Due From 7 Days to 30 Years or More from Date of Issue

AMENDED AND RESTATED DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

November 21, 2006

TO EACH OF THE DISTRIBUTION AGENTS LISTED

ON SCHEDULE 1 HERETO

Ladies and Gentlemen:

SunTrust Bank, a banking corporation chartered under the laws of the State of Georgia (the “Bank”), confirms its agreement with each of the distribution agents listed on Schedule 1 hereto (each referred to as a “Distribution Agent” and collectively referred to as the “Distribution Agents”) with respect to the issue and sale by it of its (i) senior unsecured debt obligations not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) (the “Senior Notes”) and (ii) subordinated unsecured debt obligations not insured by the FDIC (the “Subordinated Notes”, and together with the Senior Notes, the “Bank Notes”), under its global Bank Note program (the “Program”). The Bank Notes have maturities of 7 days to 30 years or more from date of issue. The Bank Notes are to be issued pursuant to an Amended and Restated Global Agency Agreement, dated as of November 21, 2006 (the “Global Agency Agreement”), among the Bank and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as domestic paying agent (the “Domestic Paying Agent”) and domestic registrar (the “Domestic Registrar”), Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as London paying agent (the “London Paying Agent”), London issuing agent (the “London Issuing Agent”) and transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”), and Deutsche International Corporate Services (Ireland) Limited, as European registrar (the “European Registrar” and, together with the Domestic Registrar, the “Registrars”), and Irish paying agent (the “Irish Paying Agent”, and together with the Domestic Paying Agent and the London Paying Agent, the “Paying Agents” and, each individually, a “Paying Agent”). Xxxxxx Xxx Listing Services Limited has been appointed as the Bank’s Irish listing agent (the “Listing Agent”) in connection with any Notes listed on the Irish Stock Exchange (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement).

Unless otherwise agreed to between the Bank and the Distribution Agent(s), the Bank Notes must be sold in minimum denominations of U.S.$100,000 or the equivalent thereof in other currencies, calculated as described in the Offering Circular (as defined in Section 2(a)(i) of this Agreement), and not be exchangeable for Bank Notes in smaller denominations. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, Bank Notes subject to the requirements of the Prospectus Directive (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) must be sold in minimum denominations of the greater of U.S.$100,000 or €50,000 (or the equivalent thereof in other currencies). Bearer Notes (as defined in the Offering Circular) with a maturity of 183 days or less must be sold in minimum denominations of U.S.$500,000 (or the equivalent thereof in other currencies) or, if subject to the requirements of the Prospectus Directive, the greater of U.S.$500,000 or €50,000 (or the equivalent thereof in other currencies), in each case calculated as described in the Offering Circular.

As of the date hereof, the Bank has authorized the issuance of up to U.S.$20,000,000,000 (or the equivalent thereof in other currencies, calculated as described in the Offering Circular) aggregate principal amount (whether issued prior to or on or after the date hereof) at any one time outstanding of its Bank Notes. It is understood, however, that the Bank may from time to time authorize the issuance of an additional outstanding amount of Bank Notes and that the Bank Notes may be distributed through or sold to one or more of the Distribution Agents pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, all as though the issuance of the Bank Notes were authorized as of the date hereof. The Bank is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of SunTrust Banks, Inc. (“SunTrust Banks”).

Application has been made to the Irish Financial Services Regulatory Authority (the “Financial Regulator”), as Competent Authority (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) under the Prospectus Directive (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement), for the Filed Prospectus (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) to be approved as a base Prospectus (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement). Application has been made to the Irish Stock Exchange for Bank Notes to be issued for a period of 12 months from the date of the Filed Prospectus to be admitted to the Official List (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) and to trading on the regulated market of the Irish Stock Exchange.

Bank Notes may be listed or admitted to trading, as the case may be, on such other or further Stock Exchanges (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) or markets agreed between the Bank and the relevant Distribution Agent(s) in relation to the Series (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement). Bank Notes that are neither listed nor admitted to trading on any market may also be issued.

