The Calculation Agent will request the principal London office of each of these banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, One-Month LIBOR with respect to that Monthly Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean (rounded upward if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 0.00001%) of such quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided, One-Month LIBOR with respect to that Monthly Interest Period will be the arithmetic mean (rounded upward if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 0.00001%) of the rates quoted by three major banks in New York City selected by the Calculation Agent, at approximately 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the first day of that Monthly Interest Period for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks for a one-month period commencing on the first day of that Monthly Interest Period and in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000. However, if fewer than three banks selected by the Calculation Agent to provide quotations are quoting as described above, One-Month LIBOR for that Monthly Interest Period will be the same as One-Month LIBOR as determined for the previous Monthly Interest Period or, in the case of the Monthly Interest Period beginning on the Scheduled Maturity Date, 5.349%.

(vi) Net proceeds of the issuance of any Qualifying Capital Securities that the Company is permitted to apply to repayment of the JSNs on any Repayment Date will be applied, first, to pay deferred interest to the extent of Eligible Proceeds raised pursuant to Section 2.7, second, to pay current interest to the extent not paid from other sources and, third, to repay the principal of JSNs, subject to a minimum principal amount of $5 million to be repaid on any Repayment Date; provided that if the Company is obligated to sell Qualifying Capital Securities and apply the net proceeds to payments of principal of or interest on any outstanding securities in addition to the JSNs, then on any date and for any period the amount of net proceeds received by the Company from those sales and available for such payments shall be applied to the JSNs and those other securities having


		-10-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

the same scheduled maturity date as the JSNs pro rata in accordance with their respective outstanding principal amounts and none of such net proceeds shall be applied to any other securities having a later scheduled maturity date until the principal of and all accrued and unpaid interest on the JSNs has been paid in full. If the Company raises less than $5 million of proceeds from the sale of Qualifying Capital Securities during the relevant 180-day or 30-day period, the Company will not be required to repay any JSNs on the Scheduled Maturity Date or the next Monthly Interest Payment Date, as applicable, but will use those net proceeds to repay the JSNs on the next Monthly Interest Payment Date as of which the Company has raised at least $5 million of net proceeds.

(vii) The Company shall not amend the Replacement Capital Covenant to impose additional restrictions on the type or amount of Qualifying Capital Securities that the Company may include for purposes of determining when repayment, redemption or purchase of the JSNs or the Trust Preferred Securities is permitted, except with the consent of holders of a majority by liquidation amount of the Trust Preferred Securities or, if the JSNs have been distributed by the Trust to the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, a majority by principal amount of the JSNs. Except as aforesaid, the Company may amend or supplement the Replacement Capital Covenant in accordance with its terms and without the consent of the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities or the JSNs.

(b) Final Repayment Date. The principal of, and all accrued and unpaid interest on, all outstanding JSNs shall be due and payable on the Final Repayment Date, regardless of the amount of Qualifying Capital Securities the Company may have issued and sold by that time. Initially, the Final Repayment Date will be December 1, 2066. The Company may elect to extend the initial Final Repayment Date up to two times in ten-year increments on either or both of December 15, 2016 and December 15, 2026 (each such date, an “Extension Date”), and as a result the Final Repayment Date may be extended to December 1, 2076 (if the election is made on only one Extension Date) or December 1, 2086 (if the election is made on both Extension Dates), if all the following criteria are satisfied:

(i) On the applicable Extension Date the JSNs are assigned an investment grade rating by either ▇▇▇▇▇’▇ Investor Services or Standard & Poor’s or, if neither of those rating agencies or their respective successors are then in existence, an equivalent rating, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization within the meaning of 15c3-1(c)(2)(vi)(F) under the Exchange Act;

(ii) From and including the date that is three years prior to the applicable Extension Date to but excluding the Extension Date, (x) no event of default has occurred in respect of any of the Company’s then outstanding debt for money borrowed, and (y) the Company did not have any outstanding deferred payments under any of its then outstanding Preferred Stock or debt for money borrowed; and

(iii) On the applicable Extension Date the Company delivered a written certification to the Trustee dated as of such date stating that on the applicable Extension Date (x) the Company believes that the likelihood that the Company will elect to defer interest on the JSNs is remote, (y) the Company expects to make all required payments on the JSNs in accordance with their terms, and (z) the Company expects to be able to satisfy its obligations under the Replacement Capital Covenant.

