 Exhibit 4.7 
 TRUST AGREEMENT 
 This TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of May 12, 2006 (this “Trust
Agreement”), among (i) BB&T Corporation, a North Carolina corporation (the “Depositor”); (ii) Wilmington Trust Company, a Delaware banking corporation, as trustee; and (iii) M. Patricia Oliver and Christopher L.
Henson, each an individual, as trustees (each of such trustees in (ii) and (iii) a “Trustee” and collectively, the “Trustees”). 
 The Depositor and the Trustees hereby agree as follows: 
 1. The trust created hereby (the
“Trust”) shall be known as “BB&T Capital Trust II” in which name the Trustees, or the Depositor to the extent provided herein, may engage in the transactions contemplated hereby, make and execute contracts, and sue and be
sued. 
 2. The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over the Trustees the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00). The Trustees hereby
acknowledge receipt of such amount in trust from the Depositor, which amount shall constitute the initial trust estate. The Trustees hereby declare that they will hold the trust estate in trust for the Depositor. It is the intention of the parties
hereto that the Trust created hereby constitute a Statutory Trust under Chapter 38 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code, 12 Del. C. Section 3801, et seq. (the “Statutory Trust Act”), and that this document constitute the governing
instrument of the Trust. The Trustees are hereby authorized and directed to execute and file a certificate of trust with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of the Statutory Trust Act. 
 3. The Depositor and the Trustees will enter into an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, satisfactory to each such party and substantially in the form
included as an exhibit to the 1933 Act Registration Statement (as defined below), to provide for the contemplated operation of the Trust created hereby and the issuance of the Preferred Securities and Common Securities referred to therein. Prior to
the execution and delivery of such Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, the Trustees shall not have any duty or obligation hereunder or with respect to the trust estate, except as otherwise required by applicable law or as may be necessary to
obtain prior to such execution and delivery of any licenses, consents or approvals required by applicable law or otherwise. 
 4. The
Depositor and the Trustees hereby authorize and direct the Depositor, as the agent of the Trust, (i) to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and execute, in each case on behalf of the Trust, (a) the
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “1933 Act Registration Statement”) (including any pre-effective or post-effective amendments to the 1933 Act Registration Statement) relating to the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, of the Preferred Securities of the Trust and certain other securities; and (b) a Registration Statement on Form 8-A (the “1934 Act Registration Statement”) (including all pre-effective and post-effective amendments thereto)
relating to the registration of the Preferred Securities of the Trust under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; (ii) to file with the New York Stock Exchange or any other exchange (each, an “Exchange”) and execute on
behalf of the Trust one or more listing applications and all other applications, statements, certificates, agreements and other instruments as shall be necessary or desirable to cause the Preferred Securities to be listed on any of the Exchanges;
(iii) to file and execute on behalf of the Trust such applications, reports, surety bonds, irrevocable consents, appointments of attorney for service of process and other papers and documents as shall be necessary or desirable to register the
Preferred Securities under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as the Depositor, on behalf of the Trust, may deem necessary or desirable; and (iv) to execute on behalf of the Trust one or more underwriting agreements relating
to the Preferred Securities, among the Trust, the Depositor and the underwriter(s) named therein, substantially in the form included as an exhibit to the 1933 Act Registration Statement. In the event that any filing referred to in clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii) above is required by the rules 

 
and regulations of the Commission, an Exchange or state securities or blue sky laws, to be executed on behalf of the Trust by one or more of the Trustees,
each of the Trustees, in its or his capacity as a Trustee of the Trust, is hereby authorized and, to the extent so required, directed to join in any such filing and to execute on behalf of the Trust any and all of the foregoing, it being understood
that Wilmington Trust Company in its capacity as a Trustee of the Trust shall not be required to join in any such filing or execute on behalf of the Trust any such document unless required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, the Exchange
or state securities or blue sky laws. In connection with the filings referred to above, the Depositor and M. Patricia Oliver and Christopher L. Henson, each as Trustees and not in their individual capacities, hereby constitutes and appoints M.
Patricia Oliver and Christopher L. Henson and each of them, as its true and lawful attorneys-in-fact and agents, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, for the Depositor or such Trustee or in the Depositor’s or such Trustees’
name, place and stead, in any and all capacities, to sign any and all amendments (including post-effective amendments) to the 1933 Act Registration Statement and the 1934 Act Registration Statement and to file the same, with all exhibits thereto,
and other documents in connection therewith, with the Commission, the Exchange and administrators of the state securities or blue sky laws, granting unto said attorneys-in-fact and agents full power and authority to do and perform each and every act
and thing requisite and necessary to be done in connection therewith, as fully to all intents and purposes as the Depositor or such Trustee might or could do in person, hereby ratifying and confirming all that said attorneys-in-fact and agents or
any of them, or their respective substitute or substitutes, shall do or cause to be done by virtue hereof. 
 5. This Trust Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts. 
 6. The number of Trustees initially shall be three (3) and thereafter the number of Trustees
shall be such number as shall be fixed from time to time by a written instrument signed by the Depositor which may increase or decrease the number of Trustees; provided, however, that to the extent required by the Statutory Trust Act, one Trustee
shall either be a natural person who is a resident of the State of Delaware or, if not a natural person, an entity which has its principal place of business in the State of Delaware and otherwise meets the requirements of applicable Delaware law.
Subject to the foregoing, the Depositor is entitled to appoint or remove without cause any Trustee at any time. The Trustees may resign upon thirty (30) days’ prior notice to the Depositor. 
 7. This Trust Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (without regard to conflict of laws of
principles).

accountable in damages or otherwise to the Trust, the Depositor, the Trustees or any holder of the Preferred Securities (the Trust, the Depositor and any holder of the Trust Securities being a “Covered Person”) for any loss, damage or
claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons in good faith on behalf of the Trust and in a manner the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority

value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to holders of Trust Securities might properly be paid. 
 (c) The Depositor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, (i) to indemnify and hold harmless each Fiduciary Indemnified Person
from and against any loss, damage, liability, tax, penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by reason of the creation, operation or termination of the Trust in a manner the Fiduciary
Indemnified Persons reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by this Trust Agreement of Trust, except that no Fiduciary Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect
of any loss, damage or claim incurred by the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by reason of negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions, and (ii) to advance expenses (including legal fees) incurred by a Fiduciary
Indemnified Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding shall, from time to time, prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt by the Trust of an undertaking by or on behalf of
such Fiduciary Indemnified Persons to repay such amount if it shall be determined that such Fiduciary Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in the preceding subsection. 
 (d) The provisions of Section 8 shall survive the termination of this Trust Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the Fiduciary
Indemnified Persons.
