ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS
 
  (a) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company
 
                                     II-2
<PAGE>
 
as been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.
 
  (b) The undersigned Company hereby undertakes to, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat the information
omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration
statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus
filed by the Company under Rule 424(b)(1), or (4) or 497(h) under the
Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of the time the
Commission declared it effective.
 
  (c) The undersigned Company hereby undertakes to, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, treat each post-effective
amendment that contains a form of prospectus as a new registration statement
for the securities offered in the registration statement, and that offering of
the securities at that time as the initial bona fide offering of those
securities.

                                TRUST AGREEMENT
                                ---------------

     This TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of October 31, 1997 (this "Trust

"Depositor"), and (ii) BANKERS TRUST (DELAWARE), a Delaware banking corporation
(the "Trustee").  The Depositor and the Trustee hereby agree as follows:

          1.  The trust created hereby (the "Trust") shall be known as "GBCI 
Capital Trust" in which name the Trustee, or the Depositor to the extent
provided herein, may engage in the transactions contemplated hereby, make and
execute contracts, and sue and be sued.

          2.  The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers conveys and sets over to 
the Trustee the sum of $10. The Trustee hereby acknowledges receipt of such
amount in trust from the Depositor, which amount shall constitute the initial
trust estate. The Trustee hereby declares that it will hold the trust estate in
trust for the Depositor. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the
Trust created hereby constitute a business trust under Chapter 38 of Title 12 of
the Delaware Code, 12 Del. C. (S) 3801, et seq. (the "Business Trust Act"), and

trust with the Delaware Secretary of State in accordance with the provisions of
the Business Trust Act.

          3.  The Depositor and the Trustee will enter into an amended and 
restated Trust Agreement, satisfactory to each such party and substantially in
the form included as an exhibit to the 1933 Act Registration Statement (as
defined below), to provide for the contemplated operation of the Trust created
hereby and the issuance of the Preferred Securities and Common Securities
referred to therein. Prior to the execution and delivery of such amended and
restated Trust Agreement, the Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation
hereunder or with respect to the trust estate, except as otherwise required by
applicable law or as may be necessary to obtain prior to such execution and
delivery any licenses, consents or approvals required by applicable law or
otherwise.

          4.  The Depositor and the Trustee hereby authorize and direct the 
Depositor, as the sponsor of the Trust, (i) to file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") and execute, in each case on behalf of
the Trust, (a) the Registration Statement on Form SB-2 (the "1933 Act
Registration Statement"), including any pre-effective or post-effective
amendments to the 1933 Act Registration Statement, relating to the registration
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the Preferred Securities of the
Trust and possibly certain other securities and (b) a Registration Statement on
Form 8-A (the "1934 Act Registration Statement") (including all pre-effective
and post-effective amendments thereto) relating to the registration of the
Preferred Securities of the Trust under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended; (ii) to file with the The Nasdaq National Market (each, an "Exchange")

other applications, statements, certificates, agreements and other instruments
as shall be necessary or desirable to cause the Preferred Securities to be
listed on the Exchange; (iii) to file and execute on behalf of the Trust such

attorney for service of process and other papers and documents as shall be

desirable and (iv) to execute on behalf of the Trust that certain Underwriting
Agreement relating to the Preferred Securities, among the Trust, the Depositor
and the several Underwriters named therein, substantially in the form included
as an exhibit to the 1933 Act Registration Statement. In connection with the
filings referred to above, the Depositor hereby constitutes and appoints Michael
W. Gullion, Keith E. Bouchey and Brian J. Ruisinger, and each of them, as its
true and lawful attorneys-in-fact and agents, with full power of substitution
and resubstitution, for the Depositor or in the Depositor's name, place and
stead, in any and all capacities, to sign any and all amendments (including 
post-effective amendments) to the 1933 Act Registration Statement and the 1934
Act Registration Statement and to file the same, with all exhibits thereto, and
other documents in connection therewith, with the Commission, the Exchange and
administrators of state securities or blue sky laws, granting unto said
attorneys-in-fact and agents full power and authority to do and perform each and
every act and thing requisite and necessary to be done in connection therewith,
as fully to all intents and purposes as the Depositor might or could to in
person, hereby ratifying and confirming all that said attorneys-in-fact and
agents or any of them, or their respective substitute or substitutes, shall do
or cause to be done by virtue hereof.

          5.  This Trust Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts.

          6.  The number of Trustees initially shall be one (1) and thereafter 
the number of Trustees shall be such number as shall be fixed from time to time
by a written instrument signed by the Depositor which may increase or decrease
the number of Trustees; provided, however, that to the extent required by the
Business Trust Act, one Trustee shall either be a natural person who is a
resident of the State of Delaware or, if not a natural person, an entity which

the requirements of applicable Delaware law. Subject to the foregoing, the
Depositor is entitled to appoint or remove without cause any Trustee at any
time. The Trustees may resign upon thirty (30) days' prior notice to the
