CALLABLE PRIME RATE

SENIOR NOTES, DUE SEPTEMBER 2009

BANK OF AMERICA
CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation (herein called the "Corporation," which term
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture referred to on the
reverse hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to CEDE & CO., or
registered assigns, the principal sum of ONE HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLARS ($100,000,000) on September 25, 2009 (except to the extent redeemed or
repaid prior to that date).  The Corporation will pay interest on such
principal amount for each quarterly interest period from the Original Issue
Date through March 27, 2008 at a floating rate equal to the Prime Rate (as
defined below) minus the Spread of 2.88%.  The Corporation will pay interest on
such principal amount for each quarterly interest period from March 28, 2008 to
the Maturity Date or earlier redemption date at a floating rate equal to the
Prime Rate minus the Spread of 2.77%.  Interest shall be payable commencing on
the first Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date and on each
Interest Payment Date thereafter and on the Maturity Date.  If the Corporation
shall default in the payment of interest due on an Interest Payment Date, then
this Note shall bear interest from the

 

 next preceding Interest Payment Date for
which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid on the Notes,
from the Original Issue Date.  

Interest on
this Note will accrue from the Original Issue Date until the principal amount
is paid or duly provided for and will be computed as described in this Note. 
Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment Date or on the Maturity
Date will include interest accrued from, and including, the preceding Interest
Payment Date for which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from,
and including, the Original Issue Date if no interest has been paid or duly
provided for, as the case may be) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date
or Maturity Date, as the case may be.  If any Interest Payment Date falls on a
day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), such Interest Payment Date
shall be the following day that is a Business Day (and no interest will accrue
as a result of that postponement), except if such next Business Day falls in
the next calendar month, such Interest Payment Date will be the preceding day
that is a Business Day; and if the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business
Day, principal or interest payable with respect to such Maturity Date will be
paid on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such
Maturity Date, and no additional interest shall accrue for the period from and
after such Maturity Date.  Interest will be calculated using the actual number
of days in an interest period and a 360-day year. 

An interest
period is the period beginning on the Original Issue Date or an Interest
Payment Date and ending on the date immediately preceding the next following
Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be.  The interest rate
on this Note in effect for each day during an interest period will be
determined by the Calculation Agent using the Prime Rate on each Interest
Determination Date during that interest period.  The Calculation Agent will add
the Prime Rate as determined on each Interest Determination Date to the
applicable Spread to calculate the interest rate in effect for each such day.  

"Prime Rate"
means the prime rate or base lending rate on that date, as published in
H.15(519) prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the applicable Interest
Determination date, under the heading "Bank Prime Loan."

If the rate is
not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the applicable
Interest Determination Date, then the prime rate will be the rate as published
in H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source used for the
purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption "Bank Prime Loan."
If the alternative rate described in the preceding sentence is not published in
H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New
York City time, on the related Interest Determination Date, then the
Calculation Agent will determine the Prime Rate to be the arithmetic mean of
the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the
Reuters screen US PRIME 1 (as defined below), as that bank's prime rate or
base lending rate as in effect as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time on that
Interest Determination Date.  If fewer than four rates appear on the Reuters
screen US PRIME 1 for that Interest Determination Date, by 3:00 P.M., New York
City time, then the Calculation Agent will determine the Prime Rate to be the average
of the prime rates or the base lending rates furnished in New York City by
three substitute banks or trust companies (all organized under the laws of the
United States or any of its states and having total equity capital of at least
$500,000,000) selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the
Corporation, on the Interest Determination Date.  If the banks selected by the
Calculation Agent

 are not quoting as described above, the Prime Rate will
remain the prime rate then in effect on the Interest Determination Date. 
"Reuters screen US PRIME 1" means the display designated as page "US PRIME 1"
on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace
the US PRIME 1 page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates
or base lending rates of major United States banks).

The interest
so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment
Date will be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more
predecessor Notes evidencing all or a portion of the same debt as this Note) is
registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Interest
Payment Date, whether or not a Business Day.  "Business Day" means any weekday
that is not a legal holiday in New York, New York or Charlotte, North Carolina
and is not a day on which banking institutions in those cities are authorized
or required by law or regulation to be closed.  

