The form provides that interest will accrue from the Original Issue Date. In the event a series of Notes is reopened, interest will accrue from the Original Issue Date for all tranches of Notes of that series. However, in the event a series of Notes is reopened, the authentication date for each tranche of Notes will be the date that tranche of Notes is settled, which may be different from the Original Issue Date.

“Maturity,” when used herein, means the date on which the principal of this Note or an installment of principal becomes due and payable in full in accordance with the terms of this Note and of the Indenture, whether at the Stated Maturity Date or by declaration of acceleration, call for redemption, prepayment at the holder’s option or otherwise.

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 CEDE & CO., as nominee for The Depository Trust Company, or its registered assigns, the principal sum of DOLLARS² on the Stated Maturity Date³ specified above (except to the extent redeemed or repaid prior to the Stated Maturity Date). The Corporation will pay interest on such principal amount at a rate per annum equal to the Initial Interest Rate specified above until the Initial Interest Reset Date specified above and thereafter at a rate determined in accordance with the provisions on the reverse hereof, until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for payment. The Corporation will pay interest on the Interest Payment Dates specified above, commencing with the first Interest Payment Date succeeding the Original Issue Date specified above, unless the Original Issue Date occurs between a Regular Record Date (as defined below) and the next Interest Payment Date, in which case interest shall be payable commencing on the Interest Payment Date following the next Regular Record Date, and shall be payable on each subsequent Interest Payment Date and at Maturity (the “Maturity Date”).

Interest on this Note will accrue from the Original Issue Date until the principal amount is paid or duly provided for and will be computed as hereinafter described. Interest payable on this Note on any Interest Payment Date or on the Maturity Date will include interest accrued from and including the preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the Original Issue Date specified above if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date or Maturity Date, as the case may be. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day (as defined below), such Interest Payment Date shall be the following day that is a Business Day, except that if the Base Rate is LIBOR, if such next Business Day falls in the next calendar month, such Interest Payment Date will be the preceding day that is a Business Day; 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.

This form provides for Notes denominated in, and principal and interest payable in, U.S. dollars. The form., as used, may be modified to provide, alternatively, for Notes denominated in, and principal and interest and other amount, if any, payable in a foreign currency or currency unit, with the specific terms and provisions, including any limitations on the issuances of Notes in such currency, additional provisions regarding paying and other agents and additional provisions regarding the calculation and payment of such currency, set forth therein.

The principal so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, at Maturity 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 at Maturity. Any such interest or principal not punctually paid or duly provided for shall be payable as provided in the Indenture.⁴ “Business Day” means any weekday that is not a legal holiday in New York, New York, Charlotte, North Carolina, or any other place of payment with respect to this Note and that is not a day on which banking institutions in those cities are authorized or required by law or regulation to be closed. “Business Day” also means, with respect to Notes denominated in LIBOR, a London Business Day.

BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATION

MEDIUM-TERM SUBORDINATED NOTE,

SERIES

(Floating Rate)

SECTION 1. General. This Note is one of a duly authorized series of Securities of the Corporation unlimited in aggregate principal amount (herein called the “Notes”) issued and to be issued under an Indenture dated as of January 1, 1995 (herein called the “Indenture”), between the Corporation (successor to NationsBank Corporation) and The Bank of New York, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 28, 1998, to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Corporation, the Trustee and the holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. This Note is also one of the Notes designated as the Corporation’s Subordinated Medium-Term Notes, Series , initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $ . The Trustee initially shall act as Security Registrar, Transfer Agent, and Issuing and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes. The Notes may bear different dates, mature at different times, bear interest at different rates and vary in such other ways as are provided in the Indenture.

SECTION 2. Interest Rate Calculations.

