trust Securities in respect of such remedy, right or action), (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or
taking such other action until such instructions are received, and (iii) shall be protected in acting in accordance with such instructions; 
  
 (k) the Property Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action that is discretionary under the provisions of this Trust Agreement;

  
 (l) The Property Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge
of any Event of Default unless the Property Trustee shall have received written notice or a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee charged with the administration of this Trust Agreement shall have obtained actual knowledge of such Event of
Default; and 
  
 (m) whenever in the administration of this Trust
Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established before taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Property Trustee (unless other evidence is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the
absence of bad faith on its part, request and conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly delivered by the Depositor or the Administrative Trustees. 
  
 No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to impose any duty or
obligation on any Issuer Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it, in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which such Person shall be unqualified or incompetent in
accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts, or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation. No permissive power or authority available to any Issuer Trustee shall be construed to be a duty. 
  
 Section 8.4 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

  
 The recitals contained herein and in the Trust Securities
Certificates shall be taken as the statements of the Issuer Trust and the Depositor, and the Issuer Trustees do not assume any responsibility for their correctness. The Issuer Trustees shall not be accountable for the use or application by the
Depositor of the proceeds of the Debentures. 
  
 Section 8.5
Hold Securities. 
  
 Any Issuer Trustee or any other agent
of any Issuer Trustee or the Issuer Trust, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Trust Securities and, subject to Sections 8.8 and 8.13, and except as provided in the definition of the term
“Outstanding” in Article I, may otherwise deal with the Issuer Trust with the same rights it would have if it were not an Issuer Trustee or such other agent. 
  

 -45- 

 Section 8.6 Compensation and Reimbursement. 
  
 The Depositor agrees: 
  
 (a) to pay to the Issuer Trustees from time to time such compensation for all
services rendered by them hereunder as may be agreed in writing by the Depositor and the Issuer Trustees from time to time (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express
trust); 
  
 (b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to
reimburse the Issuer Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Issuer Trustees in accordance with any provision of this Trust Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the
expenses and disbursements of their agents and counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to their negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; and 
  
 (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to indemnify and hold harmless (i) each Issuer Trustee, (ii) any
Affiliate of any Issuer Trustee, (iii) any officer, director, shareholder, employee, representative or agent of any Issuer Trustee, and (iv) any employee or agent of the Issuer Trust (referred to herein as an “Indemnified Person”)
from and against any loss, damage, liability, tax, penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of the creation, operation or termination of the Issuer Trust or any act or omission
performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Issuer Trust and in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Trust Agreement,
except that no Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by such Indemnified Person by reason of negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

  
 The provisions of this Section 8.6 shall survive the
termination of this Trust Agreement and the removal or resignation of any Issuer Trustee. 
  
 No Issuer Trustee may claim any Lien on any Trust Property as a result of any amount due pursuant to this Section 8.6. 
  
 The Depositor and any Issuer Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with
others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Issuer Trust, and the Issuer Trust and the Holders of Trust Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Trust Agreement in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived
therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Issuer Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. Neither the Depositor nor any Issuer Trustee shall be obligated to present any particular investment
or other opportunity to the Issuer Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Issuer Trust, could be taken by the Issuer Trust, and the Depositor or any Issuer Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account
(individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or 

  

 -46- 

 
other opportunity. Any Issuer Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor,
or may act as depository for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of the Depositor or its Affiliates.

 (a) There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder with respect to
the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a Person that is a national or state chartered bank and eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If any such
Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section and to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, the combined
capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Property Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article. At the time of appointment, the Property Trustee must have securities rated in one of
the three highest rating categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization. 
  
 (b) There shall at all times be one or more Administrative Trustees hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. Each Administrative Trustee shall

(c) There shall at all times be a Delaware Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities. The Delaware Trustee shall either be (i) a natural person who
is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the State of Delaware, or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the State of Delaware and that otherwise meets the requirements of applicable Delaware law and that shall act through
one or more persons authorized to bind such entity. 
  
 Section
8.8 Disqualification; Conflicting Interests. 
  
 (a) If the
Property Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of the Trust Indenture Act, the Property Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the
provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Trust Agreement. 
  
 (b) The Guarantee Agreement and the Indenture shall be deemed to be specifically described in this Trust Agreement for the purposes of clause (i) of the first proviso contained in Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act. 
  