From and after the applicable Extension Date the Final Repayment Date will be the Final Repayment Date as so extended, provided that if any date that would be the Final Repayment Date as determined pursuant to this Section 2.2(b) is not a Business Day, the Final Repayment Date shall be the next following Business Day.


		-11-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

Section 2.3 Form

The JSNs shall be issued in fully registered definitive form without interest coupons. Principal of and interest on the JSNs issued in definitive form will be payable, the transfer of such JSNs will be registrable and such JSNs will be exchangeable for JSNs bearing identical terms and provisions and notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the JSNs and the Indenture may be served at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, and the Company appoints the Trustee as its agent for the foregoing purposes, provided that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Holder at such address as shall appear in the Securities Register or by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the bank account number of the Holder specified in writing by the Holder not less than 10 days before the relevant Interest Payment Date and entered in the Securities Register by the Securities Registrar, provided further that if the Property Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, is the sole Holder of the JSNs then payment of interest shall be made by wire transfer in immediately available funds to a bank account number specified by the Property Trustee. The JSNs may be presented for registration of transfer or exchange at the Securities Registrar Office.

Section 2.4 Rate of Interest; Interest Payment Date

(a) Rate of Interest. The JSNs shall bear interest (i) from and including December 6, 2006 to but excluding the Scheduled Maturity Date at the rate of 6.100% per annum, computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months, and (ii) thereafter, as to any unpaid amounts that remain outstanding, at an annual rate equal to One-Month LIBOR plus 1.965%, accruing from December 15, 2036 and computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. Accrued interest that is not paid on the applicable Interest Payment Date, including interest deferred pursuant to Section 2.5, will bear Additional Interest, to the extent permitted by law, at the interest rate in effect from time to time on the JSNs, from the relevant Interest Payment Date, compounded on each subsequent Interest Payment Date.

(b) Interest Payment Date. Subject to the other provisions hereof, interest on the JSNs shall be payable (i) semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on June 15, 2007, until and including the Scheduled Maturity Date (each such date, a “Semi-Annual Interest Payment Date”), or if any such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day (and no interest shall accrue as a result of such postponement) and (ii) thereafter, on the 15th day of each calendar month, or if any such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day (each such date, a “Monthly Interest Payment Date” and, together with Semi-Annual Interest Payment Date, the “Interest Payment Dates”), in arrears, commencing on January 15, 2037.

Section 2.5 Interest Deferral

(a) Option to Defer Interest Payments.

(i) The Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time, to defer the payment of interest on the JSNs for one or more consecutive Interest Periods that do not exceed 10 years, provided that no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Final Repayment Date or the earlier repayment or redemption in full of the JSNs. Upon termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all deferred interest then due on any Interest Payment Date the Company may elect to begin a new Extension Period pursuant to this Section 2.5. The provisions of this Second Supplemental Indenture relating to deferral if interest shall apply in lieu of, and not in addition to, Section 3.11 of the Indenture.


		-12-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

(ii) At the end of any Extension Period, the Company shall pay all deferred interest on the JSNs to the Persons in whose names the JSNs are registered in the Securities Register at the close of business on the Regular Record Date with respect to the Interest Payment Date at the end of such Extension Period.

(iii) The Company may elect to pay interest on any Interest Payment Date during any Extension Period to the extent permitted by Section 2.5(b).

(b) Payment of Deferred Interest. The Company will not pay deferred interest on the JSNs on any Interest Payment Date during any Extension Period prior to the Final Repayment Date or at any time an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing from any source other than Eligible Proceeds. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Company may pay current interest during an Extension Period or at any other time from any available funds and (ii) if a Supervisory Event has occurred and is continuing, then the Company may (but is not obligated to) pay deferred interest with cash from any source. In addition, if the Company sells Qualifying APM Securities pursuant to Section 2.7 but a Supervisory Event arises from the Federal Reserve disapproving the use of the proceeds to pay deferred interest, the Company may use the proceeds for other purposes and continue to defer interest on the JSNs.

