EXPLANATORY NOTE

The purpose of this post-effective amendment is to add two registrants (Deutsche Bank Contingent Capital LLC V and Deutsche Bank Contingent Capital Trust V) to the Registration Statement No. 333-162195, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 29, 2009 (the “Registration Statement”), and to file as exhibits to such Registration Statement documents relating to these registrants. The prospectus filed in Part I of the Registration Statement is not being amended hereby and has, therefore, been omitted from this post-effective amendment.

PART II
INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Indemnification of Directors and Officers

     Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft

     Under German law, a corporation may indemnify its officers, and, under certain circumstances, German labor law requires a stock corporation to do so. However, a corporation may not, as a general matter, indemnify members of the Management Board or the Supervisory Board. A German stock corporation may, however, purchase directors’ and officers’ insurance. The insurance may be subject to any mandatory restrictions imposed by German law. In addition, German law may permit a corporation to indemnify a member of the Management Board or the Supervisory Board for attorneys’ fees incurred if such member is the successful party in a suit in a country, like the United States, where winning parties are required to bear their own costs, if German law would have required the losing party to pay the member’s attorneys’ fees had the suit been brought in Germany and for attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with other proceedings.

     Members of the registrant’s Supervisory Board and Management Board and officers of the registrant are covered by customary liability insurance, including insurance against liabilities under the Securities Act.

Deutsche Bank Contingent Capital Trust V

     Section 8, 9 and 10 of the initial trust agreement relating to the formation of Deutsche Bank Contingent Capital Trust V provide as follows regarding indemnification:

     “8. (a) The Trustees (the “Fiduciary Indemnified Persons”) shall not be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Trust, the Sponsor, any other Trustee or any holder of the Trust Securities for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons in good faith on behalf of the Trust and in a manner the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by this Trust Agreement or by law, except that the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of the Fiduciary Indemnified Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

     (b) The Fiduciary Indemnified Persons shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Trust and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Trust by any person as to matters the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons reasonably believe are within such other person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Trust, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which distributions to holders of Trust Securities might properly be paid.

     9. The Sponsor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, (a) to indemnify and hold harmless each Fiduciary Indemnified Person, or any of its officers, directors, shareholders, employees, representatives or agents, from and against any loss, damage, liability, tax, penalty, expense or claim of any kind or nature whatsoever incurred by the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by reason of the creation, operation or termination of the Trust in a manner the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by this Trust Agreement, except that no Fiduciary Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons by reason of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions; and (b) to advance expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) incurred by a Fiduciary Indemnified Person in defending any claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, from time to time, prior to the final disposition of such claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, upon receipt by the Trust of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Fiduciary Indemnified Persons to repay such amount if it shall be determined that such Fiduciary Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified as authorized in the preceding subsection. Promptly after receipt by a Fiduciary Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any action, such Fiduciary Indemnified Person will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Sponsor under this Section 9, notify the Sponsor in writing of the commencement thereof, provided that failure to give such prompt notice shall not impair the obligations of the Sponsor hereunder except to the extent that such failure to provide notice materially prejudices the Sponsor. The Sponsor shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the Sponsor’s choice at the Sponsor’s expense to represent the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons in any action for which indemnification is sought; provided, however, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons. The Sponsor will not, without the prior written consent of the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification may be sought unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Fiduciary Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding.

     10. The provisions of Section 8 and Section 9 shall survive the termination of this Trust Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the Fiduciary Indemnified Persons.”

Deutsche Bank Contingent Capital LLC V

     The Delaware Limited Liability Company Act provides that, subject to such standards and restrictions, if any, as are set forth in its limited liability company agreement, a limited liability company may, and shall have the power to, indemnify and hold harmless any member or manager or other person from and against any and all claims and demands whatsoever.

     Section 18 of the initial LLC agreement relating to the formation of Deutsche Bank Contingent Capital LLC V provides as follows regarding indemnification:

     18. Exculpation and Indemnification. No member of the Company or Officer shall be liable to the Company, or any other person or entity who is bound by this Agreement, for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such member of the Company or Officer in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such member or Officer by this Agreement, except that a member of the Company or Officer shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such member’s or Officer’s willful misconduct. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, a member of the Company or Officer shall be entitled to indemnification from the Company for any loss, damage or claim incurred by such member or Officer by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such member or Officer in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such member or Officer by this Agreement, except that no member of the Company or Officer shall be entitled to be indemnified in respect of any loss, damage or claim incurred by such member or Officer by reason of willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions; provided, however, that any indemnity under this Section 18 shall be provided out of and to the extent of Company assets only, and no member of the Company shall have personal liability on account thereof.

Exhibits

     Reference is made to the Exhibit Index included herewith which is incorporated herein by reference.

Undertakings

     The undersigned Registrants hereby undertake:

     (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

          (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

          (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of a prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

          (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that (i), (ii) and (iii) above do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by Deutsche Bank AG pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

 (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered in the post-effective amendment, and the offering of those securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

 (3) To remove from registration by means of post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

2

 (4) In the case of Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft, to file a post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any financial statements required by Item 8.A of Form 20-F at the start of any delayed offering or throughout a continuous offering. Financial statements and information otherwise required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act need not be furnished, provided that Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft includes in the prospectus, by means of a post-effective amendment, financial statements required pursuant to this paragraph and other information necessary to ensure that all other information in the prospectus is at least as current as the date of those financial statements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a post-effective amendment need not be filed to include financial statements and information required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act or Item 8.A of Form 20-F if such financial statements and information are contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.

 (5) That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

     (i) Each prospectus filed by a Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

     (ii) Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5) or (b)(7) as part of the registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii) or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by Section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which the prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

     (6) That, for the purpose of determining liability of a Registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, each undersigned Registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of such undersigned Registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, such undersigned Registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

          (i) Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of such undersigned Registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

          (ii) Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of such undersigned Registrant or used or referred to by such undersigned Registrant;

          (iii) The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about such undersigned Registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of such undersigned Registrant; and

          (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by such undersigned Registrant to the purchaser.

     (7) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

     (8) To file an application for the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee to act under subsection (a) of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act in accordance with the rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of the Trust Indenture Act.

3

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, the Registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrants will, unless in the opinion of their counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by them is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

The presence (whether in person or by telephone) of a Regular Trustee at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting except where a Regular Trustee attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any activity on the ground that the meeting has not been lawfully called or convened. Unless provided otherwise in this Agreement, any action of the Regular Trustees may be taken at a meeting by vote of a majority of the Regular Trustees present (whether in person or by telephone) and eligible to vote with respect to such matter, provided that a Quorum is present, or without a meeting by the unanimous written consent of the Regular Trustees. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any and all actions of the Regular Trustees may be taken by the unanimous written consent of all Regular Trustees.

     (b) The Regular Trustees shall have power to delegate from time to time to such of their number or to officers of the Trust the doing of such things and the execution of such instruments either in the name of the Trust or the names of the Regular Trustees or otherwise as the Regular Trustees may deem expedient, to the extent such delegation is not prohibited by applicable law or contrary to the provisions of the Trust, as set forth herein.

ARTICLE 7
CAPITAL PAYMENTS

          Section 7.01. Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage. The provisions of this Section 7.01 shall apply solely with respect to Capital Payments in respect of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities.

          (a) Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be due and payable to the extent Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities have been declared (or deemed declared) and paid; provided that Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall also be due and payable to the extent Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities have been deemed declared, but were not authorized to be paid (and were not paid) due to a lack of Operating Profits at the Company. Holders of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be entitled to receive due and payable Capital Payments in cash on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities held by them payable quarterly in arrears on each Payment Date. Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities payable on each Payment Date shall accrue for the related Payment Period. Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be cumulative only to the same extent that Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities are deferred and constitute Arrears of Payments pursuant to the LLC Agreement. Arrears of Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities shall be paid only under the circumstances described in the LLC Agreement.

          (b) For each Payment Period, Capital Payments shall accrue on the Liquidation Preference Amount of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage, if any, of each Trust Preferred Security at a fixed rate per annum equal to the Stated Rate, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

          (c) If any Payment Date or redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the amounts payable on such Payment Date or redemption date will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, without adjustment, interest or further payment as a result of such delay in payment.

          (d) Capital Payments, Arrears of Payments and other distributions on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be paid out of, and amounts available to the Trust for such payments shall be limited to, amounts received by the Trust from the Company with respect to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities pursuant to the provisions of the LLC Agreement and from the Guarantor pursuant to the Class B Preferred Guarantee or the Trust Preferred Guarantee (including payments by the Guarantor under the Trust Preferred Guarantee to fund Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities in the event of non-payment of deemed declared Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities due to a lack of Operating Profits at the Company).

37

          (e) Each Capital Payment shall be payable to the Holders of record as they appear on the Register on the corresponding record date. The record dates for the Trust Preferred Securities shall be (A) for Global Trust Preferred Certificates, the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Payment Date and (B) for Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates, the end of business of the 15^th Business Day prior to the relevant Payment Date.

          (f) If and to the extent that the Company makes a distribution on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities held by the Property Trustee or the Bank makes a payment under the Class B Preferred Guarantee (the amount of any such distribution or payment being a “Payment Amount” with respect to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities), the Holder of the Trust Common Security shall be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of such Payment Amount if, as and when funds are held by the Property Trustee in a Property Account; provided, however, upon the liquidation of the Trust and during the continuance of a default under the Initial Obligation or the Substitute Obligations or a failure by the Bank to perform any obligation under the Class B Preferred Guarantee, holders of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities will have a preference over the holder of the Trust Common Security with respect to payments of Capital Payments and other distributions and amounts upon redemption or liquidation of the Trust.

          (g) All payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities and any payment upon redemption or liquidation thereof, will be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties or governmental charges of any nature whatsoever imposed, levied or collected by or on behalf of the United States or Germany or, during any period in which any Substitute Obligations are outstanding, the jurisdiction of residence of any obligor on such Substitute Obligations (or any jurisdiction from which payments are made) (each, a “Relevant Jurisdiction”) or by or on behalf of any political subdivision or authority therein or thereof having the power to tax (collectively, “Withholding Taxes”), unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. In such event, the Trust will pay, as additional Capital Payments (or Arrears of Payments, as the case may be), such additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) to the Holders of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by the holders of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities after such deduction or withholding will equal the amounts that would have been received had no such deduction or withholding been required; provided however, no such Additional Amounts will be payable in respect of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities:

          (i) in respect of each portion of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities for Payment Periods ending prior to the Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Election, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, if and to the extent that the Company is unable to pay corresponding amounts in respect of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities because such payment would exceed the Distributable Profits of the Bank for the fiscal year in respect of which the relevant Capital Payments are payable (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amount of the Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and dividends or other distributions or payments on Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage, if any, of the Trust Preferred Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such

38

Distributable Profits on or prior to the date on which such Additional Amounts will be payable), in which case such Additional Amounts shall be deferred and will thereupon constitute Arrears of Payments;

          (ii) with respect to any Withholding Taxes that are payable by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of the Trust Preferred Securities having some connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction other than by reason only of the mere holding or beneficial ownership of the Trust Preferred Securities;

          (iii) with respect to any Withholding Taxes which are deducted or withheld pursuant to (A) European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other European Union Directive or Regulation implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income, or (B) any international treaty or understanding entered into for the purpose of facilitating cooperation in the reporting and collection of savings income and to which (x) the United States, and (y) the European Union or Germany are parties, or (C) any provision of law implementing, or complying with, or introduced to conform with, such Directive, Regulation, treaty or understanding; or

          (iv) to the extent such deduction or withholding can be avoided or reduced if the Holder or beneficial owner of the Trust Preferred Securities makes a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to the relevant tax authority or complies with any reasonable certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement imposed by the relevant tax authority; provided, however, that the exclusion set forth in this clause (iv) shall not apply if the certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement would be materially more onerous (in form, procedure or substance of information required to be disclosed) to the Holder or beneficial owner of Trust Preferred Securities than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under U.S. tax law, regulation and administrative practice (such as IRS Forms W-8 and W-9).

          Section 7.02. Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage. The provisions of this Section 7.02 shall apply solely with respect to Capital Payments in respect of the Tier 1 Percentage for all Payment Periods from and including the Payment Period during which the Tier 1 Qualification Election with respect to the Specified Increment arising from such Tier 1 Qualification Election, occurred.

     (a) Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be due and payable to the extent Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities have been declared (or deemed declared) and paid; provided that Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall also be due and payable to the extent Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities have been deemed declared, but were not authorized to be paid (and were not paid) due to a lack of Operating Profits at the Company. Holders of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be entitled to receive due and payable Capital Payments in cash on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities held by them, on a non-cumulative basis, payable quarterly in arrears on each

39

Payment Date. Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities payable on each Payment Date shall accrue for the related Payment Period.

     (b) For each Payment Period, Capital Payments shall accrue on the Liquidation Preference Amount of the Tier 1 Percentage of each Trust Preferred Security at a fixed rate per annum equal to the Stated Rate, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

     (c) If any Payment Date or redemption date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the amounts payable on such Payment Date or redemption date will be paid on the next succeeding Business Day, without adjustment, interest or further payment as a result of such delay in payment.

     (d) Capital Payments and other distributions on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be paid out of, and amounts available to the Trust for such payments shall be limited to, amounts received by the Trust from the Company with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities pursuant to the provisions of the LLC Agreement and from the Guarantor pursuant to the Class B Preferred Guarantee or the Trust Preferred Guarantee (including payments by the Guarantor under the Trust Preferred Guarantee to fund Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities in the event of non-payment of deemed declared Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities due to a lack of Operating Profits at the Company).

     (e) Each Capital Payment shall be payable to the Holders of record as they appear on the Register on the corresponding record date. The record dates for the Trust Preferred Securities shall be (A) for Global Trust Preferred Certificates, the end of the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Payment Date and (B) for Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates, the end of business of the 15^th Business Day prior to the relevant Payment Date.

     (f) If and to the extent that the Company makes a distribution on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities held by the Property Trustee or the Guarantor makes a payment under the Class B Preferred Guarantee (the amount of any such distribution or payment being a “Payment Amount” with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities), the Holder of the Trust Common Security shall be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of such Payment Amount if, as and when funds are held by the Property Trustee in a Property Account; provided, however, upon the liquidation of the Trust and during the continuance of a default under the Initial Obligation or the Substitute Obligations or a failure by the Guarantor to perform any obligation under the Guarantees, holders of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities will have a preference over the holder of the Trust Common Security with respect to payments of Capital Payments and other distributions and amounts upon redemption or liquidation of the Trust.

     (g) The payment of Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities and any amount payable in liquidation or upon redemption thereof,

40

shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Withholding Taxes, unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. In such event, the Trust will pay, as additional Capital Payments, Additional Amounts to the Holders of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities; provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities:

          (i) in respect of each portion of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities for Payment Periods from and including the Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Election, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, if and to the extent that the Company is unable to pay corresponding amounts in respect of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities because of insufficient Distributable Profits of the Bank for the preceding fiscal year (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amounts of Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and dividends or other distributions or payments on Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such Distributable Profits on or prior to the date on which such Additional Amounts will be payable);

          (ii) with respect to any Withholding Taxes that are payable by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of the Trust Preferred Securities having some connection with any Relevant Jurisdiction other than by reason only of the mere holding or beneficial ownership of the Trust Preferred Securities;

          (iii) with respect to any Withholding Taxes which are deducted or withheld pursuant to (A) European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other European Union Directive or Regulation implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income, or (B) any international treaty or understanding entered into for the purpose of facilitating cooperation in the reporting and collection of savings income and to which (x) the United States, and (y) the European Union or Germany are parties, or (C) any provision of law implementing, or complying with, or introduced to conform with, such Directive, Regulation, treaty or understanding; or

          (iv) to the extent such deduction or withholding can be avoided or reduced if the Holder or beneficial owner of the Trust Preferred Securities makes a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to the relevant tax authority or complies with any reasonable certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement imposed by the relevant tax authority; provided, however, that the exclusion set forth in this clause (iv) shall not apply if the certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement would be materially more onerous (in form, procedure or substance of information required to be disclosed) to the Holder or beneficial owner of Trust Preferred Securities than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under U.S. tax law, regulation and administrative practice (such as IRS Forms W-8 and W-9).

ARTICLE 8
ISSUANCE OF TRUST SECURITIES

          Section 8.01. Designation and General Provisions Regarding Trust Securities.

     (a) The Regular Trustees shall on behalf of the Trust issue one class of preferred securities representing preferred undivided beneficial ownership interests in the Trust Estate and one class of common securities representing undivided beneficial ownership interests in the Trust Estate as follows:

          (i) Trust Preferred Securities. There is hereby designated as one class of preferred securities the Trust Preferred Securities (the “Trust Preferred Securities”). The Trust Preferred Securities shall be issued in minimum denomination of a liquidation preference amount of U.S.$25 per Trust Preferred Security (the “Liquidation Preference Amount”) or greater integral multiples thereof. The Trust Preferred Securities shall be issued with an aggregate Liquidation Preference Amount of U.S.$1,265,000,000. The Global Trust Preferred Certificates evidencing the Trust Preferred Securities shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A-1 to this Agreement, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom or in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Regular Trustees (as evidenced by their execution thereof), and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends and endorsements as the Regular Trustee may deem appropriate, or as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice or as may be requested to comply with any law or to conform to the rules of any stock exchange on which the Trust Preferred Securities are listed.

          (ii) Trust Common Security. There is hereby designated as one class of common securities the Trust Common Security (the “Trust Common Security” and, together with the Trust Preferred Securities, the “Trust Securities”). The Trust Common Security shall be issued with an aggregate liquidation amount of U.S.$25. The Trust Common Security Certificate evidencing the Trust Common Security shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit B to this Agreement, with such changes and additions thereto or deletions therefrom, or in any other manner as is reasonably acceptable to the Regular Trustees (as evidenced by their execution thereof), and may have such letters, numbers or other marks of identification or designation and such legends and endorsements as the Regular Trustee may deem appropriate, or as may be required by ordinary usage, custom or practice or as may be requested to comply with any law.