(a) General. As set forth above, this Note may have either or both of the following: (i) a maximum numerical interest rate limitation, or ceiling, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period (“Maximum Interest Rate”); or (ii) a minimum numerical interest rate limitation, or floor, on the rate at which interest may accrue during any interest period (“Minimum Interest Rate”); provided, however, that the interest rate on this Note will in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

The Base Rate (as defined herein) with respect to this Note may be (i) the federal funds rate, (ii) LIBOR, (iii) the prime rate, (iv) the treasury rate or (v) such other rate as is described on the face hereof and on a rider to this Note.

Except as described below, this Note will bear interest at the rate determined by reference to the appropriate interest rate basis (the “Base Rate”) and Index Maturity, each as specified above, (i) plus or minus the Spread, if any, specified above and/or (ii) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified above. The interest rate in effect during an Interest Reset Period will be the rate determined on the calculation date by reference to the Interest Determination Date (as determined in the next paragraph).

The “calculation date” pertaining to any Interest Determination Date will be the date by which the Calculation Agent specified above computes the amount of interest owed on this Note for the related Interest Period. The “calculation date” will be the earlier of (a) the tenth calendar day after the related Interest Determination Date or, if that day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day or (b) the Business Day immediately preceding the applicable Interest

Payment Date or the Stated Maturity Date or the date of redemption or the date of prepayment, as the case may be.

The interest rate in effect on each day shall be (a) if such day is an Interest Reset Date, as specified above, the interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date pertaining to such Interest Reset Date or (b) if such day is not an Interest Reset Date, the interest rate determined as of the Interest Determination Date pertaining to the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date, provided that (i) the interest rate in effect from the Original Issue Date to the initial Interest Reset Date shall be the Initial Interest Rate specified above, and (ii) the interest rate in effect for the 10 calendar days immediately prior to the Maturity Date shall be the rate in effect on the 10th calendar day preceding such Maturity Date. If any Interest Reset Date otherwise would be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date shall be postponed to the next day that is a Business Day, except that if the Base Rate specified above is LIBOR and if such next Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.

The “Interest Determination Date” with respect to any Note that has as its Base Rate the federal funds rate or the prime rate will be the Business Day immediately preceding the related Interest Reset Date. The “Interest Determination Date” with respect to any Note that has LIBOR as its Base Rate will be the second London Banking Day preceding the related Interest Reset Date. The “Interest Determination Date” with respect to any Note that has as its Base Rate the treasury rate will be the day of the week in which the related Interest Reset Date falls on which Treasury bills of the Index Maturity specified on the face of this Note normally would be auctioned; provided, however, that if an auction is held on the Friday of the week preceding the related Interest Reset Date, the related “Interest Determination Date” shall be such preceding Friday; and provided, further, that if an auction is held on any Interest Reset Date then the Interest Reset Date shall instead be the first Business Day following such auction.

For a Note whose interest rate is determined by reference to two or more Base Rates, the “Interest Determination Date” shall be the most recent Business Day that is at least two Business Days prior to the applicable Interest Reset Date for the Note on which each Base Rate is applicable.

Accrued interest on this Note is calculated by multiplying the principal amount of the Note by an accrued interest factor. The accrued interest factor is the sum of the interest factors calculated for each day in the period for which accrued interest is being calculated. Unless otherwise indicated herein, the accrued interest factor will be computed and interest will be paid as follows:

(1)

for interest based on the federal funds rate, LIBOR, the prime rate, or any other floating rate other than the treasury rate (as defined below), the daily interest factor will be computed by dividing the interest rate in effect on that day by 360; and

(2)

for interest based on the treasury rate, the daily interest factor will be computed by dividing the interest rate in effect to that day by 365 or 366, as applicable.

All dollar amounts used in or resulting from any calculation on this Note will be rounded to the nearest cent with one-half cent being rounded upward. Unless otherwise specified herein, all percentages resulting from any calculation are rounded to the nearest one hundred-thousandth of a percent, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upward. For example, 9.876545% (or .09876545) will be rounded to 9.87655% (or .0987655).

