Any notice mailed to a Holder in the manner herein prescribed shall be conclusively deemed to have been received by such Holder, whether or not such Holder actually receives such notice. 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.

In case by reason of the suspension of or irregularities in regular mail service or by reason of any other cause, it shall be impracticable to mail notice of any event to Holders when such 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 for every purpose hereunder.

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

All covenants and agreements in this Indenture by the Trust shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.

In case 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.

Nothing in this Indenture or in the Securities, express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto, any Paying Agent, any Securities Registrar and their successors hereunder and the Holders any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Indenture.

This Indenture and the Securities shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York. Upon the issuance of the Exchange Securities, if any, or the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, this Indenture will be subject to the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, that are required to be part of this Indenture and shall, to the extent applicable, be governed by such provisions.

In any case where any Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or Stated Maturity or Maturity of any Security shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Securities) payment of interest or principal (and premium, if any) need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date or sinking fund payment date, or at the Stated Maturity or Maturity; provided that no interest shall accrue on such payment for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date, Redemption Date, Stated Maturity or Maturity, as the case may be, if such payment is made in accordance with this Indenture on the next succeeding Business Day.

(b) Each Global Security, whether or not an Initial Security, shall also bear the following legend on the face thereof:

UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED SIGNATORY OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (“DTC”), TO THE TRUST OR ITS AGENT FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

TRANSFERS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS IN WHOLE, BUT NOT IN PART, TO NOMINEES OF CEDE & CO. OR TO A SUCCESSOR THEREOF OR SUCH SUCCESSOR’S NOMINEE AND TRANSFERS OF PORTIONS OF THIS GLOBAL SECURITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO TRANSFERS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN SECTION 307 OF THE INDENTURE.

The aggregate principal amount of Securities which may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture is limited to $250,000,000, except for Securities authenticated and delivered upon registration of transfer of, or in exchange for, or in lieu of, other Securities pursuant to Section 303, 304, 305, 306, 307, 308, 906, 1021 or 1108 or pursuant to an Exchange Offer.

The Stated Maturity of the Securities shall be March 1, 2014, and they shall bear interest at the rate of 7¹/2% per annum from February 25, 2004, or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, payable on September 1, 2004 and semiannually thereafter on each March 1 and September 1 in each year and at said Stated Maturity, until the principal thereof is paid or duly provided for.

The Trust will pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in money of the United States that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private, debts. Payments in respect of the Securities represented by a Global Security (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company or any successor depository. The Trust will make all payments in respect of U.S. Physical Securities at the offices of the Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Trust, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered Holder thereof; provided that, payments on the Securities may also be made in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by giving written notice to the Trustee or Paying Agent to such effect designating such account prior to the Regular Record Date (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion). If a payment date is a date other than a Business Day, payment may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day and, subject to the provisions of the Indenture, no interest shall accrue for the intervening period.

Holders shall have the right to require the Trust to purchase their Securities, in whole or in part, in the event of the Change of Control pursuant to Section 1021.

The Securities shall be redeemable as provided in Article Eleven and in the Securities.

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

The Securities shall be executed on behalf of the Trust by its Chairman or a Vice Chairman, its President or a Vice President, and attested by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary, Treasurer or Assistant Treasurer. The signature of any of these officers on the Securities may be manual or facsimile signatures of the present or any future such authorized officer and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Securities.

Securities bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Trust shall bind the Trust, 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.

At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Trust may deliver Initial Securities executed by the Trust to the Trustee for authentication, together with a Trust Order for the authentication and delivery of such Initial Securities, and the Trustee in accordance with such Trust Order shall authenticate and deliver for original issue Initial Securities in the aggregate principal amount of $250,000,000. On a Trust Order, the Trustee or an authenticating agent shall authenticate for original issue Exchange Securities in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $250,000,000; provided that such Exchange Securities shall be issuable only upon the valid surrender for cancellation of Initial Securities of a like aggregate principal amount in accordance with an Exchange Offer pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The Officers’ Certificate and Opinion of Counsel provided for in Section 103 shall not be applicable to the initial Trust Order to authenticate and deliver the Initial Securities to the Initial Purchasers. In each case thereafter, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel of the Trust in connection with such authentication of Securities as provided in Section 103. Such Trust Order shall specify the amount of Securities to be authenticated and the date on which the original issue of Initial Securities or Exchange Securities is to be authenticated.

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 in Exhibit A duly executed by the Trustee by manual signature of an authorized signatory, and such certificate upon any Security shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Security has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder and is entitled to the benefits of this Indenture.

In case the Trust, pursuant to Article Eight, shall be consolidated or merged with or into any other Person or shall sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any other Person or Persons or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to enter into any such transaction or series of related transactions where such transaction or series of related transactions, in the aggregate, would result in the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Trust and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis to any

other Person or Persons, and the successor Person resulting from such consolidation, or surviving such merger, or into which the Trust shall have been merged, or the Person or Persons which shall have received a sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition as aforesaid, shall have executed an indenture supplemental hereto with the Trustee pursuant to Article Eight, any of the Securities authenticated or delivered prior to such consolidation, merger, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition may, from time to time, at the request of the successor Person, be exchanged for other Securities executed in the name of the successor Person with such changes in phraseology and form as may be appropriate, but otherwise in substance of like tenor as the Securities surrendered for such exchange and of like principal amount; and the Trustee, upon Trust Request of the successor Person, shall authenticate and deliver Securities as specified in such request for the purpose of such exchange. If Securities shall at any time be authenticated and delivered in any new name of a successor Person pursuant to this Section in exchange or substitution for or upon registration of transfer of any Securities, such successor Person, at the option of the Holders but without expense to them, shall provide for the exchange of all Securities at the time Outstanding for Securities authenticated and delivered in such new name.

Pending the preparation of definitive Securities, the Trust may execute, and upon Trust Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, temporary Securities which are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized 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 conclusively evidenced by their execution of such Securities.

If temporary Securities are issued, the Trust 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 Trust designated for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Securities, the Trust shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like principal amount of definitive Securities of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Securities shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as definitive Securities.

The Trust shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office and in any other office or agency designated pursuant to Section 1002 being herein sometimes referred to as the “Security Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trust shall provide for the registration of Securities and of transfers of Securities. The Security Register shall be in written form or any other form capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. At all reasonable times, the Security Register shall be open to inspection by the Trustee. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as security registrar (the “Security Registrar”) for the purpose of registering Securities and transfers of Securities as herein provided.

Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Security at the office or agency of the Trust designated pursuant to Section 1002, the Trust 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 denomination or denominations of a like aggregate principal amount.

At the option of the Holder, Securities may be exchanged for other Securities of any authorized denomination and of a like aggregate principal amount, upon surrender of the Securities to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Securities are so surrendered for exchange (including an exchange of Initial Securities for Exchange Securities), the Trust shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, the Securities which the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive; provided that no exchange of Initial Securities for Exchange Securities shall occur until an Exchange Offer Registration Statement shall have been declared effective by the Commission and that the Securities to be exchanged for the Exchange Securities shall be canceled by the Trustee.

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

Every Security presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or for exchange shall (if so required by the Trust or the Security Registrar) be duly endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer, in form satisfactory to the Trust and the Security Registrar, duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange or redemption of Securities, but the Trust may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Securities, other than exchanges pursuant to Section 303, 304, 906, 1021 or 1108 not involving any transfer.

The Trust shall not be required (i) to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Security during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 days before the selection of Securities to be redeemed under Section 1104 and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing of the relevant notice of redemption, or (ii) to register the transfer of or exchange any Security so selected for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any Security being redeemed in part.

(a) Each Global Security initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Security or the nominee of such Depositary, (ii) be delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depositary and (iii) bear legends as set forth in Section 202.

Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Security held on their behalf by the Depositary, or the Trustee as its custodian, or under the Global Security, and the Depositary may be treated by the Trust, the Trustee and any agent of the Trust or the Trustee as the absolute owner of such Global Security for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Trust, the Trustee or any agent of the Trust or the Trustee, from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or other authorization furnished by the Depositary or shall impair, as between the Depositary and its Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a holder of any Security.

(b) Transfers of a Global Security shall be limited to transfers of such Global Security in whole, but not in part, to the Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees, except (i) as otherwise set forth in Section 307 and (ii) U.S. Physical Securities or Offshore Physical Securities shall be transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in the Rule 144A U.S. Global Security, the Accredited Investor U.S. Global Security or the Offshore Global Security, as applicable, in the event that the Depositary notifies the Trust that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the applicable Global Security or the Depositary ceases to be a Clearing Agency registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed by the Trust within 90 days. Interests of beneficial owners in a Global Security may be transferred in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of Section 307. In connection with the transfer of an entire Global Security to beneficial owners pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph (b), the applicable Global Security shall be deemed to be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Trust shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial owner identified by the Depositary in exchange for its beneficial interest in the applicable Global Security, an equal aggregate principal amount at maturity of U.S. Physical Securities (in the case of the Rule 144A U.S. Global Security and the Accredited Investor U.S. Global Security) or Offshore Physical Securities (in the case of the Offshore Global Security), as the case may be, of authorized denominations.

(c) Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Securities that is transferred to a Person who takes delivery in the form of an interest in the other Global Security will, upon transfer, cease to be an interest in such Global Security and become an interest in the other Global Security and, accordingly, will thereafter be subjected to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Security for as long as it remains such an interest.

(d) Any U.S. Physical Security delivered in exchange for an interest in the Rule 144A U.S. Global Security or the Accredited Investor U.S. Global Security pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall, unless such change is made on or after the Resale Restriction Termination Date and except as otherwise provided in Section 307, bear the Private Placement Legend.

(e) The registered holder of a Global Security may grant proxies and otherwise authorize any person, including Agent Members and persons that may hold interests through Agent Members, to take any action which a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture or the Securities.

Unless and until (i) an Initial Security is sold pursuant to an effective Registration Statement, or (ii) an Initial Security is exchanged for an Exchange Security in the Exchange Offer pursuant to an effective Registration Statement, in each case, pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the following provisions shall apply:

(a) General. The provisions of this Section 307 shall apply to all transfers involving any Physical Security and any beneficial interest in any Global Security.

(b) Certain Definitions. As used in this Section 307 only, “delivery” of a certificate by a transferee or transferor means the delivery to the Security Registrar by such transferee or transferor of the applicable certificate duly completed; “holding” includes both possession of a Physical Security and ownership of a beneficial interest in a Global Security, as the context requires; “transferring” a Global Security means transferring that portion of the principal amount of the transferor’s beneficial interest therein that the transferor has notified the Security Registrar that it has agreed to transfer; and “transferring” a Physical Security means transferring that portion of the principal amount thereof that the transferor has notified the Security Registrar that it has agreed to transfer.

As used in this Indenture, Accredited Investor Certificate means a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit C; “Regulation S Certificate” means a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit D; “Rule 144A Certificate” means a certificate substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit E; and “Non-Registration Opinion and Supporting Evidence” means a written opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trust to the effect that, and such other certification or information as the Trust may reasonably require to confirm that, the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(c) Deemed Delivery of a Rule 144A Certificate in Certain Circumstances. A Rule 144A Certificate, if not actually delivered, will be deemed delivered if (A) (i) the transferor advises the Trust and the Trustee in writing that the relevant offer and sale were made in accordance with the provisions of Rule 144A (or, in the case of a transfer of a Physical Security, the transferor checks the box provided on the Physical Security to

that effect) and (ii) the transferee advises the Trust and the Trustee in writing that (x) it and, if applicable, each account for which it is acting in connection with the relevant transfer, is a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A, (y) it is aware that the transfer of Securities to it is being made in reliance on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A, and (z) if at any time the Trust is not subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the proposed date of transfer the transferee has been given the opportunity to obtain from the Trust the information referred to in Rule 144A(d)(4), and has either declined such opportunity or has received such information (or, in the case of a transfer of a Physical Security, the transferee signs the certification provided on the Physical Security to that effect); or (B) the transferor holds the Rule 144A U.S. Global Security and is transferring to a transferee that will take delivery in the form of the Rule 144A U.S. Global Security.

The Security Registrar shall effect and record, upon receipt of a written request from the Trust so to do, a transfer not otherwise permitted by Section 307(d), such recording to be done in accordance with the otherwise applicable provisions of Section 307(d), upon the furnishing by the proposed transferor or transferee of a Non-Registration Opinion and Supporting Evidence.

(h) General. By its acceptance of any Security bearing the Private Placement Legend, each Holder of such Security acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such Security set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it will transfer such Security only as provided in the Indenture. The Security Registrar shall not register a transfer of any Security unless such transfer complies with the restrictions with respect thereto set forth in this Indenture. The Security Registrar shall not be required to determine (but may rely upon a determination made by the Trust) the sufficiency or accuracy of any such certifications, legal opinions, other information or document.

(i) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Securities not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Security Registrar shall deliver Securities that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of Securities bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Security Registrar shall deliver only Securities that bear the Private Placement Legend unless (i) the circumstances exist contemplated by the fourth paragraph of Section 201 (with respect to an Offshore Physical Security) or the requested transfer is at least two years after the original issue date of the Initial Security (with respect to any Physical Security), (ii) there is delivered to the Security Registrar an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Trust and the Trustee to the effect that

neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act or (iii) such Securities are exchanged for Exchange Securities pursuant to an Exchange Offer.

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

In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Security has become or is about to become due and payable, the Trust in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Security, pay such Security.

Upon the issuance of any new Security under this Section, the Trust 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.

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

The provisions of this Section 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.

Interest on any Security which is payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest at the office or agency of the Trust maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002. The payment of interest shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by The Depository Trust Company or any successor depository. The Trust will make all payments in respect of U.S. Physical Securities at the offices of the Paying Agent, except that, at the option of the Trust, payment of interest may be made by mailing a check to the registered Holder thereof; provided that, payments on the Securities may also be made in the case of a Holder of at least $1,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Securities, by wire transfer to a U.S. dollar account maintained by the payee with a bank in the United States if such Holder elects payment by giving written notice to the Trustee or Paying Agent to such effect designating such account prior to the Regular Record Date (or such other date as the Trustee may accept in its discretion).

Any interest on any Security which is payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such defaulted interest and (to the extent lawful) interest on such defaulted interest at the rate borne by the Securities (such defaulted interest and interest thereon herein collectively called “Defaulted Interest”) may be paid by the Trust, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Trust 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, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Trust 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 Trust 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 as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Trust of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Trust, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 107, not less than 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 given, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2) The Trust 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, if, after notice given by the Trust to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause, such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section, each Security delivered under this Indenture upon registration of 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, which were carried by such other Security.