     (b) The Trust shall issue no securities or other interests in the Trust Estate of the Trust other than the Trust Preferred Securities and the Trust Common Security.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will (a) if so required by the Bank in connection with the exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option or (b) from time to time on or prior June 30, 2013 and without the consent of the holders of the Class B Preferred Securities, issue additional Class B Preferred Securities having the same terms as the Class B Preferred Securities in all respects except for the issue date, the date from which Capital Payments accrue on the Class B Preferred Securities, the issue price, and

42

any other deviations required for compliance with applicable law, so as to form a single series with the Class B Preferred Securities. In such circumstances, and without consent of the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, the Trust will issue additional Trust Preferred Securities having the same terms and conditions as the Trust Preferred Securities in all respects except for the issue date, the date from which Capital Payments accrue on the Trust Preferred Securities, the issue price, and any other deviations required for compliance with applicable law, so as to form a single series with the Trust Preferred Securities, in consideration for the receipt of such additional Class B Preferred Securities equal to the aggregate liquidation preference amount of such additional Trust Preferred Securities.

     (c) Each of the Trust Securities shall be signed by a Regular Trustee for the Trust by manual or facsimile signature. No Trust Security shall be valid or obligatory for any purposes or entitled to any benefit under this Agreement until authenticated by the manual signature of an Authorized Officer of the Property Trustee. Such signature shall be conclusive evidence that the Trust Security has been authenticated and delivered under this Agreement and entitled to its benefits. All Trust Securities shall be dated the date of their execution. Trust Securities bearing signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures shall have been affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Trust or authenticate on behalf of the Property Trustee, as applicable shall be validly issued notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them shall have ceased to be so authorized prior to the delivery of such Trust Securities. Upon a written order of the Trust, signed by at least one Regular Trustee, directing the Property Trustee to authenticate and deliver Trust Securities, the Property Trustee shall authenticate and deliver the Trust Securities for original issue.

     The Property Trustee is authorized to enter into the agency agreement (the “Agency Agreement”) dated the date hereof with the Bank, the Paying Agent, the Company and the Trust, and is authorized to appoint as Authenticating Agent the Paying Agent or another agent acceptable to the Trust to authenticate the Trust Preferred Securities. An Authenticating Agent may authenticate Trust Preferred Securities whenever the Property Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Agreement to authentication by the Property Trustee includes authentication by such Authenticating Agent. An Authenticating Agent has the same rights as the Property Trustee to transact with the Sponsor or any Affiliate of the Sponsor. Pursuant to the Agency Agreement, the initial Authenticating Agent shall be Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas.

     (d) The consideration received by the Trust for the issuance of the Trust Securities shall constitute a contribution to the capital of the Trust and shall not constitute a loan to the Trust.

     (e) Upon issuance of the Trust Securities as provided in this Agreement, the Trust Securities so issued shall be deemed to be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable, subject to Section 11.01 hereof with respect to the Trust Common Security.

43

     (f) Every Person, by virtue of having become a Holder of a Trust Preferred Security in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be deemed to have expressly assented and agreed to the terms of, and shall be bound by, this Agreement.

     (g) Upon receipt of the Tier 1 Qualification Election notice provided for in Section 10.04(k) of the LLC Agreement, the Regular Trustees, on behalf of the Trust shall:

          (i) promptly forward such notice to the Authenticating Agent and shall direct the Authenticating Agent to reflect the appropriate Tier 1 Percentage and Upper Tier 2 Percentage as of the first day of the Payment Period during which the Tier 1 Qualification Election occurred on Schedule 1 of each Global Trust Preferred Certificate; and

          (ii) as soon as practicable announce, by publication in a newspaper of general circulation in the United States,

     (A) that the Bank has made a Tier 1 Qualification Election;

     (B) the Specified Increment to which that Tier 1 Qualification Election pertains;

     (C) that the Specified Increment will be treated as Tier 1 Percentage for all purposes under this Agreement from the first day of the Payment Period in which that Tier 1 Qualification Election occurred, specifying the date of such first day; and

     (D) the total Tier 1 Percentage of each Trust Preferred Security following that Tier 1 Qualification Election.

     The cost of such announcement shall be an expense of and be paid by the Bank.

          Section 8.02. Priority of Payments on Trust Securities. Payment of Capital Payments on, and other distributions and amounts on redemption of the Trust Securities or liquidation of the Trust shall be made pro rata among the Trust Common Security and the Trust Preferred Securities, based on the Liquidation Preference Amount and the liquidation amount thereof; provided, however, that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a failure to pay interest or additional interest amounts, if any, under the Initial Obligation or the Substitute Obligations or a failure by the Bank to perform any obligation under the Trust Preferred Guarantee or the Class B Preferred Guarantee, no payment of Capital Payments, Arrears of Payments or any other distributions of amounts, including upon redemption or liquidation of the Trust will be made to the holder of the Trust Common Security, unless payment in full in cash of all accumulated and unpaid Capital Payments and Arrears of Payments on, and amounts on redemption of, the Trust Preferred Securities have been made or provided for.

          Section 8.03. Redemption of Trust Securities.

44

     (a) Except as set forth in Section 8.02, upon a purchase of the Class B Preferred Securities by the Company upon redemption or otherwise, the proceeds from such purchase shall be simultaneously applied to redeem the Trust Securities for an amount equal to U.S.$25 per Trust Preferred Security and an amount equal to U.S.$25 per Trust Common Security, plus Additional Amounts, if any, plus Arrears of Payments, if any, plus any accumulated and unpaid Capital Payments in respect of the then current Payment Period to but excluding the date of redemption (the “Redemption Price”). In the event that payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Trust Securities is improperly withheld or refused and not paid, Capital Payments on such Trust Securities shall continue to accrue at the Stated Rate from the designated Redemption Date to the date of actual payment of the Redemption Price, in which case the actual payment date shall be considered the Redemption Date for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price. The Property Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities of the Company’s intention to redeem the Class B Preferred Securities.

     (b) If, at any time, a Trust Special Redemption Event shall occur and be continuing, the Regular Trustees shall, within 90 days following the occurrence of such Trust Special Redemption Event, after consultation with DTC, the Paying Agent and the Property Trustee dissolve the Trust upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to the Holders of the Trust Securities, with the result that, after satisfaction of the claims of creditors of the Trust, if any, Class B Preferred Securities would be distributed on a pro rata basis to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities and the Holder of the Trust Common Security in liquidation of such Holders’ interest in the Trust; provided, however, that, if, at such time, the Trust has the opportunity to eliminate, within such 90-day period, the Trust Special Redemption Event by taking some Ministerial Action, then the Trust shall pursue such measure in lieu of dissolution.

     (c) If the Class B Preferred Securities are distributed to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, the Bank shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Class B Preferred Securities to be eligible for clearing and settlement through DTC or a successor clearing agent and to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or such other securities exchange or similar organization as the Trust Preferred Securities are then listed or quoted.

     (d) On the date fixed for any distribution of Class B Preferred Securities, upon dissolution of the Trust, (i) the Trust Securities shall be deemed to be redeemed and no longer be deemed to be outstanding and (ii) certificates representing Trust Securities shall be deemed to represent the Class B Preferred Securities having an aggregate liquidation preference amount equal to the Liquidation Preference Amount of, and bearing accumulated and unpaid Capital Payments equal to accumulated and unpaid Capital Payments on, such Trust Securities until such certificates are presented to the Company or its agent for transfer or reissuance.

     (e) Unless otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Trust Securities shall not be redeemable at any time at the option of the Holders of the Trust Securities.

45

     (f) Any Trust Securities that are redeemed shall be canceled, and not reissued, following their redemption.

     (g) No vote or consent of the Holders of any Trust Securities shall be required for the Trust to redeem and cancel any Trust Securities or distribute Class B Preferred Securities in accordance with this Agreement and the terms of the Trust Securities.

          Section 8.04. Redemption Procedures.

     (a) Redemption Notice. An irrevocable notice of redemption (including, if applicable, an irrevocable notice of distribution of Class B Preferred Securities) of the Trust Securities (a “Redemption Notice”) shall be given by the Trust in the manner set forth in Section 15.01 hereof to each Holder of Trust Securities to be redeemed not fewer than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days before the proposed Redemption Date (which, in the case of a redemption of the Class B Preferred Securities, shall be the same as the Class B Redemption Date) or such other time period or in such manner as may be required by the relevant regulatory authorities. A Redemption Notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first delivered, telecopied or mailed by first-class mail, registered or certified postage prepaid, to Holders of the Trust Securities. Each Redemption Notice shall be addressed to the Holders of the Trust Securities at the address of each such Holder appearing in the Register. No defect in the Redemption Notice or in the delivery thereof with respect to any Holder shall affect the validity of the redemption or exchange proceedings with respect to any other Holder.

     (b) Payment of Redemption Price. Except in the case of a distribution of the Class B Preferred Securities to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, and provided the Company or the Guarantor has paid to the Property Trustee a sufficient amount of cash in connection with the related redemption of Class B Preferred Securities, then by 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Redemption Date, the Property Trustee shall (i) with respect to Global Trust Preferred Certificates, irrevocably deposit with DTC funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price thereon together with irrevocable instructions to DTC to make such payment or (ii) with respect to Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates, irrevocably deposit with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price thereon, together with irrevocable instructions to the Paying Agent to make such payment by check mailed to the relevant Holder (at its address in the Register on the Redemption Date) upon surrender of its Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates.

     (c) Upon satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, all rights of Holders of such Trust Securities so called for redemption shall cease on the Redemption Date, except the right of the Holders of such Trust Securities to receive the applicable Redemption Price (without interest thereon from and after the Redemption Date) or distribution of Class B Preferred Securities with the applicable liquidation preference amount.

          If any Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, payment of all amounts otherwise payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, without adjustment, interest or further payment as a result of such delay in payment.

46

     (d) Subject to the foregoing redemption provisions and procedures and applicable law (including, without limitation, U.S. federal securities law), the Bank or its Subsidiaries may at any time and from time to time purchase outstanding Trust Preferred Securities by tender, in the secondary market or by private agreement.

          Section 8.05. Voting Rights of Trust Preferred Securities.

     (a) Except as shall be otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the LLC Agreement or as otherwise required by the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, the Trust Indenture Act or other applicable law, the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities shall have no right or power to vote on any question or matter or in any proceeding or to be presented at, or to receive notice of, any meeting of Holders of Trust Securities.

     (b) Notwithstanding that Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities are entitled to vote or consent under certain circumstances described in this Agreement, any of the Trust Preferred Securities that are beneficially owned by the Bank, or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, either directly or indirectly, shall not, in such case, be entitled to vote or consent and shall, for purposes of such vote or consent, be treated as if such Trust Preferred Securities were not outstanding, except for the Trust Preferred Securities purchased or acquired by the Bank or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates in connection with transactions effected by or for the account of customers of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or in connection with the distribution or trading of or market-making in connection with such Trust Preferred Securities in the ordinary course of business; provided, however, that Persons (other than Subsidiaries or Affiliates of the Bank) to whom the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates have pledged Trust Preferred Securities may vote or consent with respect to such pledged Trust Preferred Securities pursuant to the terms of such pledge.

     (c) Subject to the requirement of the Property Trustee obtaining a tax opinion in certain circumstances set forth in Section 8.05(g) hereof, the Holders of a Majority of the Trust Preferred Securities have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Agreement, including the right to direct the Property Trustee, as Holder of the Class B Preferred Securities, to (i) exercise the remedies available to it under the LLC Agreement as a Holder of the Class B Preferred Securities or (ii) consent to any amendment, modification, or termination of the LLC Agreement or the Class B Preferred Securities where such consent shall be required; provided, however, that where a consent or action under the LLC Agreement would require the consent or action of the Holders of a stated percentage greater than 50% of the Class B Preferred Securities affected thereby, only the Holders of at least the same percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities may direct the Property Trustee to give such consent or take such action on behalf of the Trust.

     (d) If the Property Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Class B Preferred Securities after a Holder of Trust Preferred Securities has made a written request, such Holder of Trust Preferred Securities may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, institute a legal proceeding directly against the Company to enforce the Property

47

Trustee’s rights under the Class B Preferred Securities without first instituting any legal proceeding against the Property Trustee, the Trust or any other person or entity.

     (e) Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the right of a Holder of Trust Preferred Securities, if the Trust has failed to pay the Redemption Price with respect to Trust Preferred Securities duly called for redemption, any Capital Payments, including Additional Amounts, if applicable, that are due and owing, to directly institute a proceeding in such Holder’s own name against the Trust for enforcement of the Trust’s obligation to make such payment or against the Guarantor for enforcement of the Trust Preferred Guarantee.

     (f) In the event the consent of the Property Trustee, as the holder of the Class B Preferred Securities, is required under the LLC Agreement with respect to any amendment, modification or termination of the LLC Agreement, the Property Trustee shall request the direction of the Holders of the Trust Securities with respect to such amendment, modification or termination and shall vote with respect to such amendment, modification or termination as directed by a Majority of the Trust Securities voting together as a single class; provided, however, that where a consent under the LLC Agreement would require the consent of the holders of a stated percentage greater than 50% of the Class B Preferred Securities, the Property Trustee may only give such consent at the direction of the Holders of at least the same stated percentage of the Trust Securities.

     (g) The Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to take any of the actions described in Section 8.05(c)(i) or (ii) above unless the Property Trustee has obtained an opinion of independent tax counsel to the effect that following such action, the Trust will be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes and each Holder of the Trust Securities will be treated as owning an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Estate.

     (h) Any required vote of Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities may be given at a separate meeting of Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities convened for such purpose, at a meeting of all of the Holders of the Trust Securities or pursuant to a written consent. The Regular Trustees shall cause a notice of any meeting at which Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities are entitled to vote, or of any matter upon which action may be taken by written consent of such Holders, to be given to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities in the manner set forth in Section 15.01 hereof. Each such notice shall include a statement setting forth the following information: (i) the date of such meeting or the date by which such action is to be taken, (ii) a description of any resolution proposed for adoption at such meeting on which such Holders are entitled to vote or of such matter upon which written consent is sought and (iii) instructions for the delivery of proxies or consents.

The Holder of the Trust Common Security is entitled, subject to Article 6 hereof, to vote to appoint, remove or replace any Trustee or to increase or decrease the number of Trustees.

     (b) Only after all Enforcement Events have been cured, waived, or otherwise eliminated and subject to the requirement of the Property Trustee obtaining a tax opinion in certain circumstances pursuant to Section 8.06(c), the Holder of the Trust Common Security has the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Agreement, including the right to direct the Property Trustee, as holder of the Class B Preferred Security, to (i) exercise the remedies available to it under the LLC Agreement as a holder of the Class B Preferred Securities (with regard to the Class B Preferred Securities relating to the Trust Common Security) or (ii) consent to any amendment, modification, or termination of the LLC Agreement or the Class B Preferred Securities (with regard to the Class B Preferred Securities relating to the Trust Common Security) where such consent shall be required.

     (c) The Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to take any of the actions described in Section 8.06(b)(i) and (ii) above unless the Property Trustee has obtained an opinion of independent tax counsel to the effect that, following such action, the Trust will be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes and each Holder of the Trust Securities will be treated as owning an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Estate.

     (d) If the Property Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Class B Preferred Securities after a Holder of the Trust Common Security has made a written request, such Holder of the Trust Common Security may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, institute a legal proceeding directly against the Company, to enforce the Property Trustee’s rights under the Class B Preferred Securities without first instituting any legal proceeding against the Property Trustee or any other person or entity.

     (e) The voting rights provided pursuant to this Section 8.06 and applicable laws may be waived by the Holder of the Trust Common Security by written notice to the Property Trustee and in accordance with the applicable laws.

          Section 8.07. Paying Agent. The Trust shall maintain in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York, an office or agency where the Trust Preferred Securities may be presented for payment (“Paying Agent”). The Regular Trustees may appoint the Paying Agent and may appoint one or more additional paying agents in such other locations as they shall determine. The term “Paying Agent” includes any additional paying agent. Any

The Trust may remove any Paying Agent or appoint a successor or additional Paying Agent on not less than 30 days’ notice to the Holders of the Trust Securities. The Trust shall notify the Property Trustee of the name and address of any Paying Agent not a party to this Agreement. If the Trust fails to appoint or maintain another entity as Paying Agent, the Property Trustee shall act as such. The Trust or any of its Affiliates may act as Paying Agent. Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas shall initially act as Paying Agent for the Trust Preferred Securities and the Trust Common Security. Any Paying Agent may resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Regular Trustees.

          Section 8.08. Listing. The Bank shall use its best efforts to cause the Trust Preferred Securities to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

          Section 8.09. Acceptance of Guarantees and Agreements. Each Holder and beneficial owner of the Trust Preferred Securities, by purchase and holding of its Trust Preferred Securities, is deemed (i) to agree to the provisions of the Trust Preferred Guarantee, including the subordination provisions therein, and (ii) to represent and warrant that on each day that it holds Trust Preferred Securities (or Class B Preferred Securities) either (A) it is not itself, and is not acquiring any Trust Preferred Securities (or Class B Preferred Securities) on behalf of or with “plan assets” of, an employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code, a governmental plan which is subject to any federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to such provisions of ERISA or the Code (“Similar Law”) or an entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of any such plan’s investment in the entity or (B) the purchase, holding and redemption of any Trust Preferred Securities (or Class B Preferred Securities) is exempt by reason of Section 408 (b) (17) of ERISA, Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code or U.S. Department of Labor prohibited transaction class exemption (“PTCE”) 96-23 (for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), PTCE 95-60 (for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTCE 91-38 (for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds), PTCE 90-1 (for certain transactions involving insurance company separate accounts), or PTCE 84-14 (for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers) or similar exemptions from Similar Law.

     (b) The Global Trust Preferred Certificates will be maintained on the book-entry deposit system of DTC in accordance with the procedures established by DTC. Beneficial ownership of such Global Trust Preferred Certificates will be evidenced solely through the book-entry records system maintained by DTC. Beneficial owners of Global Trust Preferred Certificates will not be recognized by the Trustees as “Holder” of the Global Trust Preferred Certificate or the Trust Preferred Security represented thereby, and beneficial owners of such Global Trust Preferred Certificates will only be able to exercise the rights of the Holders of Trust Preferred Securities indirectly through DTC and its participants and shall be subject to any agreements between the beneficial owners and DTC and/or its participants.

     (c) All of the Trust Preferred Securities issued in accordance with this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable interests in the Trust and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Agreement.

          Section 10.02. Deemed Security Holders. The Trustees may treat the Person in whose name any Global Trust Preferred Certificate or the Trust Common Security shall be registered in the Register as the sole Holder of such Global Trust Preferred Certificate or Trust Common Security, as applicable, and of the securities represented thereby for purposes of receiving Capital Payments and for all other purposes whatsoever and, accordingly, shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such Global Trust Preferred Certificate or Trust Common Security or in the securities represented thereby on the part of any Person, whether or not the Trust shall have actual or other notice thereof.

