interests in the assets of the Trust (the “Common Securities” and, collectively with the Preferred
Securities, the “Trust Securities”), and to provide the terms and conditions upon which the
Securities are to be authenticated, issued and delivered; and

     Whereas, all things necessary to make this Indenture a valid agreement of the
Company, in accordance with its terms, have been done.

     Now, therefore, this Indenture Witnesseth:

the Securities, the payment of which has not been made on the applicable Interest Payment Date and
which shall accrue at the rate per annum, compounded quarterly, specified or determined as
specified in such Security.

     “Additional Tax Sums” has the meaning specified in Section 10.5.

     “Additional Taxes” means taxes, duties or other governmental charges imposed on the Trust as a
result of a Tax Event (which, for the sake of clarity, does not include amounts required to be
deducted or withheld by the Trust from payments made by the Trust to or for the benefit of the
Holder of, or any Person that acquires a beneficial interest in, the Securities).

     “Administrative Trustee” means, with respect to the Trust, a Person identified as an
“Administrative Trustee” in the Trust Agreement, solely in its capacity as Administrative Trustee
of the Trust under the Trust Agreement and not in its individual capacity, or its successor in
interest in such capacity, or any successor Administrative Trustee appointed as therein provided.

     “Affiliate” of any specified Person means any other Person directly or indirectly controlling
or controlled by or under direct or indirect common control with such specified Person. For the
purposes of this definition, “control,” when used with respect to any specified Person, means the
power to direct the management and policies of such Person, directly or indirectly, whether through
the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise; and the terms “controlling” and
“controlled” have meanings correlative to the foregoing.

Depositary for such Security, in each case to the extent applicable to such transaction and as in
effect from time to time.

6.11 to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate the Securities.

regulation (including any announced prospective change) or a change in interpretation or
application of law, rule or regulation by any legislative body, court, governmental agency or
regulatory authority, there is more than an insubstantial risk that within ninety (90) days of the
date of such opinion, the aggregate liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities will not be
eligible to be treated by the Company as “Tier 1 Capital” (or the then equivalent) for purposes of
the capital adequacy guidelines of the Federal Reserve or other “appropriate Federal banking
agency” as such term is defined in 12 U.S.C. 1813(q), which amendment, change or prospective change
becomes effective or would become effective, as the case may be, on or after the date of issuance
of the Securities; provided, however, that the inability of the Company to treat all or any portion
of the liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities as Tier 1 Capital shall not constitute the
basis for a Capital Disqualification Event if such inability results from the Company having such
Preferred Securities outstanding in an amount that for any reason is in excess of the amount which
may now or hereafter qualify for treatment as Tier 1 Capital under applicable capital adequacy
guidelines. By way of example, the inability of the Company to treat all or any portion of the
liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities as Tier 1 Capital as a result of the Final Rule on
Risk-Based Capital Standards: Trust Preferred Securities and the Definition of Capital, adopted on
March 1, 2005, by the Federal Reserve, shall not constitute the basis for a Capital

execution and/or delivery thereof, such substitute document or instrument shall be deemed to have
been executed and/or delivered as of the date or dates required with respect to the document or
instrument for which it is substituted. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any
Securities issued under the authority of such defective document or instrument shall nevertheless
be the valid obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits of this Indenture equally and
ratably with all other Outstanding Securities.

     SECTION 1.4. Acts of Holders.

     (a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action
provided by this Indenture to be given to or taken by Holders may be embodied in and evidenced by

agent thereof duly appointed in writing; and, except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such
action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments (including any appointment of an
agent) is or are delivered to the Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the
Company. 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 Indenture and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the
Company, if made in the manner provided in this Section 1.4.

     (b) 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 the certificate of any 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 or her the execution

 12 

 

thereof. Where such execution is by a Person acting in other than his or her individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her
authority. The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing, or
the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that the
Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may determine.

     (c) The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register.

     (d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by
the Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of
every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu
thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company in
reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.

     (e) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard
to any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of such
Security or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may do so pursuant to such
appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.

     (f) Except as set forth in paragraph (g) of this Section 1.4, the Company may set any
day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled
to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or
other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders of
Securities. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding
Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be entitled to take the relevant
action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that no such
action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date (as
defined below) by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such
record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Company from setting a
new record date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this
paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any
Person be canceled and of no effect). Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the proposed
action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Trustee in writing and to
each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 1.6.

     (g) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of
Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default, (ii)
any declaration of acceleration or rescission or annulment thereof referred to in Section
5.2, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section 5.7(b) or (iv)
any direction referred to in Section 5.12. If any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and no other Holders, shall
be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders
remain Holders after such record date; provided, that no such action shall be effective hereunder
unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal
amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed
to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has

 13 

 

previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall
automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect). Promptly after any
record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause
notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be
given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in
Section 1.6.

     (h) With respect to any record date set pursuant to paragraph (f) or (g) of this Section
1.4, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration Date”
and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided, that no
such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the
other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in
Section 1.6, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not
designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 1.4, the party
hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have initially designated the ninetieth
(90th) day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject
to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the one hundred and eightieth (180th)
day after the applicable record date.

     SECTION 1.5. Notices, Etc.

     Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, Act of Holders, or
other document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or

sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the
Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office,

     (b) the Company by the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to

Financial Officer, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Trustee by the
Company, or

     (c) the Placement Agent by the Trustee, the Company, any Holder or any holder or beneficial
owner of the Preferred Securities, shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing

class, postage prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event to the address of such Holder as it
appears in the Securities Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the
earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. If, by reason of the suspension of or
irregularities in regular mail service or for any other reason, it shall be impossible or
impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders when said notice is required to be given
pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be
satisfactory to the Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. In any case
where notice to Holders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect
in any notice so mailed, to any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with
respect to other Holders. Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may
be waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the
event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall
be filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of
any action taken in reliance upon such waiver.

     SECTION 1.7. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents.

     The Article and Section headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and
shall not affect the construction of this Indenture.

which the assignee agrees in writing to perform the Company’s obligations hereunder, the Company
shall not assign its obligations hereunder.

     SECTION 1.9. Separability Clause.

     If any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or
unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in
any way be affected or impaired thereby, and there shall be deemed substituted for the provision at
issue a valid, legal and enforceable provision as similar as possible to the provision at issue.

     SECTION 1.10. Benefits of Indenture.

     Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person,

a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities)
payment of interest, premium, if any, or principal or other amounts in respect of such Security
shall not be made on such date, but shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day (and no
interest shall accrue in respect of the amounts whose payment is so delayed for the period from and
after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity, as the case may be, until
such next succeeding Business Day) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next succeeding

     (b) Such legend shall not be removed from any Security unless there is delivered to the
Company satisfactory evidence, which may include an Opinion of Counsel, as may be reasonably
required to ensure that any future transfers thereof may be made without restriction under or
violation of the provisions of the Securities Act and other applicable law. Upon provision of such

Company Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities that are printed,
lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any denomination, substantially
of the tenor of the definitive Securities in lieu of which they are issued and with such
appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing
such Securities may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

     (b) If temporary Securities are issued, the Company will cause definitive Securities to be
prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Securities, the temporary
Securities shall be exchangeable for definitive Securities upon surrender of the temporary
Securities at the office or agency of the Company designated for that purpose without charge to the
Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Company shall
execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor one or more definitive
Securities of any authorized denominations having the same Original Issue Date and Stated Maturity
and having the same terms as such temporary Securities. Until so exchanged, the temporary
Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as
definitive Securities.

     SECTION 2.5. Definitive Securities.

     The Securities issued on the Original Issue Date shall be in definitive form. The definitive
Securities shall be printed, lithographed or engraved, or produced by any combination of these
methods, if required by any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, on a steel
engraved border or steel engraved borders or may be produced in any other manner permitted by the
rules of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be listed, all as determined by the
officers executing such Securities, as evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

ARTICLE III

The Securities

     SECTION 3.1. Payment of Principal and Interest.

     (a) The unpaid principal amount of the Securities shall bear interest at a fixed rate per
annum equal to 6.729% through the Interest Payment Date in January, 2012, and a variable rate per
annum, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus 1.65% thereafter, such interest to accrue from the
Original Issue Date or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid
or duly provided for, and any overdue principal, premium or Additional Tax Sums and any overdue
installment of interest shall bear Additional Interest (to the extent payment of such interest
would be legally enforceable) at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.729% through the Interest
Payment Date in January, 2012, and a variable rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus
1.65% thereafter, compounded quarterly, from the dates such amounts are due until they are paid or
funds for the payment thereof are made available for payment.

     (b) Interest and Additional Interest on any Security that is payable, and is punctually paid
or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name that
Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the
Regular Record Date for such interest, except that interest and any Additional Interest payable on
the Stated Maturity (or any date of principal repayment upon early maturity) of the principal of a
Security or on a Redemption Date shall be paid to the Person to whom principal is paid. The initial
payment of interest on any Security that is issued between a Regular Record Date and the related
Interest Payment Date shall be payable as provided in such Security.

     (c) Any interest on any Security that is due and payable, but is not timely paid or duly
provided for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities (herein called “Defaulted Interest”)
shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by
virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at its
election in each case, as provided in paragraph (i) or (ii) below:

     (i) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in
whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at
the close of business on a special record date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest (a
“Special Record Date”), which shall be fixed in the following manner. At least thirty (30)
days prior to the date of the proposed payment, the Company shall notify the Trustee in
writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the
date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the
Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of
such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such
deposit prior to the date of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in
trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest. Thereupon the
Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which
shall be not more than fifteen (15) days and not less than ten (10) days prior to the date
of the proposed payment and not less than ten (10) days after the receipt by the Trustee of
the notice of the proposed payment. The

 18 

 

Trustee shall promptly notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name
and at the expense of the Company, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such
Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be mailed, first class, postage
prepaid, to each Holder of a Security at the address of such Holder as it appears in the
Securities Register not less than ten (10) days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice
of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor
having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names
the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such Special
Record Date; or

     (ii) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner
not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange or automated quotation
system on which the Securities may be listed, traded or quoted and, upon such notice as may
be required by such exchange or automated quotation system (or by the Trustee if the
Securities are not listed), if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the
proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the
Trustee.

     (d) Payments of interest on the Securities shall include interest accrued to but excluding the
respective Interest Payment Dates. Through the Interest Payment Date in January, 2012, the amount
of interest payable for any interest period shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day
year of twelve (12) thirty (30)-day months and the amount payable for any partial period shall be
computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve (12) thirty
(30)-day months. Thereafter, the amount of interest payable for any interest period shall be
computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the
relevant interest period.

     (e) Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be made 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. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest due at
the Maturity of such Securities shall be made at the Place of Payment upon surrender of such
Securities to the Paying Agent and payments of interest shall be made subject to such surrender
where applicable, by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a banking institution in
the United States as may be designated in writing to the Paying Agent at least ten (10) Business
Days prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto unless proper written transfer
instructions have not been received by the relevant record date, in which case such payments shall
be made by check mailed to the address of such Person as such address shall appear in the Security
Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the holder of the Security is the Property
Trustee, the payment of the principal of (and premium if any) and interest (including any overdue
installment of interest and Additional Tax Sums, if any) on the Security will be made at such place
and to such account as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

     (f) Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1, each Security delivered
under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security shall
carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other
Security.

 19 

 

     SECTION 3.2. Denominations.

     The Securities shall be in registered form without coupons and shall be issuable in minimum
denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof.

     SECTION 3.3. Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

     (a) At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the
Company may deliver Securities in an aggregate principal amount (including all then Outstanding
Securities) not in excess of $25,774,000 executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication,
together with a Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the
Trustee in accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. In
authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this Indenture
in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully
protected in relying upon:

     (i) a copy of any Board Resolution relating thereto; and

     (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that (1) such Securities, when authenticated and
delivered by the Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any
conditions specified in such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding
obligations of the Company, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer,
reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or
affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles; (2) the Securities have been
duly authorized and executed by the Company and have been delivered to the Trustee for
authentication in accordance with this Indenture; and (3) the Securities are not required to
be registered under the Securities Act.

     (b) The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board,
its Vice Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or one of its Vice
Presidents. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile.
Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the
proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such individuals or any
of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such
Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of such Securities.

     (c) No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by the manual signature of
one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and
delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver such
Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.8, for all purposes of
this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and delivered
hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

 20 

 

     (d) Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

     SECTION 3.4. Global Securities.

     (a) Upon the election of the Holder after the Original Issue Date, which election need not be
in writing, the Securities owned by such Holder shall be issued in the form of one or more Global
Securities registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee. Each Global Security issued
under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated by the Company
for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or a nominee thereof
or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all
purposes of this Indenture.

     (b) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged
in whole or in part for registered Securities, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or in
part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global
Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary advises the Trustee and the Company in
writing that such Depositary is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities as Depositary with respect to such Global Security, and no qualified successor is
appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of receipt by the Company of such notice, (ii)
such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act and no successor
is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days after obtaining knowledge of such event, (iii)
the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company Order stating that the Company elects to
terminate the book-entry system through the Depositary or (iv) an Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii)
or (iv) above, the Trustee shall notify the Depositary and instruct the Depositary to notify all
owners of beneficial interests in such Global Security of the occurrence of such event and of the
availability of Securities to such owners of beneficial interests requesting the same. Upon the
issuance of such Securities and the registration in the Securities Register of such Securities in
the names of the Holders of the beneficial interests therein, the Trustees shall recognize such
holders of beneficial interests as Holders.

     (c) If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in part, or if
another Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any Global
Security, then either (i) such Global Security shall be so surrendered for exchange or cancellation
as provided in this Article III or (ii) the principal amount thereof shall be reduced or
increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or canceled, or equal to the
principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a beneficial interest therein, as
the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on the records of the Securities
Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the Applicable Depositary Procedures, shall
instruct the Depositary or its authorized representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its
records. Upon any such surrender or adjustment of a Global Security by the Depositary, accompanied
by registration instructions, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver any Securities issuable in exchange for such Global Security (or any portion thereof) in
accordance with the instructions of the Depositary. The Trustee shall not be liable for any delay
in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in
relying on, such instructions.

 21 

 

     (d) Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in
exchange for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be authenticated and
delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered
in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee thereof.

     (e) Securities distributed to holders of Book-Entry Preferred Securities (as defined in the
Trust Agreement) upon the dissolution of the Trust shall be distributed in the form of one or more
Global Securities registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, and deposited with the
Securities Registrar, as custodian for such Depositary, or with such Depositary, for credit by the
Depositary to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners of the Securities represented
thereby (or such other accounts as they may direct). Securities distributed to holders of
Preferred Securities other than Book-Entry Preferred Securities upon the dissolution of the Trust
shall not be issued in the form of a Global Security or any other form intended to facilitate
book-entry trading in beneficial interests in such Securities.

     (f) The Depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the
Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture and the Securities, and owners
of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the Applicable
Depositary Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a Global Security shall
be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected only through, records
maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Depositary Participants. The Securities
Registrar and the Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the Depositary for all purposes of this
Indenture relating to a Global Security (including the payment of principal and interest thereon
and the giving of instructions or directions by owners of beneficial interests therein and the
giving of notices) as the sole Holder of the Security and shall have no obligations to the owners
of beneficial interests therein. Neither the Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall have any
liability in respect of any transfers effected by the Depositary.

     (g) The rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall be exercised only
through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such
owners and the Depositary and/or its Depositary Participants.

     (h) No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Security held on its behalf by a
Depositary shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Security, and
such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the
Trustee as the owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. None of the Company, the
Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any responsibility or liability for
any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests
of a Global Security or maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such
beneficial ownership interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the
Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the Trustee from giving effect to any written
certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by a Depositary or impair, as between a
Depositary and such holders of beneficial interests, the operation of customary practices governing
the exercise of the rights of the Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of any Security.

 22 

 

     SECTION 3.5. Registration, Transfer and Exchange Generally.

     (a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the
“Securities Register”) in which the registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Securities
(the “Securities Registrar”), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall
provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers and exchanges of Securities. The
Trustee shall at all times also be the Securities Registrar. The provisions of Article VI
shall apply to the Trustee in its role as Securities Registrar.

     (b) Subject to compliance with Section 2.2(b), upon surrender for registration of
transfer of any Security at the offices or agencies of the Company designated for that purpose the
Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Securities of any authorized denominations of
like tenor and aggregate principal amount.

     (c) At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any
authorized denominations, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the
Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for
exchange, the Company shall execute, and upon receipt thereof the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

     (d) All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid
obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under this
Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.

     (e) Every Security presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by
the Company or the Trustee) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer
in form satisfactory to the Company and the Securities Registrar, duly executed by the Holder
thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing.

     (f) No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or exchange of Securities,
but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities.

     (g) Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 3.5 (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period
beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of selection for redemption
of Securities pursuant to Article XI and ending at the close of business on the day of
mailing of the notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so
selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any such Security to be
redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.

     (h) The Company shall designate an office or offices or agency or agencies where Securities
may be surrendered for registration or transfer or exchange. The Company initially designates the
Corporate Trust Office as its office and agency for such purposes. The Company

 23 

 

shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee and to the Holders of any change in the
location of any such office or agency.

     SECTION 3.6. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

     (a) If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee together with such security or
indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them harmless, the
Company shall execute and upon receipt thereof the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in
exchange therefor a new Security of like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing a number
not contemporaneously outstanding.

     (b) If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or indemnity
as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the
Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company
shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in lieu of
any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new Security of like tenor and aggregate principal
amount as such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, and bearing a number not contemporaneously
outstanding.

     (c) If any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become
due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such
Security.

     (d) Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.6, the Company may
require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee)
connected therewith.

     (e) Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.6 in lieu of any mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation
of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall be at any
time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and
proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.

     (f) The provisions of this Section 3.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

     SECTION 3.7. Persons Deemed Owners.

     The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall treat the Person in
whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving
payment of principal of and any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever,
and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.

 24 

 

     SECTION 3.8. Cancellation.

