The terms U.S. Registrar, U.S. Paying Agent, London Paying Agent, London Issuing Agent, European Registrar and European Transfer Agent shall include any additional or successor agents appointed in such capacities by the Issuer.

This Note is also one of the Notes issued pursuant to an Offering Circular dated April 30, 2010, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, for the offer and sale of up to U.S.$75,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior and subordinated bank notes at any one time outstanding with maturities of 7 days or more from their respective dates of issue.

country of such Specified Currency, and payments in euro will be made by credit or transfer to a euro account (or any other account to which euro may be credited or transferred) specified by the payee.

Unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement, this Note will not be subject to a sinking fund.

SECTION 2. Interest Provisions.

(a) Fixed Rate Notes. If this Note is designated as a “Fixed Rate Note” on the face hereof, the Issuer will pay interest on the principal amount specified on the face of this Note (as adjusted in accordance with Schedule 1 hereto) on each Interest Payment Date specified in the Pricing Supplement and at Maturity, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, except as provided on the face hereof, until payment of such principal sum has been made or duly provided for. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if this Note has a Maturity Date of less than one year from the Original Issue Date, interest on this Note will be paid only at Maturity.

Payments of interest hereon will include interest accrued from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest on this Note (or any predecessor Note) has been paid or duly provided for (or, unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Original Issue Date) to but excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be.

Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if this Note has an original maturity less than one year and is payable in U.S. dollars, interest (including payments for partial periods) will be computed and paid on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed divided by 360. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if this Note has an original maturity of one year or more and is payable in U.S. dollars, interest (including payments for partial periods) will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if this Note is denominated in a Specified Currency other than U.S. dollars, interest will be computed on the basis of the Actual/Actual (ISMA) Fixed Day Count Convention.

“Actual/Actual (ISMA) Fixed Day Count Convention” means:

(a)

in the case of fixed-rate notes where the number of days in the relevant period from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, from and including the interest commencement date, which unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement shall be the Original Issue Date) to, but excluding, the relevant payment date (referred to as the “accrual period”) is equal to or shorter than the determination period (as defined below) during which the accrual period ends, the number of days in the accrual period divided by the product of (1) the number of days in that determination period and (2) the number of determination periods that would occur in one calendar year, assuming interest was to be payable in respect of the whole of that year; or

A1-11

(b) in the case of fixed-rate notes where the accrual period is longer than the determination period during which the accrual period ends, the
sum of:

(1) the number of days in that accrual period falling in the determination period in which the accrual period begins divided by the product of (x) the number of days in such determination period and (y) the number of determination periods that would occur in one calendar year, assuming interest was to be payable in respect of the whole of that year; and

(2) the number of days in that accrual period falling in the next determination period divided by the product of (x) the number of days in such determination period and (y) the number of determination periods that would occur in one calendar year, assuming interest was to be payable in respect of the whole of that year.

“Determination period” means the period from and including a determination date to but excluding the next determination date (including, where either the interest commencement date or the final Interest Payment Date is not a determination date, the period commencing on the first determination date prior to, and ending on the first determination date falling after, such date).

“Determination date” means each date specified in the Pricing Supplement or, if none is specified, each Interest Payment Date.

Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if any Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date of this Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, this Note will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payments were due, and no additional interest will accrue in respect of the amount so payable for the period from and after such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be.

(b) Floating Rate Notes. If this Note is designated as a “Floating Rate Note” on face hereof, the Issuer will pay interest on the principal amount specified on the face of this Note (as adjusted in accordance with Schedule 1 hereto) on each Interest Payment Date specified in the Pricing Supplement and at Maturity, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date specified on the face hereof, unless the Original Issue Date occurs between a Regular Record Date (as defined below) and the next Interest Payment Date, in which case interest shall be payable commencing on the Interest Payment Date following the next Regular Record Date, at a rate per annum determined in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Pricing Supplement, until payment of such principal sum has been made or duly provided for. If this Note has a Maturity Date of less than one year from the Original Issue Date, interest on this Note will be paid only at Maturity.

Payments of interest hereon will include interest accrued from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest on this Note (or any predecessor Note) has been paid or duly provided for (or, unless otherwise provided in the Pricing Supplement, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Original Issue Date) to but excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be (each such period, an “Interest Period”).

A1-12

As set forth in the Pricing Supplement, this Note may have either or both of the following: (i) a maximum numerical interest rate limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any Interest Period (“Maximum Interest Rate”); or (ii) a minimum numerical interest rate limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period (“Minimum Interest Rate”); provided, however, that the interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

The Base Rate (as defined herein) with respect to this Note may be (i) the federal funds rate, (ii) the London interbank offered rate, or “LIBOR,” (iii) the Eurozone interbank offered rate, or “EURIBOR,” (iv) the prime rate, (v) the treasury rate or (v) such other rate as is described in the Pricing Supplement.

Except as described below, this Note will bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the appropriate interest rate basis (the “Base Rate”) and Index Maturity, each as specified in the Pricing Supplement, (i) plus or minus the Spread, if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement and/or (ii) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement. The interest rate in effect during an Interest Period will be the rate determined by the Calculation Agent specified in the Pricing Supplement on the “calculation date” by reference to the Interest Determination Date (as described below).

If “ISDA Rate” is specified in the Pricing Supplement, the rate of interest on this Note for each Interest Period will be the relevant ISDA Rate plus or minus the margin, if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement. Unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement, “ISDA Rate” means, with respect to any Interest Period, the rate equal to the Floating Rate that would be determined by the Calculation Agent pursuant to an interest rate swap transaction if the Calculation Agent were acting as Calculation Agent for such swap transaction in accordance with the terms of an agreement in the form of any ISDA Master Agreement published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (including any Annexes thereto, the “ISDA Agreement”) and evidenced by a Confirmation (as defined in the ISDA Agreement) incorporating the 2006 ISDA definitions, as amended, updated, supplemented or replaced as at the issue date of the first tranche of bank notes of the relevant series (the “2006 ISDA Definitions”) published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. and under which: (i) the Floating Rate Option is as specified in the Pricing Supplement; (ii) the Designated Maturity is the period specified in the Pricing Supplement; and (iii) the relevant Reset Date is either (a) if the applicable Floating Rate Option is based on LIBOR or EURIBOR for a currency, the first day of such interest period or (b) in any other case, as specified in the Pricing Supplement. Where “ISDA Rate” is specified, interest will be payable on each Interest Payment Date specified in the Pricing Supplement or, if no express Interest Payment Dates are specified, on each date which falls at the end of the number of months or other period specified as the interest period in the Pricing Supplement after the preceding Interest Payment Date (or after the Original Issue Date, in the case of the first such date). As used in this paragraph, “Floating Rate,” “Calculation Agent,” “Floating Rate Option,” “Designated Maturity” and “Reset Date” have the meanings ascribed to those terms in the 2006 ISDA Definitions.

The “calculation date” pertaining to any Interest Determination Date will be the date by which the Calculation Agent specified in the Pricing Supplement computes the amount of

A1-13

interest owed on this Note for the related Interest Period. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, the “calculation date” will be the earlier of (a) the tenth calendar day after the related Interest Determination Date or, if that date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day; or (b) the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity Date or the date of redemption or the date of prepayment, as the case may be.

The interest rate in effect on each day shall be (a) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date pertaining to such Interest Reset Date or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date pertaining to the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date, provided that (i) the interest rate in effect from the Original Issue Date to the initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate specified in the Pricing Supplement, and (ii) the interest rate in effect for the 10 calendar days immediately prior to the Maturity Date shall be the rate in effect on the 10th calendar day preceding such Maturity Date. Unless otherwise specified herein or in the Pricing Supplement, if any Interest Reset Date specified in the Pricing Supplement (including the Initial Interest Reset Date, as specified in the Pricing Supplement) falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Interest Reset Date will be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that, unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, in the case of a LIBOR note or a EURIBOR note, if the next Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, the Interest Reset Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. The Interest Reset Dates are subject to adjustment as described below.

Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement: (i) the “Interest Determination Date” with respect to any Note that has as its Base Rate the federal funds rate or the prime rate will be the Business Day immediately preceding the related Interest Reset Date; (ii) the “Interest Determination Date” with respect to any Note that has LIBOR as its Base Rate will be the second London Banking Day preceding the related Interest Reset Date, unless the Index Currency specified in the Pricing Supplement is Pounds Sterling, in which case the Interest Determination Date will be the Interest Reset Date; (iii) the “Interest Determination Date” with respect to any Note that has as its Base Rate the treasury rate will be the day of the week in which the related Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury bills of the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement normally would be auctioned; provided, however, that if an auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding the related Interest Reset Date, the related “Interest Determination Date” shall be such preceding Friday; and provided, further, that if an auction is held on any Interest Reset Date then the Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day following such auction.

For a Note whose interest rate is determined by reference to two or more Base Rates, unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, the “Interest Determination Date” shall be the most recent Business Day that is at least two Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Reset Date for the Note on which each Base Rate is applicable.

A1-14

falls on a date that is not a Business Day, and the next Business Day is in the next calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. In each such case, unless specified otherwise in the applicable Pricing Supplement, except for the Interest Payment Date falling on the Maturity Date, the Interest Periods and the Interest Reset Dates will be adjusted for non-Business Days accordingly to calculate the amount of interest payable on this Note. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if the Maturity Date of this Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, this Note will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payments were due, and no additional interest will accrue in respect of the amount so payable for the period from and after the Maturity Date.

