ARTICLE I
General Terms and Conditions of
the Series % Debentures
SECTION 1.01. (a) There shall be and is hereby authorized a
series of Securities designated the " % Junior Subordinated Debentures Due
20[ ]", limited in aggregate principal amount to $ (except as
provided in this Section 1.01 and Section 6.01). Upon exercise of the

in Section 1.01(b) and 1.01(c), the Series % Debentures shall mature and
the principal thereof shall be due and payable, together with all accrued and
unpaid interest thereon, including Compounded Interest (as defined below) on

(b) Subject to the terms of Article II of the Indenture, the
Company shall have the right to shorten the Stated Maturity of the Series %

time any election to shorten the Stated Maturity is made and at the time of
such shortening the Company shall have received Federal Reserve Approval (as
defined below) therefor.
(c) Subject to the terms of Article II of the Indenture, the
Company shall have the right to extend the Stated Maturity of the Series %
Debentures to a date no later than [the 49th anniversary of the initial
issuance of the Preferred Securities] [ , 2045]; provided, that at the
time such election to extend the Stated Maturity is made and at the time of
such extension, (i) the Company is not in

default on the payment of any interest or principal on the Series % Debentures
[and no deferred interest payments thereon have accrued], (iii) JPM Capital
Trust [ ] is not in arrears on payments of Distributions (as defined in the
Declaration) on its Preferred Securities and no deferred Distributions thereon
are accumulated, (iv) the Series % Debentures are rated by a nationally
recognized statistical rating organization and such rating is BBB- or higher if
such organization is Standard & Poor's Rating Services, Baa3 or higher if such
organization is Xxxxx'x Investors Services Inc. or an equivalent rating if such
organization is any other nationally recognized statistical rating organization
and (v) the Company shall have received Federal Reserve Approval therefor.
"Federal Reserve Approval" means the approval of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the "Federal Reserve") then required
to be obtained under applicable capital guidelines or policies of the Federal
Reserve in connection with any action to be taken by the Company or JPM Capital
Trust [ ] with respect to the Series % Debentures or the Preferred
Securities.
SECTION 1.02. (a) Except as provided in Section 1.02(b), the
Series % Debentures shall be issued in definitive registered certificated
form without interest coupons. Principal and interest on the Series %
Debentures issued in certificated form will be payable, the transfer of such
Series % Debentures will be registrable and such Series % Debentures
will be exchangeable for Series % Debentures bearing identical terms and
provisions at the office or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan,
The City and State of New York; provided, however, that payment of interest may
be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the registered holder
at such address as shall appear in the Security Register and that the payment
of principal with respect to the Series % Debentures will only be made upon
surrender of the Series % Debentures to the Trustee. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, so long as the Property Trustee is the record holder of Series %
Debentures, the payment of the principal of, and interest (including Compounded
Interest, if any) on, the Series % Debentures held of record by the
Property Trustee will be made by the Company in immediately available funds on
the payment date therefor to the Property Account (as defined in the
6
Declaration of Trust) established and maintained by the Property Trustee
pursuant to the Declaration of Trust.
(b) In connection with a Dissolution Event:
(i) Series % Debentures in certificated form in an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount
of all Preferred Securities held in book-entry form may be presented
to the Trustee by the Property Trustee in exchange for a Global
Debenture representing such Series % Debentures, such Global
Debenture to be registered in the name of the Depositary, or its
nominee, and delivered by the Trustee to the Depositary pursuant to
the instructions of the Regular Trustees (as defined in the
Declaration of Trust) for crediting to the accounts of the
Depositary's participants. The Company, upon any such presentation,
shall execute a Global Debenture representing the Series %
Debentures in such aggregate principal amount and deliver the same to
the Trustee for authentication and delivery in accordance with the
Indenture and this [ ] Supplemental Indenture. Payments on the
Series % Debentures issued as a Global Debenture will be made to
the Depositary.
(ii) If any Preferred Securities are held in non book-entry
certificated form ("Non Book-Entry Preferred Securities"), Series
% Debentures in certificated form in an aggregate principal amount
equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of any such Non Book-Entry
