Ladies and Gentlemen:
Capital One Bank, a banking association chartered under the laws of
the Commonwealth of Virginia (the "Bank"), desires to amend the Distribution
Agreement, dated
April 30, 1996, entered into with respect to the distribution of the Bank's
Deposit Notes due from 30 days to 30 years from date of issue (the "Notes"), and
made between the Bank and the Agents party thereto (which agreement, as amended
from time to time, is herein referred to as the "Distribution Agreement") to add
BancAmerica Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Securities Inc., and NationsBanc
Xxxxxxxxxx Securities LLC (the "Additional Agents") as Agents pursuant to
Section 1(e) of the Distribution Agreement and to remove Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co. as
an Agent under, and a party to, the Distribution Agreement.
Each of the Additional Agents will serve as an Agent and be a party to
the Distribution Agreement in connection with the Notes, and will be vested with
all of the authority, rights, powers, duties and obligations of an Agent as if
originally named as an Agent under the Distribution Agreement.
Except as modified hereby, all of the terms and conditions of the
Distribution Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby
confirmed in all respects.
Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein shall
have the meanings attributed thereto in the Distribution Agreement.
Section 1. Amendments to the Distribution Agreement.
The Distribution Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(a) From and after the date hereof, each of BancAmerica
Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Securities Inc., and NationsBanc Xxxxxxxxxx
Securities LLC (the "Additional Agents") shall be an Agent for all
purposes of the Distribution Agreement, the term "Agent" shall be
deemed to include BancAmerica Xxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxxx, Xxxxx Securities
Inc., and NationsBanc Xxxxxxxxxx Securities LLC whenever used in the
Distribution Agreement, with such conforming changes as may be
necessary, and Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co. shall no longer be an Agent under,
or a party to, the Distribution Agreement. By its execution of this
Amendment, each of the Additional Agents agrees to be bound by, and
comply with, all of the provisions of the Distribution Agreement
applicable to the Agents thereunder. The obligations of the Agents
under the Distribution Agreement are several and not joint, and no
Agent shall be responsible for the obligations of any other Agent, nor
will the failure of any Agent to perform its obligations under the
Distribution Agreement relieve any other Agent from performance of its
obligations under the Distribution Agreement.
(b) In consideration of the Bank appointing each of the
Additional Agents as an Agent under the Distribution Agreement in
connection with the Notes, each of the Additional Agents xxxxxx agrees
to perform all of the duties and obligations assumed by an Agent under
the Distribution Agreement and agrees to be bound by, and comply with,
all of the provisions of the Distribution Agreement as fully as though
such Additional Agent were a signatory to the Distribution Agreement.