(b) Determination of Federal Funds Rate. The “federal funds rate” for any Interest Determination Date is the rate on that date for federal funds, as published in H.15(519) prior to 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date for that Interest Determination Date under the heading “Federal Funds (Effective)” and/or displayed on Moneyline Telerate, Inc. (or any successor service) on page 120 (or any other page as may replace the specified page on that service) (“Telerate Page 120”).

The following procedures will be followed if the federal funds rate cannot be determined as described above:

(i) If the above rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date or does not appear on Telerate Page 120, the federal funds rate will be the rate on that Interest Determination Date, as published in H.15 Daily Update, or such other recognized electronic source for the purposes of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Federal Funds (Effective).”

(ii) If the alternate rate described in (i) above is not published in H.15 Daily Update by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the federal funds rate to be the average of the rates for the last transaction in overnight federal funds quoted by three leading brokers of federal funds transactions in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, as of 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on that Interest Determination Date.

(iii) If fewer than three brokers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as mentioned in (ii) above, the federal funds rate will be the federal funds rate in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

(i) On each Interest Determination Date, the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as follows:

(A) If “LIBOR Telerate” is specified on the face of this Note, LIBOR will be the rate for deposits in the LIBOR currency having the Index Maturity described on the face of this Note on the applicable Interest Determination Date, as such rate appears on the designated LIBOR page as of 11:00 A.M., London time, on that Interest Determination Date.

(B) If “LIBOR Reuters” is specified on the face of this Note, LIBOR will be the average of the offered rates for deposits in the LIBOR currency having the Index Maturity described on the face of this Note on the applicable Interest Determination Date, as such rates appear on the designated LIBOR page as of 11:00

A.M., London time, on that Interest Determination Date, if at least two offered rates appear on the designated LIBOR page.

If the face of this Note does not specify “LIBOR Telerate” or “LIBOR Reuters,” the LIBOR rate will be LIBOR Telerate. In addition, if the designated LIBOR page by its terms provides only for a single rate, that single rate will be used regardless of the foregoing provisions requiring more than one rate.

(ii) On any Interest Determination Date on which fewer than the required number of applicable rates appear or no rate appears on the applicable designated LIBOR page, the Calculation Agent will determine LIBOR as follows:

(A) LIBOR will be determined on the basis of the offered rates at which deposits in the LIBOR currency having the Index Maturity described on the face of this Note on the applicable Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative of a single transaction in that market at that time are offered by four major banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on that Interest Determination Date to prime banks in the London interbank market. The Calculation Agent will select the four banks and request the principal London office of each of those banks to provide an offered quotation. If at least two quotations are provided, LIBOR for that Interest Determination Date will be the average of those quotations.

(B) If fewer than two quotations are provided as described in (ii)(A) above, LIBOR will be the average of the rates quoted by three major banks in the Principal Financial Center selected by the Calculation Agent at approximately 11:00 A.M., in the Principal Financial Center, on the Interest Determination Date, for loans to leading European banks in the LIBOR currency having the Index Maturity designated on the face of this Note on the Interest Determination Date, and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in that market at that time. The Calculation Agent will select the three banks referred to in (ii)(A) above.

(C) If fewer than three banks selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described in (ii)(B) above, LIBOR will remain LIBOR then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

(d) Determination of Prime Rate.

(i) The “prime rate” for any Interest Determination Date is the prime rate or base lending rate on that date, as published in H.15(519) by 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the calculation date for that Interest Determination Date under the heading “Bank Prime Loan.”

(ii) The following procedures will be followed if the prime rate cannot be determined as described above:

(A) If the rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date, then the prime rate will be the rate as published in

H.15 Daily Update, or any other recognized electronic source used for the purpose of displaying the applicable rate, under the caption “Bank Prime Loan.”

(B) If the alternative rate described in (d)(ii)(A) above is not published H.15 Daily Update or another recognized electronic source by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the prime rate to be the arithmetic mean of the rates of interest publicly announced by each bank that appears on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1 (as defined below), as that bank’s prime rate or base lending rate as in effect as of 11:00 A.M., New York City time on that Interest Determination Date.

