Distributions shall accumulate from the relevant Securities Issue Date, and, except during any Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to the Debentures, shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last calendar day of March, June, September and December of each year, commencing on December 31, 2009. If any date on which a Distribution is otherwise payable on the Trust Securities is not a Business Day, then the payment of such Distribution shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day (and without any reduction of interest or any other payment in respect of any such acceleration), in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date (each date on which distributions are payable in accordance with this Section 4.01(a), a “Distribution Date”).

(b) The Trust Securities represent undivided beneficial interests in the Trust Property. Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be payable at a rate of 8.50% per annum of the Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities. The amount of Distributions payable for any full period shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

in a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. During any Extended Interest Payment Period with respect to the Debentures, Distributions on the Preferred Securities shall be deferred for a period equal to the Extended Interest Payment Period.

(c) Distributions on the Trust Securities shall be made by the Property Trustee solely from the Payment Account and shall be payable on each Distribution Date only to the extent that the Trust has funds on hand and immediately available by 12:30 p.m. on each Distribution Date in the Payment Account for the payment of such Distributions.

(d) Distributions on the Trust Securities with respect to a Distribution Date shall be payable to the Holders thereof as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust Securities on the relevant record date, which shall be the 15th day of March, June, September or December for Distributions payable on the last calendar day of the respective month; provided, however, that for any Trust Securities held in global form, Distributions shall be payable to the Holder thereof as of one Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution Date.

Section 4.02 Redemption.

(a) On each Debenture Redemption Date and on the maturity of the Debentures, the Trust shall redeem (subject to Section 4.02(f)) a Like Amount of Trust Securities at the Redemption Price.

(b) Notice of redemption shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date to each Holder of Trust Securities to be redeemed, at such Holder’s address appearing in the Securities Register. The Property Trustee shall have no responsibility for the accuracy of any CUSIP number contained in such notice. All notices of redemption shall state:

(i) the Redemption Date;

(ii) the Redemption Price;

(iii) the CUSIP number;

(iv) if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to be redeemed, the identification and the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the particular Trust Securities to be redeemed;

(v) that, on the Redemption Date, the Redemption Price shall become due and payable upon each such Trust Security to be redeemed and that Distributions thereon shall cease to accumulate on and after said date, except as provided in Section 4.02(d); and

(vi) the place or places at which Trust Securities are to be surrendered for the payment of the Redemption Price.

(c) The Trust Securities to be redeemed on each Redemption Date shall be redeemed at the Redemption Price with the proceeds from the contemporaneous redemption of Debentures. Redemptions of the Trust Securities shall be made and the Redemption Price shall be payable on

each Redemption Date only to the extent that the Trust has immediately available funds then on hand and available in the Payment Account for the payment of such Redemption Price.

(d) If the Property Trustee gives a notice of redemption in respect of any Trust Securities, then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Redemption Date, subject to Section 4.02(c), the Property Trustee, subject to Section 4.02(c), shall deposit with the Paying Agent funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and shall give the Paying Agent irrevocable instructions and authority to pay the Redemption Price to the record holders thereof upon surrender of their Common or Preferred Securities Certificates. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Distributions payable on or prior to the Redemption Date for any Trust Securities called for redemption shall be payable to the Holders of such Trust Securities as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust Securities on the relevant record dates for the related Distribution Dates. If notice of redemption shall have been given and funds deposited as required, then upon the date of such deposit, (i) all rights of Securityholders holding Trust Securities so called for redemption shall cease, except (A) the right of such Securityholders to receive the Redemption Price, but without interest, and (B) the right of the Securityholders to cause the Conversion Agent to convert the Trust Securities, (ii) such Trust Securities shall cease to be Outstanding, and (iii) any Trust Securities Certificates will be deemed to represent Debentures having a principal amount equal to the stated Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities represented thereby and bearing accrued and unpaid interest in an amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid Distributions on such Trust Securities until such certificates are presented to the Securities Registrar for transfer, reissuance or cancellation. In the event that any date on which any Redemption Price is payable is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day (and without any reduction of the Redemption Price or any other payment on account of any such acceleration), in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. In the event that payment of the Redemption Price on account of any Trust Securities called for redemption is improperly withheld or refused and not paid either by the Trust or by the Depositor pursuant to the Guarantee, Distributions on such Trust Securities shall continue to accumulate, at the then applicable rate, from the Redemption Date originally established by the Trust for such Trust Securities to the date such Redemption Price is actually paid, in which case the actual payment date shall be the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the Redemption Price.

(e) Payment of the Redemption Price on the Trust Securities shall be made to the record holders thereof as they appear on the Securities Register for the Trust Securities on the relevant record date, which shall be the date 15 days prior to the relevant Redemption Date.

(f) Subject to Section 4.04(a), if less than all the Outstanding Trust Securities are to be redeemed on a Redemption Date, then the aggregate Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities to be redeemed shall be allocated on a pro rata basis (based on Liquidation Amounts) among the Common Securities and the Preferred Securities. The particular Preferred Securities to be redeemed shall be selected not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date by the Property Trustee from the Outstanding Preferred Securities not previously called for redemption, by such method (including, without limitation, by lot) as the Property Trustee shall deem fair and

appropriate and which may provide for the selection for redemption of portions (equal to such Liquidation Amount or an integral multiple of such Liquidation Amount in excess thereof) of the Liquidation Amount of Preferred Securities of a denomination larger than such Liquidation Amount; provided, however, in the event the redemption relates only to Preferred Securities purchased and held by the Depositor being redeemed in exchange for a Like Amount of Debentures, the Property Trustee shall select those particular Preferred Securities for redemption. The Property Trustee shall promptly notify the Securities Registrar in writing of the Preferred Securities selected for redemption and, in the case of any Preferred Securities selected for partial redemption, the Liquidation Amount thereof to be redeemed. For all purposes of this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, all provisions relating to the redemption of Trust Securities shall relate, in the case of any Trust Securities redeemed or to be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the Liquidation Amount of Trust Securities which has been or is to be redeemed.

Section 4.03 Conversion.

The Securityholders shall have the right at any time on or after October 23, 2009, and prior to the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of repayment of such Trust Securities, whether at maturity or upon redemption (either at the option of the Depositor or pursuant to a Tax Event, an Investment Company Event or a Capital Treatment Event), at their option, to cause the Conversion Agent to exchange Trust Securities, on behalf of the converting Holders, for a Like Amount of Debentures and to immediately convert such Debentures into shares of the Common Stock in the manner described herein and in the Indenture, on and subject to the following terms and conditions and the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture:

(a) The Preferred Securities shall be convertible at the office of the Conversion Agent into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Holder’s direction to the Conversion Agent to exchange such Preferred Securities for a portion of the Debentures theretofore held by the Trust on the basis of one Security per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, and immediately convert such amount of Debentures into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock of the Depositor at an initial conversion rate provided for in the Indenture of ___ shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, subject to certain adjustments set forth in the terms of the Indenture (as so adjusted, the “Conversion Ratio”).