     All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered
to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and
Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly canceled by
it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever,
and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section
3.8, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities shall be disposed
of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practices and the Trustee shall deliver to the
Company a certificate of such disposition.

     SECTION 3.9. Deferrals of Interest Payment Dates.

     (a) So long as no Event of Default pursuant to Sections 5.1(c), (e),
(f), (g) or (h) has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the
right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Security, to defer the payment of
interest on the Securities for a period of up to twenty (20) consecutive quarterly interest payment
periods (each such period, an “Extension Period”), during which Extension Period(s), the Company
shall have the right to make no payments or partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment
Date (except any Additional Tax Sums that otherwise may be due and payable). No Extension Period
shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date and no Extension Period shall extend beyond
the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities. No interest shall be due and payable
during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would
otherwise have been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest (to
the extent payment of such interest would be legally enforceable) at a fixed rate per annum equal
to 6.729% through the Interest Payment Date in January, 2012, and a variable rate per annum, reset
quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus 1.65% thereafter, compounded quarterly, from the dates on which
amounts would have otherwise been due and payable until paid or until funds for the payment thereof
have been made available for payment. At the end of any such Extension Period, the Company shall
pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the Securities together with such Additional Interest.
Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the Company may extend such Extension Period
and further defer the payment of interest; provided, that (i) all such previous and further
extensions comprising such Extension Period do not exceed twenty (20) quarterly interest payment
periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date and (iii)
no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities.
Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid
interest and any Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect
to begin a new Extension Period; provided, that (i) such Extension Period does not exceed twenty
(20) quarterly interest payment periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an
Interest Payment Date, (iii) no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the
principal of the Securities and (iv) no Event of Default pursuant to Sections 5.1(c),
(e), (f), (g) or (h) has occurred and is continuing. The Company
shall give (i) the Holders of the Securities, (ii) the Trustee, (iii) the Property Trustee and (iv)
any beneficial owner of the Preferred Securities reasonably identified to the Company (which
identification may be made either by such beneficial owner or by the

25

 

Placement Agent or any Purchaser) written notice of its election to begin any such Extension
Period no later than the close of business on the fifteenth (15th) Business Day prior to the next
succeeding Interest Payment Date on which interest on the Securities would be payable but for such
deferral.

     (b) In connection with any such Extension Period, the Company shall be subject to the
restrictions set forth in Section 10.6(a).

     SECTION 3.10. Right of Set-Off.

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall have the right to set off
any payment it is otherwise required to make in respect of any Security to the extent the Company
has theretofore made, or is concurrently on the date of such payment making, a payment under the
Guarantee Agreement relating to such Security or to a holder of Preferred Securities pursuant to an
action undertaken under Section 5.8 of this Indenture.

     SECTION 3.11. Agreed Tax Treatment.

     Each Security issued hereunder shall provide that the Company and, by its acceptance or
acquisition of a Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder of, and any Person that
acquires a direct or indirect beneficial interest in, such Security, intend and agree to treat such
Security as indebtedness of the Company for United States Federal, state and local tax purposes and
to treat the Preferred Securities (including but not limited to all payments and proceeds with
respect to the Preferred Securities) as an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust
(and payments and proceeds therefrom, respectively) for United States Federal, state and local tax
purposes. The provisions of this Indenture shall be interpreted to further this intention and
agreement of the parties.

     SECTION 3.12. CUSIP Numbers.

     The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and,
if so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption and other similar or related
materials as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice or other materials may state
that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the
Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption or other materials and that reliance may be
placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

ARTICLE IV

Satisfaction and Discharge

     SECTION 4.1. Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.

     This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further effect (except as to any
surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided
for and as otherwise provided in this Section 4.1) and the Trustee, on demand of and at

26

 

the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and
discharge of this Indenture, when

     (a) either

     (i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (A) Securities
that have been mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid as
provided in Section 3.6 and (B) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore
been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid
to the Company or discharged from such trust as provided in Section 10.2) have been
delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

     (ii) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation

	 	(A)	 	have become due and payable, or
	 
	 	(B)	 	will become due and payable at their Stated
Maturity within one year of the date of deposit, or
	 
	 	(C)	 	are to be called for redemption within one year
under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice
of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of the
Company,

and the Company, in the case of subclause (ii)(A), (B) or (C) above, has deposited or caused
to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose (x) an amount in
the currency or currencies in which the Securities are payable, (y) Government Obligations
which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in
accordance with their terms will provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money
in an amount or (z) a combination thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a
nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants expressed in a written

     SECTION 5.2. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

     (a) If an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 5.1(c), (e), (f),
(g) or (h) occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or the
Holders of not less than twenty five percent (25%) in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities may declare the principal amount of all the Securities to be due and payable
immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by Holders),
provided, that if, upon an Event of Default pursuant to Sections 5.1(c), (e),
(f), (g) or (h), the Trustee or the Holders of not less than twenty five
percent (25%) in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities fail to declare the principal of
all the Outstanding Securities to be immediately due and payable, the holders of at least twenty
five percent (25%) in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities then outstanding

the Outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Indenture Trustee, or the holders of a
majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, by written notice to the

the principal of Securities that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured
or waived as provided in Section 5.13;

provided, that if the Holders of such Securities fail to annul such declaration and waive such
default, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities then outstanding shall also have the right to rescind and annul such declaration and its
consequences by written notice to the Property Trustee, the Company and the Trustee, subject to the
satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraph (b) of this Section 5.2. No such
rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

     (a) The Company covenants that if:

     (i) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest (including any
Additional Interest) on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable, subject to
the deferral of any due date in the case of an Extension Period, and such default continues
for a period of thirty (30) days, or

     (ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of and any premium on any Security
at the Maturity thereof,

30

 

the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of
such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and any
premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) and, in addition thereto, all amounts
owing the Trustee under Section 6.6.

     (b) If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its
own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection
of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree, and
may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such Securities and collect the
moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the
Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever situated.

     (c) If an Event of Default with respect to Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee
may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of
Securities by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to
protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or
agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce
any other proper remedy.

     SECTION 5.4. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

     In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, composition or similar judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized
hereunder in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In
particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property
payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 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 Trustee and, in the
event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
first pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts owing the Trustee, any
predecessor Trustee and other Persons under Section 6.6.

     SECTION 5.5. Trustee May Enforce Claim Without Possession of Securities.

     All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and
enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof
in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, subject
to Article XII and after provision for the payment of all the amounts owing the Trustee,
any predecessor Trustee and other Persons under Section 6.6, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

31

 

     SECTION 5.6. Application of Money Collected.

     Any money or property collected or to be applied by the Trustee with respect to the Securities
pursuant to this Article V shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates
fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money or property on account of
principal or any premium or interest (including any Additional Interest), upon presentation of the
Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender
thereof if fully paid:

     FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee, any predecessor Trustee and other
Persons under Section 6.6;

     SECOND: To the payment of all Senior Debt of the Company if and to the extent required by
Article XII.

     THIRD: Subject to Article XII, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon
the Securities for principal and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) in
respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for
principal and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest), respectively; and

     FOURTH: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto.

     SECTION 5.7. Limitation on Suits.

     Subject to Section 5.8, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute
any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a
custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) or for
any other remedy hereunder, unless:

     (a) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of
Default with respect to the Securities;

     (b) the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of
such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

     (c) such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs,
expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;

     (d) the Trustee after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to
institute any such proceeding for sixty (60) days; and

     (e) no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during
such sixty (60)-day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities;

32

 

it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any
manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing itself of, any provision of this Indenture to affect,
disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Securities, or to obtain or to seek to
obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this
Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such
Holders.

     SECTION 5.8. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest;
Direct Action by Holders of Preferred Securities.

     Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have
the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any
premium on such Security at its Maturity and payment of interest (including any Additional
Interest) on such Security when due and payable and to institute suit for the enforcement of any
such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. Any
registered holder of the Preferred Securities shall have the right, upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default described in Section 5.1(a), Section 5.1(b) or Section 5.1(c),
to institute a suit directly against the Company for enforcement of payment to such holder of
principal of and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities
having a principal amount equal to the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities
held by such holder.

     SECTION 5.9. Restoration of Rights and Remedies.

     If the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities has instituted any proceeding
to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee, such Holder or such
holder of Preferred Securities, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee, such Holders
and such holder of Preferred Securities shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights
and remedies of the Trustee, such Holder and such holder of Preferred Securities shall continue as
though no such proceeding had been instituted.

     SECTION 5.10. Rights and Remedies Cumulative.

     Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.6(f), no right or remedy herein conferred
upon or reserved to the Trustee or the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or
remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in
addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in
equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise,
shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

     SECTION 5.11. Delay or Omission Not Waiver.

     No delay or omission of the Trustee, any Holder of any Securities or any holder of any
Preferred Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair
any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence
therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or

33

 

to the Holders and the right and remedy given to the holders of Preferred Securities by
Section 5.8 may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by
the Trustee, the Holders or the holders of Preferred Securities, as the case may be.

     SECTION 5.12. Control by Holders.

     The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities (or, as the case may be, the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of
the Preferred Securities) shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting
any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred
on the Trustee; provided, that:

     (a) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture,

     (b) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not
inconsistent with such direction, and

     (c) subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, the Trustee shall have the right to
decline to follow such direction if a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee shall, in good
faith, reasonably determine that the proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to the
Holders not joining in any such direction or would involve the Trustee in personal liability.

     SECTION 5.13. Waiver of Past Defaults.

     (a) The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities and the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the
Preferred Securities may waive any past Event of Default hereunder and its consequences except an
Event of Default:

     (i) in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest (including any
Additional Interest) on any Security (unless such Event of Default has been cured and the
Company has paid to or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all installments
of interest (including any Additional Interest) due and past due and all principal of and
any premium on all Securities due otherwise than by acceleration), or

     (ii) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Article IX cannot
be modified or amended without the consent of each Holder of any Outstanding Security.

     (b) Any such waiver shall be deemed to be on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities or,
in the case of a waiver by holders of Preferred Securities issued by such Trust, by all holders of
Preferred Securities.

     (c) Upon any such waiver, such Event of Default shall cease to exist and any Event of Default
arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but no
such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent
thereon.

34

 

     SECTION 5.14. Undertaking for Costs.

     All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his or her acceptance
thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit
for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee
for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of
an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess
reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in
such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.14 shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in
the aggregate more than ten percent (10%) in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of or any premium on the Security after the Stated Maturity or any interest (including
any Additional Interest) on any Security after it is due and payable.

     SECTION 5.15. Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

     The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time
insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any
usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may
affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants
that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee,
but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been
enacted.

ARTICLE VI

The Trustee

     SECTION 6.1. Corporate Trustee Required.

     There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities. The Trustee
shall be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any
state thereof, authorized to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus
of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority and
having an office within the United States. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at
least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of such supervising or examining authority,
then, for the purposes of this Section 6.1, the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent
report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.1, it shall resign immediately in the
manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI.

35

 

     SECTION 6.2. Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

     (a) Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

     (i) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are
specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be
read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and

     (ii) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to
the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon
certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this
Indenture; provided, that in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any
provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall
be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they substantially conform
on their face to the requirements of this Indenture.

     (b) If an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from the Holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (or, if applicable, from the holders of a
majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities), exercise such of the rights
and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its
exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such
person’s own affairs.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any
of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it 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 Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or
affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 6.2.
To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Trustee has duties and liabilities relating to the
Holders, the Trustee shall not be liable to any Holder for the Trustee’s good faith reliance on the
provisions of this Indenture. The provisions of this Indenture, to the extent that they restrict
the duties and liabilities of the Trustee otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the
Company and the Holders to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustee.

     (d) No provisions of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability
with respect to matters that are within the authority of the Trustee under this Indenture for its
own negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct, except that:

     (i) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error or judgment made in good faith by an
authorized officer of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent
in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

     (ii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be
taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of at least a

36

 

majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities (or, if
applicable, from the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities), relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee under this Indenture; and

     (iii) the Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it
hereunder and money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other
funds except to the extent required by law.

     SECTION 6.3. Notice of Defaults.

     Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any default actually known to the Trustee, the
Trustee shall give the Holders notice of such default unless such default shall have been cured or
waived; provided, that except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Securities, the Trustee shall be fully protected in withholding the
notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of
directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the
notice is in the interest of holders of Securities; and provided, further, that in the case of any
default of the character specified in Section 5.1(d), no such notice to Holders shall be
given until at least thirty (30) days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this
Section 6.3, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time
or both would become, an Event of Default.

     SECTION 6.4. Certain Rights of Trustee.

     Subject to the provisions of Section 6.2:

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

     (b) if (i) in performing its duties under this Indenture the Trustee is required to decide
between alternative courses of action, (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Indenture
the Trustee finds ambiguous or inconsistent with any other provisions contained herein or (iii) the
Trustee is unsure of the application of any provision of this Indenture, then, except as to any
matter as to which the Holders are entitled to decide under the terms of this Indenture, the
Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Company requesting the Company’s written instruction as to
the course of action to be taken and the Trustee shall take such action, or refrain from taking
such action, as the Trustee shall be instructed in writing to take, or to refrain from taking, by
the Company; provided, that if the Trustee does not receive such instructions from the Company
within ten Business Days after it has delivered such notice or such reasonably shorter period of
time set forth in such notice the Trustee may, but shall be under no duty to, take such action, or
refrain from taking such action, as the Trustee shall deem advisable and in the best interests of
the Holders, in which event the Trustee shall have no liability except for its own negligence, bad
faith or willful misconduct;

37

 

     (c) any request or direction of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company
Request or Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced
by a Board Resolution;

     (d) the Trustee may consult with counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Trustee, the
Company or any of its Affiliates, and may include any of its employees) and the advice of such
counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon;

     (e) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in
it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders or any holder of Preferred
Securities pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders (or such holders of Preferred
Securities) shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it
against the costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities
that might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction, including reasonable
advances as may be requested by the Trustee;

     (f) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated
in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction,
consent, order, bond, indenture, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee in its discretion
may make such inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the
Trustee shall determine to make such inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the
books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent or attorney;

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

     (h) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable to
receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action with
respect to enforcing any remedy or right hereunder, the Trustees (i) may request instructions from
the Holders (which instructions may only be given by the Holders of the same aggregate principal

hereunder.

instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all

trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
provided, that such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VI.
In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in
office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation or as otherwise provided above in this
Section 6.9 to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the
Securities so authenticated, and in case any Securities shall not have been authenticated, any
successor to the Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor
Trustee or in the name of such

41

 

successor Trustee, and in all cases the certificate of authentication shall have the full
force which it is provided anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture that the certificate of
the Trustee shall have.

     SECTION 6.10. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

     The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of
authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any
Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. Neither
the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of the Securities or the proceeds thereof.

     SECTION 6.11. Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof or
pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the
Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the authentication and delivery

State or Territory thereof or the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as
Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and
subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent
publishes reports of condition at least annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of said
supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 6.11 the combined
capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and
surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an
Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 6.11, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
effect specified in this Section 6.11.

     (b) Any Person into which an Authenticating Agent 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 Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of
the corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent shall be the successor Authenticating Agent
hereunder, provided such Person shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 6.11,
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the
Authenticating Agent.

     (c) An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the
Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating
Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the

42

 

Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at
any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of
this Section 6.11, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent eligible under
the provisions of this Section 6.11, which shall be acceptable to the Company, and shall
give notice of such appointment to all Holders. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance
of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its
predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent.

     (d) The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services under this Section 6.11 in such amounts as the Company and
the Authenticating Agent shall agree from time to time.

     (e) If an appointment of an Authenticating Agent is made pursuant to this Section
6.11, the Securities may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of
authentication, an alternative certificate of authentication in the following form:

     This represents Securities designated therein and referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

     The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the
end of each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate
(substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C) covering the preceding fiscal
year, stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Company is in default in
the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of this Indenture
(without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder), and if the

49

 

Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of
which they may have knowledge.

     SECTION 10.4. Calculation Agent.

     (a) The Company hereby agrees that for so long as any of the Securities remain Outstanding,
there will at all times be an agent appointed to calculate LIBOR in respect of each Interest
Payment Date in accordance with the terms of Schedule A (the “Calculation Agent”). The
Company has initially appointed the Property Trustee as Calculation Agent for purposes of
determining LIBOR for each Interest Payment Date. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the
Company at any time. Except as described in the immediately preceding sentence, so long as the
Property Trustee holds any of the Securities, the Calculation Agent shall be the Property Trustee.
If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the Company, the
Company will promptly appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent the London office of a leading
bank which is engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international Eurodollar market
and which does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with the Company or its
Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties without a successor having been duly
appointed.

     (b) The Calculation Agent shall be required to agree that, as soon as possible after 11:00
a.m. (London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date (as defined in Schedule A), but in no
event later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately following each LIBOR
Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate the interest rate and dollar amount
(rounded to the nearest cent, with half a cent being rounded upwards) for the related Interest
Payment Date, and will communicate such rate and amount to the Company, the Trustee, each Paying
Agent and the Depositary. The Calculation Agent will also specify to the Company the quotations
upon which the foregoing rates and amounts are based and, in any event, the Calculation Agent shall
notify the Company before 5:00 p.m. (London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date that either:
(i) it has determined or is in the process of determining the foregoing rates and amounts or (ii)
it has not determined and is not in the process of determining the foregoing rates and amounts,
together with its reasons therefor. The Calculation Agent’s determination of the foregoing rates
and amounts for any Interest Payment Date will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and
binding upon all parties. For the sole purpose of calculating the interest rate for the
Securities, “Business Day” shall be defined as any day on which dealings in deposits in Dollars are
transacted in the London interbank market.

     SECTION 10.5. Additional Tax Sums.