In this Agreement, in relation to any (A) Bank Notes that are to have a “listing” or to be “listed” (i) on the Irish Stock Exchange, “listing” and “listed” shall be construed to mean that such Bank Notes have been admitted to the Official List and admitted to trading on the Irish Stock Exchange’s regulated market and (ii) on any other European Economic Area (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) Stock Exchange, “listed” and “listing” shall be construed in a similar manner as if the Prospectus Directive (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) were implemented in the Relevant Member State (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) and (B) any Bank Notes that are to have a “listing” or to be “listed” on a Stock Exchange other than the Irish Stock Exchange or any other European Economic Area Stock Exchange, references to “listed” and “listing” shall be construed to mean that such Bank Notes have been listed on that Stock Exchange and/or admitted to trading on the relevant market, as the case may be.

The Bank agrees that each time the Bank makes a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement (including, but not limited to, an agreement relating to indemnification or contribution) in this Agreement, in any applicable Terms Agreement (as defined in Section 3(a) hereof) or in any certificate signed by an officer of the Bank delivered to one or more of the Distribution Agents or

counsel to the Distribution Agents, that refers or relates to the Offering Circular, the Bank, in addition to making such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement as to the Offering Circular, shall also be deemed to be making a separate, additional representation, warranty, covenant or agreement, as the case may be, as to the Filed Prospectus, unless the context otherwise requires.

This Agreement provides both for the sale of Bank Notes by the Bank to the Distribution Agents as principal for resale to investors and other purchasers and for the sale of Bank Notes by the Bank directly to investors through the Distribution Agents (as may from time to time be agreed to by the Bank and the Distribution Agents), in which case the Distribution Agents will act as agents of the Bank in soliciting Bank Note purchasers.

The Distribution Agreement, dated March 31, 2004, between the Bank and the Distribution Agents shall be amended and restated as set forth in this Agreement. Any Bank Notes sold on or after the date of this Agreement shall be governed by this Agreement and any applicable Terms Agreement. Any notes of the Bank sold prior to the date of this Agreement shall be governed by the distribution agreement and any applicable terms agreement under which such notes were issued.

SECTION 1. Appointment as Distribution Agents.

(a) Appointment of Distribution Agents. Subject to the terms and conditions stated herein and subject to the reservation by the Bank of the right to sell Bank Notes directly to investors on its own behalf in those jurisdictions where it is authorized to do so, the Bank hereby agrees that Bank Notes will be sold exclusively to or through the Distribution Agents. The Distribution Agents are authorized to engage the services of any other broker or dealer in connection with the offer or sale of the Bank Notes purchased by a Distribution Agent as principal for resale to others but are not authorized to appoint sub-agents. In connection with sales by the Distribution Agents of Bank Notes purchased by a Distribution Agent as principal to other brokers or dealers, a Distribution Agent may allow any portion of the discount it has received in connection with such purchase from the Bank to such brokers or dealers.

(b) Sale of Bank Notes. The Bank shall not approve the solicitation of purchases of Bank Notes in excess of the amount which shall be authorized to be outstanding by the Bank from time to time or in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Bank Notes specified in the Offering Circular. The Distribution Agents will have no responsibility for maintaining records with respect to the aggregate principal amount of Bank Notes sold or outstanding, or of otherwise monitoring the availability of Bank Notes for sale.

(c) Purchases as Principal. The Distribution Agents shall not have any obligation to purchase Bank Notes from the Bank as principal, but the Distribution Agents may agree from time to time to purchase Bank Notes as principal. Any such purchase of Bank Notes by a Distribution Agent as principal shall be made in accordance with Section 3(a) hereof.

(d) Solicitations as Distribution Agent. If agreed upon by a Distribution Agent and the Bank, the Distribution Agent, acting solely as agent for the Bank and not as principal, will solicit purchases of the Bank Notes. The Distribution Agent will communicate to the Bank, orally or in writing, each offer to purchase Bank Notes solicited by such Distribution Agent on an agency basis, other than those offers rejected by the Distribution Agent. The Distribution Agent shall have the right, in its discretion reasonably exercised, to reject any proposed purchase of Bank Notes, as a whole or in part, and any such rejection shall not be deemed a breach of any Distribution Agent’s agreement contained herein. The Bank may accept or reject any proposed purchase of the Bank Notes in whole or in part. The Distribution Agent shall make reasonable efforts to assist the Bank in obtaining performance by each purchaser whose offer to purchase Bank Notes has been solicited by the Distribution Agent and accepted by the Bank. The Distribution Agent shall not have any liability to the Bank in the event any such agency purchase is not consummated for any reason. If the Bank shall default on its obligation to deliver Bank Notes to a purchaser whose offer it has accepted, the Bank shall (i) hold the Distribution Agent harmless against any loss, claim or damage arising from or as a result of such default by the Bank and (ii) notwithstanding such default, pay to the Distribution Agent any commission to which it would be entitled in connection with such sale.