 Section 8.9 Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee. 
  
 Unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time
or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of the Trust Indenture Act or of any 

  

 -47- 

 
jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property may at the time be located, the Property Trustee shall have power to appoint, and upon the written
request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor and the Administrative Trustees shall for such purpose join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery, and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or
more Persons approved by the Property Trustee either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Property Trustee, of all or any part of such Trust Property, or to the extent required by law to act as separate trustee of any such property, in either case
with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment, and to vest in such Person or Persons in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or desirable, subject to the other provisions of this
Section. Any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the United States, or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in
the United States that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such entity. 
  
 Should any written instrument from the Depositor be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so appointed for more fully confirming to such co-trustee or separate trustee such property, title, right, or power,
any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Depositor. 
  
 Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely:

  
 (a) The Trust Securities shall be executed by one or more
Administrative Trustees, and the Trust Securities shall be authenticated and delivered by the Property Trustee, and all rights, powers, duties, and obligations hereunder in respect of the custody of securities, cash and other personal property held
by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Property Trustee specified hereunder shall be exercised solely by the Property Trustee and not by such co-trustee or separate trustee. 
  
 (b) The rights, powers, duties, and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Property Trustee in respect of any
property covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Property Trustee or by the Property Trustee and such co-trustee or separate trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing
such co-trustee or separate trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Property Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such
rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee. 
  
 (c) The Property Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the written concurrence of the Depositor, may accept the
resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section, and, in case a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall have power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any
such co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence of the Depositor. Upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor shall join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and
agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any 

  

 -48- 

 
co-trustee or separate trustee so resigning or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section. 
  
 (d) No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by
reason of any act or omission of the Property Trustee or any other trustee hereunder. 
  
 (e) The Property Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act of a co-trustee or separate trustee. 
  
 (f) Any Act of Holders delivered to the Property Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate trustee. 

 
 Section 8.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

  
 No resignation or removal of any Issuer Trustee (the
“Relevant Trustee”) and no appointment of a successor Issuer Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Issuer Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements
of Section 8.11. 
  
 Subject to the immediately preceding
paragraph, the Relevant Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Holders. If the instrument of acceptance by the successor Issuer Trustee required by Section 8.11 shall not have been delivered to the Relevant Trustee
within 60 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the Relevant Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Trust, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Relevant Trustee. 
  
 Unless a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
any Issuer Trustee may be removed at any time by the Depositor. If a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, or both of them, may be removed at such time by Act of the Holders
of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities, delivered to the Relevant Trustee (in its individual capacity and on behalf of the Issuer Trust). An Administrative Trustee may be removed by the Depositor at any time. 
  
 If any Issuer Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting
as an Issuer Trustee, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of any Issuer Trustee for any cause, at a time when no Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Issuer Trustee
or Issuer Trustees, and the retiring Issuer Trustee shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11. If the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of continuing to act as the Property
Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, at a time when a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Holders of the Capital Securities, by Act of the Holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital
Securities then Outstanding delivered to the retiring Relevant Trustee, shall promptly appoint a successor Relevant Trustee or Trustees, and such successor Trustee shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11. If an Administrative
Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting as Administrative Trustee, the Depositor shall 

  

 -49- 

 
promptly appoint a successor Administrative Trustee or Administrative Trustees and such successor Administrative Trustee or Trustees shall comply with the
applicable requirements of Section 8.11. If no successor Relevant Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Depositor or the Holders of the Capital Securities and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 8.11 within 60 days after
such resignation, removal or incapacity, the Relevant Trustee and any Holder of Capital Securities who has been a Holder of Capital Securities for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of
competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Relevant Trustee. 
  
 The Property Trustee shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of an Issuer Trustee and each appointment of a successor Issuer Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in Section 10.8 and shall give
notice to the Depositor and the Administrative Trustees. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Relevant Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office if it is the Property Trustee. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Trust Agreement,
in the event any Administrative Trustee or a Delaware Trustee who is a natural person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Holder of the Common Securities, incompetent or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity
may be filled by (a) the unanimous act of the remaining Administrative Trustees if there are at least two of them or (b) otherwise by the Depositor (with the successor in each case being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for
Administrative Trustees or Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, set forth in Section 8.7). 
  
 Section 8.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. 
  