(b) In order to convert Trust Securities into Common Stock, the Holder must submit to the Conversion Agent an irrevocable request to convert Trust Securities on behalf of such Holder (the “Conversion Request”), together, if the Trust Securities are in certificated form, with the Trust Security Certificates representing the Trust Securities to be converted. The Conversion Request shall (i) set forth the number of Trust Securities to be converted and the name or names, if other than the Holder, in which the shares of Common Stock should be issued, and (ii) direct the Conversion Agent (A) to exchange such Trust Securities for a portion of the Debentures held by the Trust (at the rate of exchange specified in Section 4.03(a) hereof), and (B) to immediately convert such Debentures on behalf of such Holder into Common Stock (at the Conversion Ratio referenced in Section 4.03(a) hereof).

and the Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall, upon receipt of such notice, deliver to the Conversion Agent the appropriate principal amount of Debentures for exchange in accordance with the Indenture and with this Section 4.03. The Conversion Agent shall thereupon notify the Depositor of the Holder’s election to convert such Debentures into shares of Common Stock.

(c) Distributions accruing between Distribution Dates shall not be paid on Preferred Securities that are converted, nor shall any payment, allowance or adjustment be made for accumulated and unpaid Distributions, whether or not in arrears, on converted Preferred Securities, except that if any Preferred Security is converted (i) on or after a record date for payment of Distributions thereon and prior to the related Distribution Date, the amount of the Distributions payable on the related Distribution Date with respect to such Preferred Security shall be paid by the converting Holder to the Trust and the Distributions payable on the related Distribution Date with respect to such Preferred Security shall be distributed to the Holder on such record date, despite such conversion, and (ii) during an Extended Interest Payment Period and after the Property Trustee mails a notice of redemption with respect to the Preferred Securities that are to be converted, accrued and unpaid Distributions through the Conversion Date of the Preferred Securities so converted shall be distributed to the Holder who converts such Preferred Securities, which Distribution shall be made on the Redemption Date fixed for redemption. Except as provided above, neither the Trust nor the Depositor shall make, or be required to make, any payment, allowance or adjustment upon any conversion on account of any accumulated and unpaid Distributions accrued on the Trust Securities (including any Additional Amount) surrendered for conversion, or on account of any accumulated and unpaid dividends, if any, on the shares of Common Stock issued upon such conversion. The Depositor shall make no payment or allowance for distributions on the shares of Common Stock issued upon such conversion, except to the extent that such shares of Common Stock are held of record on the record date for any such distributions and except as provided in Section 4.9 of the Indenture. Trust Securities shall be deemed to have been converted immediately prior to the close of business on the day on which a Conversion Request relating to such Trust Securities is received by the Trust in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this Section 4.03 (the “Conversion Date”). The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Debentures shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Common Stock at such time. As promptly as practicable on or after the Conversion Date, the Depositor shall issue and deliver at the office of the Conversion Agent a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion, together with the cash payment, if any, in lieu of any fraction of any share to the Person or Persons entitled to receive the same as provided in Section 4.03(e) hereof, unless otherwise directed by the Holder in the Conversion Request, and the Conversion Agent shall distribute such certificate or certificates to such Person or Persons.

(d) Each Holder of a Trust Security by his acceptance thereof appoints the Bank as such Holder’s Agent (the “Conversion Agent”) for the purpose of effecting the conversion of Trust Securities in accordance with this Section 4.03. In effecting the conversion and transactions described in this Section 4.03, the Conversion Agent shall be acting as agent of the Securityholders directing it to effect such conversion transactions. The Conversion Agent is hereby authorized (i) to exchange Trust Securities from time to time for Debentures held by the Trust in connection with the conversion of such Trust Securities with this Section 4.03, and (ii) to convert all or a portion of the Debentures into Common Stock and thereupon to deliver such

shares of Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.03 and to deliver to the Trust a new Debenture or Debentures for any resulting unconverted principal amount.

(e) [Reserved].

(f) The Trust shall deliver the shares of Common Stock of the Depositor received upon conversion of the Debentures to the converting Holder free and clear of all liens, charges, security interests and encumbrances, except for United States withholding taxes and the lien described in Section 8.06. Each of the Depositor and the Trust shall prepare and shall use its best efforts to obtain and keep in force such governmental or regulatory permits or other authorizations as may be required by law, and shall comply with all applicable requirements as to registration or qualification of the Common Stock (and all requirements to list the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of Debentures that are at the time applicable), in order to enable the Depositor to lawfully issue Common Stock to the Trust upon conversion of the Debentures and the Trust to lawfully deliver the Common Stock to each Holder upon conversion of the Trust Securities.

(g) The Depositor shall pay any and all taxes that may be payable in respect of the issue or delivery of shares of Common Stock on conversion of Debentures and the delivery of the shares of Common Stock by the Trust upon conversion of the Trust Securities. The Depositor shall not, however, be required to pay any tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue and delivery of shares of Common Stock in a name other than that in which the Trust Securities so converted were registered, and no such issue or delivery shall be made unless and until the person requesting such issue or delivery has paid to the Trust the amount of any such tax or has established to the satisfaction of the Trust that it has been paid.

(h) Nothing in the preceding Section 4.03 shall (1) limit the requirements of the Trust to withhold taxes pursuant to the terms of the Trust Securities or as set forth in this Trust Agreement or (2) otherwise require the Property Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or the Trust to pay any amount on account of such withholdings.

(including Additional Amounts, if applicable) on, or the Redemption Price of, Preferred Securities then due and payable.

(b) In the case of the occurrence of any Event of Default resulting from a Debenture Event of Default, the Holder of Common Securities shall be deemed to have waived any right to act with respect to any such Event of Default under this Trust Agreement until the effect of all such Events of Default with respect to the Preferred Securities shall have been cured, waived or otherwise eliminated. Until any such Event of Default under this Trust Agreement with respect to the Preferred Securities shall have been so cured, waived or otherwise eliminated, the Property Trustee shall act solely on behalf of the Holders of the Preferred Securities and not the Holder of the Common Securities, and only the Holders of the Preferred Securities shall have the right to direct the Property Trustee to act on their behalf.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.03, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Preferred Securities Certificate at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 5.09, the Administrative Trustees or any one of them shall execute and deliver to, and in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Preferred Securities Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount dated the date of execution by such Administrative Trustee or Trustees. The Securities Registrar shall not be required to register the transfer of any Preferred Securities that have been called for redemption. At the option of a Holder, Preferred Securities Certificates may be exchanged for other Preferred Securities Certificates in authorized denominations of the same class and of a like aggregate Liquidation Amount upon surrender of the Preferred Securities Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency maintained pursuant to Section 5.09.

(c) Every Preferred Securities Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, subject to the provisions of Section 5.03, shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Property Trustee and the Securities Registrar duly executed by the Holder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each Preferred Securities Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Property Trustee in accordance with its customary practice. The Trust shall not be required to (i) issue, register the transfer of, or exchange any Preferred Securities during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 calendar days before the date of mailing of a notice of redemption of any Preferred Securities called for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such mailing; or (ii) register the transfer of or exchange any Preferred Securities so selected for redemption, in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of any such Preferred Securities being redeemed in part.

(d) No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Preferred Securities Certificates, subject to the provisions of Section 5.03, but the Securities 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 Preferred Securities Certificates.

(e) Preferred Securities may only be transferred, in whole or in part, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Trust Agreement. Any transfer or purported transfer of any Preferred Security not made in accordance with this Trust Agreement shall be null and void. A Preferred Security may be transferred, in whole or in part, to a Person who takes delivery in the form of another Preferred Security.

Section 5.06 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Securities Certificates.