Prior to the due presentment of a Security for registration of transfer, the Trust, the Trustee and any agent of the Trust or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name such Security is registered as the owner of such Security for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of (and premium, if any, on) and (subject to Sections 305 and 309) interest on such Security and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Security be overdue, and none of the Trust, the Trustee or any agent of the Trust or the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

All Securities surrendered for payment, redemption, registration of transfer or exchange shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be delivered to the Trustee and shall be promptly canceled by it. The Trust may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Trust may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and may deliver to the Trustee (or to any other Person for delivery to the Trustee) for cancellation any Securities previously authenticated hereunder which the Trust has not issued and sold, and all Securities so delivered shall be promptly canceled by the Trustee. If the Trust shall so acquire any of the Securities, however, such acquisition shall not operate as a redemption or satisfaction of the indebtedness represented by such Securities unless and until the same are surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation. No Securities shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Securities canceled as provided in this Section, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All canceled Securities held by the Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures and certification of their disposal delivered to the Trust.

Interest on the Securities shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Trust in issuing the Securities may use CUSIP and ISIN numbers (if then generally in use), and, if so, the Trustee shall use CUSIP and ISIN numbers in notices of redemption or other notices to Holders as a convenience to Holders; provided that any such notice may state that no representation in made as to the correctness of such numbers either as printed on the Securities or as contained in the notice of redemption and that reliance may be placed only on the other identification numbers and other identifying information printed on the Securities, and any such redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or omission of such numbers. The Trust will promptly notify the Trustee of any change in the CUSIP and ISIN numbers.

This Indenture shall upon Trust Request cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of Securities herein expressly provided for) and the Collateral shall be released as provided in Section 1212, and the Trustee, at the expense of the Trust, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture, when:

(a) all Securities theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Securities which have been destroyed, lost or stolen and which have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 308 and (ii) Securities for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust with the Trustee or any Paying Agent or segregated and held in trust by the Trust and thereafter repaid to the Trust or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 1003) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation; or

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

(iii) 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 Trust,

and the Trust, in the case of (i), (ii) or (iii) of this subclause (b), has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee as trust funds in trust for the purpose an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Securities not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, for principal (and premium, if any) and interest to the date of such deposit (in the case of Securities which have become due and payable) or to the final Stated Maturity or Redemption Date, as the case may be;

(2) the Trust has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder by the Trust; and

(3) the Trust 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 Trust to the Trustee under Section 607 and, if money shall have been deposited with the Trustee pursuant to subclause (b) of clause (1) of this Section, the obligations of the Trustee under Section 402 and the last paragraph of Section 1003 shall survive.

Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of Section 1003, all money deposited with the Trustee pursuant to Section 401 shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Securities and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent (including the Trust acting as its own Paying Agent) as the Trustee may determine, to the Persons entitled thereto, of the principal (and premium, if any) and interest for whose payment such money has been deposited with the Trustee; but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law.

“Event of Default”, wherever used herein, means 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):

(i) default in the payment of any interest on any Security when it becomes due and payable and continuance of such default for a period of 30 days;

(v) default (other than a default on less than $20,000,000 principal amount of Trust Indebtedness at any one time) under any instrument or any other obligation (x) representing indebtedness for borrowed money of the Trust or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (y) representing indebtedness evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures or other similar instruments of the Trust or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (z) constituting a guarantee by the Trust or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Guaranteed Indebtedness of any other Person representing money borrowed or any obligation of such other Person evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures or other similar instruments, which default (a) consists of the failure to pay an amount aggregating in excess of $20,000,000 if such default continues for a period of 30 days after written notice of such failure requiring the Trust to remedy the same shall have been given (A) to the Trust by the Trustee or (B) to the Trust and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, or (b) results in the acceleration of indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount in excess of $20,000,000 or triggers the payment of a guarantee in excess of $20,000,000;

(vi) failure by the Bank to comply with any of its Regulatory Capital Requirements set forth in clause (ii) of the definition thereof; provided that an Event of Default under this clause (vi) shall not have occurred until the expiration of a 90-day period commencing on the date of the initial submission of a capital plan to the OTS by the Bank (unless such capital plan is approved by the OTS on or prior to the expiration of such 90-day period or, if the OTS has notified the Bank that it needs additional time to determine whether to approve such capital plan and such capital plan is approved by the OTS on or prior to the expiration of such extended period); provided further that if the Bank meets the minimum amount of capital required to meet each of the industry-wide regulatory capital requirements pursuant to 12 U.S.C. Section 1464(t) and 12 C.F.R. Section 567 (and any amendment to either thereof) or any successor law or regulation, notwithstanding the Bank’s failure to meet an individual minimum capital requirement pursuant to 12 U.S.C. Section 1464(s) and 12 C.F.R. Section 567.3 (and any amendment to either thereof) or any successor law or regulation, no Event of Default shall have occurred pursuant to this clause (vi) unless written notice thereof shall have been given (x) to the Bank by the Trustee or (y) to the Bank and the Trustee by the Holders of 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding;

(vii) existence of one or more judgments against the Trust or any of its Subsidiaries for the payment of money in excess of $20,000,000, either individually or in the aggregate, which remain undischarged 60 days after all rights to review directly such judgment or judgments, whether by appeal or writ, have been exhausted or have expired;

(viii) any provision of Article Twelve of this Indenture relating to the Collateral (other than Section 1204, insofar as it relates to obligations of the Trustee or the Custodian, or Section 1213(a)) shall cease, for any reason (other than under the terms of a supplemental indenture entered into pursuant to Section 902), to be in full force and effect in any material respect, or the Trust shall so assert in writing; or the Trustee shall cease to have a first priority perfected security interest, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, in the Collateral (other than by reason of the release of any such security interest in accordance with this Indenture), or any representation, warranty or certification of the Trust made in or pursuant to Section 1203 or 1205 shall be false in any material respect as of the date when made;

(c) any other term, covenant or condition contained in Article Twelve (other than a term, covenant or condition contained in Section 1203(k)) for a period of 30 days after written notice of such failure requiring the Trust to remedy the same shall have been given to the Trust by the Trustee or to the Trust and the Trustee by the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then Outstanding, or

(x) the entry of a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises adjudging the Trust or any Material Subsidiary a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of or in respect of the Trust or any Material Subsidiary under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable federal or state law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Trust or any Material Subsidiary 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 unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or

(xi) the institution by the Trust or any Material Subsidiary of proceedings to be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or the consent by it to the institution of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings against it, or the filing by it of a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization or relief under the Federal Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable federal or state law, or the consent by it to the filing of any such petition or to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, sequestrator (or other similar official) of the Trust or any Material Subsidiary or of any substantial part of its property, or the making 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.

If an Event of Default (other than as specified in clause (x) or (xi) of Section 501 with respect to the Trust) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may declare the principal amount of all the Securities to be immediately due and payable by notice to the Trust (and to the Trustee if given by the Holders), and upon any such declaration such principal amount shall become immediately due and payable. If an Event of Default specified in clause (x) or (xi) with respect to the Trust of Section 501 occurs and is continuing, then the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on all of the outstanding Securities shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holder of Securities.

At any time after a declaration of acceleration has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee as hereinafter in this Article Five provided, the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by written notice to the Trust and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(ii) all unpaid principal of (and premium, if any, on) any Outstanding Securities which has become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration, and interest on such unpaid principal at the rate borne by the Securities;

(iii) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate borne by the Securities; and

(iv) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under this Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel; and

(b) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of amounts of principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on the Securities that have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereon.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, in the event of any Event of Default specified in Section 501(v), such Event of Default and all consequences thereof (including without limitation any acceleration or resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded, automatically and without any action by the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, if within 30 days after such Event of Default arose (x) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such event of default has been discharged, or (y) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default, or (z) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.

If a Default specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (v), (vi) of Section 501, or specified in clause (iv) of Section 501 with respect to Sections 1010, 1011, 1015, 1020 and 1021 or specified in clauses (ix) of Section 501 with respect to Sections 1203(b),(c) and (d) and Section 1214(c), occurs and is continuing, or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the interest rate borne by the Securities will increase by 2% per annum until such time when such Defaults or Events of Default, as the case may be, have been cured or waived; provided, however, that if after such Default or Event of Default has been cured or waived a different Default specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii), (v), (vi) of this Section 501, or specified in clause (iv) of Section 501 with respect to Sections 1008(a), 1009 through 1021 or specified in clause (ix) of Section 501 with respect to Sections 1203(b),(c) and (d) and Sections 1214(c), occurs and is continuing, or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the interest rate may again be increased pursuant to the foregoing provision. Such interest will accrue from the date of such Default or Event of Default, as the case may be, and will be payable after the time the Trust has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default as set forth in the next paragraph.

Any additional interest on any Security which is payable pursuant to this Section 502, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on the Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder, and such additional interest (such interest herein called “Additional Interest”) may be paid by the Trust, at its election in each case, as provided in clause (1) or (2) below:

(1) The Trust may elect to make payment of any Additional 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 Additional Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Trust shall notify the Trustee in writing of the amount of Additional Interest proposed to be paid on each Security and the date of the proposed payment, and at the same time the Trust shall deposit with the Trustee an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount proposed to be paid in respect of such Additional 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 Additional Interest as in this clause provided. Thereupon the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Additional Interest, which shall be not more than 15 days and not less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Trust of such Special Record Date, and in the name and at the expense of the Trust, shall cause notice of the proposed payment of such Additional Interest and the Special Record Date therefor to be given in the manner provided for in Section 107, not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Additional Interest and the Special Record Date therefor having been so given, such Additional Interest shall be paid to the Persons in whose names the Securities (or their respective Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on such Special Record Date and shall not be payable pursuant to the following clause (2).

(2) The Trust may make payment of any Additional 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, if, after notice given by the Trust to the Trustee of the proposed payment pursuant to this clause (2), such manner of payment shall be deemed practicable by the Trustee.

(a) default is made in the payment of any installment of interest on any Security when such interest becomes due and payable and such default continues for a period of 30 days, or

(b) default is made in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) any Security at the Maturity thereof, the Trust 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 thereof (and premium, if any, thereon) and interest thereon, and interest on any overdue principal (and premium, if any) and, to the extent that payment of such interest shall be legally enforceable, upon any overdue installment of interest, at the rate borne by the Securities, and, in addition thereto, such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel.

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

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Holders 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.

In case of the pendency of any insolvency, bankruptcy, receivership, liquidation, conservatorship, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Trust or any other obligor upon the Securities or the property of the Trust or of such other obligor or their creditors, the Trustee (irrespective of whether the principal of the Securities shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Trustee shall have made any demand on the Trust for the payment of overdue principal, premium, if any, or interest) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise,

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of principal (and premium, if any) and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Securities and to file such other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Trustee (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel) and of the Holders allowed in such judicial proceeding, and

(ii) 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, conservator, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or 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 pay 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 due the Trustee under Section 607.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Securities or the rights of any Holder thereof, or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.

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 and as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Securities in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

Any money collected by the Trustee pursuant to this Article Five 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 on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of the Securities and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender thereof if fully paid:

SECOND: to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid for principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on the Securities 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 such Securities for principal (and premium, if any) and interest, respectively; and

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 receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless

(1) such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a continuing Event of Default or the Trustee receives such notice from the Trust;

(2) the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities make a written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Trustee hereunder;

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

(4) the Trustee does not comply with the request within 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity; and

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

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

SECTION 508. Unconditional Right of Holders to Receive Principal, Premium and Interest.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Indenture, but subject to the provisions of Section 515, the Holder of any Security shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment, as provided herein and in such Security, of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on such Security on the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on the Redemption Date) and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such rights shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

If the Trustee or any Holder 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 or to such Holder, then and in every such case, subject to any determination in such proceeding, the Trust, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such proceeding had been instituted.

Except as otherwise provided with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Securities in the last paragraph of Section 308, no right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to 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.

No delay or omission of the Trustee or of any Holder of any 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 Five or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be.

The Holders of not less than a majority in 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

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

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

(3) the Trustee need not take any action which might involve it in personal liability or be unjustly prejudicial to the Holders not consenting.

Subject to Section 502, the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities may on behalf of the Holders of all the Securities waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences, except a Default

(1) in respect of the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on any Security, or

(2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which under Article Nine may not be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected.

Upon any such waiver, such 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 Default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

The Trust 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 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 Trust (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.

All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Security by his acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for any enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken, suffered 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 litigant party; but the provisions of this Section 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 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, or to any suit instituted by any Holder for enforcement of the payment of principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on any Security on or after the respective Stated Maturities expressed in such Security (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date).

The Securities are nonrecourse obligations of the Trust, and the sole recourse for collection of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Securities will be against the Pledged Bank Stock and the other Collateral. The Trust’s obligations under the Securities are not guaranteed directly or indirectly by the Trust or any of its subsidiaries, and the Trust is not liable in any respect (except to the extent of its interest in the Pledged Bank Stock and the other Collateral) for the payment of any obligation due under the Securities.

(1) 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

(2) in the absence of bad faith or willful misconduct 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; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions, the Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Indenture, but not to verify the contents thereof.

(b) In case a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge or of which written notice of such Default or Event of Default shall have been given to the Trustee by the Trust, any other obligor of the Securities or by any Holder, the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

(c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that

(1) this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to limit the effect of paragraph (a) of this Section;

(2) the Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(3) 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 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, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Indenture; and

(4) 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.

(d) 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 601.

Within 90 days after the occurrence of any Default hereunder, the Trustee shall transmit in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c), notice of such Default

hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived; provided, however, that, except in the case of a Default in the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any, on) or interest on any Security, the Trustee shall be protected in withholding such 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 the withholding of such notice is in the interests of the Holders; and provided further that in the case of any Default of the character specified in Section 501(iv) no such notice to Holders shall be given until at least 30 days after the occurrence thereof.