 In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Relevant Trustee, the retiring Relevant Trustee and each successor Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall execute and deliver an amendment
hereto wherein each successor Relevant Trustee shall accept such appointment and which (a) shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Relevant Trustee all the rights,
powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and the Issuer Trust and (b) shall add to or change any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement as shall be necessary to provide for or facilitate the
administration of the Issuer Trust by more than one Relevant Trustee, it being understood that nothing herein or in such amendment shall constitute such Relevant Trustees co-trustees and upon the execution and delivery of such amendment the
resignation or removal of the retiring Relevant Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Relevant Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
trusts and duties of the retiring Relevant Trustee; but, on request of the Issuer Trust or any successor Relevant Trustee such retiring Relevant Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Relevant Trustee all Trust Property,
all proceeds thereof and money held by such retiring Relevant Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities and the Issuer Trust. 
  

 -50- 

 Upon request of any such successor Relevant Trustee, the Issuer Trust shall execute any and all
instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Relevant Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the first or second preceding paragraph, as the case may be. 
  
 No successor Relevant Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time
of such acceptance such successor Relevant Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article. 
  
 Section 8.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business. 
  
 Any Person into which the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Relevant Trustee shall be a party, or any Person, succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of such Relevant Trustee, shall be
the successor of such Relevant Trustee hereunder, provided that such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties
hereto. 
  
 Section 8.13 Preferential Collection of Claims
Against Depositor or Issuer Trust. 
  
 If and when the
Property Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Depositor or the Issuer Trust (or any other obligor upon the Capital Securities), the Property Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of
claims against the Depositor or the Issuer Trust (or any such other obligor). 
  
 Section 8.14 May File Proofs of Claim. 
  
 In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other similar judicial proceeding relative to the Issuer Trust or any other obligor upon the
Trust Securities or the property of the Issuer Trust or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Property Trustee (irrespective of whether any Distributions on the Trust Securities shall then be due and payable and irrespective of whether the
Property Trustee shall have made any demand on the Issuer Trust for the payment of any past due Distributions) shall be entitled and empowered, to the fullest extent permitted by law, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: 
  
 (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of any Distributions owing
and unpaid in respect of the Trust Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Property Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and 
  
 (b) to collect and receive any moneys or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 
  

 -51- 

 and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial
proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make such payments to the Property Trustee and, in the event the Property Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to pay to the Property Trustee any amount due
it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Property Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Property Trustee. 
  
 Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Property Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on
behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement adjustment or compensation affecting the Trust Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Property Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such
proceeding. 
  
 Section 8.15 Reports by Property Trustee.

  
 (a) Within 60 days after December 31 of each year commencing
with December 31, 2004, the Property Trustee shall transmit to all Holders in accordance with Section 10.8, and to the Depositor, a brief report dated as of the immediately preceding December 31 with respect to: 
  
 (i) its eligibility under Section 8.7 or, in lieu thereof,
if to the best of its knowledge it has continued to be eligible under said Section, a written statement to such effect; 
  
 (ii) a statement that the Property Trustee has complied with all of its obligations under this Trust Agreement during the twelve-month
period (or, in the case of the initial report, the period since the Closing Date) ending with such December 31 or, if the Property Trustee has not complied in any material respect with such obligations, a description of such noncompliance; and

  
 (iii) any change in the property and funds in
its possession as Property Trustee since the date of its last report and any action taken by the Property Trustee in the performance of its duties hereunder which it has not previously reported and which in its opinion materially affects the Trust
Securities. 
  
 (b) In addition the Property Trustee shall
transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Property Trustee and its actions under this Trust Agreement as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act at the times and in the manner provided pursuant thereto. 
  
 (c) A copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to
Holders, be filed by the Property Trustee with the Depositor.

 ARTICLE IX 
  
 TERMINATION, LIQUIDATION AND MERGER 
  
 Section 9.1 Termination Upon Expiration Date. 
  
 Unless earlier terminated, the Issuer Trust shall automatically terminate on
March 1, 2035 (the “Expiration Date”), following the distribution of the Trust Property in accordance with Section 9.4. 
  
 Section 9.2 Early Termination. 
  
