Item 5.04. Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plan.

On November 16, 2005, Bank of America Corporation (the “Registrant”) sent a notice (the “Notice”) to its directors and executive officers informing them that the Bank of America 401(k) Plan and the FleetBoston Financial Savings Plan (collectively, the “Plans”) will be changing their recordkeeping service provider to Fidelity Investments. The Notice states that, as a result of this change, Plan participants will temporarily be unable to direct or diversify investments in their accounts, obtain a loan from the Plans, or obtain a distribution from the Plans during a period that will begin December 31, 2005 (December 27, 2005 for the FleetBoston Plan) and is expected to end on January 9, 2006. In addition, certain transactions (related to elections to contribute to the Plans for the final payroll period in December) will be suspended as early as December 16, 2005.

The Notice further states that the limitations on transactions during the blackout will impact the Bank of America Stock Fund maintained under each Plan and thus, pursuant to Section 306(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, directors and executives are prohibited from directly or indirectly purchasing, selling, or otherwise acquiring or transferring any equity security of the Registrant during the entire period that participant transactions are restricted under the Plans. The Notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The Registrant received the notice required by Section 101(i)(2)(E) of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, on November 14, 2005.

Inquiries concerning the blackout should be directed to William Mostyn, Deputy General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, by telephone at 704.386.5083 or by mail at Bank of America Corporation, 100 North Tryon Street, NC1-007-20-01, Charlotte, NC 28255.
