4¾% FIXED/FLOATING RATE CALLABLE SUBORDINATED NOTES, DUE 2019
BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION,
a Delaware corporation (herein called the "Corporation," which term includes
any successor corporation under the Indenture referred to on the reverse
hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to The Bank of New
York Depository (Nominees) Limited, or registered assigns, the principal
sum of ONE BILLION EUROS (€1,000,000,000)
on May 6, 2019 (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to that date).
The Corporation will pay interest on such principal amount at (1) a fixed
rate of 4¾% per annum from May 6, 2004 to, but excluding May 6,
2014, and (2) a floating rate per annum equal to three-month EURIBOR (as
defined below), plus the Spread of 1.46%. If the date hereof is after an
Interest Payment Date for the Notes, this Note shall bear interest from
such Interest Payment Date; provided, however, that if the Corporation
shall default in the payment of interest due on such Interest Payment Date,
then this Note shall bear interest from the next preceding Interest Payment
Date to which interest has been paid, or, if no interest has been paid
on the Notes, from May 6, 2004.
Interest on this Note will accrue during the fixed rate period from the Original Issue Date to, but excluding, May 6, 2014. Interest will be payable annually to each May 6, commencing May 6, 2005. During the fixed rate period, interest payments will be made to the persons in whose name this Note is registered on the April 30 preceding the Interest Payment Date. Interest Payments on this Note during the fixed rate period will be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days in the interest period divided by 365 or 366, as applicable.
Interest on this Note will accrue during the
floating rate period from May 6, 2014 to, but excluding, May 6, 2019 unless
redeemed on May 6, 2014. The interest rate for each interest period during
the floating rate period will be adjusted quarterly and is equal to three-month
EURIBOR plus 1.46%. Interest will be payable quarterly on each February
6, May 6, August 6 and November 6, commencing August 6, 2014. During the
floating rate period, interest payments will be made to the persons in
whose name this Note is registered on the designated record date:
Interest Payment Date | Record Date |
February 6 | January 31 |
May 6 | April 30 |
August 6 | July 31 |
November 6 | October 31 |
If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), the interest due on such date shall be the following day that is a Business Day (and no interest will accrue as a result of that postponement); and if the Maturity Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, principal or interest payable with respect to such Maturity Date will be paid on the next Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on such Maturity Date, and no additional interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Maturity Date.
An interest period is the period beginning on an Interest Payment Date and ending on the date immediately preceding the next following Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. The interest rate on this Note in effect for each interest period will be determined by the Calculation Agent using three-month EURIBOR on the Interest Determination Date for that interest period. The Calculation Agent will add three-month EURIBOR as determined on the Interest Determination Date to the Spread to calculate the interest rate in effect for the applicable interest period. Interest will be calculated using the actual number of days in an interest period and a 360-day year.
"EURIBOR" means the offered rate for deposits in euro having a maturity of three months, in amounts of at least €1,000,000,000, as that rate appears on Moneyline Telerate page 248 at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the Interest Determination Date. If Moneyline Telerate Page 248 is replaced by another service or ceases to exist, the Calculation
2
Agent will use the replacing service or any other service that may be nominated by the person sponsoring the information appearing there for the purpose of displaying offered rates for deposits in euro.
If no offered rate appears on Moneyline Telerate Page 248 on an Interest Determination Date at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, then the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Corporation, will select four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market and will request each of their principal Euro-zone offices to provide a quotation of the rate at which three-month deposits in euro in amounts of at least €1,000,000 are offered by it to prime banks in the Euro-zone interbank market, on that date and at that time, that is representative of a single transaction at that time. If at least two quotations are provided, XXXXXXX will be arithmetic average of the quotations provided.
If at least two quotations are not provided, the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Corporation, will select four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market and will request each of them to provide a quotation of the rate offered by them, at approximately 11:00 a.m., Brussels time, on the Interest Determination Date, for loans in euro to prime banks in the Euro-zone interbank market for a three-month period commencing on that date and in amounts of at least €1,000,000,000 that is representative of a single transaction at that time. If at least three quotations are provided, XXXXXXX will be the arithmetic average of the quotations provided.
If three quotations are not provided, the rate of EURIBOR for the next interest period will be equal to the rate of EURIBOR for the then current interest period.
The Euro-zone is the region comprised of the member states of the European Union that have adopted the euro as their single currency.