If (a) any mutilated Trust Securities Certificate shall be surrendered to the Securities Registrar, or if the Securities Registrar shall receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Securities Certificate; and (b) there shall be delivered to the Securities Registrar and the Administrative Trustees such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then in the absence of notice that such Trust Securities Certificate shall have been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Administrative Trustees, or any one of them, on behalf of the Trust shall execute and make available for delivery, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Trust Securities Certificate, a new Trust Securities Certificate of like class, tenor and denomination. The Securities Registrar, Property Trustee and Delaware Trustee shall be deemed not to have notice of such acquisition unless a Responsible Officer of such Securities Registrar, Property Trustee or Delaware Trustee has received written notice of such acquisition. In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Securities Certificate under this Section 5.06, the Administrative Trustees or the Securities 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 Trust Securities Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.06 shall constitute conclusive evidence of an undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Securities Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 5.07 Persons Deemed Securityholders.

The Trustees, the Paying Agent and the Securities Registrar shall treat the Person in whose name any Trust Securities Certificate shall be registered in the Securities Register as the owner of such Trust Securities Certificate for the purpose of receiving Distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustees nor the Securities Registrar shall be bound by any notice to the contrary.

The rights of

Securityholders to communicate with other Securityholders with respect to their rights under this Trust Agreement or under the Trust Securities, and the corresponding rights of the Trustee shall be as provided in the Trust Indenture Act. Each Holder, by receiving and holding a Trust Securities Certificate, and each owner shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold the Depositor, the Property Trustee or the Administrative Trustees accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of the source from which such information was derived.

Section 5.09 Maintenance of Office or Agency.

The Administrative Trustees shall maintain, or cause to be maintained, at the Depositor’s offices at 2200 Montauk Highway, Bridgehampton, New York 11932, or other location designated by the Administrative Trustees, an office where Preferred Securities Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Trustees in respect of the Trust Securities Certificates may be served. The Administrative Trustees initially designate the Corporate Trust Office of the Property Trustee, 1100 North Market Street, Wilmington, Delware 19890, as the principal corporate trust office for such purposes.

The Paying Agent shall initially be the Property Trustee, and any co-paying agent chosen by the Property Trustee must be acceptable to the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor.

In the event that the Property Trustee shall no longer be the Paying Agent or a successor Paying Agent shall resign or its authority to act be revoked, the Administrative Trustees shall appoint a successor that is acceptable to the Property Trustee and the Depositor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The Administrative Trustees shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Administrative Trustees to execute and deliver to the Trustees an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustees that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Securityholders in trust for the benefit of the Securityholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Securityholders. The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed funds to the Property Trustee and, upon removal of a Paying Agent, such Paying Agent shall also return all funds in its possession to the Property Trustee. The provisions of Sections 8.01, 8.03 and 8.06 shall apply to the Property Trustee also in its role as Paying Agent, for so long as the Property Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable,

to any other Paying Agent appointed hereunder. Any reference in this Agreement to the Paying Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

Section 5.11 Appointment of Conversion Agent.

The Conversion Agent shall convert the Trust Securities of the Securityholders in accordance with Section 4.03 hereof.

The Conversion Agent shall initially be the Bank, and any co-paying agent chosen by the Bank, and acceptable to the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor. Any Person acting as Conversion Agent shall be permitted to resign as Conversion Agent upon 30 days’ written notice to the Administrative Trustees, the Property Trustee and the Depositor. In the event that the Bank shall no longer be the Conversion Agent or a successor Conversion Agent shall resign or its authority to act be revoked, the Administrative Trustees shall appoint a successor that is acceptable to the Property Trustee and the Depositor to act as conversion Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company). The provisions of Sections 8.01, 8.03 and 8.06 of this Trust Agreement shall apply to the Bank also in its role as Conversion Agent, for so long as the Bank shall act as Conversion Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other conversion agent appointed hereunder, and any Conversion Agent shall be bound by the requirements with respect to conversion agents of securities issued pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act. Any reference in this Trust Agreement to the Conversion Agent shall include any co-paying agent unless the context requires otherwise.

Section 5.12 Ownership of Common Securities by Depositor.

On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall acquire and retain beneficial and record ownership of the Common Securities.

Section 5.15 Rights of Securityholders.

(a) The legal title to the Trust Property is vested exclusively in the Property Trustee (in its capacity as such) in accordance with Section 2.09, and the Securityholders shall not have any right or title therein other than the undivided beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust conferred by their Trust Securities and they shall have no right to call for any partition or division of property, profits or rights of the Trust except as described below. The Trust Securities shall be personal property giving only the rights specifically set forth therein and in this Trust Agreement. The Trust Securities shall have no preemptive or similar rights. When issued and delivered to Holders of the Preferred Securities against payment of the purchase price therefor, the Preferred Securities shall be fully paid and nonassessable interests in the Trust. The Holders of the Preferred Securities, in their capacities as such, shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

(b) For so long as any Preferred Securities remain Outstanding, if, upon a Debenture Event of Default, the Indenture Trustee fails or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Debentures fail to declare the principal of all of the Debentures to be immediately due and payable, the Holders of at least 25% in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities then Outstanding shall have such right by a notice in writing to the Depositor and the Indenture Trustee; and upon any such declaration such principal amount of and the accrued interest on all of the Debentures shall become immediately due and payable, provided that the payment of principal and interest on such Debentures shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in the Indenture.

ARTICLE VI. ACTS OF SECURITYHOLDERS; MEETINGS; VOTING

Section 6.01 Limitations on Voting Rights.

(a) Except as provided in this Section 6.01, in Sections 5.15, 8.10 and 10.02 and in the Indenture and as otherwise required by law, no record Holder of Preferred Securities shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the administration, operation and management of the Trust or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Trust Securities Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Securityholders from time to time as partners or members of an association.

(b) So long as any Debentures are held by the Property Trustee on behalf of the Trust, the Trustees shall not (i) direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee, or executing any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee with respect to such Debentures; (ii) waive any past default which is waivable

under Article VIII of the Indenture; (iii) exercise any right to rescind or annul a declaration that the principal of all the Debentures shall be due and payable; or (iv) consent to any amendment, modification or termination of the Indenture or the Debentures, where such consent shall be required, without, in each case, obtaining the prior approval of the Holders of at least a majority in Liquidation Amount of all Outstanding Preferred Securities; provided, however, that where a consent under the Indenture would require the consent of each holder of outstanding Debentures affected thereby, no such consent shall be given by the Property Trustee without the prior written consent of each Holder of Preferred Securities. The Trustees shall not revoke any action previously authorized or approved by a vote of the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities, except by a subsequent vote of the Holders of the Outstanding Preferred Securities. The Property Trustee shall notify each Holder of the Outstanding Preferred Securities of any notice of default received from the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Debentures. In addition to obtaining the foregoing approvals of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, prior to taking any of the foregoing actions, the Trustees shall, at the expense of the Depositor, obtain an Opinion of Counsel experienced in such matters to the effect that the Trust shall continue to be classified as a grantor trust and not as an association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes on account of such action.