(c) Business Combination Exception. If the Company is involved in a Business Combination where immediately after its consummation more than 50% of the voting stock of the Person formed by such Business Combination, or the Person that is the surviving entity of such Business Combination, or the Person to whom such properties and assets are conveyed, transferred or leased in such Business Combination, is owned by the shareholders of the other party to such Business Combination, then Section 2.5(b) and Section 2.7 shall not apply to any interest on the JSNs that is deferred and unpaid as of the date of consummation of such Business Combination.

(d) Notice of Deferral. The Company shall give written notice of its election to begin or extend any Extension Period, (x) if the Property Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, is the sole Holder of the JSNs, to the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee at least five Business Days before the earlier of (A) the next succeeding date on which the distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities are payable and (B) the date the Property Trustee is required to give notice to holders of the Trust Preferred Securities of the record or payment date for the related distribution, or (y) if the Property Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, is not the sole Holder of the JSNs, to Holders of the JSNs and the Trustee at least five Business Days before the next Interest Payment Date. Notice of the Company’s election of an Extension Period shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than three Business Days after the Property Trustee receives written notice from the Company to each holder of Trust Securities at such holder’s address appearing in the Security Register.

Section 2.6 Dividend and Other Payment Stoppages during Extension Period

(a) Dividend and Other Payment Stoppages. So long as any JSNs remain outstanding, if the Company has given notice of its election to defer interest payments on the JSNs but the related Extension Period has not yet commenced or an Extension Period is continuing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to:

(i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to, any shares of capital stock of the Company;


		-13-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

(ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, purchase or redeem any Parity Securities or any debt securities or guarantees of the Company that ranks junior in interest upon liquidation to the JSNs; or

(iii) make any payments under any guarantee by the Company that ranks pari passu with or junior to the Guarantee Agreement;

provided, however, the restrictions in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply to: (1) any purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of its capital stock by the Company in connection with (A) any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more of its employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors, (B) the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract entered into in the ordinary course prior to the beginning of the applicable Extension Period, (C) a dividend reinvestment or shareholder purchase plan, or (D) the issuance of the Company’s capital stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock, as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period, (2) any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or the capital stock of one of its Subsidiaries, for any other class or series of its capital stock, or of any class or series of its indebtedness for any class or series of its capital stock, (3) any purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the securities being converted or exchanged, (4) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any shareholder rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any shareholder rights plan, or the redemption or purchase of rights pursuant thereto, (5) payments by the Company under any guarantee agreement executed for the benefit of the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, (6) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equally with or junior to such stock, (7) any payment of current interest on Parity Securities that is made pro rata to the amounts due on such Parity Securities (including the JSNs) and any payments of deferred interest on Parity Securities that, if not made, would cause the Company to breach the terms of the instrument governing such Parity Securities, provided that such payments are made in accordance with Section 2.7(c) to the extent it applies, or (8) any payment of principal in respect of Parity Securities having the same scheduled maturity date as the JSNs, as required under a provision of such other Parity Securities that is substantially the same as the provision described under Section 2.2, and that is made on a pro rata basis among one or more series of Parity Securities (including the JSNs) having such a provision. The distribution restrictions and exceptions in this Section 2.6 shall be in lieu of the distribution restrictions and exceptions in Section 3.11 of the Indenture.

(b) Additional Limitation on Deferral over One Year. If any Extension Period lasts longer than one year, the limitation on the ability to redeem or purchase Common Stock, as set forth in Section 2.6(a)(i), shall continue until the first anniversary of the date on which all deferred interest on the JSNs has been paid. However, if the Company is involved in a Business Combination where immediately after its consummation more than 50% of the voting stock of the Person formed by such Business Combination, or the Person that is the surviving entity of such Business Combination, or the Person to whom such properties and assets are conveyed, transferred or leased in such Business Combination, is owned by the shareholders of the other party to such Business Combination, then the preceding sentence will not apply to any Extension Period that is terminated on the next Interest Payment Date following the date of consummation of such Business Combination.