     If (a) the Trust is the Holder of all of the Outstanding Securities and (b) a Tax Event
described in clause (i) or (iii) in the definition of Tax Event in Section 1.1 hereof has
occurred and is continuing, the Company shall pay to the Trust (and its permitted successors or
assigns under the related Trust Agreement) for so long as the Trust (or its permitted successor or
assignee) is the registered holder of the Outstanding Securities, such amounts as may be necessary
in order that the amount of Distributions (including any Additional Interest Amount (as defined in
the Trust Agreement)) then due and payable by the Trust on the Preferred Securities and Common
Securities that at any time remain outstanding in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be
reduced as a result of any Additional Taxes arising from such Tax

50

 

Event (additional such amounts payable by the Company to the Trust, the “Additional Tax
Sums”). Whenever in this Indenture or the Securities there is a reference in any context to the
payment of principal of or interest on the Securities, such mention shall be deemed to include
mention of the payments of the Additional Tax Sums provided for in this Section 10.5 to the
extent that, in such context, Additional Tax Sums are, were or would be payable in respect thereof
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.5 and express mention of the payment of
Additional Tax Sums (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as excluding
Additional Tax Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made; provided,
that the deferral of the payment of interest pursuant to Section 3.9 on the Securities
shall not defer the payment of any Additional Tax Sums that may be due and payable.

     SECTION 10.6. Additional Covenants.

     (a) The Company covenants and agrees with each Holder of Securities that if an Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing or the Company shall have given notice of its
election to begin an Extension Period with respect to the Securities and shall not have rescinded
such notice, or such Extension Period, or any extension thereof, shall be continuing, it shall not
(i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a
liquidation payment with respect to, any of the Company’s Equity Interests, (ii) vote in favor of
or permit or otherwise allow any of its Subsidiaries to declare or pay any dividends or
distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to or
otherwise retire, any of such Subsidiary’s Equity Interests entitling the holders thereof to a
stated rate of return, other than dividends or distributions on Equity Interests issued by any
Subsidiary solely payable to the Company or any Subsidiary thereof (for the avoidance of doubt,
whether such Equity Interests are perpetual or otherwise), or (iii) make any payment of principal
of or any interest or premium on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company
that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in interest to the Securities (other than (A)
repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of Equity Interests of the Company in connection
with any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of
any one or more employees, officers, directors or consultants, in connection with a dividend
reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase or similar plan with respect to any Equity Interests or
in connection with the issuance of Equity Interests of the Company (or securities convertible into
or exercisable for such Equity Interests) as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered
into prior to the applicable Event of Default or Extension Period, (B) as a result of an exchange
or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s Equity Interests (or any Equity Interests of
a Subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s Equity Interests or of any
class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s Equity
Interests, (C) the purchase of fractional interests in Equity Interests of the Company pursuant to
the conversion or exchange provisions of such Equity Interests or the security being converted or
exchanged, (D) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any Rights Plan, the issuance of
rights, Equity Interests or other property under any Rights Plan or the redemption or repurchase of
rights pursuant thereto, or (E) any dividend in the form of Equity Interests, warrants, options or
other rights where the dividend Equity Interests or the Equity Interests issuable upon exercise of
such warrants, options or other rights are the same Equity Interests as those on which the dividend
is being paid or rank pari passu with or junior to such Equity Interests).

51

 

     (b) The Company also covenants with each Holder of Securities (i) to hold, directly or
indirectly, one hundred percent (100%) of the Common Securities of the Trust, provided, that any
permitted successor of the Company hereunder may succeed to the Company’s ownership of such Common
Securities, (ii) as holder of such Common Securities, not to voluntarily dissolve, wind-up or
liquidate the Trust other than (A) in connection with a distribution of the Securities to the
holders of the Preferred Securities in liquidation of the Trust or (B) in connection with certain
mergers, consolidations or amalgamations permitted by the Trust Agreement and (iii) to use its
reasonable commercial efforts, consistent with the terms and provisions of the Trust Agreement, to
cause the Trust to continue to be taxable as a grantor trust and not as a corporation for United
States Federal income tax purposes.

     SECTION 10.7. Waiver of Covenants.

     The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition
contained in Section 10.6 if, before or after the time for such compliance, the Holders of
at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall, by Act of
such Holders, and at least a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Preferred
Securities then outstanding, by consent of such holders, either waive such compliance in such
instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver shall
extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until
such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company in respect of any such covenant
or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

     SECTION 10.8. Treatment of Securities.

     The Company will treat the Securities as indebtedness, and the amounts (other than payments of
principal) payable in respect of the principal amount of such Securities as interest, for all U.S.
federal income tax purposes. All payments in respect of the Securities will be made free and clear
of U.S. withholding tax to any beneficial owner thereof that has provided an Internal Revenue
Service Form W-9 or W-8BEN (or any substitute or successor form) establishing its U.S. or non-U.S.
status for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

     SECTION 11.3. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.

and the Property Trustee under the Trust Agreement in writing of such date and of the principal
amount of the Securities to be redeemed and provide the additional information required to be
included in the notice or notices contemplated by Section 11.5. In the case of any
redemption of Securities, in whole or in part, (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction on
such redemption provided in this Indenture or the Securities or (b) pursuant to an election of the
Company which is subject to a condition specified in this Indenture or the Securities, the Company
shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel evidencing
compliance with such restriction or condition.

     SECTION 11.4. Selection of Securities to be Redeemed.

     (a) If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be
redeemed shall be selected and redeemed on a pro rata basis not more than sixty (60) days prior to
the Redemption Date by the Trustee from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for
redemption, provided, that the unredeemed portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be
in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination)
for such Security.

53

 

     (b) The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for
redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal amount
thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires,
all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in the case of any Security
redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Security
that has been or is to be redeemed.

     (c) The provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 11.4 shall not apply with
respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be redeemed
in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed portion of the
principal amount of the Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less
than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.

     SECTION 11.5. Notice of Redemption.

     (a) Notice of redemption shall be given not later than the thirtieth (30th) day, and not
earlier than the sixtieth (60th) day, prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to
be redeemed, in whole or in part (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Property
Trustee under the related Trust Agreement).

     (b) With respect to Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part, each notice 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, as calculated
by the Company, together with a statement that it is an estimate and that the actual
Redemption Price will be calculated on the fifth 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) if less than all Outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification
(and, in the case of partial redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the particular
Securities to be redeemed;

     (iv) that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon
each such Security or portion thereof, and that any interest (including any Additional
Interest) on such Security or such portion, as the case may be, shall cease to accrue on and
after said date; and

     (v) the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the
Redemption Price.

     (c) Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the election of
the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the name
and at the expense of the Company and shall be irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the manner
provided above shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given,

54

 

whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case, a failure to give such notice by
mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole
or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other
Security.

     SECTION 11.6. Deposit of Redemption Price.

     Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date specified in the notice of
redemption given as provided in Section 11.5, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or

will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.2) an amount of money sufficient
to pay the Redemption Price of, and any accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) on,
all the Securities (or portions thereof) that are to be redeemed on that date.

     SECTION 11.7. Payment of Securities Called for Redemption.

     (a) If any notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 11.5, the
Securities or portion of Securities with respect to which such notice has been given shall become
due and payable on the date and at the place or places stated in such notice at the applicable
Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) to the
Redemption Date. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a Place of Payment specified
in such notice, the Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be paid and redeemed by the
Company at the applicable Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including any
Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date.

     (b) Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and
upon receipt thereof the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the
expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of authorized denominations, in aggregate
principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Security so presented and having the same
Original Issue Date, Stated Maturity and terms.

     (c) If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for
redemption, the principal of and any premium on such Security shall, until paid, bear interest from
the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the Security.

ARTICLE XII

Subordination of Securities

     SECTION 12.1. Securities Subordinate to Senior Debt.

     The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by its acceptance thereof,
likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this
Article XII, the payment of the principal of and any premium and interest (including any
Additional Interest) on each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly made subordinate and
subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt.

55

 

     SECTION 12.2. No Payment When Senior Debt in Default; Payment Over of Proceeds Upon
Dissolution, Etc.

     (a) In the event and during the continuation of any default by the Company in the payment of
any principal of or any premium or interest on any Senior Debt (following any grace period, if
applicable) when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for
prepayment or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, then, upon written notice of such
default to the Company by the holders of such Senior Debt or any trustee therefor, unless and until
such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct or indirect
payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or otherwise) shall be made or agreed to be made
on account of the principal of or any premium or interest (including any Additional Interest) on
any of the Securities, or in respect of any redemption, repayment, retirement, purchase or other
acquisition of any of the Securities.

     (b) In the event of a bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding described in clause (e) or
(f) of the definition of Event of Default (each such event, if any, herein sometimes referred to as
a “Proceeding”), all Senior Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of
any such proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or distribution, whether in
cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any Holder of any of the Securities on account
thereof. Any payment or distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than
securities of the Company or any other entity provided for by a plan of reorganization or
readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these
subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, to the
payment of all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect thereof
under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment), which would otherwise (but for these
subordination provisions) be payable or deliverable in respect of the Securities shall be paid or
delivered directly to the holders of Senior Debt in accordance with the priorities then existing
among such holders until all Senior Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the
commencement of any Proceeding) shall have been paid in full.

     (c) In the event of any Proceeding, after payment in full of all sums owing with respect to
Senior Debt, the Holders of the Securities, together with the holders of any obligations of the
Company ranking on a parity with the Securities, shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining
assets of the Company the amounts at the time due and owing on account of unpaid principal of and
premium, if any, and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities and such other
obligations before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property or otherwise, shall
be made on account of any Equity Interests or any obligations of the Company ranking junior to the
Securities and such other obligations. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or
distribution of any character or any security, whether in cash, securities or other property (other
than securities of the Company or any other entity provided for by a plan of reorganization or
readjustment the payment of which is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these
subordination provisions with respect to the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, to the
payment of all Senior Debt at the time outstanding and to any securities issued in respect thereof
under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment) shall be received by the Trustee or any
Holder in contravention of any of the terms hereof and before all Senior Debt shall have been paid
in full, such payment or distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of,
and shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the

56

 

Senior Debt at the time outstanding in accordance with the priorities then existing among such
holders for application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary
to pay all such Senior Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any
Proceeding) in full. In the event of the failure of the Trustee or any Holder to endorse or assign
any such payment, distribution or security, each holder of Senior Debt is hereby irrevocably
authorized to endorse or assign the same.

     (d) The Trustee and the Holders, at the expense of the Company, shall take such reasonable
action (including the delivery of this Indenture to an agent for any holders of Senior Debt or
consent to the filing of a financing statement with respect hereto) as may, in the opinion of
counsel designated by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Debt at the time
outstanding, be necessary or appropriate to assure the effectiveness of the subordination effected
by these provisions.

     (e) The provisions of this Section 12.2 shall not impair any rights, interests,
remedies or powers of any secured creditor of the Company in respect of any security interest the
creation of which is not prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture.

     (f) The securing of any obligations of the Company, otherwise ranking on a parity with the
Securities or ranking junior to the Securities, shall not be deemed to prevent such obligations
from constituting, respectively, obligations ranking on a parity with the Securities or ranking
junior to the Securities.

     SECTION 12.3. Payment Permitted If No Default.

     Nothing contained in this Article XII or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the
Securities shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time, except during the pendency of the conditions
described in paragraph (a) of Section 12.2 or of any Proceeding referred to in Section
12.2, from making payments at any time of principal of and any premium or interest (including
any Additional Interest) on the Securities or (b) the application by the Trustee of any moneys
deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of and any premium or
interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or the retention of such payment by
the Holders, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee, it did not have knowledge (in
accordance with Section 12.8) that such payment would have been prohibited by the
provisions of this Article XII, except as provided in Section 12.8.

     SECTION 12.4. Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Debt.

     Subject to the payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on all Senior Debt, or the
provision for such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the
holders of Senior Debt, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the
payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions of
this Article XII (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company
that by its express terms is subordinated to Senior Debt of the Company to substantially the same
extent as the Securities are subordinated to the Senior Debt and is entitled to like rights of
subrogation by reason of any payments or distributions made to holders of such Senior Debt) to the
rights of the holders of such Senior Debt to receive payments and distributions of cash,

57

 

property and securities applicable to the Senior Debt until the principal of and any premium
and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities shall be paid in full. For
purposes of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Debt of any
cash, property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be
entitled except for the provisions of this Article XII, and no payments made pursuant to
the provisions of this Article XII to the holders of Senior Debt by Holders of the
Securities or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior
Debt, and the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company
to or on account of the Senior Debt.

     SECTION 12.5. Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights.

     The provisions of this Article XII are and are intended solely for the purpose of
defining the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on the one hand and the holders of
Senior Debt on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article XII or elsewhere in this
Indenture or in the Securities is intended to or shall (a) impair, as between the Company and the
Holders of the Securities, the obligations of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to
pay to the Holders of the Securities the principal of and any premium and interest (including any
Additional Interest) on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in
accordance with their terms, (b) affect the relative rights against the Company of the Holders of
the Securities and creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation to the holders of
Senior Debt or (c) prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security (or to the extent expressly
provided herein, the holder of any Preferred Security) from exercising all remedies otherwise
permitted by applicable law upon default under this Indenture, including filing and voting claims
in any Proceeding, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XII of the holders of
Senior Debt to receive cash, property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the
Trustee or such Holder.

     SECTION 12.6. Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.

     Each Holder of a Security by his or her acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee
on his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or
effectuate the subordination provided in this Article XII and appoints the Trustee his or
her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.

     SECTION 12.7. No Waiver of Subordination Provisions.

     (a) No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Debt to enforce subordination as
herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act
on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or
by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of this Indenture,
regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

     (b) Without in any way limiting the generality of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.7,
the holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from to time, without the consent of or notice to
the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to such Holders of

58

 

the Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this
Article XII or the obligations hereunder of such Holders of the Securities to the holders
of Senior Debt, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or terms of
payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Debt, or otherwise amend or
supplement in any manner Senior Debt or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under
which Senior Debt is outstanding, (ii) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with any property
pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt, (iii) release any Person liable in any manner
for the payment of Senior Debt and (iv) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the
Company and any other Person.

     SECTION 12.8. Notice to Trustee.

     (a) The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of
any fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in
respect of the Securities. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XII or any other
provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of the existence of
any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in respect of the
Securities, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have received written
notice thereof from the Company or a holder of Senior Debt or from any trustee, agent or
representative therefor; provided, that if the Trustee shall not have received the notice provided
for in this Section 12.8 at least two Business Days prior to the date upon which by the
terms hereof any monies may become payable for any purpose (including, the payment of the principal
of and any premium on or interest (including any Additional Interest) on any Security), then,
anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and
authority to receive such monies and to apply the same to the purpose for which they were received
and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within two
Business Days prior to such date.

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

     SECTION 12.9. Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent.

     Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article
XII, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon
any order or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is
pending, or a certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian,
assignee for the

59

 

benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to
the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled
to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other
indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XII.

     SECTION 12.10. Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Debt.

     The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, shall not owe or be deemed to
owe any fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt and shall not be liable to any such holders if
it shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Company
or to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be
entitled by virtue of this Article XII or otherwise.

     SECTION 12.11. Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Debt; Preservation of Trustee’s Rights.

     The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this
Article XII with respect to any Senior Debt that may at any time be held by it, to the same
extent as any other holder of Senior Debt, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee
of any of its rights as such holder. With respect to the holders of Senior Debt of the Company, the
Trustee undertakes to perform only such of its obligations as are specifically set forth in this
Article XII, and no implied covenants or obligations with respect to the holders of such Senior
Debt shall be read into this Indenture against the Trustee. Nothing in this Article XII shall
apply to claims of, or payments to, the Trustee under or pursuant to Section 6.6.

     SECTION 12.12. Article Applicable to Paying Agents.

     If at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the
Company and be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article XII shall
in such case (unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including
such Paying Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent
were named in this Article XII in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, that
Sections 12.8 and 12.11 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of
the Company if the Company or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.

     This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall
be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the
same instrument. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Indenture by facsimile

Schedule A

DETERMINATION OF LIBOR

     With respect to the Securities, the London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) shall be
determined by the Calculation Agent in accordance with the following provisions (in each case
rounded to the nearest .000001%):

(1) On the second LIBOR Business Day (as defined below) prior to an Interest Payment Date (each
such day, a “LIBOR Determination Date”), LIBOR for any given security shall, for the following
interest payment period, equal the rate, as obtained by the Calculation Agent from Bloomberg
Financial Markets Commodities News, for three-month U.S. Dollar deposits in Europe, which appears
on Dow Jones Telerate Page 3750 (as defined in the International Swaps and Derivatives Association,
Inc. 1991 Interest Rate and Currency Exchange Definitions), or such other page as may replace such
Page 3750, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date.

(2) If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does not appear on Dow Jones Telerate Page 3750
or such other page as may replace such Page 3750, the Calculation Agent shall determine the
arithmetic mean of the offered quotations of the Reference Banks (as defined below) to leading
banks in the London interbank market for three-month U.S. Dollar deposits in Europe in an amount
determined by the Calculation Agent by reference to requests for quotations as of approximately
11:00 a.m. (London time) on the LIBOR Determination Date made by the Calculation Agent to the
Reference Banks. If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, at least two of the Reference Banks provide
such quotations, LIBOR shall equal such arithmetic mean of such quotations. If, on any LIBOR
Determination Date, only one or none of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR shall be
deemed to be the arithmetic mean of the offered quotations that leading banks in the City of New
York selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting on the relevant LIBOR Determination Date for
three-month U.S. Dollar deposits in Europe in an amount determined by the Calculation Agent by
reference to the principal London offices of leading banks in the London interbank market; provided
that, if the Calculation Agent is required but is unable to determine a rate in accordance with at
least one of the procedures provided above, LIBOR shall be LIBOR as determined on the previous
LIBOR Determination Date.

(3) As used herein: “Reference Banks” means four major banks in the London interbank market
selected by the Calculation Agent; and “LIBOR Business Day” means a day on which commercial banks
are open for business (including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in
London.