(e) Additional Agents. The Bank may, from time to time, engage additional agents either as principal or as an agent for the sale of the Bank Notes. Any additional agents shall be required, as a condition to their engagement, either to enter into this Agreement (amended to include such additional agents as signatories) or into an agreement with the Bank substantially similar to this Agreement.

(f) Stabilization.

(i) The Distribution Agent (if any) specified as the Stabilization Manager in the Pricing Supplement (as defined in Section 4(f) of this Agreement) relating to any Tranche (as defined in Section 17 of this Agreement) of Bank Notes offered and sold in the United States or any person acting for the Stabilization Manager may, in connection with such Bank Notes, over-allot or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Bank Notes of the Series of which such Tranche forms a part at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail for a limited period, but in so doing, the Stabilization Manager (or any person acting for him) shall act as principal and not as agent of the Bank. Such stabilization, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time. Such stabilization shall be conducted in accordance with all relevant laws, regulations and rules. Any loss or profit sustained as a consequence of any such over-allotment or stabilization shall, as against the Bank, be for the account of such named Distribution Agent.

(ii)(A) In connection with the issue of any Tranche of Bank Notes that are to be admitted to the regulated market of the Irish Stock Exchange, the Distribution Agent (if any) named as the stabilizing manager (or persons acting on behalf of any stabilizing manager) in the applicable Final Terms (as defined in Section 4(f) of this Agreement) (the “Stabilizing Manager”) may over-allot Bank Notes, provided that the aggregate principal amount of such Bank Notes allotted does not exceed 105 per cent. of the aggregate principal amount of the relevant Tranche, or effect transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Bank Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilizing Manager (or persons acting on behalf of a Stabilizing Manager) will undertake stabilization action. Any stabilization action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the final terms of the offer of the relevant Tranche of Bank Notes is made and, if begun, may be ended at any time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the Settlement Date (as defined in Section 2(a) of this Agreement) of the relevant Tranche of Bank Notes and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the relevant Tranche of Bank Notes.

(B) Any loss or profit sustained as a consequence of any such over-allotment or stabilizing will be for the account of the Stabilizing Manager. In carrying out any stabilization activity, the Stabilizing Manager shall act as principal and not as an agent of the Bank.

(C) The Bank represents and warrants that it has not issued and will not issue, without the prior consent of the Stabilizing Manager (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), any press or other public announcement referring to the proposed issue of the Bank Notes unless the announcement adequately discloses that stabilizing action may take place in relation to the Bank Notes to be issued.

(D) The Bank authorizes the Stabilizing Manager to make all appropriate announcements and disclosures in relation to any stabilization or ancillary stabilization action taken in respect of the Bank Notes.

(g) Reliance. The Bank and the Distribution Agents agree that the Bank Notes purchased by the Distribution Agents shall be purchased, and the Bank Notes the placement of which a Distribution Agent arranges shall be placed by such Distribution Agent, in reliance on the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of the Bank contained herein and on the terms and conditions and in the manner provided herein.

SECTION 2. Representations and Warranties.

(a) The Bank represents and warrants to each Distribution Agent as of the date hereof, as of the date of each acceptance by the Bank of an offer for the purchase of Bank Notes (whether to the Distribution Agent as principal or through the Distribution Agent as agent), as of the date of each delivery of Bank Notes (whether to such Distribution Agent as principal or through such Distribution Agent as agent) (the date of each such delivery to a Distribution Agent as principal being hereafter referred to as a “Settlement Date”), as of the Applicable Time (as defined below) and as of the times referred to in Section 8(b) hereof (each of the times referenced above being referred to hereafter as a “Representation Date”), as follows:

The Bank is a banking corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Georgia, and is licensed, registered or qualified to conduct the business in which it is engaged in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property requires such license, registration or qualification, except to the extent that the failure to be so licensed, registered or qualified or to be in good standing would not have a material adverse effect on the Bank and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

The Bank may, but shall not be obliged to, seek an alternative listing for such Bank Notes.

SECTION 9. Indemnification.