		-14-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

Section 2.7 Alternative Payment Mechanism

(a) Obligation to Issue Qualifying APM Securities. During the APM Period, the Company shall, subject to the occurrence and continuation of a Supervisory Event or a Market Disruption Event as described under Section 2.7(b) and subject to Section 2.5(c), issue one or more types of Qualifying APM Securities until the Company has raised an amount of Eligible Proceeds at least equal to the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid deferred interest on the JSNs and applied such Eligible Proceeds on the next Interest Payment Date to the payment of deferred interest in accordance with Section 2.6, provided that:

(i) the foregoing obligations shall not apply to the extent that, with respect to deferred interest attributable to the first five years of any Extension Period, the net proceeds of any issuance of Common Stock (or, if the definition of Qualifying APM Securities has been modified to exclude Common Stock, Qualifying Warrants) applied during such Extension Period to pay interest on the JSNs pursuant to this Section 2.7, together with the net proceeds of all prior issuances of Common Stock and Qualifying Warrants so applied, would exceed an amount equal to 2% of the product of the average of the Current Stock Market Prices of the Common Stock on the 10 consecutive Trading Days ending on the second Trading Day immediately preceding the date of issuance multiplied by the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the date of the Company’s then most recent publicly available consolidated financial statements (the “Common Equity Issuance Cap”); provided that the Common Equity Issuance Cap will cease to apply after the ninth anniversary of the commencement of any Extension Period, at which point the Company must pay any deferred interest regardless of the time at which it was deferred, pursuant to this Section 2.7, subject to any Supervisory Event or Market Disruption Event; and provided, further, that if the Common Equity Issuance Cap is reached during an Extension Period and the Company subsequently repays all deferred interest, the Common Equity Issuance Cap will cease to apply at the termination of such Extension Period and will not apply again unless and until the Company starts a new Extension Period; and

(ii) the foregoing obligations shall not apply to the extent that the net proceeds of any issuance of Qualifying Preferred Stock applied to pay interest on the JSNs pursuant to this Section 2.7, together with the net proceeds of all prior issuances of Preferred Stock so applied during the current and all prior Extension Periods, would exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the JSNs initially issued under the Indenture (the “Preferred Stock Issuance Cap”).

For the avoidance of doubt, (x) once the Company reaches the Common Equity Issuance Cap for an Extension Period, the Company shall not be required to issue more Common Stock with respect to deferred interest attributable to the first five years of such Extension Period pursuant to this Section 2.7, even if the amount referred to in clause (i) of this Section 2.7 subsequently increases because of a subsequent increase in the Current Stock Market Price of Common Stock or the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, and (y) so long as the definition of Qualifying APM Securities has not been amended to eliminate Common Stock, the sale of Qualifying Warrants to pay deferred interest is an option that may be exercised at the Company’s sole discretion, subject to the Common Equity Issuance Cap, and the Company is not obligated to sell Qualifying Warrants or to apply the proceeds of any such sale to pay deferred interest on the JSNs, and no class of investors of the Company’s securities, or any other party, may require the Company to issue Qualifying Warrants.

(b) Market Disruption Event and Supervisory Event. Section 2.7(a) shall not apply, with respect to any Interest Payment Date, if the Company shall have provided to the Trustee (and to the Property Trustee of the Trust to the extent the Company is the sole Holder of the JSNs) no more than 15 and no less than 10 Business Days prior to such Interest Payment Date an Officers’ Certificate stating


		-15-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

that (i) a Market Disruption Event was existing after the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date and (ii) either (x) the Market Disruption Event continued for the entire period from the Business Day immediately following the preceding Interest Payment Date to the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such Officers’ Certificate is provided or (y) the Market Disruption Event continued for only part of such period but the Company was unable after Commercially Reasonable Efforts to raise sufficient Eligible Proceeds during the rest of that period to pay all accrued and unpaid interest due on the Interest Payment Date with respect to which such Officers’ Certificate is being delivered. Section 2.7(a) shall not apply, with respect to any Interest Payment Date, if the Company shall have provided to the Trustee (and to the Property Trustee of the Trust to the extent the Company is the sole Holder of the JSNs) on or prior to such Interest Payment Date an Officers’ Certificate stating that (i) a Supervisory Event was existing after the immediately preceding Interest Payment Date and (ii) either (x) the Supervisory Event prevented the sale of Qualifying APM Securities for the entire period from the Business Day immediately following the preceding Interest Payment Date to the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such Officers’ Certificate is provided or (y) the Supervisory Event prevented the sale of Qualifying APM Securities for only part of such period but the Company was unable after Commercially Reasonable Efforts to raise sufficient Eligible Proceeds during the rest of that period to pay all accrued and unpaid interest due on the Interest Payment Date with respect to which such Officers’ Certificate is being delivered or (z) the Supervisory Event prevents the Company from applying the net proceeds of sales of Qualifying APM Securities to pay deferred interest on such Interest Payment Date.