Preferred Securities may be presented to the Trustee by the Property
Trustee, and any Preferred Security Certificate (as defined in the
Declaration of Trust) held in non book-entry certificated form will be
deemed to represent beneficial interests in such Series %
Debentures presented to the Trustee by the Property Trustee having an
aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount
of the Non Book-Entry Preferred Securities represented by such
Preferred Security Certificate until such Preferred Security
Certificate is presented to the Security registrar for transfer or
reissuance at which time such Preferred Security Certificate will be
canceled and a Series % Debenture, registered in the name of the
holder of the Preferred Security Certificate or the transferee of the
holder of such Preferred Security Certificate, as the case may be,
with an aggregate
7
principal amount equal to the aggregate liquidation amount of the
Preferred Security Certificate canceled will be executed by the
Company and delivered to the Trustee for authentication and delivery
in accordance with the Indenture and this [ ] Supplemental Indenture.
On issue of such Series % Debentures, Series % Debentures with
an equivalent aggregate principal amount that were presented by the
Property Trustee to the Trustee will be deemed to have been canceled.
SECTION 1.03. Each Series % Debenture will bear interest
at the rate of % per annum from , 199 until the principal
thereof becomes due and payable, and on any overdue principal, and (to the
extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law) on
any overdue installment of interest at the same rate per annum, compounded
quarterly, payable (subject to the provisions of Article III) quarterly in
arrears on the last day of each [March, June, September and December of each
year] (each, an "Interest Payment Date", commencing on , 199 ),
to the person in whose name such Series % Debenture (or one or more
Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the regular
record date for such interest installment, which, except as set forth below,
shall be, in respect of any Series % Debentures represented by a Global
Security or of which the Property Trustee is the registered holder, the close
of business on the Business Day next preceding the Interest Payment Date with
respect to such interest installment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence,
if the Preferred Securities are no longer in book-entry only form or if,
pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.11(c) of the Indenture, the Series %
Debentures are no longer represented solely by a Global Debenture, the regular
record date for such interest installment shall be the close of business on the
fifteenth day of the month in which the Interest Payment Date with respect to
such interest installment occurs. Any installment of interest not punctually
paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered
holder of a Series % Debenture on such regular record date and may be paid to
the person in whose name such Series % Debenture (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) is registered at the close of business on a special record date to
be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice
whereof to be given to the registered holders of the Series % Debentures not
less than 10 days prior to such special
8
record date, or may be paid at any time in any other lawful manner not
inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which the
Series % Debentures may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required
by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months and for any period
shorter than a quarterly interest period for which interest is computed, the
amount of interest payable will be computed on the basis of the actual number
of days elapsed. In the event that any date on which interest is payable on
the Series % Debentures is not a Business Day, then payment of interest
payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which is a
Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such
delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar
year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in
each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date.
ARTICLE II
Optional Redemption of the Series
% Debentures
SECTION 2.01. Except as provided in Section 2.02, Series %
Debentures may not be redeemed by the Company prior to , 200 . Subject
to the terms of Article III of the Indenture, the Company shall have the right
to redeem the Series % Debentures, in whole or in part, at any time or from
time to time, on or after , 200 , at a redemption price equal to
100% of the principal amount to be redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid
interest thereon, including Compounded Interest, if any, to the date of such
redemption (the "Optional Redemption Price"); provided that at the time of such
election to redeem and at the time of such redemption, the Company shall have