The principal
of and interest on this Note are payable in immediately available funds in such
coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender
for payment of public and private debts, at the office or agency of the
Corporation in New York or such other places that the Corporation shall
designate as provided in such Indenture; provided, however, that interest may
be paid, at the option of the Corporation, by check mailed to the person
entitled thereto at his address last appearing on the registry books of the
Corporation relating to the Notes.  Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,
payments of principal of and interest payable on the Maturity Date will be made
by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated account
maintained in the United States upon (i) receipt of written notice by the
Issuing and Paying Agent (as described on the reverse hereof) from the
registered holder hereof not less than one Business Day prior to the due date
of such principal and (ii) presentation of this Note to the Issuing and Paying
Agent, at The Bank of New York, 101 Barclay Street, New York, New York 10286. 
Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for shall be payable as
provided in such Indenture.   

Reference is
made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof,
which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

Unless the
certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee or by an
authenticating agent on behalf of the Trustee by manual signature, this Note
shall not be entitled to any benefit under such Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.

Notes of this series may be increased by the Corporation in the future.  The
Trustee initially shall act as Security Registrar and Authenticating and
Issuing and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes.  

The Notes are
not subject to any sinking fund.  

            The provisions of Section 14.02 and Section 14.03 of the
Indenture do not apply the Notes.

            Subject to the provisions of Article III of the
Indenture, all, but not less than all, of the Notes of this series may be

in respect of the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any
incorporator, stockholder, officer, or director, as such, past, present, or
future, of the Corporation or any predecessor or successor corporation, whether

herein, but are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to
them in the Indenture.

If the Notes
are to be issued and outstanding pursuant to a book-entry system, the following
paragraph is applicable: The Notes are being issued by means of a book-entry
system with no physical distribution of certificates to be made except as
provided in the Indenture.  The book-entry system maintained by DTC will
evidence ownership of the Notes, with transfers of ownership effected on the
records of DTC and its participants pursuant to rules and procedures
established by DTC and its participants.  The Corporation will recognize Cede
& Co., as nominee of DTC, while the registered holder of the Notes, as the
owner of the Notes for all purposes, including payment of principal, premium,
if any, and interest, notices, and voting.  Transfers of the principal,
premium, if any, and interest to beneficial owners of the Notes by participants
of DTC will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of
such beneficial owners.  So long as the book-entry system is in effect, the
selection of any Notes to be redeemed will be determined by DTC pursuant to
rules and procedures established by DTC and its participants.  The Corporation
will not be responsible or liable of such transfers or payments or for
maintaining, supervising, or reviewing the records maintained by DTC, its
participants, or persons acting through such participants.

Plan Administration

of the Compensation Committee. The Plan shall be administered and
          interpreted by the Compensation Committee, as appointed from time to time by
the           Board pursuant to Section 4.2. The Compensation Committee shall have
the           authority in its absolute discretion to adopt, amend and rescind such
rules,           regulations and procedures as, in its opinion, may be advisable in the
          administration of the Plan. The interpretation and construction by the
          Compensation Committee of any provisions of the Plan, any rule, regulation or
          procedure adopted by it pursuant thereto, or of any Option, shall be final and
          binding.  

        4.2.    Appointment
and Operation of the Compensation Committee. The members of           the Committee
shall be appointed by, and will serve at the pleasure of, the           Board. The Board
from time to time may remove members from, or add members to,           the Compensation
Committee, provided the Compensation Committee shall at all           times consist of
three or more members for the Board, none of whom shall be an           Officer or
Employee of the Company or a Subsidiary. The Compensation Committee           shall act

provisions and limitations of the Plan, the Compensation Committee           may adopt
such rules, regulations and procedures as it deems appropriate for the           conduct
of its affairs. It may appoint one of its members to be chairman and any
          person, whether or not a member, to be its secretary or agent. The Compensation
          Committee shall report its actions and decisions to the Board at appropriate
          times but in no event less than one time per calendar year.  