(a) Indemnification of Distribution Agents. The Bank agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Distribution Agent, each person who controls any Distribution Agent and each affiliate of any Distribution Agent which assists such Distribution Agent in the distribution of the Bank Notes within the meaning of the 1933 Act or of the 1934 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, to which they or any of them may become subject under the 1933 Act or the 1934 Act or other Federal or state, or other, statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, as incurred, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Offering Circular, the Disclosure Package or any Supplemental Offering Materials (including for purposes of this Section 9 all amendments and supplements thereto and any of the documents incorporated by reference therein), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them, as incurred, in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Bank will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Bank by or on behalf of any Distribution Agent specifically for use in the Offering Circular, the Disclosure Package or any Supplemental Offering Materials. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which the Bank may otherwise have.

(b) Indemnification of the Bank. Each Distribution Agent severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Bank and each person who controls the Bank within the meaning of the 1933 Act or of the 1934 Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Bank to each Distribution Agent, but only with reference to written information furnished to the Bank by or on behalf of such Distribution Agent specifically for use in the Offering Circular, the Disclosure Package or any Supplemental Offering Materials. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which any Distribution Agent may otherwise have.

(c) Notification. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to either of the two preceding paragraphs, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing, and the Indemnifying Person, upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel

reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others the Indemnifying Person may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person or (iii) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for the Distribution Agents, each affiliate of any Distribution Agent which assists such Distribution Agent in the distribution of the Bank Notes and such control persons of the Distribution Agents shall be designated in writing by the Distribution Agents that are Indemnified Parties and any such separate firm for the Bank, its directors, its officers and such control persons of the Bank or authorized representatives shall be designated in writing by the Bank. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested an Indemnifying Person to reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the third sentence of this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such Indemnifying Person of the aforesaid request and (ii) such Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

SECTION 10. Contribution.

If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) or (b) of Section 9 is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein in connection with any offering of Bank Notes, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the

amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Bank on the one hand and each Distribution Agent on the other from the offering of the Bank Notes to which such loss, claim, damage or liability relates or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Bank on the one hand and each Distribution Agent on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Bank on the one hand and each Distribution Agent on the other hand in connection with the offering of such Bank Notes shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportion as the net proceeds from the offering of such Bank Notes (before deducting expenses) received by the Bank and the total discounts and commissions received by each Distribution Agent in respect thereof bear to the aggregate offering price of such Bank Notes. The relative fault of the Bank on the one hand and of each Distribution Agent on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Bank or by such Distribution Agent and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or the omission or alleged omission.

The Bank and each Distribution Agent agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 10 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if all Distribution Agents were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 10. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above in Sections 9 and 10 shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 9 and 10, in no event shall a Distribution Agent be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Bank Notes referred to in Section 10 that were sold by or through such Distribution Agent exceeds the amount of any damages that such Distribution Agent has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The obligation of each Distribution Agent to contribute pursuant to this Section 10 is several (in the proportion that the principal amount of the Bank Notes the sale of which by or through such Distribution Agent gave rise to such losses, claims, damages or liabilities bears to the aggregate principal amount of the Bank Notes the sale of which by or through any Distribution Agent gave rise to such losses, claims, damages or liabilities) and is not joint.

SECTION 11. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery.

All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or contained in certificates of officers of the Bank pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Distribution Agents or any controlling person of a Distribution Agent, or by or on behalf of the Bank, and shall survive each delivery of and payment for any of the Bank Notes.

SECTION 12. Termination.

(a) Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement (excluding any agreement hereunder by a Distribution Agent to purchase Bank Notes as principal) may be terminated for any reason, at any time by either the Bank or any of the Distribution Agents as to itself, immediately upon the giving of 30 days’ written notice of such termination to the other party hereto in accordance with the provisions of Section 13 hereof.