          Section 10.03. Global Trust Preferred Certificates. Unless and until Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates have been issued to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities pursuant to Section 10.06:

     (a) the provisions of this Section 10.03 shall be in full force and effect and to the extent that the provisions of this Section 10.03 conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 10.03 shall control;

     (b) the Trust and the Trustees shall be entitled to deal with DTC as the sole Holder of the Global Trust Preferred Certificates for all purposes of this Agreement (including the payment of Capital Payments on the Global Trust Preferred Certificates and exercising the rights of the Holders of Trust Preferred Securities under this Agreement, and receiving approvals, votes or consents hereunder) and shall have no obligation to the beneficial owners of the Trust Preferred Securities;

52

     (c) the rights of the beneficial owners of the Global Trust Preferred Certificates shall be exercised only through DTC as Holder of the Global Trust Preferred Certificates and its participants and shall be subject to any agreement between such beneficial owners and DTC and/or its participants;

     (d) all Capital Payments and any other payments due on account of or with respect to the Global Trust Preferred Certificate shall be made to DTC as provided herein and neither the Trust nor any Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall have any responsibility or liability for the disbursement of such payments by DTC or any participant to beneficial owners of Global Trust Preferred Certificates;

     (e) transfers of beneficial ownership of such Global Trust Preferred Certificates shall be made on the books and records of DTC and/or its participants;

     (f) solely for the purposes of determining whether the Holders of the requisite amount of Trust Preferred Securities have voted on any matter provided for in this Agreement, so long as Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates have not been issued, the Trustees may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected in relying on, any written instrument (including a proxy) delivered to the Trustees by DTC setting forth the beneficial owners of the Trust Preferred Securities votes or assigning the right to vote on any matter to any other Person either in whole or in part; and

     (g) notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, a Global Trust Preferred Certificate may not be transferred except by DTC in whole and not in part to its successor as a Clearing Agency or to a nominee or depositary of either thereof.

          Section 10.04. Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates shall have been issued pursuant to Section 10.06 hereof, the Regular Trustees shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to DTC as the registered Holder of the Trust Preferred Securities, and shall have no notice obligations to the beneficial owners of the Global Trust Preferred Certificate.

          Section 10.05. Appointment of Successor Clearing Agency. If DTC elects to discontinue its services as clearing agency with respect to the Trust Preferred Securities, the Regular Trustees shall use their best efforts to appoint a successor to DTC as a Clearing Agency with respect to such Trust Preferred Securities.

If DTC notifies the Trust that it is unwilling or unable to continue its services as depositary for the Trust Preferred Securities or ceases to be a “clearing agency” registered under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary or clearing agency is not appointed within 90 days after such discontinuance pursuant to Section 10.05, or if the Trust determines in its sole discretion that the Global Trust Preferred Certificate shall be exchangeable for Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates then:

          (i) Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates shall be prepared by the Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust with respect to the Trust Preferred Securities;

53

          (ii) upon surrender of each Global Trust Preferred Certificate by DTC, accompanied by registration instructions, the Property Trustee shall cause Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates to be delivered to those Persons who were beneficial owners of the Trust Preferred Securities represented by a Global Trust Preferred Certificate, in accordance with the instructions of DTC. Neither the Trustees nor the Trust shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and each of them may conclusively rely on and shall be protected in relying on, said instructions of DTC. Any Person receiving a Definitive Trust Preferred Certificate in accordance with this Section 10.06 shall be recognized as a Holder upon receipt of such Definitive Trust Preferred Certificate and shall be registered in the Register of the Trust as a Holder of Trust Preferred Securities; and

          (iii) any Capital Payments, Arrears of Payments or other payments due on Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates will be made by wire, transfer or by check mailed to the address of the Holder as it appears on the Register on the relevant record date. The final payment on any Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates, however, will be made only upon presentation, and surrender thereof at the office of the Paying Agent on a Business Day. Subject to applicable escheat laws, claims to Capital Payments on Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates, or amounts payable upon redemption, will become void unless presented for payment within a period of (i) with respect to Capital Payments, four years from the relevant Payment Date, or (ii) with respect to amounts payable upon redemption, ten years from the Redemption Date.

          Section 10.07. Registration of Trust Securities.

     The Registrar shall keep or cause to be kept a register for the Trust Securities issued hereunder (herein called the “Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Registrar shall provide for the registration of Trust Securities and of transfers and exchanges of Trust Securities as herein provided. The Register shall be in written form or capable of being converted into written form within a reasonable time. The Registrar shall record on the Register each Trust Security executed and delivered pursuant to this Agreement.

          Section 10.08. Transfer and Exchanges of Trust Securities.

     (a) Trust Securities may only be transferred, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and of the Trust Securities. Any transfer or purported transfer of any Trust Security not made in accordance with this Agreement shall be null and void.

     (b) Subject to this Article 10 (and, in the case of the Trust Common Security, subject to Section 4.03(a)), Trust Securities shall be freely transferable.

     (c) The Trustees and the Registrar shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Trust Security from and after the opening of business 15 days before the Redemption Date.

54

     (d) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of a Trust Security, but the Trustees or the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of a Trust Security.

     (e) Title to any Trust Security that is properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed instrument of transfer or endorsement shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the case of a negotiable instrument.

     (f) Certificates may be transferred upon surrender thereof by the Holder in person or by a duly authorized attorney, properly endorsed or accompanied by a properly endorsed instrument of transfer or endorsement, together with evidence of the payment of any transfer taxes or government charges that may be imposed in relation to such transfer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of a Certificate, the Regular Trustees and the Property Trustee shall cause one or more new Certificates to be executed and authenticated pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement in the name of the designated transferee or transferees. Global Trust Preferred Certificates and the Trust Common Security may only be transferred in whole but not in part. Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates may be transferred in whole or in part subject to the applicable minimum denomination requirements under this Agreement. If only part of Definitive Trust Preferred Certificates is transferred, a new Definitive Trust Preferred Certificate shall be issued to the transferor within three Business Days after the Registrar receives the Definitive Trust Preferred Certificate. The new Definitive Trust Preferred Certificate representing the Trust Preferred Securities that were not transferred shall be delivered to the transferor by uninsured mail at the risk of the transferor, to the address of the transferor in the Register. The new Definitive Trust Preferred Securities Certificate representing the Trust Preferred Securities that were transferred shall be sent to the transferee within three Business Days after the Trust receives the surrendered Definitive Trust Preferred Securities Certificate by uninsured mail at the risk of the transferee, to the address specified on the form of transfer.

     (g) At the option of the Holder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates in no less than the applicable minimum denominations in a like aggregate Liquidation Preference Amount or liquidation amount, as applicable. Upon surrender for registration of exchange of a Certificate, subject to the conditions to transfer set forth in this Agreement, the Regular Trustees and the Property Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver pursuant to the applicable provisions of this Agreement, a new Certificate of like aggregate Liquidation Preference Amount or liquidation amount, as applicable, as the Certificate surrendered for exchange.

     (h) As a condition precedent to the registration of the transfer or exchange of any Trust Security, the Registrar may require (i) production of proof satisfactory to it as to the identity and genuineness of any signature, (ii) compliance with such regulations, if any, as the Trustee or the Registrar may establish not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement and (iii) such other information as the Registrar may reasonably request.

55

     (i) Each Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled by the Property Trustee. Except as prohibited by applicable law or regulation, the Property Trustee or the Registrar may destroy such cancelled Certificate or otherwise dispose of it in accordance with its usual practices.

     (j) By acceptance of a Certificate, each transferee shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by this Agreement.

     (k) The Registrar shall not be responsible for ascertaining whether any transfer complies with, or otherwise to monitor or determine compliance with, the requirements or terms of the Securities Act, applicable state securities laws, ERISA, the Code or the 1940 Act; except that if a certificate is specifically required by the terms of this Section 10.08 to be provided to the Registrar by a prospective transferee, the Registrar shall be under a duty to receive and examine the same to determine whether it conforms substantially on its face to the applicable requirements of this Section 10.08.

          Section 10.09. Lost or Stolen Trust Securities, Etc. If (i) any mutilated Certificate shall be surrendered to the Registrar, or if the Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there shall be delivered to the Registrar, the Regular Trustee and the Property Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser or, as applicable, any protected purchaser, the Regular Trustees and the Property Trustee shall make available for delivery, in exchange for or in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of a like aggregate liquidation amount. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate, the Registrar, the Regular Trustee or the Property Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of a Certificate corresponding to that evidenced by the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

     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 Certificates.

ARTICLE 11
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY OF HOLDERS OF TRUST SECURITIES, TRUSTEES OR OTHERS

          Section 11.01. Liability.

     (a) Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Trust Preferred Guarantee and the terms of the Trust Securities, the Bank, the Guarantor, the Sponsor and the Trustees shall not be:

56

          (i) personally liable for the return of any portion of the capital contributions (or any return thereon) of the Holders of the Trust Securities, which shall be made solely from assets of the Trust; and

          (ii) required to pay to the Trust or to any Holder of the Trust Securities any deficit upon dissolution of the Trust or otherwise.

     (b) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the Holder of the Trust Common Security, by entering into this Agreement, agrees that it shall be liable directly to any creditor or claimant of or against the Trust for the entire amount of all of the debts and obligations of the Trust (other than obligations to the Holders of the Trust Securities in their capacities as Holders) to the extent not satisfied out of the Trust’s assets. This Section 11.01(b) shall automatically terminate upon (i) the adoption of final or temporary U.S. federal tax regulations which, if the Trust were not classified as a grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes, would result in the classification of the Trust as a partnership for U.S. federal tax purposes without regard to its organic characteristics and (ii) the taking of such action, if any, by the Trust or the Holders of the Trust Securities as may be necessary to achieve such classification.

     (c) Pursuant to Section 3803(a) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to shareholders of private corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

          Section 11.02. Exculpation.

     (a) No Indemnified Person shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Trust or any Covered Person for any loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith on behalf of the Trust and in a manner such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Agreement or by law, except that a Indemnified Person shall be liable for any such loss, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Indemnified Person’s negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

     (b) An Indemnified Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Trust and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Trust by any Person as to matters the Indemnified Person reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Trust, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Capital Payments and Arrears of Payments to Holders of the Trust Securities might properly be paid.

          Section 11.03. Fiduciary Duty.

57

     (a) To the extent that, at law or in equity, an Indemnified Person has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to any other Covered Person, an Indemnified Person acting under this Agreement shall not be liable to the Trust or to any other Covered Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of an Indemnified Person otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Indemnified Person.

     (b) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein:

          (i) whenever a conflict of interest exists or arises between an Indemnified Person and any Covered Person; or

          (ii) whenever this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or therein provides that an Indemnified Person shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms that are, fair and reasonable to the Trust or any Holder of the Trust Securities,

     the Indemnified Person shall resolve such conflict of interest, take such action or provide such terms, considering in each case the relative interest of each party (including its own interest) to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles. In the absence of bad faith by the Indemnified Person, the resolution, action or term so made, taken or provided by the Indemnified Person shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of the Indemnified Person at law or in equity or otherwise.

     (c) Whenever in this Agreement, an Indemnified Person is permitted or required to make a decision:

          (i) in its “discretion” or under a grant of similar authority, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to consider such interests and factors as it desires, including its own interests, and shall have no duty or obligation to give any consideration to any interest of or factors affecting the Trust or any other Person; or

          (ii) in its “good faith” or under another express standard, the Indemnified Person shall act under such express standard and shall not be subject to any other or different standard imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law.

          Section 11.04. Indemnification.

     (a)

          (i) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Bank shall indemnify and hold harmless any Bank Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action

58

by or in the right of the Trust) by reason of the fact that he is or was a Bank Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the Bank Indemnified Person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

          (ii) The Bank shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any Bank Indemnified Person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Trust to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a Bank Indemnified Person against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust and except that no such indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such Bank Indemnified Person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Trust unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of Delaware or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

          (iii) To the extent that a Bank Indemnified Person shall be successful on the merits or otherwise (including dismissal of an action without prejudice or the settlement of an action without admission of liability) in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 11.04(a), or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, he shall be indemnified by the Bank, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection therewith.

          (iv) Any indemnification under paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 11.04(a) (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Bank only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Bank Indemnified Person is proper in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in paragraphs (i) and (ii). Such determination shall be made (1) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a Quorum consisting of such Regular Trustees who were not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, (2) if such a Quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a Quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3) by the Holder of the Trust Common Security.

          (v) Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by a Bank Indemnified Person in defending a civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding referred to in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 11.04(a) shall be paid by the Bank in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such Bank Indemnified Person to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Bank as authorized in this Section 11.04(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no advance shall be made by the Bank if a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Regular Trustees by a majority vote of a Quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees, (ii) if such a Quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, if a Quorum of disinterested Regular Trustees so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion or (iii) the Holder of the Trust Common Security, that, based upon the facts known to the Regular Trustees, counsel or the Holder of the Trust Common Security at the time such determination is made, such Bank Indemnified Person acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust, or, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that such Bank Indemnified Person believed or had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In no event shall any advance be made in instances where the Regular Trustees, independent legal counsel or the Holder of the Trust Common Security reasonably determine that such person deliberately breached his duty to the Trust or to the Holder of the Trust Common Security.

          (vi) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other paragraphs of this Section 11.04(a) shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification and advancement of expenses may be entitled under any agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors of the Bank or Holders of the Trust Securities or otherwise. All rights to indemnification under this Section 11.04(a) shall be deemed to be provided by a contract between the Bank and each Bank Indemnified Person who serves in such capacity at any time while this Section 11.04(a) is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this Section 11.04(a) shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing.

          (vii) The Bank or the Trust may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a Bank Indemnified Person against any liability asserted against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of his status as such, whether or not the Bank would have the power to indemnify him against such liability under the provisions of this Section 11.04(a).

          (viii) For purposes of this Section 11.04(a), references to “the Trust” shall include, in addition to the resulting or surviving entity, any constituent entity (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger, so that any person who is or was a director, trustee, officer or employee of such constituent entity, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent entity as a director, trustee, officer, employee or agent of another entity, shall stand in the same position under the provisions of this Section 11.04(a) with respect to the resulting or surviving entity as he would have with respect to such constituent entity if its separate existence had continued.

60

          (ix) The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this Section 11.04(a) shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Bank Indemnified Person and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

     (b) The Bank agrees to indemnify the (i) Property Trustee, (ii) the Delaware Trustee, (iii) any Affiliate of the Property Trustee and (iv) any officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners, employees, representatives, custodians, nominees or agents of the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee (each of the Persons in (i) through (iv) being referred to as a “Fiduciary Indemnified Person”) for, and to hold each Fiduciary Indemnified Person harmless against, any loss, damage, claim, liability or expense including taxes (other than taxes based on the income of the Trustee) incurred without negligence or bad faith on the part of the Fiduciary Indemnified Person arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against or investigating any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder. The obligation to indemnify as set forth in this Section 11.04(b) shall survive the satisfaction and discharge of this Agreement.

          Section 11.05. Outside Businesses.

          Any Covered Person, the Bank, the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, similar or dissimilar to the business of the Trust, and the Trust and the Holders of the Trust Securities shall have no rights by virtue of this Agreement in and to such independent ventures or the income or profits derived therefrom, and the pursuit of any such venture, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. Any Covered Person, the Bank, the Delaware Trustee or the Property Trustee shall not be obligated to present any particular investment or other opportunity to the Trust even if such opportunity is of a character that, if presented to the Trust, could be taken by the Trust, and any Covered Person, the Bank, the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee shall have the right to take for its own account (individually or as a partner or fiduciary) or to recommend to others any such particular investment or other opportunity. Any Covered Person, the Delaware Trustee and the Property Trustee may engage or be interested in any financial or other transaction with the Bank or any Affiliate of the Bank, or may act as depositary for, trustee or agent for, or act on any committee or body of holders of, securities or other obligations of the Bank or its Affiliates.

This Trust Preferred Security is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement, as amended from time to time, the Holder by virtue of its acceptance hereof assents and by which the Holder is bound. This Global Trust Preferred Certificate does not purport to summarize the Trust Agreement. Reference is hereby made to the Trust Agreement (to which this Global Trust Preferred Certificate is subject and which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety as fully as if it were restated herein) for a statement of the duties, obligations, rights, interests and benefits of the registered Holder hereof and the rights, duties and immunities of the Property Trustee.

     (c) A Preferred Security shall be represented by a certificate which, in the case of a Class B Preferred Security, may be in global form in the circumstances set forth in Section 16.08. The Common Security shall not be evidenced by any certificate or other written instrument, but shall only be evidenced by this Agreement.

     (e) In purchasing the Preferred Securities, each Preferred Securityholder agrees with the Bank and the Company that the Bank, the Company and the Preferred Securityholders shall treat Preferred Securityholders as Holders of the Preferred Securities in the Company for all purposes, and not as the Holders of an interest in the Bank or in any other person.

The Common Security holders shall receive Capital Payments relating to such Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities only to the extent that (x) Capital Payments are not permitted to be declared on such Upper Tier 2 Percentage on any Class B Payment Date at the Stated Rate in full due to an order of the BaFin (or any other relevant regulatory authority) prohibiting the Bank from making any distribution of profits, (y) a declared or deemed declared Capital Payment on the Class B Preferred Securities does not become an Arrears of Payments pursuant to the provisions governing Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, and (z) the Company has sufficient Operating Profits. Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Class B Payment Date, the Common Securityholder will also be entitled to receive a distribution corresponding to the amount of any interest accrued on amounts deposited with the Bank under the Subordinated Deposit Agreement to the extent the Company has sufficient Operating Profits for such distribution; and

30

          (ii) with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, only if all Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, if any, in respect of the relevant Class B Payment Period have been declared and paid at the Stated Rate in full.

          Section 10.02. General Provisions Regarding Preferred Securities.

     (a) There is hereby authorized for issuance and sale by the Company securities designated as the Class A Preferred Security and the Class B Preferred Securities. The specific designation, stated rate, liquidation preference amount, redemption terms, voting rights, exchange limitations and other powers, preferences and special rights and limitations of the Class A Preferred Security and the Class B Preferred Securities are set forth in Section 10.03 (with respect to the Class A Preferred Security) and in Section 10.04 (with respect to the Class B Preferred Securities).

     (b) The Preferred Securities shall rank senior to all other Securities in respect of the right to receive capital payments including Capital Payments or other distributions and the right to receive payments out of the assets of the Company upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof. All Preferred Securities redeemed, purchased or otherwise acquired by the Company shall be canceled.

     (c) The Class A Preferred Security shall rank senior to the Class B Preferred Securities in respect of the right to receive payments out of the assets of the Company upon voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Company in accordance with the provisions hereof, provided that any payments made by the Guarantor pursuant to the Class B Preferred Guarantee shall be payable by the Company solely to the Class B Preferred Securityholders.

