Hi Jordan,
Thanks for the response. I will post my configuration in as much detail as possible starting from the beginning. I 
First my NIC configuration/setup:
I have 2 NIC cards in my system, each is dual-port. One of the dual-port sets is on-board a supermicro motherboard, the other is added in via PciX.

1st Model : Dual Intel 82574L (on supermicro board, 6016T-MTHF)
2nd Model : EXPI9402PTBLK

My NIC devices and respective MACs
eth0/1 are part of the same controller
eth2/3 are part of the same controller

2: eth0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:1b:21:a5:3d:ee brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

3: eth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:1b:21:a5:3d:ef brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:25:90:31:84:7c brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

5: eth3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN qlen 1000
    link/ether 00:25:90:31:84:7d brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff

My /etc/modprobe.d/bonding.conf settings:
alias bond0 bonding
options bonding mode=1 miimon=100
alias netdev-bond1 bonding
options bonding mode=1 miimon=100


My /etc/networking/interfaces config:
# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
auto eth1
auto eth2
auto eth3

auto bond0
iface bond0 inet static
address 64.94.xxx.xxx
gateway 64.94.xxx.xxx
netmask 255.255.255.128
bond-slaves eth2 eth3
bond-mode 1

auto bond1
iface bond1 inet static
address 192.168.140.140
netmask 255.255.255.0
bond-slave eth0 eth1
bond-mode 1


Let me know if you require more information

What is your configuration? And you do know that the second team cannot be
on the same NIC's as the first team? So if you do a 2x Dual NIC team you
need 4 NIC's in that machine.