Subject to the provisions of TIA Sections 315(a) through 315(d), which are incorporated herein by reference, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Indenture:

(1) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, direction, consent, order, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

(2) any request or direction of the Trust mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced by a Trust Request or Trust Order and any resolution of the Board of Trustees may be sufficiently evidenced by a Board Resolution;

(3) 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, rely upon an Officers’ Certificate;

(4) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the written 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;

(5) 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 reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;

(6) 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, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, but the Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit, and, if the Trustee shall determine to make such further inquiry or investigation, it shall be entitled to examine the books, records and premises of the Trust, personally or by agent or attorney;

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

(8) the Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Indenture;

(9) the Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in respect of the performance of its powers and duties hereunder;

(10) the permissive rights of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty; and

(11) except for a default under Section 501(i) or (ii) hereof, or any other event of which the Trustee has “actual knowledge” and which event, with the giving of notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute an Event of Default under this Indenture, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice of any Default or Event of Default unless specifically notified in writing of such event by the Trust or the Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities then outstanding; as used herein, the term “actual knowledge” means the actual fact or statement of knowing, without any duty to make any investigation with regard thereto.

The Trustee shall not be required 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.

The recitals contained herein and in the Securities, except for the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be taken as the statements of the Trust, and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Securities, except that the Trustee represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Securities and perform its obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and Qualification of Form T-1 supplied to the Trust are true and accurate, subject to the qualifications set forth therein. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Trust of Securities or the proceeds thereof.

The Trustee, any Paying Agent, any Security Registrar or any other agent of the Trust or of the Trustee, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Securities and, subject to TIA Sections 310(b) and 311, may otherwise deal with the Trust with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee, Paying Agent, Security Registrar or such other agent.

All money received by the Trustee shall, until used or applied as herein provided, be held in trust hereunder for the purposes for which they were received. Money held by the Trustee in trust hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as otherwise agreed with the Trust.

(1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust);

(2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, 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 or bad faith; and

(3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability, damage, claim or expense, including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this trust, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The Trustee shall notify the Trust promptly of any action, suit or proceeding for which it may seek indemnity. The Trust shall defend such action, suit or proceeding and the Trustee may have separate counsel. If the Trust has failed to assume the defense and employ counsel, or if the named parties to any such action, suit or proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Trustee and the Trust, and the Trustee shall have been advised by its counsel that representation of the Trustee and the Trust by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct due to actual or potential differing interests between them, the Trust shall pay the reasonable fees and expenses of one separate counsel to the Trustee. The Trust need not pay for any settlement made without its consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The obligations of the Trust under this Section to compensate the Trustee, to pay or reimburse the Trustee for expenses, disbursements and advances and to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder and shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture. As security for the performance of such obligations of the Trust, the Trustee shall have a claim prior to the Securities upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustee as such, except funds held in trust for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any, on) or interest on particular Securities.

The provisions of this Section 607 shall survive the termination of this Indenture.

There shall at all times be a Trustee hereunder which shall be eligible to act as Trustee under TIA Section 310(a)(1) and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000. If the Trustee does not have an office in The City of New York, the Trustee may appoint an agent in The City of New York reasonably acceptable to the Trust to conduct any activities which the Trustee may be required under this Indenture to conduct in The City of New York. If such corporation publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of federal, state, territorial or District of Columbia supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section, 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, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article Six.

(a) No resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 610.

(b) The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trust. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trust shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument executed by authority of the Board of Trustees, a copy of which shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and a copy to the successor trustee. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 610 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities.

(c) The Trustee may be removed at any time with respect to the Securities by Act of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, delivered to the Trustee and to the Trust. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 610 shall not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of removal, the Trustee being removed may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities.

(d) If the Trustee has or shall acquire any conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the TIA, then

(i) within 90 days after ascertaining that it has such conflicting interest, and if the Default to which such conflicting interest relates has not been cured or duly waived or otherwise eliminated before the end of such 90-day period, the Trustee shall either eliminate such conflicting interest or, except as otherwise provided in Section 310(b) of the TIA, resign, and the Trust shall take prompt steps to have a successor appointed in the manner provided in this Indenture, and

(ii) in the event that the Trustee shall fail to comply with clause (i) of this Subsection (d), the Trustee shall, within 10 days after the expiration of such 90-day period, transmit notice of such failure to the Holders in the manner provided in the TIA.

(1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with the provisions of TIA Section 310(b) after written request therefor by the Trust or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

(2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 608 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Trust or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months, or

(3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,

then, in any such case, (i) the Trust, by a Board Resolution, may remove the Trustee, or (ii) subject to Section 515, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(f) 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 cause with respect to the Securities, the Trust, by a Board Resolution, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee. If, within one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a successor Trustee with respect to the Securities shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities delivered to the Trust and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment, become the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities and supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Trust. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed by the Trust or the

Holders and accepted appointment in the manner hereinafter provided, any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Security for at least six months may, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.

(g) The Trust shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to the Holders of Securities in the manner provided for in Section 107. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee with respect to the Securities and the address of its Corporate Trust Office.

(a) Every successor Trustee appointed hereunder shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Trust 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 request of the Trust 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 Trust shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts.

(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 Six.

Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article Six, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any Securities shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such authentication and deliver the Securities so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor Trustee had itself authenticated such Securities; and in case at that time any of the Securities shall not have been authenticated, any successor Trustee may authenticate such Securities either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which it is anywhere in the Securities or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Trustee shall have; provided, however, that the right to adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor Trustee or to authenticate Securities in the name of any predecessor Trustee shall apply only to its successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation.

At any time when any of the Securities remain Outstanding, 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 and the Trustee shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities, in the manner provided for in Section 107. 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. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing signed by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, and a copy of such instrument shall be promptly furnished to the Trust. 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 and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent shall be acceptable to the Trust and shall at all times be a corporation organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state 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 corporation 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, 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 an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 612, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 612.

Any corporation into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the corporate agency or corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 612, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent.

An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Trust. 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 Trust. 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 612, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent which shall be acceptable to the Trust and shall give written notice of such appointment to all Holders of Securities, in the manner provided for in Section 107. 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. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section.

The Trust agrees to pay to each Authenticating Agent from time to time such compensation for its services under this Section as shall be agreed in writing between the Trust and such Authenticating Agent.

If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section, the Securities may have endorsed thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form:

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

as Trustee

By:

as Authenticating Agent

By:

Authorized Officer

Every Holder of Securities, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the Trust and the Trustee that none of the Trust or the Trustee or any agent of either of them shall be held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any information as to the names and addresses of the Holders in accordance with TIA Section 312, regardless of the source from which such information was derived, and that the Trustee shall not be held accountable by reason of mailing any material pursuant to a request made under TIA Section 312(b).

Within 60 days after May 15 of each year commencing with the first May 15 after the first issuance of Securities, the Trustee shall transmit to the Holders, in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c), a brief report dated as of such May 15 if required by TIA Section 313(a).

The Trustee also shall transmit to the holders, in the manner and to the extent provided by TIA Section 313(c), within the times hereinafter specified, a brief report with respect to

(a) the release, or release and substitution, of property subject to the Lien of this Indenture (and the consideration therefor, if any), unless the fair value of such property, as set forth in the certificate or opinion required by Section 1213(a)(i), is less than 10% of the principal amount of the Securities Outstanding at the time of such release, or such release and substitution, such report to be so transmitted within 90 days after such time, and

(b) the character and amount of any advances made by it as such since the date of the last report transmitted pursuant to the provisions of the first paragraph of this Section 702 (or, if no such report has yet been so transmitted, since the date of execution

of this Indenture), for the reimbursement of which it claims or may claim a lien or charge, prior to that of the Securities, on the trust estate or on property or funds held or collected by it as Trustee, and which it has not previously reported pursuant to this Subsection (b), if such advances remaining unpaid at any time aggregate more than 10% of the principal amount of the Securities Outstanding at such time, such report to be so transmitted within 90 days of such time.

(1) file with the Trustee, within 15 days after the Trust is required to file the same with the Commission, copies of the annual reports and of the information, documents and other reports (or copies of such portions of any of the foregoing as the Commission may from time to time by rules and regulations prescribe) which the Trust may be required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13 (a) or (c) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act; or, if the Trust is not required to file information, documents or reports pursuant to either of such Sections, then it shall file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such of the supplementary and periodic information, documents and reports which may be required pursuant to Section 13 (a) or (c) of the Exchange Act in respect of a security listed and registered on a national securities exchange as may be prescribed from time to time in such rules and regulations;

(2) file with the Trustee and the Commission, in accordance with rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission, such additional information, documents and reports with respect to compliance by the Trust with the conditions and covenants of this Indenture as may be required from time to time by such rules and regulations; and

(3) transmit by mail to all Holders, in the manner and to the extent provided in TIA Section 313(c), within 30 days after the filing thereof with the Trustee, such summaries of any information, documents and reports required to be filed by the Trust pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2) of this Section as may be required by rules and regulations prescribed from time to time by the Commission.

Except with respect to the Substitution as set forth under Section 1401, the Trust will not, in a single transaction or through a series of related transactions, consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person, or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any other Person or Persons or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to enter into any such transaction or series of related transactions if such transaction or series of related transactions, in the aggregate, would result in the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Trust and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis to any other Person or Persons, unless at the time and immediately after giving effect thereto:

(a) either (1) the Trust will be the continuing Person or (2) the Person (if other than the Trust) formed by such consolidation or into which the Trust or such Restricted Subsidiary is merged or the Person that acquires by sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition all or substantially all the properties and assets of the Trust and its Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (the “Surviving Entity”) (i) will be a corporation or other entity duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and (ii) will expressly assume, by a supplemental indenture in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the Trust’s obligation for the due and punctual payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all the Securities and the performance and observance of every covenant of the Indenture on the part of the Trust to be performed or observed;

(b) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions on a pro forma basis (and treating any obligation of the Trust or any Restricted Subsidiary incurred in connection with or as a result of such transaction or series of transactions as having been incurred at the time of such transaction), no Default or Event of Default will have occurred and be continuing; and

(c) immediately after giving effect to such transaction or series of transactions on a pro forma basis (and treating any obligation of the Trust or any Restricted Subsidiary incurred in connection with or as a result of such transaction or series of transactions as having been incurred at the time of such transaction), the Consolidated Net Worth of the Trust (or of the Surviving Entity if the Trust is not a continuing obligor under the Indenture) is equal to or greater than the Consolidated Net Worth of the Trust immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions less the aggregate amount of all reasonable transaction costs incurred in connection with such transaction or series of transactions.

The Bank will not, in a single transaction or through a series of related transactions, consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person, or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the

Bank to any other Person or permit any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any such transaction or series of related transactions if such transaction or series of related transactions, in the aggregate, would result in the sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Bank and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis to any other Person.

In connection with any such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, the Trust or the Surviving Entity shall deliver to the Trustee, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that such consolidation, merger, sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition, and if a supplemental indenture is required in connection with such transaction, such supplemental indenture, complies with the requirements of this Section 801 and that all conditions precedent therein provided for relating to such transaction have been complied with.

Upon any consolidation or merger, or any sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Trust in accordance with Section 801 in which the Trust is not the continuing obligor under the Indenture, the Surviving Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Trust under the Indenture with the same effect as if such successor had been named as the Trust therein. When a successor assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under this Indenture and the Securities, the predecessor shall be released from those obligations; provided that in the case of a transfer by lease, the predecessor shall not be released from the payment of principal and interest on the Securities.

Without the consent of any Holders, the Trust, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

(1) to evidence the succession of another Person to the Trust or any other obligor under the Securities and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Trust contained herein and in the Securities in accordance with the provisions of Article Eight; or

(2) to evidence the substitution of the New Obligor, and the assumption by the New Obligor of the obligations of the Trust in this Indenture and the Securities in accordance with Article Fourteen; or

(3) to add to the covenants of the Trust or any other obligor upon the Securities for the benefit of the Holders or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Trust or any other obligor upon the Securities; or

(5) to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein or in the Securities which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision herein or in the Securities, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or the Securities; provided that, in each case, such provisions shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders; or

(6) to comply with the requirements of the Commission in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture Act or any similar federal statute hereafter enacted; or

(7) to secure further the Securities or add a guarantor of the Securities under this Indenture; or

(8) to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment of a successor Trustee under this Indenture; or

(9) to mortgage, pledge, hypothecate or grant a security interest in favor of the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders as additional security for the payment and performance of the Trust’s obligations under this Indenture, in any property or assets, including any of which are required to be mortgaged, pledged or hypothecated, or in which a security interest is required to be granted, to the Trustee pursuant to this Indenture or otherwise.

With the consent of the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by Act of said Holders delivered to the Trust and the Trustee, the Trust, when authorized by a Board Resolution, and the Trustee may enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders under this Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby:

(1) change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Security, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof or change the coin or currency in which any Security or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment after the Stated Maturity thereof (or, in the case of redemption, on or after the Redemption Date); or

(2) amend, change or modify any of the provisions of Section 1021 including any definitions relating thereto, in a manner adverse to the Holders; or

(3) reduce the percentage in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, the consent of whose Holders is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose Holders is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Indenture; or

(4) modify any of the provisions of this Section 902, Sections 513, 1020 or 1214(a), (b) or (d), except to increase the percentage of Outstanding Securities required for such action or to provide that certain other provisions of this Indenture may not be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Outstanding Security affected thereby; or

(5) except as otherwise permitted under the provisions of Article Eight and Article Fourteen, consent to the assignment or transfer by the Trust of any of its rights and obligations under this Indenture; or

(6) make any change in any of the provisions of this Indenture relating to the Collateral that adversely affects the Holders; or

(7) waive a default in payment with respect to any Security (other than a rescission of acceleration of the Securities by the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities as provided herein and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

provided, however, that a majority in aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Securities may amend the provisions of Section 801 to permit the Bank to merge or consolidate with another Person for the sole purpose of obtaining a charter as a commercial bank or a state chartered thrift, so long as such merger or consolidation does not adversely affect the rights of the Holders of the Securities.

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Holders under this Section to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

In executing, or accepting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article or the modifications thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture which affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture under this Article Nine, this Indenture shall be modified in accordance therewith, and such supplemental indenture shall form a part of this Indenture for all purposes; and every Holder of Securities theretofore or thereafter authenticated and delivered hereunder shall be bound thereby.

Every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article Nine shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect.

Securities authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article Nine may, and shall if required by the Trustee, bear a notation in form approved by the Trustee as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Trust shall so determine, new Securities so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Trustee and the Trust, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Trust and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee in exchange for Outstanding Securities.

Promptly after the execution by the Trust and the Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions of Section 902, the Trust shall give notice thereof to the Holders of each Outstanding Security affected, in the manner provided for in Section 107, setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture.

