The Notes will be issued pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of October 20, 2006, as supplemented by the Amended and Restated BAseries Indenture Supplement, dated as of June 10, 2006, and a Terms Document having the date stated in the applicable Terms Agreement (as so amended and supplemented, the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and The Bank of New York, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Indenture Trustee”). The Issuer is operated pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of October 20, 2006 (the “Trust Agreement”), between the Company, as Beneficiary and as transferor (in such capacity, the “Transferor”), and Wilmington Trust Company, as owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”). The Notes will be secured by certain assets of the Issuer, including the Collateral Certificate referred to below (collectively, the “Collateral”).

The Company has transferred and proposes to continue to transfer credit card receivables to the BA Master Credit Card Trust II (the “Master Trust”) pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of October 20, 2006 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), as supplemented by the Second Amended and Restated Series 2001-D Supplement, dated as of October 20, 2006 (the “Series Supplement”) (references herein to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall mean, unless otherwise specified, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as supplemented by the Series Supplement), between the Transferor, the Bank as servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), and The Bank of New York, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Master Trust Trustee”). The assets of the Master Trust include, among other things, certain amounts due on a pool of MasterCard,^{^®} VISA^{^®} and American Express^{^®} revolving credit card accounts of the Bank (the “Receivables”), proceeds of credit insurance policies relating to the Receivables and the benefit of a Credit Enhancement (as hereinafter defined), if any.

The Notes designated in the applicable Terms Agreement will be sold in a public offering by the Issuer through Banc of America Securities LLC, as underwriter, or through certain underwriters which include Banc of America Securities LLC, one or more of which may with Banc of America Securities LLC act as a representative of such underwriters listed on Schedule I to the applicable Terms Agreement (any underwriter through which Notes are sold shall be referred to herein as an “Underwriter” or, collectively, all such Underwriters may be referred to as the “Underwriters”; any representative thereof may be referred to herein as the “Representative,” which, if the context herein does require, shall include Banc of America Securities LLC in its capacity as an Underwriter of any Notes or as a Representative).

(iv) Under the North Carolina Limited Liability Company Act (the “LLC Act”), on application to a court of competent jurisdiction, a judgment creditor of a member may be able to charge the membership interest in BACCS owned by such member for the payment of the unsatisfied judgment, plus interest.

(v) No approval, authorization or other action by, or filing with, any governmental authority of the United States of America or the State of New York having jurisdiction over the banking or trust powers of the Indenture Trustee is required in connection with the execution and delivery by the Indenture Trustee of the Indenture or the performance by the Indenture Trustee thereunder;

(vi) To the best knowledge of such counsel, there is no action, suit or proceeding pending or threatened against the Indenture Trustee (as Indenture Trustee under the Indenture or in its individual capacity) before or by any governmental authority that if adversely decided, would materially adversely affect the ability of the Indenture Trustee to perform its obligations under the Indenture; and

(vii) The execution, delivery and performance by the Indenture Trustee of the Indenture will not subject any of the property or assets of the Issuer, or any portion thereof, to the imposition of any lien which may be asserted against the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as Indenture Trustee.

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company and the Bank, their directors, each of their officers who signed the Registration Statement, the Issuer and each person, if any, who controls the Company, the Bank or the Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this Section, as incurred, but only with respect to (i) untrue statements or omissions, or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Registration Statement or the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company, the Bank or the Issuer by such Underwriter through the Representative expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto and (ii) the failure upon the part of such Underwriter to convey (within the meaning of Rule 159 under the Act) the Preliminary Prospectus prior to the Time of Sale to any investor with whom such Underwriter entered into a contract of sale at such Time of Sale.

(c) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Company and the Bank, their directors, each of their officers who signed the Registration Statement, the Issuer and each person, if any, who controls the Company, the Bank or the Issuer within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense, as incurred, arising

out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus (as defined in Section 16(a) herein), or arising out of or 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 not misleading; provided, however, that such Underwriter will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, liability, claim, damage or expense arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in any Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with (i) any written information furnished to such Underwriter by the Company, the Bank or the Issuer expressly for use therein or (ii) the Preliminary Prospectus or Prospectus, which information was not corrected by information subsequently provided by the Company, the Bank or the Issuer to such Underwriter prior to the time of use of such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus.