(c) If any proposed amendment to the Trust Agreement provides for, or the Trustees otherwise propose to effect, (i) any action that would adversely affect in any material respect the powers, preferences or special rights of the Preferred Securities, whether by way of amendment to the Trust Agreement or otherwise; or (ii) the dissolution, winding-up or termination of the Trust, other than pursuant to the terms of this Trust Agreement, then the Holders of Outstanding Preferred Securities as a class shall be entitled to vote on such amendment or proposal and such amendment or proposal shall not be effective except with the approval of the Holders of at least a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Outstanding Preferred Securities. No amendment to this Trust Agreement may be made if, as a result of such amendment, in the Opinion of Counsel (obtained at Depositor’s expense) the Trust would cease to be classified as a grantor trust or would be classified as an association taxable as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes or the Trust would lose its Investment Company Act exception.

Section 6.02 Notice of Meetings.

Notice of all meetings of the Securityholders of Outstanding Preferred Securities, stating the time, place and purpose of the meeting, shall be given by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 10.08 to each such Preferred Securityholder of record, at his registered address, at least 15 days and not more than 90 days before the meeting.

Any adjourned meeting may be held as adjourned without further notice.

Section 6.03 Meetings of Preferred Securityholders.

(a) No annual meeting of Securityholders is required to be held. The Administrative Trustees, however, shall call a meeting of Securityholders to vote on any matter in respect of which Preferred Securityholders are entitled to vote upon the written request of the Preferred Securityholders of 25% of the Outstanding Preferred Securities (based upon their aggregate Liquidation Amount) and the Administrative Trustees or the Property Trustee may, at any time

in their discretion, call a meeting of Preferred Securityholders of Outstanding Preferred Securities to vote on any matters as to which such Preferred Securityholders are entitled to vote.

(b) Preferred Securityholders of record of 50% of the Outstanding Preferred Securities (based upon their aggregate Liquidation Amount), present in person or by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at any meeting of Securityholders.

(c) If a quorum is present at a meeting, an affirmative vote by the Preferred Securityholders of record present, in person or by proxy, holding more than a majority of the Preferred Securities (based upon their aggregate Liquidation Amount) held by the Preferred Securityholders of record present, either in person or by proxy, at such meeting shall constitute the action of the Securityholders, unless this Trust Agreement requires a greater number of affirmative votes.

Section 6.04 Voting Rights.

Securityholders shall be entitled to one vote for each $1,000 of Liquidation Amount represented by their Trust Securities (with any fractional multiple thereof rounded up or down as the case may be to the closest integral multiple) in respect of any matter as to which such Securityholders are entitled to vote.

Section 6.05 Proxies, Etc.

At any meeting of Securityholders, any Securityholder entitled to vote thereat may vote by proxy, provided that no proxy, shall be voted at any meeting unless it shall have been placed on file with the Administrative Trustees, or with such other officer or agent of the Trust as the Administrative Trustees may direct, for verification prior to the time at which such vote shall be taken. Only Holders shall be entitled to vote. When Trust Securities are held jointly by several persons, any one of them may vote at any meeting in person or by proxy in respect of such Trust Securities, but if more than one of them shall be present at such meeting in person or by proxy, and such joint owners or their proxies so present disagree as to any vote to be cast, such vote shall not be received in respect of such Trust Securities. A proxy purporting to be executed by or on behalf of a Securityholder shall be deemed valid unless challenged at or prior to its exercise, and, the burden of proving invalidity shall rest on the challenger. No proxy shall be valid more than three years after its date of execution.

Section 6.06 Securityholder Action by Written Consent.

Any action which may be taken by Securityholders at a meeting may be taken without a meeting if Securityholders holding more than a majority of all Outstanding Trust Securities (based upon their aggregate Liquidation Amount) entitled to vote in respect of such action (or such larger proportion thereof as shall be required by any express provision of this Trust Agreement) shall consent to the action in writing (based upon their aggregate Liquidation Amount).

Section 6.07 Record Date for Voting and Other Purposes.

For the purposes of determining the Securityholders who are entitled to notice of and to vote at any meeting or by written consent, or to participate in any Distribution on the Trust Securities in respect of which a record date is not otherwise provided for in this Trust Agreement, or for the purpose of any other action, the Administrative Trustees or the Property Trustee may from time to time fix a date, not more than 90 days prior to the date of any meeting of Securityholders or the payment of Distribution or other action, as the case may be, as a record date for the determination of the identity of the Securityholders of record for such purposes.

Section 6.08 Acts of Securityholders.

(a) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided or permitted by this Trust Agreement to be given, made or taken by Securityholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Securityholders in person or by an agent duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to an Administrative Trustee. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Securityholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Trust Agreement and (subject to Section 8.01) conclusive in favor of the Trustees, if made in the manner provided in this Section 6.08.

(b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by a certificate of a notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Where such execution is by a signer acting in a capacity other than his individual capacity, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any such instrument or writing, or the authority of the Person executing the same, may also be proved in any other manner which any Trustee receiving the same deems sufficient.

(d) Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other Act of the Securityholder of any Trust Security shall bind every future Securityholder of the same Trust Security and the Securityholder of every Trust Security issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof in respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustees or the Trust in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action is made upon such Trust Security.

(e) Without limiting the foregoing, a Securityholder entitled hereunder to take any action hereunder with regard to any particular Trust Security may do so with regard to all or any part of the Liquidation Amount of such Trust Security or by one or more duly appointed agents

each of which may do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such liquidation amount.

(f) A Securityholder may institute a legal proceeding directly against the Depositor under the Guarantee to enforce its rights under the Guarantee without first instituting a legal proceeding against the Guarantee Trustee (as defined in the Guarantee), the Trust or any Person.

Section 6.09 Inspection of Records.

Upon reasonable notice to the Administrative Trustees and the Property Trustee, the records of the Trust shall be open to inspection at the principal executive office of the Trust (as indicated in Section 2.02) by Holders of the Trust Securities during normal business hours for any purpose reasonably related to such Holder’s interest as a Holder.

ARTICLE VIII. TRUSTEES

Section 8.01 Certain Duties and Responsibilities.

(a) The duties and responsibilities of the Trustees shall be as provided by this Trust Agreement and, in the case of the Property Trustee, by the Trust Indenture Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Trustees to expend or risk their own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of their duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of their rights or powers, if they shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. No Trustee shall be liable for its act or omissions hereunder except as a result of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this Trust Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustees shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 8.01. To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Trustees have duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust or to the Securityholders, the Delaware Trustee or such Administrative Trustee shall not be liable to the Trust or to any

Securityholder for such Trustee’s good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities of the Trustees otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Depositor and the Securityholders to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustees.

(b) All payments made by the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent in respect of the Trust Securities shall be made only from the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property and only to the extent that there shall be sufficient revenue or proceeds from the Trust Property to enable the Property Trustee or a Paying Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Securityholder, by its acceptance of a Trust Security, agrees that it shall look solely to the revenue and proceeds from the Trust Property to the extent legally available for distribution to it as herein provided and that the Trustees are not personally liable to it for any amount distributable in respect of any Trust Security or for any other liability in respect of any Trust Security. This Section 8.01(b) does not limit the liability of the Trustees expressly set forth elsewhere in this Trust Agreement.