(b) Termination of an Agreement to Purchase Bank Notes as Principal. A Distribution Agent may terminate an agreement hereunder by such Distribution Agent to purchase Bank Notes as principal, immediately upon written notice to the Bank, at any time prior to the Settlement Date relating thereto (i) if there has been, since the date of such agreement or since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Offering Circular or the Disclosure Package, any material adverse change, or any development which could be expected to result in a material adverse change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Bank and its subsidiaries, or of SunTrust Banks and its subsidiaries, as the case may be, considered as one enterprise, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there shall have occurred any material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States or any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or other national or international calamity or crisis the effect of which is such as to make it, in the judgment of such Distribution Agent, impracticable to market the Bank Notes or enforce contracts for the sale of the Bank Notes, or (iii) there shall have occurred a change in international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls as would be likely to prejudice materially the sale by such Distribution Agent of the Bank Notes, or (iv) if trading in any securities of the Bank or SunTrust Banks shall have been suspended by the Commission or a national securities exchange, or if trading generally on any of the Irish Stock Exchange (or any other Stock Exchange or Regulated Market, if a Series of Bank Notes is then listed on such Stock Exchange or Regulated Market), the New York Stock Exchange or the Chicago Board of Trade shall have been suspended, or minimum or maximum prices for trading shall have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices for securities shall have been required, by any of said exchanges or by order of the Commission or any other governmental authority, or if a banking moratorium shall have been declared by either federal, New York State or Georgia authorities, as the case may be, or there shall have occurred a material disruption in commercial banking or securities clearance settlement services in the United States, or (v) if the rating assigned by any nationally recognized securities rating agency to any debt securities of the Bank or SunTrust Banks as of the date of any agreement by a Distribution Agent to purchase the Bank Notes as principal shall have been lowered since that date or if any such rating agency shall have publicly

announced that it has placed under surveillance or review, other than with positive implications, its rating of any debt securities or deposits of the Bank or SunTrust Banks, or (vi) if there shall have come to such Distribution Agent’s attention any facts that would cause such Distribution Agent to believe that (x) the Offering Circular or any amendments thereto or supplements thereof, at the time it was required to be delivered to a purchaser of Bank Notes, or (y) the Disclosure Package, at the Applicable Time or at the Settlement Date (excluding, for the purposes of this clause (y), any amendment or supplement to the Disclosure Package made after the Applicable Time, unless the Distribution Agents have agreed in writing to such amendment or supplement) contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances existing at the time of such delivery, the Applicable Time or the Settlement Date, as the case may be, not misleading.

In the event of any such termination, none of the parties will have any liability to the other parties hereto, except that (i) the Distribution Agents shall be entitled to any commissions earned in accordance with the third paragraph of Section 3(b) hereof, (ii) if at the time of termination (a) a Distribution Agent shall own any Bank Notes purchased with the intention of reselling them or (b) an offer to purchase any of the Bank Notes has been accepted by the Bank but the time of delivery to the purchaser or his agent of the Bank Note or Bank Notes relating thereto has not occurred, the covenants set forth in Sections 4 and 8 hereof shall remain in effect until such Bank Notes are so resold or delivered, as the case may be, and (iii) the provisions of Section 5 hereof, the indemnity and contribution agreements set forth in Sections 9 and 10 hereof, and the provisions of Sections 11, 14 and 15 hereof shall remain in effect.

(b) if the aggregate principal amount of Defaulted Notes exceeds 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the Bank Notes to be purchased under the applicable Terms Agreement, such Terms Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Distribution Agents acting as principal pursuant to such Terms Agreement.

No action taken pursuant to this Section 16 shall relieve any defaulting Distribution Agents acting as principal under the applicable Terms Agreement from liability in respect of its default.

In the event of any such default that does not result in a termination of the applicable Terms Agreement, either the non-defaulting Distribution Agent(s) acting as principal pursuant to such Terms Agreement or the Bank shall have the right to postpone the Settlement Date for a period not exceeding seven days in order to effect any required changes in any documents or arrangements relating thereto.

[FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE BANK AND SUNTRUST BANKS]

To the DISTRIBUTION AGENTS, as set forth in Schedule I hereto

Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas

Trust & Securities Services

00 Xxxx Xxxxxx-00^xx Xxxxx

Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000

Ladies and Gentlemen:

I am the General Counsel of SunTrust Banks, Inc. (“SunTrust Banks”) and SunTrust Bank (the “Bank”) and, together with other attorneys under my supervision have acted as counsel to the Bank and SunTrust Banks, in connection with the execution today (i) by you and the Bank of the Amended and Restated Distribution Agreement dated November 21, 2006 (the “Distribution Agreement”), (ii) by SunTrust Banks of the Representations Certificate pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Distribution Agreement dated November 21, 2006 (the “Representations Certificate”), (iii) by the Bank and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and Deutsche International Corporate Services (Ireland) Limited (together, the “Paying Agents”) of the Amended and Restated Global Agency Agreement dated November 21, 2006 (the “Global Agency Agreement”), the Amended and Restated Interest Calculation Agreement dated November 21, 2006 between the Bank and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (the “Interest Calculation Agreement”), the Exchange Rate Agency Agreement dated November 21, 2006 between the Bank and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch (the “Exchange Rate Agency Agreement), and the Bringdown Short-Term and Medium-Term Letters of Representations (the “Letters of Representations”) by and among the Bank, Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas and The Depository Trust Company, relating to the issuance and sale by the Bank of its (i) senior bank notes (the “Senior Notes”) and (ii) subordinated bank notes (the “Subordinated Notes” and together with the Senior Notes, the “Bank Notes”). The Bank Notes have maturities of 7 days to 30 years or more from date of issue. This opinion letter is furnished pursuant to Section 6(a)(i) of the Distribution Agreement. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings set forth in the Distribution Agreement.

In arriving at the opinions expressed below, I have examined and relied on the following documents:

(a)

an executed copy of the Distribution Agreement, the Representations Certificate, the Global Agency Agreement, the Exchange Rate Agency Agreement, the Interest Calculation Agreement;

(b)

the Offering Circular;

B-1

(c)

specimens of the Bank Notes; and

(d)

the documents delivered to you by the Bank and SunTrust Banks at the closing pursuant to the Distribution Agreement.

In addition, I have examined and relied on the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction of all such corporate records of the Bank and SunTrust Banks and such other instruments and other certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Bank and SunTrust Banks and such other persons, and I have made such investigations of law, as I have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below. In rendering the opinions expressed below, I have assumed and have not verified that the signatures on all documents that I have examined are genuine, that all copies of documents that I have examined conform to the originals thereof, and that the Bank Notes conform to the specimen thereof that I have examined.

Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that:

1. The Bank is a banking corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Georgia. SunTrust Banks is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Georgia and is licensed, registered or qualified to conduct the business in which it is engaged in each jurisdiction in which the conduct of its business or its ownership or leasing of property requires such license, registration or qualification, except to the extent that the failure to be so licensed, registered or qualified or to be in good standing would not have a material adverse effect on the Bank and its subsidiaries taken as a whole. The Bank is a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of SunTrust Banks, which has securities registered under the 1934 Act.

2. The Distribution Agreement, the Global Agency Agreement, the Interest Calculation Agreement, the Exchange Rate Agency Agreement and the Letters of Representations have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Bank and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by all parties thereto other than the Bank, are legal, valid, binding and enforceable agreements of the Bank, subject to applicable bankruptcy, liquidation, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium, conservatorship, receivership, and similar laws of general applicability relating to, or affecting, creditors’ rights and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

3. The Representations Certificate has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of SunTrust Banks and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of the Distribution Agreement, the Global Agency Agreement, the Interest Calculation Agreement and the Exchange Rate Agency Agreement by all parties thereto other than the Bank, is a legal, valid, binding and enforceable agreement of SunTrust Banks, subject to applicable bankruptcy, liquidation, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium, conservatorship, receivership and similar laws of general

B-2

applicability relating to, or affecting, creditors’ rights and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

4. The Bank Notes have been duly authorized for issuance and sale pursuant to the Distribution Agreement and, when issued and authenticated against payment of the consideration therefor, the Bank Notes will be legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Bank, subject to applicable bankruptcy, liquidation, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium, conservatorship, receivership, and similar laws of general applicability relating to, or affecting creditors rights and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

5. The execution, issuance and delivery by the Bank of the Bank Notes, the execution, delivery and performance by the Bank of the Distribution Agreement, the Global Agency Agreement, the Interest Calculation Agreement, the Exchange Rate Agency Agreement, the Letters of Representations and any agreement by an agent party to the Distribution Agreement to purchase the Bank Notes as principal, and the execution, delivery and performance by SunTrust Banks of the Representations Certificate, do not violate any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable to SunTrust Banks or its subsidiaries or the Bank or its subsidiaries (including without limitation, Sections 7-1-291 and 7-1-419 of the Official Code of Georgia), if any, or violate any provision of any of the Bank’s or SunTrust Banks’ Charter, Bylaws, or Articles of Incorporation, as the case may be, or conflict with or result in a material breach of or constitute a material default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any material lien, charge or encumbrance upon any property or assets of SunTrust Banks or its subsidiaries or the Bank or its subsidiaries, if any, pursuant to any contract, indenture, mortgage, loan agreement, note, lease or other instrument known to me to which SunTrust Banks or any of its subsidiaries or the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, if any, or the property of any of them, is bound or subject.