(d) Each indemnified party shall give prompt notice to each indemnifying party of any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity agreement; provided, however, that the indemnifying party is not materially prejudiced by such failure to notify. An indemnifying party may participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action. In no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more than one counsel separate from their own counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances.

(e) For clarification purposes, in this Section 10 only, it is understood that the terms “Preliminary Prospectus” and “Prospectus” include static pool information required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 1105 of Regulation AB under the Act, without regard to whether such information is deemed to be a part of a prospectus under Item 1105(d) of Regulation AB under the Act.

11. In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in Section 10 is for any reason held to be unavailable other than in accordance with its terms, the Company, the Bank and the Issuer and the Underwriters shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity agreement incurred by the Company, the Bank and the Issuer and the Underwriters, as incurred, in such proportions that the Underwriters are responsible for that portion represented by the percentage that the underwriting discount and commissions bear to the initial public offering price appearing thereon and the Company, the Bank and the Issuer are jointly and severally responsible for the balance; provided, however, that no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section, each person, if any, who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, each director of the Company or the Bank, and each person, if any, who controls the Company or the Bank within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company or the Bank.

12. Notwithstanding anything herein contained, this Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice given to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the applicable Terms Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) there has occurred any material adverse change or any development involving a prospective material adverse change, in or affecting the general affairs, business, prospects, management, financial position, stockholders’ equity or results of operation of the Bank, the Company or Bank of America Corporation, and their respective subsidiaries (if any), taken as a whole, the effect of which in the reasonable judgment of the Representative materially impairs the investment quality of the Notes; (ii) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or by, as the case may be, the New York Stock Exchange; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities in New York shall have been declared by either Federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities in which the United States is involved, any declaration of war by Congress or any other substantial national or international calamity or emergency if, in the reasonable judgment of the Representative, the effect of any such outbreak, escalation, declaration, calamity or emergency makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with completion of the sale and payment for the Notes.

13. If any Underwriter defaults in its obligations to purchase Notes hereunder and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes that such defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase does not exceed 25% of the total principal amount of such Notes, the Representative may make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the purchase of such Notes by other persons, including the non-defaulting Underwriters, but if no such arrangements are made by the Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall be obligated, in proportion to their commitments hereunder, to purchase the Notes that such defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase. If any Underwriter so defaults and the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with respect to which such default or defaults occur exceeds 25% of the total principal amount of such Notes and arrangements satisfactory to the Representative and the Company for the purchase of such Notes by other persons are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement will terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except as provided in Section 10 of this Agreement. Nothing herein will relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

14. If for any reason other than as set forth in Section 13 of this Agreement the purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated, the Company shall remain responsible for the expenses to be paid or reimbursed by it pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement and the respective obligations of the Bank, the Company, the Issuer, and the Underwriters pursuant to Sections 10 and 11 of this Agreement shall remain in effect. If the purchase of the Notes by the Underwriters is not consummated for any reason other than solely because of the occurrence of any event specified in clauses (ii) (iii) or (iv) of Section 12 of this Agreement, the Company will

reimburse the Underwriters for all out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) reasonably incurred by them in connection with the offering of the Notes.

15. Any action by the Underwriters hereunder may be taken by the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters, and any such action taken by the Representative shall be binding upon the Underwriters. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices to the Underwriters shall be given to the Representative, Banc of America Securities LLC, at [ADDRESS], or to such other address as the Representative may designate in writing to the Bank, the Company and the Issuer.

16. Other than the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus, each Underwriter, severally, represents, warrants and covenants to the Bank, the Company and the Issuer that it has not prepared, made, used, authorized, approved, disseminated or referred to and will not prepare, make, use, authorize, approve, disseminate or refer to any “written communication” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) that constitutes an offer to sell or solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes, including, but not limited to any “ABS informational and computational materials” as defined in Item 1101(a) of Regulation AB under the Act unless such Underwriter has obtained the prior written approval of the Bank, the Company and the Issuer; provided, however, that each Underwriter may prepare and convey to one or more of its potential investors one or more “written communications” (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) containing no more than the following: information contemplated by Rule 134 under the Act and included or to be included in the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus, as well as a column or other entry showing the status of the subscriptions for the Notes and/or expected pricing parameters of the Notes (each such written communication, an “Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus”).

