DESCRIPTION OF THE 7.20% CUMULATIVE TRUST PREFERRED SECURITIES

The following description of the 7.20% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities issued by BFC Capital Trust II (“the Trust”) is a summary and does not purport to be complete. It is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Amended and Restated Trust Agreement of the Trust, which is incorporated by reference as an exhibit to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of which this Exhibit 4.2 is a part. We encourage you to read the Form of Amended and Restated Trust Agreement and the applicable provisions of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act for additional information.

General

The Trust issued $26,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7.20% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities (the “Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities”) that the Company fully and unconditionally guarantees, based on its combined obligations under a guarantee agreement, the trust agreement and an expense agreement. The proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities were invested in $26,804,000 of 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures issued by the Company. The Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities represent an undivided interest in the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures.

Dividends

Distributions on the Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities are payable at the annual rate of 7.20% of the stated liquidation amount of $25, payable quarterly in arrears on the 15th day of January, April, July and October of each year, commencing on April 15, 2004, to the holders of such securities on the relevant record dates. The amount of each distribution includes amounts accrued through the date the distribution payment is due. Distributions are payable to the holders of such preferred securities as they appear on the register of the Trust on the relevant record date, which is the date 15 days prior to the relevant distribution date.

The amount of distributions payable for any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any date on which distributions are payable is not a business day, payment of the distribution otherwise payable on such date will be made on the next business day without any interest or other payment in respect to any such delay, with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payment was originally payable.

The funds of the Trust available for distribution will be limited to payments by the Company under the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures. If interest payments are not made on the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures, the property trustee will not have funds available to pay distributions on the Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities. The payment of distributions, if and to the extent the Trust has funds legally available for the payment of such distributions and cash sufficient to make such payments, is guaranteed by the Company.

So long as no event of default with respect to the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures has occurred and is continuing, the indenture permits the Company to defer the payment of interest on the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures at any time or from time to time for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters with respect to each such period. No extension period may extend beyond the stated maturity of the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures. As a consequence of any such election, the Trust will defer quarterly distributions, and distributions will not be payable, on the preferred securities during any such extension period.  Deferred distributions will accumulate additional amounts thereon at the rate per annum of 7.20% thereof, compounded quarterly from the relevant distribution date, to the extent permitted under applicable law.    

Voting Rights

The 7.20% Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities have no voting rights.

Maturity

The Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities mature and must be redeemed on March 31, 2034.

Optional Redemption

The Company may redeem the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures at 100% of their principal amount plus unpaid interest accrued to the date of redemption in whole or in part at any time after March 31, 2009.  In turn, the Trust may redeem the Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities at the liquidation amount of $25.00 per preferred security, plus any accrued and unpaid distributions to the date of redemption in whole or in part at any time after March 31, 2009. If less than all of the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures are redeemed, then the property trustee will allocate the proceeds from the redemption to the Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities on a pro rata basis, by such method as the property trustee deems fair and appropriate.

Distribution of Junior Subordinated Debentures

The Company has the right at any time to dissolve the Trust, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as required by applicable law, and cause the 7.20% Junior Subordinated Debentures to be distributed to the holders of Cumulative Trust Preferred Securities in liquidation of the Trust. Prior to dissolving the Trust, the Company must receive approval of the Federal Reserve if the approval is required under applicable capital guidelines or policies of the Federal Reserve.
