FORM OF SECURITIES


 


Section
2.01.      Terms of the 2023 Senior
Notes.


 


(a)            
The title of the 2023 Senior Notes shall be the “2.907% Senior Callable Fixed-to-Floating Rate Notes due 2023”;


 


(b)            
The aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Senior Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture shall
not exceed $2,250,000,000, except as otherwise provided in the Indenture;


 


(c)            
Principal on the 2023 Senior Notes shall be payable on November 7, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”);


 


(d)            
The 2023 Senior Notes shall be issued in global registered form on November 7, 2017 (the “Issue Date”).


 


(e)            
During the period from, and including, the Issue Date to, but excluding, November 7, 2022 (the “Fixed Rate Period”),
interest shall accrue from the Issue Date at a fixed rate of 2.907% per annum. Interest accrued during the Fixed Rate Period shall
be payable semi-annually in arrears on May 7 and November 7 of each year (each, a “Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date”),
commencing on May 7, 2018.


 






    3 


     

    

 


During
the period from, and including, November 7, 2022 to, but excluding, November 7, 2023 (the “Floating Rate Period”),
interest shall accrue at a floating annual rate (the “Floating Interest Rate”) equal to LIBOR on the applicable
Interest Determination Date plus the Spread. The “Spread” is 81 basis points. Interest accrued during
the Floating Rate Period shall be payable quarterly in arrears on February 7, 2023, May 7, 2023, August 7, 2023 and November 7,
2023 (each, a “Floating Rate Interest Payment Date”, and together with the Fixed Rate Interest Payment Dates,
the “Interest Payment Dates”).


 


The
Regular Record Dates for the 2023 Senior Notes shall be 15 calendar days immediately preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date,
whether or not a Business Day. If the scheduled Maturity Date or date of redemption or repayment is not a Business Day, the Company
may pay interest and principal on the next succeeding Business Day, but interest on that payment shall not accrue during the period
from and after the scheduled Maturity Date or date of redemption or repayment.


 


Interest
during the Fixed Rate Period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year divided into twelve months of 30 days each and,
in the case of an incomplete month, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such period. If any scheduled Fixed Rate
Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the Company shall pay interest on the next Business Day, but interest on that payment
shall not accrue during the period from and after such scheduled Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date.


 


Interest
during the Floating Rate Period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. The
Floating Interest Rate shall be reset on each Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (each, an “Interest Reset Date”).
If any scheduled Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date) is not a Business Day, such Floating Rate
Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall continue to accrue, except
that if the Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such Floating Rate Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately
preceding Business Day. In each such case, except for the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date falling on the Maturity Date, the
Floating Rate Interest Periods and the Interest Reset Dates shall be adjusted accordingly to calculate the amount of interest
payable on the 2023 Senior Notes.


 


The
first interest period shall begin on, and include, the last Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date to, but exclude, the First Floating
Interest Payment Date. Each subsequent interest period shall begin on, and include, a Floating Interest Payment Date to, but exclude,
the immediately succeeding Floating Interest Payment Date (together with the first interest period, each a “Floating
Rate Interest Period”) except that the final Floating Rate Interest Period shall end on, but exclude, the Maturity Date.


 






    4 


     

    

 


The
Calculation Agent shall determine LIBOR for each Floating Rate Interest Period on the second London Banking Day prior to the first
day of such Floating Rate Interest Period (an “Interest Determination Date”).


 


“LIBOR,”
with respect to a Floating Rate Interest Period, shall be the offered rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for deposits
of U.S. dollars having a maturity of three months that appears on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time.


 


If
no rate appears on the Designated LIBOR Page, LIBOR shall be determined for such Interest Determination Date on the basis of the
rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered
to prime banks in the London inter-bank market by four major banks in such market selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation
with the Company, for a term of three months and in a Representative Amount. The Calculation Agent shall request that the principal
London office of each of such banks provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such
Floating Rate Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided,
LIBOR for such Floating Rate Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m. in the
City of New York on such Interest Determination Date by three major banks in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent,
after consultation with the Company, for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, for a term of three months and in a
Representative Amount. If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such Floating Rate Interest Period shall be the
arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two quotations are provided (including if no published LIBOR is available and
banks are unable or unwilling to provide quotations for the calculation of LIBOR), then the applicable interest rate for such
floating rate interest period will be the rate of interest applicable during the preceding interest period.