 The first to occur of any of the following events is an “Early Termination Event”: 
  
 (a) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event in respect of, or the dissolution or
liquidation of, the Depositor; 
  
 (b) the written direction to
the Property Trustee from all of the Holders of the Common Securities at any time to terminate the Issuer Trust and to distribute the Debentures to Holders in exchange for the Capital Securities (which direction is optional and wholly within the
discretion of the Holders of the Common Securities); 
  
 (c) the
redemption of all of the Capital Securities in connection with the redemption of all the Debentures; and 
  
 (d) the entry of an order for dissolution of the Issuer Trust by a court of competent jurisdiction. 
  
 Section 9.3 Termination. 
  
 The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Issuer Trustees and
the Issuer Trust created and continued hereby shall terminate upon the latest to occur of the following: (a) the distribution by the Property Trustee to Holders of all amounts required to be distributed hereunder upon the liquidation of the Issuer
Trust pursuant to Section 9.4, or upon the redemption of all of the Trust Securities pursuant to Section 4.2; (b) the payment of any expenses owed by the Issuer Trust; and (c) the discharge of all administrative duties of the Administrative
Trustees, including the performance of any tax reporting obligations with respect to the Issuer Trust or the Holders. Upon the termination of the Issuer Trust in accordance with this Section, the Delaware Trustee shall file a Certificate of
Cancellation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. 
  
 Section 9.4 Liquidation. 
  
 (a) If an Early
Termination Event specified in clause (a), (b) or (d) of Section 9.2 occurs or upon the Expiration Date, the Issuer Trust shall be liquidated by the Property Trustee by distributing, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Issuer Trust
as provided by applicable law, to each Holder a Like Amount of Debentures, subject to 

  

 -54- 

 
Section 9.4(d). Notice of liquidation shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60
days prior to the Liquidation Date to each Holder of Trust Securities at such Holder’s address appearing in the Securities Register. All such notices of liquidation shall: 
  
 (i) state the Liquidation Date; 
  
 (ii) state that from and after the Liquidation Date, the Trust Securities will no longer be deemed to be
Outstanding and any Trust Securities Certificates not surrendered for exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debentures; and 
  
 (iii) provide such information with respect to the mechanics by which Holders may exchange Trust Securities Certificates for Debentures,
or if Section 9.4(d) applies receive a Liquidation Distribution, as the Property Trustee (after consultation with the Administrative Trustees) shall deem appropriate. 
  
 (b) Except where Section 9.2(c) or 9.4(d) applies, in order to effect the liquidation of the Issuer Trust and distribution
of the Debentures to Holders, the Property Trustee, either itself acting as exchange agent or through the appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish a record date for such distribution (which shall be not more than 30 days prior to
the Liquidation Date) and, establish such procedures as it shall deem appropriate to effect the distribution of Debentures in exchange for the Outstanding Trust Securities Certificates. 
  
 (c) Except where Section 9.2(c) or 9.4(d) applies, after the Liquidation Date, (i) the Trust Securities will no longer be
deemed to be Outstanding, (ii) certificates representing a Like Amount of Debentures will be issued to Holders of Trust Securities Certificates, upon surrender of such Certificates to the exchange agent for exchange, (iii) any Trust Securities
Certificates not so surrendered for exchange will be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debentures bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on such Trust Securities Certificates until such
certificates are so surrendered (and until such certificates are so surrendered, no payments of interest or principal will be made to Holders of Trust Securities Certificates with respect to such Debentures) and (iv) all rights of Holders holding
Trust Securities will cease, except the right of such Holders to receive Debentures upon surrender of Trust Securities Certificates. 
  
 (d) If, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.4, whether because of an order for dissolution entered by a court of competent jurisdiction
or otherwise, distribution of the Debentures in the manner provided herein is deemed not to be practical, or if an Early Termination Event specified in clause (c) of Section 9.2 occurs, the Trust Property shall be liquidated, and the Issuer Trust
shall be dissolved, wound-up or terminated, by the Property Trustee in such manner as the Property Trustee determines. In such event, on the date of the dissolution, winding-up or other termination of the Issuer Trust, Holders will be entitled to
receive out of the assets of the Issuer Trust available for distribution to Holders, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Issuer Trust as provided by applicable law, an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security plus
accumulated and unpaid 

  

 -55- 

 
Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the “Liquidation Distribution”). If, upon any such dissolution, winding up
or termination, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Issuer Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then, subject to the next succeeding sentence, the amounts
payable by the Issuer Trust on the Trust Securities shall be paid on a pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation Amounts). The Holders of the Common Securities will be entitled to receive Liquidation Distributions upon any such dissolution,
winding-up or termination pro rata (determined as aforesaid) with Holders of Capital Securities, except that, if a Debenture Event of Default specified in Section 5.1(1) or 5.1(2) of the Indenture has occurred and is continuing, the Capital
Securities shall have a priority over the Common Securities as provided in Section 4.3. 
  