received Federal Reserve Approval therefor. Any redemption pursuant to this
Section will be made upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice.
SECTION 2.02. If, at any time, a Tax Event (as defined below)
shall occur or be continuing and (i) the Regular Trustees and the Company shall
have received an opinion (a "Redemption Tax Opinion") of nationally recognized
independent tax counsel experienced in such
9
matters that, as a result of such Tax Event, there is more than an
insubstantial risk that the Company would be precluded from deducting the
interest on the Series % Debentures for United States Federal income tax
purposes even if the Series % Debentures were distributed to the holders of
Preferred Securities and Common Securities in liquidation of such holders'
interest in the Trust as set forth in the Declaration of Trust or (ii) the
Regular Trustees shall have been informed by such tax counsel that a No
Recognition Opinion (as defined below) cannot be delivered to the Trust, the
Company shall have the right, upon not less than 30 or more than 60 days
notice, to redeem the Series % Debentures in whole or in part for cash at
the Optional Redemption Price within 90 days following the occurrence of such
Tax Event; provided that, at the time of such election to redeem and at the
time of such redemption, the Company shall have received Federal Reserve
Approval therefor; and provided further that if at the time there is available
to the Company or the Regular Trustees, on behalf of the Trust, the opportunity
to eliminate, within such 90-day period, such Tax Event by taking some
ministerial action ("Ministerial Action"), such as filing a form or making an
election, or pursuing some other similar reasonable measure that has no adverse
effect on the Trust, the Company or the holders of the Preferred Securities,
then the Company or the Regular Trustees, on behalf of the Trust, will pursue
such measure in lieu of redemption; and provided further that the Company shall
have no right to redeem the Series % Debentures while the Regular Trustees,
on behalf of the Trust, are pursuing any such Ministerial Action.
"Tax Event" means that the Regular Trustees and the Company
shall have obtained an opinion of nationally recognized independent tax counsel
experienced in such matters (a "Dissolution Tax Opinion") to the effect that on
or after , 199 as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change
(including any announced prospective change) in, the laws (or any regulations
thereunder) of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing
authority thereof or therein, (b) any amendment to, or change in, an
interpretation or application of any such laws or regulations by any
legislative body, court, governmental agency or regulatory authority (including
the enactment of any legislation and the publication of any judicial decision
or regulatory determination), (c) any interpretation or pronouncement that
provides for a position with respect to such laws or regulations that differs
from the theretofore generally accepted position or (d) any action taken by any
10
governmental agency or regulatory authority, which amendment or change is
enacted, promulgated, issued or effective or which interpretation or
pronouncement is issued or announced or which action is taken, in each case on
or after , 199 , there is more than an insubstantial risk that (i) the
Trust, is, or will be within 90 days of the date thereof, subject to United
States Federal income tax with respect to income accrued or received on the
Series % Debentures, (ii) the Trust is, or will be within 90 days of the
date thereof, subject to more than a de minimis amount of other taxes, duties
or other governmental charges or (iii) interest payable by the Company to the
Trust on the Series % Debentures is not, or within 90 days of the date
thereof will not be, deductible by the Company for United States Federal income
tax purposes.
"No Recognition Opinion" means an opinion of nationally
recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters, which opinion
may rely on any then applicable published revenue rulings of the Internal
Revenue Service, to the effect that the holders of the Preferred Securities
will not recognize any gain or loss for United States Federal income tax
purposes as a result of a dissolution of the Trust and distribution of the
Series % Debentures as provided in the Declaration of Trust.
SECTION 2.03. If the Series % Debentures are only
partially redeemed pursuant to this Article II, the Series % Debentures will be
redeemed pro rata or by lot or by any other equitable method chosen by the
Trustee; provided that if, at the time of redemption, any Series %
Debentures are represented by a Global Debenture, the Depositary shall
determine by lot the principal amount of such Series % Debentures held by
each Debentureholder to be redeemed in accordance with its customary
procedures. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a partial redemption of the