Accrued interest on this Note is calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the Note by an accrued interest factor. The accrued interest factor is the sum of the interest factors calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated. Unless otherwise indicated in the Pricing Supplement, the daily interest factor will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months if the Day Count Convention specified in the Pricing Supplement is “30/360” for the period specified thereunder, or on the basis of the actual number of days in the Interest Period divided by 360 if the Day Count Convention specified in the Pricing Supplement is “Actual/360” for the period specified thereunder, or on the basis of the actual number of days in the Interest Period divided by 365, or in the case of an Interest Payment Date falling in a leap year, 366, if the Day Count Convention specified in the Pricing Supplement is “Actual/Actual” for the period specified thereunder. If no Day Count Convention is specified in the Pricing Supplement, the daily interest factor will be computed and interest will be paid (including payments for partial periods) as follows: (i) for Notes that have as a Base Rate the federal funds rate, LIBOR, EURIBOR, the prime rate, or any other rate other than the treasury rate, as if “Actual/360” had been specified in the Pricing Supplement; and (ii) for Notes that have the treasury rate as a Base Rate, as if “Actual/Actual” had been specified in the Pricing Supplement.

All amounts used in or resulting from any calculation on this Note will be rounded to the nearest cent, if the Specified Currency is U.S. dollars, or to the nearest corresponding hundredth of a unit, if the Specified Currency is other than U.S. dollars, with one-half cent or one-half of a corresponding hundredth of a unit or more being rounded upward. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, all percentages resulting from any calculation are rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward. For example, 9.876545% (or .09876545) will be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655).

Notwithstanding the calculations determined as specified below, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement.

The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the procedures described below on or before each calculation date. At the request of the registered holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide to such holder the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective as of the next Interest Reset Date.

X0-00

Xxxxxxxxxxxxx xx XXXXX. LIBOR for any Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the offered rates for deposits in the relevant Index Currency having the Index Maturity described in the Pricing Supplement, commencing on the related Interest Reset Date, as the rates appear on the designated LIBOR page in the Pricing Supplement as of 11:00 A.M., London time, on that Interest Determination Date, if at least two offered rates appear on the designated LIBOR page, except that, if the designated LIBOR page only provides for a single rate, that single rate will be used.

If fewer than two of the rates described above appears on that page or no rate appears on any page on which only one rate normally appears, then the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as follows:

	•		The Calculation Agent will select four major banks in the London interbank market, after consultation with the Issuer. On the Interest Determination Date, those four banks will be requested to provide their offered quotations for deposits in the relevant Index Currency having an Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on the Interest Reset Date to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time.

	•		If at least two quotations are provided, the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as the arithmetic mean of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than two quotations are provided, the Calculation Agent will select, after consultation with the Issuer, three major banks in New York City. On the Interest Determination Date, those three banks will be requested to provide their offered quotations for loans in the relevant Index Currency having an Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on the Interest Reset Date to leading European banks at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York time. The Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as the average of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than three New York City banks selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting rates, LIBOR for that interest period will remain LIBOR then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

Determination of EURIBOR. EURIBOR means, for any Interest Determination Date, the rate for deposits in euro as sponsored, calculated, and published jointly by the European Banking Federation and ACI—The Financial Market Association, or any company established by the joint sponsors for purposes of compiling and publishing those rates, having the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement, as that rate appears on the display on Reuters, or any successor service, on page EURIBOR01 or any other page as may replace such page (“Reuters Page EURIBOR01”), as of 11:00 A.M., Brussels time.

The following procedures will be followed if EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above:

•

If no offered rate appears on Reuters Page EURIBOR01 on an Interest Determination Date at approximately 11:00 A.M., Brussels time, then the Calculation Agent, after

A1-16

consultation with the Issuer, will select four major banks in the Eurozone interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate at which deposits in euro having the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement are offered to prime banks in the Eurozone interbank market, and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1,000,000, that is representative of a single transaction in euro in that market at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic average of those quotations.

•

If fewer than two quotations are provided, then the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, will select four major banks in the Eurozone interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate offered by them, at approximately 11:00 A.M., Brussels time, on the Interest Determination Date, for loans in euro to prime banks in the Eurozone interbank market for a period of time equivalent to the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on that Interest Reset Date and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1,000,000, that is representative of a single transaction in euro in that market at that time. If at least three quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic average of those quotations.

•

If three quotations are not provided, EURIBOR for that Interest Determination Date will be equal to EURIBOR for the immediately preceding interest period.

“Eurozone” means the region comprising Member States of the European Union that have adopted the euro as their single currency in accordance with the Treaty establishing European Community, as amended.

Determination of Treasury Rate. The “treasury rate” for any Interest Determination Date is the rate set at the auction of direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury bills”) having the Index Maturity described in the Pricing Supplement, as specified under the caption “Investment Rate” on the display on Reuters, or any successor service, on page USAUCTION 10/11 or any other page as may replace such page.

The following procedures will be followed if the treasury rate cannot be determined as described above:

	•		If the rate is not displayed on Reuters by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate of Treasury bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the bond equivalent yield, as defined below, of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury bills as announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held, the treasury rate

A1-17

will be the bond equivalent yield of the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date of the applicable Treasury bills as published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date of the applicable Treasury bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the bond equivalent yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, of three primary U.S. government securities dealers, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, for the issue of Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the particular Index Maturity.

	•		If the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as described in the paragraph immediately above, the treasury rate will be the treasury rate in effect on the particular Interest Determination Date.

The bond equivalent will be calculated using the following formula:


Bond Equivalent Yield =	D x N	x 100

	360 — (D x M)

where “D” refers to the applicable annual rate for Treasury bills quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the applicable interest period.

“H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Federal Reserve Board.

“H.15 Daily Update” means the daily update of H.15(519), available through the website of the Federal Reserve Board at xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxxxx/x00/xxxxxx, or any successor site or publication.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate. The “federal funds rate” for any Interest Determination Date will be as follows:

•

A1-18

		(“Reuters Page FEDFUNDS1”), or if such rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date or does not appear on Reuters Page FEDFUNDS1, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date, as published in H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source for the purposes of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If the alternate rate described in the preceding sentence is not published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the federal funds rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds, quoted prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the business day following that Interest Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer; provided, however, if fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described above, the federal funds rate will be the federal funds rate then in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

•		if “Federal Funds Open Rate” is specified in the Pricing Supplement, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date for U.S. dollar federal funds transactions among member of the U.S. Federal Reserve System arranged by federal funds brokers on such day, under the heading “Federal Funds” for the applicable Index Maturity and opposite the caption “Open” and displayed on Reuters, or any successor service, on page 5 or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service (“Reuters Page 5”), or if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page 5 by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date displayed on FFPREBON Index page on Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”), which is the Fed Funds Opening Rate as reported by Prebon Yamane (or a successor) on Bloomberg. If the alternate rate described in the preceding sentence is not displayed on FFPREBON Index page on Bloomberg, or any other recognized electronic source for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the federal funds rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds, quoted prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer; provided, however, if fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described above, the federal funds rate will be the federal funds rate then in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

•		if “Federal Funds Target Rate” is specified in the Pricing Supplement, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date for U.S. dollar federal funds displayed on the FDTR Index page on Bloomberg. If such rate does not appear on the FDTR Index page on Bloomberg by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date, the federal funds rate for such Interest Determination Date will be the rate for that day appearing on Reuters, or any successor service, on page

A1-19

USFFTARGET= or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service (“Reuters Page USFFTARGET=”). If such rate does not appear on the FDTR Index page on Bloomberg or is not displayed on Reuters Page USFFTARGET= by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the federal funds rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds, quoted prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer; provided, however, if fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described above, the federal funds rate will be the federal funds rate then in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

Determination of Prime Rate. The “prime rate” for any Interest Determination Date is the prime rate or base lending rate on that date, as published in H.15(519) prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, under the heading “Bank Prime Loan.”

The following procedures will be followed if the prime rate cannot be determined as described above:

	•		If the rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the prime rate will be the rate as published in H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Bank Prime Loan.”

	•		If the alternative rate described above is not published in H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the prime rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1, as defined below, as that bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as in effect as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date.

	•		If fewer than four rates appear on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1 for that Interest Determination Date, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, then the Calculation Agent will determine the prime rate to be the average of the prime rates or base lending rates furnished in New York City by three substitute banks or trust companies (all organized under the laws of the United States or any of its states and having total equity capital of at least U.S.$500,000,000) selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer.

	•		If the banks selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as described above, the prime rate will remain the prime rate then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

“Reuters screen US PRIME 1” means the display designated as page “US PRIME 1” on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or any other page as may replace the US PRIME 1

A1-20

page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major U.S. banks).

(c) Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Notes. If this Note is designated as a “Floating Rate/Fixed Rate Note” on the face hereof, this Note may bear interest at a fixed rate for a specified period and at a floating rate for a specified period, in each case calculated as set forth in (a) and (b) above, as applicable, and in the Pricing Supplement.

SECTION 3. Amortizing Notes. If this Note is designated as an “Amortizing Note” on the face hereof, the Issuer will make payments combining principal and interest on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the table included in the Pricing Supplement. If this Note is an Amortizing Note, payments made hereon will be applied first to interest due and payable on each such payment date and then to the reduction of the Outstanding Face Amount. The term “Outstanding Face Amount” means, at any time, the amount of unpaid principal hereof at such time.

