            BANKNORTH GROUP, INC., a corporation duly organized and existing
under the laws of the State of Maine (herein called the "Company", which term
includes any successor Person under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for
value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the
principal sum of ONE HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS ($150,000,000) on May 1,
2008, and to pay interest thereon from April 30, 2003, or from the most recent
Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
semi-annually on May 1 and November 1 of each year, commencing November 1, 2003,
at the rate of 3.75% per annum, until the principal hereof is paid or made
available for payment. Interest on this Security shall be calculated on the
basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. The interest so
payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment date
will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this
Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of
business on the Regular Record Date for such interest, which shall be the April

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 Company, notice
whereof shall be given to Holders of the Securities of this series, not less
than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any
other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such
notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said
Indenture.

            Payment of the principal of and interest on this Security will be
made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the
Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts; provided, however, that at the option of the
Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the
person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register or
by wire transfer to an account designated by such person pursuant to an
arrangement that is satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company; and provided,
further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as this Security is a
global Security registered in the name of a depositary or its nominee, payments
of the principal of and interest on this Security shall be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds.

            Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security
set forth on the reverse hereof; which further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

                               REVERSE OF SECURITY

            This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the
Company (herein called the "Securities") issued and to be issued in one or more
series under an Indenture, dated as of April 30, 2003 (herein called the
"Indenture", which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such
instrument), between the Company and The Bank of New York, a New York banking
corporation, as Trustee (herein called the "Trustee" which term includes any
successor trustee under the Indenture). Reference is hereby made to the
Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights,
duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holder of
the Securities and the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered. This Security is one of the series designated on
the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to
$150,000,000, but subject to the Company's right to "reopen" the series and
issue additional Securities of such series from time to time.

            The Securities of this series are not subject to redemption at the
option of the Company prior to the Stated Maturity of the principal thereof.

            If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series
shall occur and be continuing, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest
on the Securities of this series may be declared due and payable in the manner
and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

            The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the
amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the
Company and the rights of the Holders of Securities of each series issued under
the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the
Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Securities at the time Outstanding of each series affected thereby. The
Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified
percentages in principal amount of the securities of each series at the time
Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, 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 Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such
Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security issued
upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange or in lieu hereof,
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

            As provided in and subject to the provisions of the Indenture,
Holders of Securities of this series 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 Holders shall have
previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default
with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25%
in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding
shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in
respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity
reasonably

                                       4
<PAGE>

satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of
a majority in principal amount of Securities of this series at the time
Outstanding 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. The foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by
Holders of Securities of this series for the enforcement of any payment of
principal hereof or any interest hereon on or after the respective due dates
expressed herein.

            No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and
interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or
currency prescribed herein and in the Indenture.

            As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the Security
Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the
office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and any
interest on this Security are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a
written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the
Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly
authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this series
and of like terms and tenor, of authorized denominations and for the same
aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or
transferees.

            The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form
without coupons in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein and herein
set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Securities of this series and of like terms and tenor of a
different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the
same.

            The global Securities of this series will be exchangeable for
definitive certificated Securities of this series if (i) the depositary for such
global Securities notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to
continue as depositary for such global Securities or at any time such depositary
ceases to be a clearing agency registered as such under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended (or any successor thereto), if so required by applicable
law or regulation, and the Company shall not have appointed a successor
depositary for such global Securities within 90 days of such notification or of
the Company becoming aware of the depositary's ceasing to be so registered, as
the case may be, (ii) the Company, in its sole discretion determines that the
global Securities of this series shall be exchangeable for definitive
certificated Securities of this series and executes and delivers to the Trustee
a Company Order to the effect that such global Securities shall be so
exchangeable, or (iii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing with
respect to the Securities of this series. If any global Security of this series
is exchangeable pursuant to the preceding sentence, it shall be exchanged,
without charge, for definitive certificated Securities of this series issued in
authorized denominations and registered in such names as the depositary shall
direct, and the Company will deliver to the Trustee definitive certificated
Securities of this series,

                                       5
<PAGE>

executed by the Company, in order to effect such exchange. Subject to the
foregoing, a global Security of this series is not exchangeable, except for a
Security of this series to be registered in the name of such depositary or its
nominee or in the name of a successor to the depositary or a nominee of such
successor depositary.

            No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or
exchange of this Security, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection
therewith, other than in certain cases provided in the Indenture.

            Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of
transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee
may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither
the Company, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

            The Indenture and this Security shall be governed by and construed
in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

            All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture
shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Indenture.

qualified and is in good standing as a corporation authorized to do

and notices to, all governmental or regulatory authorities and all courts
and other tribunals, as are necessary to own, lease, license and operate
its respective properties and to conduct its businesses, except where the
failure to have any such Authorization or to make any such filing or
notice could, singly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected not to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Each such Authorization is valid and in
full force and effect and the Company is in compliance with all the terms
and conditions thereof and with the rules and regulations of the
authorities and governing bodies having jurisdiction with respect
thereto; and, except as set forth on Schedule 8(h), no event has occurred

the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “TIA”), and the rules
and regulations of the Commission applicable to an indenture that is
qualified thereunder. It is not necessary in connection with the offer,
sale and delivery of the Securities to the Purchasers in the manner
contemplated by this Agreement to qualify the Indenture under the TIA.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(m) No form of general solicitation or general advertising (as defined in

representatives (other than the Purchasers, as to whom the Company makes

Securities contemplated hereby, including, but not limited to, articles,
notices or other communications published in any newspaper, magazine, or