Series % Debentures would result in the delisting of the Preferred
Securities by any national securities exchange on which the Preferred
Securities are then listed, the Company shall not be permitted to effect such
partial redemption and will only redeem the Series % Debentures in whole.
11
ARTICLE III
Deferral of Interest Payment Period
SECTION 3.01. So long as the Company is not in default in the
payment of interest on the Series % Debentures, the Company shall have the
right, at any time during the term of the Series % Debentures, from time to
time to defer the interest payment period of the Series % Debentures for a
period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly interest periods (a "Deferral
Period"); provided, however, that at the end of any such period the Company
shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid thereon (together with interest on
such accrued and unpaid interest at the rate of % per annum, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, compounded quarterly ("Compounded Interest")).
During any Deferral Period, the Company shall not declare or pay any dividends
on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a distribution or liquidation payment
with respect to, any of its common stock or preferred stock or make any
payments on guarantees with respect thereto; provided, however, that the
foregoing restrictions shall not apply to (i) dividends, redemptions,
purchases, acquisitions, distributions or payments made by the Company by way
of issuance of shares of its capital stock, (ii) payments of accrued dividends
by the Company upon the redemption, exchange or conversion of any preferred
stock of the Company as may be outstanding from time to time in accordance with
the terms of such preferred stock or (iii) cash payments made by the Company in
lieu of delivering fractional shares upon the redemption, exchange or
conversion of any preferred stock of the Company as may be outstanding from
time to time in accordance with the terms of such preferred stock. Prior to
the termination of any Deferral Period, the Company may pay all or any portion
of the interest accrued on the Series % Debentures on any Interest Payment
Date to holders of record on the regular record date for such Interest Payment
Date or from time to time further defer such Deferral Period; provided that
such Deferral Period together with all such previous and further extensions
thereof may not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly interest periods. Upon the
termination of any Deferral Period and upon the payment of all accrued and
unpaid interest then due, together with Compounded Interest, the Company may
select a new Deferral Period. No interest shall be due and payable during a
Deferral Period, except at the end thereof. At the end of any Deferral Period,
the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on the Series %
12
Debentures, including any Compounded Interest, to the holders in whose names
the Series % Debentures are registered on the Security Register on the
regular record date for the first Interest Payment Date occurring at or after
the end of the Extended Interest Payment Period.
SECTION 3.02. (a) So long as the Property Trustee is the
sole record holder of the Series % Debentures, at the time the Company
selects a Deferral Period, the Company shall give both the Property Trustee and
the Trustee written notice of its selection of such Deferral Period at least
one Business Day prior to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding date on which
distributions on the Preferred Securities are payable and (ii) the date on
which the Trust is required to give notice of the record or payment date for
such distribution to the New York Stock Exchange (if the Preferred Securities
are then listed thereon) or other applicable self-regulatory organization or to
holders of the Preferred Securities, but in any event not less than one
Business Day prior to such record date. The Company shall cause the Trust to
give notice to the holders of the Preferred Securities of the Company's
selection of such Deferral Period.
(b) If as a result of a Dissolution Event, Series %
Debentures have been distributed to holders of Preferred Securities and Common
Securities, at the time the Company selects a Deferral Period, the Company
shall give the holders of the Series % Debentures and the Trustee written
notice of its selection of such Deferral Period at least 10 business days prior
to the earlier of (i) the next succeeding Interest Payment Date or (ii) the
date the Company is required to give notice of the record or payment date for
such interest payment to the New York Stock Exchange (if the Series %
Debentures are then listed thereon) or other applicable self-regulatory
organization or to holders of the Series % Debentures.
SECTION 3.03. The quarter in which any notice is given
pursuant to Section 3.02 shall be counted as one of the 20 consecutive
quarterly interest periods permitted in the maximum Extended Interest Payment
Period permitted under this Article III.