          Section 10.03. Class A Preferred Security.

     (a) Designation. There shall hereby be designated as a class of Preferred Securities one Class A Preferred Security (the “Class A Preferred Security”). The Class A Preferred Security shall have an aggregate liquidation preference amount of U.S.$25. The Class A Preferred Security, at any time outstanding, shall be owned by the Bank or one or more Qualified Subsidiaries.

     (b) Class A Capital Payment Rights. The Class A Preferred Securityholder shall be entitled to receive when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of assets of the Company legally available therefor, capital payments in cash or in assets of the Company. The Board of Directors is only authorized to declare capital payments on the Class A Preferred Security, and it is the Company’s intent that the Class A Preferred Securityholder will only receive capital payments in respect of Class B Payment Periods commencing on and after the date on which the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities exceeds zero, and then only to the extent that (i) Capital Payments are not declared on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and paid at the Stated Rate in full on any such Class B Payment Date, and (ii) the Company has sufficient Operating Profits. It is the intention of the Company not to pay capital payments on the Class A Preferred Securities.

31

Furthermore, the payment of capital payments on the Class A Preferred Security is not a condition to the payment of Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities.

     (c) Redemption Terms. The Class A Preferred Security shall not be redeemable.

     (d) Voting Rights. The Class A Preferred Securityholders shall not be entitled to vote other than as provided for elsewhere in this Agreement.

     (e) Liquidation Distribution. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Company, the Class A Preferred Securityholders shall be entitled to receive the Obligations (including interest accrued and unpaid thereon) as their liquidation distribution. For the avoidance of doubt, the Class A Preferred Securityholders shall not be entitled to share in any payments made by the Guarantor pursuant to the Class B Preferred Guarantee.

          Section 10.04. Class B Preferred Securities.

     (a) Designation. There shall hereby be designated as a class of Preferred Securities the Class B Preferred Securities (the “Class B Preferred Securities”). The Class B Preferred Securities shall have a liquidation preference amount of U.S.$25 per Class B Preferred Security (the “Class B Liquidation Preference Amount”). The Class B Preferred Securities shall be issued in an aggregate Class B Liquidation Preference Amount of U.S.$1,265,000,025.

     (b) Class B Capital Payment Rights.

          (i) Class B Preferred Securityholders shall be entitled to receive when, as and if declared (or deemed declared) by the Board of Directors out of assets of the Company legally available therefor, Capital Payments in cash on the Class B Preferred Securities held by them, payable quarterly in arrears on March 30, June 30, September 30 and December 30 of each year, (each a “Class B Payment Date”). Capital Payments payable on each Class B Payment Date shall accrue from and including the immediately preceding Class B Payment Date (or May 9, 2008 with respect to the Capital Payment payable June 30, 2008) to but excluding the relevant Class B Payment Date (each a “Class B Payment Period”). Capital Payments with respect to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities shall be cumulative and Capital Payments with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities shall be non-cumulative as provided in Section 10.04(b)(vi) below.

          (ii) For each Class B Payment Period Capital Payments shall accrue on the Class B Liquidation Preference Amount of each Class B Preferred Security at a fixed rate of 8.05% per annum (the “Stated Rate”), calculated on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

          (iii) If any Class B Payment Date or Class B Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, payment of all amounts otherwise payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, without adjustment, interest or further payment as a result of such delay in payment.

32

          (iv) Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities shall be paid out of amounts received by the Company on the Obligations held by the Company from time to time.

          (v) Each Capital Payment declared (or deemed to be declared) shall be payable to the Holders of record as they appear on the Register on the corresponding record date. The record dates for the Class B Preferred Securities shall be (A) for those Class B Preferred Securities held by the Property Trustee (regardless of their own form), so long as the Trust Preferred Securities remain in book-entry form, and for Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificates, the end of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the relevant Class B Payment Date and (B) in all other cases, the end of business on the 15^th Business Day prior to the relevant Class B Payment Date.

          (vi) Capital Payments on Class B Preferred Securities.

          (A) The provisions of this Section 10.04(b)(vi)(A) shall apply solely with respect to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, and shall have no force or effect with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities.

     (1) The right of Class B Preferred Securityholders to receive Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities is cumulative to the extent provided herein. If the Board of Directors does not declare a Capital Payment on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities in respect of any Class B Payment Period (and no such Capital Payment is deemed to be declared), Class B Preferred Securityholders shall have no right to receive a Capital Payment on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities in respect of such Class B Payment Period, and the Company shall have no obligation to pay a Capital Payment on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities in respect of such Class B Payment Period, whether or not Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities are declared and paid in respect of any future Class B Payment Period; however, any such Capital Payment or portion thereof not declared (or deemed to have been declared) by the Company in respect of any such Class B Payment Period shall be deferred.

     (2) Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities shall only be authorized to be declared, and declared (or deemed declared) Capital Payments are only authorized to be paid, in each case on any Class B Payment Date to the extent that (i) the Company has an amount of Operating Profits for such Class B Payment Period ending on the day immediately preceding such Class B Payment Date at least equal to the amount of Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities for such Class B Payment Period and (ii) the Bank has an amount of Distributable Profits for the preceding fiscal year for which audited unconsolidated financial statements are available at least equal to the aggregate amount of such Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities and capital payments or dividend or other distributions payable on Parity Capital Securities, and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, pro rata based on such

33

Distributable Profits; provided, however, that if the amount of such Distributable Profits is insufficient to pay all such amounts on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, the Parity Capital Securities and the Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, the Company is nevertheless authorized to declare Capital Payment on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities. In the case of insufficient Distributable Profits, however, the portion of such Capital Payments that cannot be paid will be deferred and will thereupon constitute Arrears of Payments.

     In determining the availability of sufficient Distributable Profits of the Bank related to any fiscal year to permit Capital Payments to be declared with respect to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, any Capital Payments already paid on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities during the succeeding fiscal year of the Bank and any capital payments, dividend or other distributions already paid during the succeeding fiscal year of the Bank on Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, on the basis of such Distributable Profits for such fiscal year, will be deducted from such Distributable Profits.

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries declares or pays any dividend or makes any other payment or distribution on any Tier 2 Junior Securities (other than payments on Tier 2 Junior Securities issued by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Bank, when such Tier 2 Junior Securities are held exclusively by the Bank or by any of its other wholly-owned subsidiaries), then the Company shall be deemed to have declared Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities at the Stated Rate pro rata (in the same proportion that the payment that was made on such Tier 2 Junior Securities had to the amount that was payable on such Tier 2 Junior Securities at the respective times of such payment):

(i)	payable on each of the next four Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Tier 2 Junior Securities is paid in respect of an annual period;
(ii)	payable on each of the next two Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Tier 2 Junior Securities is paid in respect of a semi-annual period; and
(iii)	payable on the next Class B Payment Date, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Tier 2 Junior Securities is paid in respect of a quarterly period.

(b) Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries declares or pays any dividends or makes any other payment or distribution on any Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities (other than a payment in kind of ordinary shares of

34

common stock or Junior Securities or payments on Preferred Tier 1 Securities issued by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Bank, when such Preferred Tier 1 Securities are held exclusively by the Bank or by any of its other wholly-owned subsidiaries), then the Company shall be deemed to have declared Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities at the Stated Rate pro rata (in the same proportion that the payment that was made on any such Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, as applicable, had to the amount that was payable on such Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, as applicable, at the respective times of such payment):

(i)	payable on each of the next four Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities is paid in respect of an annual period;
(ii)	payable on each of the next two Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities or Preferred Tier Capital 1 Securities is paid in respect of a semi-annual period; and
(iii)	payable on the next Class B Payment Date, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities is paid in respect of a quarterly period.

     If the Capital Payment on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities so deemed declared with respect to any Class B Payment Date is only partial, the portion of such Capital Payment that is not so deemed declared will be deferred and will thereupon constitute Arrears of Payments.

(c) If the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires any Parity Capital Securities, Tier 2 Junior Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities (other than Parity Capital Securities, Tier 2 Junior Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities issued by wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Bank, when such Parity Capital Securities, Tier 2 Junior Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities are held exclusively by the Bank or any of the Bank’s wholly-owned subsidiaries) for any consideration (except by conversion into or exchange for common stock of the Bank), or any moneys are paid to or made available for a sinking fund for, or redemption of, any such securities, other than in connection with

(i) transactions effected by or for the account of customers of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or in connection with the

35

	distribution, trading or market-making in respect of such securities,
(ii)	the satisfaction by the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries of its obligations under any employee benefit plans or similar arrangements with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or consultants, including hedging transactions effected to cover exposure to unvested grants under employee benefit plans,
(iii)	a reclassification of the capital stock of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or the exchange or conversion of one class or series of such capital stock for another class or series of such capital stock, or
(iv)	the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the capital stock of the Bank or any of its majority-owned Subsidiaries pursuant to the provisions of any security being converted into or exchanged for such capital stock,

          the Company shall be deemed to have declared Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities at the Stated Rate in full payable on each of the next four Class B Payment Dates contemporaneously with and/or immediately following the date on which such redemption, repurchase or other acquisition occurred.

     Any Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities so deemed to be declared pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10.04(b)(vi)(A)(2) shall (i) only be authorized to be paid on any Class B Payment Date to the extent the Company has an amount of Operating Profits for the related Class B Payment Period at least equal to the amount of Capital Payments so deemed declared and the amount of Capital Payments declared or deemed declared on the Tier 1 Percentage, if any, of the Class B Preferred Securities with respect to such Class B Payment Period, and (ii) to the extent not authorized to be paid pursuant to clause (i) shall not be considered due and payable for any purposes hereunder or under the Class B Preferred Guarantee, except with respect to such Capital Payments deemed declared after the Trust is dissolved and the Class B Preferred Securities have been distributed to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities pursuant to the Trust Agreement, which shall be considered due and payable for purposes of the Class B Preferred Guarantee.

     (3) If and to the extent the Company declares (or is deemed to have declared) a Capital Payment in respect of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities for any Class B Payment Period under circumstances where the Distributable Profits of the Bank for the most recent preceding fiscal year are insufficient to pay such Capital Payment in full as well as capital payments, dividends or other distributions or payments then due on Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, payment of all or a portion of such Capital Payment on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B

36

Preferred Securities will be deferred. The portions of such Capital Payments that cannot be paid and have been deferred in such case, together with the portions of Capital Payments that were not declared or deemed to have been declared in respect of such Upper Tier 2 Percentage for any Class B Payment Period and therefore deferred, will be cumulative and will collectively constitute arrears of payments with respect to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities (“Arrears of Payments”). Arrears of Payments will not themselves bear interest.

     The Company will pay outstanding Arrears of Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities on the earliest of:

(a) the first Class B Payment Date after such deferral to the extent that for the most recent preceding fiscal year for which audited financial statements are available, the Distributable Profits of the Bank are in an amount exceeding the aggregate of (x) Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities due on such Class B Payment Date, (y) capital payments, dividends or other distributions or payments on Parity Capital Securities, if any, due in respect of such fiscal year, and (z) Capital Payments, dividends or other distributions or payments on the Tier 1 Percentage, if any, of the Class B Preferred Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, due in respect of such fiscal year. In such case, such Arrears of Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and any deferred payments on Parity Capital Securities that have been deferred in accordance with their terms (“Deferred Payments”), will be paid pro rata on the basis of Distributable Profits for such preceding fiscal year, with any Arrears of Payments that cannot be repaid pursuant to the foregoing on such Class B Payment Date continuing to be deferred and to constitute Arrears of Payments;

(b) any Class B Redemption Date, in the full amount of outstanding Arrears of Payments; and

(c) the date on which an order is made for the winding up, liquidation or dissolution of the Company or the Bank (other than for the purposes of or pursuant to an amalgamation, reorganization or restructuring while solvent, where the continuing entity assumes substantially all of the assets and obligations of the Company or the Bank, as the case may be), in the full amount of outstanding Arrears of Payments.

     (4) If, as a result of the deferral of Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, the Company would receive payments of interest on the Obligations that would exceed Capital Payments declared (or deemed declared) and paid on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities on the corresponding Class B Payment Date (in each such case, “Excess Interest Amounts”), the Bank will not pay such Excess Interest Amounts to the Company in cash but will instead, without any instruction or other action being taken by the Company, credit such Excess Interest Amount to the account of the Company at the Bank as a

37

subordinated deposit in the Bank, subject to the Subordinated Deposit Agreement. The Subordinated Deposit Agreement will provide that the deposit account at the Bank will bear interest at a rate of 0.75% per annum. Any interest accumulating in such deposit account will be payable to the holder of the Common Securityholder under the circumstances described herein. The Subordinated Deposit Agreement will provide that, subject to the subordination provisions of the Subordinated Deposit Agreement, the subordinated deposit outstanding under the Subordinated Deposit Agreement will be terminated, and such deposit repaid to the Company, at such time and to the extent that the Company is required to pay Arrears of Payments. The subordinated deposit outstanding at any time pursuant to the Subordinated Deposit Agreement will be subordinated such that the obligations of the Bank under the Subordinated Deposit Agreement upon the bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation of the Bank will be (i) subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all indebtedness and other liabilities of the Bank to its creditors (including subordinated liabilities), except those which by their terms rank on parity with or are subordinated to the Bank’s obligations under the Subordinated Deposit Agreement, (ii) on parity with the most senior ranking preference shares of the Bank, if any, and any obligations or instruments of the Bank which by their terms rank on parity with such preference shares and (iii) senior to the Junior Securities.

     (5) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.04(b)(vi)(A), however, Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities shall not be payable on any Class B Payment Date (or a date set for redemption or liquidation) if on such date there is in effect an order of the BaFin (or any other relevant regulatory authority) prohibiting the Bank from making any distribution of profits.

     (6) The Company shall have no obligation to make up, at any time, any Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities (including Arrears of Payments) not paid in full by the Company as a result of insufficient Operating Profits of the Company or an order of the BaFin.

          (B) The provisions of this Section 10.04(b)(vi)(B) shall apply solely with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, if any, and shall have no force or effect with respect to any Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities.

     (1) The right of Class B Preferred Securityholders to receive Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities is non-cumulative. If the Board of Directors does not declare a Capital Payment on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities in respect of any Class B Payment Period (and no such Capital Payment is deemed to be declared), Class B Preferred Securityholders shall have no right to receive a Capital Payment on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities in respect of such Class B Payment Period, and the Company shall have no obligation to pay a Capital Payment on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities in respect of such Class B Payment Period, whether or not Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B

38

Preferred Securities are declared (or deemed declared) and paid in respect of any future Class B Payment Period.

     (2) Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities shall only be authorized to be declared, and declared (or deemed declared) Capital Payments are only authorized to be paid, in each case on any Class B Payment Date to the extent that (i) the Company has an amount of Operating Profits for such Class B Payment Period ending on the day immediately preceding such Class B Payment Date at least equal to the amount of Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities for such Class B Payment Period and (ii) the Bank has an amount of Distributable Profits for the preceding fiscal year of the Bank for which audited unconsolidated financial statements are available at least equal to the aggregate amount of such Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and capital payments or dividends or other distributions payable on Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any, pro rata, on the basis of such Distributable Profits; provided, that in determining the availability of sufficient Distributable Profits of the Bank related to any fiscal year to permit Capital Payments to be declared with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, any Capital Payments already paid on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and any capital payments, dividend or other distributions already paid during the succeeding fiscal year of the Bank on Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any, on the basis of such Distributable Profits for such fiscal year will be deducted from such Distributable Profits; provided, further that:

(a) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries declares or pays any dividends or makes any other payment or distribution on any Preferred Tier 1 Securities (other than a payment in kind of ordinary             shares of common stock or other Junior Securities or payments on Preferred Tier 1 Securities issued by wholly-owned Subsidiaries of the Bank, when such Preferred Tier 1 Securities are held exclusively by the Bank or by any of its other wholly-owned Subsidiaries), then the Company shall be deemed to have declared Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities at the Stated Rate pro rata (in the same proportion that the payment that was made on the Preferred Tier 1 Security had to the amount that was payable on such Preferred Tier 1 Security at the time of such payment):

(i)	payable on each of the next four Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Preferred Tier 1 Security is paid in respect of an annual period;
(ii)	payable on each of the next two Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Preferred Tier 1 Security is paid in respect of a semi-annual period; or

39

(iii) payable on the next Class B Payment Date, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Preferred Tier 1 Security is paid in respect of a quarterly period.

(b) Further, notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries declares or pays any dividends or makes any other payment or distribution on its Junior Securities (other than payments in kind of ordinary shares of common stock or other Junior Securities or payments on Junior Securities issued by wholly-owned Subsidiaries of the Bank, when such Junior Securities are held exclusively by the Bank or by any of its other wholly-owned Subsidiaries), then the Company shall be deemed to have declared Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities at the Stated Rate in full:

(i)	payable on each of the next four Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Junior Security is paid in respect of an annual period;
(ii)	payable on each of the next two Class B Payment Dates, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Junior Security is paid in respect of a semi-annual period; and
(iii)	payable on the next Class B Payment Date, if the dividend, distribution or other payment on the Junior Security is paid in respect of a quarterly period.

(c) If the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries redeems, repurchases or otherwise acquires any Junior Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Securities (other than Junior Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Securities issued by wholly-owned Subsidiaries of the Bank, when such Junior Securities or Preferred Tier 1 Securities are held exclusively by the Bank or by any of its other wholly-owned Subsidiaries), for any consideration (except by conversion into or exchange for ordinary shares of common stock of the Bank or other Junior Securities) or any moneys are paid to or made available for a sinking fund for, or for redemption of, any such securities, other than in connection with:

(i)	transactions effected by or for the account of customers of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or in connection with the distribution, trading or market-making in respect of such securities,
(ii)	the satisfaction by the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries of its obligations under any employee benefit plans or similar arrangements with or for the benefit of employees, officers, directors or

40

	consultants, including hedging transactions effected to cover exposure of yet unvested grants under employee benefit plans,
(iii)	a reclassification of the capital stock of the Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or the exchange or conversion of one class or series of such capital stock for another class or series of such capital stock, or
(iv)	the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the capital stock of the Bank or any of its majority-owned Subsidiaries pursuant to the provisions of any security being converted into or exchanged for such capital stock,

the Company shall be deemed to have declared Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities at the Stated Rate in full payable on each of the first four Class B Payment Dates falling contemporaneously with and/or immediately following the date on which such redemption, repurchase or other acquisition occurred.