(i) If the Company has raised some but not all Eligible Proceeds necessary to pay all deferred interest on any Interest Payment Date pursuant to this Section 2.7, such Eligible Proceeds shall be allocated to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the applicable Interest Payment Date in chronological order based on the date each payment was first deferred, subject to the Common Equity Issuance Cap and the Preferred Stock Issuance Cap, and payment on each installment of deferred interest shall be distributed to Holders of such installment on a pro rata basis.

(ii) If the Company has outstanding Parity Securities under which the Company is obligated to sell securities that are Qualifying APM Securities and apply the net proceeds to the payment of deferred interest or distributions, then on any date and for any period the amount of net proceeds received by the Company from those sales and available for payment of the deferred interest and distributions shall be applied to the JSNs and those other Parity Securities on a pro rata basis up to the Common Equity Issuance Cap and the Preferred Stock Issuance Cap (or comparable provisions in the instruments governing those other Parity Securities) in proportion to the total amounts that are due on the JSNs and such other Parity Securities, or on such other basis as the Federal Reserve may approve.

(d) Qualifying APM Securities Definition Change. The Company shall send written notice to the Trustee (which notice the Trustee shall promptly forward upon receipt to the Administrative Trustees, who shall forward such notice to each holder of record of Trust Preferred Securities) in advance of any change in the definition of Qualifying APM Securities to eliminate Common Stock or Qualifying Warrants.

Section 2.8 Redemption of the JSNs

(a) Redemption Price. The JSNs shall be redeemable in accordance with Article XI of the Indenture, provided that (i) the JSNs are redeemable in whole or in part at the option of the Company at any time after the date hereof at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date or (2) in the case of any such


		-16-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

redemption prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date, the Make-Whole Redemption Price; (ii) the JSNs are redeemable in whole but not in part at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of and during the continuation of a Tax Event or a Rating Agency Event at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date or (2) the Make-Whole Redemption Price; and (iii) the JSNs are redeemable in whole but not in part at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Investment Company Event or a Capital Treatment Event at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. The Company may not redeem the JSNs in part if the principal amount of the JSNs has been accelerated and such acceleration has not been rescinded unless all accrued and unpaid interest including deferred interest has been paid in full on all outstanding JSNs for all Interest Periods terminating on or before the Redemption Date.

(b) Sinking Fund. The JSNs are not entitled to any sinking fund payments or similar provisions.

Section 2.9 Events of Default

(a) Section 5.1(2) of the Indenture shall not apply to the JSNs, and the occurrence of an event described therein will not by an Event of Default with respect to the JSNs.

(b) So long as any JSNs are held by or on behalf of the Trust, the Trustee shall provide to the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities such notices as it shall from time to time provide under Section 6.2 of the Indenture. In addition, the Trustee shall provide to the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities notice of any Event of Default or event that, with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become an Event of Default with respect to the JSNs within 30 days after the actual knowledge of a Responsible Officer of the Trustee of such Event of Default or other event.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, and without prejudice to any other remedies that may be available to the Trustee, the Holders of the JSNs or the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities under the Indenture, no breach by the Company of any covenant or obligation under the Indenture or the terms of the JSNs shall be an Event of Default with respect to the JSNs other than those specified as Events of Default in Section 5.1 of the Indenture.

Section 2.10 Securities Registrar; Paying Agent; Delegation of Trustee Duties

(a) The Company appoints U.S. Bank National Association, as Securities Registrar and Paying Agent with respect to the JSNs.

(b) Notwithstanding any provision contained herein, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustee may delegate its duty to provide such notices and to perform such other duties as may be required to be provided or performed by the Trustee under the Indenture, and, to the extent such obligation has been so delegated, the Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring the compliance of, nor be liable for the default or misconduct of, any such designee.