ARTICLE IV
Covenants Applicable to Series % Debentures
SECTION 4.01. So long as any Preferred Securities remain
outstanding, the Company will not declare or pay any dividends on, or redeem,

guarantees with respect thereto if at such time (i) the Company shall be in
default with respect to its Guarantee Payments (as defined in the Guarantee
Agreement) or other payment obligations under the Guarantee Agreement or (ii)
there shall have occurred any Event of Default under the Indenture with respect

of shares of its capital stock, (ii) payments of accrued dividends by the
Company upon the redemption, exchange or conversion of any preferred stock of
the Company as may be outstanding from time to time in accordance with the
terms of such preferred stock or (iii) cash payments made by the Company in
lieu of delivering fractional shares upon the redemption, exchange or
conversion of any preferred stock of the Company as may be outstanding from
time to time in accordance with the terms of such preferred stock.
SECTION 4.02. In connection with the distribution of the
Series % Debentures to the holders of the Preferred Securities upon a
Dissolution Event, the Company will use its best efforts to list such Series
% Debentures on the New York Stock Exchange or on such other exchange as the
Preferred Securities are then listed.
SECTION 4.03. The Company covenants and agrees for the
benefit of the holders of the Preferred Securities to comply fully with all its
obligations and agreements under the Declaration of Trust, including, without
limitation, its obligations under Article IV thereof.
SECTION 4.04. Prior to the distribution of Series %
Debentures to the holders of Preferred Securities upon a Dissolution Event, the
Company covenants and agrees for the benefit of the holders of the Preferred
Securities (i) to remain the sole direct or indirect owner of all
14
Common Securities issued by the Trust and not to cause or permit the Common
Securities to be transferred except to the extent permitted by the Declaration
of Trust; provided that any permitted successor of the Company under the
Indenture may succeed to the Company's ownership of such Common Securities and

% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURE
DUE 20
X.X. Xxxxxx & Co. Incorporated, a corporation duly organized
and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (herein referred to as the
"Company", which term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture
hereinafter referred to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to
, or registered assigns, the principal sum of Dollars on , 20[ ] (the
"Stated Maturity", such date subject to shortening or extension as set forth
herein and in the Indenture) and to pay interest on said principal sum from
, 199 or from the most recent interest payment date (each such date, an
"Interest Payment Date") to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
quarterly (subject to deferral as set forth herein) in arrears on the last day
of each quarter commencing , 199 , at the rate of % per annum,
until the principal hereof shall have become due and payable, and on any
overdue principal and (to the extent that payment of such interest is
enforceable under applicable law) on any overdue installment of interest at the
same rate per annum, compounded quarterly. The amount of interest payable for
any period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day
months and for any period shorter than a quarterly interest period for which
interest is computed, the amount of interest payable will be computed on the
basis of the actual number of days elapsed. In the event that any date on
which interest is payable on this Debenture is not a Business Day, then payment
of interest payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day which
is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any
such delay), except that, if such Business Day is in the next succeeding
calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business
Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date. The
interest installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on
any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture referred to on the
reverse side hereof, be paid to the
16
person in whose name this Debenture (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such
interest installment, which shall be the close of business on the Business Day
next preceding such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if the
Preferred Securities are no longer in book-entry only form or if, pursuant to
the provisions of Section 2.11(c) of the Indenture, the Series % Debentures
are no longer represented solely by a Global Security, the regular record date
shall be the close of business on the fifteenth day of the month in which such
Interest Payment Date occurs. Any such interest installment not punctually
paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered
holder of this Security on such regular record date, and may be paid to the
person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is
registered at the close of business on a special record date to be fixed by the
Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice whereof to be given
to the registered holders of this series of Securities not less than 10 days
prior to such special record date, or may be paid at any time in any other
lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange
on which this series of Securities may be listed, and upon such notice as may
be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. The
principal of, and the interest on, this Security shall be payable at the office
or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of
Manhattan, The City and State of New York in such coin or currency of the
United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts; provided, however, that payment of interest may be
made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the registered holder at
such address as shall appear in the Security Register and that the payment of
principal will only be made upon the surrender of this Security to the Trustee.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as the record holder of this Security is
the Property Trustee (as defined in the Indenture), the payment of the
principal of, and interest on, this Security will be made to such account of
the Property Trustee as may be designated by the Property Trustee.

provisions, (b) authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such
action as may be necessary or appropriate to acknowledge or effectuate the

contained herein and in the Indenture by each holder of Senior Indebtedness and

Obligations, whether now outstanding or hereafter incurred, and waives reliance
by each such Holder upon such provisions.
Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been

shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.