     Any Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities so deemed to be declared pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 10.04(b)(vi)(B)(2) shall (i) only be authorized to be paid on any Class B Payment Date to the extent the Company has an amount of Operating Profits for the related Class B Payment Period at least equal to the amount of Capital Payments so deemed declared and (ii) to the extent not authorized to be paid pursuant to clause (i) shall not be considered due and payable for any purposes hereunder or under the Class B Preferred Guarantee, except with respect to such Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities deemed declared after the Trust is dissolved and the Class B Preferred Securities have been distributed to the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities pursuant to the Trust Agreement, which shall be considered due and payable for purposes of the Class B Preferred Guarantee.

     (3) Notwithstanding any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.04(b)(vi)(B), however, Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities shall not be payable on any Class B Payment Date (or a date set for redemption or liquidation) if on such date there is in effect an order of the BaFin (or any other relevant regulatory authority) prohibiting the Bank from making any distribution of profits (including to the holders of Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any such Preferred Tier 1 Securities are then outstanding).

     (4) The Company shall have no obligation to make up, at any time, any Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Securities not paid in full by the Company as a result of insufficient Operating Profits of the Company, insufficient Distributable Profits of the Bank or an order of the BaFin.

41

     (c) Additional Amounts. The payment of Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities, and any amount payable upon redemption thereof or in liquidation, shall be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future taxes, duties or governmental charges of any nature whatsoever imposed, levied or collected by or on behalf of the United States or Germany (or any jurisdiction from which payments are made) or, during any period in which any Substitute Obligations are outstanding, the jurisdiction of residence of any obligor on such Substitute Obligations (or any jurisdiction from which payments are made) (each a “Relevant Jurisdiction”) or by or on behalf of any political subdivision or authority therein or thereof having the power to tax (collectively, “Withholding Taxes”), unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. In such event, the Company shall pay as additional Capital Payments (or Arrears of Payments, as the case may be), such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) to the Class B Preferred Securityholders as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by the Class B Preferred Securityholders and the Trust Preferred Securityholders after such deduction or withholding for or on account of Withholding Taxes shall equal the amounts that otherwise would have been received had no such deduction or withholding been required, provided, however, that no such Additional Amounts shall be payable in respect of the Class B Preferred Securities

          (i) in respect of each portion of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities for Class B Payment Periods prior to the Class B Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Election, if any, occurred, with respect to such portions, if and to the extent that the Company is unable to pay because such payment would exceed the Distributable Profits of the Bank for the fiscal year in respect of which the relevant Capital Payments are payable (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amount of the Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and any payments on Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage, if any, of the Class B Preferred Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such Distributable Profits on or prior to the date on which such Additional Amounts will be payable), in which case such Additional Amounts shall be deferred and will thereupon constitute Arrears of Payments;

          (ii) in respect of each portion of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities for Class B Payment Periods from and including the Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Election if any, occurred, with respect to such portion, if and to the extent that the Company is unauthorized to pay because of insufficient Distributable Profits of the Bank for the preceding fiscal year (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amounts of Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and the dividends and other distributions or payments on the Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such Distributable Profits on or prior to the date on which such Additional Amounts will be payable);

          (iii) with respect to any Withholding Taxes that are payable by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of the Class B Preferred Securities (other than the Trust) having some connection with the Relevant Jurisdiction other than by reason only of the mere holding or beneficial ownership of Class B Preferred Securities;

42

          (iv) with respect to any Withholding Taxes which are deducted or withheld pursuant to (i) European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other European Union Directive or Regulation implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income, or (ii) any international treaty or understanding entered into for the purpose of facilitating cooperation in the reporting and collection of savings income and to which (x) the United States, and (y) the European Union or Germany are parties, or (iii) any provision of law implementing, or complying with, or introduced to conform with, such Directive, Regulation, treaty or understanding; or

          (v) to the extent such deduction or withholding can be avoided or reduced if the Holder or beneficial owner of Class B Preferred Securities makes a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to the relevant tax authority or complies with any reasonable certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement imposed by the relevant tax authority, provided, however, that this exclusion shall not apply if the certification, information, documentation or other reporting requirement would be materially more onerous (in form, procedure or substance of information required to be disclosed) to the Holder or beneficial owner of Class B Preferred Securities than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under U.S. tax law, regulation and administrative practice (such as IRS Forms W-8 and W-9).

     (d) Redemption Terms.

          (i) On June 30, 2018 (the “Initial Redemption Date”) and on any Class B Payment Date falling on or after the Initial Redemption Date, the Class B Preferred Securities shall be redeemable at the option of the Company, in whole but not in part, at a redemption price per Class B Preferred Security equal to the Class B Liquidation Preference Amount, plus any accrued and unpaid Capital Payments in respect of the then current Class B Payment Period to but excluding the date of redemption (the “Class B Redemption Date”), plus, in respect of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities, all outstanding Arrears of Payments, if any, on such portions, plus Additional Amounts, if any, on such portion (the sum of which is the “Redemption Price”), provided that, the Company may exercise its right to redeem the Class B Preferred Securities only if (A) the Company has given 30 calendar days’ prior notice (or such longer period as may be required by the relevant regulatory authorities) to the Class B Preferred Securityholders of its intention to redeem the Class B Preferred Securities on the Class B Redemption Date and (B) the Company has obtained any required regulatory approvals.

          (ii) The Company shall have the right, upon the occurrence of a Company Special Redemption Event, to redeem the Class B Preferred Securities at any time upon at least 30 calendar days’ prior notice, in whole but not in part, at the Redemption Price, subject to the Company having obtained any required regulatory approvals.

          (iii) In the event that payment of the Redemption Price in respect of any Class B Preferred Securities is improperly withheld or refused and not paid, Capital Payments on such Class B Preferred Securities shall continue to accrue at the Stated Rate from the designated Class B Redemption Date to the date of actual payment of the Redemption Price, in which case the actual payment date shall be

43

considered the Class B Redemption Date for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

          (iv) No redemption of the Class B Preferred Securities shall take place for any reason unless on the Class B Redemption Date (i) the Company has an amount of cash funds (by reason of payments on the Obligations or the Class B Preferred Guarantee) at least equal to the Redemption Price, plus Additional Amounts, if any, (ii) the Company has an amount of Operating Profits for the current Class B Payment Period at least equal to the Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities and Arrears of Payments, if applicable, accrued and unpaid as of the Class B Redemption Date, plus Additional Amounts, if any, (iii) the Bank has an amount of Distributable Profits for the preceding fiscal year of the Bank for which audited unconsolidated financial statements are available at least equal to the Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities accrued and unpaid as of the Class B Redemption Date, plus the aggregate amount of Capital Payments (including any Arrears of Payments) on the Class B Preferred Securities theretofore paid, plus any Additional Amounts plus (x) if the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities exceeds zero, capital payments payable on Parity Capital Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, or (y) if the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities is zero, capital payments or dividends payable on any Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any, in each case on the basis of Distributable Profits for such preceding year, and (iv) no order of the BaFin (or any other relevant regulatory authority) is in effect prohibiting the Bank from making any distribution of profits (including to the holders of Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any).

          No redemption of Class B Preferred Securities, whether on a Class B Payment Date, on or after the Initial Redemption Date or upon the occurrence of a Company Special Redemption Event, shall require the vote or consent of any of the Class B Preferred Securityholders.

     (e) Redemption Procedures.

          (i) An irrevocable notice of redemption of Class B Preferred Securities (a “Redemption Notice”) shall be given by the Board of Directors on behalf of the Company, in the manner prescribed in Section 19.09 hereof, to each Class B Preferred Securityholder at least 30 calendar days before the proposed Class B Redemption Date, or such other time period or in such manner as may be required by the relevant regulatory authorities. A Redemption Notice shall be deemed to be given on the day such notice is first delivered, telecopied or mailed by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to Class B Preferred Securityholders. Each Redemption Notice shall be addressed to the Class B Preferred Securityholders at the address of each such Holder appearing in the Register. No defect in the Redemption Notice or in the delivery thereof with respect to any Class B Preferred Securityholder shall affect the validity of the redemption proceedings with respect to any other Class B Preferred Securityholder.

          (ii) By 9:00 a.m. New York City time on the Class B Redemption Date, the Company shall (A) with respect to Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificates, irrevocably deposit with DTC funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price thereon together with irrevocable instructions to DTC to make such payment or (B) with respect to Definitive Class B Preferred Securities, deposit with

44

the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price thereon together with irrevocable instructions to the Paying Agent to make such payment by check mailed to the relevant Class B Preferred Securityholder (at its address in the Register on the Class B Redemption Date) upon surrender of its Class B Preferred Certificates; provided, however, that for so long as the Trust owns the Class B Preferred Securities (which shall be held of record in the name of the Property Trustee for the benefit of the Holders or beneficial owners of the Trust Preferred Securities and the Holder of the Trust Common Security), payment of the Redemption Price shall be made by wire in same day funds to the Property Trustee by 9:00 a.m., New York City time on the Class B Redemption Date. Upon satisfaction of the foregoing conditions, all rights of Class B Preferred Securityholders so called for redemption shall cease on the Class B Redemption Date, except the right of the Class B Preferred Securityholders to receive the applicable Redemption Price (without interest thereon from and after the Class B Redemption Date).

          If the Class B Redemption Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, payment of all amounts otherwise payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding Business Day, without adjustment, interest or further payment as a result of such delay in payment.

     (f) Liquidation Terms

          (i) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, winding up or termination of the Company, each Class B Preferred Securityholder shall, subject to the limitations described herein, be entitled to receive the Class B Liquidation Preference Amount of U.S.$25 per Class B Preferred Security, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid Capital Payments in respect of the then current Class B Payment Period to but excluding the date of liquidation, and Arrears of Payments and Additional Amounts, if any. Such entitlement shall arise following the liquidation distribution of the Obligations to the Class A Preferred Securityholders and before any distribution of assets is made to Common Securityholders.

          (ii) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, winding up or termination of the Trust not involving redemption of the Class B Preferred Securities or the liquidation of the Company, the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities shall be entitled to receive Class B Preferred Securities with a corresponding Class B Liquidation Preference Amount.

     (g) Additional Capital and Indebtedness. For so long as any of the Class B Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Company shall not issue, without the unanimous consent of all the Class B Preferred Securityholders (excluding any Class B Preferred Securities held by the Bank or any of its Affiliates), any additional equity securities ranking prior to or pari passu with the Class B Preferred Securities as to periodic distribution rights or rights on liquidation or dissolution, or incur any indebtedness for money borrowed.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will, from time to time on or prior to June 30, 2013, and without the consent of the holders of the Class B Preferred Securities, issue additional Class B Preferred Securities having the same terms and conditions as the Class B Preferred Securities in all respects except for the issue date,

45

the date from which Capital Payments accrue on the Class B Preferred Securities, the issue price, and any other deviations required for compliance with applicable law, so as to form a single series with the Class B Preferred Securities, upon notice from the Bank and in consideration for Obligations of a principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation preference amount of such additional Class B Preferred Securities and having the same terms and conditions as the Initial Obligation in all respects except for the issue date, the date from which interest accrues on such Obligations, the issue price and any other deviations required for compliance with applicable law.

     (h) Class B Preferred Guarantee. To the extent set forth in the Class B Preferred Guarantee, the Guarantor has agreed to pay the Class B Preferred Securityholders, as and when due, the Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments. As set forth in the Class B Preferred Guarantee, the obligations of the Guarantor under the Class B Preferred Guarantee shall be several and independent of the Company’s obligations hereunder. The Class B Preferred Securityholders, by acceptance of such Class B Preferred Securities, acknowledge and agree to the subordination provisions in, and other terms of, the Class B Preferred Guarantee.

     (i) Rights of Holders.

          (i) If for four consecutive Class B Payment Periods, Capital Payments on the Class B Preferred Securities and any Additional Amounts in respect of such Capital Payments have not been paid at the Stated Rate in full by the Company or by the Guarantor under the Class B Preferred Guarantee, the Class B Preferred Securityholders shall be entitled to appoint two Independent Directors to the Board of Directors. Such Independent Directors shall be elected by ordinary resolution, passed by a Majority of the Class B Preferred Securities entitled to vote thereon, as determined in accordance with Section 11.01, present in person or by proxy at a separate general meeting of such Class B Preferred Securityholders convened for that purpose (which shall be called at the request of any Class B Preferred Securityholder entitled to vote thereon). Any Independent Director so appointed shall vacate office if, in such Independent Director’s sole determination, Capital Payments have been paid regularly at the Stated Rate in full by the Company or the Guarantor under the Class B Preferred Guarantee or the Trust Preferred Guarantee for one calendar year. Any such Independent Director may be removed by, and shall not be removed except by, the vote of Holders of a Majority of the Class B Preferred Securities entitled to vote thereon, at a meeting of the Company’s Securityholders or of the Class B Preferred Securityholders entitled to vote thereon, called for that purpose.

          (ii) The Holders of a Majority of the Class B Preferred Securities have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting of any proceeding for any remedy available to the Manager Trustee in respect of enforcing the rights of the Class B Preferred Securities under this Agreement, or direct the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Manager Trustee under this Agreement.

          (iii) If the Manager Trustee fails to enforce its rights under the Agreement after a Class B Preferred Securityholder has made a written request, such Class B Preferred Securityholder may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, institute a legal proceeding directly against the Company to enforce the Manager

46

Trustee’s rights under this Agreement, without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Manager Trustee or any other person or entity.

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company has failed to pay the Redemption Price with respect to Class B Preferred Securities duly called for redemption, any Capital Payments declared (or deemed declared), including Additional Amounts, if applicable, that are due and owing, a Class B Preferred Securityholder may take any action authorized by this Agreement and may directly institute a proceeding in such Class B Preferred Securityholder’s own name against the Company for enforcement of this Agreement for such payment or against the Guarantor for enforcement of the Class B Preferred Guarantee in respect of such payment.

     (j) Ratings and Clearance. If the Class B Preferred Securities are distributed to Holders of Trust Preferred Securities in connection with the involuntary or voluntary dissolution, winding up or liquidation of the Trust, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Class B Preferred Securities (i) to be assigned the rating at which the Trust Preferred Securities are then rated and (ii) to be eligible for settlement and clearance through DTC and its participants, if the Trust Preferred Securities are then eligible for clearance through DTC and consequently to be issued in the form of one or more global certificates registered in the name of DTC as the depository or its nominee, and (iii) to be listed on the New York Stock Exchange or on such other national securities exchange as the Trust Preferred Securities are then listed or quoted.

     (k) Tier 1 Qualification Election. At any time on one or more occasions on or before June 30, 2013, the Bank in its sole discretion may give notice to the Company that, as of the date of such notice, the Bank is making an election (each, a “Tier 1 Qualification Election”) to treat a percentage of each and every Class B Preferred Security as Tier 1 Regulatory Capital and that as a consequence of such Tier 1 Qualification Election, beginning with the first day of the Class B Payment Period in which such Tier 1 Qualification Election occurs, the determination of Capital Payments and related matters with respect to such percentage of each and every Class B Preferred Security is changed to the terms described in this Agreements as applicable to the Tier 1 Percentage of Class B Preferred Securities; provided, that the Bank may elect this qualification only in increments of 10% of the liquidation preference amount of the Class B Preferred Securities.

     Any and each notice of a Tier 1 Qualification Election must specify:

          (i) that the Bank is making the Tier 1 Qualification Election;

          (ii) the Specified Increment to which that Tier 1 Qualification Election pertains;

          (iii) that the Specified Increment will be treated as Tier 1 Percentage for all purposes under this Agreement from the first day of the Class B Payment Period in which that Tier 1 Qualification Election occurred, specifying the date of such first day; and

47

          (iv) the total Tier 1 Percentage of each Class B Preferred Security following that Tier 1 Qualification Election,

     the Company shall give notice to the Trust immediately upon receipt from the Bank of the Tier 1 Qualification Election notice.

The Bank shall be under no obligation to make any Tier 1 Qualification Election. However, once the Bank has elected to qualify any percentage of the liquidation preference amount of the Class B Preferred Securities as consolidated Tier 1 regulatory capital of the Bank, that election cannot be reversed. The respective percentages of each Class B Security for which the election has been made and has not been made will not be separable at any time, and each Class B Preferred Security will at all times consist of a single security with a liquidation preference amount of U.S.$25.

     The effectiveness of each Tier 1 Qualification Election is subject to the conditions that, on the date of such Tier 1 Qualification Election,

          (i) the BaFin has not applied for the initiation of insolvency proceedings against the Bank,

          (ii) the Bank has not given notice to the BaFin that it is insolvent (zahlungsunfähig) or overindebted (überschuldet) within the meaning of §46b of the German Banking Act (Gesetz über das Kreditwesen),

          (iii) the BaFin (or any other relevant regulatory authority) has not prohibited the Bank from making the Tier 1 Qualification Election, and

          (iv) all Arrears of Payments, if any, have been paid or will be paid by or on the date of such Tier 1 Qualification Election.

     If any of these conditions are not met with respect to any Tier 1 Qualification Election, such Tier 1 Qualification Election shall not occur and the Bank shall be deemed to have rescinded the related notice. In such case, the Bank may make a Tier 1 Qualification Election at a later date in compliance with the provisions summarized in this Section 10.04(k).

          Section 16.02. Registration. The Board of Directors shall provide for the registration of Class B Preferred Certificates, the Class A Certificate and the Common Security and of transfers of Class B Preferred Certificates, the Class A Certificate and the Common Security in a record thereof (the “Register”) and shall appoint a securities registrar (the “Registrar”) and transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”) to act on its behalf; provided, however, that without any action on the part of the Board of Directors being necessary, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, is hereby appointed as the initial Registrar and Transfer Agent.

53

Vice-President or the Secretary of the Company.

Every Class B Preferred Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Board of Directors duly executed by the Class B Preferred Securityholder or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing. Any registration of transfer shall be effected upon the Transfer Agent being satisfied with the documents of title and identity of the person making the request, upon the receipt by the Transfer Agent of any applicable certificate relating to transfer restrictions as described below, and subject to such reasonable regulations as the Company may from time to time establish.

By acceptance of a Class B Preferred Certificate, each transferee shall be bound by this Agreement. The transferor of a Class B Preferred Certificate, in whole, shall cease to be a Class B Preferred Securityholder (subject to certain exceptions) at the time that the transferee of such Class B Preferred Certificate is admitted to the Company as a Class B Preferred Securityholder in accordance with this Section 16.06.

     (b) Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Class B Preferred Certificate at the office or agency of the Company or the Registrar maintained for that purpose the Company shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Registrar in a form duly executed on behalf of the Company in the manner provided for in Section

54

16.05(a) and the Registrar shall register in the Register and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Class B Preferred Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Class B Liquidation Preference Amount dated the date of execution by such Registrar.