SECTION 4. Optional Redemption. If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, this Note may be redeemed at the option of the Issuer on any date on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement (the “Redemption Date”). IF NO INITIAL REDEMPTION DATE IS SET FORTH IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE REDEEMED AT THE OPTION OF THE ISSUER PRIOR TO THE STATED MATURITY DATE, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW IN THE EVENT THAT ANY ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS (AS DEFINED BELOW) ARE REQUIRED TO BE PAID BY THE ISSUER WITH RESPECT TO THIS NOTE. If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, on and after the Initial Redemption Date, if any, this Note may be redeemed at any time in whole or from time to time in part at the option of the Issuer at the applicable Redemption Price (as defined below), together with accrued and unpaid interest hereon payable at the applicable rate or rates borne by this Note to, but excluding, the Redemption Date, on notice given not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days (unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement) prior to the Redemption Date; provided, however, that in the event of redemption of this Note in part only, the unredeemed portion hereof shall be at least the minimum Authorized Denomination specified in the Pricing Supplement, or if no such Authorized Denomination is so specified, U.S. $250,000 or its equivalent in the Specified Currency. In the event of redemption of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unredeemed portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the registered holder hereof upon the surrender of this Note or, where applicable, an appropriate notation will be made on Schedule 1 attached hereto. Unless otherwise specified above, if less than all of the Notes with like tenor and terms are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the applicable Registrar by such method as such Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate. If this Note is redeemable at the option of the Issuer, then if so specified in the Pricing Supplement, the “Redemption Price” initially shall be the Initial Redemption Percentage specified in the Pricing Supplement of the principal amount of this Note to be redeemed and shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement, of the principal amount to be redeemed until the Redemption Price is 100% of such principal amount.

A1-21

From and after any redemption date, if monies for the redemption of this Note (or portion hereof) shall have been made available for redemption on such redemption date, this Note (or such portion hereof) shall cease to bear interest and the holder’s only right with respect to this Note (or such portion hereof) shall be to receive payment of the principal amount of the Note being redeemed (or, if this is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified in the Pricing Supplement, the amortized face amount hereof) and, if appropriate, all unpaid interest accrued to such redemption date.

To the extent then required under or pursuant to applicable laws or regulations (including, without limitation, capital regulations), if this Note is a Subordinated Note, as indicated on the face hereof, it may not be redeemed at the option of the Issuer prior to the Stated Maturity Date without the prior written approval of the United States Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”) or any other bank supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the Issuer and requiring such approval.

SECTION 5. Optional Repayment. If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, this Note will be repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date at the option of the registered holder on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement. IF NO OPTIONAL REPAYMENT DATES ARE SET FORTH IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SO REPAID AT THE OPTION OF THE HOLDER HEREOF PRIOR TO THE STATED MATURITY DATE. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, on any Optional Repayment Date, this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part at the option of the holder hereof at a repayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, together with accrued and unpaid interest hereon payable at the applicable rate or rates borne by this Note to, but excluding, the date of repayment; provided, however, that, in the event of repayment of this Note in part only, the unrepaid portion hereof shall be at least the minimum Authorized Denomination specified in the Pricing Supplement, or if no such Authorized Denomination is so specified, U.S. $250,000 or its equivalent in the Specified Currency. For this Note to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the holder hereof on any Optional Repayment Date, this Note must be received, with the form attached hereto entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” duly completed, by the applicable Paying Agent (as appropriate in accordance with such attached form), at the address set forth on such form or at such other address which the Issuer shall from time to time notify the holders of the Notes not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to such holder’s Optional Repayment Date. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unrepaid portion hereof shall be issued in the name of the registered holder hereof upon the surrender hereof or, where applicable, an appropriate notation will be made on Schedule 1 attached hereto. Exercise of such repayment option by the holder hereof shall be irrevocable.

From and after any Optional Repayment Date, if monies for the repayment of this Note (or portion hereof) shall have been made available for repayment on such Optional Repayment Date, this Note (or such portion hereof) shall cease to bear interest and the holder’s only right with respect to this Note (or such portion hereof) shall be to receive payment of the principal amount of the Note being repaid (or, if this is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified in the Pricing Supplement, the amortized face amount hereof) and, if appropriate, all unpaid interest accrued to such redemption date.

A1-22

To the extent then required under or pursuant to applicable laws or regulations (including, without limitation, capital regulations), if this Note is a Subordinated Note, as indicated on the face hereof, it may not be repaid at the option of the holder prior to the Stated Maturity Date without the prior written approval of the OCC or any other bank supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the Issuer and requiring such approval.

SECTION 6. Additional Amounts. All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to this Note will be made without withholding or deduction at source for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, fees, duties, assessments, or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, except to the extent such withholding or deduction is required by (i) the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (ii) an official position regarding the application, administration, interpretation, or enforcement of any such laws, regulations, or rulings (including, without limitation, a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a taxing authority in the United States or any political subdivision thereof). If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, if a withholding or deduction at source is required, the Bank will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay to the beneficial owner of this Note that is a “non-U.S. person” (as defined below) additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) to ensure that every net payment on this Note will not be less, due to the payment of U.S. withholding tax, than the amount then otherwise due and payable. For this purpose, a “net payment” on this Note means a payment by the Issuer or any Paying Agent, including payment of principal and interest, after deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge of the United States (other than a territory or possession). These Additional Amounts will constitute additional interest on this Note. For this purpose, “U.S. withholding tax” means a withholding tax of the United States, other than a territory or possession.

However, notwithstanding the Issuer’s obligation, if so specified in the Pricing Supplement, to pay Additional Amounts, the Issuer will not be required to pay Additional Amounts in any of the circumstances described in items (1) through (14) below, unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement.

(1) Additional Amounts will not be payable if a payment on this Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of this Note:

	•		having a relationship with the United States as a citizen, resident, or otherwise;

Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, any Note redeemed for tax reasons will be redeemed at 100% of its principal amount (or, in the case of an Original Issue Discount Note, the amortized face amount hereof determined as of the date of redemption), together with any interest accrued up to, but excluding, the redemption date.

From and after any redemption date, if monies for the redemption of this Note shall have been made available for redemption on such redemption date, this Note shall cease to bear interest and the holder’s only right with respect to this Note shall be to receive payment of the principal amount of the Note (or, if this is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified in the Pricing Supplement, the amortized face amount hereof) and, if appropriate, all unpaid interest accrued to such redemption date.

To the extent then required under or pursuant to applicable laws or regulations (including, without limitation, capital regulations), if this Note is a Subordinated Note, as indicated on the face hereof, it may not be redeemed prior to the Stated Maturity Date without the prior written approval of the OCC or any other bank supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the Issuer and requiring such approval.

In the event of any such proceedings, after payment in full of all sums owing such prior obligations, the holder of this Subordinated Note, together with any obligations of the Issuer ranking on a parity with this Subordinated Note, shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the Issuer the unpaid principal hereof and any unpaid premium (if any), interest, and other amounts payable (if any) before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property, or otherwise, shall be made on account of any capital stock or any obligations of the Issuer ranking junior to this Subordinated Note.

Upon the issuance of any substituted Note, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover all expenses and reasonable charges connected with the preparation and delivery of a new Note. If any Note which has matured or has been redeemed or repaid or is about to mature or to be redeemed or repaid shall become mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Note) upon compliance by the holder with the provisions of this paragraph.

[EXTENDIBLE NOTE RIDER]

The Issuer and the purchaser of this Note have agreed that this Note is an Extendible Note which initially matures on the Stated Maturity Date shown on the face hereof. Unless otherwise provided in the Pricing Supplement, at each Extension Date, as specified in the Pricing Supplement, the Maturity of this Note automatically will be extended to the corresponding New Maturity Date, as specified in the Pricing Supplement, until the Final Maturity Date specified in the Pricing Supplement, unless the registered holder of this Note elects to terminate the automatic extension of the Maturity of this Note or any portion hereof and delivers a completed “Extension Termination Notice” to the applicable Paying Agent (or any duly appointed paying agent) not less than 15 nor more than 30 calendar days prior to the applicable Extension Date. The “Extension Termination Notice” may specify that the automatic extension of Maturity of this Note is terminated with respect to all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Note so long as the principal amount of the Note remaining outstanding after repayment is in at least an Authorized Denomination as specified in the Pricing Supplement, or if no Authorized Denomination is so specified, U.S. $250,000 or its equivalent in the applicable Specified Currency, unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement. Upon timely delivery of such Extension Termination Notice, the term of the principal amount of this Note subject to such notice will be deemed automatically to mature on the Stated Maturity Date or the then applicable New Maturity Date, as the case may be. The remaining principal balance of such Note, if any, will be deemed to automatically be extended to the corresponding New Maturity Date but in no circumstances may such Maturity be extended beyond the Final Maturity Date set forth below. An election to terminate the automatic extension of the Maturity hereof shall be irrevocable and

binding on each holder hereof. Notwithstanding any such extension, the interest rate applicable to this Note will continue to be calculated as set forth in this Note.

[EXTENSION OF MATURITY NOTE RIDER]

The Issuer and the purchaser of this Note have agreed that this Note is an Extension of Maturity Note, whereby the Issuer has the option to extend the maturity of this Note for one or more whole year periods, as specified in the Pricing Supplement (each, an “Extension Period”), up to but not beyond the Final Maturity Date specified in the Pricing Supplement, under the terms of this Note as supplemented by this Extension of Maturity Note Rider.

Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, the following provisions will apply to an Extension of Maturity Note: The Issuer may exercise its option with respect hereto by delivery to the applicable Paying Agent a notice of such exercise at least 45, but not more than 60, calendar days prior to the Stated Maturity Date originally in effect with respect hereto or, if the Stated Maturity Date has already been extended, prior to the maturity date then in effect (each, an “Extended Maturity Date”). After such receipt and not later than 40 calendar days prior to the Stated Maturity Date or an Extended Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an “Existing Maturity Date”), the applicable Paying Agent (or any duly appointed paying agent) will mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder hereof a notice (the “Extension Notice”) relating to such extension period (the “Extension Period”) setting forth (i) the election of the Issuer to extend the Maturity hereof, (ii) the new Extended Maturity Date, (iii) the interest rate applicable to the Extension Period (which interest rate may be higher during the Extension Period), and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the Extension Period, including the date or dates on which, the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Extension Period. Upon the mailing by the applicable Paying Agent (or any duly appointed paying agent) of an Extension Notice to the registered holder hereof, the maturity shall be extended automatically as set forth in the Extension Notice, and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 calendar days prior to the Existing Maturity Date hereof (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately succeeding Business Day), the Issuer, at its option, may revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by mailing or causing the applicable Paying Agent to mail notice of such higher interest rate, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder hereof. Such notice shall be irrevocable. Thereafter, this Note will bear such higher interest rate for the Extension Period.

If the Issuer elects to extend the maturity hereof, the registered holder hereof will have the option to elect repayment hereof in whole or in part by the Issuer on the Existing Maturity Date then in effect at a price equal to the principal amount hereof plus any accrued and unpaid interest to such date. In order for this Note to be so repaid on the Existing Maturity Date, the Issuer must receive, at least 15 days but not more than 30 calendar days prior to the Existing Maturity Date then in effect with respect hereto: (i) this Note with the form “Option to Elect Repayment” below duly completed, or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange, or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States, setting forth the name of the registered holder hereof, the principal amount hereof to be repaid, the certificate number,

A1-43

or a description of the tenor and terms hereof, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby, and a guarantee that this Note, together with the duly completed form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” attached hereto, will be received by the applicable Paying Agent not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or letter; provided, however, that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or letter shall only be effective if this Note and duly completed form are received by the applicable Paying Agent by such fifth Business Day. Such option may be exercised by the registered holder hereof for less than the aggregate principal amount hereof then outstanding, provided that the principal amount hereof remaining outstanding after repayment is at least an Authorized Denomination as specified in the Pricing Supplement, or if no such Authorized Denomination is so specified, U.S. $250,000 or its equivalent in the applicable Specified Currency, unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement.

This Global Note is a Temporary Global Note in bearer form without interest coupons and is one of a duly authorized issue of senior or subordinated Notes of the Issuer issued and to be issued in one or more series under the Global Agency Agreement dated as of July 25, 2007, as supplemented by a Supplement to Global Agency Agreement dated as of December 19, 2008 and a Supplement to Global Agency Agreement dated as of April 30, 2010, as the same may be further supplemented and amended from time to time (as supplemented and amended, the “Agency Agreement”) among the Issuer, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as U.S. Registrar (the “U.S. Registrar”) and U.S. Paying Agent (the “U.S. Paying Agent”), Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as London Paying Agent (the “London Paying Agent,” and together with the U.S. Paying Agent, the “Paying Agents” and each, a “Paying Agent”) and as London Issuing Agent (the “London Issuing Agent”), and Deutsche Bank Luxembourg S.A., as European Registrar (the “European Registrar,” and together with the U.S. Registrar, the “Registrars” and each, a “Registrar”) and European Transfer Agent (the “European Transfer Agent,” and together with the Registrars, the Paying Agents and the London Issuing Agent, the “Agents” and each, an “Agent”), to which Agency Agreement reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Issuer and the Agents and the holders of the Notes and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms U.S. Registrar, U.S. Paying Agent, London Paying Agent, London Issuing Agent, European Registrar and European Transfer Agent shall include any additional or successor agents appointed in such capacities by the Issuer.

The Issuer and any Paying Agent may (except as otherwise required by law) deem and treat the bearer of this Note as the absolute owner hereof (whether or not overdue and notwithstanding any notice of ownership or writing thereon or notice of any previous loss or theft hereof) for all purposes but, in the case of this Global Note, without prejudice to the provisions set out in the next paragraph.

So long as this Global Note is held on behalf of Euroclear Bank S.A. N.V. (“Euroclear”) or Clearstream Banking, société anonyme (“Clearstream, Luxembourg”), each person who is shown in the records of Euroclear or of Clearstream, Luxembourg as the holder of a particular nominal amount of Notes represented by this Global Note (any certificate or other document

B-5

issued by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the nominal amount of Notes standing on the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, except in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the London Paying Agent, and any other Agent as the holder of such nominal amount of such Notes for all purposes, except with respect to the payment of principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable on the Notes, the bearer of this Global Note shall be treated by the Issuer, the London Paying Agent and any other Agent as the holder of such Notes in accordance with and subject to the terms of this Global Note (the expressions “noteholder” and “holder of Notes” and related expressions shall be construed accordingly). Notes which are represented by this Global Note will be transferable only in accordance with the rules and procedures for the time being of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be.

On any redemption, repayment or purchase and cancellation of any of the Notes represented by this Global Note, the Issuer shall procure that details of such redemption, repayment or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) shall be entered in the relevant column in Part II, III or IV of Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 hereto recording any such redemption, repayment or purchase and cancellation (as the case may be) and shall be signed by or on behalf of the Issuer. Upon any such redemption, repayment or purchase and cancellation, the principal amount of such Notes represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed, repurchased or purchased and cancelled.

Prior to the Exchange Date (as defined below), all payments (if any) on this Global Note will only be made to the bearer hereof to the extent that there is presented to the London Paying Agent by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, a certificate, substantially in the form set out in Exhibit J to the Agency Agreement, to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person entitled to a particular principal amount of the Notes (as shown by its records) a certificate in or substantially in the form of the certificate as set out in Exhibit K to the Agency Agreement. Payments due in respect of Notes for the time being represented by this Global Note shall be made to the bearer of this Global Note and each payment so made will discharge the Issuer’s obligations in respect thereof. Any failure to make the entries referred to in the paragraph above shall not affect such discharge. After the Exchange Date, the bearer of this Global Note will not be entitled to receive any payment of interest hereon.

On or after the Exchange Date (as defined below), this Global Note may be exchanged in whole or in part (free of charge) for either (a) a Permanent Global Note which is in or substantially in the form set out in Exhibit C of the Agency Agreement (together with the Pricing Supplement attached to it), upon notice being given by a relevant clearing system acting on the instructions of any holder of an interest in this Global Note or (b) under certain limited circumstances described in Section 8 of the Agency Agreement, security printed Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Talons and/or Receipts in the form set out in Exhibits D, E, F and G, respectively, of the Agency Agreement (on the basis that all the appropriate details have been included on the face of such Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Receipts and/or Talons and the terms of the Pricing Supplement have been incorporated in such Definitive Notes). The “Exchange Date” for this Global Note will normally be the 40^th day after the later of the date on which the Issuer receives the proceeds of the sale of the Global Note and the closing date for the Global Note. However, if the Issuer, a selling agent or any distributor, as defined in

B-6

U.S. Treasury Regulation Sec. 1-163(c)(2)(i)(D)(4), holds a Note represented by this Global Note as part of an unsold allotment or subscription for more than 40 days after the later of the date on which the Issuer receives the proceeds of the sale of the Global Note and the closing date for the Global Note, the Exchange Date with respect to such Note will be the day after the date on which the Issuer, selling agent or distributor sells such Note.

This Global Note may be exchanged by the bearer hereof on any day (other than a Saturday or Sunday) on which banks are open for business in London. The Issuer shall procure that Definitive Notes and interests in the Permanent Global Note shall be so issued and delivered in exchange for only that portion of this Global Note in respect of which there shall have been presented to the London Issuing Agent by Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg a certificate, substantially in the form set out in Exhibit J to the Agency Agreement, to the effect that it has received from or in respect of a person entitled to a beneficial interest in a particular principal amount of the Notes (as shown by its records) a certificate from such person in or substantially in the form of the certificate set out in Exhibit K to the Agency Agreement, unless such certificate has already been given in accordance with the above provisions. The aggregate principal amount of interests in a Permanent Global Note issued upon exchange of this Global Note subject to the terms hereof, will be equal to the aggregate principal amount of this Global Note submitted by the bearer hereof for exchange (to the extent that such principal amount does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of this Global Note).

Any such exchanges will be made upon presentation of this Global Note by the bearer hereof at the offices of the London Issuing Agent (or at such other place outside the United States and its possessions as the London Issuing Agent may agree). On an exchange of the whole of this Global Note, this Global Note shall be surrendered to the London Issuing Agent. On an exchange of only part of this Global Note, the Issuer shall procure that details of such exchange shall be entered in Schedule 2 hereto and the relevant space in Schedule 2 hereto recording such exchange and shall be signed by or on behalf of the Issuer and the principal amount of this Global Note and the Notes represented by this Global Note shall be reduced by the principal amount so exchanged.

If, following the issue of a Permanent Global Note in exchange for some of the Notes represented by this Global Note, further Notes presented by this Global Note are to be exchanged for interests in a Permanent Global Note, such exchange may be effected, subject as provided herein, without the issue of a new Permanent Global Note, by the Issuer or its agent endorsing Schedule 2 of the Permanent Global Note by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Permanent Global Note which would otherwise have been issued on such exchange.