 Section 9.5 Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of Issuer Trust. 
  
 The Issuer Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets
substantially as an entirety to any corporation or other entity, except pursuant to this Section 9.5. At the request of the Holders of the Common Securities, with the consent of the Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the
Outstanding Capital Securities, the Issuer Trust may merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such under the laws of
any State; provided, that (a) such successor entity either (i) expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Issuer Trust with respect to the Capital Securities, or (ii) substitutes for the Capital Securities other securities having
substantially the same terms as the Capital Securities (the “Successor Securities”) so long as the Successor Securities have the same priority as the Capital Securities with respect to distributions and payments upon liquidation,
redemption and otherwise, (b) a trustee of such successor entity possessing the same powers and duties as the Property Trustee is appointed to hold the Debentures, (c) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or
lease does not cause the Capital Securities (including any Successor Securities) to be downgraded by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization, (d) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease
does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the Capital Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect, (e) such successor entity has a purpose substantially identical to that of the
Issuer Trust, (f) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, each of the Issuer Trust and the Property Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (i) such merger, consolidation,
amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Capital Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect, and (ii) following such
merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, neither the Issuer Trust nor such successor entity will be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act, and (g) the
Depositor or its permitted transferee owns all of the Common Securities of such successor entity and guarantees the obligations of such successor entity under the Successor Securities at least to the extent provided by the Guarantee Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer Trust shall not, except with the consent of holders of all of the Capital 

  

 -56- 

 
Securities, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an
entirety to any other entity or permit any other entity to consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or replace it if such consolidation, amalgamation, merger, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease would cause the Issuer Trust or the
successor entity to be classified as an association taxable as a corporation or as other than a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes. 
  
 ARTICLE X 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
  
 Section 10.1 Costs and Expenses. 
  
 The Depositor, as obligor of the Debentures, shall pay all debts and obligations (other than with respect to the Trust Securities) and all costs and
expenses of the Issuer Trust (including, but not limited to, all costs and expenses relating to the organization of the Issuer Trust, the fees and expenses of the Issuer Trustees and all costs and expenses relating to the operation of the Issuer
Trust (other than with respect to the Trust Securities)), and any and all taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges of whatever nature imposed by the United States or any other taxing authority, so that the net amounts received and
retained by the Issuer Trust after paying such debts, obligations, costs, expenses, taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges will be equal to the amounts the Issuer Trust would have received had no such debts, obligations, costs,
expenses, taxes, duties, assessments or other governmental charges been incurred by or imposed on the Issuer Trust. The foregoing obligations of the Depositor are for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable by, any Creditor whether or not such
Creditor has received notice thereof. Any such Creditor may enforce such obligations of the Depositor directly against the Depositor, and the Depositor irrevocably waives any right or remedy to require that such Creditor take any action against the
Issuer Trust or any other person before proceeding against the Depositor. The Depositor shall execute such additional agreements as may be necessary or desirable to give full effect in the foregoing. 
  
 Section 10.2 Limitation of Rights of Holders. 
  
 Except as set forth in Section 9.2, the death or incapacity of any Person
having an interest, beneficial or otherwise, in Trust Securities shall not operate to terminate this Trust Agreement, nor entitle the legal representatives or heirs of such Person or any Holder for such person, to claim an accounting, take any
action or bring any proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the arrangements contemplated hereby, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

Trustee and the Holders of all of the Common Securities, without the consent of any Holder of the Capital Securities, (i) to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision herein that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein, or
to make any other 

  

 -57- 

 
provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Trust Agreement, which shall not be inconsistent with the other provisions of this Trust
Agreement; provided, however, that such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Holder, or (ii) to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of this Trust Agreement to such extent as shall be necessary
to ensure that the Issuer Trust will not be taxable as a corporation or classified as other than a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes at all times that any Trust Securities are outstanding or to ensure that the Issuer Trust
will not be required to register as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act. 
  