          The Company and the Registrar shall not be required to issue, register the transfer of or exchange any Class B Preferred Security from and after the opening of business 15 days before the Class B Redemption Date.

          No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Class B Preferred Certificates, but the Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Class B Preferred Certificates.

          The Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written communications received pursuant to its duties under this Agreement. The Company, at its own expense, shall have the right to inspect and make copies of all such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of reasonable written notice to the Registrar.

     (c) Any acquiror or Holder of Class B Preferred Securities (other than the Property Trustee or DTC) or holder of a beneficial interest therein shall be deemed to have represented and warranted by its acquisition and holding of the Class B Preferred Securities that on each day that it holds Class B Preferred Securities either (A) it is not itself, and is not acquiring any Class B Preferred Securities on behalf of or with “plan assets” of, an employee benefit plan or other plan subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA, a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code, a governmental plan which is subject to any federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to such provisions of ERISA or the Code (“Similar Law”) or an entity whose underlying assets include “plan assets” by reason of any such plan’s investment in the entity or (B) the purchase, holding and redemption of any Class B Preferred Securities is exempt by reason of Section 408 (b) (17) of ERISA, Section 4975(d)(20) of the Code or U.S. Department of Labor prohibited transaction class exemption (“PTCE”) 96-23 (for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), PTCE 95-60 (for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTCE 91-38 (for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds), PTCE 90-1 (for certain transactions involving insurance company separate accounts), or PTCE 84-14 (for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers) or similar exemptions from Similar Law.

          Section 16.07. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Class B Preferred Certificates. If (a) any mutilated Class B Preferred Certificate shall be surrendered to the Registrar, or if the Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Class B Preferred Certificate, and (b) there shall be delivered to the Registrar and the Company such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Class B Preferred Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Company shall sign and the Company and the Registrar shall make available for delivery (all in the manner provided for in Section 16.05), in exchange for or in lieu of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Class B Preferred Certificate, a new Class B Preferred Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination. In

55

connection with the issuance of any new Class B Preferred Certificate under this Section 16.07, the Company or the Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith. Any duplicate Class B Preferred Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of a limited liability company interest in the Company corresponding to that evidenced by the lost, stolen or destroyed Class B Preferred Certificate, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Class B Preferred Certificate shall be found at any time.

          Section 16.08. Book-entry Provisions.

     (a) General. The provisions of this Section 16.08 shall apply only in the event that the Class B Preferred Securities are distributed to the Holders of Trust Preferred Securities in book-entry form in connection with the involuntary or voluntary liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust. Upon the occurrence of such event, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Class B Preferred Securities to be issued in the form of one or more book-entry Class B Preferred Certificates (the “Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificates”) in fully registered form in the name of DTC or its nominee and beneficial interests of the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities in the Class B Preferred Securities shall be shown on and transfers thereof shall be effected through records maintained by DTC. In the event that the provisions of this Section 16.08 take effect, still outstanding Definitive Class B Preferred Securities shall be of no further force and effect. In connection with the involuntary or voluntary liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, DTC or its nominee shall automatically be admitted as the Class B Preferred Securityholder. Receipt of the Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificates shall be deemed to constitute a request by DTC or its nominee that the Register of the Company reflect its admission as a Class B Preferred Securityholder. Unless and until new definitive, fully registered Class B Preferred Certificates have been issued to the Class B Preferred Securityholders pursuant to Section 16.08(c):

          (i) The provisions of this Section 16.08(a) shall be in full force and effect;

          (ii) The Company, the Board of Directors, the Manager Trustee, and the Registrar and Transfer Agent shall be entitled to deal with DTC or its nominee for all purposes of this Agreement (including for purposes of the payment of Capital Payments, the Redemption Price and liquidation distributions and the receipt of approvals, votes or consents hereunder) as the Class B Preferred Securityholder and the sole Holder of the Class B Preferred Certificates and shall have no obligation to any other Class B Preferred Securityholders;

          (iii) None of the Company, the Trust, the Board of Directors, the Manager Trustee, or any agents of any of the foregoing shall have any liability or responsibility for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in a Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificate for such beneficial ownership interests or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests; and

56

          (iv) Except as provided in Section 16.08(c) below, the Class B Preferred Securityholders shall not be entitled to receive physical delivery of the Class B Preferred Securities in definitive form and shall not be considered Holders thereof for any purpose under this Agreement, and no Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificate representing Class B Preferred Securities shall be exchangeable, except for another Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificate of like denomination and tenor to be registered in the name of DTC or its nominee. Accordingly, each Class B Preferred Securityholder must rely on the procedures of DTC, or if such person is not a participant in DTC on the procedures of such a participant through which such person owns its interest, to exercise any rights of a Class B Preferred Securityholder under this Agreement.

     (b) Notices to DTC or its Nominee. Whenever a notice or other communication to the Class B Preferred Securityholders is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Class B Preferred Securities shall have been issued to the Class B Preferred Securityholder pursuant to Section 16.08(c), the Company, the Board of Directors, and the Manager Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to the Class B Preferred Securityholders to DTC or its nominee, and shall have no obligations to any other Class B Preferred Securityholders.

     (c) Definitive Class B Preferred Certificates. In the event that (i) the Class B Preferred Securities are distributed to the Holders of Trust Preferred Securities in book-entry form in connection with the involuntary or voluntary liquidation, dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust and (ii) DTC or its nominee notifies the Company that it is unwilling or unable to continue its services as a securities depositary with respect to the Class B Preferred Securities and no successor depositary shall have been appointed within 90 days of such notification, then Definitive Class B Preferred Securities shall be prepared by the Company and exchanged for the Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificates. Upon surrender of the Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificates in whole by the Holder thereof, accompanied by registration instructions, the Board of Directors or authorized Officer shall cause Class B Preferred Certificates to be delivered to those Class B Preferred Securityholders who were owners of beneficial interests in the Book-Entry Class B Preferred Certificate in accordance with the instructions of DTC. None of the Board of Directors, authorized Officers or the Company shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and each of them may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Any Person receiving a Definitive Class B Preferred Certificate in accordance with this Section 16.08 shall be admitted to the Company as a Class B Preferred Securityholder upon receipt of such Definitive Class B Preferred Certificate and shall be registered in the Register of the Company as a Class B Preferred Securityholder. DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, shall cease to be a Class B Preferred Securityholder under this Section 16.08(c) at the time of such surrender and delivery. The Definitive Class B Preferred Certificates shall be printed, lithographed or engraved or may be produced in any other manner as may be required by a securities exchange, if any, on which Class B Preferred Securities may be listed and as is reasonably acceptable to any Officer of the Company, as evidenced by his or her execution thereof.

ARTICLE 17
MERGERS, CONSOLIDATIONS AND SALES; REINVESTMENT OF OBLIGATIONS

          Section 17.01. The Company. Subject to Section 19.01, the Company may not consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to, any corporation or other body, except as described below. The Company may, with the consent of at least 66 2/3% of the Class B Preferred Securityholders, consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or be replaced by a limited partnership, limited liability company or trust organized as such under the laws of any state of the United States of America, provided that:

     (a) such successor entity either (i) expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Company under the Class B Preferred Securities or (ii) substitutes for the Class B Preferred Securities other securities having substantially the same terms as the Class B Preferred Securities (the “Successor Company Securities”) so long as the Successor Company Securities are not junior to any equity securities of the successor entity, with respect to participation in the profits, distributions and assets of the successor entity, except that they may rank junior to the Class A Preferred Security or any successor Class A Preferred Security to the same extent that the Class B Preferred Securities rank junior to the Class A Preferred Security,

     (b) the Bank expressly acknowledges such successor entity as the Holder of the Obligations and holds, directly or indirectly, all of the voting securities (within the meaning of Rule 3a-5 under the 1940 Act) of such successor entity,

     (c) such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or replacement does not cause the Trust Preferred Securities (or, in the event that the Trust is liquidated, the Class B Preferred Securities (including any Successor Company Securities)) to be downgraded by any nationally recognized rating organization,

     (d) such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or replacement does not adversely affect the powers, preferences and other special rights or the tax treatment of the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities or Class B Preferred Securities (including any Successor Company Securities) in any material respect,

     (e) such successor entity has a purpose substantially identical to that of the Company,

     (f) prior to such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or replacement, the Company has received an opinion of a nationally recognized law firm experienced in such matters to the effect that

          (i) such successor entity will be treated as a partnership, and will not be classified as an association or a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation, for United States federal income tax purposes,

          (ii) such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or replacement would not cause the Trust to be classified as other than a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes,

58

          (iii) following such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or replacement, such successor entity will not be required to register under the 1940 Act and

          (iv) such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or replacement will not adversely affect the limited liability of the Class B Preferred Securityholders,

     (g) such consolidation, merger, amalgamation or replacement does not otherwise result in a Company Special Redemption Event, and

     (h) the Guarantor guarantees the obligations of such successor entity under the Successor Company Securities at least to the extent provided by the Class B Preferred Guarantee.

          Section 17.02. Substitute Obligations. Upon the redemption of an Obligation (at its maturity, if any, or otherwise) under circumstances that do not involve the redemption of the Class B Preferred Securities, the Bank will deliver and the Company will accept, in replacement thereof, Substitute Obligations, provided, in each case, that (i) the Bank has received the written opinion of a nationally recognized law firm in the United States that reinvestment in such Substitute Obligation will not adversely affect the “qualified dividend income” eligibility for purposes of Section 1(h)(11) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (or any successor legislation), of Capital Payments on the Trust Preferred Securities or cause the holders thereof to recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes and (ii) such substitution or replacement does not result in a Company Special Redemption Event or a Trust Special Redemption Event, and provided, further in each case that the Bank has obtained any required regulatory approvals.

ARTICLE 18
DISSOLUTION, LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION

          Section 18.01. No Dissolution. The Company shall not be dissolved by the admission of Securityholders. The death, insanity, retirement, resignation, expulsion, or dissolution of a Securityholder, or the occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of a Securityholder in the Company, shall not in and of itself cause the Company to be dissolved and its affairs wound up. Upon the occurrence of any such event, the business of the Company shall be continued without dissolution. The Bankruptcy of a Securityholder shall not cause a Securityholder to cease to be a member of the Company, and upon the occurrence of any such event the existence of the Company shall continue without dissolution. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Securityholder waives any right it might have to agree in writing to dissolve the Company upon the Bankruptcy of a Securityholder, or the occurrence of an event that causes a Securityholder to cease to be a member of the Company.

          Section 18.02. Events Causing Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved and its affairs shall be wound up upon the occurrence of any of the following events:

     (a) a decree or order by a court having jurisdiction in the premises shall have been entered adjudging the Company a bankrupt or insolvent, or approving as properly filed a petition seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition of the Company under any applicable U.S. federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, and such decree or order shall have continued undischarged and unstayed

59

for a period of 90 days; or a decree or order of a court having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator or similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or of all or substantially all of its property, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered, and such decree or order shall have continued undischarged and unstayed for a period of 90 days or the Company shall institute proceedings to be adjudicated a voluntary bankrupt, or shall consent to the filing of a bankruptcy proceeding against it, or shall file a petition or answer or consent seeking reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition under any applicable federal or state bankruptcy or similar law, or shall consent to the filing of any such petition, or shall consent to the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, trustee, assignee, sequestrator or similar official in bankruptcy or insolvency of the Company or of all or substantially all of its property, or shall make an assignment for the benefit of creditors, or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due and its willingness to be adjudged a bankrupt, or action shall be taken by the Company in furtherance of any of the aforesaid purposes;

     (b) the entry of a decree of judicial dissolution of the Company under Section 18-802 of the LLC Act;

     (c) the entry of an order by a court initiating insolvency, bankruptcy or liquidation proceedings in respect of the Bank under German law, or the adoption of a shareholder’s resolution providing for the liquidation of the Bank under German law, except for any liquidation resulting from an amalgamation, consolidation, merger or replacement;

     (d) the redemption, repurchase or exchange of all outstanding Preferred Securities;

     (e) the written consent of all Securityholders; or

     (f) the termination of the legal existence of the last remaining Securityholder of the Company or the occurrence of any other event which terminates the continued membership of the last remaining Securityholder of the Company in the Company unless the Company is continued without dissolution in a manner permitted by this Agreement or the LLC Act.

          Upon the occurrence of any event that causes the last remaining Securityholder of the Company to cease to be a Securityholder of the Company (other than upon an assignment by the Securityholder of all of its limited liability company interest in the Company and the admission of the transferee pursuant to this Agreement), to the fullest extent permitted by law, the personal representative of such Securityholder is hereby authorized to, and shall, within 90 days after the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of such Securityholder in the Company, agree in writing (i) to continue the Company and (ii) to the admission of the personal representative or its nominee or designee, as the case may be, as a substitute member of the Company, effective as of the occurrence of the event that terminated the continued membership of the last remaining Securityholder of the Company.

60

          Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be dissolved until all claims under the Guarantees have been paid in full pursuant to their respective terms, to the fullest extent permitted by law.

          Section 18.03. Notice of Dissolution. Upon the dissolution of the Company, the Board of Directors shall promptly notify the Securityholders of such dissolution.

          Section 18.04. Liquidation. Upon dissolution of the Company, the Board of Directors or, in the event that the dissolution is caused by an event described in Section 18.02(b) or (c) of this Agreement and there are no Directors, a Person or Persons who may be approved by the Class B Preferred Securityholders holding not less than 66 2/3% of the Class B Preferred Securities, as liquidating trustees, shall immediately commence to wind up the Company’s affairs provided, however, that a reasonable time shall be allowed for the orderly liquidation of the assets of the Company and the satisfaction of liabilities to creditors so as to minimize the losses attendant upon a liquidation. The proceeds of liquidation shall be distributed, as realized, in the manner provided in Section 18-804 of the LLC Act.

          Section 18.05. Termination. The Company shall terminate when all of the assets of the Company have been distributed in the manner provided for in this Article 18, and the LLC Certificate shall have been canceled in the manner required by the LLC Act.

ARTICLE 19
MISCELLANEOUS

          Section 19.01. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by a written instrument executed by an Officer designated by the Board of Directors without the consent of any Preferred Securityholder; provided, however, that (a) no amendment shall be made, and any such purported amendment shall be void and ineffective, to the extent either that such amendment (w) would result in the Company being deemed to be required to register under the 1940 Act, (x) would result in causing the Company to be treated as anything other than a partnership for purposes of United States federal income taxation, (y) has not received any prior requisite approval of Class B Preferred Securityholders as may be expressly provided in this Agreement or the By-laws or (z) would result in a Company Special Redemption Event, (b) so long as any Class B Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of at least 66 2/3% of the Class B Preferred Securities voting as a single class (entitled to vote thereon as determined in accordance with Section 11.01) (x) amend, alter, repeal or change any provision of this Agreement (including the terms of the Class B Preferred Securities) if such amendment, alteration, repeal or change would materially adversely affect the rights, preferences, powers or privileges of the Class B Preferred Securities, (y) agree to modify or amend any provision of, or waive any default in the payment of any amount under, the Obligations in any manner that would materially affect the interests of the Class B Preferred Securityholders or (z) effect any merger, consolidation or business combination involving the Company or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, provided, that in any event any such merger, consolidation, business combination or sale of assets must also comply with Section 17.01 and (c) so long as any Class B Preferred Securities are outstanding, the Company shall not, without the affirmative vote of each Class B Preferred Securityholder affected thereby, amend, alter, repeal or change the right of such Class B Preferred Securityholder to receive the Capital Payments or the applicable Redemption Price, in each case that have become due and payable.

61

          Section 19.02. Amendment of LLC Certificate. In the event this Agreement shall be amended pursuant to Section 19.01, the Board of Directors shall cause the LLC Certificate to be amended to reflect such change if it deems such amendment of the LLC Certificate to be necessary or appropriate.

THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS OF PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS. In particular, this Agreement shall be construed to the maximum extent possible to comply with all of the terms and conditions of the LLC Act. If, nevertheless, it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provisions or wording of this Agreement shall be invalid or unenforceable under the LLC Act or other applicable law, such invalidity or unenforceability shall not invalidate the entire Agreement. In that case, this Agreement shall be construed so as to limit any term or provision so as to make it enforceable or valid within the requirements of applicable law, and, in the event such term or provisions cannot be so limited, this Agreement shall be construed to omit such invalid or unenforceable provisions. If it shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that any provision relating to the distributions and allocations of the Company or to any fee payable by the Company is invalid or unenforceable, this Agreement shall be construed or interpreted so as (a) to make it enforceable or valid and (b) to make the distributions and allocations as closely equivalent to those set forth in this Agreement as is permissible under applicable law.

          Section 19.05. Filings. Following the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Board of Directors shall cause to be promptly prepared any documents required to be filed and recorded under the LLC Act, and the Board of Directors shall cause to be promptly filed and recorded each such document in accordance with the LLC Act and, to the extent required by local law, to be filed and recorded or notice thereof to be published in the appropriate place in each jurisdiction in which the Company may hereafter establish a place of business.

          Section 19.06. Power of Attorney. Each Preferred Securityholder does hereby constitute and appoint each Person specifically authorized by the Board of Directors to act as its true and lawful representative and attorney-in-fact, in its name, place and stead to make, execute, sign, deliver and file (a) any amendment of the LLC Certificate required because of an amendment to this Agreement or in order to effectuate any change in the ownership of the Securities of the Company, (b) any amendments to this Agreement made in accordance with the terms hereof and (c) all such other instruments, documents and certificates which may from time to time be required by the laws of the United States of America, the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction, or any political subdivision or agency thereof, to effectuate, implement and continue the valid and subsisting existence of the Company or to dissolve the Company or for any other purpose consistent with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby.

62

          The Power of Attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and shall (a) survive and not be affected by the subsequent death, incapacity, disability, dissolution, termination or Bankruptcy of the Preferred Securityholder granting the same or the transfer of all or any portion of such Preferred Securityholder’s Preferred Securities and (b) extend to such Preferred Securityholder’s successors, assigns and legal representatives.

          Section 19.07. Exculpation.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Director and Officer shall be entitled to indemnification from the Bank for any loss, damage, claim or expense (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred by such Director or Officer by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Director or Officer in good faith on behalf of the Company and in a manner reasonably believed to be within the scope of authority conferred on such Director or Officer by this Agreement, except with respect to any act or omission determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Director or Officer.

Any other proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting.

Amended & Restated LLC Agreement

          Section 1.04. Adjournments. Any meeting of Securityholders, annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time, to reconvene at the same or some other place, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the Company may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than thirty days, or if after the adjournment a new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each Securityholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting.