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

(i) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by an authorized officer of the Property Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Property Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;

(ii) the Property 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 not less than a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Property Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement;

(iii) the Property Trustee’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safe keeping and physical preservation of the Debentures and the Payment Account shall be to deal with such property in a similar manner as the Property Trustee deals with similar property for its own account, subject to the protections and limitations on liability afforded to the Property Trustee under this Trust Agreement;

(iv) the Property Trustee shall not be liable for any interest on any money received by it except as it may otherwise agree in writing with the Depositor and money held by the Property Trustee need not be segregated from other funds held by it except in relation to the Payment Account maintained by the Property Trustee pursuant to Section 3.01 and except to the extent otherwise required by law; and

(d) the Bank and the Property Trustee shall not be responsible for monitoring the compliance by the Delaware Bank, the Delaware Trustee, the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor with their respective duties under this Trust Agreement, nor shall the Bank or the Property Trustee be liable for the negligence or gross negligence, default or misconduct of the Delaware Bank, the Delaware Trustee, the Administrative Trustees or the Depositor.

Section 8.02 Certain Notices.

(a) Within five Business Days after the occurrence of any Event of Default actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Property Trustee, the Property Trustee shall transmit, in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.08, notice of such Event of Default to the Securityholders, the Administrative Trustees and the Depositor, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived. For purposes of this Section 8.02 the term Event of Default means any event that is, or after notice or lapse of time or both would become, an Event of Default.

(b) The Administrative Trustees shall transmit, to the Securityholders in the manner and to the extent provided in Section 10.08, notice of the Depositor’s election to begin or further extend an Extended Interest Payment Period on the Debentures (unless such election shall have been revoked) and of any election by the Depositor to accelerate the Maturity Date of the Debentures, as defined in the Indenture, within the time specified for transmitting such notice to the holders of the Debentures pursuant to the Indenture.

Section 8.03 Certain Rights of Property Trustee.

Subject to the provisions of Section 8.01:

(a) the Property Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting in good faith upon any resolution, Opinion of Counsel, certificate, written representation of a Holder or transferee, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond, debenture, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

(b) if (i) in performing its duties under this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee is required to decide between alternative courses of action; or (ii) in construing any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee finds the same ambiguous or inconsistent with other provisions contained herein; or (iii) the Property Trustee is unsure of the application of any provision of this Trust Agreement, then, except as to any matter as to which the Preferred Securityholders are entitled to vote under the terms of this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deliver a notice to the Depositor requesting written instructions of the Depositor as to the course of action to be taken and the Property Trustee shall take such action, or refrain from taking such action, as the Property Trustee shall be instructed in writing to take, or to refrain from taking, by the Depositor; provided, however, that if the Property Trustee does not receive such instructions of the Depositor within 10 Business Days after it has delivered such notice, or such reasonably shorter period of time set forth in such notice (which to the extent practicable shall not be less than 2 Business Days), it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Trust Agreement as it shall deem advisable and in the best interests of the Securityholders, in which event the Property Trustee shall have no liability except for its own bad faith, negligence or willful misconduct;

(c) any direction or act of the Depositor or the Administrative Trustees contemplated by this Trust Agreement shall be sufficiently evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate;

(d) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable that a matter be established before undertaking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, the Property 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 Depositor or the Administrative Trustees;

(e) the Property Trustee shall have no duty to see to any recording, filing or registration of any instrument (including any financing or continuation statement, any filing under tax or securities laws or any filing under tax or securities laws) or any rerecording, refiling or reregistration thereof;

(f) at Depositor’s expense (1) the Property Trustee may consult with counsel of its choice (which counsel may be counsel to the Depositor or any of its Affiliates) and the advice of such counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in reliance thereon and, in accordance with such advice, and (2) the Property Trustee shall have the right at any time to seek instructions concerning the administration of this Trust Agreement from any court of competent jurisdiction;

(g) the Property Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement at the request or direction of any of the Securityholders pursuant to this Trust Agreement, unless such Securityholders shall have offered to the Property Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Property Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default (that has not been cured or waived) to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs;

(h) the Property 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, consent, order, approval, bond, debenture, note or other evidence of indebtedness or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by one or more Securityholders, but the Property Trustee may make such further inquiry or investigation into such facts or matters as it may see fit;

(i) the Property Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through its agents or attorneys, and the Property Trustee shall not be liable for the default or misconduct of such other agents or attorneys; provided that the Property Trustee shall be responsible for its own negligence or recklessness with respect to selection of any agent or attorney appointed by it hereunder;

(j) whenever in the administration of this Trust Agreement the Property Trustee shall deem it desirable to receive instructions with respect to enforcing any remedy or right or taking any other action hereunder the Property Trustee (i) may request instructions from the Holders of

the Trust Securities which instructions may only be given by the Holders of the same proportion in Liquidation Amount of the this Trust Agreement as would be entitled to direct the Property Trustee under the terms of the Trust Securities in respect of such remedy, right or action; (ii) may refrain from enforcing such remedy or right or taking such other action until such instructions are received; and (iii) shall be protected in acting in accordance with such instructions; and

(k) except as otherwise expressly provided by this Trust Agreement, the Property Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action that is discretionary under the provisions of this Trust Agreement. No provision of this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to impose any duty or obligation on the Property 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 Property 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 Property Trustee shall be construed to be a duty.

Section 8.04 Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Securities.

The Recitals contained herein and in the Trust Securities Certificates and the Private Placement Memorandum of the Trust and the Depositor dated October 15, 2009, shall be taken as the statements of the Trust, and the Trustees do not assume any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustees shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of the proceeds of the Debentures.

Section 8.05 May Hold Securities.

Any Trustee or any other agent of any Trustee or the Trust, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Trust Securities and, subject to Sections 8.08 and 8.13 and except as provided in the definition of the term Outstanding in Article I, may otherwise deal with the Trust with the same rights it would have if it were not a Trustee or such other agent.

Section 8.06 Compensation; Indemnity; Fees.

The Depositor agrees:

(a) to pay to the Bank, the Delaware Bank and Trustees from time to time compensation for all services rendered by them hereunder (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust), in the case of the Delaware Trustee, the Delaware Bank, the Bank and the Property Trustee, as set forth in a written agreement between the Depositor and the Property Trustee;

(b) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustees upon request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustees in accordance with any provision of this Trust Agreement (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 such Trustee’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct; and

(c) to indemnify each of the Bank, the Delaware Bank, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustees or any predecessor Trustee for, and to hold the Bank, the Delaware Bank, the Delaware Trustee and the Trustees harmless against, any loss, damage, claims, liability, penalty or expense of any kind or nature whatsoever, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of this Trust Agreement, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability relating to this Agreement, the Guarantee or the Indenture (“Losses”), except Losses directly and primarily resulting from such Trustee’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

Depositor’s obligations shall survive termination of the Trust and the Trust Agreement.

The obligations of the Depositor under this Section 8.06 to compensate and indemnify the Trustees and to pay or reimburse the Trustees for expenses, disbursements and advances shall constitute additional indebtedness hereunder. Such additional indebtedness shall be secured by a lien upon all property and funds held or collected by the Trustees as such, except funds held in trust to pay Distributions on Preferred Securities.

Section 8.07 Corporate Property Trustee Required; Eligibility of Trustees.

(a) There shall at all times be a Property Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. The Property Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $100,000,000. If any such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.07, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time the Property Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.07, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect hereinafter specified in this Article VIII. The Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person.

(b) There shall at all times be one or more Administrative Trustees hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities. Each Administrative Trustee shall be either a natural person who is at least 21 years of age or a legal entity that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind that entity.

(c) There shall at all times be a Delaware Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities. The Delaware Trustee shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the State of Delaware; or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the State of Delaware and that otherwise meets the requirements of applicable Delaware law that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such entity.

Section 8.08 Conflicting Interests.