        4.3.    Revocation
for Misconduct. The Compensation Committee may by resolution           immediately
revoke, rescind and terminate any Option, or portion thereof, to the           extent not
yet vested, previously granted under this Plan to an Employee who is           discharged
from the employ of the Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be,           for cause,
which, for purposes hereof, shall mean termination for: (i)           conviction of
a felony involving the misappropriation of the Company’s or           any Subsidiary’s
assets or a conviction of a felony which results in a           substantial, demonstrable
threat to the Company’s or any Subsidiary’s           reputation, or (ii)  gross
and willful failure to perform a substantial           portion of the Employee’s
duties and responsibilities as an Employee, which           failure continues for more
than thirty (30) days after written notice given to           the Employee pursuant to a
two-thirds vote of all of the members of the Board of           the Company or any
Subsidiary, as the case may be, then in office, such vote to           set forth in
reasonable detail the nature of such failure.  

        4.4.    Limitation
on Liability. No member of the Compensation Committee shall be           liable for
any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the           Plan, any
rule, regulation or procedure adopted by it pursuant thereto or any           Options
granted under it. If a member of the Compensation Committee is a party           or is
threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed           action,
suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or           investigative,
by reason of anything done or not done by him or her in such           capacity under or
with respect to the Plan, the Company shall, subject to the           requirements of
applicable laws and regulations, indemnify such member against           all liabilities
and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines           and amounts
paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in           connection
with such action, suit or proceeding if he or she acted in good faith           and in a
manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the           Company
and its Subsidiaries and, with respect to any criminal action or           proceeding,
had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.  

3 

        4.5.    Compliance
with Law and Regulations. All Options granted hereunder shall           be subject to
all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations and           to such
approvals by any government or regulatory agency as may be required. The
          Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any certificates for shares
of           Common Stock prior to the completion of any registration or qualification of
or           obtaining of consents or approvals with respect to such shares under any
federal           or state law or any rule or regulation of any government body, which
the Company           shall, in its sole discretion, determine to be necessary or
advisable. Moreover,           no Option may be exercised if such exercise would be
contrary to applicable laws           or regulations.  

        4.6.    Restrictions
on Transfer. The Company may place a legend upon any           certificate
representing shares acquired pursuant to an Option granted hereunder           noting
that the transfer of such share may be restricted by applicable laws and
          regulations.  

ARTICLE 5  

Eligible Employees 

        Options
may be granted to such Employees of the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be designated

Shares. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock which may           be issued
pursuant to this Plan, subject to adjustment as provided in           Article 9,
shall be 61,725 shares. None of such shares shall be the subject           of more than
one Option at any time, but if an Option as to any shares is           surrendered before
exercise, or expires or terminates for any reason without           having been exercised
in full, or for any other reason ceases to be exercisable,           the number of shares
covered thereby shall again become available for grant           under the Plan as if no
Options had been previously granted with respect to such           shares.  

        6.2.    Source
of Shares. The shares of Common Stock issued under the Plan may be
          authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares or shares purchased by the
          Company on the open market or from private sources for use under the Plan.

ARTICLE 7  

Determination of
Grants of Options 

        The
Compensation Committee shall, in its discretion, determine from time to time which
Employees will be granted Options under the Plan, the number of shares of Common Stock
subject to each Option and the exercise price of an Option. In making such determinations,
there shall be taken into account the duties, responsibilities and performance of each
respective Employee, his or her present and potential contributions to the growth and
success of the Company, or Subsidiary, as the case may be, his or her salary and such
other factors as the Compensation Committee shall deem relevant to accomplishing the
purposes of the Plan. 

ARTICLE 8  

Option Terms 

        Each
Option granted hereunder shall be on the following terms and conditions: 

        8.1.    Stock
Option Agreement. The proper Officers of the Company and each           Optionee
shall execute a Stock Option Agreement which shall set forth the total           number
of shares of Common Stock to which it pertains, the exercise price, and           such
other terms, conditions, restrictions and privileges as the Compensation
          Committee in each instance shall deem appropriate, provided they are not
          inconsistent with the terms, conditions and provisions of this Plan. Each
          Optionee shall receive a copy of his or her executed Stock Option Agreement.  