Neither the Trust, any Affiliate of the Trust nor any of its Subsidiaries shall, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration, whether by way of interest, fee or otherwise, to any Holder for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or provisions of this Indenture or the Securities unless such consideration is offered to be paid or agreed to be paid to all Holders which so consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or amendment.

The Trust covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Holders that it will duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on the Securities in accordance with the terms of the Securities and this Indenture.

The Trust will maintain in The City of New York, an office or agency where Securities may be presented or surrendered for payment, where Securities may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Trust in respect of the Securities and this Indenture may be served. The Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee shall be such office or agency of the Trust, unless the Trust shall designate and maintain some other office or agency for one or more of such purposes. The Trust will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any change in the location of any such office or agency. If at any time the Trust shall fail to maintain any such required office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Trust hereby appoints the Trustee as its agent to receive all such presentations, surrenders, notices and demands.

The Trust may also from time to time designate one or more other offices or agencies (in or outside of The City of New York) where the Securities may be presented or surrendered for any or all such purposes and may from time to time rescind any such designation; provided, however, that no such designation or rescission shall in any manner relieve the Trust of its obligation to maintain an office or agency in The City of New York for such purposes. The Trust will give prompt written notice to the Trustee of any such designation or rescission and any change in the location of any such other office or agency.

If the Trust shall at any time act as its own Paying Agent, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or interest on any of the Securities, segregate and hold in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided and will promptly notify the Trustee of its action or failure so to act.

Whenever the Trust shall have one or more Paying Agents for the Securities, it will, on or before each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any, on), or interest on, any Securities, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if any) or interest so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the Trust will promptly notify the Trustee of such action or any failure so to act.

The Trust will cause each Paying Agent (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, that such Paying Agent will:

(1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or interest on Securities in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein provided;

(2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Trust (or any other obligor upon the Securities) in the making of any payment of principal (and premium, if any) or interest; and

(3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such Paying Agent.

The Trust may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Trust Order direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Trust or such Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which such sums were held by the Trust or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with respect to such sums.

Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the Trust, in trust for the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) or interest on any Security and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has become due and payable shall be paid to the Trust on Trust Request, or (if then held by the Trust) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Security shall thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Trust for payment thereof, and all liability of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Trust as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease; provided, however, that the Trustee or such Paying Agent, before being required to make any such repayment, may at the expense of the Trust cause to be published once, in a newspaper published in the English language, customarily published on each Business Day and of general circulation in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, notice that such money remains unclaimed and that, after a date specified therein, which shall not be less than 30 days from the date of such publication, any unclaimed balance of such money then remaining will be repaid to the Trust.

Subject to Article Eight, the Trust will do or cause to be done all things necessary to preserve and keep in full force and effect the existence, rights (charter and statutory) and franchises of the Trust and each Restricted Subsidiary; provided, however, that, subject to the provisions of this Indenture, the Trust shall not be required to preserve any such right or franchise, or the existence of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Bank and the Pledged Subsidiary), if the Board of Trustees shall determine that the preservation thereof is no longer desirable in the conduct of the business of the Trust and its Subsidiaries as a whole and that the loss thereof is not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

The Trust will pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged, before the same shall become delinquent, (a) all taxes, assessments and governmental charges levied or imposed upon the Trust or any Subsidiary or upon the income, profits or property of the Trust or any Subsidiary and (b) all lawful claims for labor, materials and supplies, which, if unpaid, might by law become a lien upon the property of the Trust or any Subsidiary; provided, however, that the Trust shall not be required to pay or discharge or cause to be paid or discharged any such tax, assessment, charge or claim whose amount, applicability or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings.

The Trust will cause all properties owned by the Trust or any Restricted Subsidiary or used or held for use in the conduct of its business or the business of any Restricted Subsidiary to be maintained and kept in good condition, repair and working order and supplied with all necessary equipment and will cause to be made all necessary repairs, renewals, replacements, betterments and improvements thereof, all as in the judgment of the Trust may be necessary so that the business carried on in connection therewith may be properly and advantageously conducted at all times; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 1006 shall prevent the Trust from discontinuing the maintenance of any of such properties if such discontinuance is, in the judgment of the Trust, desirable in the conduct of its business or the business of any Restricted Subsidiary and not disadvantageous in any material respect to the Holders.

The Trust will at all times keep all of its and its Subsidiaries’ properties which are of an insurable nature insured with insurers, believed by the Trust to be responsible, against loss or damage to the extent that property of similar character is usually so insured by corporations similarly situated and owning like properties.

(a) The Trust will deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the end of each fiscal quarter, a brief certificate from the principal executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer certifying as to his or her knowledge of the Trust’s compliance with all conditions and covenants under this Indenture. For purposes of this Section 1008(a), such compliance shall be determined without regard to any period of grace or requirement of notice under this Indenture.

(b) When any Default has occurred and is continuing under this Indenture, or if the trustee for or the holder of any other evidence of Indebtedness of the Trust or any Subsidiary gives any notice or takes any other action with respect to a claimed default by the Trust or any Subsidiary in the payment of an amount aggregating in excess of $10,000,000, the Trust shall deliver to the Trustee by registered or certified mail, by courier or by telegram, telex or facsimile transmission an officers’ certificate specifying such Default, notice or other action within five Business Days of its occurrence.

(a) The Trust will file on a timely basis with the Commission, to the extent such filings are accepted by the Commission, the annual, quarterly and other reports and other documents required by Section 13(a), 13(c) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act regardless of whether such Sections of the Exchange Act are applicable to the Trust. The Trust also will (i) file with the Trustee, and provide to each Holder of Securities upon request, copies of such reports and documents within 15 days after the date on which the Trust files such reports and documents with the Commission or the date on which the Trust would be required to file such reports and documents if the Trust were so required and (ii) if filing such reports and documents with the Commission is not accepted by the Commission or is prohibited under the Exchange Act, to supply copies of such reports and documents to any prospective holder of Securities promptly upon request and at the Trust’s cost.

(b) The Trust will provide to each Holder of Securities and any prospective holder of Securities, promptly upon request, and at the Trust’s cost, copies of the consolidated financial statements of the Bank and its subsidiaries on an annual and quarterly basis (audited in the case of such annual statements).

The Trust will not create, issue, assume, or otherwise in any other manner become directly or indirectly liable for the payment of, or otherwise incur (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including any Acquired Indebtedness), and the Trust will not permit any of its Non-Bank Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries to incur any Indebtedness (including any Acquired Indebtedness), other than Permitted Indebtedness, unless at the time of such incurrence the Trust’s Leverage Ratio after giving pro forma effect to (i) the incurrence of such Indebtedness and (all other Indebtedness incurred since the end of the most recently completed fiscal quarter of the Trust preceding the date of determination) and (if applicable) the application of the net proceeds therefrom (and from any such other Indebtedness), including to refinance other Indebtedness, as if such Indebtedness (and any such other Indebtedness) had been incurred on the first day of such four-quarter period and (ii) the acquisition (whether by purchase, merger or otherwise) or disposition (whether by sale, merger or otherwise) of any income producing real estate asset acquired or disposed of by the Trust or its Non-Bank Subsidiaries, as the case may be, since the first day of the four quarter period used in the calculation of the Trust’s Leverage Ratio, as if such incurrence, acquisition or disposition occurred on the first day of such period, would have been less than .55.

(a) The Trust will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, take any of the following actions:

(i) declare or pay any dividend on, or make any distribution to holders of, any shares of the Capital Stock of the Trust (other than dividends or distributions payable solely in shares of the Qualified Capital Stock of the Trust or in options, warrants or other rights to acquire such shares of Qualified Capital Stock);

(ii) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value, directly or indirectly, any Capital Stock of the Trust or any direct or indirect parent of the Trust or any options, warrants or other rights to acquire such Capital Stock;

(iii) declare or pay any dividend on, or make any distribution to holders of, any Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than with respect to (A) any such Capital Stock held by the Trust or any of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries, (B) any such Capital Stock of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or (C) to all holders of such Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary on a pro rata basis or, with respect to such dividend or distribution to the Trust or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, on a more advantageous basis) or purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value, any Capital Stock of any Subsidiary of the Trust (other than (A) any such Capital Stock of any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, (B) any Capital Stock held by the Bank or its Subsidiaries of any of their Subsidiaries or (C) any Capital Stock of any Securitization Entity that is a Subsidiary of the Bank);

(iv) make any principal payment on or repurchase, redeem, defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value, prior to any scheduled principal payment, scheduled sinking fund payment or maturity, any Subordinated Indebtedness;

(v) incur, create or assume any guarantee of Indebtedness of any Affiliate of the Trust (other than with respect to (A) guarantees of Indebtedness of any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries of the Trust by the Trust or by any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries), (B) guarantees of Indebtedness of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries by another Subsidiary of the Bank or any guarantee by the Bank of Indebtedness of its Subsidiaries), (C) guarantees of Indebtedness of the Trust by any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Bank and its Subsidiaries) or (D) guarantees of Indebtedness of the Bank or its Subsidiaries by any Affiliate of the Trust); or

(each of the foregoing actions described in (but not excluded from) clauses (i) through (vi), other than any such action that is a Permitted Payment (as defined below), is referred to herein as a “Restricted Payment”), provided that such Restricted Payments may be made by the Trust or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Bank and its Subsidiaries) if, after giving effect to the proposed Restricted Payment (the amount of any such Restricted Payment, if other than cash, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees of the Trust, whose determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board Resolution), (1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (2) the aggregate amount of all such Restricted Payments declared or made after the date of the Indenture shall not exceed the sum (without duplication) of:

(A) 50% of the aggregate Consolidated Net Income (Loss) of the Trust accrued on a cumulative basis during the period beginning on October 1, 2003 and ending on the last day of the Trust’s last fiscal quarter preceding the date of such proposed Restricted Payment for which financial statements are available (or, if such Consolidated Net Income (Loss) shall be a loss, minus 100% of such loss);

(B) the aggregate net cash proceeds received after the date of the Indenture by the Trust from the issuance or sale (other than to any of its Subsidiaries) of shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Trust or warrants, options or rights to purchase such shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Trust;

(D) the aggregate net cash proceeds received after the date of the Indenture by the Trust (other than from any of its Subsidiaries) upon the exercise of options, warrants or rights to purchase shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Trust;

provided that so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the provisions of paragraph (a) will not restrict the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof if, at such date of declaration, such declaration and payment were permitted by the provisions of paragraph (a).

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, the Trust and its Restricted Subsidiaries may take the following actions (each a “Permitted Payment”) so long as (other than with respect to (1) clause (iv) below to the extent such exchange is required by the OTS and (2) clause (vii) below with respect to the Investment of funds by the Bank and its Subsidiaries in the normal course of business) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i) the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any shares of Capital Stock of the Trust, in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of, a substantially concurrent issuance and sale (other than to any of its Subsidiaries) of, shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Trust;

(v) the purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement for value of any Subordinated Indebtedness (other than Redeemable Capital Stock) in exchange for or out of the net cash proceeds of a substantially concurrent issuance and sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Trust) of shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Trust;

(vi) the repurchase of any Subordinated Indebtedness at a purchase price not greater than 101% of the principal amount of such Subordinated Indebtedness in the

event of a Change of Control pursuant to a provision similar to that of Section 1021; provided that prior to such repurchase the Trust has made the Change of Control Offer as provided in Section 1021 with respect to the Securities and has repurchased all Securities validly tendered for payment in connection with such Change of Control Offer;

(viii) the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value, directly or indirectly, of any shares of Qualified Capital Stock of the Bank (other than Preferred Stock) by the Bank; and

(ix) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of Subordinated Indebtedness (other than Redeemable Capital Stock), in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of a substantially concurrent issue and sale (other than to a Subsidiary of the Trust) of new Subordinated Indebtedness (such a transaction, a “refinancing”); provided that any such new Indebtedness of the Trust (A) shall be in a principal amount that does not exceed an amount equal to the sum of (1) 101% of an amount equal to the principal amount so refinanced less any discount from the face amount of the Indebtedness to be refinanced expected to be deducted from the amount payable to the holders of such Indebtedness in connection with such refinancing, (2) the amount of any premium expected to be paid in connection with such refinancing pursuant to the terms of the Subordinated Indebtedness refinanced or the amount of any premium reasonably determined by the Trust as necessary to accomplish such refinancing by means of a tender offer, privately negotiated repurchase or otherwise and (3) the amount of expenses of the Trust incurred in connection with such refinancing; provided further that for purposes of this clause (A), the principal amount of any Indebtedness shall be deemed to mean the principal amount thereof or, if such Indebtedness provides for an amount less than the principal amount thereof to be due and payable upon a declaration of acceleration thereof, such lesser amount as of the date of determination; (B) (x) if such refinanced Subordinated Indebtedness has an Average Life to Stated Maturity shorter than that of the Securities or a final Stated Maturity earlier than the final Stated Maturity of the Securities, such new Indebtedness shall have an Average Life to Stated Maturity no shorter than the Average Life to Stated Maturity of such refinanced Indebtedness and a final Stated Maturity no earlier than the final stated Maturity of such refinanced Indebtedness or (y) in all other cases, each Stated Maturity of principal (or any required repurchase, redemption or sinking fund payments) of such new Indebtedness shall be on or after the final Stated Maturity of principal of the Securities; and (C) is (x) made expressly subordinate to the Securities to substantially the same extent as the Subordinated Indebtedness being refinanced or (y) expressly subordinated to such refinanced Subordinated Indebtedness.

proceeds shall not be added to the amount available for Restricted Payments under clause (2) of paragraph (a), and the actions described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (vii), (viii) and (ix) of this paragraph (b) shall be Restricted Payments that shall be permitted to be taken in accordance with this paragraph (b) and shall not reduce the amount that would otherwise be available for Restricted Payments under clause (2) of paragraph (a).

SECTION 1012. Limitation on Issuances and Sales of Preferred Stock of Restricted Subsidiaries.

The Trust will not permit any of its Non-Bank Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any Preferred Stock (other than to the Trust or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Trust).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, neither the Bank nor any of its Subsidiaries will make any distribution on or with respect to their respective shares of Capital Stock representing a return of capital to the holder thereof; provided, however, this provision shall not prohibit (1) any such distribution from a Subsidiary of the Bank to the Bank or a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Bank or (2) any such distribution by the Bank or a Subsidiary of the Bank that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Bank (x) to a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Bank and (y) to a Person that is an Affiliate of the Bank on a pro rata basis or a less advantageous basis; provided that this clause (2) shall not prohibit a transaction otherwise permitted pursuant to clause (b)(viii) of Section 1011.