Section 2.11 Obligation to Seek Shareholder Approval to Increase Authorized Share

(a) Obligation to Seek Shareholder Approval. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to seek shareholder consent to increase the number of its authorized shares if, at any date, the Shares Available for Issuance fall below the greater of (i) 25 million shares (as adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reclassification, recapitalization, split-up, combination, exchange of shares or similar transaction) and (ii) three times the number of shares that the Company would need to


		-17-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

issue to raise sufficient proceeds to pay (assuming a price per share equal to the average trading price of the shares over the 10 Trading Day period preceding such date) (x) then outstanding deferred interest on the JSNs plus (y) twelve additional months of deferred interest on the JSNs.

(b) Amendment to Shares Available for Issuance Provisions. The Company may modify the definition of Shares Available for Issuance and the related provisions hereof without the consent of holders of the Trust Preferred Securities or JSNs, provided that (i) the Company has determined, in its reasonable discretion, that such modification is not materially adverse to such holders, (ii) the rating agencies then rating the Trust Preferred Securities confirm the then current ratings of the Trust Preferred Securities, and (iii) the number of Shares Available for Issuance after giving effect to such modification will not fall below the then applicable threshold set forth in Section 2.11(a) above.

Section 2.12 Limitation on Claims in the Event of Bankruptcy, Insolvency or Receivership

Each Holder, by such Holder’s acceptance of the JSNs, agrees that if a Bankruptcy Event of the Company shall occur prior to the redemption or repayment of such JSNs, such Holder shall have no claim for, and thus no right to receive, any deferred interest pursuant to Section 2.5 that has not been paid pursuant to Sections 2.5 and 2.7 to the extent the amount of such interest exceeds two years of accumulated and unpaid interest on such Holder’s JSNs.

Section 2.13 Amendment

For the purposes of the JSNs (but not for the purposes of any other Securities unless specifically set forth in the terms of such Securities), Section 9.1 of the Indenture is hereby amended to add the following Section (10):

ARTICLE III

REPAYMENT OF JSNS

Section 3.1 Repayments

The Company shall, not less than 15 nor more than 10 Business Days prior to each Repayment Date (unless a shorter notice shall be satisfactory to the Trustee), notify the Trustee of the principal amount of JSNs to be repaid on such date pursuant to Section 2.2(a).

Section 3.2 Selection of the JSNs to be Repaid

If less than all the JSNs are to be repaid on any Repayment Date (unless the JSNs are issued in the form of a Global Security or held by the Property Trustee), the particular JSNs to be repaid shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to such Repayment Date by the Trustee, from the Outstanding JSNs not previously repaid or called for redemption, by lot or such other method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of a portion of the principal amount of any JSNs, provided that the portion of the principal amount of any JSNs not repaid shall be in an authorized denomination (which shall not be less than the minimum authorized denomination).


		-18-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the JSNs selected for partial repayment and the principal amount thereof to be repaid. For all purposes hereof, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the repayment of JSNs shall relate, in the case of any JSNs repaid or to be repaid only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such JSNs which has been or is to be repaid. JSNs registered in the name of the Company, any Affiliate or any Subsidiary thereof shall not be included in the JSNs selected for repayment except to the extent no other JSNs remain or would remain outstanding.

Each notice of repayment shall identify the JSNs to be repaid (including CUSIP number, if a CUSIP number has been assigned to the JSNs) and shall state:

(a) the Repayment Date;

(b) if less than all Outstanding JSNs are to be repaid, the identification (and, in the case of partial repayment, the respective principal amounts) of the particular JSNs to be repaid;

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

Section 3.4 Deposit of Repayment Amount

Prior to 10:00 a.m. New York City time on the Repayment Date specified in the notice of repayment given as provided in Section 3.3, the Company will deposit with the Trustee or with one or more Paying Agents (or if the Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company will segregate and hold in trust as provided in Section 10.3 of the Indenture) an amount of money sufficient to pay the principal amount of, and any accrued interest on, all the JSNs which are to be repaid on that date.

