CUSIP NO. 758940 AG 5

         REGIONS FINANCIAL CORPORATION, a corporation duly organized and
existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein called the "Company",
which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture referred to on the
reverse hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
________________________, the principal sum of ________ United States Dollars
(U.S.$______ ) (which principal amount may from time to time be increased or
decreased to such other principal amounts (which, taken together with the
principal amounts of all other Outstanding Notes under this Series of Notes,
shall not exceed U.S.$600,000,000 in the aggregate at any time, all of which
shall be represented hereby) by adjustments made on the records of the Trustee
hereinafter referred to in accordance with the Indenture) on May 15, 2012 and to
pay interest thereon, from May 15, 2002, or from the most recent Interest
Payment Date (as defined below) to which interest has been paid or duly provided
for, semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 in each year (each an
"Interest Payment Date"), commencing November 15, 2002 at the rate of 6.375% per
annum, computed for any full semiannual period on the basis of a 360-day year of
twelve 30-day months and computed for any partial semiannual period on the
actual days elapsed during such period, until the principal hereof is due, and
at the rate of 6.375% per annum on any overdue principal and premium, if any,
and, to the extent permitted by law, on any overdue interest. The interest so
payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date
will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this
Note (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be May 1 or
November 1 (whether or not a Business Day), as the case may be, immediately
preceding such Interest Payment Date. Interest on the Outstanding Notes payable
at maturity will be payable to the persons to whom principal is payable. Except
as otherwise provided in the Indenture, any such interest not so punctually paid

(or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business
on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed
by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Notes not less than
10 days prior to the Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any automated quotation

upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided

behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the
subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for
any and all such purposes.

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Indenture and subject
to Section 5.2 of the Supplemental Indenture, this Note shall rank senior to (1)
any series of Securities issued to a Regions Trust, including, without
limitation, the Company's 8.00% Junior Subordinated Deferrable Interest
Debentures due 2031 issued pursuant to that certain First Supplemental
Indenture, dated as of February 26, 2001, between the Company and Deutsche Bank

certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of Notes of any authorized denominations as requested

         In any case where the due date for the payment of the principal of,

the period after such date.

including an exchange or transfer of this Note in part only, the Trustee, as
custodian of the Depository, shall make an adjustment on its records to reflect
such deposit or withdrawal in accordance with the rules and procedures of The
Depository Trust Company applicable to, and as in effect at the time of, such
transaction.]

501(7) of the Indenture shall occur with respect to the Company only, and be
continuing, the principal of all the Notes, together with accrued interest
(including any Additional Interest) to the date of declaration, may be declared
due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
Upon payment (i) of the amount of principal so declared due and payable,
together with accrued interest to the date of declaration, and (ii) of interest
on any overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, overdue
interest, all of the Company's obligations in

Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of
specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes at the time Outstanding,
on behalf of the Holders of all the Notes, to waive compliance by the Company
with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the
Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of
this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future
Holders of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu
hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note
or such other Note.

Holder of this Note shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with
respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for
any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have previously given the
Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default, the Holders of not less
than 25% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes shall have made written
request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of
Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee reasonable indemnity and the Trustee
shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in principal amount of
the Outstanding Notes a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have
failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such
notice, request and offer of indemnity.

         No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or
of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is
absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of, premium, if any, and