(a) The Trust will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into any transaction or series of related transactions (including, without limitation, the sale, purchase, exchange or lease of assets, property or services) with any Affiliate of the Trust (except that the Bank and any of its Subsidiaries may enter into any transaction or series of related transactions with any Subsidiary of the Bank, and the Trust and any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Trust may enter into any transaction or series of related transactions with any other Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Trust without limitation under this covenant) unless (1) such transaction or series of related transactions is in writing on terms that are no less favorable to the Trust or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than would be available in a comparable transaction in an arm’s-length dealing with a Person that is not such an Affiliate or, in the absence of such a comparable transaction, on terms that in good faith would be offered to a Person that is not an Affiliate, (2) with respect to any transaction or series of related transactions in which the Trust and its Restricted Subsidiaries will receive or render value or incur obligations or make aggregate payments in excess of $10,000,000, the Trust delivers an Officers’ Certificate to the Trustee certifying that such transaction or series of related transactions complies with clause (1) above and such transaction or series of related transactions has been approved by a majority of the Disinterested Trustees of the Board of Trustees of the Trust and (3) with respect to any transaction or series of related transactions in which the Trust and its Restricted Subsidiaries will receive or render value or incur obligations or make aggregate payments in excess of $40,000,000, or in the event no members of the Board of Trustees of the Trust are Disinterested Trustees with respect to any

transaction or series of related transactions included in clause (2), the Trust delivers to the Trustee a written opinion of a nationally recognized expert with experience in appraising the terms and conditions of the type of transaction or series of transactions for which approval is required to the effect that the transaction or series of transactions are fair to the Trust and its Restricted Subsidiaries from a financial point of view; provided, however, that this covenant will not restrict (i) residential mortgage, credit card and other consumer loans to an Affiliate who is an officer, director or employee of the Trust or any of its Subsidiaries, (ii) any transaction or series of related transactions in which the total amount involved does not exceed $250,000, (iii) payment of legal expenses incurred on behalf of the Trust or its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that such expenses paid by the Bank and its Subsidiaries for or on behalf of the Trust or any other Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary of the Bank) shall not exceed $500,000 in any fiscal year, (iv) payment of construction and development fees incurred on behalf of the Trust or its Restricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed $2,000,000 in any fiscal year, after adjustment for annual increases in the consumer price index, as reported by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, (v) payment of financing fees of up to 2% of the aggregate principal amount of Retail Notes issued and sold after the date of the Indenture, (vi) transactions permitted under Section 1011, (vii) payment of up to $6,000,000 of Advisory Fees in any fiscal year, after adjustment for annual increases in the consumer price index, as reported by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, (viii) transactions entered into pursuant to Management Agreements, (ix) checking or other deposit products and investment management and advisory services and insurance products, in each case that the Bank and its subsidiaries customarily offer to their respective customers in the ordinary course of business, (x) guarantees under the Reimbursement Agreement, (xi) payments pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement and (xii) payments by the Trust to the Bank pursuant to the Capital Maintenance Agreement; provided, however, that Advisory Fees may only be paid so long as (A) the Trust does not hire employees to perform the services for which the Advisory Fees are paid and (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(b) If the Bank shall fail to comply with any of its Regulatory Capital Requirements set forth in clauses (i) and (ii)(x) of the definition thereof, then the Trust shall not and shall not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than the Bank or its Subsidiaries) to, directly or indirectly, make any payments pursuant to clauses (a)(iii), (iv) or (v) above, any Restricted Payments otherwise permitted by clause (a)(2) of Section 1011, any Permitted Payments, other than actions permitted by clauses (iv) and (ix) of paragraph (b) of Section 1011, or any Investments in any Person (other than Permitted Investments permitted by clauses (i) and (iv) of the definition thereof) or otherwise engage in any activity (including purchases, acquisition by lease and other acquisitions of additional real property and buildings) other than operating its then existing businesses in the ordinary course until the Bank shall have complied with such Regulatory Capital Requirements.

(c) The Trust will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to amend, modify or in any way alter the terms of the Management Agreements, the Reimbursement Agreement or the Advisory Agreement in a manner adverse to the interests of the Holders of the Securities, except as otherwise permitted by the Indenture.

The Trust will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of any Affiliate of the Trust (other than the Trust or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of the Trust) create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind on or with respect to any of its or their property or assets, including any shares of stock or indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary, whether owned at the date of the Indenture or thereafter acquired or any income, profits or proceeds therefrom, or assign or otherwise convey any right to receive income thereon; provided, however, that (a) the Bank may create, incur, assume or suffer to exist such Liens for the benefit of its Subsidiaries and Subsidiaries of the Bank may create, incur, assume or suffer to exist such Liens for the benefit of the Bank or any other Subsidiary of the Bank and (b) the Trust or any Restricted Subsidiary may create, incur, assume or suffer to exist such Liens in favor of the Bank as required by the OTS to secure the payment and performance of the Trust under the Tax Sharing Agreement to repay payments made by the Bank to the Trust; provided further that this covenant shall not apply to bankers’ and securities intermediaries’ Liens arising in the ordinary course.

SECTION 1019. Limitation on Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Major Real Estate Subsidiaries.

The Trust will not, and will not permit any of its Major Real Estate Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become operative any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any such Major Real Estate Subsidiary to (i) pay dividends, in cash or otherwise, or make any other distributions on or in respect of its Capital Stock (as a return of capital or otherwise) or any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits or (ii) pay any Indebtedness owed to the Trust or any Restricted Subsidiary, except for (A) such encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of (i) any agreement in effect on the date of the Indenture, (ii) applicable law, (iii) the Indenture, and (iv) any agreement that extends, renews, refinances or replaces the agreements containing the encumbrances or restrictions in the foregoing clause (i), provided that the terms and conditions of any such encumbrance or restriction are not materially less favorable to the Holders of the Securities than those under or pursuant to the agreement so extended, renewed, refinanced or replaced, and (B) any encumbrance or restriction that is not operative as of the date it is created, becomes operative only upon the occurrence of subsequent circumstances, and the Trust’s management believed, in good faith, at the time of the encumbrance’s or restriction’s creation that the occurrence of such subsequent circumstances was not probable.

(a) The Trust will at all times be the legal and beneficial owner of the Pledged Bank Stock and will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of any Pledged Bank Stock regardless

of when acquired. The Trust will at all times be the legal and beneficial owner in the aggregate of at least 66²/3% of the issued and outstanding common stock of the Bank and Voting Stock representing at least 66²/3% of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the Bank. All the Pledged Bank Stock and such shares of the common stock of the Bank and Voting Stock representing at least 66²/3% of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the Bank as are necessary to ensure that the Trust beneficially and legally owns 66²/3% of the issued and outstanding Voting Stock and common stock of the Bank will be referred to as “Restricted Shares.”

(b) The Trust will not create or permit to exist any Lien on any Restricted Shares directly owned by it, other than the Lien of the Indenture.

(a) If a Change of Control shall occur at any time, then each Holder of Securities will have the right to require that the Trust purchase such Holder’s Securities, in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000, at a purchase price (the “Change of Control Purchase Price”) in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Purchase Date”), pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”). The Change of Control Offer shall remain open until the close of business on the Change of Control Purchase Date or such later date as may be necessary for the Trust to comply with requirements under the Exchange Act.

(b) Within 30 days following any Change of Control, the Trust shall notify the Trustee thereof and give written notice of such Change of Control to each Holder of Securities by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of such Holder appearing in the Security Register, stating, among other things, (i) that the Change of Control has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Trust to repurchase such Holder’s Securities at the Change of Control Purchase Price; (ii) the circumstances and relevant facts regarding such Change in Control (including but not limited to information with respect to pro forma historical income, cash flow and capitalization after giving effect to such Change in Control); (iii) the Change of Control Purchase Date, which shall be a Business Day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, or such later date as is necessary to comply with requirements under the Exchange Act or any applicable securities laws or regulations; (iv) that any Security not tendered will continue to accrue interest; (v) that, unless the Trust defaults in the payment of the Change of Control Purchase Price, any Securities accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Purchase Date; and (vi) the instructions a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities repurchased in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section

(c) Holders electing to have Securities purchased will be required to surrender such Securities to the Trust at the address specified in the notice at least five Business Days prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date. Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Trust receives, not later than three Business Days prior to the Change of Control Purchase Date,

a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Securities delivered for purchase by the Holder as to which his election is to be withdrawn and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Securities purchased. Holders whose Securities are purchased only in part will be issued new Securities equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered.

(d) The Trust will comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws and regulations in connection with a Change of Control Offer.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Substitution, made in compliance with the provisions of this Indenture, will not constitute a Change of Control.

The Trust will use its best efforts to obtain a rating on the Securities by S&P and Moody’s on or before June 30, 2004.

(a) On and after the Substitution Date, the New Obligor will cause the B.F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust to deposit, or cause to be deposited, in a collateral account in favor of the New Obligor, that portion (the “Tax Collateral”) of any Tax Sharing Payment made by the Bank and its subsidiaries to the B.F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust and its subsidiaries (other than the Bank and its subsidiaries), in an amount equal to the benefit, if any, under the Tax Sharing Agreement, accruing to the New Obligor as a result of interest expense on the Securities). The New Obligor will have a first priority security interest in the Tax Collateral until the time such amounts are paid to the New Obligor; provided that so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such amounts on deposit may be used, at the written direction of the New Obligor, for the payment of interest on the Securities.

(b) On and after the Substitution Date, the New Obligor will, will cause the B.F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust to or will cause any other appropriate person to, at any time and from time to time at the expense of the B.F. Saul Real Estate Investment Trust, promptly give, execute, deliver, file and/or record any financing statement, notice, instruments, certificates and other documents and take all further action that may be necessary or that the New Obligor or the Trustee may reasonably request in order to create, preserve, perfect or validate the first priority security interest in the Tax Collateral.

The Trust will not amend, modify, or change in any manner or permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to amend, modify or change in any manner, any term or condition of its or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries’ certificates of incorporation, charters, bylaws or other similar documents or instruments, except amendments, modifications or changes that (i) would not have an adverse effect on the rights and remedies of the Trustee or the Holders of the Securities, (ii) are required by this Indenture or (iii) are required by law.

The Trust may omit in any particular instance to comply with any term, provision or condition set forth in Sections 1007 through 1019, inclusive or Section 1022, if before or after the time for such compliance the Holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Securities, by Act of such Holders, waive such compliance in such instance with such term, provision or condition, but no such waiver shall extend to or affect such term, provision or condition except to the extent so expressly waived, and, until such waiver shall become effective, the obligations of the Trust, the Restricted Subsidiaries and the duties of the Trustee in respect of any such term, provision or condition shall remain in full force and effect.

The Securities will be redeemable at the option of the Trust, as a whole or from time to time in part, subject to the conditions and at the Redemption Prices specified in the form of Security, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant record dates to receive interest due on an Interest Payment Date), on the Redemption Date.

Redemption of Securities at the election of the Trust or otherwise, as permitted or required by any provision of this Indenture, shall be made in accordance with such provision and this Article Eleven.

The election of the Trust to redeem any Securities pursuant to Section 1101 shall be evidenced by a Board Resolution. In case of any redemption at the election of the Trust, the Trust shall, at least 60 days prior to the Redemption Date fixed by the Trust (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Securities to be redeemed and shall deliver to the Trustee such documentation and records as shall enable the Trustee to select the Securities to be redeemed pursuant to Section 1104.

If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the particular Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 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 portions of the principal of Securities; provided, however, that no such partial redemption shall reduce the portion of the principal amount of a Security not redeemed to less than $1,000.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Trust 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 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 which has been or is to be redeemed.

Notice of redemption shall be given in the manner provided for in Section 107 not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date, to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed.

(3) if less than all Outstanding Securities are to be redeemed, the identification (and, in the case of a partial redemption, the principal amounts) of the particular Securities to be redeemed,

(4) that on the Redemption Date the Redemption Price (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date payable as provided in Section 1107) will become due and payable upon each such Security, or the portion thereof, to be redeemed, and that interest thereon will cease to accrue on and after said date, and

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

Notice of redemption of Securities to be redeemed at the election of the Trust shall be given by the Trust or, at the Trust’s request, by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the Trust.

Prior to any Redemption Date, the Trust shall deposit with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the Trust is acting as its own Paying Agent, segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 1003) an amount of money sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of, and (except if the Redemption Date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued interest on, all the Securities which are to be redeemed on that date.

Notice of redemption having been given as aforesaid, the Securities so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the Redemption Price therein specified (together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date), and from and after such date (unless the Trust shall default in the payment of the Redemption Price and accrued interest) such Securities shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of any such Security for redemption in accordance with said notice, such Security shall be paid by the Trust at the Redemption Price, together with accrued interest, if any, to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that installments of interest whose Stated Maturity is on or prior to the Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Securities, or one or more Predecessor Securities, registered as such at the close of business on the relevant Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 309.

If any Security called for redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the Securities.

Any Security which is to be redeemed only in part shall be surrendered at the office or agency of the Trust maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 1002 (with, if the Trust or the Trustee so requires, due endorsement by, or a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trust and the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing), and the Trust shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Security without service charge, a new Security or Securities, of any authorized denomination as requested by such Holder, in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion of the principal of the Security so surrendered.

The Trust grants to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, a security interest in all its present or future right, title and interest in and to the following (the “Collateral”):

(a) the Custodian Accounts representing the Bank Collateral Account, the Tax Payment Collateral Account, when established, and, from and after the Substitution, the Bank Contribution Collateral Account;

(b) the shares of Bank Stock from time to time deposited to the Bank Collateral Account pursuant to this Article Twelve (the “Pledged Bank Stock”), together with the certificates representing the Pledged Bank Stock, and, subject to Section 1207(a), all dividends, cash, instruments and other property from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any or all of such Pledged Bank Stock;

(c) cash and U.S. Government Securities and Financial Assets deposited to a Custodian Account from time to time pursuant to Section 1203, Certificates of Deposit (whether or not they are deemed to be instruments) in which such Collateral (or proceeds thereof) may be invested from time to time, all other investments from time to time pursuant to Section 1203(e), all notes, checks and other instruments and all Certificates of Deposit (whether or not they are deemed to be instruments) from time to time held in a Custodian Account in substitution for or in addition to or upon payment or collection of any or all of the foregoing and, subject to Section 1207(a), all interest, dividends, cash, instruments and other property and proceeds from time to time received, receivable or otherwise distributed in respect of or in exchange for any of the foregoing;

(d) all proceeds of any and all of the foregoing (including without limitation proceeds constituting property of the types described above); and

This Indenture secures the payment of all obligations of the Trust now or hereafter existing under this Indenture and the Securities, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (collectively, the “Secured Obligations”). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Indenture secures the payment of all amounts that constitute part of the Secured Obligations and would be owed by the Trust but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of a bankruptcy, reorganization or similar proceeding involving the Trust.