 (b) Except as provided in Section 10.2(c) hereof, any provision of this Trust Agreement may be amended by the Property Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and
the Holders of all of the Common Securities and with (i) the consent of Holders of at least a Majority in Liquidation Amount of the Capital Securities, and (ii) receipt by the Issuer Trustees of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Issuer Trustees in accordance with such amendment will not affect the Trust’s status as a grantor trust or cause the Issuer Trust to be taxable as a corporation for United States Federal
income tax purposes or affect the Issuer Trust’s exemption from status as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act. 
  
 (c) In addition to and notwithstanding any other provision in this Trust Agreement, without the consent of each affected Holder (such consent being
obtained in accordance with Section 6.3 or 6.6 hereof), this Trust Agreement may not be amended to (i) change the amount or timing of any Distribution on the Trust Securities or otherwise adversely affect the amount of any Distribution required to
be made in respect of the Trust Securities as of a specified date, or (ii) restrict the right of a Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such date; and notwithstanding any other provision herein, without the
unanimous consent of the Holders (such consent being obtained in accordance with Section 6.3 or 6.6 hereof), this paragraph (c) of this Section 10.2 may not be amended. 
  
 (d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Trust Agreement, no Issuer Trustee shall enter into or consent to any
amendment to this Trust Agreement that would cause the Issuer Trust to fail or cease to qualify for the exemption from status as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act or to be taxable as a corporation or to be classified
as other than a grantor trust for United States Federal income tax purposes. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, without the consent of the Depositor and the Administrative Trustees, this Trust Agreement may not be amended in a manner that imposes any
additional obligation on the Depositor or the Administrative Trustees. 
  
 (f) In the event that any amendment to this Trust Agreement is made, the Administrative Trustees or the Property Trustee shall promptly provide to the Depositor a copy of such amendment. 
  

 -58-

Agreement is in compliance with this Trust Agreement.

LAWS PROVISIONS.

Trust Security shall be a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (except as otherwise provided in Sections 4.1(a) and 4.2(d)), with the same

 Exhibit D 
  
 AGREEMENT AS TO EXPENSES AND LIABILITIES, dated as of February 13, 2004, between CULLEN/FROST BANKERS, INC., a Texas corporation (the
“Corporation”), in its capacity as Depositor (as defined in the Trust Agreement referred to below), and CULLEN/FROST CAPITAL TRUST II, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer Trust”). 
  
 WHEREAS, the Issuer Trust intends to issue its Common
Securities (the “Common Securities”) to and acquire Debentures from the Corporation, and to issue and sell Floating Rate Capital Securities (the “Capital Securities”) with such powers, preferences and special rights
and restrictions as are set forth in the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement of the Issuer Trust, dated as of February 13, 2004, among the Corporation, as Depositor, The Bank of New York, as Property Trustee, The Bank of New York (Delaware), as
Delaware Trustee, the Administrative Trustees named therein and the Holders of Trust Securities, as the same may be amended from time to time (the “Trust Agreement”); 
  
 WHEREAS, terms used but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Trust Agreement; 
  
 NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valid
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 
  
 ARTICLE I 
  
 Section 1.1. Guarantee by the Depositor. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Depositor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
guarantees to each person or entity to whom the Issuer Trust is now or hereafter becomes indebted or liable (the “Beneficiaries”) the full payment, when and as due, of any and all Obligations (as hereinafter defined) to such
Beneficiaries. As used herein, “Obligations” means any costs, expenses or liabilities of the Issuer Trust, other than obligations of the Issuer Trust to pay to holders of any Trust Securities the amounts due such holders pursuant to
the terms of the Trust Securities. This Agreement is intended to be for the benefit of, and to be enforceable by, all such Beneficiaries, whether or not such Beneficiaries have received notice hereof. 
  
 Section 1.2. Subordination of Guarantee. The guarantee and other

 Cullen/Frost Capital Trust II (the “Trust”) (the “Capital Securities”) 
  
 Reference is made to the Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of February 13, 2004 (the “Trust Agreement”), among Cullen/Frost
Bankers, Inc., as Depositor, The Bank of New York, as Property Trustee, The Bank of New York (Delaware), as Delaware Trustee, the Administrative Trustees named therein and the Holders (as defined therein) from time to time. Terms used herein and
defined in the Trust Agreement or in Rule 144A, Regulation D, Regulation S or Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) are used herein as so defined. 
  