	No.                    
	 	$                    

     UCBH Holdings, Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Delaware
(hereinafter called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to ___(the
“Holder”), or registered assigns, the principal sum of
$___ DOLLARS [if the Security is a
Global Security, then insert— or such other principal amount represented hereby as may be set
forth in the records of the Securities Registrar hereinafter referred to in accordance with the
Indenture] on January 30, 2037. The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum
from December 28, 2006, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been
paid or duly provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on
January 30th, April 30th, July 30th and October 30th of each year, commencing on January 30, 2007,
or if any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (and no interest
shall accrue in respect of the amounts whose payment is so delayed for the period from and after
such Interest Payment Date until such next succeeding Business Day), except that, if such Business
Day falls in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest
Payment Date, at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.729% through the Interest Payment Date in
January, 2012, and a variable rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to LIBOR plus 1.65%
thereafter, together with Additional Tax Sums, if any, as provided in Section 10.5 of the
Indenture, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available for payment;
provided, that any overdue principal, premium, if any, or Additional Tax Sums and any overdue
installment of interest shall bear Additional Interest (to the extent that the payment of such
interest shall be legally enforceable) at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.729% through the
Interest Payment Date in January, 2012, and a variable rate per annum, reset quarterly, equal to
LIBOR plus 1.65% thereafter], compounded quarterly, from the dates such amounts are due until they
are paid or made available for payment, and such interest shall be payable on demand.

     Through the Interest Payment Date in January, 2012, the amount of interest payable for any
interest period shall be computed and paid on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve (12) thirty
(30)-day months and the amount payable for any partial period shall be computed on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year of twelve (12) thirty (30)-day months. Thereafter,
the amount of interest payable for any interest period shall be computed and paid on the basis of a
360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant interest period. The interest so
payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall, as provided
in the 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
installment. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease
to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in
whose name this Security (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

 

 

Exhibit A

Securities not less than ten (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
or automated quotation system on which the Securities may be listed, traded or quoted and upon such
notice as may be required by such exchange or automated quotation system, all as more fully
provided in the Indenture.

     So long as no Event of Default pursuant to Sections 5.1(c), (e), (f),
(g) or (h) of the Indenture has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have
the right, at any time and from time to time during the term of this Security, to defer the payment
of interest on this Security for a period of up to twenty (20) consecutive quarterly interest
payment periods (each such period, an “Extension Period”), during which Extension Period(s), no
interest shall be due and payable (except any Additional Tax Sums that may be due and payable). No
Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date, and no Extension Period
shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of this Security. No interest shall be
due and payable during an Extension Period (except any Additional Tax Sums that may be due and
payable), except at the end thereof, but each installment of interest that would otherwise have
been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional Interest (to the extent
payment of such interest would be legally enforceable) at a fixed rate per annum equal to 6.729%
through the Interest Payment Date in January, 2012, and a variable rate per annum, reset quarterly,
equal to LIBOR plus 1.65% thereafter, compounded quarterly, from the dates on which amounts would
have otherwise been due and payable until paid or made available for payment. At the end of any
such Extension Period, the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on this Security,
together with such Additional Interest. Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the
Company may further defer the payment of interest; provided, that (i) all such previous and further
extensions comprising such Extension Period do not exceed twenty (20) quarterly interest payment
periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date and (iii)
no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of this Security.
Upon the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid
interest and any Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect
to begin a new Extension Period; provided, that (i) such Extension Period does not exceed twenty
(20) quarterly interest payment periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an
Interest Payment Date, (iii) no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the
principal of this Security and (iv) no Event of Default pursuant to Sections 5.1(c),
(e), (f), (g) or (h) has occurred and is continuing. The Company
shall give (i) the Holder of this Security, (ii) the Trustee, (iii) the Property Trustee and (iv)
any beneficial owner of the Preferred Securities reasonably identified to the Company (which
identification may be made either by such beneficial owner or by the Placement Agent or any
Purchaser) written notice of its election to begin any such Extension Period no later than the
close of business on the fifteenth (15th) Business Day prior to the next succeeding
Interest Payment Date on which interest on this Security would be payable but for such deferral.

     During any such Extension Period, the Company shall not (i) declare or pay any dividends or
distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any
of the Company’s Equity Interests, (ii) vote in favor of or permit or otherwise allow any of its
Subsidiaries to declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or
make a liquidation payment with respect to or otherwise retire, any of such Subsidiary’s Equity
Interests entitling the holders thereof to a stated rate of return, other than

 

 

Exhibit A

dividends or distributions on Equity Interests issued by any Subsidiary solely payable to the
Company or any Subsidiary thereof (for the avoidance of doubt, whether such Equity Interests are
perpetual or otherwise), or (iii) make any payment of principal of or any interest or premium on or
repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank pari passu in all respects
with or junior in interest to this Security (other than (a) repurchases, redemptions or other
acquisitions of Equity Interests of the Company in connection with (1) any employment contract,
benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees,
officers, directors or consultants, (2) a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase or
similar plan with respect to any Equity Interests or (3) the issuance of Equity Interests of the
Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such Equity Interests) as consideration
in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, (b) as a
result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s Equity Interests (or
any Equity Interests of a Subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s
Equity Interests or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of
the Company’s Equity Interests, (c) the purchase of fractional interests in Equity Interests of the
Company pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such Equity Interests or the security
being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any Rights Plan,
the issuance of rights, Equity Interests or other property under any Rights Plan, or the redemption
or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto or (e) any dividend in the form of Equity Interests,
warrants, options or other rights where the dividend Equity Interests or the Equity Interests
issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights are the same Equity Interests as
those on which the dividend is being paid or rank pari passu with or junior to such Equity
Interests).

     Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Security shall be made 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. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest due at
the Maturity of this Security shall be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for
that purpose in the Place of Payment upon surrender of such Securities to the Paying Agent, and
payments of interest shall be made, subject to such surrender where applicable, by wire transfer at
such place and to such account at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated
in writing to the Paying Agent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date for payment by the
Person entitled thereto unless proper written wire transfer instructions have not been received by
the relevant record date, in which case such payments shall be made by check mailed to the address
of such Person as such address shall appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, so long as the Holder of this Security is the Property Trustee, the payment of the
principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any overdue installment of interest and
Additional Tax Sums, if any) on this Security will be made at such place and to such account as may
be designated by the Property Trustee.

     The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture,
subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt, and
this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each
Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such
provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his or her behalf to take such actions as may
be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the
Trustee his or her

 

 

Exhibit A

attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his or her acceptance
hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in
the Indenture by each holder of Senior Debt, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and
waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

     Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee by manual
signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.

Exhibit A

[FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]

     This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (the
“Securities”) issued under the Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated as of December 28, 2006 (the
“Indenture”), between the Company and Wilmington Trust Company, as Trustee (in such capacity, the
“Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and
all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective
rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the
holders of Senior Debt and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the
Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

     All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture or in the Amended and
Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of December 28, 2006 (as modified, amended or supplemented from
time to time, the “Trust Agreement”), relating to UCBH Capital Trust VI (the “Trust”), among the
Company, as Depositor, the trustees named therein and the holders from time to time of the Trust
Securities issued pursuant thereto, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture or
the Trust Agreement, as the case may be.

     The Company may, on any Interest Payment Date, at its option, upon not less than thirty (30)
days’ nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Holders of the Securities (unless a
shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) on or after January 30, 2012 and
subject to the terms and conditions of Article XI of the Indenture, redeem this Security in
whole at any time or in part from time to time at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred percent
(100%) of the principal amount hereof, together, in the case of any such redemption, with accrued
interest, including any Additional Interest, to but excluding the date fixed for redemption;
provided, that the Company shall have received the prior approval of the Federal Reserve if then
required.

     In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Special Event, the Company
may, at its option, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ nor more than sixty (60) days’ written
notice to the Holders of the Securities (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to
the Trustee), redeem this Security, in whole but not in part, subject to the terms and conditions
of Article XI of the Indenture at the Special Event Redemption Price; provided, that the
Company shall have received the prior approval of the Federal Reserve if then required.

     In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the
unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation
hereof. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be
redeemed shall be selected not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date by the
Trustee from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, by such method as the
Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a
portion of the principal amount of any Security.

     The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company and the
Trustee at any time to enter into a supplemental indenture or indentures for the purpose of
modifying in any manner the rights and obligations of the Company and of the Holders of the
Securities, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting Holders of specified

 

 

Exhibit A

percentages in principal amount of the Securities, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities,
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 herefor
or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

     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 any premium and interest, including any Additional Interest, on this Security
at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

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

     The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations
of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Securities and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

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

     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 Company and, by its acceptance of this Security or a beneficial interest herein, the
Holder of, and any Person that acquires a beneficial interest in, this Security agree that, for
United States federal, state and local tax purposes, it is intended that this Security constitute
indebtedness.

     This Security shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of
the State of New York, without reference to its conflict of laws provisions (other than Section
5-1401 of the General Obligations Law).

to the document or instrument for which it is substituted. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, any Securities issued under the authority of such defective document or
instrument shall nevertheless be the valid obligations of the Company entitled to the benefits
of this Indenture equally and ratably with all other Outstanding Securities.

public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that
the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him or her the execution
thereof. Where such execution is by a Person acting in other than his or her individual
capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his or her
authority. The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing,
or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner that
the Trustee deems sufficient and in accordance with such reasonable rules as the Trustee may
determine.
	 
	 	c.	 	The ownership of Securities shall be proved by the Securities Register.
	 
	 	d.	 	Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action by the
Holder of any Security shall bind every future Holder of the same Security and the Holder of
every Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in
lieu thereof in respect of anything done or suffered to be done by the Trustee or the Company
in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Security.
	 
	 	e.	 	Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled to take any action hereunder with regard to
any particular Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the principal amount of

	 	f.	 	Except as set forth in paragraph (g) of this Section 1.4, the Company may set any day
as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of Outstanding Securities entitled
to give, make or take any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver
or other action provided or permitted by this Indenture to be given, made or taken by Holders
of Securities. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of

the relevant action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date;
provided, that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the
applicable Expiration Date (as defined below) by Holders of the requisite principal amount of
Outstanding Securities on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to
prevent the Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has
previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall
automatically and with no action by any Person be canceled and of no effect). Promptly after any
record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its own expense, shall cause notice
of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given
to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section
1.6.
	 
	 	g.	 	The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of determining the Holders of
Outstanding Securities entitled to join in the giving or making of (i) any Notice of Default,
(ii) any declaration of acceleration or rescission or annulment thereof referred to in
Section 5.2, (iii) any request to institute proceedings referred to in Section
5.7(b) or (iv) any direction referred to in Section 5.12. If any record date is
set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Securities on such record date, and
no other Holders, shall be entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction,
whether or not such Holders remain Holders after such record date; provided, that no such
action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date
by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding Securities on such record date.
Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record
date for any action for which a record date has previously been set pursuant to this paragraph
(whereupon the record date previously set shall automatically and with no action by any Person
be canceled and of no effect). Promptly after any record date is set pursuant to this
paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall cause notice of such record date, the
proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date to be given to the Company in
writing and to each Holder of Securities in the manner set forth in Section 1.6.
	 
	 	h.	 	With respect to any record date set pursuant to paragraph (f) or (g) of this Section
1.4, the party hereto that sets such record date may designate any day as the “Expiration
Date” and from time to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day;
provided, that no such change shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration
Date is given to the other party hereto in writing, and to each Holder of Securities in the
manner set forth in Section 1.6, on or prior to the existing Expiration Date. If an
Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date set pursuant to this
Section 1.4, the party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to have
initially designated the ninetieth (90th) day after such record date as the
Expiration Date with respect thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as
provided in this paragraph. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
no Expiration Date shall be later than the one hundred and eightieth (180th) day after

     5. Notices, Etc. to Trustee and Company.

Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver, Act of Holders, or other
document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or filed
with:

	 	a.	 	the Trustee by any Holder, any holder of Preferred Securities or the Company shall be
sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or
with the Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office, or
	 
	 	b.	 	the Company by the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities shall be

Page 14 of 46

Where this Indenture provides for notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently
given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first class, postage
prepaid, to each Holder affected by such event to the address of such Holder as it appears in the
Securities Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date,
prescribed for the giving of such notice. If, by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in
regular mail service or for any other reason, it shall be impossible or impracticable to mail
notice of any event to Holders when said notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision
of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Trustee
shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is
given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to
any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.
Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by the
Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be
the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be filed with the Trustee, but
such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon
such waiver.

and the Trustee, including any successor by operation of law. Except in connection with a
transaction involving the Company that is permitted under Article VIII and pursuant to
which the assignee agrees in writing to perform the Company’s obligations hereunder, the Company
shall not assign its obligations hereunder.

     9. Separability Clause.

If any provision in this Indenture or in the Securities shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable,
the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby, and there shall be deemed substituted for the provision at issue a
valid, legal and enforceable provision as similar as possible to the provision at issue.

     10. Benefits of Indenture.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other
than the parties hereto and their successors and assigns, the holders of Senior Debt, the Holders
of the Securities and, to the extent expressly provided in Sections 5.2, 5.8,
5.9, 5.11, 5.13, 9.2 and 10.7, the holders of Preferred
Securities, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

     11. Governing Law.

APPEALS THEREFROM) FOR LEGAL PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS INDENTURE.

     13. Non-Business Days.

If any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Security shall not be a
Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities)
payment of interest, premium or principal or other amounts in respect of such Security shall not be
made on such date, but shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day (and no interest shall

Page 15 of 46

amounts whose payment is so delayed for the period from and after such

II. 

    Security Forms

          1. Form of Security.

Any Security issued hereunder shall be in substantially the following form:

Summit Bank Corporation

Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Note due 2033

No.                      $ 12,380,000

Summit Bank Corporation, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Georgia
(hereinafter called the “Company,” which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to [                    ], or
registered assigns, the principal sum of Twelve Million Three Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars
($12,380,000) on September 30, 2033. The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal
sum from September 30, 2003, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has
been paid or duly provided for, quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on
March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of each year, commencing December 30, 2003, or if
any such day is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day (and
no interest shall accrue in respect of the amounts whose payment is so delayed for the period from
and after such Interest Payment Date until such next succeeding Business Day), except that, if such
Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the
immediately preceding Business Day, in each case, with the same force and effect as if made on the
Interest Payment Date, at the variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.10% per annum, together with
Additional Tax Sums, if any, as provided in Section 10.5 of the Indenture, until the
principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available for payment; provided, further,
that any overdue principal, premium or Additional Tax Sums and any overdue installment of interest
shall bear Additional Interest at the variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.10% per annum (to the
extent that the payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable), compounded quarterly, from
the dates such amounts are due until they are paid or made available for payment, and such interest
shall be payable on demand.

The amount of interest payable shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual
number of days elapsed in the relevant interest period. The amount of interest payable for any full
interest period shall be computed by dividing the applicable rate per annum by four. The interest
so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall, as
provided in the 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 installment. Any such interest not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith
cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person
in whose name this Security (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 Securities not less than ten (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 may be listed, and upon
such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right, at
any time and from time to time during the term of this Security, to defer the payment of interest
on this Security for a period of up to twenty (20) consecutive quarterly interest payment periods
(each such period, an “Extension Period”), during which Extension Period(s), no interest shall be
due and payable (except any Additional Tax Sums that may be due and payable). No Extension Period
shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date, and no Extension Period shall extend
beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of this
Security. No interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period (except any Additional
Tax Sums that may be due and payable), except at the end thereof, but each installment of interest
that would otherwise have been due and payable during such Extension Period shall bear Additional
Interest (to the extent payment of such interest would be legally enforceable) at the variable rate
equal to LIBOR plus 3.10% per annum, compounded quarterly, from the dates on which amounts would
have otherwise been due and payable until paid or made available for payment. At the end of any
such Extension Period, the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on this Security,
together with such Additional Interest. Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period, the
Company may further defer the payment of interest; provided, that (i) all such previous and further
extensions comprising such Extension Period do not exceed twenty (20) quarterly interest payment
periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall end on a date other

 

Page 16 of 46

than an Interest Payment Date and (iii)
no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of this Security. Upon
the termination of any such Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid
interest and any Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect
to begin a new Extension Period; provided, that (i) such Extension Period does not exceed twenty
(20) quarterly interest payment periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an
Interest Payment Date and (iii) no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the
principal of this Security. The Company shall give the Holder of this Security and the Trustee
written notice of its election to begin any such Extension Period at least one Business Day prior
to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date on which interest on this Security would be payable
but for such deferral or, so long as this Security is held by the Trust, at least one Business Day
prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which Distributions on the Preferred
Securities of Summit Bank Corporation Capital Trust I would be payable but for such deferral and
(ii) the date on which the Property Trustee of such Trust is required to give notice to any
securities exchange or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to holders of such
Preferred Securities of the record date for the payment of such Distributions.

During any such Extension Period, the Company shall not (i) declare or pay any dividends or
distributions on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any
of the Company’s capital stock or (ii) make any payment of principal of or any interest or premium
on or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities of the Company that rank pari passu in all
respects with or junior in interest to this Security (other than (a) repurchases, redemptions or
other acquisitions of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection with (1) any employment
contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more
employees, officers, directors or consultants, (2) a
dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan or (3) the issuance of capital stock of
the Company (or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration
in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, (b) as a
result of an exchange or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or any
capital stock of a Subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s capital
stock or of any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the
Company’s capital stock, (c) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s
capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the
security being converted or exchanged, (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any
Rights Plan, the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any Rights Plan, or the
redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto or (e) any dividend in the form of stock,
warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or the stock issuable upon exercise of
such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being
paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock).

Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on this Security shall be made 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. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest due at the
Maturity of this Security shall be made at the Place of Payment upon surrender of such Securities
to the Paying Agent, and payments of interest shall be made, subject to such surrender where
applicable, by wire transfer at such place and to such account at a banking institution in the
United States as may be designated in writing to the Paying Agent at least ten (10) Business Days
prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled thereto unless proper written transfer
instructions have not been received by the relevant record date, in which case such payments shall
be made by check mailed to the address of such Person as such address shall appear in the Security
Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the holder of this Security is the Property
Trustee, the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest (including any overdue
installment of interest and Additional Tax Sums, if any) on this Security will be made at such
place and to such account as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

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

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Trustee by manual
signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY]

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (the “Securities”)
issued under the Junior Subordinated Indenture, dated as of September 30, 2003 (the “Indenture”),
between the Company and The Bank of New York, as Trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee,” which
term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations
of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee, the holders of Senior Debt
and the Holders of the Securities, and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be,
authenticated and delivered.

 

Page 17 of 46

All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture or in the Amended and Restated
Trust Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2003 (as modified, amended or supplemented from time to
time, the “Trust Agreement”), relating to the Summit Bank Corporation Capital Trust I (the “Trust”)
among the Company, as Depositor, the Trustees named therein and the Holders from time to time of
the Trust Securities issued pursuant thereto, shall have the meanings assigned to them in the
Indenture or the Trust Agreement, as the case may be.

The Company may, on any Interest Payment Date, at its option, upon not less than thirty (30) days’
nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Holders of the Securities (unless a shorter
notice period shall be satisfactory to the Trustee) on or after September 30, 2008 and subject to
the terms and conditions of Article XI of the Indenture, redeem this Security in whole at
any time or in part from time to time at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred percent (100%) of
the principal amount hereof, together, in the case of any such redemption, with accrued interest,
including any Additional Interest, to but excluding the date fixed for redemption; provided, that
the Company shall have received the prior approval of the Federal Reserve if then required.

In addition, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Special Event, the Company may,
at its option, upon not less than thirty (30) days’ nor more than sixty (60) days’ written notice
to the Holders of the Securities (unless a shorter notice period shall be satisfactory to the
Trustee), redeem this Security, in whole but not in part, subject to the terms and conditions of
Article XI of the Indenture at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred percent (100%) of
the principal amount hereof, together, in the case of any such redemption, with accrued interest,
including any Additional Interest, to but excluding the date fixed for redemption; provided, that
the Company shall have received the prior approval of the Federal Reserve if then required.

In the event of redemption of this Security in part only, a new Security or Securities for the
unredeemed portion hereof will be issued in the name of the Holder hereof upon the cancellation
hereof. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be
redeemed shall be selected not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date by the
Trustee from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, by such method as the
Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a
portion of the principal amount of any Security.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the Company and the Trustee at
any time to enter into a supplemental indenture or indentures for the purpose of modifying in any
manner the rights and obligations of the Company and of the Holders of the Securities, with the
consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting Holders of specified percentages in
principal amount of the Securities, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities, 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 herefor or in lieu hereof,
whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.

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 any premium and interest, including any Additional Interest, on this Security at
the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

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

The Securities are issuable only in registered form without coupons in minimum denominations of
$100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided in the Indenture and
subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities are exchangeable for a like aggregate
principal amount of Securities and of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as
requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

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

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 Company and, by its acceptance of this Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder
of, and any Person that acquires a

 

Page 18 of 46

beneficial interest in, this Security agree that, for United
States federal, state and local tax purposes, it is intended that this Security constitute
indebtedness.

This Security shall be construed and enforced in accordance with and governed by the laws of the
State of New York, without reference to its conflict of laws provisions (other than Section 5-1401
of the General Obligations Law).

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

Regular Record Date for such interest, except that interest and any Additional Interest
payable on the Stated Maturity (or any date of principal repayment upon early maturity) of the
principal of a Security or on a Redemption Date shall be paid to the Person to whom principal
is paid. The initial payment of interest on any Security that is issued between a Regular
Record Date and the related Interest Payment Date shall be payable as provided in such
Security.
	 
	 	c.	 	Any interest on any Security that is due and payable, but is not timely paid or duly provided
for, on any Interest Payment Date for Securities (herein called “Defaulted Interest”) shall
forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the relevant Regular Record Date by
virtue of having been such Holder, and such Defaulted Interest may be paid by the Company, at
its election in each case, as provided in paragraph (i) or (ii) below:

	 	i.	 	The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the Persons in whose names
the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of
business on a Special Record Date for the payment
of such Defaulted Interest (a “Special Record Date”), which shall be fixed in the following manner.
At least thirty (30) days prior to the date of the proposed payment, the Company shall notify the
Trustee in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the
date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Company shall deposit with the Trustee an
amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted
Interest or shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for such deposit prior to the date
of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of the
Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date
for the payment of such Defaulted Interest, which shall be not more than fifteen (15) days and not
less than ten (10) days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than ten (10) days
after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly
notify the Company of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company,
shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date
therefor to be mailed, first class, postage prepaid, to each Holder of a Security at the address of
such Holder as it appears in the Securities Register not less than ten (10) days prior to such
Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special
Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in
whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered on such
Special Record Date; or
	 
	 	ii.	 	The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities may be
listed and, upon such notice as may be required by such exchange (or by the Trustee if the
Securities are not listed), if, after notice given by the Company to the Trustee of the
proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such payment shall be deemed practicable by the
Trustee.

	 	d.	 	Payments of interest on the Securities shall include interest accrued to but excluding the
respective Interest Payment Dates. Interest payments for the Securities shall be computed and
paid on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed in the relevant
interest period.
	 
	 	e.	 	Payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities shall be made 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. Payments of principal, premium, if any, and
interest due at the Maturity of such Securities shall be made at the Place of Payment upon
surrender of such Securities to the Paying Agent and payments of interest shall be made
subject to such surrender where applicable, by wire transfer at such place and to such account
at a banking institution in the United States as may be designated in writing to the Paying
Agent at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date for payment by the Person entitled
thereto unless proper written transfer instructions have not been received by the relevant
record date, in which case such payments shall be made

 

 

Page 21 of 46

	 	 	 	by check mailed to the address of such
Person as such address shall appear in the Security Register. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
so long as the holder of this Security is the Property Trustee, the payment of the principal
of (and premium if any) and interest (including any overdue installment of interest and
Additional Tax Sums, if any) on this Security will be made at such place and to such account
as may be designated by the Property Trustee.
	 
	 	f.	 	Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.1, each Security delivered
under this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Security
shall carry the rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by
such other Security.

	 	2.	 	Denominations.
	 
	 	The Securities shall be in registered form without coupons and shall be issuable in minimum
denominations of $100,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in
excess thereof.

	 
	 	3.	 	Execution, Authentication, Delivery and Dating.

	 	a.	 	At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the
Company may deliver Securities in an aggregate principal amount (including all then
Outstanding Securities) not in excess of Twelve Million Three Hundred Eighty Thousand Dollars
($12,380,000) executed by the Company to the Trustee for authentication, together with a
Company Order for the authentication and delivery of such Securities, and the Trustee in
accordance with the Company Order shall authenticate and deliver such Securities. In
authenticating such Securities, and accepting the additional responsibilities under this
Indenture in relation to such Securities, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall
be fully protected in relying upon:

	 	i.	 	a copy of any Board Resolution relating thereto; and
	 
	 	ii.	 	an Opinion of Counsel stating that such Securities, when authenticated and delivered by the
Trustee and issued by the Company in the manner and subject to any conditions specified in
such Opinion of Counsel, will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company,
subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar
laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity
principles.

	 	b.	 	The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Company by its Chairman of the Board, its
Vice Chairman of the Board, its Chief Executive Officer, its President or one of its Vice
Presidents, under its corporate seal reproduced or impressed thereon and attested by its
Secretary or one of its Assistant Secretaries. The signature of any of these officers on the
Securities may be manual or facsimile. Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures
of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Company shall bind the Company,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to
the authentication and delivery of such Securities or did not hold such offices at the date of
such Securities.
	 
	 	c.	 	No Security shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or obligatory
for any purpose, unless there appears on such Security a certificate of authentication
substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by the manual signature
of one of its authorized officers, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive
evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered
hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Security shall have been authenticated and
delivered hereunder but never issued and sold by the Company, and the Company shall deliver
such Security to the Trustee for cancellation as provided in Section 3.8, for all
purposes of this Indenture such Security shall be deemed never to have been authenticated and
delivered hereunder and shall never be entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.
	 
	 	d.	 	Each Security shall be dated the date of its authentication.

	 	4.	 	Global Securities.

	 	a.	 	Upon the election of the Holder after the Original Issue Date, which election need not be in
writing, the Securities owned by such Holder shall be issued in the form of one or more Global
Securities registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee. Each Global Security
issued under this Indenture shall be registered in the name of the Depositary designated by
the Company for such Global Security or a nominee thereof and delivered to such Depositary or
a nominee thereof or custodian therefor, and each such Global Security shall constitute a single Security for all purposes of this
Indenture.
	 
	 	b.	 	Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, no Global Security may be exchanged in
whole or in part for Securities registered, and no transfer of a Global Security in whole or
in part may be registered, in the name of any Person other than the Depositary for such Global
Security or a nominee thereof unless (i) such Depositary advises the Trustee and the Company
in writing that such Depositary is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its
responsibilities as Depositary with respect to such Global Security, and no qualified
successor is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days of receipt by the Company of
such notice, (ii) such Depositary ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange
Act and no successor is appointed by the Company within ninety (90) days after obtaining
knowledge of such event, (iii) the Company executes and delivers to the Trustee a Company
Order stating that the Company elects to terminate the book-entry system through the
Depositary or (iv) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon the
occurrence of any event specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the Trustee shall
notify the Depositary and instruct the Depositary to notify all owners of beneficial interests
in such Global Security of the occurrence of such event and of the availability of Securities
to such owners of beneficial interests requesting the same. Upon the issuance of such
Securities and the registration in the Securities Register of such Securities in the names of
the Holders of the beneficial interests therein, the Trustees shall recognize such holders of
beneficial interests as Holders.
	 
	 	c.	 	If any Global Security is to be exchanged for other Securities or canceled in part, or if
another Security is to be exchanged in whole or in part for a beneficial interest in any
Global Security, then either (i) such Global Security shall be so surrendered

 

Page 22 of 46

	 	 	 	for exchange or
cancellation as provided in this Article III or (ii) the principal amount thereof
shall be reduced or increased by an amount equal to the portion thereof to be so exchanged or
canceled, or equal to the principal amount of such other Security to be so exchanged for a
beneficial interest therein, as the case may be, by means of an appropriate adjustment made on
the records of the Securities Registrar, whereupon the Trustee, in accordance with the
Applicable Depository Procedures, shall instruct the Depositary or its authorized
representative to make a corresponding adjustment to its records. Upon any such surrender or
adjustment of a Global Security by the Depositary, accompanied by registration instructions,
the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver any Securities
issuable in exchange for
such Global Security (or any portion thereof) in accordance with the instructions of the
Depositary. The Trustee shall not be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, such instructions.
	 
	 	d.	 	Every Security authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange
for or in lieu of, a Global Security or any portion thereof shall be authenticated and
delivered in the form of, and shall be, a Global Security, unless such Security is registered
in the name of a Person other than the Depositary for such Global Security or a nominee
thereof.
	 
	 	e.	 	Securities distributed to holders of Book-Entry Preferred Securities (as defined in the
applicable Trust Agreement) upon the dissolution of the Trust shall be distributed in the form
of one or more Global Securities registered in the name of a Depositary or its nominee, and
deposited with the Securities Registrar, as custodian for such Depositary, or with such
Depositary, for credit by the Depositary to the respective accounts of the beneficial owners
of the Securities represented thereby (or such other accounts as they may direct). Securities
distributed to holders of Preferred Securities other than Book-Entry Preferred Securities upon
the dissolution of the Trust shall not be issued in the form of a Global Security or any other
form intended to facilitate book-entry trading in beneficial interests in such Securities.
	 
	 	f.	 	The Depositary or its nominee, as the registered owner of a Global Security, shall be the
Holder of such Global Security for all purposes under this Indenture and the Securities, and
owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall hold such interests pursuant to the
Applicable Depository Procedures. Accordingly, any such owner’s beneficial interest in a
Global Security shall be shown only on, and the transfer of such interest shall be effected
only through, records maintained by the Depositary or its nominee or its Depositary
Participants. The Securities Registrar and the Trustee shall be entitled to deal with the
Depositary for all purposes of this Indenture relating to a Global Security (including the
payment of principal and interest thereon and the giving of instructions or directions by
owners of beneficial interests therein and the giving of notices) as the sole Holder of the
Security and shall have no obligations to the owners of beneficial interests therein. Neither
the Trustee nor the Securities Registrar shall have any liability in respect of any transfers
effected by the Depositary.
	 
	 	g.	 	The rights of owners of beneficial interests in a Global Security shall be exercised only
through the Depositary and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between
such owners and the Depositary and/or its Depositary Participants.
	 
	 	h.	 	No holder of any beneficial interest in any Global Security held on its behalf by a
Depositary shall have any rights under this Indenture with respect to such Global Security,
and such Depositary may be treated by the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or
the Trustee as the owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. None of the
Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee will have any responsibility
or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of
beneficial ownership interests of a Global Security or maintaining, supervising or reviewing
any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
nothing herein shall prevent the Company, the Trustee or any agent of the Company or the
Trustee from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization
furnished by a Depositary or impair, as between a Depositary and such holders of beneficial
interests, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of the
Depositary (or its nominee) as Holder of any Security.

	 	5.	 	Registration, Transfer and Exchange Generally.

	 	a.	 	The Trustee shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office a register (the “Securities
Register”) in which the registrar and transfer agent with respect to the Securities (the
“Securities Registrar”), subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, shall
provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers and exchanges of Securities. The
Trustee shall at all times also be the Securities Registrar. The provisions of Article
VI shall apply to the Trustee in its role as Securities Registrar.
	 
	 	b.	 	Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the offices or agencies of the
Company designated for that purpose the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more
new Securities of any authorized denominations of like tenor and aggregate principal amount.
	 
	 	c.	 	At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any
authorized denominations, of like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the
Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so
surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and
deliver, the Securities that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.
	 
	 	d.	 	All Securities issued upon any transfer or exchange of Securities shall be the valid
obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under
this Indenture, as the Securities surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.
	 
	 	e.	 	Every Security presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the
Company or the Trustee) be duly
endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company
and the Securities Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing.
	 
	 	f.	 	No service charge shall be made to a Holder for any transfer or exchange of Securities, but
the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Securities.
	 
	 	g.	 	Neither the Company nor the Trustee shall be required pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 3.5 (g) to issue, register the

 

Page 23 of 46

	 	 	 	transfer of or exchange any Security during a
period beginning at the opening of business fifteen (15) days before the day of selection for
redemption of Securities pursuant to Article XI and ending at the close of business on
the day of mailing of the notice of redemption or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange
any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except, in the case of any such
Security to be redeemed in part, any portion thereof not to be redeemed.
	 
	 	h.	 	The Company shall designate an office or offices or agency or agencies where Securities may
be surrendered for registration or transfer or exchange. The Company initially designates the
Corporate Trust Office as its office and agency for such purposes. The Company shall give
prompt written notice to the Trustee and to the Holders of any change in the location of any
such office or agency.

	 	6.	 	Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Securities.

	 	a.	 	If any mutilated Security is surrendered to the Trustee together with such security or
indemnity as may be required by the Company or the Trustee to save each of them harmless, the
Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a
new Security of like tenor and aggregate principal amount and bearing a number not
contemporaneously outstanding.
	 
	 	b.	 	If there shall be delivered to the Company and to the Trustee (i) evidence to their
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Security and (ii) such security or
indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of
notice to the Company or the Trustee that such Security has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Company shall execute and upon its written request the Trustee shall
authenticate and deliver, in lieu of any such destroyed, lost or stolen Security, a new
Security of like tenor and aggregate principal amount as such destroyed, lost or stolen
Security, and bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding.
	 
	 	c.	 	If any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become
due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay
such Security.
	 
	 	d.	 	Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section 3.6, the Company may require
the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the
Trustee) connected therewith.
	 
	 	e.	 	Every new Security issued pursuant to this Section 3.6 in lieu of any mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Security shall constitute an original additional contractual
obligation of the Company, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security
shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this
Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Securities duly issued hereunder.
	 
	 	f.	 	The provisions of this Section 3.6 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent
lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,
destroyed, lost or stolen Securities.

	 	7.	 	Persons Deemed Owners.
	 
	 	The Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall treat the Person in
whose name any Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving
payment of principal of and any interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever,
and neither the Company, the Trustee nor any agent of the Company or the Trustee shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.

	 
	 	8.	 	Cancellation.
	 
	 	All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to
any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee, and any such Securities and
Securities surrendered directly to the Trustee for any such purpose shall be promptly canceled by
it. The Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously
authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner whatsoever,
and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. No Securities shall be
authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section
3.8, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities shall be disposed
of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary practices and the Trustee shall deliver to the
Company a certificate of such disposition.