(a) On the date hereof, the Trust will deposit to the Bank Collateral Account, as Collateral, to be credited to and accounted for in the Bank Collateral Account, certificates evidencing all Bank Stock owned legally or beneficially by the Trust on such date, indorsed in blank or accompanied by duly executed instruments of indorsement in blank, all in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee.

(b) The Trust may, on any date, deposit to the Bank Collateral Account, as additional Collateral, to be credited to and accounted for in the Bank Collateral Account, cash, U.S. Government Securities, additional shares of Bank Stock and/or the Trust’s Security Entitlements with respect to any or all of the foregoing.

At the time of any deposit of Bank Stock pursuant to this subsection (b), the Trust shall deliver to the Custodian the same certificates and documents with respect thereto as are referred to in Section 1203(a) with respect to Bank Stock delivered to the Custodian on the date hereof.

(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default, the Trust will deposit, or cause to be deposited, to the Tax Payment Collateral Account, as additional Collateral (the “Tax Payment Collateral”), to be credited to and accounted for in the Tax Payment Collateral Account, cash, U.S. Government Securities and/or the Trust’s Security Entitlements with respect to any or all of the foregoing, in an aggregate amount equal to the Benefit Amount of each Tax Sharing Payment to be made by the Bank and its subsidiaries to the Trust and its subsidiaries (other than the Bank and its subsidiaries) pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement. The Trustee will have a first priority lien on and security interest in the Tax Payment Collateral and the Tax Payment Collateral Account to secure the Secured Obligations. If no Default or Event of Default is continuing and the Tax Payment Collateral has not been applied to the Secured Obligations pursuant to the terms of this Indenture or applied pursuant to the terms of Section 1207(c), such Tax Payment Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Indenture and the Trustee shall direct that such Collateral be returned to the Trust. For purposes of this Section 1203(c) “Benefit Amount” means, with respect to any Tax Sharing Payment, an amount equal to the tax benefit to the Affiliated Group (as defined in the definition of Tax Sharing Agreement) of the interest expense on the Securities for the period to which such Tax Sharing Payment relates.

(d) The Trust will, on the Substitution Date, and immediately prior to the Substitution, deposit or cause to be deposited to the Bank Contribution Collateral Account established by the New Obligor with the Custodian, as additional Collateral (the “Bank Contribution Collateral”), to be credited to and accounted for in the Bank Contribution Collateral Account, cash in an aggregate amount equal to the Bank Contribution Amount; provided, however, if the Bank Contribution is paid by the Trust to the Bank at the Substitution Date in accordance with and pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, no deposit will be required pursuant to this Section 1203(d) and the establishment of a Bank Contribution Collateral Account shall not be required pursuant to Section 1204(b). The Trustee will have a first priority lien on and security interest in the Bank Contribution Collateral and the Bank Contribution Collateral Account to secure the Secured Obligations.

(e) The Trust may from time to time direct the Trustee to exchange, or cause to be exchanged, some of the Pledged Bank Stock for other Collateral to be provided by the Trust on the basis specified in this Section 1203(e) and to release, or cause to be released, the Pledged Bank Stock so exchanged from the Lien of this Indenture. Such direction shall specify the number of shares of Pledged Bank Stock to be exchanged and upon such exchange to be released from the Lien of this Indenture. On the date on which it shall deliver such direction to the Trustee, the Trust will deposit, or cause to be deposited, to the Bank Collateral Account, as additional Collateral, to be credited to and accounted for in the Bank Collateral Account, cash, U.S. Government Securities and/or the Trust’s Security Entitlements with respect to any or all of the foregoing, the aggregate Collateral Value of which as of such date is at least equal to $58,000 for each share of Pledged Bank Stock (adjusted to reflect any splits or combinations of Bank Stock after the date hereof) that the Trust has directed the Trustee to exchange for other Collateral.

Promptly following its receipt of such direction, such substitute Collateral, the Officers’ Certificate required by Section 1203(g), the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 1203(h) and any documents required by Sections 103 and 1213, and, if no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee will, or will cause the Custodian to, (if necessary, after the Custodian has received from the Bank separate certificates evidencing the Bank Stock to be delivered to the Trust and the Bank Stock that will continue to be Pledged Bank Stock in exchange for the certificates evidencing the Pledged Bank Stock) deliver to the Trust certificates evidencing the number of shares of Pledged Bank Stock that the Trust shall have directed the Trustee to release from the Lien of this Indenture. Any shares so released shall no longer be included in the Pledged Bank Stock.

Collateral deposited to the Bank Collateral Account under this subsection (e) shall be credited to and accounted for in the Bank Collateral Account and shall not be released from the Lien of this Indenture except pursuant to Section 1207(a) or Section 1212.

(f) The Trust may, from time to time, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, direct the Custodian

(i) to invest cash in the Bank Collateral Account, the Bank Contribution Collateral Account and the Tax Payment Collateral Account, as the case may be, in Certificates of Deposit and/or U.S. Government Securities and to account for such investments in the applicable account, and

(ii) to sell Certificates of Deposit and U.S. Government Securities in, and account for the proceeds of such sale in, the Bank Collateral Account, the Bank Contribution Collateral Account and the Tax Payment Collateral Account, as the case may be.

Any brokerage costs and other fees or expenses related to such sale or investment and amounts relating to accrued or accreted interest required to be paid to purchase any investment shall be paid by the Trust at the time of its direction to the Custodian pursuant to this subsection (f) and not from the Collateral. If

(x) the principal amount paid to the applicable Custodian Account on the maturity of any Certificate of Deposit or U.S. Government Security in the Bank Collateral Account, the Bank Contribution Collateral Account or the Tax Payment Collateral Account, as the case may be, shall be less than the purchase price therefor paid by the Custodian and attributable to principal, or

(y) the price paid to the applicable Custodian Account on the sale of any Certificate of Deposit or U.S. Government Security in the Bank Collateral Account, the Bank Contribution Collateral Account or the Tax Payment Collateral Account, as the case may be, attributable to the principal amount thereof shall be less than the purchase price therefor paid by the Custodian and attributable to principal

(such difference being a “Sale Deficit Amount”), the Trustee will so notify the Trust and the Trust, within five days after its receipt from the Trustee of such notice, will deposit or cause to be deposited to, to be credited to and accounted for in the Bank Collateral Account, the Bank Contribution Collateral Account or the Tax Payment Collateral Account, as the case may be, as additional Collateral, cash or U.S. Government Securities, and/or the Trust’s securities Entitlements with respect to any or all of the foregoing, the aggregate Collateral Value of which is at least equal to such Sale Deficit Amount. Any direction by the Trust to the Custodian pursuant to this subsection (f) shall specify the investments to be made or sold by the Custodian and account from which such investments are to be made or sold.

Any investments and any proceeds of any sale of Collateral pursuant to this subsection (f) shall be recorded or held in the same account as the Collateral that was used to purchase such investment or that was sold.

Any losses on investments of Collateral, or on Collateral deposited to any Custodian Account, shall be for the account of the Trust.

(g) On each date (other than the date hereof) on which the Trust shall deposit Collateral to a Custodian Account, and as a condition to the release, exchange, sale or investment of any Collateral, the Trust will deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate, dated the date of such deposit or of any direction to effect any such release, exchange, sale or investment (as applicable), certifying, as of the date of such Officers’ Certificate, to the effect required by Section 103 and further certifying as follows:

(i) other than with respect to a deposit of Collateral, that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after giving effect to any exchange, sale, investment or release of Collateral to occur as of such date;

(ii) if such Officers’ Certificate is being delivered in connection with the deposit of any Collateral,

(A) to the effect set forth in Sections 1205(a), (b) and (c) and, if the Collateral being deposited includes Bank Stock, the first sentence of Section 1205(d),

(B) (1) if such Collateral consists of cash, that it has traced the source of such cash (describing in reasonable detail such source) and whether or not such cash constitutes direct or indirect proceeds of the issue and sale of the Securities, and

(2) if such Collateral consists of Bank Stock or U.S. Government Securities, that it has traced the source of funds used for the purchase of such Collateral (and describing in reasonable detail the source of such funds) and whether or not such funds constitute the direct or indirect proceeds of the issue and sale of the Securities;

(iii) if such Officers’ Certificate is being delivered in connection with the deposit of any Collateral to remedy a Sale Deficit Amount, that the aggregate Collateral Value, as of the date of such Officers’ Certificate, of the cash and U.S. Government Securities and/or the Trust’s Security Entitlements with respect thereto being deposited is at least equal to the Sale Deficit Amount then being remedied;

(iv) if such Officers’ Certificate is being delivered in connection with a direction that the Trustee exchange Pledged Bank Stock for other Collateral, as to the aggregate number of shares of Voting Stock of the Bank and Bank Common Stock outstanding as of the date of such Officers’ Certificate and that, immediately following the release of such Pledged Bank Stock, the Pledged Bank Stock will constitute at least 66²/3% of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the Bank and at least 66²/3% of such aggregate number of shares of outstanding Bank Common Stock.

(h) On each date on which the Trust shall deliver Collateral pursuant to this Section 1203, the Trust will deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel with respect to such Collateral, substantially to the effect set forth in Section 1213(c).

(i) Any Collateral released by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 1203 shall be assigned, transferred and delivered to the Trust at the Trust’s expense, together with any necessary assignment or endorsement, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever. The Trustee shall, in connection with any such release, at the request and expense of the Trust, execute and deliver to the Trust an instrument or instruments acknowledging the release of such Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture.

(j) In connection with any delivery of Collateral pursuant to this Section 1203, the Trust will direct the Custodian to credit and to record such Collateral in the Bank Collateral Account, the Bank Contribution Collateral Account or the Tax Payment Collateral Account as required by this Indenture.

(k) Pursuant to a Security, Custodian and Control Agreement with a Custodian and the Trustee, on terms and conditions substantially similar to those of the Security, Custodian and Control Agreement, dated as of May 26, 1998 by and among the Trust, Bankers Trust Company and Norwest Bank Minnesota, as Trustee, the Trust shall establish the Tax Payment Collateral Account with the Custodian at a date no later than September 1, 2004 and, upon such establishment, furnish an Opinion of Counsel to the Trustee to the effect that a perfected security interest, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders, in the Tax Payment Collateral Account has been established as contemplated hereby, and, thereafter, maintain, without interruption, such Tax Payment Collateral Account hereunder.

(a) If there shall occur a change in applicable law or regulations regarding the steps necessary to obtain and maintain a perfected security interest in U.S. Government Securities or any other Collateral, or if there is Collateral for which the procedures set forth in this Article Twelve, the applicable Custodian Agreement and any related agreement of the Custodian with respect to control of such Custodian Account are not effective to perfect a security interest, immediately upon the Trust having knowledge thereof the Trust will so notify the Trustee and will deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel setting forth the steps necessary for the Trustee to obtain and maintain such a perfected security interest in the Collateral affected by such change or for which the foregoing procedures are not effective to perfect a security interest, and the Trustee, instead of the actions set forth in this Article Twelve, the applicable Custodian Agreement and any related agreement of the Custodian with respect to control of such Custodian Account, shall take such other action, as specified in such Opinion of Counsel, as will create and maintain such perfected security interest.

(b) The Trust will establish with the Custodian the Custodian Accounts (or one or more Custodian Accounts and sub-accounts; if any sub-account is established, references herein to an account shall include such sub-account), (i) the “Bank Collateral Account”, (ii) at the time of the Substitution, if there is Bank Contribution Collateral, the “Bank Contribution Collateral Account”, and (iii) the “Tax Payment Collateral Account”, in which all of the Collateral held, directly or indirectly, by the Custodian shall be credited, recorded and deposited. Each Custodian Account shall be established in the name of the Trust. Except as provided in this Indenture, no Collateral shall be paid, delivered or released to or for the account of, or withdrawn by or for the account of, the Trust or any other Person from such account.

(c) The Trustee shall not be obligated to, and shall not, accept any Collateral from the Trust if it has knowledge of or has been advised by the Trust of any adverse claim with respect thereto, that it is overdue or has been dishonored or of any defense against or claim to it on the part of any Person.

(d) If and to the extent that any “money” (within the meaning of Section 9-313 of the UCC) on deposit in a Custodian Account is not a Financial Asset held by the Custodian as a Securities Intermediary under the applicable Custodian Agreement, the Trust shall cause the Custodian, for the benefit of the Trustee, to maintain possession and control of such money for the benefit of the Trustee.

(a) As of the time of its deposit of any Collateral in a Custodian Account pursuant to this Indenture it will be the sole beneficial owner of such Collateral, free and clear of any Lien, except for the Lien of this Indenture.

(b) It has full power, authority and legal right to pledge all Collateral in which a security interest is or shall be granted by it pursuant to this Indenture.

(c) Upon the credit and deposit of any Collateral to a Custodian Account (indorsed in blank or accompanied by a duly executed indorsement in blank, in the case of certificated securities), the crediting of such account by the Custodian with respect to such Collateral and compliance by the Custodian with the Custodian Agreement and the related agreement of the Custodian with respect to control of such Custodian Account, the Trustee will have a valid and perfected first-priority Lien on such Collateral, securing payment of the Secured Obligations.

(d) The shares of Bank Stock owned by the Trust have been duly authorized, are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. As of the date of this Indenture (i) there are 10,000,000 shares of Bank Stock authorized and 10,000 shares of Bank Stock outstanding; (ii) the Bank has no Voting Stock or Bank Common Stock except for Bank Stock; (iii) there are no outstanding options, warrants, calls, convertible securities or commitments of any character relating to any authorized and unissued Bank Stock; (iv) the Trust owns 8,000 shares of Bank Stock; and (v) such shares constitute 80% of all shares of Bank Stock issued and outstanding.