Upon presentation of any JSN repaid in part only, the Company shall execute and the Trustee shall authenticate and make available for delivery to the Holder thereof, at the expense of the Company, a new JSN or JSNs, of authorized denominations, in aggregate principal amount equal to the portion of the JSNs not repaid and so presented and having the same Scheduled Maturity Date and other terms. If a Global Security is so surrendered, such new JSN will also be a new Global Security.

SUNTRUST BANKS, INC.

6.100% EXTENDIBLE JUNIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES

SUNTRUST BANKS, INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Georgia (hereinafter called the “Company”, which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to , or registered assigns, the principal sum of ONE BILLION AND TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,000,010,000) and all accrued and unpaid interest thereof on December 15, 2036, or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day (the “Scheduled Maturity Date”) or any subsequent Interest Payment Date (as hereafter defined) to the extent set forth in the Second Supplement Indenture. If that amount is not paid in full on the Scheduled Maturity Date or any subsequent Interest Payment Date, the remaining amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest, will be due and payable on the Final Repayment Date. Initially, the Final Repayment Date will be December 1, 2066, or if such day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day. The Company may elect to extend the Final Repayment Date one or two times in ten-year increments on either or both of December 15, 2016 and December 15, 2026 (each such date, an “Extension Date”), if certain conditions are met as set forth in Section 2.2(b) of the Second Supplemental Indenture, and as a result the Final Repayment Date of the Security may be extended to December 1, 2076 (if the election is made on only one Extension Date) or December 1, 2086 (if the election is made on both Extension Dates).

The Company further promises to pay interest on said principal sum from and including December 6, 2006, or from and including the most recent interest payment date on which interest has been paid or duly provided for, semi-annually (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing June 15, 2007, at the rate of 6.100% per annum (computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months) to but excluding the Scheduled Maturity Date, and to pay interest, after the Scheduled Maturity Date, on said outstanding principal sum monthly in arrears on the 15th day of each calendar month (each such date and, together with such June 15 and December 15 of each year, an “Interest Payment Date”), at a floating annual rate equal to One-Month LIBOR (as defined in the Second Supplemental Indenture) plus 1.965% (computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed), until the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, plus Additional Interest, if any, until the principal hereof is paid or duly provided for or made available for payment. Accrued interest that is not paid on the applicable Interest Payment Date, including interest deferred pursuant to Section 2.5 of the


		-21-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

Second Supplemental Indenture, will bear Additional Interest, to the extent permitted by law, at the interest rate in effect from time to time, from the relevant Interest Payment Date, compounded on each subsequent Interest Payment Date. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on this Security is not a Business Day, then a payment of the interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and, in the case of payments on or prior to the Scheduled Maturity Date, without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) with the same force and effect as if made on the date the payment was originally payable. A “Business Day” shall mean any day other than a Saturday, Sunday, or any other day on which banking institutions and trust companies in New York, New York, Wilmington, Delaware or Atlanta, Georgia, are permitted or required by any applicable law to close. The interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest installment, which shall be the date that is the last day of the month immediately preceding the month in which such Interest Payment Date falls (whether or not a Business Day). Any such interest installment not so punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and may either be paid to the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to Holders of Securities of this series not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the Securities of this series may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in said Indenture.

So long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right at any time or from time to time during the term of this Security to defer payment of interest on this Security for one or more consecutive interest payment periods (each an “Extension Period”) that do not exceed 10 years, during which Extension Periods the Company shall have the right to make partial payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date, and at the end of which the Company shall pay all interest then accrued and unpaid (together with Additional Interest thereon to the extent permitted by applicable law); provided, however, that no Extension Period shall extend beyond the Final Repayment Date or the earlier repayment or redemption in full of the Securities. Upon the termination of any Extension Period and upon the payment of all deferred interest then due, the Company may elect to begin a new Extension Period, subject to the above requirements. Deferred interest on the Security will bear interest at the then applicable interest rate, compounded on each Interest Payment Date, subject to applicable law. No interest shall be due and payable during an Extension Period except at the end thereof. Additional limitations may apply, pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Second Supplemental Indenture, if any Extension Period lasts longer than one year.