(FORM OF REVERSE OF SECURITY)
This Security is one of a duly authorized series of Securities
of the Company (herein sometimes referred to as the "Securities"), all issued
or to be issued in one or more series under and pursuant to an Indenture dated
as of November , 1996 duly executed and delivered between the Company and
First Trust New York, National Association, a national banking association, as
Trustee (herein referred to as the "Trustee"), as supplemented by the [
] Supplemental Indenture dated as of , 199 between the Company and
the Trustee (said Indenture as so supplemented being hereinafter referred to as
the "Indenture"), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto
reference is hereby made for a description of the rights, limitations of
rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Trustee, the
Company and the holders of the Securities, and, to the extent specifically set
forth in the Indenture, the holders of Senior Indebtedness, Subordinated
Indebtedness and Preferred Securities and creditors in respect of Derivative
Obligations. By the terms of the Indenture, the Securities are issuable in
series which may vary as to amount, date of maturity, rate of interest and in
other
19
respects as in the Indenture provided. This series of Securities is designated
the % Junior Subordinated Debentures due 20 (the "Series % Debentures") and
is limited in aggregate principal amount as specified in said [ ]
Supplemental Indenture.
Except as provided in the next paragraph, the Series %
Debentures may not be redeemed by the Company prior to , 20 . The Company
shall have the right to redeem the Series % Debentures, in whole or in part,
at any time or from time to time on or after , 20 (an "Optional
Redemption"), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount to be
redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid interest, including any Compounded
Interest, thereon to the date of such redemption; provided that at the time of
such election to redeem and at the time of such redemption, the Company shall
have received Federal Reserve Approval therefor. Any redemption pursuant to
this paragraph will be made upon not less than 30 nor more 60 days notice. If
the Series ___% Debentures are only partially redeemed by the Company pursuant
to an Optional Redemption, the Series % Debentures will be redeemed pro rata or
by lot or by any other equitable method chosen by the Trustee; provided that if,
at the time of redemption, any Series % Debentures are represented by a Global
Security, the Depository shall determine by lot the principal amount of such
Series % Debentures held by each holder of Series % Debentures to be
redeemed in accordance with its customary procedures.
If, at any time, a Tax Event (as defined below) shall occur or
be continuing and (i) the Regular Trustees and the Company shall have received
an opinion (a "Redemption Tax Opinion") of nationally recognized independent
tax counsel experienced in such matters that, as a result of such Tax Event,
there is more than an insubstantial risk that the Company would be precluded
from deducting the interest on the Series % Debentures for United States
Federal income tax purposes even if the Series % Debentures were distributed
to the holders of Preferred Securities and Common Securities in liquidation of
such holders' interest in the Trust as set forth in the Declaration of Trust or
(ii) the Regular Trustees shall have been informed by such tax counsel that a
No Recognition Opinion (as defined below) cannot be delivered to the Trust, the
Company shall have the right, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days
notice, to redeem the Series % Debentures in whole or in part for cash at
the Optional
20
Redemption Price within 90 days following the occurrence of such Tax Event;
provided that at the time of such election to redeem and at the time of such
redemption, the Company shall have received Federal Reserve Approval therefor;
provided further that, if at the time there is available to the Company or the
Regular Trustees, on behalf of the Trust, the opportunity to eliminate, within
such 90-day period, the Tax Event by taking some ministerial action
("Ministerial Action"), such as filing a form or making an election, or
pursuing some other similar reasonable measure, which has no adverse effect on
the Trust, the Company or the holders of the Preferred Securities, the Company
or the Regular Trustees, on behalf of the Trust, will pursue such measure in
lieu of redemption; and provided further that the Company shall have no right
to redeem the Series % Debentures while the Regular Trustees, on behalf of
the Trust, are pursuing any such Ministerial Action.
"Tax Event" means that the Regular Trustees and the Company
shall have obtained an opinion of nationally recognized independent tax counsel
experienced in such matters (a "Dissolution Tax Opinion") to the effect that on
or after , 199 , as a result of (a) any amendment to, or change (or
announced prospective change) in, the laws (or any regulations thereunder) of
the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or
therein, (b) any amendment to, or change in, an interpretation or application
of any such laws or regulations by any legislative body, court, governmental
agency or regulatory authority (including the enactment of any legislation and
the publication of any judicial decision or regulatory determination), (c) any
interpretation or pronouncement that provides for a position with respect to