6. The Bank Notes are exempt from registration under the 1933 Act pursuant to Section 3(a)(2) thereof. Qualification of an indenture under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, is not required in connection with the offer, sale, issuance or delivery of the Bank Notes pursuant to the Distribution Agreement or any applicable agreement by an agent party to the Distribution Agreement to purchase the Bank Notes as principal.

7. The Bank is not required to register under the provisions of the Investment Company Act.

8. No consent, approval or authorization of or filing with any Federal or Georgia governmental body or agency is required for the performance by the Bank of its obligations under the Distribution Agreement, the Global Agency Agreement, the Interest Calculation Agreement, the Exchange Rate Agency Agreement, and any applicable agreement by an agent party to the

B-3

Distribution Agreement to purchase the Bank Notes as principal or the Bank Notes, except (A) such as may be required by the securities or Blue Sky laws of the various states in connection with the offer and sale of the Bank Notes and (B) with respect to Subordinated Notes, such approvals of the Georgia Department of Banking and Finance as are required by Section 7-1-419 of the Official Code of Georgia, which approvals have been obtained.

9. The Bank Notes conform in all material respects to the description thereof contained in the Offering Circular under the caption “Description of Notes” and in the Disclosure Package.

10. The Senior Notes are unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of the Bank, and rank pari passu among themselves and with all other unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of the Bank except, (A) pursuant to Section 11(d)(11) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Bank’s unsecured deposit obligations and (B) pursuant to Section 7-1-202 of the Official Code of Georgia, the Bank’s deposit obligations. The Subordinated Notes are unsecured and subordinated debt obligations of the Bank, rank pari passu among themselves, and are subordinate and junior in right of payment to the Bank’s obligations to its depositors and general creditors, other than obligations which, by their express terms, rank on a parity with or junior to the Subordinated Notes.

11. Except as may be set forth in the Offering Circular and the Disclosure Package, there is no action, suit or proceeding before or by any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, now pending, or, to my knowledge, threatened against or affecting, SunTrust Banks or any of its subsidiaries or the Bank and its subsidiaries, if any, which is reasonably likely to be determined against such party, and, if determined adversely to SunTrust Banks or any of its subsidiaries or the Bank or any of its subsidiaries, as the case may be, could reasonably be expected to result in any material adverse change in the financial condition, or in the earnings or business affairs, of SunTrust Banks and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or the Bank and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, or could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the consummation of the Distribution Agreement, the Global Agency Agreement, the Interest Calculation Agreement, the Exchange Rate Agency Agreement or the Bank Notes or any transaction contemplated thereby.

To my knowledge and except as may be set forth in the Offering Circular and the Disclosure Package, none of the Bank nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to or otherwise subject to any consent decree, memorandum of understanding, written commitment or other supervisory agreement with any Banking Regulator or any other federal or state agency or authority.

B-4

Because the primary purpose of my role in the transaction was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial, accounting or statistical matters and because of the wholly or partially non-legal character of many of the statements contained in the Offering Circular, I am not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Offering Circular and I make no representation that I have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such statements. Without limiting the foregoing, I assume no responsibility for, and have not independently verified, the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical data included in the Offering Circular, and I have not examined the accounting, financial or statistical records from which such financial statements, schedules and data are derived. I note that, while certain portions of the Offering Circular (including financial statements and schedules) have been included therein on the authority of “experts” within the meaning of the 1933 Act, as amended, I am not such an expert with respect to any portion of the Offering Circular, including without limitation such financial statements or schedules or the other financial or statistical data included therein.

I advise you that no information has come to my attention that causes me to believe that the Offering Circular (other than the financial statements and schedules and other financial and statistical data included therein, as to which I express no view) as of the date thereof or hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

I express no opinion other than as to the federal law of the United States of America and the laws of the State of Georgia. For purposes of the opinions expressed in paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 above, I have assumed, without any independent investigation, that the laws of the State of New York are identical in all relevant respects to the laws of the State of Georgia.

I am furnishing this opinion letter to you solely for your benefit. This opinion letter is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose, except that Sidley Austin LLP may rely upon this opinion letter to the same extent as if it were addressed to it for purposes of rendering its opinion to you on the date hereof.

Very truly yours,
