"Delaware Trustee"), The Bank of New York Mellon, a New York banking
corporation, as property trustee (the "Property Trustee," and together with the
Delaware Trustee, the "Issuer Trustees"), and Xxxxx X. Xxxxx and Xxxxxx X. Park,
individuals, as administrators (together, the "Administrators"). The
Depositor, the Issuer Trustees and the Administrators hereby agree as
follows:
1. The
trust created hereby shall be known as Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Capital Trust XI (the
"Issuer Trust"), in which name the Issuer Trustees or the Depositor, to the
extent provided herein, may conduct the business of the Issuer Trust, make and
execute contracts, and xxx and be sued.
2. The
Depositor hereby assigns, transfers, conveys and sets over to the Issuer Trust
the sum of $10. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the
Issuer Trust created hereby constitute a statutory trust under Chapter 38 of
Title 12 of the Delaware Code, 12 Del. C. § 3801, et seq. (the "Statutory
Trust Act"), and that this document constitute the governing instrument of the
Issuer Trust. The Issuer Trustees are hereby authorized and directed
to execute and file a certificate of trust with the Delaware Secretary of State
in accordance with the provisions of the Statutory Trust Act.
3. An
amended and restated Trust Agreement satisfactory to each party to it and
substantially in the form to be included as an exhibit to the 1933 Act
Registration Statement (as herein defined), or in such other form as the parties
thereto may approve, will be entered into to provide for the contemplated
operation of the Issuer Trust created hereby and the issuance of the Capital or
Preferred Securities and Common Securities, if any, referred to
therein. Prior to the execution and delivery of such amended and
restated Trust Agreement, the Issuer Trustees shall not have any duty or
obligation hereunder or with respect of the trust estate, except as otherwise
required by applicable law or as may be necessary to obtain prior to such
execution and delivery any licenses, consents or approvals required by
applicable law or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Issuer Trustees may take all actions deemed proper as are necessary to effect
the transactions contemplated herein. It is the intent of the parties
hereto that the Administrators shall not be trustees with respect to the Issuer
Trust and this Trust Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with
such intent.

Exchange or such other exchanges or securities markets, FINRA, or the securities
or "Blue Sky" laws or foreign laws or regulations to be executed on behalf of
the Issuer Trust by the Administrators, the Administrators, in their capacity as
administrators of the Issuer Trust, are hereby authorized and directed to join
in any such filing and to execute on behalf of the Issuer Trust any and all of
the foregoing, it being understood that the Administrators, in their capacity as
administrators of the Issuer Trust, shall not be required to join in any such
filing or execute on behalf of the Issuer Trust any such document unless
required by the rules and regulations of the Commission, the New York Stock
Exchange or such other exchanges or securities markets, FINRA, or the securities

foregoing, the Depositor is entitled to appoint or remove without cause any
trustee or administrator of the Issuer Trust at any time. Any trustee
or administrator of the Issuer Trust may resign upon thirty days' prior notice