The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes evidencing all or a portion of the same debt as this Note) is registered at the close of business on the record date for such Interest Payment Date, whether or not a Business Day. "Business Day" means any weekday that (1) is not a legal holiday in New, New York, Charlotte, North Carolina or Luxembourg, (2) is not a day on which banking institutions in those cities are authorized or required by law or regulation to be closed, and (3) is a day on which the Trans-European Automated Real-Time Gross Settlement Express Transfer ("TARGET") System or any successor system is open for business.
The principal of and interest on this Note are payable in immediately available funds in such coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, at the office or agency of the Corporation in New York or such other places that the Corporation shall designate as provided in the Indenture; provided, however, that interest may be paid, at the option of the Corporation, by check mailed to the person entitled thereto at his address last appearing on the registry books of the Corporation relating to the Notes. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, payments of principal of and interest payable on the Maturity Date will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated account maintained in London upon (i) receipt of written notice by the Issuing and Paying Agent (as described on the reverse hereof) from the registered holder hereof not less than one Business
3
Day prior to the due date of such principal and (ii) presentation of this Note to the Issuing and Paying Agent, at The Bank of New York, 48th Floor, Xxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, X00 0XX. Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for shall be payable as provided in the Indenture.
Reference is made to the further provisions of this Note set forth on the reverse hereof, which shall have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon
has been executed by the Trustee or by an authenticating agent on behalf
of the Trustee by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to
any benefit under such Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

SECTION 4. Defeasance. The provisions of Article Fourteen of the Indenture do apply to Securities of this Series.
SECTION 5. Payment of Additional Amounts. Subject to the exemptions and limitations set forth below, the Corporation will pay additional amounts to the beneficial owner of this Note that is a "Non-United States person," as defined below, in order to ensure that every net payment on such Note will not be less, due to payment of United States withholding tax, than the amount then due and payable. For this purpose, a "net payment" on the Note means a payment by the Corporation or any paying agent, including payment of principal and interest,
7
after deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge of the United States. These additional amounts will constitute additional interest on the Note.
The Corporation will not be required to pay additional amounts, however, in any of the circumstances described in items (1) through (13) below.
(1) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of the Note: (a) having a relationship with the United States as a citizen, resident, or otherwise;
(b) having had such a relationship in the past; or
(c) being considered as having had such a relationship. (2) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of the Note: (a) being treated as present in or engaged in a trade or business in the United States;
(b) being treated as having been present in or engaged in a trade or business in the United States in the past;
(c) having or having had a permanent establishment in the United States; or
(d) having or having had a qualified business unit which has the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. (3) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of the Note being or having been a: (a) personal holding company;
(b) foreign personal holding company;
(c) foreign private foundation or other foreign tax-exempt organization;
(d) passive foreign investment company;
(e) controlled foreign corporation; or
(f) corporation which has accumulated earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax. (4) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of the Note owning or having owned, actually or constructively,
8
10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of the Corporation's stock entitled to vote;
(5) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of the beneficial owner of the Note being a bank extending credit under a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of business.
For purposes of items (1) through (5) above, "beneficial owner" includes a fiduciary, settlor, partner, member, shareholder, or beneficiary of the holder if the holder is an estate, trust, partnership, limited liability company, corporation, or other entity, or a person holding a power over an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder.

(d) another fiscally transparent entity; or(a) a fiduciary;(b) a partnership;
(c) a limited liability company;
(e) not the sole beneficial owner of the Note, or any portion of the Note. However, this exception to the obligation to pay additional amounts will only apply to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor in relation to the fiduciary, or a beneficial owner, partner or member of the partnership, limited liability company, or other fiscally transparent entity, would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the beneficiary, settlor, partner, beneficial owner, partner, or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment.
(7) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner of the Note or any other person to comply with applicable certification, identification, documentation or other information reporting requirements. This exception to the obligation to pay additional amounts will apply only if compliance with such reporting requirements is required as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment or other governmental charge by statute or regulation of the United States or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United States is a party.
(8) Additional amounts will
not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax,
assessment, or other governmental charge that is collected or imposed by
any method other than by withholding from a payment on the Note by the
Corporation or any paying agent.
9
(9) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of a change in law, regulation, or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later.
(10) Additional amounts will not be payable if a payment on the Note is reduced as a result of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld by reason of the presentation by the beneficial owner of the Note for payment more than 30 days after the date on which such payment becomes due or is duly provided for, whichever occurs later.
