ARTICLE ONE
Investment Debentures, Series II and
Certain Provisions Relating Thereto
Section 1-1. Terms of Investment Debentures, Series II.
There shall be hereby established a series of Debentures to be
designated "Investment Debentures, Series II." The aggregate principal amount of
Investment Debentures, Series II, at any one time Outstanding shall not be
limited. The initial Investment Debentures, Series II, shall
be issued in the maturities and denominations with proposed interest rates upon
the unpaid principal amounts thereof as follows:
Minimum Increments Over
Maturity Interest Rate Denomination Minimum
-------- ------------- ------------ ---------------
6 to 10 years 10% $ 100.00 $1.00

The maturities, interest rates, minimum denominations and increments over the

or may elect to allow interest to be compounded and paid as set forth in the
form of the Investment Debentures, Series II, in Section 1-2 hereof. The

principal of and interest on Investment Debentures, Series II will be made at
the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in Spokane,
Washington. All such payments shall be made in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts; provided, however, that payment of interest may be
made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Debenture Register. In the
event of the death of any registered owner of an Investment Debenture, Series
II, any party entitled to receive some or all of the proceeds of such Investment

The Debenture
This is a duly authorized Debenture of Metropolitan Mortgage &
Securities Co., Inc. ("Metropolitan"). This Debenture is issued under an
Indenture dated July 6, 1979 (the "Indenture") between Metropolitan and
Seattle-First National Bank as Trustee (the "Trustee"). The Indenture permits
Metropolitan to issue an unlimited amount of Debentures, the terms of which may
vary according to series. This Debenture is of the series stated above; that
series is limited in aggregate principal amount as stated in the Indenture (or
supplemental indentures). The Indenture (and supplemental indentures) contains
statements of the rights of the Debentureholders, Metropolitan and the Trustee
and provisions concerning authentication and delivery of the Debentures.
Definitions of certain terms used in this Debenture are also found in the
Indenture (and supplemental indentures).
Payment of Principal
For value received, Metropolitan promises to pay the principal amount
of this Debenture at the maturity date stated above. Payment will be made to the
Person to whom this Debenture is issued, or registered assigns.
Payment of Interest
Metropolitan promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Debenture from the issue date until the principal amount is paid or made
available for payment. Interest will be computed at the annual interest rate
stated above. Interest will be payable or compounded as stated above or as
otherwise elected by the Person entitled to payment of interest. Metropolitan
will pay interest to the Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more
Predecessor Debentures) is registered at the close of business on the Regular
Record Date for the payment of interest. The Regular Record Date is the 15th day
of the calendar month immediately preceding an Interest Payment Date.
Compounding of Interest
If the Person entitled to payment of interest so elects, Metropolitan
will compound interest rather than pay interest in installments. Interest will
be compounded on a semiannual basis at the interest rate stated above from the
Interest Payment Date immediately preceding receipt by Metropolitan of the
compounding election. Interest will be compounded from the issue date of the
Debenture if Metropolitan receives the compounding election prior to the first
Interest Payment Date. Interest will be compounded until the maturity date
stated above and will be paid on such date. Prior to Maturity, however,
Metropolitan will pay at the Debentureholder's request the interest accumulated
in the last two semiannual compounding periods before Metropolitan receives the
request, together with the interest accrued from the end of the last such
semiannual period. Interest compounded prior to the last two semiannual
compounding periods is payable only on the maturity date stated above.
Prepayment on Death
In the event of a Debentureholder's death, any Person entitled to
receive some or all of the proceeds of this Debenture may elect to have his or
her share of the principal and any unpaid
3
interest prepaid in full in five consecutive equal monthly installments.
Interest on the declining principal balance of that share will continue to
accrue at the interest rate stated above. Any request for prepayment must be
made in writing to Metropolitan. The request must be accompanied by the
Debenture and evidence, satisfactory to Metropolitan, of the Debentureholder's
death. Before Metropolitan prepays the Debenture, it may require additional
documents or other material it considers necessary to establish the Persons
entitled to receive some or all of the proceeds of the Debenture. Metropolitan
may also require proof of other facts relevant to its obligation to prepay the
Debenture in the event of death.
Miscellaneous
The provisions on the reverse are part of this Debenture.
This Debenture is not entitled to any benefit under the Indenture nor
is this Debenture valid or obligatory for any purpose unless the certificate of
authentication below has been executed by the Trustee by manual signature.
This Debenture is not insured by the United States government, the
State of Washington nor any agency thereof.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Metropolitan has caused this Debenture to be duly
executed under its corporate seal.