(e) No authorization, approval or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any governmental authority or regulatory body is required under existing laws and regulations on the date hereof

(i) for the grant or perfection of the security interests contemplated hereby or for the execution, delivery or performance of this Indenture by the Trust, except as may be set forth in Section 1204 with respect to actions to be taken by the Trustee, the Custodian or another Securities Intermediary holding Collateral and except for the filings referred to in Section 1206(b) that may be required in the future, or

(ii) for the exercise by the Trustee of the voting or other rights provided for in this Indenture or its rights and remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to this Indenture, except

(A) as may be required in connection with the disposition of Collateral by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally, and

(B) with respect to Pledged Bank Stock, (i) for authorizations, approvals, other actions, notices and filings that may be required pursuant to 12 U.S.C. 1817(j), 12 U.S.C. 1467a, 12 C.F.R. Part 563g, 12 C.F.R. 567.13 or 12 C.F.R. 574, or any successor laws or regulations, (ii) for the filing of copies of materials pursuant to 16 C.F.R. Section 802.8(b)(1) in the event of a sale by the Trustee of the Pledged Bank Stock to one or more purchasers required to file a notice of change of control with the OTS pursuant to 12 U.S.C. Section 1817(j) and 12 C.F.R. Section 574.3(b) and (iii) for the filing of a pre-merger notification pursuant to 15 U.S.C.

Section 18a and 16 C.F.R. Part 803 in the case of any purchaser of 15% or more of the Pledged Bank Stock which purchaser would not be required to obtain OTS approval for such purchase pursuant to 12 U.S.C. Section 1817(j), 12 U.S.C. 1467a or 12 C.F.R. Part 574.

(f) The chief executive office of the Trust is located at 7501 Wisconsin Avenue, Bethesda, Maryland 20814. The Trust uses no trade name in connection with its operations.

(a) The Trust, at any time and from time to time, at its expense, will promptly give, execute, deliver, file and/or record any financing statement, notice, instruments, certificates and other documents and take all further action that may be necessary or that the Trustee may reasonably request in order to create, preserve, perfect or validate the first-priority security interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable the Trustee to exercise and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.

(b) Without limitation of the foregoing, the Trust will file or cause to be filed, promptly following the date of this Indenture, in the appropriate filing offices in the State of Maryland, Uniform Commercial Code financing statements adequately describing the Collateral and, thereafter, such renewals, amendments or continuations thereof or such additional financing statements in such additional offices in such jurisdictions or in the appropriate filing offices in such additional jurisdictions as shall be required from time to time under the Uniform Commercial Code in order to perfect and to continue the perfection of the security interest in the Collateral.

(a) So long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trust shall be entitled to receive, free of the Lien of this Indenture, all cash dividends and distributions (other than any dividends or distributions constituting a return of capital) and interest paid in respect of the Collateral held in the Bank Collateral Account, and the Trustee, promptly upon its receipt thereof, if the same are not paid directly to the Trust or the Custodian, shall deliver the same to the Trust. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default the Trustee shall be entitled to retain in the applicable Custodian Account and subject to the Lien of this Indenture all such dividends, distributions and interest as additional Collateral, and all such dividends, other distributions and interest shall, if received by the Trust, be received in trust for the benefit of the Trustee, be segregated from the other property or funds of the Trust, and be forthwith deposited to the applicable Custodian Account to be retained as additional Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement or assignment); provided that, if such Default or Event of Default, and all other Defaults or Events of Default that shall have thereafter occurred, shall be cured prior to the acceleration of the Securities or the exercise by the Trustee or the Holders of any other remedies hereunder, any such dividends, distributions and interest then being held as additional Collateral shall be distributed to the Trust, free of the Lien of this Indenture, promptly following the Trust’s request therefor. Dividends and distributions that constitute a return of capital and interest that is to be retained as additional Collateral shall be retained in the Custodian Account holding the underlying security, investment, instrument or account on which such dividend or distribution is made or such interest is earned.

(b) The Trustee shall be entitled to retain in the applicable Custodian Account and subject to the Lien of this Indenture all cash dividends and distributions and interest paid in respect of the Collateral held in the Tax Payment Collateral Account and the Bank Contribution Collateral Account as additional Collateral, and all such dividends and other distributions and interest shall, if received by the Trust, be received in trust for the benefit of the Trustee, be segregated from the other property or funds of the Trust, and be forthwith deposited to the applicable Custodian Account to be retained as additional Collateral (with any necessary endorsement or assignment). Thereafter such additional Collateral will be subject to the same provisions and requirements of this Indenture as the other Collateral on deposit in such Custodian Account.

(c) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trust shall be entitled to direct the Trustee and the Custodian in writing (or to cause the Trustee to direct the Custodian) to use the Collateral held in the Bank Contribution Collateral Account and the Tax Payment Collateral Account to pay interest on the Securities on any Interest Payment Date and the Trustee, upon receipt of such written direction, shall cause such Collateral to be sold and the proceeds thereof to be used to pay such interest.

(d) The Trust shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights relating to Collateral or any part thereof for any purpose; provided that no vote shall be cast, and no consent, waiver or ratification given or action taken, that would be inconsistent with or violate Section 1214 or any other provision of this Indenture or the Securities; and provided further that

(i) with respect to Collateral other than Pledged Bank Stock, the Trust shall no longer have such rights, and such rights shall be vested in the Trustee, upon notice from the Trustee to the Trust following the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and

(ii) with respect to Pledged Bank Stock, the Trust shall no longer have such rights, and such rights shall be vested in the Trustee, on five-day’s advance notice from the Trustee to the Trust following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and subject to the satisfaction of any regulatory requirements.

(e) In order to permit the Trustee to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it may be entitled to exercise pursuant to Section 1207(d), and to receive all dividends and distributions that it may be entitled to receive under Section 1207(a), the Trust will, upon written notice from the Trustee, from time to time execute and deliver to the Trustee such proxies and other instruments as the Trustee may reasonably request.

The Trust appoints the Trustee as its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead and in its name or otherwise, from time to time in the Trustee’s discretion, to take any action and to execute any instrument which the Trustee may deem necessary or advisable in order to accomplish the purposes of this Article Twelve, including to receive, endorse and collect all instruments made payable to the Trust representing any dividend, interest payment or other distribution in respect of the Collateral or any part thereof and to give full discharge for the same. This power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable.

If the Trust fails to perform any agreement contained in this Article Twelve, the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, itself perform, or cause performance of, such agreement, and the expenses of the Trustee incurred in connection therewith shall be payable by the Trust under Section 607.

If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee may exercise in respect of the Collateral, subject, in the case of Pledged Bank Stock, to the satisfaction of any regulatory requirements, in addition to other rights and remedies provided for herein or otherwise available to it, all the rights and remedies provided a secured party upon the default of a debtor under the Uniform Commercial Code at that time, and the Trustee may also, without notice except as specified below, sell the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Trustee’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, upon such terms as the Trustee may determine to be commercially reasonable, and the Trustee or any Holder may be the purchaser of any or all of the Collateral so sold and, subject to any applicable requirements of Section 9-617 of the Uniform Commercial Code, thereafter hold the same, absolutely, free from any right or claim of whatsoever kind. The Trust agrees that, to the extent notice of sale shall be required by law, at least 30 days’ notice to it (in the case of Pledged Bank Stock) or 10 days’ notice to it (in the case of any other Collateral) of the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made shall constitute reasonable notification. The Trustee shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Trustee may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. The Trustee shall incur no liability as a result of the sale of the Collateral, or any part thereof, at any private sale conducted in a commercially reasonable manner and in accordance with Section 9-610 of the Uniform Commercial Code and any other applicable legal requirements. The Trust hereby waives any claims against the Trustee arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold at such a private sale was less than the price which might have been obtained at the public sale, even if the Trustee accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree.

The Trust recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Trustee may be compelled, with respect to any sale of certain of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. The Trust acknowledges and agrees that any such sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. The Trustee shall be under no obligation to delay the sale of any of the Pledged Shares for the period of time necessary to permit the Trust to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act, or under applicable state securities laws, even if the Trust would agree to do so.

In connection with the exercise of its rights and remedies under this Article Twelve or otherwise available to it, the Trustee is authorized to file such notices, applications and filings as may be necessary or appropriate in respect of the Pledged Bank Stock.

The Trustee is not authorized or empowered to take any action or exercise any rights or remedies under this Article Twelve or otherwise available to it that would expose any Holder to liability under the Capital Maintenance Agreement or any capital restoration plan

guaranty applicable to the Bank. Neither this Indenture, nor the exercise by the Trustee or any Holder of any remedies hereunder, nor the acquisition of the Pledged Bank Stock by the Trustee or any other Person in any foreclosure sale or otherwise, is intended to cause the Trustee, any Holder or any other Person to have any successor liability under the Capital Maintenance Agreement.

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after the acceleration of the Securities pursuant to Section 502 (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded) any cash held as Collateral and all cash proceeds received in respect of any sale of, collection from, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral, shall be applied by the Trustee in the manner specified in Section 506.

Except as provided in Section 1203 and 1207(a) and this Section 1212, this Indenture shall create a continuing Lien on the Collateral that shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of all Secured Obligations, (b) be binding upon the Trust and its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of the Trustee and its successors, transferees and assigns.

(a) satisfaction by the Trust of the conditions set forth in Article Four to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture,

the security interests created under this Indenture shall terminate, and the Trustee shall, at the request and expense of the Trust, cause to be assigned, transferred and delivered, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, any remaining Collateral, to or on the order of the Trust and shall execute and deliver to the Trust an instrument or instruments acknowledging the release of such Collateral from the Lien of this Indenture.

(a) The Trust will furnish to the Trustee, a certificate or opinion of an engineer, appraiser or other expert as to the fair value:

(i) of any property or securities to be released from the Lien of this Indenture, which certificate or opinion shall state that in the opinion of the Person making the same the proposed release will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions thereof, and which certificate or opinion shall be made by an independent

engineer, appraiser or other expert, if the fair value of such property or securities and of all other property or securities released since the commencement of the then-current calendar year, as set forth in the certificates or opinions required by this subsection (i), is 10% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding; but such a certificate or opinion of an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert shall not be required in the case of any release of property or securities, if the fair value thereof as set forth in the certificate or opinion required by this subsection (i) is less than $25,000 or less than 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding;

(ii) to the Trust of any securities, the deposit of which is to be made the basis for the withdrawal of cash constituting a part of the trust estate or the release of property or securities subject to the Lien of this Indenture, and if the fair value to the Trust of such securities and of all other such securities made the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then current calendar year, as set forth in the certificates or opinions required by this subsection (ii), is 10% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding, such certificate or opinion shall be made by an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert; but such certificate of an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert shall not be required with respect to any securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof to the Trust as set forth in the certificate or opinion required by this subsection (ii) is less than $25,000 or less than 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding; and

(iii) to the Trust of any property the subjection of which to the Lien of this Indenture is to be made the basis for the withdrawal of cash constituting a part of the trust estate, or the release of property or securities subject to the Lien of this Indenture, and if

(A) within six months prior to the date of acquisition thereof by the Trust, such property has been used or operated by a person or persons other than such obligor, in a business similar to that in which it has been or is to be used or operated by the Trust, and

(B ) the fair value to the Trust of such property as set forth in such certificate or opinion is not less than $25,000 and not less than 1% of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding,

such certificate or opinion shall be made by an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert.

Any such certificate or opinion may be made by an officer or employee of the Trust who is duly authorized to make such certificates or opinions by the Trust from time to time, except in cases in which this subsection (a) requires that such certificate or opinion be made by an independent person. In such cases, such certificate or opinion shall be made by an independent engineer, appraiser or other expert selected or approved by the Trustee in the exercise of reasonable care.

At the time it shall deliver to the Trustee any certificate pursuant to clause (i) of this subsection (a), the Trust also shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate as to whether or not a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is at such time continuing.

(b) Promptly after the execution and delivery of this Indenture, the Trust will deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either stating that in the opinion of such counsel this Indenture has been properly recorded and filed so as to make effective the Lien intended to be created hereby, and reciting the details of such action, or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is necessary to make such Lien effective.

(c) Not later than the 120th day after the end of each of its fiscal years, beginning with its fiscal year ending in 2004, the Trust will deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel either stating that in the opinion of such counsel such action has been taken with respect to the recording, filing, re-recording and refiling of this Indenture as is necessary to maintain the Lien of this Indenture, and reciting the details of such action, or stating that in the opinion of such counsel no such action is necessary to maintain such Lien. Such Opinion of Counsel shall also state such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to obtain and maintain a perfected security interest in the Collateral, if such actions are other than as provided in this Indenture, or shall state that no such actions shall be necessary or appropriate other than as provided in this Indenture.

Until such time as the Secured Obligations shall have been paid in full, the Trust shall

(a) not sell, assign (by operation of law or otherwise) or otherwise dispose of, or grant any option or other right with respect to, any of the Collateral, or create or permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to the Collateral, except (i) for the Lien of this Indenture, (ii) as permitted under Section 1203(e) and (iii) for any such right that shall not be effective until the Lien of this Indenture on the Collateral shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 1212;

(b) not permit the Bank to adopt any resolution, by-law, charter amendment or other proposal, or enter into any contractual restriction, the effect of which would be to

(i) alter the number of shares of Voting Stock that must be voted in favor of any matter to cause its adoption by the Bank or, except to the extent required by law or that the charter of the Bank may otherwise provide as of the date of this Indenture, permit any charter, by-law or other provisions applicable to any class or series of Voting Stock of the Bank to provide for a class or series vote or that any action or resolution may be taken or adopted by holders of the shares of such class or series other than by the vote of a majority thereof at a meeting duly called and held at which a quorum is present or the consent of holders of at least a majority of the shares of such class or series then outstanding, or any class, or

(ii) classify any directors of the Bank (beyond any classification in effect on the date hereof), permit cumulative voting for directors or take any action that would diminish the ability of a holder of Pledged Bank Stock to remove directors;

(c) not use any portion of the proceeds of the issue and sale of the Securities for the purpose, whether immediate or incidental, of

(i) buying or carrying Margin Stock within the meaning of Regulation U or any successor provision thereto, or

(ii) buying, carrying or trading in “securities” within the meaning of Regulation T (12 C.F.R. Part 220, as amended) or buying or carrying any part of an investment contract security which shall be deemed credit for the purpose of buying or carrying the entire security; and

(d) not change its chief executive office, or change its name, identity or corporate structure in any manner that might make any financing or continuation statements filed hereunder seriously misleading within the meaning of Section 9-507 of the Uniform Commercial Code (or any other applicable provision of the Uniform Commercial Code), unless it shall have given the Trustee at least 10 days’ prior notice thereof (which notice also shall specify the new principal place of business and chief executive office of the Trust, if applicable) and an Opinion of Counsel to the effect specified in Section 1213(c) and unless it shall have taken all such action as may be required under Section 1206 as a result of such change.

