Such assignment shall include the right of the FDIC to receive any and all distributions on the Securities of the applicable FDIC-Guaranteed Series from the proceeds of the receivership or bankruptcy estate.

The Issuer hereby consents and agrees that the FDIC is an

5



 

acceptable transferee for all or any portion of payments made in respect of the FDIC-Guaranteed Series for all purposes of this Indenture and upon any such assignment, the FDIC shall be deemed a Holder under this Indenture for all purposes hereof, and the Company hereby agrees to take such reasonable steps as are necessary to comply with any relevant provision of this Indenture as a result of such assignment.
     Section 1406. Surrender of Senior Unsecured Debt Instrument to the FDIC.
     If, at any time on or prior to the expiration of the period during which any FDIC-Guaranteed Series is guaranteed by the FDIC under the Debt Guarantee Program (the “Effective Period”), payment in full with respect to any Security of such FDIC-Guaranteed Series shall be made pursuant to the Debt Guarantee Program on the outstanding principal and accrued interest to such date of payment, the Holder shall, or the Holder shall cause the person or entity in possession to, promptly surrender to the FDIC the certificate, note or other instrument evidencing such Security, if any.
     Section 1407. Notice Obligations to FDIC of Payment Default.
     If, at any time prior to the earlier of (a) full satisfaction of the payment obligations in respect of any FDIC-Guaranteed Series, or (b) expiration of the Effective Period with respect to thereto, the Company is in default of any payment obligation in respect of such FDIC-Guaranteed Series hereunder or under the Securities of such series, including timely payment of any accrued and unpaid interest in respect of the Securities of such FDIC-Guaranteed Series, without regard to any cure period, the Authorized Representative covenants and agrees that it shall provide written notice to the FDIC within one (1) Business Day of such payment default at the address set forth below, or at such other address or by such other means of delivery as the FDIC may specify from time to time:

Terms defined in the Indenture are used herein as so defined. The Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at different times, may bear interest, if any, at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions, if any, may be subject to different sinking funds, if any, may be subject to different covenants and Events of Default and may otherwise vary as provided in the Indenture. This Security is one of the series designated as the [___] [Floating Rate] Guaranteed Notes due [___] of the Company (herein called the “Notes”), which series shall have a current aggregate principal amount of [___], which principal amount may be increased from time to time through the issuance of additional Notes.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of each series to be affected; provided, however, that the express written consent of the FDIC will be required to amend, modify or waive any provision of the Securities that comprise the FDIC-Guaranteed Series or the provisions of the Indenture relating to principal, interest, default or ranking provisions of such Securities; any provisions of the notes or the Indenture required to be included by a “Master Agreement” between the Company and the FDIC relating to the Company’s participation in the “Debt Guarantee Program” component of the FDIC’s Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program; or any other provision that would require the consent of all holders of the Securities. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Securities of each series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future holders of this Security and of any Security issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Security.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest (if any) on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series of like tenor of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

By the acceptance of this Security, the Holder hereof hereby agrees to the appointment of the Trustee as its Authorized Representative for purposes of making claims and taking all actions permitted or required under the Debt Guarantee Program and in accordance with the terms of, and under the circumstances set forth in, the Indenture. Any Holder may elect not to be represented by the Authorized Representative by providing written notice of such election to the Authorized Representative (it being understood that such election shall not affect the Trustee’s capacity under the Indenture except as the representative of such Holder under the Debt Guarantee Program).
All terms used in this Security which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
This Security shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned thereto in the Indenture.
     For value received, the Trustee, on behalf of the Holders (the “Assignor”), hereby assigns to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”), without recourse, all of the Assignor’s respective rights, title and interest in and to: (a) the certificates or other instruments evidencing the Securities of the Assigned FDIC-Guaranteed Series issued under the Indenture (the “Notes”); (b) the Indenture; and (c) any other instrument or agreement executed by the Company regarding obligations of the Company under the Notes or the Indenture (collectively, the “Assignment”).
     The Assignor hereby certifies that:

     (a) agreed to any material amendment of the Notes or the Indenture or to any material deviation from the provisions thereof; or

     The Assignor acknowledges and agrees that this Assignment is subject to the Indenture and to the following:
     1. In the event the Assignor receives any payment under or related to the Notes or the Indenture from a party other than the FDIC (a “Non-FDIC Payment”):
     (a) after the date of demand for a guarantee payment on the FDIC pursuant to 12 C.F.R. Part 370, but prior to the date of the FDIC’s first guarantee payment under the Indenture pursuant to 12 C.F.R. Part 370, the Assignor shall promptly but in no event later than four (4) Business Days after receipt notify the FDIC of the date and the amount of such Non-FDIC Payment and shall apply such payment as payment made by the Company, and not as a guarantee payment made by the FDIC, and therefore, the amount of such payment shall be excluded from this Assignment; and
     (b) after the FDIC’s first guarantee payment under the Indenture, the Assignor shall forward promptly to the FDIC such Non-FDIC Payment in accordance with the payment instructions provided in writing by the FDIC.
     2. Acceptance by the Assignor of payment pursuant to the Debt Guarantee Program on behalf of the Holders shall constitute a release by such Holders of any liability of the FDIC under the Debt Guarantee Program with respect to such payment.
     The Person who is executing this Assignment on behalf of the Assignor hereby represents and warrants to the FDIC that he/she/it is duly authorized to do so.