Until the exchange of the whole of this Global Note as aforesaid, the bearer hereof shall in all respects (except as otherwise provided herein) be entitled to the same benefits as if he were the bearer of Definitive Notes and (if applicable) Coupons, Talons and Receipts in the form set out in Exhibits D, E, F and G, respectively, to the Agency Agreement.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Temporary Global Note, the Issuer irrevocably agrees, for the benefit of such noteholders and their successors and assigns, that each noteholder or its successors or assigns may file without the consent and to the

B-7

exclusion of the bearer hereof, any claim, take any action or institute any proceeding to enforce directly against the Issuer, the obligation of the Issuer hereunder to pay any amount due or to become due in respect of each Note represented by this Temporary Global Note which is credited to such noteholder’s securities account with Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg without production of this Temporary Global Note; provided that the bearer hereof shall not theretofore have filed a claim, taken action or instituted proceedings to enforce the same in respect of such Note.

Until exchanged in full for the Permanent Global Note, this Temporary Global Note in all respects shall be entitled to the same benefits under, and subject to the same terms and conditions of, the Agency Agreement as the Permanent Global Note authenticated and delivered hereunder, except that neither the holder hereof nor the beneficial owners of this Temporary Global Note shall be entitled to receive payment of interest hereon.

Subject to any fiscal or other laws and regulations applicable thereto in the place of payment, payments in a Specified Currency other than euro will be made by transfer to an account in the relevant Specified Currency maintained by the payee with, or by a check in such Specified Currency drawn on, a bank in the principal financial center of the country of such Specified Currency, and payments in euro will be made by credit or transfer to a euro account (or any other account to which euro may be credited or transferred) specified by the payee; provided, however, that, in either case, a check or a credit or transfer, as applicable, may not be delivered to an address in, and an amount may not be transferred to an account at a bank located in, the United States or any of its possessions by any office or agency of the Issuer or any Paying Agent.

If at the time of payment the Specified Currency is not legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, the Issuer will make payments in (a) such other coin or currency of the country that issued such Specified Currency or (b) if the Specified Currency is the euro, the successor currency under applicable law, in each case as at the time of such payment is legal tender for payment of debts. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, and except as described below, generally holders are not entitled to receive payments in U.S. dollars of an amount due in another Specified Currency.

Except as provided below, payments of principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on this Global Note will be made outside the United States and its possessions against presentation or surrender, as the case may be, of this Global Note at the office of the London Paying Agent maintained for that purpose, subject to the requirements for certification provided herein. The London Paying Agent will record on this Global Note each payment made against presentation or surrender of the Note, distinguishing between any payment of principal and premium, if any, and any payment of interest, and such record shall be prima facie evidence that the payment has been made.

B-8

possessions if: (A) the Issuer has appointed paying agents with specified offices outside the United States and its possessions with the reasonable expectation that such paying agents will be able to make payment of the full amount of principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable on the bank notes in the manner provided above when due in U.S. dollars at such specified offices; (B) payment of the full amount due of such principal, premium, if any, interest, or any other amounts payable, at all such specified offices outside the United States and its possessions is illegal or effectively precluded by exchange controls or other similar restrictions on the full payment or receipt of principal and interest in U.S. dollars; and (C) such payment is then permitted under U.S. law without involving, in the Issuer’s opinion, adverse tax consequences for the Issuer.

The bearer of this Global Note shall be the only person entitled to receive payments with respect hereto, and the Issuer shall be discharged by payment to, or to the order of, the bearer of this Global Note with respect to each amount so paid. Each person in the records of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg as the beneficial owner of a particular nominal amount of this Global Note must look solely to Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, for its share of each payment so made by the Issuer to, or to the order of, the bearer of this Global Note. No person other than the bearer hereof shall have any claim against the Issuer with respect to payments due hereon.

If the date for payment of any amount with respect to this Note is not a Payment Business Day (as defined below) in the place of presentation, the holder of this Note shall not be entitled to payment of the amount due until the next succeeding Payment Business Day. Except as provided otherwise herein for floating-rate notes, the holder shall not be entitled to further interest or other payment with respect to such delay. For these purposes, unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, “Payment Business Day” means any Business Day which is also a day on which commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle payments and are open for general business (including dealings in foreign exchanges and foreign currency deposits) in the relevant place of presentation (and in the case of payment in euro in the place where the euro account specified by the payee is located) or any additional financial center specified in the Pricing Supplement.

Unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement, this Note will not be subject to a sinking fund.

This Note will become void unless presented for payment within a period of two years from the date on which such payment first becomes due (the “Relevant Date”). However, if the full amount of the money payable has not been duly received by the London Paying Agent or other applicable paying agent on or prior to the Relevant Date, then the Relevant Date shall mean the date on which, after the full amount of such money has been so received, notice to that effect is duly given to the noteholder.

latter shall control. References herein to “this Note,” “hereof,” “herein” and comparable terms shall include the Pricing Supplement attached hereto.

This Temporary Global Note shall not become valid or obligatory for any purpose until the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been duly signed by or on behalf of the London Issuing Agent acting in accordance with the Agency Agreement.

BANK OF AMERICA, N.A.

(TEMPORARY GLOBAL BANK NOTE)

SECTION 1. General. This Note is one of the Notes issued pursuant to an Offering Circular dated April 30, 2010, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, for the offer and sale of up to U.S.$75,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior and subordinated bank notes at any one time outstanding with maturities of 7 days or more from their respective dates of issue. The Notes may bear different dates, mature at different times, bear interest at different rates and vary in such other ways as are provided in the Agency Agreement, and the aggregate principal amount of bank notes to be offered under the program may be increased from time to time.

The Issuer has initially appointed Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, to act as London Paying Agent in respect of this Note. This Note may be presented or surrendered for payment, and notices, designations or requests in respect of payments with respect to this Note may be served, at the office or agency of the London Paying Agent.

SECTION 2. Interest Provisions.

(a) Fixed Rate Notes. If this Note is designated as a “Fixed Rate Note” on the face hereof, the Issuer will pay interest on the principal amount specified on the face of this Note (as adjusted in accordance with Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 hereto) on each Interest Payment Date specified in the Pricing Supplement and at Maturity, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, except as provided on the face hereof, until payment of such principal sum has been made or duly provided for. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if this Note has a Maturity Date of less than one year from the Original Issue Date, interest on this Note will be paid only at Maturity.

B-14

“Actual/Actual (ISMA) Fixed Day Count Convention” means:

	(a)		in the case of fixed-rate notes where the number of days in the relevant period from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, from and including the interest commencement date, which unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement shall be the Original Issue Date) to, but excluding, the relevant payment date (referred to as the “accrual period”) is equal to or shorter than the determination period (as defined below) during which the accrual period ends, the number of days in the accrual period divided by the product of (1) the number of days in that determination period and (2) the number of determination periods that would occur in one calendar year, assuming interest was to be payable in respect of the whole of that year; or

	(b)		in the case of fixed-rate notes where the accrual period is longer than the determination period during which the accrual period ends, the sum of:

“Determination date” means each date specified in the Pricing Supplement or, if none is specified, each Interest Payment Date.

B-15

Date succeeding the Original Issue Date specified on the face hereof, unless the Original Issue Date occurs between a Regular Record Date (as defined below) and the next Interest Payment Date, in which case interest shall be payable commencing on the Interest Payment Date following the next Regular Record Date, at a rate per annum determined in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Pricing Supplement, until payment of such principal sum has been made or duly provided for. If this Note has a Maturity Date of less than one year from the Original Issue Date, interest on this Note will be paid only at Maturity.

Payments of interest hereon will include interest accrued from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest on this Note (or any predecessor Note) has been paid or duly provided for (or, unless otherwise provided in the Pricing Supplement, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including the Original Issue Date) to but excluding the relevant Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be (each such period, an “Interest Period”).

B-16

which: (i) the Floating Rate Option is as specified in the Pricing Supplement; (ii) the Designated Maturity is the period specified in the Pricing Supplement; and (iii) the relevant Reset Date is either (a) if the applicable Floating Rate Option is based on LIBOR or EURIBOR for a currency, the first day of such interest period or (b) in any other case, as specified in the Pricing Supplement. Where “ISDA Rate” is specified, interest will be payable on each Interest Payment Date specified in the Pricing Supplement or, if no express Interest Payment Dates are specified, on each date which falls at the end of the number of months or other period specified as the interest period in the Pricing Supplement after the preceding Interest Payment Date (or after the Original Issue Date, in the case of the first such date). As used in this paragraph, “Floating Rate,” “Calculation Agent,” “Floating Rate Option,” “Designated Maturity” and “Reset Date” have the meanings ascribed to those terms in the 2006 ISDA Definitions.

The “calculation date” pertaining to any Interest Determination Date will be the date by which the Calculation Agent specified in the Pricing Supplement computes the amount of interest owed on this Note for the related Interest Period. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, the “calculation date” will be the earlier of (a) the tenth calendar day after the related Interest Determination Date or, if that date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day; or (b) the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Interest Payment Date or the Stated Maturity Date or the date of redemption or the date of prepayment, as the case may be.

B-17

an auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding the related Interest Reset Date, the related “Interest Determination Date” shall be such preceding Friday; and provided, further, that if an auction is held on any Interest Reset Date then the Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day following such auction.

Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of interest will be made on the next succeeding Business Day. However, unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if this Note has as its Base Rate LIBOR or EURIBOR, as described below, if an Interest Payment Date falls on a date that is not a Business Day, and the next Business Day is in the next calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding Business Day. In each such case, unless specified otherwise in the applicable Pricing Supplement, except for the Interest Payment Date falling on the Maturity Date, the Interest Periods and the Interest Reset Dates will be adjusted for non-Business Days accordingly to calculate the amount of interest payable on this Note. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if the Maturity Date of this Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the related payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, this Note will be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date such payments were due, and no additional interest will accrue in respect of the amount so payable for the period from and after the Maturity Date.