The Trust may, at its option by Board Resolution, at any time, with respect to the Securities, elect to have either Section 1302 or Section 1303 be applied to all Outstanding Securities upon compliance with the conditions set forth below in this Article Thirteen.

Upon the Trust’s exercise under Section 1301 of the option applicable to this Section 1302, the Trust shall be deemed to have been discharged from its obligations with respect to all Outstanding Securities on the date the conditions set forth in Section 1304 are satisfied (hereinafter, “defeasance”). For this purpose, such defeasance means that the Trust shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the Outstanding Securities, which shall thereafter be deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 1305 and the other Sections of this Indenture referred to in (A) and (B) below, and to have satisfied all its other obligations under such Securities and this Indenture insofar as such Securities are concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Trust, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging the same), except for the following which shall survive until otherwise terminated or discharged hereunder: (A) the rights of Holders of Outstanding Securities to receive, solely from the trust fund described in Section 1304 and as more fully set forth in such Section 1304, payments in respect of the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on such Securities when such payments are due, (B) the Trust’s obligations with respect to such Securities under Sections 304, 305, 308, 1002 and 1003, (C) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee hereunder and (D) this Article Thirteen. Subject to compliance with this Article Thirteen, the Trust may exercise its option under this Section 1302 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its option under Section 1303 with respect to the Securities.

Upon the Trust’s exercise under Section 1301 of the option applicable to this Section 1303, the Trust shall be released from its obligations under any covenant contained in Sections 801 and 1009 through 1024 (inclusive) with respect to the Outstanding Securities on and after the date the conditions set forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “covenant defeasance”), and the Securities shall thereafter be deemed not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For this purpose, such covenant defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Securities, the Trust may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant, whether directly or indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or by reason of any reference in any such covenant to any other provision herein or in any other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under Section 501(iv), but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and such Securities shall be unaffected thereby.

The following shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1302 or Section 1303 to the Outstanding Securities:

(1) The Trust shall irrevocably have deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee (or another trustee satisfying the requirements of Section 608 who shall agree

to comply with the provisions of this Article Thirteen applicable to it) as trust funds in trust for the purpose of making the following payments, specifically pledged as security for, and dedicated solely to, the benefit of the Holders of such Securities, (A) money in United States dollars in an amount, or (B) U.S. Government Obligations (as defined below) which through the scheduled payment of principal and interest in respect thereof in accordance with their terms will provide, not later than one day before the due date of any payment, money in an amount, or (C) a combination thereof, 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, and which shall be applied by the Trustee (or other qualifying trustee) to pay and discharge, the principal of (and premium, if any, on) and interest on the Outstanding Securities on the Stated Maturity (or Redemption Date, if applicable) of such principal (and premium, if any) or installment of interest; provided that the Trustee shall have been irrevocably instructed to apply such money or the proceeds of such U.S. Government Obligations to said payments with respect to the Securities. Before such a deposit, the Trust may give to the Trustee, in accordance with Section 1103 hereof, a notice of its election to redeem all of the Outstanding Securities at a future date in accordance with Article Eleven hereof, which notice shall be irrevocable. Such irrevocable redemption notice, if given, shall be given effect in applying the foregoing. For this purpose, “U.S. Government Obligations” means securities that are (x) direct obligations of the United States of America for the timely payment of which its full faith and credit is pledged or (y) obligations of a Person controlled or supervised by and acting as an agency or instrumentality of the United States of America the timely payment of which is unconditionally guaranteed as a full faith and credit obligation by the United States of America, which, in either case, are not callable or redeemable at the option of the issuer thereof, and shall also include a depository receipt issued by a bank (as defined in Section 3(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended), as custodian with respect to any such U.S. Government Obligation or a specific payment of principal of or interest on any such U.S. Government Obligation held by such custodian for the account of the holder of such depository receipt, provided that (except as required by law) such custodian is not authorized to make any deduction from the amount payable to the holder of such depository receipt from any amount received by the custodian in respect of the U.S. Government Obligation or the specific payment of principal of or interest on the U.S. Government Obligation evidenced by such depository receipt.

Section 1014. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates.

		Title: Assistant Vice President

B. F. SAUL REAL ESTATE INVESTMENT TRUST, a Maryland real estate investment trust existing and operating under a declaration of trust governed by the laws of the State of Maryland (the “Trust,” which term includes any successor under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, promises to pay to , or its registered assigns, the principal sum of ($ ), on March 1, 2014.

This Note is a nonrecourse obligation of the Trust, and the sole recourse for collection of principal, premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be against the Pledged Bank Stock and the other Collateral. The Trust’s obligations under this Note are not guaranteed directly or indirectly by the Trust or any of its subsidiaries (including the Bank and its subsidiaries), and the Trust shall not be liable in any respect (except to the extent of its interest in the Pledged Bank Stock and the other Collateral) for the payment of any obligation due under this Note.

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

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trust has caused this Note to be signed manually or by facsimile by its duly authorized officers.

This is one of the 7¹/2% [Series B]* Senior Secured Notes due 2014 described in the within-mentioned Indenture.


WELLS FARGO BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION as Trustee

By:
		Authorized Signatory

The Trust promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note on each Interest Payment Date, as set forth below, at the rate of 7¹/2% per annum (subject to adjustment as provided below) [except that interest accrued on this Note (or the predecessor Note hereto) pursuant to the penultimate paragraph of this Section 1 for periods prior to the applicable Exchange Date (as such term is defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) will accrue at the rate or rates borne by the predecessor Note hereto from time to time during such periods pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement as set forth below].^*

Interest will be payable semiannually on each Interest Payment Date, commencing September 1, 2004, to the holders of record of the Notes or any predecessor Notes at the close of business on the August 15 or February 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date.

[The Holder of this Note is entitled to the benefits of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of February 25, 2004, between the Trust and the Initial Purchasers party thereto (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). In the event that (i) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not filed with the Commission on or prior to the 30th calendar day following the date hereof, (ii) the Exchange Offer Registration Statement is not declared effective on or prior to the 120th day following the date hereof, or (iii) the Exchange Offer is not consummated prior to the 150th day following the date hereof or a Shelf Registration Statement with respect to the Registrable Notes is not declared effective on or prior to the 150th day following the date hereof, the interest rate borne by the Notes shall be increased by one-half of one percent per annum following such 30-day period in the case of clause (i) above, following such 120-day period in the case of clause (ii) above or following such 150-day period in the case of clause (iii) above, which rate will be increased by an additional one-half of one percent per annum for each 30-day period that any additional interest continues to accrue, provided that the aggregate increase in such interest rate will in no event exceed one percent per annum. Upon (x) the filing of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement after the 30-day period described in clause (i) above, (y) the effectiveness of the Exchange Offer Registration Statement after the 120-day period described in clause (ii) above or, (z) consummation of the Exchange Offer, or the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement, as the case may be, after the 150-day, period described in clause (iii) above, the interest rate borne by the Notes from the date of such filing, effectiveness or consummation, as the case may be, will be reduced to the original interest rate if the Trust is otherwise in compliance with this paragraph; provided, however, that, if after any such reduction in interest rate, a different event specified in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above occurs, the interest rate will again be increased and thereafter reduced pursuant to the foregoing conditions. If the Trust issues a notice that the Shelf Registration Statement is unusable pending the announcement of a material corporate transaction, or such a notice is required under applicable securities laws to be issued by the Trust, and the aggregate number of days in any consecutive twelve-month period for which all such notices are issued or required to be issued exceeds 30 days per occurrence or more than 90 days in the aggregate, then the interest rate borne by the Notes will be increased by one-half of one percent per annum following the date that such Shelf Registration Statement ceases to be usable beyond the period permitted above, which rate shall be increased by an additional one-half of one percent per annum for each subsequent 30-day period that such additional interest continues to accrue; provided that the aggregate increase in such annual interest rate may in no event exceed one percent per annum.

Upon the Trust declaring that the Shelf Registration Statement is usable after the interest rate has been increased pursuant to the preceding sentence, the interest rate borne by the Notes will be reduced to the original interest rate if the Trust is otherwise in compliance with this paragraph; provided, however, that if after any such reduction in interest rate a different event of the kind described in the preceding event occurs, the interest rate will again be increased and thereafter reduced pursuant to the foregoing conditions.]*

If certain Defaults specified in the Indenture occur and are continuing, or an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the interest rate borne by the Notes will be increased by 2% per annum until such Default or Event of Default, as the case may be, is cured or waived. Such interest will accrue from the date of such Default or Event of Default, as the case may be, and will be payable after the time the Trust has knowledge of such Default or Event of Default. If not paid on any Interest Payment Date, the Trust may elect to make payment of any such interest to the Persons in whose names the Note (or predecessor Note) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date or in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the notes are listed.

Interest on this Note will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid [on this Note or the Note surrendered in exchange therefor]** or, if no interest has been paid, from February 25, 2004; provided that, if there is no existing default in the payment of interest and if this Note is authenticated between a Regular Record Date referred to on the face hereof and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest shall accrue from such Interest Payment Date. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

The Trust will pay interest on overdue principal and premium, if any, and interest on overdue installments of interest, to the extent lawful, at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the Notes.

The Indenture provides that, subject to certain conditions, the Trust may elect to transfer the obligations under the Notes and the Indenture, together with the ownership of the Pledged Bank Stock and the other Collateral, to the New Obligor (as defined in the Indenture). Thereafter, the Note will be a nonrecourse obligation of the New Obligor, and the sole recourse for collection of principal, premium, if any, and interest on this Note will be against the Pledged Bank Stock and the other Collateral. The New Obligor’s obligations under this Note will not be guaranteed directly or indirectly by the New Obligor or any of its subsidiaries (including the Bank and its subsidiaries), and the New Obligor shall not be liable in any respect (except to the extent of its interest in the Pledged Bank Stock and the other Collateral) for the payment of any obligations under this Note.

The Trust will pay interest (except Defaulted Interest and Additional Interest) on the principal amount of the Notes on each September 1 and March 1 to the persons who are Holders (as reflected in the Security Register at the close of business on the August 15 or February 15 immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date), in each case, even if the Note is canceled on registration of transfer or registration of exchange after such record date. The Trust will pay the principal of this Note to the Holder that surrenders this Note to any Paying Agent on or after March 1, 2014.

Initially, the Trustee will act as authenticating agent, Paying Agent and Securities Registrar. The Trust may change any authenticating agent, Paying Agent or Securities Registrar upon written notice thereto. The Trust, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of them may act as Paying Agent, Securities Registrar or co-registrar.

The Trust issued the Notes under an Indenture, dated as of February 25, 2004 (the “Indenture”), between the Trust and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”). Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise indicated. The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders are referred to the Indenture and the Trust Indenture Act for a statement of all such terms. To the extent permitted by applicable law, in the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Note and the terms of the Indenture, the terms of the Indenture shall control.

The Notes are secured general obligations of the Trust, secured by the Collateral. The Indenture limits the aggregate principal amount of the Notes to $250,000,000.

The Notes may be redeemed at the option of the Trust, as a whole or from time to time in part, at any time on or from time to time on or after March 1, 2009 at the following Redemption Prices (expressed in percentages of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but excluding the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the applicable Interest Payment Date), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning March 1 of each of the years set forth below:

Notice of a redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed at such Holder’s last address as it appears in the Security Register. Notes in original denominations larger than $1,000 may be redeemed in part in integral multiples of $1,000. On and after the Redemption Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes called for redemption, unless the Trust defaults in the payment of the Redemption Price.

In addition to the optional redemption of the Notes in accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph, at any time prior to March 1, 2009, the Notes will be redeemable at the option of the Trust, in whole or in part, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior written notice to each holder of Notes to be redeemed, at a redemption price equal to the sum of (x) the principal amount thereof, plus (y) accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable date of redemption, plus (z) the Applicable Premium.

Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, the Trust shall be obligated to make an offer to repurchase such Holder’s Notes, in whole or in part, in integral multiples of $1,000, at a purchase price in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest (if any) to the date of purchase (the “Change in Control Payment”).

A notice of each Change in Control will be mailed within 30 days after such Change in Control occurs to each Holder at his last address as it appears in the Security Register. Notes in original denominations larger than $1,000 may be sold to the Trust in part. On and after the Change in Control Purchase Date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes or portions of Notes surrendered for purchase by the Trust, unless the Trust defaults in the payment of the Change in Control Payment.

The Notes are in registered form without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. A Holder may register the transfer or exchange of Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Registrar may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture. The Registrar need not register the transfer or exchange of any Notes selected for redemption (except the unredeemed portion of any Note being redeemed in part). Also, it need not register the transfer or exchange of any Notes for a period of 15 days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed is made.

If money for the payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest remains unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying Agent will pay the money back to the Trust. After that, Holders entitled to the money must look to the Trust for payment, unless an abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such money shall cease.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Indenture or the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the consent of the Holders of greater than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, and any existing default or compliance with any provision may be waived with the consent of the Holders of greater than 50% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding. Without notice to or the consent of any Holder, the parties thereto may amend or supplement the Indenture or the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity or inconsistency provided such change does not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of the Notes.

The Indenture contains certain covenants, including but not limited to, covenants with respect to the following matters: (i) limitation on indebtedness; (ii) limitation on restricted payments; (iii) limitation on transactions with affiliates; (iv) limitation on dividend and other payment restrictions affecting Major Real Estate Subsidiaries; (v) limitation on issuances and sales of Restricted Subsidiary Preferred Stock; (vi) required ownership of Bank common stock; (vii) limitation on disposal of, or liens on, the Collateral; (viii) restriction on use of proceeds to purchase securities; (ix) change of control; and (x) restrictions on merger, consolidation and sale of assets of the Trust. At the end of each fiscal quarter, the Trust must report to the Trustee on compliance with such covenants.

When a successor Person assumes all the obligations of its predecessor under the Notes and the Indenture in accordance with the Indenture (including, but not limited to, the New Obligor), the predecessor Person will be released from those obligations.

If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

This Note is secured by a security interest in certain Collateral, as provided in the Indenture, and is entitled to the benefits thereof.

The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may make loans to, accept deposits from, perform services for, and otherwise deal with, the Trust and its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee.

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee or authenticating agent signs the certificate of authentication on the other side of this Note.

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common), TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian) and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).