(o) No registration under the Act of the Securities is required for the

the accuracy of the Purchasers’ representations and warranties and
agreements set forth in Section 9 hereof.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(p) The Company owns or possesses adequate rights or licenses to use all
trademarks, trademark applications, trade names and service marks,
whether or not registered, and all patents, patent applications,
copyrights, inventions, licenses, approvals, governmental authorizations,
trade secrets and intellectual property rights (collectively,

with its business as now conducted. Except as set forth on Schedule
8(p), none of the Intellectual Property Rights of the Company has expired
or terminated, or is expected to expire or terminate within two (2) years
from the date of this Agreement. The Company has not infringed nor is
it infringing on any of the Intellectual Property Rights of any other
Person and, except as set forth on Schedule 8(p), there is no claim,
action or proceeding that has been made or brought or alleged against, or
to the knowledge of the Company, is being made, brought or threatened
against, the Company regarding the infringement of any of the
Intellectual Property Rights of the Company, and the Company is unaware
of any facts or circumstances that might give rise to any of the
foregoing, except where any of the foregoing would not have a Material
Adverse Effect. The Company has taken reasonable security measures to
protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of all of its Intellectual
Property Rights.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(q) Except as and to the extent set forth in this Agreement, the Company
makes no representations or warranties whatsoever to any Purchaser and
hereby disclaims all liability and responsibility for any representation,
warranty, statement, or information not in-

9

 

	 	 	 
	 	 	
cluded herein that was made, communicated, or furnished (orally or in
writing) to any Purchaser or its representatives (including any opinion,
information, projection, or advice that may have been or may be provided
to any Purchaser by any director, officer, employee, agent, consultant,
or representative of the Company).
	 	 	 
	9.	 	
Purchasers’ Representations and Warranties. Each of the Purchasers,
severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to the Company, and
agrees that:
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(a) Such Purchaser has full power, authority and capacity to enter into
this Purchase Agreement and this Purchase Agreement constitutes a valid
and legally binding obligation of such Purchaser. At the time such
Purchaser was offered the Securities, and at the Closing Date, (i) such
Purchaser was and will be a “qualified institutional buyer” as such term
is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, (ii) such Purchaser had
and will have such knowledge, sophistication and experience in business
and financial matters so as to be capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of the prospective investment contemplated by this Agreement, and
(iii) such Purchaser is able to bear the substantial economic risk of its
investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time, has
evaluated such risks, has no need for liquidity in such investment, and
is prepared to lose his entire investment in the Securities.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(b) Such Purchaser understands and acknowledges that (i) the Securities
are being offered and sold to such Purchaser without registration under
the Securities Act in a private placement that is exempt from the
registration provisions of the Securities Act under Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act or Regulation D promulgated thereunder and (ii) the
availability of such exemption depends in part on, and the Company will
rely upon the accuracy and truthfulness of, the representations set forth
in this Section 9 and such Purchaser hereby consents to such reliance.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(c) Such Purchaser and its advisors, if any:

	 	 	 
	 	 	
(i) have been furnished for a reasonable period of time with all
materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the
Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the
Securities that have been requested by such Purchaser or its
advisors (collectively with this Purchase Agreement, the
“Investment Materials”). Such Purchaser and its advisors, if any,
have carefully read the Investment Materials and understand and

in general, and in the Securities in particular, and have relied
solely, except as provided below in subsections (ii) and (iii) of
this Section 9(c), on the information contained in the Investment
Materials;
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(ii) have been provided an opportunity for a reasonable period of
time prior to the date hereof to obtain additional information
concerning the offering of the Securities, the Company and all
other information to the extent the Company possesses such
information or can acquire it without unreasonable effort or
expense;
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(iii) have been afforded the opportunity for a reasonable period of
time prior to the date hereof to ask questions of, and receive
answers from, the Company or its

10

 

	 	 	 
	 	 	
representatives concerning the terms and conditions of the offering
of the Securities and other matters pertaining to this investment,
and have been given the opportunity for a reasonable period of time
prior to the date hereof to obtain such additional information
necessary to verify the accuracy of the information contained in
the Investment Materials or that which was otherwise provided in
order to evaluate the merits and risks of a purchase of the
Securities to the extent the Company possesses such information or
can acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense;
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(iv) have not been furnished with any oral representation or oral
information in connection with the offering of the Securities that
is not contained in the Investment Materials; and
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(v) have determined that the Securities are a suitable investment
for such Purchaser and that at this time such Purchaser could bear
a complete loss of such investment.