[FORM OF REVERSE OF INVESTMENT DEBENTURE, SERIES II]
Transfer and Exchange
Transfer and exchange of this Debenture are conditioned by certain
provisions in the Indenture. To effect a transfer, the Holder must surrender
this Debenture at Metropolitan's office or agency in Spokane, Washington. This
Debenture must be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of
transfer satisfactory to Metropolitan. Upon transfer, one or more new Debentures
of the same series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate
principal amount will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer, Metropolitan, the Trustee
or any of their agents may treat any Person in whose name this Debenture is
registered as the owner of this Debenture, regardless of notice to the contrary
or whether this Debenture might be overdue.
This Debenture is issuable only as a registered Debenture; it does not
bear coupons. As provided in the Indenture, this Debenture is exchangeable for
other Debentures of the same series of authorized denominations with the same
aggregate principal amount. To effect an exchange, the Holder must surrender
this Debenture at Metropolitan's office or agency in Spokane, Washington. The
Debenture must be duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of
exchange satisfactory to Metropolitan.
No service charge will be made for a transfer or exchange, but
Metropolitan may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any governmental
charge payable in connection with such transaction.
Amendment of the Indenture; Waiver of Rights
With certain exceptions, the Indenture may be amended, the obligations
and rights of Metropolitan may be modified and the rights of the
Debentureholders may be modified by Metropolitan at any time with the consent of
the Holders of 66-2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Debentures at the
time Outstanding. The Indenture allows the Holders of specified percentages in
aggregate principal amount of the Debentures of a particular series to waive
compliance by Metropolitan with certain Indenture provisions and to waive past
defaults and their consequences on behalf of all the Holders of Debentures of
that series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Debenture will be
binding upon that Holder. The consent or waiver will also be binding upon all
future Holders of this Debenture and of any Debenture issued upon the transfer
of, or in exchange for or in lieu of this Debenture, whether or not that consent
or waiver is noted upon the Debenture.
Failure to Pay Interest; Events of Default
If interest is not punctually paid or duly provided for, it shall cease
to be payable to the registered Holder of this Debenture on the applicable
Regular Record Date. Instead, the Trustee will fix a Special Record Date for
payment of the Defaulted Interest. The Trustee will give the Debentureholders
notice of the Special Record Date at least 10 days prior to the Special Record
Date. The Person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more Predecessor
Debentures) is registered at the close of business on the Special Record Date
will be entitled to payment of the
5
Defaulted Interest. If the Debentures are listed on a securities exchange,
however, the Defaulted Interest may be paid at any time and in any lawful manner
consistent with the requirements of the exchange.
If an Event of Default occurs, the principal of all the Debentures may
be declared due and payable as provided in the Indenture.
Form of Payment
Payment of principal and interest will be made at the office or agency
of Metropolitan maintained for that purpose in Spokane, Washington. Payment will
be made in coin or currency of the United States of America that is legal tender
for payment of public and private debts at the time of payment. At
Metropolitan's option, however, payment of interest may be made by check mailed
to the Person entitled to the interest at that Person's address as it appears in
the Debenture Register.
Business Days
Whenever any Interest Payment Date, the Stated Maturity of this
Debenture or any date on which any Defaulted Interest is proposed to be paid is
not a Business Day, the appropriate payment or compounding of interest or
principal may be made on the next succeeding Business Day without accrual of
additional interest.
Certain Definitions
Metropolitan is a Washington corporation. The term "Metropolitan"
includes any successor corporation under the Indenture. The term "Trustee"
includes any successor trustee under the Indenture.