 This certificate relates to
$             aggregate Liquidation Amount of Capital Securities, which are evidenced by the following certificate(s) (the “Specified Securities”): 
  
 CUSIP No(s).

FORM: Yes:             No:             (check one) 
  
 The person in whose name this certificate is executed below (the “Undersigned”) hereby certifies that
either (a) it is the sole beneficial owner of the Specified Securities or (b) it is acting on behalf of all the beneficial owners of the Specified Securities and is duly authorized by them to do so. Such beneficial owner or owners are referred to
herein collectively as the “Owner”. If the Specified Securities are represented by a Book-Entry Capital Securities Certificate, they are held through the Clearing Agency or a Clearing Agency Participant in the name of the
Undersigned, as or on behalf of the Owner. If the Specified Securities are not represented by a Book-Entry Capital Securities Certificate, they are registered in the name of the Undersigned, as or on behalf of the Owner. 
  
 The Owner has requested that the Specified Securities be transferred to a
person (the “Transferee”) who will take delivery in the form of a Restricted Capital Security. In connection with such transfer, the Owner hereby certifies that, unless such transfer is being effected pursuant to an effective
registration statement under the Securities Act, it is being effected as set forth below in accordance with all applicable securities laws of the United 

  

 F-1 

 
States, the states of the United States and other jurisdictions. Accordingly, the Owner hereby certifies: 
  
 (1) Rule 144A Transfers. If the transfer is being
effected in accordance with Rule 144A: 
  
 (A) the Specified Securities are being transferred to a person that the Owner and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believe is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, acquiring for its
own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer; and 
  
 (B) the Owner and any person acting on its behalf have taken reasonable steps to ensure that the Transferee is aware that the Owner may be relying on Rule 144A in connection with the transfer; and 

 
 (2) Institutional Accredited Investor Transfers.
If the transfer is being effected to a Transferee that is an “institutional accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act that is not a “qualified institutional
buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, the Transferee shall have furnished to the Depositor, the Issuer Trust and the Securities Registrar a duly executed Institutional Accredited Investor Letter and such other certifications, legal opinions
or other information as they or either of them may reasonably require to confirm that such transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. An
“institutional accredited investor’ may not hold the specified securities or an interest therein in book-entry form or in any other form intended to facilitate book-entry trading in beneficial interests in such securities. 
  
 (3) Rule 904 Transfers. If the transfer is being
effected in accordance with Rule 904: 
  
 (A) the Owner is not a distributor of the Securities, an affiliate of the Depositor or the Trust or any such distributor or a person acting on behalf of any of the foregoing; 
  
 (B) the offer of the Specified Securities was not made to a person in the United States; 
  
 (C) either; 
  
 (i) at the time the buy order was originated, the Transferee was outside
the United States or the Owner and any person acting on its behalf reasonably believed that the Transferee was outside the United States, or 
  
 (ii) the transaction is being executed in, on or through the facilities of the Eurobond market, as regulated by the Association of International Bond
Dealers, or another designated offshore securities 

  

 F-2 

 
market and neither the Owner nor any person acting on its behalf knows that the transaction has been prearranged with a buyer in the United States;

  
 (D) no directed selling efforts have been
made in the United States by or on behalf of the Owner or any affiliate thereof; and 
  
 (E) the transaction is not part of a plan or scheme to evade the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 
  
 (4) Rule 144 Transfers. If the transfer is being
effected pursuant to Rule 144: 
  
 (A) the
transfer is occurring after a holding period of at least one year (computed in accordance with paragraph (d) of Rule 144) has elapsed since the date the Specified Securities were acquired from the Depositor or the Trust or from an affiliate (as such
term is defined in Rule 144) of the Depositor or the Trust, whichever is later, and is being effected in accordance with the applicable amount, manner of sale and notice requirements of paragraphs (e), (f) and (h) of Rule 144; or 
  
 (B) the transfer is occurring after a holding period of at
least two years has elapsed since the date the Specified Securities were acquired from the Depositor or the Trust or from an affiliate (as such term is defined in Rule 144) of the Depositor or the Trust, whichever is later, and the Owner is not, and
during the preceding three months has not been, an affiliate of the Depositor or the Trust. 
  
 This certificate and the statements contained herein are made for your benefit and the benefit of the Depositor, the Trust and the Initial Purchaser.