such laws or regulations that differs from the theretofore generally accepted
position or (d) any action taken by any governmental agency or regulatory
authority, which amendment or change is enacted, promulgated, issued or
effective or which interpretation or pronouncement is issued or announced or
which action is taken, in each case on or after , 199 , there is
more than an insubstantial risk that (i) the Trust is, or will be within 90
days of the date thereof, subject to United States Federal income tax with
respect to income accrued or received on the Series % Debentures, (ii) the
Trust is, or will be within 90 days of the date thereof, subject to more than a
de minimis amount of other taxes, duties or other governmental charges or (iii)
interest payable by the Company to the Trust on the Series % Debentures is
not, or within 90 days of the date
21
thereof will not be, deductible by the Company for United States Federal income
tax purposes.
"No Recognition Opinion" means an opinion of nationally
recognized independent tax counsel experienced in such matters, which opinion
may rely on any then applicable published revenue rulings of the Internal
Revenue Service, to the effect that the holders of the Preferred Securities
will not recognize any gain or loss for United States Federal income tax
purposes as a result of a dissolution of the Trust and distribution of the
Series % Debentures as provided in the Declaration of Trust.
If the Series ___% Debentures are only partially redeemed by
the Company pursuant to an Optional Redemption or as a result of a Tax Event as
described above, the ___% Debentures will be redeemed pro rata or by lot or by
any other equitable method chosen by the Trustee. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if a partial redemption of the Series % Debentures would result
in the delisting of the Preferred Securities by any national securities
exchange on which the Preferred Securities are then listed, the Company shall
not be permitted to effect such partial redemption and will only redeem the
Series ___% Debentures in whole.
In the event of redemption of this Series ___% Debenture in
part only, a new Series ___% Debenture or Debentures will be issued for the
unredeemed portion hereof in the name of the holder hereof upon the cancelation
of this Debenture.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company to
shorten or extend the Stated Maturity subject, in each case, to certain
conditions set forth therein, including the receipt by the Company at the time
of the election to shorten or extend such Stated Maturity and at the time of
such shortening or extension, as the case may be, of Federal Reserve Approval
(as defined in the Indenture) therefor.
In case an Event of Default, as defined in the Indenture,
shall have occurred and be continuing, the principal of all of the Series %
Debentures may be declared, and upon such declaration shall become, due and
payable, in the manner, with the effect and subject to the conditions provided
in the Indenture.
22
The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time
of the entire indebtedness of the Series % Debentures upon compliance by the
Company with certain conditions set forth therein.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Company and
the Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Securities of each series affected at the
time Outstanding, as defined in Section 8.04 of the Indenture, (and, in the
case of any series of Securities held as trust assets of a JPM Capital Trust
and with respect to which a Security Exchange has not theretofore occurred,
such consent of holders of the Preferred Securities and the Common Securities
of such JPM Capital Trust as may be required under the Declaration of Trust of
such JPM Capital Trust), to execute supplemental indentures for the purpose of
adding any provisions to or modifying in any manner or eliminating any of the
provisions of the Indenture or of any supplemental indenture or of modifying in
any manner the rights of the holders of any series of Securities; provided,
however, that no such supplemental indenture shall (i) extend the final
maturity of any Securities of any series, or reduce the principal amount
thereof or the method in which amounts of payments of principal or interest
thereon are determined, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of
interest thereon, [or change the coin or currency units based on or related to
currencies (including ECU (as defined in the Indenture) of payment thereof] or
reduce any amount payable upon the redemption thereof, or reduce the amount of
the principal of an Original Issue Discount Security that would be due and
payable upon an acceleration of the maturity thereof pursuant to Section 6.01
or the amount thereof provable in bankruptcy pursuant to Section 6.02, or
impair or affect the right of any holder of the Security to institute suit for
the payment thereof or, if the Securities provide therefor, any right of
repayment at the option of the holder of the Security, without the consent of
the holder of each Security so affected or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage
of Securities, the consent of the holders of which is required any such
supplemental indenture, without the consent of the holders of each Security
(and, in the case of any series of Securities held as trust assets of a JPM
Capital Trust and with respect to which a Security Exchange has not theretofore
