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 5. Defeasance. The provisions of Article Fourteen of the Indenture do not apply to Securities of this Series.

SECTION 6. Events of Default. If an Event of Default (defined in the Indenture as (a) the Corporation’s failure to pay the principal of (or premium, if any, on) the Notes; (b) the Corporation’s failure to pay interest on the Notes within 30 calendar days after the same becomes due; (c) the Corporation’s breach of its other covenants contained in this Note or in the Indenture, which breach is not cured within 90 calendar days after written notice by the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in outstanding principal amount of all Securities issued under the Indenture and affected thereby; and (d) certain events involving the bankruptcy, insolvency or liquidation of the Corporation) shall occur with respect to the Notes, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.

SECTION 7. Modifications and Waivers. The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment of the Indenture and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Corporation and the rights of the holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Corporation with the consent of the holders of not less than 66 2/3% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and all other Securities then outstanding under

the Indenture and affected by such amendment and modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and all other Securities then outstanding under the Indenture and affected thereby, on behalf of the holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Corporation 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 Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder and upon all future holders of this Note and of any Note 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 Note.

No recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, premium on (if any), interest, or other amounts payable on this Note, or for any claim based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto, against any incorporator, stockholder, officer, or director, as such, past, present, or future, of the Corporation or any predecessor or successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

The Notes are issuable only as registered Notes without coupons, and unless otherwise set forth above, only in denominations of $1,000 and whole multiples of $1,000. As provided in the Indenture, and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the holder surrendering the same.

SECTION 10. Registration of Transfer. As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations as therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the register maintained by the Registrar, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Corporation designated by it pursuant to the Indenture, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Corporation and the Trustee or the Security Registrar requiring such written instrument of transfer duly executed by, the registered holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

This Note is being issued by means of a book-entry system with no physical distribution of certificates to be made except as provided in the Indenture.

The Corporation will recognize Cede & Co., as nominee of DTC, while the registered holder of the Notes, as the owner of the Notes for

all purposes, including payment of principal, interest, and the Supplemental Redemption Amount, notices, and voting. Transfer of principal, interest and the Supplemental Redemption Amount to participants of DTC will be the responsibility of DTC, and transfer of principal, interest and the Supplemental Redemption Amount payable to beneficial owners of the Notes by participants of DTC will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of such beneficial owners. So long as the book-entry system is in effect, the selection of any Notes to be redeemed will be determined by DTC pursuant to rules and procedures established by DTC and its participants. The Corporation will not be responsible or liable for such transfers or payments or for maintaining, supervising, or reviewing the records maintained by DTC, its participants, or persons acting through such participants.

This Note may be exchanged in whole, but not in part, for security-printed certificated Notes, only if (i) DTC notifies the Corporation or the Trustee that it is unwilling or unable to continue to act as depository for this Note in global form or if at any time DTC ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and in either such case, a successor depository is not appointed by the Corporation within 60 calendar days, or (ii) the Corporation executes and delivers to the Trustee a written notification that this Note in global form shall be so exchangeable, or (iii) an Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to this Note in global form. In any such instance, an owner of a beneficial interest in this Note will be entitled to physical delivery in certificated form of Notes equal in principal amount to such beneficial interest and to have such Notes registered in its name. 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.

Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Corporation, the Trustee, the Issuing and Paying Agent, and any agent of the Corporation, the Trustee or any Issuing and Paying Agent may treat the person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes.

SECTION 11. Defined Terms. All terms used in this Note which are not defined herein but are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

SECTION 12. Governing Law. THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS.

The following abbreviations, when used in the inscription on the face of the within Note, shall be construed as though they were written out in full according to applicable laws or regulations:

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned hereby sell(s), assign(s) and transfer(s) unto

the within Note and all rights thereunder, hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing Attorney to transfer said Note on the books of the Corporation, with full power of substitution in the premises.

NOTICE: The signature to this assignment must correspond with the name as it appears upon the face of the within Note in every particular, without alteration or enlargement or any change whatever and must be guaranteed.

This Note is part of a series of medium-term notes entitled “Medium-Term Notes, Series K” issued under the Indenture, as described in the Prospectus dated April 14, 2004 and Prospectus Supplement dated April 15, 2004 and is designated as the Bank of America Corporation 1.625% Capital Protected EquitY PerformanCe LinkEd Securities “Index CYCLES™,” due March 23, 2010, Linked to the Nikkei 225 Index. Certain capitalized terms used herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement.

This Note bears interest from the Original Issue Date at a rate of 1.625% per annum. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 23 and September 23 of each year, beginning September 23, 2006, and on the Maturity Date (each, an “interest payment date”). Interest is computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.

Each interest payment on an interest payment date will include interest accrued from, and including, the Original Issue Date or preceding interest payment date, as the case may be, to, but excluding, that interest payment date. If an interest payment date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the applicable payment will be made on the next Business Day as if it were the date that payment was due, and no interest will accrue as a result of the postponement.

The record date for each interest payment date, including the interest payment date scheduled to occur on the Maturity Date, will be the date that is fifteen calendar days prior to that scheduled interest payment date, whether or not that date is a Business Day. However, the principal amount of this Note will be paid only to the holder of this Note on the Maturity Date.

(c) under the circumstances described below, a “Supplemental Redemption Amount” calculated by reference to the Nikkei 225 Index.

On March 20, 2006, which is the “pricing date” of this Note, the Calculation Agent determined the closing level of the Nikkei 225 Index to be 16,624.80, which is referred to as the “Starting Level.” The Calculation Agent will determine the “Average Level”, which is the

arithmetic average of the closing levels of the Nikkei 225 Index on each of the four annual valuation dates set forth below (the sum of the closing level of the Nikkei 225 Index, divided by four):

On the final annual valuation date, the Calculation Agent will determine the “Average Index Return” as follows:

The result will be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth of a decimal place and then expressed as a percentage.