So long as any Securities remain outstanding, if the Company has given notice of its election to defer interest payments on the Securities but the related Deferral Period has not yet commenced or an Extension Period is continuing, the Company shall not, and shall not permit any Subsidiary of the Company to, (i) declare or pay any dividends or distributions, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a liquidation payment with respect to any shares of the Company’s capital stock, (ii) make any payment of principal of or interest or premium, if any, on or repay, purchase or redeem any debt securities or guarantees of the Company that rank upon the Company’s liquidation on a parity with this Security (including this Security, the “Parity Securities“), or junior in interest to this Security (except for partial payments of interest with respect to the Security) or (iii) make any payments under any guarantee by the Company that ranks pari passu with or junior to the Guarantee Agreement (other than (a) any purchase, redemption or other acquisition of shares of the Company’s capital stock in connection with (1) any employment contract, benefit plan or other similar arrangement with or for the benefit of any one or more of its employees, officers, directors, consultants or independent contractors,


		-22-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

(2) the satisfaction of the Company’s obligations pursuant to any contract entered into in the ordinary course prior to the beginning of the Extension Period, (3) a dividend reinvestment or stockholder purchase plan, or (4) the issuance of the Company’s capital stock, or securities convertible into or exercisable for such capital stock, as consideration in an acquisition transaction entered into prior to the applicable Extension Period; (b) any exchange, redemption or conversion of any class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or the capital stock of one of its subsidiaries, for any other class or series of the Company’s capital stock, or any class or series of the Company’s indebtedness for any class or series of its capital stock; (c) any purchase of fractional interests in shares of the Company’s capital stock pursuant to the conversion or exchange provisions of such capital stock or the securities being converted or exchanged; (d) any declaration of a dividend in connection with any rights plan, or the issuance of rights, stock or other property under any rights plan, or the redemption or purchase of rights pursuant thereto; (e) payments under any SunTrust Guarantee executed for the benefit of the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities; (f) any dividend in the form of stock, warrants, options or other rights where the dividend stock or stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants, options or other rights is the same stock as that on which the dividend is being paid or ranks equally with or junior to such stock); (g) any payment of current interest on Parity Securities that is made pro rata to the amounts due on such Parity Securities and any payments of deferred interest on Parity Securities that, if not made, would cause the Company to breach the terms of the instrument governing such Parity Securities, provided that such payments are made in accordance with Section 2.7(c) of the Second Supplemental Indenture to the extent it applies, or (h) any payment of principal in respect of Parity Securities having the same scheduled maturity date as this Security, as required under a provision of such Parity Securities that is substantially the same as the provision described in Section 2.2 of the Second Supplemental Indenture, and that is made on a pro rata basis among one or more series of Parity Securities having such a provision). In addition, if any Extension Period lasts longer than one year, the restrictions on the Company’s ability to redeem or repurchase any of its common stock set forth in clause (i) of this paragraph will continue until the first anniversary of the date on which all deferred interest on this Security has been paid.

The Company shall give written notice of its election to begin or extend any Extension Period, (x) if the Property Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, is the sole holder of the Securities, to the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee at least five Business Days before the earlier of (A) the next succeeding date on which the distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities are payable and (B) the date the Property Trustee is required to give notice to holders of the Trust Preferred Securities of the record or payment date for the related distribution, or (y) if the Property Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, is not the sole Holder of the Securities, to Holders of the Securities and the Trustee at least five Business Days before the next Interest Payment Date. Notice of the Company’s election of an Extension Period shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than three Business Days after the Property Trustee receives written notice from the Company to each holder of Trust Securities at such holder’s address appearing in the Security Register.

Payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security will be made at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the United States, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts; provided, however, that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made (i) by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Securities Register or (ii) by wire transfer in immediately available funds at the bank account number as may be designated by the Person entitled thereto as specified in the Securities Register in writing not less than ten days before the relevant Interest Payment Date.

The indebtedness evidenced by this Security is, to the extent provided in the Indenture, subordinate and junior in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt, and this Security is issued subject to the provisions of the Indenture with respect thereto. Each Holder of this Security, by accepting the same, (a) agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions,


		-23-		SECOND SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE

(b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided and (c) appoints the Trustee his attorney-in-fact for any and all such purposes. Each Holder hereof, by his acceptance hereof, waives all notice of the acceptance of the subordination provisions contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance by each such holder upon said provisions.

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

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

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