        8.2.    Option
Exercise Price. The per share price at which the subject Common           Stock may
be purchased upon exercise of an Option shall be no less than one           hundred
percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock at           the time
such Option is granted, except as provided in Section 8.09(b).  

        8.3.    Vesting
and Exercise of Options 

        (a)    General
Rules. Options shall become vested and exercisable at the rate,           to the
extent and subject to such limitations as may be specified by the           Compensation
Committee, provided, however, that no Option may be exercisable for           the first
six months following the date the Option is granted. Notwithstanding           the
foregoing, no vesting shall occur on or after an Optionee’s employment
          with the Company and all Subsidiaries is terminated for any reason other than
          his or her death, Disability or Retirement. In determining the number of shares
          of Common Stock with respect to which Options are vested and/or exercisable,
          fractional shares will be rounded up to the nearest whole number if the
fraction           is 0.5 or higher, and down if it is less. Upon the execution of a
Stock Option           Agreement, all Options therein shall be granted regardless of
conditions           imposed, if any, on the exercise of such Options.  

        (b)    Accelerated
Vesting Upon Death, Disability or Retirement. Unless           the
Compensation Committee shall specifically state otherwise at the time an           Option
is granted, all Options granted under this Plan shall become 100% vested           and
exercisable in full on the date an Optionee terminates his or her employment
          with the Company or a Subsidiary because of his or her death, Disability or
          Retirement.  

5 

        (c)    Accelerated
Vesting for Changes in Control. Notwithstanding the general           rule described
in Section 8.3(a), all outstanding Options shall become 100%           vested and
exercisable in full in the event there is a Change in Control of the           Company.  

        8.4.    Duration
of Options. Except as otherwise provided herein, each Option, to           the extent
not previously exercised, shall terminate and become null and void           upon the
first to occur of the following dates:  

        (a)    General.
The expiration of three (3) months after the date on which an           Optionee’s
employment by the Company or a Subsidiary is terminated (except           as provided in
Sections 8.5[b] and 8.5[c] following);  

        (b)    Disability.
The expiration of one (1) year after the date on which an           Optionee’s
employment by the Company is terminated by reason of an           Optionee’s
Disability;  

        (c)    Death.
In the event of an Optionee’s death, the Optionee’s           estate (or the
person who acquires the right to exercise the Option by bequest           or inheritance)
may exercise, within one (1) year after the date of the           Optionee’s death,
the Option to the extent not exercised by the Optionee           during his or her
lifetime; or  

        (d)              Ten
(10) years after the grant of the option.  

        8.5.    Nonassignability.
Options shall not be transferable by an Optionee except           by will or the laws of
descent or distribution, and during an Optionee’s           lifetime shall be
exercisable only by such Optionee.  

        8.6.    Manner
of Exercise. Options may be exercised in part or in whole and at           one time
or from time to time. The procedures for exercise shall be set forth in           the
written Stock Option Agreement provided for in Section 8.1 above.  

        8.7.    Payment
for Shares. Payment in full of the purchase price for shares of           Common
Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of any Option shall be made to           the
Company upon exercise of the Option. All shares sold under the Plan shall be
          fully paid and nonassessable. Payment for shares may be made by the Optionee in
          cash or, at the discretion of the Compensation Committee, by delivering shares
          of Common Stock (including shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an
          Option) or other property equal in fair market value to the purchase price of
          the shares to be acquired pursuant to the Option, by withholding some of the
          shares of Common Stock which are being purchased upon exercise of an Option, or
          any combination of the foregoing.  

        8.8.    Voting,
and Dividend Rights. No Optionee shall have any voting or           dividend rights
or other rights of a stockholder in respect of any shares of           Common Stock
covered by an Option prior to the time that his or her name is           recorded on the
Company’s stockholder ledger as the holder of record of           such shares
acquired pursuant to an exercise of an Option.  

6 

        8.9.    Additional
Terms. All Options issued under the Plan will be subject, in           addition to
the terms set forth in Sections 8.1 to 8.8 above, to those           contained in
this Section 8.9.  