If the Average Index Return is less than or equal to the “Total Interest Percentage” (which is equal to 6.50%), then the Supplemental Redemption Amount will equal $0.00.

If the Average Index Return is greater than the Total Interest Percentage, then the Supplemental Redemption Amount for each $1,000 principal amount of this Note will equal the product of:

This Note is principal protected. If the Average Index Return does not exceed the Total Interest Percentage, the holder of this Note will receive only the principal amount and the final semi-annual interest payment at maturity.

If any of the four annual valuation dates is not a Business Day, then the closing level of the Nikkei 225 Index on the next following Business Day will be used to calculate the Average Level.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture), the holder of this Note only will be entitled to receive the principal amount of the Note, and any accrued and unpaid interest, and will not be entitled to payment of any Supplemental Redemption Amount.

Each of the following will be a “Market Disruption Event” if, in the sole opinion of the Calculation Agent, that event materially affects the Nikkei 225 Index:

(a) the suspension, material limitation, or absence of the trading of a material number of stocks included in the Nikkei 225 Index;

(b) the suspension or material limitation of the trading of stocks on one or more stock exchanges on which stocks included in the Nikkei 225 Index are quoted; or

(c) a breakdown or failure in the price and trade reporting systems of the respective primary markets on which the stocks included in the Nikkei 225 Index are quoted, as a result of which the reported trading prices for the affected stocks, during the last one-half hour before the close of trading in that market are materially inaccurate; or

(d) the suspension or material limitation of the trading of (a) options or futures relating to the Nikkei 225 Index on any options or futures exchanges or (b) options or futures generally.

(a) a limitation on the number of hours or days of trading will not be a Market Disruption Event if it results from an announced change in the regular business hours of the relevant exchange;

(b) a limitation on trading imposed by reason of the movements in price exceeding the levels permitted by any relevant exchange will be a Market Disruption Event;

(c) a decision to permanently discontinue trading in the relevant futures or options contracts will not constitute a Market Disruption Event; and

(d) an absence of trading on an exchange or quotation system will not include any time when that exchange or quotation system is closed for trading under ordinary circumstances.

If a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on a day that would otherwise be an annual valuation date, then the Calculation Agent instead will use the closing level of the Nikkei 225 Index on the first Business Day after that day on which no Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing. In no event, however, will any annual valuation date be postponed by more than five Business Days. If any annual valuation date is postponed to the last possible day, but a Market Disruption Event occurs or is continuing on that day, that day nevertheless will be the annual valuation date, and the Calculation Agent will make a good faith estimate of the closing level of the Nikkei 225 Index based upon its assessment of the level of the Nikkei 225 Index at that time. If the final annual valuation date is postponed due to a Market Disruption Event, the maturity date for this Note also will be postponed by the same number of Business Days.

If Nihon Keizai Shimbun, Inc. (“NKS”) discontinues publication of the Nikkei 225 Index and NKS or another entity publishes a successor or substitute index that the Calculation Agent determines, in its sole discretion, is comparable to the discontinued Nikkei 225 Index (the new index being referred to as a “Successor Index”), then the relevant closing levels will be determined by reference to the Successor Index at the close of trading on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, or the relevant exchange or market for the Successor Index.

If the Calculation Agent selects a Successor Index, the Calculation Agent immediately will notify the Corporation and the Trustee, and the Trustee will provide written notice of a change to the holder of this Note within three Business Days of selection.

If NKS discontinues publication of the Nikkei 225 Index or a Successor Index is discontinued, and the Calculation Agent determines that no Successor Index is available, then the Calculation Agent will notify the Corporation and the Trustee and will calculate the appropriate closing levels. These calculations by the Calculation Agent will be in accordance with the formula for and method of calculating the Nikkei 225 Index last in effect prior to that discontinuance. If a Successor Index is selected or the Calculation Agent calculates a level as a substitute for the Nikkei 225 Index, that Successor Index or level will be substituted for the Nikkei 225 Index for all purposes.

If at any time the method of calculating the Nikkei 225 Index or a Successor Index, or the level of that index, is changed in a material respect, or if the Nikkei 225 Index or a Successor Index in any other way is modified so that it does not, in the opinion of the Calculation Agent, fairly represent the level of the Nikkei 225 Index or the Successor Index had those changes or modifications not been made, then, from and after that time, the Calculation Agent will notify the Corporation and the Trustee. The Calculation Agent will make those calculations and adjustments as, in the good faith judgment of the Calculation Agent, may be necessary in order to arrive at a level of a stock index comparable to the Nikkei 225 Index or the Successor Index, as the case may be, as if those changes or modifications had not been made, and calculate the closing levels with reference to the Nikkei 225 Index or the Successor Index, as adjusted. Accordingly, if the method of calculating the Nikkei 225 Index or a Successor Index is modified so that its level is a fraction of what it would have been if it had not been modified (e.g., due to a split in the index), then the Calculation Agent will adjust the index in order to arrive at a level of the Nikkei 225 Index or the Successor Index as if it had not been modified (e.g., as if the split had not occurred). The Calculation Agent also may determine that no adjustment is required by the modification of the method of calculation.

The Calculation Agent has the sole discretion to make all determinations regarding this Note, including determinations regarding the Average Level, the Average Index Return, the Supplemental Redemption Amount, Market Disruption Events, Successor Indices, and Business Days. Absent manifest error, all determinations of the Calculation Agent will be final and binding on the holder of this Note and the Corporation, without any liability on the part of the Calculation Agent.

The Corporation has initially appointed its affiliate, Banc of America Securities LLC, as the Calculation Agent, but the Corporation may change the Calculation Agent at any time without notifying the holder of this Note.