(C) If fewer than four rates appear on the Reuters screen US PRIME 1 for that Interest Determination Date, by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, then the prime rate will be the average of the prime rates furnished in New York City by three substitute banks or trust companies (each organized under the laws of the United States or any of its states and having total equity capital of at least $500,000,000) selected by the Calculation Agent on the Interest Determination Date.

(D) If the banks selected by the Calculation Agent are not quoting as described in (d)(ii)(C) above, the prime rate will remain the prime rate then in effect on the Interest Determination Date.

(iii) “Reuters screen US PRIME 1” means the display designated as page “US PRIME 1” on the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service (or such other page as may replace the US PRIME 1 page on that service for the purpose of displaying prime rates or base lending rates of major United States banks).

(e) Determination of Treasury Rate.

(i) The “treasury rate” for any Interest Determination Date is the rate set at the auction of direct obligations of the United States (“Treasury bills”) having the Index Maturity described on the face of this Note, as published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date for that Interest Determination Date under the heading “U.S. Government Securities—Treasury bills—auction average (investment)” and/or displayed on Moneyline Telerate, Inc. (or any successor service) on page 56 (or any other page as may replace that page on that service) (“Telerate Page 56”) or page 57 (or any other page as may replace that page on that service) (“Telerate Page 57”).

(ii) The following procedures will be followed if the treasury rate cannot be determined as described in (e)(i) above:

(A) If the rate is not published in H.15(519) by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, or displayed on Telerate Page 56 or Telerate Page 57 on the calculation date, the treasury rate will be the auction average rate (expressed as a bond equivalent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) as otherwise announced by the United States Department of the Treasury on the calculation date.

(B) If the results of the most recent auction of Treasury bills having the Index Maturity described on the face of this Note are not published or announced as described in (e)(ii)(A) above by 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the calculation date, or if no auction is held on the Interest Determination Date, then the Calculation Agent will determine the treasury rate to be a yield to maturity (expressed as a bond equivalent, on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable, and applied on a daily basis) of the average of the secondary market bid rates, as of approximately 3:30 P.M., New York City time, on the Interest Determination Date of three leading primary United States government securities dealers, selected by the Calculation Agent, for the issue of Treasury bills with a remaining maturity closest to the Index Maturity described on the face of this Note.

(C) If fewer than three dealers selected by the Calculation Agent are quoting as described in (e)(ii)(B) above, the treasury rate will remain the treasury rate then in effect on that Interest Determination Date.

(iii) The bond equivalent will be calculated using the following formula:

Bond equivalent = D x N

360-(D x M)

where “D” refers to the applicable per annum rate for treasury bills quoted on a bank discount basis and expressed as a decimal, “N” refers to 365 or 366, as the case may be, and “M” refers to the actual number of days in the applicable interest reset period.

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the interest rate hereon shall not be greater than the Maximum Interest Rate, if any, or less than the Minimum Interest Rate, if any, specified on the face hereof.

(g) The Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the foregoing on or before each calculation date. At the request of the registered holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide to such holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect and, if determined, the interest rate which will become effective as of the next Interest Reset Date.

Unless otherwise set forth above, Notes so issued in certificated form will be issued in authorized denominations only and will be issued in registered form only, without coupons.

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Corporation may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge, including, without limitation, any withholding tax, payable in connection therewith.

[EXTENDIBLE NOTE RIDER]

The Corporation and the purchaser of this Note have agreed that this Note is an Extendible Note, whereby the Corporation has the option to extend the maturity of this Note for one or more whole year periods, as set forth below (each, an “Extension Period”), up to but not beyond the Final Maturity Date set forth below, under the terms of this Note as supplemented by this Extendible Note Rider.