B-18

the Pricing Supplement, all percentages resulting from any calculation are rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward. For example, 9.876545% (or .09876545) will be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655).

The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the procedures described below on or before each calculation date. At the request of the holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide to such holder the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective as of the next Interest Reset Date.

Determination of LIBOR. LIBOR for any Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the offered rates for deposits in the relevant Index Currency having the Index Maturity described in the Pricing Supplement, commencing on the related Interest Reset Date, as the rates appear on the designated LIBOR page in the Pricing Supplement as of 11:00 A.M., London time, on that Interest Determination Date, if at least two offered rates appear on the designated LIBOR page, except that, if the designated LIBOR page only provides for a single rate, that single rate will be used.

If fewer than two of the rates described above appears on that page or no rate appears on any page on which only one rate normally appears, then the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as follows:

	•		The Calculation Agent will select four major banks in the London interbank market, after consultation with the Issuer. On the Interest Determination Date, those four banks will be requested to provide their offered quotations for deposits in the relevant Index Currency having an Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on the Interest Reset Date to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time.

	•		If at least two quotations are provided, the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as the arithmetic mean of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than two quotations are provided, the Calculation Agent will select, after consultation with the Issuer, three major banks in New York City. On the Interest Determination Date, those three banks will be requested to provide their offered quotations for loans in the relevant Index Currency having an Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on the Interest Reset Date to leading European banks at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York time. The Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as the average of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than three New York City banks selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting rates, LIBOR for that interest period will remain LIBOR then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

B-19

The following procedures will be followed if EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above:

	•		If no offered rate appears on Reuters Page EURIBOR01 on an Interest Determination Date at approximately 11:00 A.M., Brussels time, then the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, will select four major banks in the Eurozone interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate at which deposits in euro having the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement are offered to prime banks in the Eurozone interbank market, and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1,000,000, that is representative of a single transaction in euro in that market at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic average of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than two quotations are provided, then the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, will select four major banks in the Eurozone interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate offered by them, at approximately 11:00 A.M., Brussels time, on the Interest Determination Date, for loans in euro to prime banks in the Eurozone interbank market for a period of time equivalent to the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on that Interest Reset Date and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1,000,000, that is representative of a single transaction in euro in that market at that time. If at least three quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic average of those quotations.

	•		If three quotations are not provided, EURIBOR for that Interest Determination Date will be equal to EURIBOR for the immediately preceding interest period.

The following procedures will be followed if the treasury rate cannot be determined as described above:

B-20

	•		If the rate is not displayed on Reuters by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate of Treasury bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the bond equivalent yield, as defined below, of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury bills as announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held, the treasury rate will be the bond equivalent yield of the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date of the applicable Treasury bills as published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date of the applicable Treasury bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the bond equivalent yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, of three primary U.S. government securities dealers, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, for the issue of Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the particular Index Maturity.

	•		If the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as described in the paragraph immediately above, the treasury rate will be the treasury rate in effect on the particular Interest Determination Date.

The bond equivalent will be calculated using the following formula:


Bond Equivalent Yield =	D x N	x 100

	360 – (D x M)

“H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Federal Reserve Board.

B-21

Determination of Federal Funds Rate. The “federal funds rate” for any Interest Determination Date will be as follows:

•

if “Federal Funds (Effective) Rate” is specified in the Pricing Supplement, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date for U.S. dollar federal funds, as published in H.15(519) under the heading “Federal Funds (Effective)” and displayed on Reuters, or any successor service, on page FEDFUNDS1 or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service (“Reuters Page FEDFUNDS1”), or if such rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date or does not appear on Reuters Page FEDFUNDS1, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date, as published in H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source for the purposes of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).” If the alternate rate described in the preceding sentence is not published in H.15 Daily Update, or other recognized electronic source for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the federal funds rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds, quoted prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the business day following that Interest Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer; provided, however, if fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described above, the federal funds rate will be the federal funds rate then in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

•

if “Federal Funds Open Rate” is specified in the Pricing Supplement, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date for U.S. dollar federal funds transactions among member of the U.S. Federal Reserve System arranged by federal funds brokers on such day, under the heading “Federal Funds” for the applicable Index Maturity and opposite the caption “Open” and displayed on Reuters, or any successor service, on page 5 or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service (“Reuters Page 5”), or if such rate does not appear on Reuters Page 5 by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date displayed on FFPREBON Index page on Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”), which is the Fed Funds Opening Rate as reported by Prebon Yamane (or a successor) on Bloomberg. If the alternate rate described in the preceding sentence is not displayed on FFPREBON Index page on Bloomberg, or any other recognized electronic source for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the federal funds rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds, quoted prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest

B-22

Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer; provided, however, if fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described above, the federal funds rate will be the federal funds rate then in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

•

if “Federal Funds Target Rate” is specified in the Pricing Supplement, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date for U.S. dollar federal funds displayed on the FDTR Index page on Bloomberg. If such rate does not appear on the FDTR Index page on Bloomberg by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date, the federal funds rate for such Interest Determination Date will be the rate for that day appearing on Reuters, or any successor service, on page USFFTARGET= or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service (“Reuters Page USFFTARGET=”). If such rate does not appear on the FDTR Index page on Bloomberg or is not displayed on Reuters Page USFFTARGET= by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the federal funds rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates for the last transaction in overnight U.S. dollar federal funds, quoted prior to 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, by each of three leading brokers of U.S. dollar federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer; provided, however, if fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described above, the federal funds rate will be the federal funds rate then in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

The following procedures will be followed if the prime rate cannot be determined as described above:

	•		If the rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the prime rate will be the rate as published in H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Bank Prime Loan.”

	•		If the alternative rate described above is not published in H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the prime rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1, as defined below, as that bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as in effect as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date.

•

If fewer than four rates appear on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1 for that Interest Determination Date, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, then the Calculation Agent will determine the prime rate to be the average of the prime rates or base lending rates

B-23

furnished in New York City by three substitute banks or trust companies (all organized under the laws of the United States or any of its states and having total equity capital of at least U.S.$500,000,000) selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer.

•

If the banks selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as described above, the prime rate will remain the prime rate then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

“Reuters screen US PRIME 1” means the display designated as page “US PRIME 1” on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or any other page as may replace the US PRIME 1 page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major U.S. banks).

B-24

above, if less than all of the Notes with like tenor and terms are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the applicable Registrar by such method as such Registrar shall deem fair and appropriate. If this Note is redeemable at the option of the Issuer, then if so specified in the Pricing Supplement, the “Redemption Price” initially shall be the Initial Redemption Percentage specified in the Pricing Supplement of the principal amount of this Note to be redeemed and shall decline at each anniversary of the Initial Redemption Date by the Annual Redemption Percentage Reduction, if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement, of the principal amount to be redeemed until the Redemption Price is 100% of such principal amount.

SECTION 5. Optional Repayment. If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, this Note will be repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date at the option of the bearer on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement. IF NO OPTIONAL REPAYMENT DATES ARE SET FORTH IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SO REPAID AT THE OPTION OF THE BEARER HEREOF PRIOR TO THE STATED MATURITY DATE. Unless otherwise provided in the Pricing Supplement, on any Optional Repayment Date, this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part at the option of the bearer hereof at a repayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, together with accrued and unpaid interest hereon payable at the applicable rate or rates borne by this Note to, but excluding, the date of repayment; provided, however, that, in the event of repayment of this Note in part only, the unrepaid portion hereof shall be at least the minimum Authorized Denomination specified in the Pricing Supplement, or if no such Authorized Denomination is so specified, €50,000 or its equivalent in the Specified Currency. For this Note to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the bearer hereof on any Optional Repayment Date, this Note must be presented, with the form attached hereto entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” duly completed, at the offices of the London Paying Agent not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the Optional Repayment Date. Upon such proper presentment, this Note will be repaid on the Optional Repayment Date, subject to the provisions hereof governing payments. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unrepaid portion hereof shall be issued to the bearer hereof upon the surrender hereof or, where applicable, an appropriate notation will be made on Schedule 1 attached hereto. Exercise of such repayment option by the holder bearer shall be irrevocable.

B-25

From and after any Optional Repayment Date, if monies for the repayment of this Note (or portion hereof) shall have been made available for repayment on such Optional Repayment Date, this Note (or such portion hereof) shall cease to bear interest and the bearer’s only right with respect to this Note (or such portion hereof) shall be to receive payment of the principal amount of the Note being repaid (or, if this is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified in the Pricing Supplement, the amortized face amount hereof) and, if appropriate, all unpaid interest accrued to such Optional Repayment Date.

To the extent then required under or pursuant to applicable laws or regulations (including, without limitation, capital regulations), if this Note is a Subordinated Note, as indicated on the face hereof, it may not be repaid at the option of the holder prior to the Stated Maturity Date without the prior written approval of the OCC or any other bank supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the Issuer and requiring such approval.