	 	 	 
	 	 	        
Neither such inquiries nor any other due diligence investigation
conducted by such Purchaser or any of its advisors or representatives
shall modify, amend or affect Purchaser’s right to rely on the Company’s
representations and warranties contained in Section 8 above or
representations and warranties of the Company contained in any other
Operative Document. Such Purchaser understands that its investment in
the Securities involves a significant degree of risk.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(d) Each Purchaser is aware of, understands, and acknowledges the
following: (i) that due to the discovery of financial and accounting
reporting errors affecting its financial statements for the years ended
December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999 and the quarter ended March 31, 2002,
the Company was engaged in a restatement of such financial statements and
is currently engaged in a restatement of its financial statements for the
quarter ended March 31, 2002; (ii) that the Company currently has no
audited financial statements to provide to the Purchasers other than the
audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000
and 1999, and that each Purchaser has waived access to any other
statements as a component of its Investment Materials; (iii) that the
Company currently is not in compliance with the periodic reporting
requirements of Sections 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act; (iv) that the
most recent quarterly or annual reports filed by the Company on forms
10-Q or 10-K, respectively, were for the quarterly period ended March 31,
2002, and the annual period ended December 31, 2001; (v) that the Company
does not know when the remaining restatement and related auditing tasks
will be completed; (vi) that the Company’s Common Stock has been delisted
from the NASDAQ National Market, effective March 4, 2003 and is not
currently eligible to trade on the OTC Bulletin Board; and (vii) that the
Company is currently the subject of a formal non-public investigation by
the Securities and Exchange Commission.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(e) Such Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state
agency or any other government or governmental agency or authority has
passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the
Securities.

11

 

	 	 	 
	 	 	
(f) Such Purchaser is not acquiring the Securities with a view to any
distribution thereof or with any present intention of offering or selling
any of the Securities in a transaction that would violate the Act or the
securities laws of any state of the United States or any other applicable
jurisdiction.

          
        Each Purchaser acknowledges that the Company will rely upon the accuracy
and truth of the foregoing representations and the Purchasers hereby consent to
such reliance.

	 	 	 
	10.	 	
Indemnification.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Purchasers, and
their respective officers, employees, agents, directors, partners,
shareholders and each person, if any, who controls such Purchasers within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act
(collectively, “Indemnified Persons”) harmless from and against any and
all loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment, deficiency or reasonable
expense (including interest, penalties, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
amounts paid in settlement) incurred by or asserted against any
Indemnified Person arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a
result of any breach or alleged breach or other violation or alleged
violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking by the
Company contained in this Agreement, and the Company shall reimburse the
Purchaser for its reasonable legal and other expenses (including the cost
of any investigation and preparation, and including the reasonable fees
and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection therewith; provided that
such indemnity shall not apply to any such losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or related expenses that are determined by a court of
competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have
resulted from the negligence or misconduct of, or the willful violation
of this Agreement by, such Indemnified Person.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(b) The Purchasers agree to severally indemnify and hold harmless the
Company and each officer, director, employee, agent of the Company, and
each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, against any and
all loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment, deficiency or reasonable
expense (including interest, penalties, reasonable attorneys’ fees and
amounts paid in settlement) incurred, arising out of, in any way
connected with, or as a result of any breach or alleged breach or other
violation or alleged violation of any representation, warranty, covenant
or undertaking by the Purchasers contained in this Agreement, and the
Purchasers shall reimburse (severally, in proportion to their purchases
hereunder) the Company for its reasonable legal and other expenses
(including the cost of any investigation and preparation, and including
the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred in connection
therewith.
	 	 	 
	 	 	
(c) If any action or proceeding (including any governmental investigation
or inquiry) shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person in
respect of which indemnity may be sought from the Company, such
Indemnified Person shall promptly notify the Company in writing, and the
Company shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of
counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person and the
payment of all reasonable expenses. Such Indemnified Person shall have
the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to
participate in the defense thereof, but the fees

12

 

	 	 	 
	 	 	
and expenses of such counsel shall be the expense of such Indemnified
Person unless (a) the Company has agreed in writing to pay such fees and
expenses or (b) the Company shall have failed to assume the defense of
such action or proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory
to such Indemnified Person in any such action or proceeding within a
reasonable time after notice of commencement of such action or proceeding
or (c) the named parties to any such action or proceeding (including any
impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Person and the Company,
and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised in writing by counsel
that there may be one or more legal defenses available to such
Indemnified Person that are different from or additional to those
available to the Company (in which case, if such Indemnified Person
notifies the Company in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel
at the expense of the Company, the Company shall not have the right to
assume the defense of such action or proceeding on behalf of such
Indemnified Person; it being understood, however, that the Company shall
not, in substantially similar or related actions or proceedings in the
same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for such Indemnified
Person and any other Indemnified Persons, which firm shall be designated
in writing by such Indemnified Persons and that all such fees and
expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred). The Company shall not
be liable for any settlement of any such action or proceeding effected
without its written consent, but if settled with its written consent, or
if there be final, unappealable judgment for the plaintiff in any such
action or proceeding, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
such Indemnified Persons from and against any loss or liability by reason
of such settlement or judgment. The Company shall not, without the prior
written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any
pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified
Person is a party and indemnity being sought hereunder by such
Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional
release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are
the subject matter of such proceeding.