Maturity Date

The Corporation may exercise its option with respect hereto by delivery to the Trustee a notice of such exercise at least 45, but not more than 60, calendar days prior to the Stated Maturity Date originally in effect with respect hereto or, if the Stated Maturity Date has already been extended, prior to the maturity date then in effect (each, an “Extended Maturity Date”). After such receipt and not later than 40 calendar days prior to the Stated Maturity Date or an Extended Maturity Date, as the case may be (each, an “Existing Maturity Date”), the Issuing and Paying Agent (or any duly appointed paying agent) will mail by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder hereof a notice (the “Extension Notice”) relating to such extension period (the “Extension Period”) setting forth (i) the election of the Corporation to extend the Maturity hereof, (ii) the new Extended Maturity Date, (iii) the interest rate applicable to the Extension Period (which interest rate may be higher during the Extension Period), and (iv) the provisions, if any, for redemption during the Extension Period, including the date or dates on which, the period or periods during which and the price or prices at which such redemption may occur during the Extension Period. Upon the mailing by the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) of an Extension Notice to the registered holder hereof, the maturity shall be extended automatically as set forth in the Extension Notice, and, except as modified by the Extension Notice and as described in the next paragraph, this Note will have the same terms as prior to the mailing of such Extension Notice.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, not later than 20 calendar days prior to the Existing Maturity Date hereof (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on the immediately succeeding Business Day), the Corporation, at its option, may revoke the interest rate provided for in the Extension Notice and establish a higher interest rate for the Extension Period by mailing or causing the Trustee to mail notice of such higher interest rate, by first class mail, postage prepaid, to the registered holder hereof. Such notice shall be irrevocable. Thereafter, this Note will bear such higher interest rate for the Extension Period.

If the Corporation elects to extend the maturity hereof, the registered holder hereof will have the option to elect repayment hereof in whole or in part by the Corporation on the Existing Maturity Date then in effect at a price equal to the principal amount hereof plus any accrued and unpaid interest to such date. In order for this Note to be so repaid on the Existing Maturity Date, the Corporation must receive, at least 15 days but not more than 30 calendar days prior to the Existing Maturity Date then in effect with respect hereto: (i) this Note with the form “Option to Elect Repayment” below duly completed, or (ii) a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or a letter from a member of a national securities exchange, or the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or a commercial bank or trust company in the United States, setting forth the name of the registered holder hereof, the principal amount hereof to be repaid, the certificate number, or a description of the tenor and terms hereof, a statement that the option to elect repayment is being exercised thereby, and a guarantee that this Note, together with the duly completed form entitled “Option to Elect Repayment” attached hereto, will be received by the Trustee not later than the fifth Business Day after the date of such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or letter; provided, however, that such telegram, telex, facsimile transmission, or letter shall only be effective if this Note and duly completed form are received by the Trustee by such fifth Business Day. Such option may be exercised by the registered holder hereof for less than the aggregate principal amount hereof then outstanding.

[RENEWABLE NOTE RIDER]

The Corporation and the purchaser of this Note have agreed that this Note is a Renewable Note which initially matures on the Stated Maturity Date shown on the face hereof. At each Renewal Date, as specified below, the Maturity of this Note automatically will be extended to the corresponding New Maturity Date, as specified below, until the Final Maturity Date specified below, unless the registered holder of this Note elects to terminate the automatic extension of the Maturity of this Note or any portion hereof and delivers a completed “Extension Termination Notice” to the Trustee (or any duly appointed paying agent) not less than 15 nor more than 30 calendar days prior to the applicable Renewal Date. The “Extension Termination Notice” may specify that the automatic extension of Maturity of this Note is terminated with respect to all or a portion of the outstanding principal amount of the Note. Upon timely delivery of such Extension Termination Notice, the term of the principal amount of this Note subject to such notice will be deemed automatically to mature on the Stated Maturity Date or the then applicable New Maturity Date, as the case may be. The remaining principal balance of such Note, if any, will be deemed to automatically be extended to the corresponding New Maturity Date but in no circumstances may such Maturity be extended beyond the Final Maturity Date set forth below. An election to terminate the automatic extension of the Maturity hereof shall be irrevocable and binding on each holder hereof. Notwithstanding any such extension, the interest rate applicable to this Note will continue to be calculated as set forth in this Note.