SECTION 6. Additional Amounts. All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to this Note will be made without withholding or deduction at source for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, fees, duties, assessments, or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, except to the extent such withholding or deduction is required by (i) the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (ii) an official position regarding the application, administration, interpretation, or enforcement of any such laws, regulations, or rulings (including, without limitation, a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a taxing authority in the United States or any political subdivision thereof). If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, if a withholding or deduction at source is required, the Bank will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay to the beneficial owner of this Note that is a “non-U.S. person” (as defined below) additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) to ensure that every net payment on this Note will not be less, due to the payment of U.S. withholding tax, than the amount then otherwise due and payable. For this purpose, a “net payment” on this Note means a payment by the Issuer or any Paying Agent, including payment of principal and interest, after deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge of the United States (other than a territory or possession). These Additional Amounts will constitute additional interest on this Note. For this purpose, “U.S. withholding tax” means a withholding tax of the United States, other than a territory or possession.

To the extent then required under or pursuant to applicable laws or regulations (including, without limitation, capital regulations), if this Note is a Subordinated Note, as indicated on the face hereof, it may not be redeemed prior to the Stated Maturity Date without the prior written approval of the OCC or any other bank supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the Issuer and requiring such approval.

SECTION 8. Special Tax Redemption. If the Issuer determines that any payment made outside the United States by the Issuer or any Paying Agent in respect of this Note under any present or future laws or regulations of the United States, would be subject to any certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirement of any kind the effect of which is the disclosure to the Issuer, any Paying Agent, or any governmental authority of the nationality, residence, or identity of a beneficial owner of this Note who is a non-U.S. person (as defined above) (other than a requirement (1) that would not be applicable to a payment by the Issuer or

B-30

any Paying Agent (x) directly to the beneficial owner, or (y) to a custodian, nominee, or other agent of the beneficial owner, (2) that can be satisfied by such custodian, nominee, or other agent certifying to the effect that the beneficial owner is a non-U.S. person, provided that, in any case referred to in clause (1)(y) or (2), payment by the custodian, nominee, or agent to the beneficial owner is not otherwise subject to any such requirement, or (3) that would not be applicable to a payment by at least one Paying Agent), the Issuer shall at its option either: (i) redeem this Note in whole but not in part, at any time (in the case of bank notes other than floating-rate Notes) or on any Interest Payment Date (in the case of floating-rate Notes), at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of this Note (or, in the case of an Original Issue Discount Note as specified in the Pricing Supplement, the amortized face amount of this Note determined as of the date of redemption), together with, if appropriate, interest accrued to but excluding the date of redemption; or (ii) if the conditions of the next succeeding paragraph are satisfied, pay the Additional Amounts specified in such paragraph.

The Issuer shall make its determination as soon as practicable and promptly publish notice thereof (the “determination notice”) stating the effective date of such certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirement, whether it will redeem the Note or pay the Additional Amounts specified in the next succeeding paragraph, and (if applicable) the last date by which the redemption of this Note must take place, as provided in the next succeeding sentence. If this Note is to be redeemed as described above, that redemption shall take place on such date, not later than one year after publication of the determination notice, as the Issuer shall elect by notice to the London Paying Agent at least 45 calendar days before the redemption date. Notice of such redemption of the Notes will be given to the noteholders not more than 60 nor less than 30 calendar days prior to the redemption date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall not redeem the bank notes if it shall subsequently determine not less than 30 calendar days prior to the redemption date, that subsequent payments on the Notes would not be subject to any such certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirement, in which case the Issuer shall give prompt notice of its subsequent determination, and any earlier redemption notice shall be revoked and of no further effect.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if and so long as the certification, documentation, information, or other reporting requirements referred to in the preceding paragraph would be fully satisfied by payment of a backup withholding tax or similar charge, the Issuer may elect to pay such Additional Amounts as may be necessary so that every net payment made outside the United States following the effective date of that requirement by the Issuer or any Paying Agent in respect of this Note of which the beneficial owner is a non-U.S. person (but without any requirement that the nationality, residence, or identity, other than status as a non-U.S. person, of such beneficial owner be disclosed to the Issuer, any paying agent, or any governmental authority), after deduction or withholding for or on account of that backup withholding tax or similar charge (other than a backup withholding tax or similar charge that (1) would not be applicable in the circumstances referred to in the parenthetical clause of the first sentence of the preceding paragraph or (2) is imposed as a result of the presentation of this Note for payment more than 15 calendar days after the date on which that payment became due and payable or on which payment thereof was duly provided for, whichever occurred later), will not be less than the amount provided for in this Note to be then due and payable. If the Issuer elects to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall have the right to redeem this Note in whole, but not in part, at any time (in the case of bank notes other than floating-rate

B-31

Notes) or on any Interest Payment Date (in the case of floating-rate Notes), subject to the provisions of the last two sentences of the immediately preceding paragraph. If the Issuer elects to pay Additional Amounts pursuant to this paragraph and the condition specified in the first sentence of this paragraph should no longer be satisfied, then the Issuer shall redeem this Note pursuant to the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph.

To the extent then required under or pursuant to applicable laws or regulations (including, without limitation, capital regulations), if this Note is a Subordinated Note, as indicated on the face hereof, it may not be redeemed prior to the Stated Maturity Date without the prior written approval of the OCC or any other bank supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the Issuer and requiring such approval.

SECTION 9. Modification and Waivers. The Agency Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer thereunder. In addition, the terms and conditions of this Note may be modified, amended or supplemented by the Issuer, without the consent of the holder hereof: (i) to evidence succession of another party to the Issuer, and such party’s assumption of the Issuer’s obligations under this Note, upon the occurrence of a merger or consolidation, or transfer, sale or lease of assets as described below in Section 11; (ii) to add additional covenants, restrictions or conditions for the protection of the holder hereof; (iii) to relax or eliminate the restrictions on payment of principal and interest in respect hereof in the United States, provided that such payment is permitted by U.S. tax laws and regulations then in effect and provided that no adverse tax consequences would result to the holder of this Note; (iv) to cure ambiguities in this Note, or correct defects or inconsistencies in the provisions hereof; (v) to reflect the replacement of any Agent, or the assumption, by the Issuer or any substitute Agent, of some or all of any such Agent’s responsibilities under the Agency Agreement; (vi) to evidence the replacement or change of address of the depository or clearing system noted hereon; (vii) in the case of a Note that is extendible, subject to extension at the option of the Issuer, amortizing or indexed as provided in this Note, or upon prepayment or redemption of the Note, to reduce the principal amount of the Note to reflect the payment, prepayment or redemption of a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Note; (viii) in the case of a Note that is extendible, subject to extension at the option of the Issuer, amortizing or indexed as provided in this Note, to reflect any change in the Stated Maturity Date of the Note in accordance with the terms hereof; (ix) to reflect the issuance in exchange herefor, in accordance with the terms hereof, of one or more definitive Notes; or (x) to permit further issuances of bank notes in accordance with the terms of the distribution agreement among the Issuer and the selling agents party thereto.

Any instrument given by or on behalf of the holder of this Note in connection with any consent to such modification, amendment or waiver shall be irrevocable once given and shall be conclusive and binding on all subsequent holders of this Note. Any modifications, amendments or waiver to the Agency Agreement or the provisions of this Note made in accordance with the terms of the Agency Agreement or the terms hereof, as applicable, shall be conclusive and binding on all holders of Notes, whether or not notation of such modifications, amendments or waivers is made upon this Note.

Any action by the bearer of this Note shall bind all future bearers of this Note and of any Note issued in exchange or substitution hereof or in place hereof, in respect of anything done or permitted by the Issuer or by the Paying Agents in pursuance of such action.

Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any agreement modifying, amending or supplementing this Note may bear a notation in a form approved by the Issuer as to any matter provided for in such modification, amendment or supplement to the Agency Agreement or the Notes. New Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Issuer, to any provisions contained in any such modification, amendment or supplement may be prepared by the Issuer, authenticated by the London Issuing Agent and delivered in exchange for this Note. Notes are deemed to be “outstanding” as of any date of determination if, as of any date of determination, they have been authenticated and delivered, except (i) those which have been redeemed in full in accordance with their terms and the Agency Agreement; (ii) those with respect to which the redemption date in accordance with their terms has occurred and the redemption monies therefor (including any premium and all interest (if any) accrued thereon to the redemption date and any interest (if any) payable after such date) have been duly paid to or deposited to the account of the London Paying Agent as provided in the Agency Agreement (and, where appropriate, notice has been given to the holder of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof and of the Agency Agreement; (iii) those which have been canceled or delivered to the applicable Agent for cancellation; or (iv) those mutilated or defaced Notes which have been surrendered in exchange for replacement Notes in accordance with their terms.

SECTION 11. Successor to Issuer. The Issuer may not consolidate or merge with or into any other person, or convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety to any person, unless (i) the surviving entity in such consolidation or merger, or the person that acquires by conveyance or transfer, or that leases, the properties and assets of the Issuer substantially as an entirety, shall be a bank, corporation, limited liability company or partnership

In the event of any such proceedings, after payment in full of all sums owing such prior obligations, the holder of this Subordinated Note, together with any obligations of the Issuer ranking on a parity with this Subordinated Note, shall be entitled to be paid from the remaining assets of the Issuer the unpaid principal hereof and any unpaid premium (if any), interest, and other amounts payable (if any) before any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, property, or otherwise, shall be made on account of any capital stock or any obligations of the Issuer ranking junior to this Subordinated Note.

