“Section 13.01.Acknowledgement of the FDIC’s Debt Guarantee Program. The parties to this Indenture acknowledge that the Issuer has not opted out of the debt guarantee program (the “Debt Guarantee Program”) established by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) under its Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program on November 21, 2008 pursuant to the FDIC’s Final Rule, 12 C.F.R. Part 370 (as amended and as may be further amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Rule”). The Debt Guarantee Program applies to any Securities issued on or after October 14, 2008 through October 31, 2009 (or any later date hereafter designated by the FDIC) that constitute unsecured senior debt, as defined in the Rule and as to which the Issuer has not duly made an opt-out election in accordance with Section 370.3(g) of the Rule (the “Guaranteed Securities”).

The details of the FDIC guarantee are provided in the FDIC’s regulations, 12 CFR Part 370, and at the FDIC’s website,www.fdic.gov/tlgp. The expiration date of the FDIC’s guarantee is the earlier of the maturity date of this debt or June 30, 2012*.
* | The expiration date of the FDIC guarantee will be: (i) in the case of mandatory convertible debt issued prior to April 1, 2009, the earlier of the mandatory conversion date or June 30, 2012; (ii) in the case of other senior unsecured debt issued prior to April 1, 2009, the earlier of the maturity date of the debt or June 30, 2012; (iii) in the case of mandatory convertible debt issued on or after April 1, 2009, the earlier of the mandatory conversion date or December 31, 2012 (or any later date hereafter designated by the FDIC); and (iv) in the case of other senior unsecured debt issued on or after April 1, 2009, the earlier of the maturity date of the debt or December 31, 2012 (or any later date hereafter designated by the FDIC). |

Section 1.02. The Indenture is hereby amended by amending and restating Section 13.02(b), which was added to the Indenture by the Fourth Supplemental Senior Indenture, to read in its entirety as follows:
“(b) Upon an uncured failure by the Issuer to make a timely payment of principal or interest under any Guaranteed Securities (including, with respect to any Guaranteed Securities that are mandatory convertible debt, any failure to make timely delivery of common shares or cash or any other property deliverable with respect to the principal amount of any such Guaranteed Securities on the applicable mandatory conversion date) (a “Payment Default”), the Representative, on behalf of all Holders of such Guaranteed Securities that are represented by the Representative, shall submit to the FDIC a demand for payment by the FDIC of such unpaid principal and interest (including, with respect to any Guaranteed Securities that are mandatory convertible debt, of the principal of such Guaranteed Securities or other cash amounts, if any, due under the terms of such Guaranteed Securities on the applicable mandatory conversion date, in each case upon such failure to make timely delivery of common shares or cash or any other deliverable property on such mandatory conversion date), together with proof of such claim and such other documentation as may be required by the FDIC under the Rule (i) in the case of any Payment Default prior to the final maturity, redemption or mandatory conversion date of such Guaranteed Securities, on the earlier of the date that the applicable cure period ends (or if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day) and 60 days following such Payment Default and (ii) in the case of any Payment Default on the final maturity date, a redemption date or mandatory conversion date for such Guaranteed Securities, on such final maturity date, redemption date or mandatory conversion date (or if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day).”