If the Property Trustee has or shall acquire a conflicting interest within the meaning of Section 310(b) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Property Trustee shall either eliminate such interest or resign, to the extent and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the Trust Indenture Act and this Trust Agreement.

Section 8.09 Co-Trustees and Separate Trustee.

(a) Unless a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, at any time or times, for the purpose of meeting the legal requirements of the Trust Indenture Act or of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Property may at the time be located, the Depositor shall have power to appoint, and upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor shall for such purpose join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to appoint, one or more Persons approved by the Property Trustee either to act as co-trustee, jointly with the Property Trustee, of all or any part of such Trust Property, or to the extent required by law to act as separate trustee of any such property, in either case with such powers as may be provided in the instrument of appointment, and to vest in such Person or Persons in the capacity aforesaid, any property, title, right or power deemed necessary or desirable, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.09. If the Depositor does not join in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee alone shall have power to make such appointment. Any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed pursuant to this Section 8.09 shall either be (i) a natural person who is at least 21 years of age and a resident of the United States; or (ii) a legal entity with its principal place of business in the United States that shall act through one or more persons authorized to bind such entity.

(b) Should any written instrument from the Depositor be required by any co-trustee or separate trustee so appointed for more fully confirming to such co-trustee or separate trustee such property, title, right, or power, any and all such instruments shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged, and delivered by the Depositor.

(c) Every co-trustee or separate trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, but to such extent only, be appointed subject to the following terms, namely:

(i) The Trust Securities shall be executed and delivered and all rights, powers, duties and obligations hereunder in respect of the custody of securities, cash and other personal property held by, or required to be deposited or pledged with, the Trustees specified hereunder, shall be exercised, solely by such Trustees and not by such co-trustee or separate trustee.

(ii) The rights, powers, duties and obligations hereby conferred or imposed upon the Property Trustee in respect of any property covered by such appointment shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Property Trustee or by the Property Trustee and such co-trustee or separate trustee jointly, as shall be provided in the instrument appointing such co-trustee or separate trustee, except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act is to be performed, the Property Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations shall be exercised and performed by such co-trustee or separate trustee.

(iii) The Property Trustee at any time, by an instrument in writing executed by it, with the written concurrence of the Depositor, may accept the resignation of or remove any co-trustee or separate trustee appointed under this Section 8.09, and, in case a Debenture Event

of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Property Trustee shall have the power to accept the resignation of, or remove, any such co-trustee or separate trustee without the concurrence of the Depositor. Upon the written request of the Property Trustee, the Depositor shall join with the Property Trustee in the execution, delivery and performance of all instruments and agreements necessary or proper to effectuate such resignation or removal. A successor to any co-trustee or separate trustee so resigned or removed may be appointed in the manner provided in this Section 8.09.

(iv) No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of the Property Trustee or any other trustee hereunder.

(v) The Property Trustee shall not be liable by reason of any act of a co-trustee or separate trustee.

(vi) Any Act of Holders delivered to the Property Trustee shall be deemed to have been delivered to each such co-trustee and separate trustee.

Section 8.10 Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor.

(a) No resignation or removal of any Trustee (the “Relevant Trustee”) and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this Article VIII shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11.

(b) Subject to the immediately preceding paragraph, a Trustee may resign at any time with respect to the Trust Securities by giving written notice thereof to the Securityholders. If the instrument of acceptance by the successor Trustee required by Section 8.11 shall not have been delivered to the Relevant Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the Relevant Trustee may petition, at the expense of the Depositor, any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities.

(c) Unless a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of the Common Securityholder. If a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, or both of them, may be removed at such time by Act of the Holders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, delivered to the Relevant Trustee (in its individual capacity and on behalf of the Trust). An Administrative Trustee may be removed by the Common Securityholder at any time.

(d) If any Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting as Trustee, or if a vacancy shall occur in the office of any Trustee for any cause, at a time when no Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Common Securityholder, by Act of the Common Securityholder delivered to the Relevant Trustee and the other Trustees, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, and the successor Trustee or Trustees shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11. If the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of continuing to act as the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, at a time when a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, the

Preferred Securityholders, by Act of the Securityholders of a majority in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities then Outstanding delivered to the Relevant Trustee and the other Trustees, shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, and such successor Trustee or Trustees shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11. If an Administrative Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting as Administrative Trustee, at a time when a Debenture Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Common Securityholder, by Act of the Common Securityholder delivered to the Relevant Trustee and the other Trustees, shall promptly appoint a successor Administrative Trustee or Administrative Trustees with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, and such successor Administrative Trustee or Administrative Trustees shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 8.11. If no successor Administrative Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall have been so appointed by the Common Securityholder or the Preferred Securityholders and accepted appointment in the manner required by Section 8.11, any Securityholder who has been a Securityholder of Trust Securities may petition, on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee or Trustees with respect to the Trust Securities.

(e) The Property Trustee shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of a Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Securityholders and the Depositor in the manner provided in Section 10.08. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its Corporate Trust Office if it is the Property Trustee.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Trust Agreement, in the event any Administrative Trustee or a Delaware Trustee who is a natural person dies or becomes, in the opinion of the Depositor, incompetent or incapacitated, the vacancy created by such death, incompetence or incapacity may be filled by (a) the unanimous act of the remaining Administrative Trustees if there are at least two of them; or (b) otherwise by the Depositor (with the successor in each case being a Person who satisfies the eligibility requirement for Administrative Trustees or Delaware Trustees set forth in Section 8.07).

Section 8.11 Acceptance of Appointment by Successor.

(a) In case of the appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust, the Relevant Trustee and each successor Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities shall execute and deliver an instrument hereto wherein each successor Trustee shall accept such appointment and which shall contain such provisions as shall be necessary or desirable to transfer and confirm to, and to vest in, each successor Trustee all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust and upon the execution and delivery of such instrument the resignation or removal of the Relevant Trustee shall become effective to the extent provided therein and each such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the Relevant Trustee with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust; but, on request of the Trust or any successor Trustee, the Relevant Trustee shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such successor Trustee all Trust Property, all proceeds thereof and money held by such Relevant Trustee hereunder with respect to the Trust Securities and the Trust.

(b) Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Trust shall execute any and all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee all such rights, powers and trusts referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph, as the case may be.

(c) No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VIII.

Section 8.12 Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.

Any Person into which the Property Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or any Administrative Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of such Trustee, shall be the successor of such Trustee hereunder, provided such Person shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VIII, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.

Section 8.13 Preferential Collection of Claims Against Depositor or Trust.

If and when the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Depositor or the Trust (or any other obligor upon the Debentures or the Trust Securities), the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as the case may be, shall be subject to and shall take all actions necessary in order to comply with the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act regarding the collection of claims against the Depositor or Trust (or any such other obligor).

Section 8.14 Reports by Property Trustee.

(a) If required, on or before July 31 of each year, commencing July 31, 2010, the Property Trustee shall transmit to the Securityholders such reports concerning the Property Trustee, its actions under this Trust Agreement and the property and funds in its possession in its capacity as the Property Trustee as may be required pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act in the manner provided pursuant thereto.

(b) If required, a copy of each such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Property Trustee with The Nasdaq Global Select Market, and each national securities exchange or other organization upon which the Trust Securities are listed, and also with the Commission and the Depositor.

Section 8.15 [Reserved].