SECTION 18. Mutilated, Defaced, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes. In case this Note shall at any time become mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen, and this Note or evidence of the loss, theft or destruction hereof satisfactory to the Issuer and the London Issuing Agent and such other documents or proof as may be required by the Issuer and the applicable Registrar shall be delivered to the London Issuing Agent, the London Issuing Agent shall issue a new Note of like tenor and principal amount, having a serial number not contemporaneously outstanding, in exchange and substitution for the mutilated or defaced Note or in lieu of the Note destroyed, lost or stolen but, in the case of any destroyed, lost or stolen Note, only upon receipt of evidence satisfactory to the Issuer and the London Issuing Agent that this Note was destroyed, stolen or lost, and, if required, upon receipt of indemnity satisfactory to the Issuer and the applicable Registrar. Upon the issuance of any substituted Note, the Issuer may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover all expenses and reasonable charges connected with the preparation and delivery of a new Note. If any Note which has matured or has been redeemed or repaid or is about to mature or to be redeemed or repaid shall become mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen, the Issuer may, instead of issuing a substitute Note, pay or authorize the payment of the same (without surrender thereof except in the case of a mutilated or defaced Note) upon compliance by the holder with the provisions of this paragraph.

SECTION 19. Miscellaneous. No recourse shall be had for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on, this Note for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, against any shareholder, employee, agent, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any successor organization, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor organization, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

SECTION 2. Interest Provisions.

(a) Fixed Rate Notes. If this Note is designated as a “Fixed Rate Note” on the face hereof, the Issuer will pay interest on the principal amount specified on the face of this Note (as adjusted in accordance with Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 hereto) on each Interest Payment Date specified in the Pricing Supplement and at Maturity, commencing on the first Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, except as provided on the face hereof, until payment of such principal sum has been made or duly provided for. Unless otherwise specified in the Pricing Supplement, if this Note has a Maturity Date of less than one year from the Original Issue Date, interest on this Note will be paid only at Maturity.

C-12

“Actual/Actual (ISMA) Fixed Day Count Convention” means:

	(a)		in the case of fixed-rate notes where the number of days in the relevant period from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date (or, if none, from and including the interest commencement date, which unless specified otherwise in the Pricing Supplement shall be the Original Issue Date) to, but excluding, the relevant payment date (referred to as the “accrual period”) is equal to or shorter than the determination period (as defined below) during which the accrual period ends, the number of days in the accrual period divided by the product of (1) the number of days in that determination period and (2) the number of determination periods that would occur in one calendar year, assuming interest was to be payable in respect of the whole of that year; or

	(b)		in the case of fixed-rate notes where the accrual period is longer than the determination period during which the accrual period ends, the sum of:

“Determination date” means each date specified in the Pricing Supplement or, if none is specified, each Interest Payment Date.

C-13

C-16

If fewer than two of the rates described above appears on that page or no rate appears on any page on which only one rate normally appears, then the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as follows:

	•		The Calculation Agent will select four major banks in the London interbank market, after consultation with the Issuer. On the Interest Determination Date, those four banks will be requested to provide their offered quotations for deposits in the relevant Index Currency having an Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on the Interest Reset Date to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time.

	•		If at least two quotations are provided, the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as the arithmetic mean of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than two quotations are provided, the Calculation Agent will select, after consultation with the Issuer, three major banks in New York City. On the Interest Determination Date, those three banks will be requested to provide their offered quotations for loans in the relevant Index Currency having an Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on the Interest Reset Date to leading European banks at approximately 11:00 A.M., New York time. The Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as the average of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than three New York City banks selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting rates, LIBOR for that interest period will remain LIBOR then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

C-17

The following procedures will be followed if EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above:

	•		If no offered rate appears on Reuters Page EURIBOR01 on an Interest Determination Date at approximately 11:00 A.M., Brussels time, then the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, will select four major banks in the Eurozone interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate at which deposits in euro having the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement are offered to prime banks in the Eurozone interbank market, and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1,000,000, that is representative of a single transaction in euro in that market at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic average of those quotations.

	•		If fewer than two quotations are provided, then the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, will select four major banks in the Eurozone interbank market to provide a quotation of the rate offered by them, at approximately 11:00 A.M., Brussels time, on the Interest Determination Date, for loans in euro to prime banks in the Eurozone interbank market for a period of time equivalent to the Index Maturity specified in the Pricing Supplement commencing on that Interest Reset Date and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of €1,000,000, that is representative of a single transaction in euro in that market at that time. If at least three quotations are provided, EURIBOR will be the arithmetic average of those quotations.

	•		If three quotations are not provided, EURIBOR for that Interest Determination Date will be equal to EURIBOR for the immediately preceding interest period.

The following procedures will be followed if the treasury rate cannot be determined as described above:

C-18

	•		If the rate is not displayed on Reuters by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate of Treasury bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Auction High.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the bond equivalent yield, as defined below, of the auction rate of the applicable Treasury bills as announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury.

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not announced by the U.S. Department of the Treasury, or if the auction is not held, the treasury rate will be the bond equivalent yield of the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date of the applicable Treasury bills as published in H.15(519) under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date of the applicable Treasury bills as published in H.15 Daily Update, or another recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “U.S. Government Securities/Treasury Bills/Secondary Market.”

	•		If the alternative rate described in the paragraph immediately above is not published by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, the treasury rate will be the rate on the particular Interest Determination Date calculated by the Calculation Agent as the bond equivalent yield of the arithmetic mean of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date, of three primary U.S. government securities dealers, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Issuer, for the issue of Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the particular Index Maturity.

	•		If the dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as described in the paragraph immediately above, the treasury rate will be the treasury rate in effect on the particular Interest Determination Date.

The bond equivalent will be calculated using the following formula:


Bond Equivalent Yield =	D x N	x 100

	360 – (D x M)

“H.15(519)” means the weekly statistical release designated as H.15(519), or any successor publication, published by the Federal Reserve Board.

Determination of Federal Funds Rate. The “federal funds rate” for any Interest Determination Date will be as follows:

•

C-20

•

The following procedures will be followed if the prime rate cannot be determined as described above:

	•		If the rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the prime rate will be the rate as published in H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Bank Prime Loan.”

	•		If the alternative rate described above is not published in H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the related calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the prime rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1, as defined below, as that bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as in effect as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date.

	•		If fewer than four rates appear on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1 for that Interest Determination Date, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, then the Calculation Agent will determine the prime rate to be the average of the prime rates or base lending rates

C-21

•

If the banks selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as described above, the prime rate will remain the prime rate then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

C-22

SECTION 5. Optional Repayment. If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, this Note will be repayable prior to the Stated Maturity Date at the option of the bearer on the Optional Repayment Date(s), if any, specified in the Pricing Supplement. IF NO OPTIONAL REPAYMENT DATES ARE SET FORTH IN THE PRICING SUPPLEMENT, THIS NOTE MAY NOT BE SO REPAID AT THE OPTION OF THE BEARER HEREOF PRIOR TO THE STATED MATURITY DATE. Unless otherwise provided in the Pricing Supplement, on any Optional Repayment Date, this Note shall be repayable in whole or in part at the option of the bearer hereof at a repayment price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be repaid, together with accrued and unpaid interest hereon payable at the applicable rate or rates borne by this Note to, but excluding, the date of repayment; provided, however, that, in the event of repayment of this Note in part only, the unrepaid portion hereof shall be at least the minimum Authorized Denomination specified in the Pricing Supplement, or if no such Authorized Denomination is so specified, €50,000 or its equivalent in the Specified Currency. For this Note to be repaid in whole or in part at the option of the bearer hereof on any Optional Repayment Date, this Note must be presented, with the form attached hereto entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” duly completed, at the offices of the London Paying Agent not more than 60 nor less than 30 days prior to the Optional Repayment Date. Upon such proper presentment, this Note will be repaid on the Optional Repayment Date, subject to the provisions of this Note governing payments. In the event of repayment of this Note in part only, a new Note for the unrepaid portion hereof shall be issued to the bearer hereof upon the surrender hereof or, where applicable, an appropriate notation will be made on Schedule 1 attached hereto. Exercise of such repayment option by the bearer hereof shall be irrevocable.

From and after any Optional Repayment Date, if monies for the repayment of this Note (or portion hereof) shall have been made available for repayment on such Optional Repayment Date, this Note (or such portion hereof) shall cease to bear interest and the bearer’s only right with respect to this Note (or such portion hereof) shall be to receive payment of the principal amount of the Note being repaid (or, if this is an Original Issue Discount Note as specified in the Pricing Supplement, the amortized face amount hereof) and, if appropriate, all unpaid interest accrued to such Optional Repayment Date.

To the extent then required under or pursuant to applicable laws or regulations (including, without limitation, capital regulations), if this Note is a Subordinated Note, as indicated on the face hereof, it may not be repaid at the option of the holder prior to the Stated Maturity Date without the prior written approval of the OCC or any other bank supervisory authority having jurisdiction over the Issuer and requiring such approval.

SECTION 6. Additional Amounts. All payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to this Note will be made without withholding or deduction at source for, or on account of, any present or future taxes, fees, duties, assessments, or governmental charges of whatever nature imposed or levied by the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein, except to the extent such withholding or deduction is required by (i) the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein or (ii) an official position regarding the application, administration, interpretation, or enforcement of any such laws, regulations, or rulings (including, without limitation, a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a taxing authority in the United States or any political subdivision thereof). If so specified in the Pricing Supplement, if a withholding or deduction at source is required, the Bank will, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth below, pay to the beneficial owner of this Note that is a “non-U.S. person” (as defined below) additional amounts (“Additional Amounts”) to ensure that every net payment on this Note will not be less, due to the payment of U.S. withholding tax, than the amount then otherwise due and payable. For this purpose, a “net payment” on this Note means a payment by the Issuer or any Paying Agent, including payment of principal and interest, after deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge of the United States (other than a territory or possession). These Additional Amounts will constitute additional interest on this Note.