	 	9.	 	Deferrals of Interest Payment Dates.

	 	a.	 	So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the
right, at any time and from time to time during the term of the Security, to defer the payment
of interest on the Securities for a period of up to twenty (20) consecutive quarterly interest
payment periods (each such period, an “Extension Period"), during which Extension Period(s),
the Company shall have the right to make no payments or partial payments of interest on any
Interest Payment Date (except any Additional Tax Sums that otherwise may be due and payable).
No Extension Period shall end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date and no Extension
Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities. No interest
shall be due and payable during an Extension Period, except at the end thereof, but each
installment of interest that would otherwise have been due and payable during such Extension
Period shall bear Additional Interest (to the extent payment of such interest would be legally
enforceable) at the variable rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.10% per annum compounded quarterly,
from the dates on which amounts would have otherwise been due and payable until paid or until
funds for the payment thereof have been made available for payment. At the end of any such
Extension Period, the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid on the Securities
together with such Additional Interest. Prior to the termination of any such Extension Period,
the Company may extend such Extension Period and further defer the payment of interest;
provided, that (i) all such previous and further extensions comprising such Extension Period
do not exceed twenty

 

Page 24 of 46

	 		 	(20) quarterly interest payment periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall
end on a date other than an Interest Payment Date and (iii) no Extension Period shall extend
beyond the Stated Maturity of the principal of the Securities. Upon the termination of any
such Extension Period and upon the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest and any
Additional Interest then due on any Interest Payment Date, the Company may elect to begin a
new Extension Period; provided, that (i) such Extension Period does not exceed twenty (20)
quarterly interest payment periods, (ii) no Extension Period shall end on a date other than an
Interest Payment Date and (iii) no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Stated Maturity of
the principal of the Securities. The Company shall give the Holders of the Securities and the
Trustee written notice of its election to begin any such Extension Period at least one
Business Day prior to the next succeeding Interest Payment Date on which interest on the
Securities would be payable but for such deferral or, so long as any Securities are held by
the Trust, at least one Business Day prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on
which Distributions on the Preferred Securities of such Trust
would be payable but for such deferral and (ii) the date on which the Property Trustee of such
Trust is required to give notice to any securities exchange or other applicable self-regulatory
organization or to holders of such Preferred Securities of the record date for the payment of such
Distributions.
	 
	 	b.	 	In connection with any such Extension Period, the Company shall be subject to the
restrictions set forth in Section 10.6(a).

	 	10.	 	Right of Set-Off.
	 
	 	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company shall have the right to set off any
payment it is otherwise required to make in respect of any Security to the extent the Company has
theretofore made, or is concurrently on the date of such payment making, a payment under the
Guarantee Agreement relating to such Security or to a holder of Preferred Securities pursuant to an
action undertaken under Section 5.8 of this Indenture.

	 
	 	11.	 	Agreed Tax Treatment.
	 
	 	Each Security issued hereunder shall provide that the Company and, by its acceptance or acquisition
of a Security or a beneficial interest therein, the Holder of, and any Person that acquires a
direct or indirect beneficial interest in, such Security, intend and agree to treat such Security
as indebtedness of the Company for United States Federal, state and local tax purposes and to treat
the Preferred Securities (including but not limited to all payments and proceeds with respect to
the Preferred Securities) as an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Securities (and
payments and proceeds therefrom, respectively) for United States Federal, state and local tax
purposes. The provisions of this Indenture shall be interpreted to further this intention and
agreement of the parties.

	 
	 	12.	 	CUSIP Numbers.

The Company in issuing the Securities may use “CUSIP” numbers (if then generally in use), and, if
so, the Trustee shall use “CUSIP” numbers in notices of redemption and other similar or related
materials as a convenience to Holders; provided, that any such notice or other materials may state
that no representation is made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the
Securities or as contained in any notice of redemption or other materials and that reliance may be
placed only on the other identification numbers printed on the Securities, and any such redemption
shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers.

IV.

Satisfaction and Discharge

	 	1.	 	Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.
	 
	 	This Indenture shall, upon Company Request, cease to be of further effect (except as to any
surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided
for and as otherwise provided in this Section 4.1) and the Trustee, on demand of and at the
expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge
of this Indenture, when

	 	a.	 	either
	 
	 		 	(i) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (A) Securities that have
been mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid as provided in
Section 3.6 and (B) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in
trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the Company or
discharged from such trust as provided in Section 10.2) have been delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation; or
	 
	 		 	(ii) all such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation

	 	A.	 	have become due and payable, or

 

Page 25 of 46

	 	B.	 	will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year of the date of deposit,
or
	 
	 	C.	 	are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the
Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense,
of the Company,

	 	 	and the Company, in the case of subclause (ii)(A), (B) or (C) above, has deposited or caused to be
deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for such purpose (x) an amount in the currency
or currencies in which the Securities are payable, (y) Government Obligations which through the
scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will
provide, not later than the due date of any payment, money in an amount or (z) a combination
thereof, in each case sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay
and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee
for cancellation, for principal and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) to
the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities that have become due and payable) or to the
Stated
Maturity (or any date of principal repayment upon early maturity) or Redemption Date, as the case
may be;
	 
	 	b.	 	the Company has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Company;
and
	 
	 	c.	 	the Company has delivered to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel
each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction
and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with.

	 	Notwithstanding the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, the obligations of the Company to
the Trustee under Section 6.6, the obligations of the Company to any Authenticating Agent
under Section 6.11 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
subclause (a)(ii) of this Section 4.1, the obligations of the Trustee under Section
4.2 and Section 10.2(e) shall survive.

	 
	 	2.	 	Application of Trust Money.

Subject to the provisions Section 10.2(e), all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to
Section 4.1 shall be held in trust and applied by the Trustee, in accordance with the
provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment in accordance with Section
3.1, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Company acting as its own
Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal and
any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) for the payment of which such money or
obligations have been deposited with or received by the Trustee. Moneys held by the Trustee under
this Section 4.2 shall not be subject to the claims of holders of Senior Debt under
Article XII.

V.

Remedies

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

	 	a.	 	default in the payment of any interest upon any Security, including any Additional Interest
in respect thereof, when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of such default for a

	 	b.	 	default in the payment of the principal of or any premium on any Security at its Maturity; or
	 
	 	c.	 	default in the performance, or breach, of any covenant or warranty of the Company in this
Indenture and continuance of such default or breach for a period of thirty (30) days after
there has been given, by registered or certified mail, to the Company by the Trustee or to the
Company and the Trustee by the Holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities a written notice specifying such default or
breach and requiring it to be remedied and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default”
hereunder;
	 
	 	d.	 	the entry by a court having jurisdiction in the premises of a decree or order adjudging the
Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking
reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Company under
any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar law,
or appointing a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or other
similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or ordering the
winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order for
relief or any such other decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of sixty (60)
consecutive days; or
	 
	 	e.	 	the institution by the Company of proceedings to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or
the consent by the Company to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against
it, or the filing by the Company of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or
relief under any applicable Federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or 

 

Page 26 of 46

	 	 	 	other similar law, or the consent by it to the filing of such petition or to the appointment of or
taking possession by a custodian, receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator or
other similar official of the Company or of any substantial part of its property, or the
making by it of an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the admission by it in writing
of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due and its willingness to be
adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the taking of corporate action by the Company in
furtherance of any such action.
	 
	 	f.	 	the Trust shall have voluntarily or involuntarily liquidated, dissolved, wound-up its
business or otherwise terminated its existence, except in connection with (1) the distribution
of the Securities to holders of the Preferred Securities in liquidation of their interests in
the Trust, (2) the redemption of all of the outstanding Preferred Securities or (3) certain
mergers, consolidations or amalgamations, each as and to the extent permitted by the Trust Agreement.

	 	2.	 	Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.

	 	a.	 	If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, then and in every such case the Trustee or
the Holders of not less than twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities may declare the principal amount of all the Securities to be due and
payable immediately, by a notice in writing to the Company (and to the Trustee if given by
Holders), provided, that if, upon an Event of Default, the Trustee or the Holders of not less
than twenty five percent (25%) in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities fail to
declare the principal of all the Outstanding Securities to be immediately due and payable, the
holders of at least twenty five percent (25%) in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in
the Trust Agreement) of the Preferred Securities then outstanding shall have the right to make
such declaration by a notice in writing to the Property Trustee, the Company and the Trustee;
and upon any such declaration the principal amount of and the accrued interest (including any
Additional Interest) on all the Securities shall become immediately due and payable.
	 
	 	b.	 	At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to Securities has been made
and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee
as hereinafter provided in this Article V, the Holders of a majority in aggregate
principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Indenture Trustee, or
the Holders of a majority in aggregate liquidation amount of the Preferred Securities, by
written notice to the Property Trustee, the Company and the Trustee, may rescind and annul
such declaration and its consequences if:

	 	i.	 	the Company has paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay:

	 	A.	 	all overdue installments of interest on all Securities,
	 
	 	B.	 	any accrued Additional Interest on all Securities,
	 
	 	C.	 	the principal of and any premium on any Securities that have become due otherwise than by
such declaration of acceleration and interest (including any Additional Interest) thereon at
the rate borne by the Securities, and
	 
	 	D.	 	all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses,
disbursements and advances of the Trustee, the Property Trustee and their agents and counsel;
and

	 	ii.	 	all Events of Default with respect to Securities, other than the non-payment of the principal
of Securities that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section
5.13;

	 	provided, that if the Holders of such Securities fail to annul such declaration and waive such
default, the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the
Trust Agreement) of the Preferred Securities then outstanding shall also have the right to rescind
and annul such declaration and its consequences by written notice to the Property Trustee, the
Company and the Trustee, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)
of this Section 5.2. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any
right consequent thereon.

	 
	 	3.	 	Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee.

	 	a.	 	The Company covenants that if:

	 	i.	 	default is made in the payment of any installment of interest (including any Additional
Interest) on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default
continues for a period of thirty (30) days, or
	 
	 	ii.	 	default is made in the payment of the principal of and any premium on any Security at the
Maturity thereof,

	 	 	 	the Company will, upon demand of the Trustee, pay to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of
such Securities, the whole amount then due and payable on such Securities for principal and any
premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) and, in addition thereto, all amounts
owing the Trustee under Section 6.6.
	 
	 	b.	 	If the Company fails to pay such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Trustee, in its own
name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute a judicial proceeding for the
collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or
final decree, and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon such
Securities and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by
law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Securities, wherever
situated.
	 
	 	c.	 	If an Event of Default with respect to Securities occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may
in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders of
Securities by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual
to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant
or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to
enforce any other proper remedy.

	 	4.	 	Trustee May File Proofs of Claim.

 

Page 27 of 46

	 	 	 	In case of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement,
adjustment, composition or similar judicial proceeding relative to the Company (or any other
obligor upon the Securities), its property or its creditors, the Trustee shall be entitled and
empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise, to take any and all actions authorized
hereunder in order to have claims of the Holders and the Trustee allowed in any such proceeding. In
particular, the Trustee shall be authorized to collect and receive any moneys or other property
payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; 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 Trustee and, in the
event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Holders, to
first pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements
and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts owing the Trustee, any
predecessor Trustee and other Persons under Section 6.6.
	 
	 	5.	 	Trustee May Enforce Claim Without Possession of Securities.
	 
	 	 	 	All rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Securities may be prosecuted and
enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Securities or the production thereof
in any proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be
brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, subject
to Article XII and after provision for the payment of all the amounts owing the Trustee,
any predecessor Trustee and other Persons under Section 6.6, be for the ratable benefit of
the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.
	 
	 	6.	 	Application of Money Collected.
	 
	 	 	 	Any money or property collected or to be applied by the Trustee with respect to the Securities
pursuant to this Article V shall be applied in the following order, at the date or dates
fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such money or property on account of
principal or any premium or interest (including any Additional Interest), upon presentation of the
Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender
thereof if fully paid:
	 
	 	 	 	FIRST: To the payment of all amounts due the Trustee, any predecessor Trustee and other Persons
under Section 6.6;
	 
	 	 	 	SECOND: To the payment of all Senior Debt of the Company if and to the extent required by
Article XII.
	 
	 	 	 	THIRD: Subject to Article XII, to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the
Securities for principal and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) in
respect of which or for the benefit of which such money has been collected, ratably, without
preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on the Securities for
principal and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest), respectively; and
	 
	 	 	 	FOURTH: The balance, if any, to the Person or Persons entitled thereto.

	 
	 	7.	 	Limitation on Suits.

	 
	 	Subject to Section 5.8, no Holder of any Securities shall have any right to institute any
proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture or for the appointment of a
custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator (or other similar official) or for
any other remedy hereunder, unless:

	 	a.	 	such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of
Default with respect to the Securities;
	 
	 	b.	 	the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities shall have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect
of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;
	 
	 	c.	 	such Holder or Holders have offered to the Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs,
expenses and liabilities to be incurred in compliance with such request;
	 
	 	d.	 	the Trustee after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity has failed to
institute any such proceeding for sixty (60) days; and
	 
	 	e.	 	no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Trustee during such
sixty (60)-day period by the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Outstanding Securities;

	 	it being understood and intended that no one or more of such Holders shall have any right in any
manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing itself of, any provision of this Indenture to affect,
disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Securities, or to obtain or to seek to
obtain priority or preference over any other of such Holders or to enforce any right under this
Indenture, except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of all such
Holders.

 

Page 28 of 46

	 	8.	 	Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest; Direct Action by
Holders of Preferred Securities.
	 
	 	 	 	Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, the Holder of any Security shall have the
right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and any premium
on such Security at its Maturity and payment of interest (including any Additional Interest) on
such Security when due and payable and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment,
and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder. Any registered holder of
the Preferred Securities shall have the right, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described
in Section 5.1(a) or Section 5.1(b), to institute a suit directly against the
Company for enforcement of payment to such holder of principal of and any premium and interest
(including any Additional Interest) on the Securities having a principal amount equal to the
aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the Trust Agreement) of the Preferred Securities held
by such holder.
	 
	 	9.	 	Restoration of Rights and Remedies.
	 
	 	 	 	If the Trustee, any Holder or any holder of Preferred Securities has instituted any proceeding to
enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such proceeding has been discontinued or
abandoned for any reason, or has been determined adversely to the Trustee, such Holder or such
holder of Preferred Securities, then and in every such case the Company, the Trustee, such Holders
and such holder of Preferred Securities shall, subject to any determination in such proceeding, be
restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights
and remedies of the Trustee, such Holder and such holder of Preferred Securities shall continue as
though no such proceeding had been instituted.
	 
	 	10.	 	Rights and Remedies Cumulative.
	 
	 	 	 	Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.6(f), no right or remedy herein conferred upon or
reserved to the Trustee or the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy,
and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to
every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or
otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not
prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.
	 
	 	11.	 	Delay or Omission Not Waiver.
	 
	 	 	 	No delay or omission of the Trustee, any Holder of any Securities or any holder of any Preferred
Security to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such
right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence

	 	 	 	therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Trustee or to the
Holders and the right and remedy given to the holders of Preferred Securities by Section
5.8 may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the
Trustee, the Holders or the holders of Preferred Securities, as the case may be.
	 	12.	 	Control by Holders.
	 
	 	 	 	The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities
shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any
remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee;
provided, that:

	 	a.	 	such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture,
	 
	 	b.	 	the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee that is not inconsistent
with such direction, and
	 
	 	c.	 	subject to the provisions of Section 6.2, the Trustee shall have the right to decline
to follow such direction if a Responsible Officer or Officers of the Trustee shall, in good
faith, reasonably determine that the proceeding so directed would be unjustly prejudicial to
the Holders not joining in any such direction or would involve the Trustee in personal
liability.

	 	13.	 	Waiver of Past Defaults.

	 	a.	 	The Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities and the holders of a majority in aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the
Trust Agreement) of the Preferred Securities may waive any past Event of Default hereunder and
its consequences except an Event of Default:

	 	i.	 	in the payment of the principal of or any premium or interest (including any Additional
Interest) on any Security (unless such Event of Default has been cured and the Company has
paid to or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay all installments of interest
(including any Additional Interest) due and past due and all principal of and any premium on
all Securities due otherwise than by acceleration), or
	 
	 	ii.	 	in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that under Article IX cannot be modified
or amended without the consent of each Holder of any Outstanding Security.

	 	b.	 	Any such waiver shall be deemed to be on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities or, in
the case of a waiver by holders of Preferred Securities issued by such Trust, by all holders
of Preferred Securities.
	 
	 	c.	 	Upon any such waiver, such Event of Default shall cease to exist and any Event of Default
arising therefrom shall be 

 

Page 29 of 46

	 	 	 	deemed to have been cured for every purpose of this Indenture; but
no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right
consequent thereon.

	 	14.	 	Undertaking for Costs.
	 
	 	 	 	All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his or her acceptance
thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit
for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee
for any action taken or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of
an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess
reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, against any party litigant in
such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.14 shall not apply to any suit
instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group of Holders, holding in
the aggregate more than ten percent (10%) in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding
Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for the enforcement of the payment of the
principal of or any premium on the Security after the Stated Maturity or any interest (including
any Additional Interest) on any Security after it is due and payable.
	 
	 	15.	 	Waiver of Usury, Stay or Extension Laws.

The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time
insist upon, or plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any
usury, stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, which may
affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it
may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants
that it will not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee,
but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been
enacted.

VI.

The Trustee

	 	1.	 	Corporate Trustee Required.
	 
	 	 	 	There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder with respect to the Securities. The Trustee shall
be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States or of any state
thereof, authorized to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital
and surplus of at least $50,000,000, subject to supervision or examination by Federal or state
authority and having an office within the United States. If such corporation publishes reports of
condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of such supervising or
examining authority, then, for the purposes of this Section 6.1, the combined capital and
surplus of such corporation shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in
its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be
eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.1, it shall resign immediately
in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VI.
	 
	 	2.	 	Certain Duties and Responsibilities.
	 
	 	 	 	Except during the continuance of an Event of Default:

	 	i.	 	the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set
forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this
Indenture against the Trustee; and
	 
	 	ii.	 	in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth
of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates or
opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture;
provided, that in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof
are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a duty to
examine the same to determine whether or not they substantially conform on their face to the
requirements of this Indenture.

	 	a.	 	If an Event of Default known to the Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
shall, prior to the receipt of directions, if any, from the Holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, exercise such of the rights and
powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in its
exercise, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of
such person’s own affairs.
	 
	 	b.	 	Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of
any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it 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 Indenture relating to the conduct
or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall be subject to the
provisions of this Section 6.2. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Trustee has
duties and liabilities relating to the Holders, the Trustee shall not be liable to any Holder for
the Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Indenture.