Section 8.16 Evidence of Compliance With Conditions Precedent.

Each of the Depositor and the Administrative Trustees on behalf of the Trust shall provide to the Property Trustee such evidence of compliance with any conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Trust Agreement that relate to any of the matters set forth in Section 314(c) of the Trust Indenture Act. Any certificate or opinion required to be given by an officer

pursuant to Section 314(c)(1) of the Trust Indenture Act shall be given in the form of an Officers’ Certificate.

Section 8.17 Number of Trustees.

(a) The number of Trustees shall be five, provided that the Holder of all of the Common Securities by written instrument may increase or decrease the number of Administrative Trustees. The Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may be the same Person.

(b) If a Trustee ceases to hold office for any reason and the number of Trustees is not reduced pursuant to Section 8.17(a), or if the number of Trustees is increased pursuant to Section 8.17(a), a vacancy shall occur. The vacancy shall be filled with a successor Trustee appointed in accordance with Section 8.10.

(c) The death, resignation, retirement, removal, bankruptcy, incompetence or incapacity to perform duties hereunder of a Trustee shall not operate to annul the Trust. Whenever a vacancy in the number of Administrative Trustees shall occur, until such vacancy is filled by the appointment of a successor Administrative Trustee in accordance with Section 8.10, the remaining Administrative Trustees in office, regardless of their number (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement), shall have all the powers granted to the Administrative Trustees and shall discharge all the duties imposed upon the Administrative Trustees by this Trust Agreement.

Section 8.18 Delegation of Power.

(a) Any Administrative Trustee may, by power of attorney consistent with applicable law, delegate to any other natural person over the age of 21 his or her power for the purpose of executing any documents contemplated in Section 2.07(a)(i); and

(b) The Administrative Trustees shall have power to delegate from time to time to such of their number or to the Depositor the doing of such things and the execution of such instruments either in the name of the Trust or in the names of the Administrative Trustees or otherwise as the Administrative 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.

Section 8.19 Voting.

Except as otherwise provided in this Trust Agreement, the consent or approval of the Administrative Trustees shall require consent or approval by not less than a majority of the Administrative Trustees, unless there are only two, in which case both must consent.

ARTICLE IX. TERMINATION, LIQUIDATION AND MERGER

Section 9.01 Termination Upon Expiration Date.

Unless earlier dissolved, the Trust shall automatically dissolve on December 31, 2039 (the “Expiration Date”) subject to distribution of the Trust Property in accordance with Section 9.04.

Section 9.02 Early Termination.

The first to occur of any of the following events is an Early Termination Event:

(a) the occurrence of a Bankruptcy Event in respect of, or the dissolution or liquidation of, the Depositor;

(b) delivery of written direction to the Property Trustee by the Depositor at any time (which direction is wholly optional and within the discretion of the Depositor, subject to Depositor having received prior approval of, or non-objection from, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System if so required under applicable guidelines, policies or regulations thereof) to dissolve the Trust and distribute the Debentures to Securityholders in exchange for the Preferred Securities in accordance with Section 9.04;

(c) the redemption of all of the Preferred Securities in connection with the redemption of all of the Debentures (whether upon a Debenture Redemption Date or the maturity of the Debenture);

(e) the distribution of Common Stock to all Securityholders upon conversion of all outstanding Preferred Securities.

Section 9.03 Termination.

The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustees and the Trust created and continued hereby shall terminate upon the latest to occur of the following: (a) the distribution by the Property Trustee to Securityholders upon the liquidation of the Trust pursuant to Section 9.04, or upon the redemption of all of the Trust Securities pursuant to Section 4.02, of all amounts required to be distributed hereunder upon the final payment of the Trust Securities; (b) the payment of claims and obligations of the Trust; (c) the discharge of all administrative duties of the Administrative Trustees, including the performance of any tax reporting obligations with respect to the Trust or the Securityholders; and (d) the filing of a Certificate of Cancellation by an Administrative Trustee under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act. Depositor’s obligations under Sections 8.06 and 10.09 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Section 9.04 Liquidation.

(a) If an Early Termination Event specified in Section 9.02 occurs or upon the Expiration Date, the Trust shall be liquidated by the Trustees as expeditiously as the Trustees determine to be possible by distributing, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, to each Securityholder a Like Amount of Debentures, subject to Section 9.04(d). Notice of liquidation shall be given by the Property Trustee by first-class mail, postage prepaid, mailed not later than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the Liquidation Date to each Holder of Trust Securities at such Holder’s address appearing in the Securities Register. All notices of liquidation shall:

(i) state the Liquidation Date;

(ii) state that from and after the Liquidation Date, the Trust Securities shall no longer be deemed to be Outstanding and any Trust Securities Certificates not surrendered for exchange shall be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debentures; and

(iii) provide such information with respect to the mechanics by which Holders may exchange Trust Securities Certificates for Debentures, or, if Section 9.04(d) applies, receive a Liquidation Distribution.

(b) Except where Section 9.02(c), 9.02(e) or 9.04(d) applies, in order to effect the liquidation of the Trust and distribution of the Debentures to Securityholders, the Property Trustee shall establish a record date for such distribution (which shall be not more than 45 days prior to the Liquidation Date) and, either itself acting as exchange agent or through the appointment of a separate exchange agent, shall establish such procedures as it shall deem appropriate to effect the distribution of Debentures in exchange for the Outstanding Trust Securities Certificates.

(c) Except where Section 9.02(c) or 9.04(d) applies, after the Liquidation Date, (i) the Trust Securities shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding; (ii) certificates representing a Like Amount of Debentures shall be issued to Holders of Trust Securities Certificates upon surrender of such certificates to the Property Trustee or its agent for exchange; (iii) the Depositor shall use its reasonable efforts to have the Debentures listed on The Nasdaq Global Select Market or in, on or by such other securities exchange or other organization as the Preferred Securities are then listed, quoted or traded; (iv) any Trust Securities Certificates not so surrendered for exchange shall be deemed to represent a Like Amount of Debentures, accruing interest at the rate provided for in the Debentures from the last Distribution Date on which a Distribution was made on such Trust Securities Certificates until such certificates are so surrendered (and until such certificates are so surrendered, no payments of interest or principal shall be made to Holders of Trust Securities Certificates with respect to such Debentures); and (v) all rights of Securityholders holding Trust Securities shall cease, except the right of such Securityholders to receive Debentures upon surrender of Trust Securities Certificates.

(d) In the event that, notwithstanding the other provisions of this Section 9.04, whether because of an order for dissolution entered by a court of competent jurisdiction or otherwise, distribution of the Debentures in the manner provided herein is determined by the

Property Trustee not to be practical, the Trust Property shall be converted to cash, and the Trust shall be dissolved, wound-up or terminated, by the Property Trustee in such manner as the Property Trustee determines. In such event, on the date of the dissolution, winding-up or other termination of the Trust, Securityholders shall be entitled to receive out of the assets of the Trust available for distribution to Securityholders, after satisfaction of liabilities to creditors of the Trust as provided by applicable law, an amount equal to the Liquidation Amount per Trust Security plus accumulated and unpaid Distributions thereon to the date of payment (such amount being the “Liquidation Distribution”). If, upon any such dissolution, winding-up or termination, the Liquidation Distribution can be paid only in part because the Trust has insufficient assets available to pay in full the aggregate Liquidation Distribution, then, subject to the next succeeding sentence, the amounts payable by the Trust on the Trust Securities shall be paid on a pro rata basis (based upon Liquidation Amounts). The Holder of the Common Securities shall be entitled to receive Liquidation Distributions upon any such dissolution, winding-up or termination pro rata (determined as aforesaid) with Holders of Preferred Securities, except that, if a Debenture Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Preferred Securities shall have a priority over the Common Securities.