(b) Each Underwriter severally represents, warrants and agrees with the Bank, the Issuer and the Company that:

(i) each Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus prepared by it will not, as of the date such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus was conveyed or delivered to any prospective purchaser of Notes, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit any material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that no Underwriter makes such representation, warranty or agreement to the extent such misstatements or omissions were the result of any inaccurate information which was included in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any written information furnished to the related Underwriter by the Issuer, the Bank or the Company expressly for use therein, which information was not corrected by information subsequently provided by the Issuer, the Bank or the Company to the related Underwriter prior to the time of use of such Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus;

(ii) each Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus prepared by it shall contain a legend substantially in the form of and in compliance with Rule 433(c)(2)(i) of the Act, and shall otherwise conform to any requirements for “free writing prospectuses” under the Act;

(iii) each Underwriter Free Writing Prospectus prepared by it shall be delivered to the Issuer, the Bank and the Company no later than the time of first use and, unless otherwise agreed to by the Issuer, the Bank and the Company and the related Underwriter, such delivery shall occur no later than the close of business for the Company (Eastern Time) on the date of first use; provided, however, if the date of first use is not a Business Day, such delivery shall occur no later than the close of business for the Company (Eastern Time) on the first Business Day preceding such date of first use.

17. Each Underwriter, severally, represents that it will not, at any time that such Underwriter is acting as an “underwriter” (as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Act) with respect to the Notes, transfer, deposit or otherwise convey any Notes into a trust or other type of special purpose vehicle that issues securities or other instruments backed in whole or in part by, or that represents interests in, such Notes without the prior written consent of the Company.

18. Each Underwriter, severally, represents and agrees (i) that it did not enter into any contract of sale for any Notes prior to the Time of Sale and (ii) that it will, at any time that such Underwriter is acting as an “underwriter” (as defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the Act) with respect to the Notes, convey to each investor to whom Notes are sold by it during the period prior to the filing of the final Prospectus (as notified to the Underwriters by the Company), at or prior to the applicable time of any such contract of sale with respect to such investor, the Preliminary Prospectus.

19. Each Underwriter, severally, represents and agrees that it has not and will not, directly or indirectly, offer, sell or deliver any of the Notes or distribute the Prospectus or any other offering materials relating to the Notes in or from any jurisdiction except under circumstances that will, to the best of its knowledge and belief, result in compliance by it with any applicable laws and regulations thereof and that will, to the best of its knowledge and belief, not impose any obligations on the Company, the Bank or the Issuer except as set forth herein.

20. This Agreement shall become effective upon execution and delivery of the applicable Terms Agreement.

21. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Bank, the Company, the Issuer, the Underwriters, any controlling persons referred to

herein and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. No purchaser of Notes from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

22. Each of the Bank, the Issuer and the Company acknowledges and agrees that (i) the purchase and sale of the Notes pursuant to this Agreement, including the determination of the public offering price of the Notes and any related discounts and commissions, is an arm’s-length commercial transaction between the Bank, the Issuer and the Company, on the one hand, and each of the several Underwriters, on the other hand, and the Bank, the Issuer and the Company are capable of evaluating and understanding and understand and accept the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby and the process leading to such transaction each Underwriter is and has been acting solely as a principal and is not the agent or fiduciary of the Bank, the Issuer, the Company or their respective affiliates, stockholders, creditors or employees or any other party; (iii) none of the Underwriters has assumed or will assume an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Bank, the Issuer or the Company with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether such Underwriter has advised or is currently advising the Bank, the Issuer or the Company on other matters) or any other obligation to the Bank, the Issuer or the Company except the obligations expressly set forth in this Agreement; (iv) the several Underwriters and their respective affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Bank, the Issuer and the Company and that the several Underwriters have no obligation to disclose to the Bank, the Issuer or the Company any of such interests by virtue of any relationship hereunder; and (v) the Underwriters have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby and the Bank, the Issuer and the Company have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate.

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Bank, the Issuer, the Company and the several Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the transaction contemplated hereby. The Bank, the Issuer and the Company hereby waive and release, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims that the Bank, the Issuer or the Company, respectively, may have against the several Underwriters with respect to any breach or alleged breach of fiduciary duty with respect thereto.

This Agreement may be signed in counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

If the foregoing is in accordance with your understanding of our agreement, kindly sign and return to us the enclosed duplicate hereof, whereupon it will become a binding agreement between the Bank, the Company, the Issuer and the Underwriters in accordance with its terms.