 

Page 30 of 46

	 	 	 	The provisions of this
Indenture, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Trustee otherwise
existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Company and the Holders to replace such other
duties and liabilities of the Trustee.
	 
	 	c.	 	No provisions of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability with
respect to matters that are within the authority of the Trustee under this Indenture for its
own negligent action, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct, except that:

	 	i.	 	the Trustee shall not be liable for any error or judgment made in good faith by an authorized
officer of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in
ascertaining the pertinent facts;
	 
	 	ii.	 	the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any action taken or omitted to be taken by it
in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities relating to the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee under this
Indenture; and
	 
	 	iii.	 	the Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder
except as otherwise agreed with the Company and money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder
need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

	 	3.	 	Notice of Defaults.
	 
	 	 	 	Within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of any default actually known to the Trustee, the
Trustee shall give the Holders notice of such default unless such default shall have been cured or
waived; provided, that except in the case of a default in the payment of the principal of or any
premium or interest on any Securities, the Trustee shall be fully protected in withholding the
notice if and so long as the board of directors, the executive committee or a trust committee of
directors and/or Responsible Officers of the Trustee in good faith determines that withholding the
notice is in the interest of holders of Securities; and provided, that in the case of any default
of the character specified in Section 5.1(c), no such notice to Holders shall be given
until at least thirty (30) days after the occurrence thereof. For the purpose of this Section
6.3, the term “default” means any event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both
would become, an Event of Default.
	 
	 	4.	 	Certain Rights of Trustee.
	 
	 	Subject
to the provisions of Section 6.2:

	 	a.	 	the Trustee may conclusively rely and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from
acting in good faith and in accordance with the terms hereof upon any resolution, certificate,
statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond,
debenture, note or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed or presented by the proper party or parties;
	 
	 	b.	 	if (i) in performing its duties under this Indenture the Trustee is required to decide
between alternative courses of action, (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this
Indenture the Trustee finds ambiguous or inconsistent with any other provisions contained
herein or (iii) the Trustee is unsure of the application of any provision of this Indenture,
then, except as to any matter as to which the Holders are entitled to decide under the terms
of this Indenture, the Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Company requesting the Company’s
written instruction as to the course of action to be taken and the Trustee shall take such
action, or refrain from taking such action, as the Trustee shall be instructed in writing to
take, or to refrain from taking, by the Company; provided, that if the Trustee does not
receive such instructions from the Company within ten Business Days after it has delivered
such notice or such reasonably shorter period of time set forth in such notice the Trustee
may, but shall be under no duty to, take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as
the Trustee shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Holders, in which event the
Trustee shall have no liability except for its own negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct;
	 
	 	c.	 	any request or direction of the Company shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request
or Company Order and any resolution of the Board of Directors may be sufficiently evidenced by
a Board Resolution;
	 
	 	d.	 	the Trustee may consult with counsel (which counsel may be counsel to the Trustee, the
Company or any of its Affiliates, and may include any of its employees) and the advice of such
counsel or any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in
respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance
thereon;
	 
	 	e.	 	the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it
by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders pursuant to this
Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity
reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in
compliance with such request or direction, including reasonable advances as may be requested by the
Trustee;
	 
	 	f.	 	the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in
any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request,
direction, consent, order, bond, indenture, note or other paper or document, but the Trustee
in its discretion may make such inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may
see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such inquiry or investigation, it shall
be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Company, personally or by agent
or attorney;
	 
	 	g.	 	the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder
either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees and the Trustee
shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any such agent,
attorney, custodian or nominee appointed with due care by it hereunder;

 

Page 31 of 46

	 	h.	 	whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable to
receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action
with respect to enforcing any remedy or right hereunder, the Trustees (i) may request
instructions from the Holders (which instructions may only be given by the Holders of the same
aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities as would be entitled to direct the
Trustee under this Indenture in respect of such remedy, right or action), (ii) may refrain
from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such action until such instructions are received
and (iii) shall be protected in acting in accordance with such instructions;
	 
	 	i.	 	except as otherwise expressly provided by this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be under any
obligation to take any action that is discretionary under the provisions of this Indenture;
	 
	 	j.	 	without prejudice to any other rights available to the Trustee under applicable law, when the
Trustee incurs expenses or renders services in connection with any bankruptcy, insolvency or
other proceeding referred to in clauses (d) or (e) of the definition of Event of Default, such
expenses (including legal fees and expenses of its agents and counsel) and the compensation
for such services are intended to constitute expenses of administration under any bankruptcy
laws or law relating to creditors rights generally;
	 
	 	k.	 	whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it desirable that a
matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder,
the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of
bad faith on its part, conclusively rely upon an
Officers’ Certificate addressing such matter, which, upon receipt of such request, shall be
promptly delivered by the Company;
	 
	 	l.	 	the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default unless either (i) a
Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge or (ii) the Trustee shall have
received notice thereof from the Company or a Holder; and
	 
	 	m.	 	in the event that the Trustee is also acting as Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent or
Securities Registrar hereunder, the rights and protections afforded to the Trustee pursuant to
this Article VI shall also be afforded such Paying Agent, Authenticating Agent, or
Securities Registrar.

	 	5.	 	May Hold Securities.
	 
	 	The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any Paying Agent, any Securities Registrar or any other
agent of the Company, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of
Securities and may otherwise deal with the Company with the same rights it would have if it were
not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Securities Registrar
or such other agent.

	 
	 	6.	 	Compensation; Reimbursement; Indemnity.

	 	a.	 	The Company agrees

	 	i.	 	to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by
it hereunder in such amounts as the Company and the Trustee shall agree 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);
	 
	 	ii.	 	to reimburse the Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Indenture
(including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and
counsel), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; and
	 
	 	iii.	 	to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to indemnify the Trustee and its
Affiliates, and their officers, directors, shareholders, agents, representatives and employees

	 	d.	 	If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall
occur in the office of Trustee for any reason, at a time when no Event of Default shall have
occurred and be continuing, the Company, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a
successor Trustee, and such successor Trustee and the retiring Trustee shall comply with the
applicable requirements of Section 6.8. If the Trustee shall resign, be removed
or become incapable of acting, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any reason,
at a time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Holders, by Act of
the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, shall

manner required by Section 6.8, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security
for at least six months may, on behalf of such Holder and all others similarly situated, and any
resigning Trustee may, at the expense of the Company, petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

	 	8.	 	Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

	 	a.	 	In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, each successor Trustee so
appointed shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an
instrument accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the
retiring Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act,
deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the
retiring Trustee; but, on the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring
Trustee shall, upon payment of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to
such successor Trustee all the rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall
duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all property and money held by
such retiring Trustee hereunder.
	 
	 	b.	 	Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and all instruments
for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all rights,
powers and trusts referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section 6.8.
	 
	 	c.	 	No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such
successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VI.

a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of
the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of
any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided, that such Person
shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VI. In case any Securities
shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by
merger, conversion or consolidation or as otherwise provided above in this Section 6.9 to
such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so
authenticated, and in case any Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the
Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor Trustee or in the
name of such successor Trustee, and in all cases the certificate of authentication shall have the
full force which it is provided anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture that the
certificate of the Trustee shall have.

	 
	 	10.	 	Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.
	 
	 	The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except the Trustee’s certificates of
authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any
Authenticating Agent assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no
representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities. Neither
the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the
Company of the Securities or the proceeds thereof.

	 
	 	11.	 	Appointment of Authenticating Agent.

	 	a.	 	The Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent or Agents with respect to the Securities,
which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Securities issued
upon original issue and upon exchange, registration of transfer or partial redemption thereof
or pursuant to Section 3.6, and Securities so authenticated shall be entitled to the
benefits of this Indenture and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if
authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Indenture to the
authentication and delivery of Securities by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of
authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery on
behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be
acceptable to the Company and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business
under the laws of the United States of America, or of any State or Territory thereof or
the District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a
combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination
by Federal or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least
annually pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or

 

Page 33 of 46

	 	 	 	examining authority, then
for the purposes of this Section 6.11 the combined capital and surplus of such
Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its
most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to
be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6.11, such Authenticating
Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section
6.11.
	 
	 	b.	 	Any Person into which an Authenticating Agent 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 Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to all or substantially
all of the corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent shall be the successor
Authenticating Agent hereunder, provided such Person shall be otherwise eligible under this
Section 6.11, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the
part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.
	 
	 	c.	 	An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the
Trustee and to the Company. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an
Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the
Company. Upon receiving such a notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at
any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 6.11, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating
Agent eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.11, which shall be acceptable to
the Company, and shall give notice of such appointment to all Holders. Any successor
Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all
the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally
named as an Authenticating Agent.
	 
	 	d.	 	The Company agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time reasonable
compensation for its services under this Section 6.11 in such amounts as the Company
and the Authenticating Agent shall agree from time to time.
	 
	 	e.	 	If an appointment of an Authenticating Agent is made pursuant to this Section 6.11,
the Securities may have endorsed thereon, in
addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternative certificate of
authentication in the following form:

This is one of the Securities designated therein referred to in the within mentioned Indenture.

State or Territory thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume, by an indenture

	 	c.	 	The Company will cause each Paying Agent for the Securities other than the Trustee to execute
and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the
Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 10.2, that such Paying Agent will
(i) comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act applicable to it as a Paying Agent
and (ii) during the continuance of any default by the Company (or any other obligor upon the

required by mandatory provision of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed property law)
be paid on Company Request to the Company, or (if then held by the Company) shall (unless
otherwise required by mandatory provision of applicable escheat or abandoned or unclaimed
property law) be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter,
as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof, and all

Page 37 of 46

	 	3.	 	Statement as to Compliance.
	 
	 	The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within one hundred and twenty (120) days after the end of
each fiscal year of the Company ending after the date hereof, an Officers’ Certificate covering the
preceding calendar year, stating whether or not to the knowledge of the signers thereof the Company
is in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of
this Indenture (without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder),
and if the Company shall be in default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status
thereof of which they may have knowledge.

	 
	 	4.	 	Calculation Agent.

	 	a.	 	The Company hereby agrees that for so long as any of the Securities remain Outstanding, there
will at all times be an agent appointed to calculate LIBOR in respect of each Interest Payment
Date in accordance with the terms of Schedule A (the “Calculation Agent”). The Company
has initially appointed the Trustee as Calculation Agent for purposes of determining LIBOR for
each Interest Payment Date. The Calculation Agent may be removed by the Company at any time.
So long as the Property Trustee holds any of the Securities, the Calculation Agent shall be
the Property
Trustee. If the Calculation Agent is unable or unwilling to act as such or is removed by the
Company, the Company will promptly appoint as a replacement Calculation Agent the London office of
a leading bank which is engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the international
Eurodollar market and which does not control or is not controlled by or under common control with
the Company or its Affiliates. The Calculation Agent may not resign its duties without a successor
having been duly appointed.
	 
	 	b.	 	The Calculation Agent shall be required to agree that, as soon as possible after 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on each LIBOR Determination Date (as defined in Schedule A), but in no
event later than 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day immediately following each LIBOR
Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will calculate the interest rate (the Interest
Payment shall be rounded to the nearest cent, with half a cent being rounded upwards) for the
related Interest Payment Date, and will communicate such rate and amount to the Company, the
Trustee, each Paying Agent and the Depositary. The Calculation Agent will also specify to the
Company the quotations upon which the foregoing rates and amounts are based and, in any event,
the Calculation Agent shall notify the Company before 5:00 p.m. (London time) on each LIBOR
Determination Date that either: (i) it has determined or is in the process of determining the
foregoing rates and amounts or (ii) it has not determined and is not in the process of
determining the foregoing rates and amounts, together with its reasons therefor. The
Calculation Agent’s determination of the foregoing rates and amounts for any Interest Payment
Date will (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding upon all parties. For the
sole purpose of calculating the interest rate for the Securities, “Business Day” shall be
defined as any day on which dealings in deposits in Dollars are transacted in the London
interbank market.

	 	5.	 	Additional Tax Sums.
	 
	 	So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, if (a) the Trust is the Holder of
all of the Outstanding Securities and (b) a Tax Event described in clause (i) or (iii) in the
definition of Tax Event in Section 1.1 hereof has occurred and is continuing, the Company
shall pay to the Trust (and its permitted successors or assigns under the related Trust Agreement)
for so long as the Trust (or its permitted successor or assignee) is the registered holder of the
Outstanding Securities, such amounts as may be necessary in order that the amount of Distributions
(including any Additional Interest Amount (as defined in the Trust Agreement)) then due and payable
by the Trust on the Preferred Securities and Common Securities that at any time remain outstanding
in accordance with the terms thereof shall not be reduced as a result of any Additional
Taxes arising from such Tax Event (additional such amounts payable by the Company to the Trust, the
“Additional Tax Sums”). Whenever in this Indenture or the Securities there is a reference in any
context to the payment of principal of or interest on the Securities, such mention shall be deemed
to include mention of the payments of the Additional Tax Sums provided for in this Section
10.5 to the extent that, in such context, Additional Tax Sums are, were or would be payable in
respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Section 10.5 and express mention of the
payment of Additional Tax Sums (if applicable) in any provisions hereof shall not be construed as
excluding Additional Tax Sums in those provisions hereof where such express mention is not made;
provided, that the deferral of the payment of interest pursuant to Section 3.9 on the
Securities shall not defer the payment of any Additional Tax Sums
that may be due and payable.

	 
	 	6.	 	Additional Covenants.

	 	a.	 	The Company covenants and agrees with each Holder of Securities that if an Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing or the Company shall have given notice of its election
to begin an Extension Period with respect to the Securities and shall not have rescinded such
notice, or such Extension Period, or any extension thereof, shall be continuing, it shall not
(i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions on, or redeem purchase, acquire or make a
liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of the Company’s capital stock, or (ii) make
any payment of principal of or any interest or premium on or repay, repurchase or redeem any
debt securities of the Company that rank pari passu in all respects with or junior in interest
to the Securities (other than (A) repurchases, redemptions or other acquisitions of shares of
capital stock of the Company in connection with any employment contract, benefit plan or other
similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more employees, officers, directors
or consultants, in connection with a dividend reinvestment or stockholder stock purchase plan
or in connection with the issuance of capital stock of the Company (or securities convertible
into or exercisable for such capital stock) as consideration in an acquisition transaction
entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, (B) as a result of an exchange or
conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock (or any capital stock of a
Subsidiary of the Company) for any class or series of the Company’s capital stock or of any
class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of the Company’s capital
stock, (C) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the

 

Page 38 of 46

	 	 	 	Company’s capital stock
pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the security being
converted or exchanged, (D) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any Rights Plan,
the issuance of rights, stock or
other property under any Rights Plan or the redemption or repurchase of rights pursuant thereto, or
(E) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock
or the stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as
that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks pari passu with or junior to such stock).
	 
	 	b.	 	The Company also covenants with each Holder of Securities (i) to hold, directly or
indirectly, one hundred percent (100%) of the Common Securities of the Trust, provided, that
any permitted successor of the Company hereunder may succeed to the Company’s ownership of
such Common Securities, (ii) as holder of such Common Securities, not to voluntarily dissolve,
wind-up or liquidate the Trust other than (A) in connection with a distribution of the
Securities to the holders of the Preferred Securities in liquidation of the Trust or (B) in
connection with certain mergers, consolidations or amalgamations permitted by the Trust
Agreement and (iii) to use its reasonable commercial efforts, consistent with the terms and
provisions of the Trust Agreement, to cause the Trust to continue to be taxable as a grantor
trust and not as a corporation for United States Federal income tax purposes.

	 	7.	 	Waiver of Covenants.
	 
	 	The Company may omit in any particular instance to comply with any covenant or condition contained
in Section 10.6 if, before or after the time for such compliance, the Holders of at least a
majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities shall, by Act of such Holders,
and at least a majority of the aggregate Liquidation Amount (as defined in the Trust Agreement) of
the Preferred Securities then outstanding, by consent of such holders, either waive such compliance
in such instance or generally waive compliance with such covenant or condition, but no such waiver
shall extend to or affect such covenant or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and,
until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Company in respect of any such
covenant or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

	 
	 	8.	 	Treatment of Securities.

	 	The Company will treat the Securities as indebtedness, and the amounts, other than payments of
principal, payable in respect of the principal amount of such Securities as interest, for all U.S.
federal income tax purposes. All payments in respect of the Securities will be made free and clear
of U.S. withholding tax to any beneficial owner thereof that has provided an Internal Revenue
Service Form W-8BEN (or any substitute or successor form) establishing its non-U.S. status for U.S.
federal income tax purposes.

XI.

	 	Redemption of Securities

	 	1.	 	Optional Redemption.
	 
	 	 	 	The Company may, at its option, on any Interest Payment Date, on or after September 30, 2008,
redeem the Securities in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a Redemption Price
equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the principal amount thereof (or of the redeemed portion
thereof, as applicable), together, in the case of any such redemption, with accrued interest,
including any Additional Interest, to but excluding the date fixed for redemption; provided, that
the Company shall have received the prior approval of the Federal Reserve with respect to such
redemption if then required.
	 
	 	2.	 	Special Event Redemption.
	 
	 	 	 	Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of a Special Event, the Company may, at its option,
redeem the Securities, in whole but not in part, at a Redemption Price equal to one hundred percent
(100%) of the principal amount thereof, together, in the case of any such redemption, with accrued
interest, including any Additional Interest, to but excluding the date fixed for redemption;
provided, that the Company shall have received the prior approval of the Federal Reserve with
respect to such redemption if then required.
	 
	 	3.	 	Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee.
	 
	 	 	 	The election of the Company to redeem any Securities, in whole or in part, shall be evidenced by or
pursuant to a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Company, the
Company shall, not less than forty five (45) days and not more than seventy five (75) days prior to
the Redemption Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the
Trustee and the Property Trustee under the Trust Agreement in writing of such date and of the
principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed and provide the additional information required
to be included in the notice or notices contemplated by Section 11.5. In the case of any
redemption of Securities, in whole or in part, (a) prior to the expiration of any restriction on
such redemption provided in this Indenture or the Securities or (b) pursuant to an election of the
Company which is subject to a condition specified in

 

Page 39 of 46

	this Indenture or the Securities, the Company
shall furnish the Trustee with an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel evidencing
compliance with such restriction or condition.