          Section 1.05. Quorum. At each meeting of Securityholders, except where otherwise provided by law or the Agreement or these By-laws, the Holders of at least 50% of the Securities entitled to vote on a matter at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum of the Holders of Securities entitled to vote on a matter, the Holders of a majority of the Securities present or represented may adjourn such meeting from time to time in the manner provided by Section 1.04 of these By-laws until a quorum shall be so present or represented. Securities other than the Common Security belonging on the record date for the meeting to the Bank or an Affiliate of the Bank shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes.

          Section 1.06. Organization. Meetings of Securityholders shall be presided over by the Chairman of the Board, if any, or in the absence of the Chairman of the Board by the President, or in the absence of the President by a Vice President, or in the absence of the foregoing persons, by a chairman designated by the Board of Directors, or in the absence of such designation, by a chairman chosen at the meeting. The Secretary, or in the absence of the Secretary, an Assistant Secretary, shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in the absence of the Secretary and any Assistant Secretary, the chairman of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

          Section 1.07. Voting: Proxies. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, each Securityholder entitled to vote at any meeting of Securityholders shall have voting power proportionate to the outstanding amount, based on initial issue price, of the Securities held by such Securityholder that have voting power upon the matter in question. Each Securityholder entitled to vote at a meeting of Securityholders or to express consent or dissent to action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such Securityholder by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power, regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the Securities themselves or an interest in the Company generally. A Securityholder may revoke any proxy which is not irrevocable by attending the meeting and voting in person or by filing an instrument in writing revoking the proxy or another duly executed proxy bearing a later date with the Secretary of the Company. Voting at meetings of Securityholders need not be by written ballot unless the Holders of a majority of the outstanding Securities entitled to vote thereon present in person or represented by proxy at such meeting shall so determine. Directors shall be designated, removed and replaced as provided in the Agreement and Article II hereof. Other than in the case of any matter expressly set forth in the Agreement for which a higher vote is required, the affirmative vote of the Holders of a majority of the Securities present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter shall be the act of the Securityholders.

          Section 1.08. Fixing Date for Determination of Securityholders of Record. In order that the Company may determine the Securityholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Securityholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more than sixty nor less than ten days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining Securityholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Securityholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of Securityholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Securityholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

          In order that the Company may determine the Securityholders entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which date shall not be more than ten days after the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for determining Securityholders entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting, when no prior action by the Board of Directors is required by law, shall be the first date on which a signed written consent setting forth the action taken or proposed to be taken is delivered to the Company by delivery to (a) its registered office in the State of Delaware, (b) its principal place of business, or (c) an Officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of Securityholders are recorded. Delivery made to the Company’s registered office shall be by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested. If no record date has been fixed by the Board of Directors and prior action by the Board of Directors is required by law, the record date for determining Securityholders entitled to consent to action in writing without a meeting shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution taking such prior action.

          In order that the Company may determine the Securityholders entitled to receive payment of any distribution or allotment of any rights or the Securityholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any exchange of Securities, or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining Securityholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.

          Section 1.09. List of Securityholders Entitled to Vote. The Secretary shall prepare and make, at least ten days before every meeting of Securityholders, a complete list of the Securityholders entitled to vote at the meeting, arranged in alphabetical order, and showing the address of each Securityholder and the amount of Securities registered in the name of each Securityholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any Securityholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten days prior to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not so specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall also be produced and

3

kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any Securityholder who is present.

          Section 1.10. Consent of Securityholders in Lieu of Meeting. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement or by law, any action required by law to be taken at any annual or special meeting of Securityholders of the Company, or any action which may be taken at any annual or special meeting of such Securityholders, may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and without a vote, if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, shall be signed by the Holders of outstanding Securities having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which all Securities entitled to vote thereon were present and voted and shall be delivered to the Company by delivery to (a) its registered office in the state of Delaware by hand or by certified mail or registered mail, return receipt requested, (b) its principal place of business, or (c) an Officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of Securityholders are recorded. Every written consent shall bear the date of signature of each Securityholder who signs the consent and no written consent shall be effective to take the action referred to therein unless, within sixty days of the earliest dated consent delivered in the manner required by these By-laws to the Company, written consents signed by Holders representing a sufficient amount of Securities to take action are delivered to the Company by delivery to (a) its registered office in the State of Delaware by hand or by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, (b) its principal place of business, or (c) an Officer or agent of the Company having custody of the book in which proceedings of meetings of Securityholders are recorded. Prompt notice of the taking of the action without a meeting by less than unanimous written consent shall be given to those Securityholders who have not consented in writing.

Whenever notice is required to be given by law or under any provision of the Agreement or these By-laws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the person entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the Securityholders, Directors or a committee of Directors need be specified in any written waiver of notice unless so required by the Agreement or these By-laws.

          Section 6.03. Indemnification of Directors, Officers and Employees. The Bank, as the Holder of the Common Security, shall indemnify to the full extent permitted

Expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred by any such person in defending any such action, suit or proceeding shall be paid or reimbursed by the Bank promptly upon receipt by it of an undertaking of such person to repay such expenses if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the Bank. The rights provided to any person by these By-laws shall be enforceable against the Bank by such person who shall be presumed to have relied upon it in serving or continuing to serve as a Director, Officer or employee as provided above. No amendment of these By-laws shall impair the rights of any person arising at any time with respect to events occurring prior to such amendment. For purposes of these By-laws, the term “Company” shall include any predecessor of the Company and any constituent company (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed by the Company in a consolidation or merger; the term “other enterprise” shall include any limited liability company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or employee benefit plan.

The Bank’s obligation, if any, to indemnify any Person who was or is serving at its request as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other enterprise shall be reduced by any amount such Person may collect as indemnification from such other enterprise. Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.03 shall not adversely affect any right of protection hereunder of any Person in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal or modification.

          Section 6.04. Interested Directors; Quorum. No contract or transaction between the Company and one or more of its Directors or Officers, or between the Company and any other limited liability company, corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its Directors or Officers are Directors or officers, or have a financial interest (except for the Bank), shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the Director or Officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board of Directors or committee thereof which authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because his or her or their votes are counted for such purpose, if: (1) the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board of Directors or the committee, and the Board of Directors or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested Directors, even though the disinterested Directors would be less than a quorum; or (2) the material facts as to his or her relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Securityholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the Securityholders; or (3) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Company as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified, by the Board of Directors, a committee thereof or the Securityholders. Common or interested Directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board of Directors or of a committee that authorizes the contract or transaction.

The right, title and interest of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall automatically vest in any Successor Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, and such vesting and cessation of title shall be effective whether or not conveyancing documents have been executed and delivered pursuant to the appointment of such Successor Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee.

     (c) If an Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall be entitled to enforce this Trust Preferred Guarantee for the benefit of the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities.

8

     (d) The Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, before the occurrence of any Event of Default and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default that may have occurred, shall undertake to perform only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Trust Preferred Guarantee, and no implied covenants shall be read into this Trust Preferred Guarantee against the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee. In case an Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee has occurred and is continuing, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Preferred Guarantee, and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise thereof, as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his or her own affairs.

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

     (i) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Trust Preferred Guarantee; provided that in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall be under a duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements of this Trust Preferred Guarantee (but need not confirm or investigate the accuracy of any mathematical calculations or other facts stated therein);

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

     (iii) the Trust Preferred Guarantee 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 of the Trust Preferred Securities relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, or the exercise of any trust or power conferred upon the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee under this Trust Preferred Guarantee; and

     (iv) no provision of this Trust Preferred Guarantee shall require the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability, or indemnity, satisfactory to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, against such expense, risk or liability, is not assured to it under the terms of this Trust Preferred Guarantee.

          Section 2.11. Certain Rights of Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee.

9

     (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10:

     (i) the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, and shall be fully 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 (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties;

     (ii) any direction or act of the Guarantor contemplated by this Trust Preferred Guarantee shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate;

     (iii) whenever, in the administration of this Trust Preferred Guarantee, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established before taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee (unless other evidence is herein specifically prescribed) may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, request and conclusively rely upon an Officers’ Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly delivered by the Guarantor;

     (iv) the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording, filing or registration of any instrument (or any rerecording, refiling or registration thereof) except as required in the administration of this Trust Preferred Guarantee;

     (v) the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee may, at the expense of the Guarantor, consult with counsel of its selection, and the advice or opinion of such counsel with respect to legal matters 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 accordance with such advice or opinion. Such counsel may be counsel to the Guarantor or the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee or any of their Affiliates and may include any of their employees. The Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Trust Preferred Guarantee from any court of competent jurisdiction;

     (vi) the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Preferred Guarantee at the request or direction of any Holder, unless such Holder shall have provided to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee such security and indemnity, satisfactory to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, against the costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses and the expenses of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee’s agents, nominees or custodians) and liabilities that might be incurred by it in complying with such request or direction, including such reasonable advances as may be requested by the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee; provided, that nothing contained in this Section 2.11(a)(vi) shall be taken to relieve the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, of its obligation to exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Preferred Guarantee;

10

     (vii) the Trust Preferred Guarantee 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 Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit but shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

     (viii) the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, nominees, custodians or attorneys, and the Trust Preferred Guarantee 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;

     (ix) any action taken by the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee or its agents hereunder shall bind the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, and the signature of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee or its agents alone shall be sufficient and effective to perform any such action. No third party shall be required to inquire as to the authority of the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee to so act or as to its compliance with any of the terms and provisions of this Trust Preferred Guarantee, both of which shall be conclusively evidenced by the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee or its agent taking such action;

     (x) whenever in the administration of this Trust Preferred Guarantee the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee (i) may request written instructions from the Holders of a Majority of the Trust Preferred Securities, (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such written instructions are received and (iii) shall be protected in conclusively relying on or acting in accordance with such written instructions; and

     (xi) the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Trust Preferred Guarantee. No provision of this Trust Preferred Guarantee shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall be unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation. No permissive power or authority available to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall be construed to be a duty.

          Section 2.12. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Guarantee. The recitals contained in this Trust Preferred Guarantee shall be taken as the statements of the Guarantor, and the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee does not assume any responsibility for

11

          Section 4.01. Guarantee.

     (a) The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally agrees with the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee and the Holders from time to time of the Trust Preferred Securities, subject to the limitations set forth in this Trust Preferred Guarantee, to guarantee payment, on a subordinated basis as provided in Section 5.02, in full to such Holders (whether such rights under this Trust Preferred Guarantee are asserted by the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee or directly by any such Holder) (without duplication of amounts theretofore paid to the Holders by the Trust), regardless of any defense, right of set-off or counterclaim that the Trust may have or assert, of:

     (i) Capital Payments due and payable on the Trust Preferred Securities on each Payment Date for the then current Payment Period, in the amounts and in the manner set forth in the Trust Agreement, including any Arrears of Payments that are due and payable pursuant to the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities, and including any Additional Amounts payable with respect to such Capital Payments and, if applicable, such Arrears of Payments;

     (ii) on any Redemption Date, the Redemption Price for each Trust Preferred Security called for redemption by the Trust, in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement;

(collectively, the “Guarantee Payments”). All Guarantee Payments shall include interest accrued on such Guarantee Payments, at a rate per annum equal to the Stated Rate of the Trust Preferred Securities, since the date of the claim asserted under this Trust Preferred Guarantee relating to such Guarantee Payments.

     (b) The Guarantor’s obligation to make any of the payments listed in (i) and (ii) of subsection (a) above may be satisfied by direct payment of the required amounts by the Guarantor to the Holders or by causing the Trust to pay such amounts to the Holders.

          Section 4.02. Delivery of Guarantor Certificate. As of each (x) Payment Date with respect to which the Trust has not paid the full amount of Capital Payments at the Stated Rate payable as contemplated by clause (i) of Section 4.01(a) or (y) Redemption Date with respect to which the Trust has not paid the Redemption Price in full as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 4.01(a), the Guarantor shall deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee within five Business Days after such Payment Date or Redemption Date, as applicable, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A (the “Guarantor Certificate”).

          Section 4.03. Waiver of Notice and Demand. The Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Trust Preferred Guarantee and of any liability to which it applies or may apply, presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of dishonor, notice of redemption and all other notices and demands.

          Section 4.04. Obligations Not Affected. The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of the Guarantor under this Trust Preferred Guarantee shall in no way be affected or impaired by reason of the happening from time to time of any of the following:

     (a) the release or waiver, by operation of law or otherwise, of the performance or observance by the Trust of any express or implied agreement, covenant, term or condition relating to the Trust Preferred Securities to be performed or observed by the Trust;

     (b) the extension of time for the payment by the Trust of all or any portion of the Capital Payments, Arrears of Payments, Redemption Price, liquidation preference amount or other liquidation distribution or any other sums payable under the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities or the extension of time for the performance of any other obligation under, arising out of, or in connection with, the Trust Preferred Securities;

14

     (c) any failure, omission, delay or lack of diligence on the part of the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities to enforce, assert or exercise any right, privilege, power or remedy conferred on such Holders pursuant to the terms of the Trust Preferred Securities or any action on the part of the Trust granting indulgence or extension of any kind;

     (d) the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, sale of any collateral, receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization, arrangement, composition or readjustment of debt of, or other similar proceedings affecting, the Trust or any of the assets of the Trust;

     (e) any invalidity of, or defect or deficiency in, the Trust Preferred Securities;

     (f) the settlement or compromise of any obligation guaranteed hereby or hereby incurred; or

     (g) any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 4.04 that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances.

     There shall be no obligation of the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities to give notice to, or obtain consent of, the Guarantor with respect to the happening of any of the foregoing.

          Section 4.05. Action Against Guarantor. The Guarantor waives any right or remedy to require that any action be brought first against the Trust or any other person or entity before proceeding directly against the Guarantor.

          Section 4.06. Independent Obligations. The Guarantor acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Trust with respect to the Trust Preferred Securities, and that the Guarantor shall be liable as principal and as debtor hereunder to make Guarantee Payments pursuant to the terms of this Trust Preferred Guarantee notwithstanding the occurrence of any event referred to in subsections (a) through (g), inclusive, of Section 4.04. It is further understood that all rights of a Holder of a Trust Preferred Security against the Guarantor under this Trust Preferred Guarantee, and all corresponding obligations of the Guarantor to such Holder, are separate and independent of the rights and corresponding obligations between the Guarantor and the other Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities. This Trust Preferred Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

          Section 4.07. Taxes. All payments in respect of the Guarantee Payments (including interest accrued thereon, if any) by the Guarantor shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Withholding Tax, unless the withholding or deduction of such Withholding Tax is required by law. In that event, the Guarantor shall pay, as additional Guarantee Payments, such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by a Holder after such withholding or deduction for or on account of Withholding Tax will equal the amount which would have been received in respect of the Guarantee Payments (including interest accrued thereon, if any) had no such deduction or withholding been required (“Trust Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts”), except that no such Trust Preferred

15

Guarantee Additional Amounts shall be payable to a Holder with respect to any Guarantee Payments,

     (i) in respect of each portion of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities for Payment Periods ending prior to the Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Elections, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, if and to the extent that the Company is unable to pay corresponding amounts in respect of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities because such payment would exceed the Distributable Profits of the Guarantor for the fiscal year in respect of which the relevant Capital Payments are payable (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amounts of Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and dividends or other distributions or payments on Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage, if any, of the Trust Preferred Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such Distributable Profits on or prior to the date on which such Trust Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts will be payable), in which case such Trust Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts shall be deferred and will thereupon constitute Arrears of Payments under this Trust Preferred Guarantee;

     (ii) in respect of each portion of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities for Payment Periods from and including the Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Elections, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, if and to the extent that the Company is unable to pay corresponding amounts in respect of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities because of insufficient Distributable Profits of the Guarantor for the preceding fiscal year (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amounts of Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and dividends or other distributions or payments on the Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such Distributable Profits on or prior to the date on which such Trust Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts will be payable);

     (iii) with respect to any Withholding Taxes that are payable by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of Trust Preferred Securities to which such Trust Preferred Guarantee Payments relate having some connection with any Relevant Jurisdiction other than by reason only of the mere holding or beneficial ownership of Trust Preferred Securities;

     (iv) with respect to any Withholding Taxes which are deducted or withheld pursuant to (i) European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other European Union Directive or Regulation implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income, or (ii) any international treaty or understanding entered into for the purpose of facilitating cooperation in the reporting and collection of savings income and to which (x) the United States, and (y) the European Union or Germany are parties, or (iii) any provision of law implementing, or complying with, or introduced to conform with, such Directive, Regulation, treaty or understanding; or

     (v) where such deduction or withholding can be avoided or reduced if the Holder or beneficial owner of Trust Preferred Securities to which such Trust Preferred Guarantee Payments relate makes a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to the relevant tax authority or complies with any reasonable certification, documentation, information or other

16

reporting requirement imposed by the relevant tax authority, provided, however, that this exclusion shall not apply if the certification, information documentation or other reporting requirement would be materially more onerous to the Holder or beneficial owner of Trust Preferred Securities (in form, in procedure or substance of information required to be disclosed) than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under U.S. tax law, regulation and administrative practice (such as IRS Forms W-8 and W-9).

     No later than two Business Days prior to the date on which a Guarantee Payment is due, the Guarantor shall furnish to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee as to whether any Guarantee Payment shall be made to Holders with or without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Withholding Tax. If any such withholding or deduction shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld or deducted on such payments to such Holders and shall certify whether Trust Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to such withholding or deduction and the Trust Preferred Guarantee Additional Amount so payable to each Holder. In such case, the Guarantor shall pay to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee, the Trust Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts required to be paid by this Section. The Guarantor covenants to indemnify the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by it in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section.

          Section 4.08. Rights Not Separately Transferable. This Trust Preferred Guarantee is a guarantee for the benefit of each Holder from time to time of Trust Preferred Securities. Upon transfer of any Trust Preferred Securities to a third party, the prior Holder thereof shall no longer have any rights hereunder with respect to such transferred Trust Preferred Securities. The rights under this Trust Preferred Guarantee with respect to a Trust Preferred Security are not separately transferable from such Trust Preferred Security.

          Section 4.09. No Assurance of Class B Preferred Capital Payment Authorization. Nothing in this Trust Preferred Guarantee shall constitute a guarantee or undertaking of any kind that (i) the Company or the Trust will at any time have sufficient assets to declare a Capital Payment on the Trust Preferred Securities or the Class B Preferred Securities, as the case may be, or (ii) any other condition for declaring such a Capital Payment will be met, or (iii) the Company will be authorized to declare a Capital Payment on the Class B Preferred Securities, or (iv) the Company will declare a Capital Payment on the Class B Preferred Securities if all conditions for the declaration of such a Capital Payment are met.