occurred, such consent of the holders of the Preferred Securities and the
Common Securities of such JPM Capital Trust as may be required under the
Declaration of
23
Trust of such JPM Capital Trust) so affected thereby. The Indenture also
contains provisions permitting the holders of a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the Securities of a series at the time outstanding affected thereby
(subject, in the case of any series of Securities held as trust assets of a JPM
Capital Trust and with respect to which a Securities Exchange has not
theretofore occurred, to such consent of holders of Preferred Securities and
Common Securities of such JPM Capital Trust as may be required under the
Declaration of Trust of such JPM Capital Trust), on behalf of the holders of
the Securities of such series, to waive any past default in the performance of
any of the covenants contained in the Indenture, or established pursuant to the
Indenture with respect to such series and its consequences, except a default in
the payment of the principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any of the
Debentures of such series. Any such consent or waiver by the registered holder
of this Series % Debenture (unless revoked as provided in the Indenture)
shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders
and owners of this Series % Debenture and of any Security issued in
exchange herefor or in place hereof (whether by registration of transfer or
otherwise), irrespective of whether or not any notation of such consent or
waiver is made upon this Series % Debenture.
Subject to Section 13.11 of the Indenture, no reference herein
to the Indenture (other than such Section) and no provision of this Series
% Debenture or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and
premium, if any, and interest on this Series % Debenture at the time and
place at the rate and in the money herein prescribed.
So long as the Company is not in default in the payment of
interest on the Series % Debentures, the Company shall have the right, at any
time during the term of the Series % Debentures, from time to time to defer
the interest payment period of the Series % Debentures for a period not
exceeding 20 consecutive quarterly interest periods (a "Deferral Period");
provided, however, that at the end of any such period the Company shall pay all
interest accrued and unpaid thereon, together with any Compounded Interest.
During any Deferral Period, the Company shall not declare or pay any dividends
on, or redeem, purchase, acquire or make a distribution or liquidation payment
with respect to, any of its common stock
24
or preferred stock, or make any payments on guarantees with respect thereto;
provided, however, that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to (i)
dividends, redemptions, purchases, acquisitions, distributions or payments made
by the Company by way of issuance of shares of its capital stock, (ii) payments
of accrued dividends by the Company upon the redemption, exchange or conversion
of any preferred stock of the Company as may be outstanding from time to time
in accordance with the terms of such preferred stock or (iii) cash payments
made by the Company in lieu of delivering fractional shares upon the
redemption, exchange or conversion of any preferred stock of the Company as may
be outstanding from time to time in accordance with the terms of such preferred
stock. Prior to the termination of any Deferral Period, the Company may pay
all or any portion of the interest accrued on the Series % Debentures on any
Interest Payment Date to holders of record on the regular record date for such
Interest Payment Date or from time to time further extend such Deferral Period;
provided that such Deferral Period together with all such previous and further
extensions thereof may not exceed 20 consecutive quarterly interest periods.
Upon the termination of any Deferral Period and upon the payment of all accrued
and unpaid interest then due, together with Compounded Interest, the Company
may select a new Deferral Period. No interest shall be due and payable during
a Deferral Period, except at the end thereof. At the end of any Deferral
Period, the Company shall pay all interest accrued and unpaid on the Series
% Debentures, including any Compounded Interest which shall be payable to the
holders in whose names the Series % Debentures are registered on the
Security Register on the regular record date for the first Interest Payment
Date occurring on or after the end of the Deferral Period.

limitations therein set forth, this Debenture is transferable by the registered
holder hereof on the Security Register of the Company, upon surrender of this
Series % Debenture for registration of transfer at the office or agency of
the Company designated for such purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City

payable in relation thereto.
Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of this
Security, the Company, the Trustee, any paying agent and any Security registrar

than the Security registrar) for the purpose of receiving payment of or on
account of the principal hereof and interest due hereon and for all other
purposes, and neither the Company nor the Trustee nor any paying agent nor any
Security registrar shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

based thereon or hereon, or otherwise in respect thereof or hereof shall be had
against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or