Section 9.05 Mergers, Consolidations, Amalgamations or Replacements of the Trust.

The Trust may not merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, or be replaced by, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any Person, except pursuant to this Section 9.05. At the request of the Depositor, with the consent of the Administrative Trustees and without the consent of the Holders of the Preferred Securities, the Property Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, the Trust may merge with or into, consolidate, amalgamate, be replaced by or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to a trust organized as such under the laws of any state; provided, that (i) such successor entity either (a) expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Trust with respect to the Preferred Securities, the Property Trustee and the Delaware Trustee; or (b) subject to clause (vi), below substitutes for the Preferred Securities other securities having substantially the same terms as the Preferred Securities (the “Successor Securities”) so long as the Successor Securities rank the same as the Preferred Securities rank in priority with respect to distributions and payments upon liquidation, redemption and otherwise; (ii) the Depositor expressly appoints a trustee of such successor entity possessing substantially the same powers and duties as the Property Trustee as the holder of the Debentures; (iii) the Successor Securities are listed, quoted or traded, or any Successor Securities shall be listed, quoted or traded upon notification of issuance, in, on or by any national securities exchange or other organization in, on or by which the Preferred Securities are then listed, if any; (iv) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease and the terms of such Successor Securities do not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the holders of the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect; (v) such successor entity has a purpose substantially identical to that of the Trust; (vi) prior to such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, the Depositor has received an Opinion of Counsel (reasonably satisfactory to the Property Trustee) to the effect that (a) such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease does not adversely affect the rights, preferences and privileges of the Holders of the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Securities) in any material respect; and (b) following such merger, consolidation, amalgamation, replacement, conveyance, transfer or lease, neither the Trust nor

such successor entity shall be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; and (vii) the Depositor owns all of the common securities of such successor entity and guarantees the obligations of such successor entity under the Successor Securities at least to the extent provided by the Guarantee, the Debentures, this Trust Agreement and the Expense Agreement. For purposes of this Section 9.05, any such consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition as a result of which (a) the Company is not the surviving Person, and (b) the same Person is not both (i) the primary obligor in respect of the Debentures and (ii) the Guarantor under the Guarantee, shall be deemed to constitute a replacement of the Trust by a successor entity subject to this Section 9.05; provided further that, notwithstanding the foregoing, if upon the consummation of such a consolidation, merger, sale, conveyance, transfer or other disposition involving the Company, the parent company (if any) of the Company, or such parent company’s successor, is a bank holding company or financial holding company or comparably regulated financial institution, such parent company shall guarantee the obligations of the Trust and the Company (and any successor thereto) under the Preferred Securities (including any Successor Securities) at least to the extent provided by the Guarantee, the Debentures, the Trust Agreement and the Expense Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust shall not, except with the consent of holders of 100% in Liquidation Amount of the Preferred Securities, 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 other Person or permit any other Person to consolidate, amalgamate, merge with or into, or replace it if such consolidation, amalgamation, merger or replacement would cause the Trust or the successor entity to be classified as other than a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

The death or incapacity of any Person having an interest, beneficial or otherwise, in Trust Securities shall not operate to terminate this Trust Agreement, nor entitle the legal representatives or heirs of such Person or any Securityholder for such Person, to claim an accounting, take any action or bring any proceeding in any court for a partition or winding-up of the arrangements contemplated hereby, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

Section 10.02 Amendment.

(a) This Trust Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Trustees and the Depositor, without the consent of any Securityholders, (i) as provided in Section 8.11 with respect to acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee; (ii) to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision herein or therein which may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or therein, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Trust Agreement, that shall not be inconsistent with the other provisions of this Trust Agreement; or (iii) to modify, eliminate or add to any provisions of this Trust Agreement to such extent as shall be necessary to ensure that the Trust shall be classified for United States federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust at all times that any Trust Securities are outstanding or to ensure that the Trust shall not be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act; or (iv) to reduce or increase the Liquidation Amount per

Trust Security and simultaneously to correspondingly increase or decrease the number of Trust Securities issued and Outstanding solely for the purpose of maintaining the eligibility of the Preferred Securities for quotation or listing on any national securities exchange or other organization in, on or by which the Preferred Securities are then traded, quoted or listed (including, if applicable, The Nasdaq Global Select Market); provided, however, that in the case of clause (ii), such action shall not in the Opinion of Counsel (obtained at Depositor’s expense and reasonably satisfactory to the Property Trustee) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Securityholder, and provided further, that in the case of clause (iv) the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities Outstanding upon completion of any such reduction must be the same as the aggregate Liquidation Amount of the Trust Securities Outstanding immediately prior to such reduction or increase. Any amendments of this Trust Agreement shall become effective when notice thereof is given to the Securityholders (or in the case of an amendment pursuant to clause (iv), as of the date specified in the notice).

(b) Except as provided in Section 6.01(c) or Section 10.02(c) hereof, any provision of this Trust Agreement may be amended by the Trustees and the Depositor (i) with the consent of Trust Securityholders representing not less than a majority (based upon Liquidation Amounts) of the Trust Securities then Outstanding; and (ii) upon receipt by the Trustees of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Trustees in accordance with such amendment shall not affect the Trust’s status as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes or the Trust’s exemption from status of an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

(c) In addition to and notwithstanding any other provision in this Trust Agreement, without the consent of each affected Securityholder (such consent being obtained in accordance with Section 6.03 or 6.06 hereof), this Trust Agreement may not be amended to (i) change the amount or timing of any Distribution on the Trust Securities or otherwise adversely affect the amount of any Distribution required to be made in respect of the Trust Securities as of a specified date; or (ii) restrict the right of a Securityholder to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such date. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, without the unanimous consent of the Securityholders (such consent being obtained in accordance with Section 6.03 or 6.06 hereof), this paragraph (c) of this Section 10.02 may not be amended.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Trust Agreement, no Trustee shall enter into or consent to any amendment to this Trust Agreement which, in the Opinion of Counsel, would cause the Trust to fail or cease to qualify for the exemption from status of an investment company under the Investment Company Act or to fail or cease to be classified as a grantor trust for United States federal income tax purposes.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, without the consent of the Depositor, this Trust Agreement may not be amended in a manner which imposes any additional obligation on the Depositor.

(f) In the event that any amendment to this Trust Agreement is made, the Administrative Trustees shall promptly provide to the Depositor a copy of such amendment.

(g) Neither the Property Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be required to enter into any amendment to this Trust Agreement which affects its own rights, duties or immunities under this Trust Agreement. The Property Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel at Depositor’s expense and an Officers’ Certificate stating that any amendment to this Trust Agreement has been effected in compliance with this Trust Agreement.

Section 10.03 Separability.

Section 10.05 Payments Due on Non-Business Day.

If the date fixed for any payment on any Trust Security shall be a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment need not be made on such date but may be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day (and without any reduction of interest or any other payment in respect of any such acceleration), in each case with the same force and effect as though made on the date fixed for such payment, and no distribution shall accumulate thereon for the period after such date.