        (a)    General
Limitation. Notwithstanding any contrary provisions contained           elsewhere in
this Plan, the aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the           time an Option
is granted, of the Common Stock with respect to which Options are           exercisable
for the first time by the Optionee during any calendar year, under           this Plan
and stock options that satisfy the requirements of Section 422 of           the Code
under any other stock options plan or plans maintained by the Company           (or any
Subsidiary) shall not exceed $100,000.  

        (b)    Limitation
on Ten Percent Stockholders. The price at which shares of           Common Stock may
be purchased upon exercise of an Option granted to an           individual who, at the
time such Option is granted, owns, directly or           indirectly, more than ten
percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of           all classes of stock issued
to stockholders of the Company or any Subsidiary,           shall be no less than one
hundred and ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market           Value of a share of the
Common Stock of the Company at the time of grant, and           such Option shall by its
terms not be exercisable after the earlier of the date           determined under Section 8.3
or the expiration of five (5) years from the           date such Option is granted.  

        (c)    Notice
of Disposition: Withholding Escrow. An Optionee shall immediately           notify
the Company in writing of any sale, transfer, assignment or other           disposition
(or action constituting a disqualifying disposition within the           meaning of
Section 421 of the Code) (collectively and individually, a           “Disqualifying
Disposition”) of any shares of Common Stock acquired           through exercise of
an Option, which Disqualifying Disposition occurs within two           (2) years after
the grant of such Option or within one (1) year after the           acquisition of such
shares, setting forth the date and manner of disposition,           the number of shares
disposed of and the price at which such shares were           disposed of. The Company
shall be entitled to withhold from any compensation or           other payments, then or
thereafter due to the Optionee such amounts as may be           necessary to satisfy any
withholding requirements of federal or state law or           regulation and, further, to
collect from the Optionee any additional amounts           which may be required for such
purpose. The Compensation Committee may, in its           discretion, require shares of
Common Stock acquired by an Optionee upon exercise           of an Option to be held in
an escrow arrangement for the purpose of enabling           compliance with the
provisions of this Section 8.9(c).  

ARTICLE 9  

Adjustments for
Capital Changes 

        The
aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under this Plan, the
number of shares to which any Option relates and the exercise price per share of Common
Stock under any Option shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in
the total number of outstanding shares of Common Stock issued subsequent to the effective
date of this Plan resulting from a split, subdivision or consolidation of shares or any
other capital adjustment, the payment of a stock dividend, or other increase or decrease
in such shares effected without receipt or payment of consideration by the Company. If,
upon a merger, consolidation, reorganization, liquidation, recapitalization or the like of
the Company, the shares of the Company’s Common Stock shall be exchanged for other
securities of the Company or of another corporation, each recipient of an Option shall be
entitled, subject to the conditions herein stated, to purchase or acquire such number of
shares of Common Stock or amount of other securities of the Company or such other
corporation as were exchangeable for the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company
which such Optionees would have been entitled to purchase or acquire except for such
action, and appropriate adjustments shall be made to the per share exercise price of
outstanding Options. 

7 

ARTICLE 10  

Amendment and
Termination of the Plan 

        The
Board may, by resolution, at any time terminate, amend or revise the Plan with respect to

that no amendment which (i) changes the maximum number of shares that may be sold or
issued under the Plan (other than in accordance with the provisions of this
Article 10) or (ii) changes the class of Employees that may be granted Options,
shall become effective until it receives the approval of the stockholders of the Company;
and further provided that the Board may determine that stockholder approval for any other
amendment to this Plan may be advisable for any reason, such as for the purpose of
obtaining or retaining any statutory or regulatory benefits under tax, securities or other
laws. The Board may not, without the consent of the holder of an Option, alter or impair
any Option previously granted or awarded under this Plan as specifically authorized
herein. 

ARTICLE 11  

Employment Rights 

        Neither

Subsidiary.

        12.2.    Methods
of Tax Withholding. The Compensation Committee is authorized to           adopt
rules, regulations or procedures which provide for the satisfaction of an
          Employee’s tax withholding obligation by the retention of shares of Common
          Stock to which the Employee would otherwise be entitled pursuant to an Option
          and/or by the Employee’s delivery of previously-owned shares of Common
          Stock or other property.