	 
	 	4.	 	Selection of Securities to be Redeemed.

	 	a.	 	If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed
shall be selected not more than sixty (60) days prior to the Redemption Date by the Trustee
from the Outstanding Securities not previously called for redemption, by such method as the
Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption
of a portion of the principal amount of any or each Security, provided, that the unredeemed
portion of the principal amount of any Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which
shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.
	 
	 	b.	 	The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Securities selected for
redemption and, in the case of any Securities selected for partial redemption, the principal
amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context
otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Securities shall relate, in
the case of any Security redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the
principal amount of such Security that has been or is to be redeemed.
	 
	 	c.	 	The provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 11.4 shall not apply with
respect to any redemption affecting only a single Security, whether such Security is to be
redeemed in whole or in part. In the case of any such redemption in part, the unredeemed
portion of the principal amount of the Security shall be in an authorized denomination (which
shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination) for such Security.

	 	5.	 	Notice of Redemption.

	 	a.	 	Notice of redemption shall be given not later than the thirtieth (30th) day, and
not earlier than the sixtieth (60th) day, prior to the Redemption Date to each
Holder of Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part, (unless a shorter notice shall be
satisfactory to the Property Trustee under the related Trust Agreement).
	 
	 	b.	 	With respect to Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part, each notice 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, as calculated by the
Company, together with a statement that it is an estimate and that the actual Redemption Price
will be calculated on the fifth 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.	 	if less than all Outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the
case of partial redemption, the respective principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed;
	 
	 	iv.	 	that on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price will become due and payable upon each such
Security or portion thereof, and that any interest (including any Additional Interest) on such
Security or such portion, as the case may be, shall cease to accrue on and after said date;
and
	 
	 	v.	 	the place or places where such Securities are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption
Price.

	 	c.	 	Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the election of
the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request, by the Trustee in the
name and at the expense of the Company and shall be irrevocable. The notice if mailed in the
manner provided above shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not
the Holder receives such notice. In any case, a failure to give such notice by mail or any
defect in the notice to the Holder of any Security designated for redemption as a whole or in
part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any other
Security.

	 	6.	 	Deposit of Redemption Price.
	 
	Prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date specified in the notice of
redemption given as provided in Section 11.5, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or
with one or more Paying Agents (or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company
will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.2) an amount of money sufficient
to pay the Redemption Price of, and any accrued interest (including any Additional Interest) on,
all the Securities (or portions thereof) that are to be redeemed on that date.

	 
	 	7.	 	Payment of Securities Called for Redemption.

	 	a.	 	If any notice of redemption has been given as provided in Section 11.5, the
Securities or portion of Securities with respect to which such notice has been given shall
become due and payable on the date and at the place or places stated in such notice at the
applicable Redemption Price, together with accrued interest (including any Additional
Interest) to the Redemption Date. On presentation and surrender of such Securities at a Place
of Payment specified in such notice, the Securities or the specified portions thereof shall be
paid and redeemed by the Company at the applicable Redemption Price, together with accrued
interest (including any Additional Interest) to the Redemption Date.
	 
	 	b.	 	Upon presentation of any Security redeemed in part only, the Company shall execute and the
Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new Security or Securities, of
authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the
Security so presented and having the same Original Issue Date, Stated Maturity and terms.
	 
	 	c.	 	If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for
redemption, the principal of and any premium on such Security shall, until paid, bear interest
from the Redemption Date at the rate prescribed therefor in the

 

Page 40 of 46

	 	 	 	Security.

XII.

	 	Subordination
of Securities

	 	1.	 	Securities Subordinate to Senior Debt.
	 
	 	The Company covenants and agrees, and each Holder of a Security, by its acceptance thereof,
likewise covenants and agrees, that, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth in this
Article XII, the payment of the principal of and any premium and interest (including any
Additional Interest) on each and all of the Securities are hereby expressly made subordinate and
subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all
Senior Debt.

	 
	 	2.	 	No Payment When Senior Debt in Default; Payment Over of Proceeds Upon Dissolution, Etc.

	 	a.	 	In the event and during the continuation of any default by the Company in the payment of any
principal of or any premium or interest on any Senior Debt (following any grace period, if
applicable) when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity or at a date fixed for
prepayment or by declaration of acceleration or otherwise, then, upon written notice of such
default to the Company by the holders of such Senior Debt or any trustee therefor, unless and
until such default shall have been cured or waived or shall have ceased to exist, no direct or
indirect payment (in cash, property, securities, by set-off or otherwise) shall be made or
agreed to be made on account of the principal of or any premium or interest (including any
Additional Interest) on any of the Securities, or in respect of any redemption, repayment,
retirement, purchase or other acquisition of any of the Securities.
	 
	 	b.	 	In the event of a bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding described in clause (d) or (e)
of the definition of Event of Default (each such event, if any, herein sometimes referred to
as a “Proceeding”), all Senior Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the
commencement of any such proceedings) shall first be paid in full before any payment or
distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property, shall be made to any Holder of
any of the Securities on account thereof. Any payment or
distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than securities of the Company
or any other entity provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which
is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions with respect to
the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, to the payment of all Senior Debt at the time
outstanding and to any securities issued in respect thereof under any such plan of reorganization
or readjustment), which would otherwise (but for these subordination provisions) be payable or
deliverable in respect of the Securities shall be paid or delivered directly to the holders of
Senior Debt in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders until all Senior
Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any Proceeding) shall have
been paid in full.
	 
	 	c.	 	In the event of any Proceeding, after payment in full of all sums owing with respect to
Senior Debt, the Holders of the Securities, together with the holders of any obligations of
the Company ranking on a parity with the Securities, shall be entitled to be paid from the
remaining assets of the Company the amounts at the time due and owing on account of unpaid
principal of and any premium and interest (including any Additional Interest) on the
Securities and such other obligations before any payment or other distribution, whether in
cash, property or otherwise, shall be made on account of any capital stock or any obligations
of the Company ranking junior to the Securities and such other obligations. If,
notwithstanding the foregoing, any payment or distribution of any character or any security,
whether in cash, securities or other property (other than securities of the Company or any
other entity provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment the payment of which is
subordinate, at least to the extent provided in these subordination provisions with respect to
the indebtedness evidenced by the Securities, to the payment of all Senior Debt at the time
outstanding and to any securities issued in respect thereof under any such plan of
reorganization or readjustment) shall be received by the Trustee or any Holder in
contravention of any of the terms hereof and before all Senior Debt shall have been paid in
full, such payment or distribution or security shall be received in trust for the benefit of,
and shall be paid over or delivered and transferred to, the holders of the Senior Debt at the
time outstanding in accordance with the priorities then existing among such holders for
application to the payment of all Senior Debt remaining unpaid, to the extent necessary to pay
all such Senior Debt (including any interest thereon accruing after the commencement of any
Proceeding) in full. In the event of the failure of the Trustee or any Holder to endorse or
assign any such
payment, distribution or security, each holder of Senior Debt is hereby irrevocably authorized to
endorse or assign the same.
	 
	 	d.	 	The Trustee and the Holders, at the expense of the Company, shall take such reasonable action
(including the delivery of this Indenture to an agent for any holders of Senior Debt or
consent to the filing of a financing statement with respect hereto) as may, in the opinion of
counsel designated by the holders of a majority in principal amount of the Senior Debt at the
time outstanding, be necessary or appropriate to assure the effectiveness of the subordination
effected by these provisions.
	 
	 	e.	 	The provisions of this Section 12.2 shall not impair any rights, interests, remedies
or powers of any secured creditor of the Company in respect of any security interest the
creation of which is not prohibited by the provisions of this Indenture.
	 
	 	f.	 	The securing of any obligations of the Company, otherwise ranking on a parity with the
Securities or ranking junior to the Securities, shall not be deemed to prevent such
obligations from constituting, respectively, obligations ranking on a parity with the
Securities or ranking junior to the Securities.

	 	3.	 	Payment Permitted If No Default.

 

Page 41 of 46

	 	 	 	Nothing contained in this Article XII or elsewhere in this Indenture or in any of the
Securities shall prevent (a) the Company, at any time, except during the pendency of the conditions
described in paragraph (a) of Section 12.2 or of any Proceeding referred to in Section
12.2, from making payments at any time of principal of and any premium or interest (including
any Additional Interest) on the Securities or (b) the application by the Trustee of any moneys
deposited with it hereunder to the payment of or on account of the principal of and any premium or
interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities or the retention of such payment by
the Holders, if, at the time of such application by the Trustee, it did not have knowledge (in
accordance with Section 12.8) that such payment would have been prohibited by the
provisions of this Article XII, except as provided in Section 12.8.
	 
	 	4.	 	Subrogation to Rights of Holders of Senior Debt.
	 
	 	 	 	Subject to the payment in full of all amounts due or to become due on all Senior Debt, or the
provision for such payment in cash or cash equivalents or otherwise in a manner satisfactory to the
holders of Senior Debt, the Holders of the Securities shall be subrogated to the extent of the
payments or distributions made to the holders of such Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions of
this Article XII (equally and ratably with the holders of all indebtedness of the Company
that by its express terms is subordinated to Senior Debt of the Company to substantially the same
extent as the Securities are subordinated to the Senior Debt and is entitled to like rights
of subrogation by reason of any payments or distributions made to holders of such Senior Debt) to
the rights of the holders of such Senior Debt to receive payments and distributions of cash,
property and securities applicable to the Senior Debt until the principal of and any premium and
interest (including any Additional Interest) on the Securities shall be paid in full. For purposes
of such subrogation, no payments or distributions to the holders of the Senior Debt of any cash,
property or securities to which the Holders of the Securities or the Trustee would be entitled
except for the provisions of this Article XII, and no payments made pursuant to the
provisions of this Article XII to the holders of Senior Debt by Holders of the Securities
or the Trustee, shall, as among the Company, its creditors other than holders of Senior Debt, and
the Holders of the Securities, be deemed to be a payment or distribution by the Company to or on
account of the Senior Debt.
	 
	 	5.	 	Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights.
	 
	 	 	 	The provisions of this Article XII are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining
the relative rights of the Holders of the Securities on the one hand and the holders of Senior Debt
on the other hand. Nothing contained in this Article XII or elsewhere in this Indenture or
in the Securities is intended to or shall (a) impair, as between the Company and the Holders of the
Securities, the obligations of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to the
Holders of the Securities the principal of and any premium and interest (including any Additional
Interest) on the Securities as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with
their terms, (b) affect the relative rights against the Company of the Holders of the Securities
and creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation to the holders of Senior Debt or
(c) prevent the Trustee or the Holder of any Security (or to the extent expressly provided herein,
the holder of any Preferred Security) from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by
applicable law upon default under this Indenture, including filing and voting claims in any
Proceeding, subject to the rights, if any, under this Article XII of the holders of Senior
Debt to receive cash, property and securities otherwise payable or deliverable to the Trustee or
such Holder.
	 
	 	6.	 	Trustee to Effectuate Subordination.
	 
	 	 	 	Each Holder of a Security by his or her acceptance thereof authorizes and directs the Trustee on
his or her behalf to take such action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or
effectuate the subordination provided in this Article XII and appoints the Trustee his or
her attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes.
	 
	 	7.	 	No Waiver of Subordination Provisions.

	 	a.	 	No right of any present or future holder of any Senior Debt to enforce subordination as
herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure
to act on the part of the Company or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such
holder, or by any noncompliance by the Company with the terms, provisions and covenants of
this Indenture, regardless of any knowledge thereof that any such holder may have or be
otherwise charged with.
	 
	 	b.	 	Without in any way limiting the generality of paragraph (a) of this Section 12.7, the
holders of Senior Debt may, at any time and from to time, without the consent of or notice to
the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, without incurring responsibility to such Holders
of the Securities and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this
Article XII or the obligations hereunder of such Holders of the Securities to the
holders of Senior Debt, do any one or more of the following: (i) change the manner, place or
terms of payment or extend the time of payment of, or renew or alter, Senior Debt, or
otherwise amend or supplement in any manner Senior Debt or any instrument evidencing the same
or any agreement under which Senior Debt is outstanding, (ii) sell, exchange, release or
otherwise deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt, (iii)
release any Person liable in any manner for the payment of Senior Debt and (iv) exercise or
refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person.

	 	8.	 	Notice to Trustee.

	 	a.	 	The Company shall give prompt written notice to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of any
fact known to the Company that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee
in respect of the Securities. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XII or
any other provision of this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of

 

Page 42 of 46

	 	 	 	the existence of any facts that would prohibit the making of any payment to or by the Trustee in
respect of the Securities, unless and until a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have
received written notice thereof from the Company or a holder of Senior Debt or from any
trustee, agent or representative therefor; provided, that if the Trustee shall not have
received the notice provided for in this Section 12.8 at least two Business Days prior
to the date upon which by the terms hereof any monies may become payable for any purpose
(including, the payment of the principal of and any premium on or interest (including any
Additional Interest) on any Security), then, anything herein contained to the contrary
notwithstanding, the Trustee shall have full power and authority to receive such monies and to
apply the same to the purpose for which they were received and shall not
be affected by any notice to the contrary that may be received by it within two Business Days prior
to such date.
	 
	 	b.	 	The Trustee shall be entitled to rely on the delivery to it of a written notice by a Person
representing himself or herself to be a holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee, agent,
representative or attorney-in-fact therefor) to establish that such notice has been given by a
holder of Senior Debt (or a trustee, agent, representative or attorney-in-fact therefor). In
the event that the Trustee determines in good faith that further evidence is required with
respect to the right of any Person as a holder of Senior Debt to participate in any payment or
distribution pursuant to this Article XII, the Trustee may request such Person to
furnish evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Trustee as to the amount of Senior Debt
held by such Person, the extent to which such Person is entitled to participate in such
payment or distribution and any other facts pertinent to the rights of such Person under this
Article XII, and if such evidence is not furnished, the Trustee may defer any payment
to such Person pending judicial determination as to the right of such Person to receive such
payment.

	 	9.	 	Reliance on Judicial Order or Certificate of Liquidating Agent.
	 
	 	 	 	Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Article XII,
the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any order
or decree entered by any court of competent jurisdiction in which such Proceeding is pending, or a
certificate of the trustee in bankruptcy, receiver, liquidating trustee, custodian, assignee for
the benefit of creditors, agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, delivered to
the Trustee or to the Holders of Securities, for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled
to participate in such payment or distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other
indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Article XII.
	 
	 	10.	 	Trustee Not Fiduciary for Holders of Senior Debt.
	 
	 	 	 	The Trustee, in its capacity as trustee under this Indenture, shall not be deemed to owe any
fiduciary duty to the holders of Senior Debt and shall not be liable to any such holders if it
shall in good faith mistakenly pay over or distribute to Holders of Securities or to the Company or
to any other Person cash, property or securities to which any holders of Senior Debt shall be
entitled by virtue of this Article XII or otherwise.
	 
	 	11.	 	Rights of Trustee as Holder of Senior Debt; Preservation of Trustee’s Rights.
	 
	 	 	 	The Trustee in its individual capacity shall be entitled to all the rights set forth in this
Article XII with respect to any Senior Debt that may at any time be held by it, to the same
extent as any other holder of Senior Debt, and nothing in this Indenture shall deprive the Trustee
of any of its rights as such holder.
	 
	 	12.	 	Article Applicable to Paying Agents.

If at any time any Paying Agent other than the Trustee shall have been appointed by the Company and
be then acting hereunder, the term “Trustee” as used in this Article XII shall in such case
(unless the context otherwise requires) be construed as extending to and including such Paying
Agent within its meaning as fully for all intents and purposes as if such Paying Agent were named
in this Article XII in addition to or in place of the Trustee; provided, that
Sections 12.8 and 12.11 shall not apply to the Company or any Affiliate of
the Company if the Company or such Affiliate acts as Paying Agent.

* * * *

This instrument may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which so executed shall be
deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same
instrument.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Indenture to be duly executed as of the day
and year first above written.

(1) On the second LIBOR Business Day (as defined below) prior to an Interest Payment Date (except
with respect to the first interest payment period, such date shall be September 26, 2003) (each
such day, a “LIBOR Determination Date”), LIBOR for any given security shall for the following
interest payment period equal the rate, as obtained by the Calculation Agent from Bloomberg
Financial Markets Commodities News, for three-month Eurodollar deposits that appears on Dow Jones
Telerate Page 3750 (as defined in the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. 1991
Interest Rate and Currency Exchange Definitions), or such other page as may replace such Page 3750,
as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such LIBOR Determination Date.

(2) If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, such rate does not appear on Dow Jones Telerate Page 3750
or such other page as may replace such Page 3750, the Calculation Agent shall determine the
arithmetic mean of the offered quotations of the Reference Banks (as defined below) to leading
banks in the London interbank market for three-month Eurodollar deposits in an amount determined by
the Calculation Agent by reference to requests for quotations as of approximately 11:00 a.m.
(London time) on the LIBOR Determination Date made by the Calculation Agent to the Reference Banks.
If, on any LIBOR Determination Date, at least two of the Reference Banks provide such quotations,
LIBOR shall equal such arithmetic mean of such quotations. If, on any LIBOR Determination Date,
only one or none of the Reference Banks provide such quotations, LIBOR shall be deemed to be the
arithmetic mean of the offered quotations that leading banks in the City of New York selected by
the Calculation Agent are quoting on the relevant LIBOR Determination Date for three-month
Eurodollar deposits in an amount determined by the Calculation Agent by reference to the principal
London offices of leading banks in the London interbank market; provided that, if the Calculation
Agent is required but is unable to determine a rate in accordance with at least one of the
procedures provided above, LIBOR shall be LIBOR as determined on the previous LIBOR Determination
Date.

(3) As used herein: “Reference Banks” means four major banks in the London interbank market
selected by the Calculation Agent; and “LIBOR Business Day” means a day on which commercial banks
are open for business (including dealings in foreign exchange and foreign currency deposits) in
London.