17

undertakes not to give any guarantee or similar undertaking with respect to, or enter into any other agreement relating to the support of, or payment of any amounts in respect of, any Group Capital Securities of any of its affiliates which guarantee or similar undertaking or other support agreement would rank senior in any regard to this Trust Preferred Guarantee unless this Trust Preferred Guarantee is amended to give the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities with respect to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage thereof such rights and entitlements as are contained in or attached to such other guarantee, similar undertaking or agreement so that the Guarantor’s obligations under this Trust Preferred Guarantee relating to the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities rank at least on parity with, and contain substantially equivalent rights of priority as to payment, as such guarantee, similar undertaking or other support agreement.

“Group Capital Securities,” as used herein, includes any interests in the capital of any person that rank (A) senior to the preference shares, Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities and common shares of such person and (B) junior to all other obligations of such person that (i) rank senior to the preference shares and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, of such person and (ii) do not by their terms rank pari passu with such interests.

     (b) From and including the date of the first Tier 1 Qualification Election, if any, and for so long as any Trust Preferred Securities remain outstanding, the Guarantor undertakes not to issue any preference shares ranking senior on liquidation to its obligations under this Trust Preferred Guarantee or give any guarantee or similar undertaking with respect to, or enter into any other agreement relating to the support or payment of amounts in respect of, any other preference shares (or instruments ranking on parity with or junior to preference shares) issued by any other affiliated entity that would rank senior in right of payment to the Guarantor’s obligations under this Trust Preferred Guarantee in respect of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities, unless this Trust Preferred Guarantee is amended to give the Holders of Trust Preferred Securities with respect to the Tier 1 Percentage thereof such rights and entitlements as are contained in or attached to such other guarantee, similar undertaking or agreement so that the Guarantor’s obligations under this Trust Preferred Guarantee relating to the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities rank at least on parity with, and contain substantially equivalent rights of priority as to payment as, such guarantee, similar undertaking or other support agreement.

     (c) The Guarantor shall pay all amounts required to be paid pursuant to this Trust Preferred Guarantee in respect of any Capital Payments on the Trust Preferred Securities payable in respect of the most recent Payment Period prior to any dividend or other payment (except dividends in the form of Shares) upon the Shares.

          Section 5.02. Ranking.

In respect of each portion of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities for Payment Periods ending prior to the Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Elections, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, in the case of a liquidation of the Guarantor, this Trust Preferred Guarantee will rank

18

     (i) subordinate and junior to all senior and subordinated debt obligations of the Guarantor (including profit participation rights (Genussscheine));

     (ii) senior to all preference shares, Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities and the common shares of the Guarantor; and

     (iii) unless otherwise expressly provided in the terms thereof, pari passu with any instrument or contractual obligation of the Guarantor ranking junior to any of the instruments included in the first clause above and senior to any of the instruments or contractual obligations of the Guarantor included in clause (ii) above.

     (b) In respect of each portion of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Trust Preferred Securities for Payment Periods from and including the Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Elections, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, in the case of a liquidation of the Guarantor, this Trust Preferred Guarantee will rank

     (ii) on parity with the most senior ranking preference shares of the Guarantor, if any, and with its obligations under any guarantee or support agreement or undertaking relating to any preference shares or other instrument of any subsidiary of the Guarantor qualifying as consolidated Tier 1 capital of the Guarantor that does not expressly rank junior to the obligations of the Guarantor under this Trust Preferred Guarantee; and

     (iii) senior to the (x) Shares, (y) each class of preference shares of the Guarantor ranking junior to Preferred Tier 1 Securities of the Guarantor, if any, and any other instrument of the Guarantor ranking pari passu with such preference shares or junior thereto and (z) preference shares or any other instrument of any subsidiary of the Guarantor subject to any guarantee or support agreement of the Guarantor which guarantee or support agreement ranks junior to the obligations of the Guarantor under this Trust Preferred Guarantee.

ARTICLE VI

          Section 6.01. Termination. This Trust Preferred Guarantee shall terminate upon, and be of no further force and effect from the earlier of (i) full payment of the Redemption Price of all Trust Preferred Securities or repurchase and cancellation of all Trust Preferred Securities, or (ii) upon full payment of the aggregate liquidation preference amount of the Trust Preferred Securities, plus any accumulated and unpaid Capital Payments thereon, plus Arrears of Payments, if applicable, plus Additional Amounts, if any, as payable on the Trust Preferred Securities upon liquidation of the Trust pursuant to the Trust Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Trust Preferred Guarantee will continue to be effective or will be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any Holder of Trust Preferred Securities must return payment of any sums paid under the Trust Preferred Securities or under this Trust Preferred Guarantee pursuant to (i) or (ii) above.

          Section 7.01. Exculpation.

     (a) No Indemnified Person shall be liable, responsible or accountable in damages or otherwise to the Guarantor or any Holder or beneficial owner of Trust Preferred Securities for any loss, liability, expense, damage or claim incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or omitted by such Indemnified Person in good faith in accordance with this Trust Preferred Guarantee and in a manner that such Indemnified Person reasonably believed to be within the scope of the authority conferred on such Indemnified Person by this Trust Preferred Guarantee or by law, except that an Indemnified Person shall be liable for any such loss, liability, expense, damage or claim incurred by reason of such Indemnified Person’s negligence or willful misconduct with respect to such acts or omissions.

     (b) An Indemnified Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of the Guarantor and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Guarantor by any Person as to matters the Indemnified Person reasonably believes are within such other Person’s professional or expert competence, including information, opinions, reports or statements as to the value and amount of the assets, liabilities, profits, losses, or any other facts pertinent to the existence and amount of assets from which Capital Payments to Holders of Trust Preferred Securities might properly be paid.

          Section 7.02. Fees and expenses; Indemnification. The Guarantor agrees to pay to the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee from time to time such compensation as shall be agreed to in writing between the Guarantor and the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee for all services rendered by it hereunder and to reimburse the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trust Preferred Guarantee Trustee in accordance with any provision of this Trust Preferred Guarantee (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, willful misconduct or bad faith. The Guarantor agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person for, and to hold each Indemnified Person harmless against, any and all loss, liability, damage, claim or expense (including taxes other than taxes based on the income of any such Indemnified Person) incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself against, or investigating, any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder.

     Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Person of notice of the commencement of any action, such Indemnified Person will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Guarantor, notify the Guarantor in writing of the commencement thereof; provided that, failure to give such prompt notice shall not impair the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder except to the extent that such failure to provide notice materially prejudices the Guarantor. The Guarantor

     (b) The Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall have received written notice, or a Responsible Officer of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee charged with the administration of this Class B Preferred Guarantee shall have obtained actual knowledge, of such Event of Default.

          Section 2.08. Rights of Holders.

     (e) No provision of this Class B Preferred Guarantee shall be construed to relieve the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that:

     (i) in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee, the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates

     (ii) the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts upon which such judgment was made;

     (iv) no provision of this Class B Preferred Guarantee shall require the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that the repayment of such funds or liability, or indemnity, satisfactory to the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee, against such expense, risk or liability, is not assured to it under the terms of this Class B Preferred Guarantee.

          Section 2.11. Certain Rights of Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee.

     (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.10:

     (i) the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee may conclusively rely, and shall be fully 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 (whether in its original or facsimile form) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or presented by the proper party or parties;

10

Officers’ Certificate which, upon receipt of such request, shall be promptly delivered by the Guarantor;

     (vii) the Class B Preferred Guarantee 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 Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee, in its discretion, may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit but shall incur no liability or additional liability of any kind by reason of such inquiry or investigation;

     (viii) the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, nominees, custodians or attorneys, and the Class B Preferred Guarantee 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;

     (ix) any action taken by the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee or its agents hereunder shall bind the Holders of the Class B Preferred Securities and for so long as the

11

Initial Holder is the Holder of the Class B Preferred Securities, also the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, and the signature of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee or its agents alone shall be sufficient and effective to perform any such action. No third party shall be required to inquire as to the authority of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee to so act or as to its compliance with any of the terms and provisions of this Class B Preferred Guarantee, both of which shall be conclusively evidenced by the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee or its agent taking such action;

     (x) whenever in the administration of this Class B Preferred Guarantee the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder, the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee (i) may request written instructions from the Holders of a Majority of the Class B Preferred Securities, (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such written instructions are received and (iii) shall be protected in conclusively relying on or acting in accordance with such written instructions; and

     (xi) the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken, suffered, or omitted by it in good faith and reasonably believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Class B Preferred Guarantee. No provision of this Class B Preferred Guarantee shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee to perform any act or acts or exercise any right, power, duty or obligation conferred or imposed on it in any jurisdiction in which it shall be illegal, or in which the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall be unqualified or incompetent in accordance with applicable law, to perform any such act or acts or to exercise any such right, power, duty or obligation. No permissive power or authority available to the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee shall be construed to be a duty.

          Section 2.12. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Class B Preferred Guarantee. The recitals contained in this Class B Preferred Guarantee shall be taken as the statements of the Guarantor, and the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee does not assume any responsibility for their correctness.

14

     (b) The Guarantor’s obligation to make any of the payments listed in (i) and (ii) of subsection (a) above may be satisfied by direct payment of the required amounts by the Guarantor to the Holders or by causing the Company to pay such amounts to the Holders.

As of each (x) Class B Payment Date with respect to which the Company has not paid the full amount of Capital Payments at the Stated Rate payable as contemplated by clause (i) of Section 4.01(a) or (y) Class B Redemption Date with respect to which the Company has not paid the Redemption Price in full as contemplated by clause (ii) of Section 4.01(a), the Guarantor shall deliver an Officers’ Certificate to the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee within five Business Days after such Class B Payment Date or Class B Redemption Date, as applicable, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit A (the “Guarantor Certificate”).

          Section 4.03. Waiver of Notice and Demand. The Guarantor hereby waives notice of acceptance of this Class B Preferred Guarantee and of any liability to which it applies or may apply, presentment, demand for payment, protest, notice of nonpayment, notice of dishonor, notice of redemption and all other notices and demands.

          Section 4.04. Obligations Not Affected. The obligations, covenants, agreements and duties of the Guarantor under this Class B Preferred Guarantee shall in no way be affected or impaired by reason of the happening from time to time of any of the following:

     (a) the release or waiver, by operation of law or otherwise, of the performance or observance by the Company of any express or implied agreement, covenant, term or condition relating to the Class B Preferred Securities to be performed or observed by the Company;

     (b) the extension of time for the payment by the Company of all or any portion of the Capital Payments, Arrears of Payments, Redemption Price, liquidation preference amount or other liquidation distribution or any other sums payable under the terms of the Class B Preferred Securities or the extension of time for the performance of any other obligation under, arising out of, or in connection with, the Class B Preferred Securities;

     (c) any failure, omission, delay or lack of diligence on the part of the Holders of the Class B Preferred Securities (or so long as the Initial Holder is the Holder of the Class B Preferred Securities, on the part of the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities) to enforce, assert or exercise any right, privilege, power or remedy conferred on such Holders pursuant to the terms of the Class B Preferred Securities (or Trust Preferred Securities, as applicable) or any action on the part of the Company (or the Trust, if applicable) granting indulgence or extension of any kind;

     There shall be no obligation of the Holders of the Class B Preferred Securities or the Trust Preferred Securities to give notice to, or obtain consent of, the Guarantor with respect to the happening of any of the foregoing.

          Section 4.06. Independent Obligations. The Guarantor acknowledges that its obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of the Company with respect to the Class B Preferred Securities, and that the Guarantor shall be liable as principal and as debtor hereunder to make Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments pursuant to the terms of this Class B Preferred Guarantee notwithstanding the occurrence of any event referred to in subsections (a) through (g), inclusive, of Section 4.04. It is further understood that all rights of a Holder of a Class B Preferred Security (and if and for so long as the Initial Holder is the Holder of the Class B Preferred Securities, all rights of a Holder of a Trust Preferred Security) against the Guarantor under this Class B Preferred Guarantee, and all corresponding obligations of the Guarantor to such Holder, are separate and independent of the rights and corresponding obligations between the Guarantor and the respective other Holders of the Class B Preferred Securities or Trust Preferred Securities, as the case may be. This Class B Preferred Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

          Section 4.07. Taxes. All payments in respect of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments (including interest accrued thereon, if any) by the Guarantor shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Withholding Tax, unless the withholding or deduction of such Withholding Tax is required by law. In that event, the Guarantor shall pay, as additional Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments, such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by a Holder of Class B Preferred Securities or Trust Preferred Securities after such withholding or deduction for or on account of Withholding Tax will equal the amount which would have been received in respect of the Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments (including interest accrued thereon, if any) had no such deduction or withholding been required (“Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts”), except that no such Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts shall be payable to a Holder with respect to any Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments,

16

     (i) in respect of each portion of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities for Class B Payment Periods ending prior to the Class B Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Elections, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, if and to the extent that the Company is unable to pay corresponding amounts in respect of the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities because such payment would exceed the Distributable Profits of the Guarantor for the fiscal year in respect of which the relevant Capital Payments are payable (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amounts of Capital Payments on the Upper Tier 2 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and dividends or other distributions or payments on Parity Capital Securities, the Tier 1 Percentage, if any, of the Trust Preferred Securities and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such Distributable Profits, on or prior to the date on which such Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts will be payable), in which case such Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts shall be deferred and will thereupon constitute Arrears of Payments under this Class B Preferred Guarantee;

     (ii) in respect of each portion of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities for Class B Payment Periods from and including the Class B Payment Period during which the respective Tier 1 Qualification Elections, if any, occurred with respect to such portions, if and to the extent that the Company is unable to pay corresponding amounts in respect of the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities because of insufficient Distributable Profits of the Guarantor for the preceding fiscal year (after subtracting from such Distributable Profits the amounts of Capital Payments on the Tier 1 Percentage of the Class B Preferred Securities and dividends or other distributions or payments on the Preferred Tier 1 Securities, if any, already paid on the basis of such Distributable Profits on or prior to the date on which such Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts will be payable);

     (iii) with respect to any Withholding Taxes that are payable by reason of a Holder or beneficial owner of Class B Preferred Securities to which such Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments relate having some connection with any Relevant Jurisdiction other than by reason only of the mere holding or beneficial ownership of such Class B Preferred Securities;

     (iv) with respect to any Withholding Taxes which are deducted or withheld pursuant to (i) European Council Directive 2003/48/EC or any other European Union Directive or Regulation implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council meeting of 26-27 November 2000 on the taxation of savings income, or (ii) any international treaty or understanding entered into for the purpose of facilitating cooperation in the reporting and collection of savings income and to which (x) the United States, and (y) the European Union or Germany are parties, or (iii) any provision of law implementing, or complying with, or introduced to conform with, such Directive, Regulation, treaty or understanding; or

     (v) where such deduction or withholding can be avoided or reduced if the Holder or beneficial owner of Class B Preferred Securities to which such Class B Preferred Guarantee Payments relate makes a declaration of non-residence or other similar claim for exemption to the relevant tax authority or complies with any reasonable certification, documentation, information or other reporting requirement imposed by the relevant tax authority, provided, however, that this exclusion shall not apply if the certification, information documentation or other reporting requirement would be materially more onerous to the Holder or beneficial owner of Class B

17

Preferred Securities (in form, in procedure or substance of information required to be disclosed) than comparable information or other reporting requirements imposed under U.S. tax law, regulation and administrative practice (such as IRS Forms W-8 and W-9).

     No later than two Business Days prior to the date on which a Class B Preferred Guarantee Payment is due, the Guarantor shall furnish to the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee an Officers’ Certificate instructing the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee as to whether any Class B Preferred Guarantee Payment shall be made to Holders with or without withholding or deduction for or on account of any Withholding Tax. If any such withholding or deduction shall be required, then such Officers’ Certificate shall specify by country the amount, if any, required to be withheld or deducted on such payments to such Holders and shall certify whether Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts will be payable with respect to such withholding or deduction and the Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amount so payable to each Holder. In such case, the Guarantor shall pay to the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee, the Class B Preferred Guarantee Additional Amounts required to be paid by this Section. The Guarantor covenants to indemnify the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense reasonably incurred without negligence or bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with actions taken or omitted by it in reliance on any Officers’ Certificate furnished pursuant to this Section.

          Section 4.08. Rights Not Separately Transferable. This Class B Preferred Guarantee is a guarantee for the benefit of each Holder from time to time of Class B Preferred Securities. Upon transfer of any Class B Preferred Securities to a third party, the prior Holder thereof shall no longer have any rights hereunder with respect to such transferred Class B Preferred Securities. The rights under this Class B Preferred Guarantee with respect to a Class B Preferred Security are not separately transferable from such Class B Preferred Security. The Initial Holder hereby accepts the rights under this Class B Preferred Guarantee held by the Class B Preferred Guarantee Trustee for the Initial Holder’s benefit as initial purchaser of the Class B Preferred Securities (who in turn holds the Class B Preferred Securities and related rights under this Class B Preferred Guarantee for the benefit of the Holders of the Trust Preferred Securities) with the understanding that such rights shall be transferred by operation of law to any subsequent Holder acquiring a Class B Preferred Security from the Initial Holder or from a subsequent Holder of Class B Preferred Securities.

          Section 4.09. No Assurance of Capital Payment Authorization. Nothing in this Class B Preferred Guarantee shall constitute a guarantee or undertaking of any kind that (i) the Company will at any time have sufficient assets, or be authorized pursuant to the LLC Agreement, to declare a Capital Payment on the Class B Preferred Securities, (ii) any other condition for declaring such a Capital Payment will be met or (iii) the Company will declare a Capital Payment on the Class B Preferred Securities if all conditions for the declaration of such a Capital Payment are met.

“Group Capital Securities”, as used herein, includes any interests in the capital of any person that rank (A) senior to the preference shares, Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities and common shares of such person and (B) junior to all other obligations of such person that (i) rank senior to the preference shares and Preferred Tier 1 Capital Securities, if any, of such person and (ii) do not by their terms rank pari passu with such interests.

In such case, the parties shall undertake to agree on such valid and enforceable provision or on provisions filing the gap in this Agreement which are as close as possible to the original commercial intention of the parties.

13.4 The Bank shall maintain a book-entry registration system with respect to the Account (the “Register”). A transfer of the right to payment of principal and interest with respect to the Account will be effective only if transferred through a book-entry reflected in the Register. The Register will record the registered owners of the Account.