 


A
“London Banking Day” means any day in which dealings in United States dollars are transacted or, with respect
to any future date, are expected to be transacted in the London interbank market.


 


“Designated
LIBOR Page” means the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 display page, or any successor page, on Reuters or any successor service
(or any such other service(s) as may be nominated by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”) or its successor
or such other entity assuming the responsibility of IBA or its successor in calculating the London interbank offered rate in the
event IBA or its successor no longer does so for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits).


 


“Representative
Amount” means an amount that in the judgment of the Calculation Agent is representative for a single transaction in
U.S. dollars in such market at such time.

All
percentages resulting from any of the above calculations shall be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth
of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded
to 9.87655% (or .0987655)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations shall be rounded to the nearest

Section
3.02.      Deletion of Definitions.
With respect to the Securities only, the following definitions shall be deleted in their entirety in Section 1.01 of the Senior
Debt Securities Indenture:


 


“Default
Interest” has the meaning specified in ‎Section 3.07.


 


Section
3.03.      Payment; Interest Rights
Preserved. With respect to the Securities only, Section 3.07 is amended and restated in its entirety and shall read as follows:


 


Section
3.07. Payment; Interest Rights Preserved. Except as otherwise provided as contemplated by ‎Section 3.01 with
respect to any series of Senior Debt Securities, interest, if any, on any Senior Debt Securities which is payable, and is paid
or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Holder (including if held through a Paying Agent of the
Company designated pursuant to ‎Section 3.01 outside the United Kingdom for collection by the Holder) at the close
of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest.


 


In
the case of Senior Debt Securities where payment is to be made in Dollars, payment at any Paying Agent’s office outside
The City of New York will be made in Dollars by check drawn on, or, at the request of the Holder, by transfer to a Dollar account
maintained by the payee with, a bank in The City of New York.


 


In
the case of Senior Debt Securities where payment is to be made in a Foreign Currency, payment will be made as established pursuant

registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Senior Debt Security shall carry the rights to interest
accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, which were carried by such other Senior Debt Security.


 


Section
3.04.      Events of Default.
With respect to the Securities only, Section 5.01 of the Senior Indenture is amended and restated in its entirety and shall read
as follows:


 


Section
5.01. Events of Default. “Event of Default”, wherever used herein with respect to Senior Debt Securities
of a particular series, means the making of an order by a court of competent jurisdiction which is not successfully appealed


 






    13 


     

    

 


within
30 days of the making of such order, or valid adoption by the shareholders of the Company of an effective resolution, for the
winding-up of the Company (other than under or in connection with a scheme of amalgamation or reconstruction not involving bankruptcy
or insolvency). The exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority shall not constitute a default
or an Event of Default under this Section 5.01 or a Default under Section 5.03.


 


Section
3.05.      Acceleration of Maturity;
Rescission and Annulment. With respect to the Securities only, Section 5.02 of the Senior Indenture is amended by adding the
following at the end of the section:


 


If
the Senior Debt Securities become due and payable (whether pursuant to this Section 5.02 or Article 11 below) and the Company
fails to pay such amounts (or any damages awarded for breach of any obligations in respect of the Senior Debt Securities or this
Senior Debt Securities Indenture) forthwith upon demand, notwithstanding the continuing right of any Holder to receive payment
of the principal of and interest on Senior Debt Securities, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, each
in accordance with Section 316(b) (Directions and Waivers by Bondholders; Prohibition of Impairment of Holders’ Right
to Repayment) of the Trust Indenture Act, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, may institute proceedings
for the winding up of the Company, and/or prove in a winding up of the Company for all such due and payable amounts (including
any damages awarded for breach of any obligations in respect of the Senior Debt Securities or this Senior Debt Securities Indenture)
but no other remedy shall be available to the Trustee or the Holders.


 


Section
3.06.      Defaults; Collection of
Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. With respect to the Securities only, Section 5.03 of the Senior Indenture
is amended and restated in its entirety and shall read as follows:


 


Section
5.03. Defaults; Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Trustee. “Default” wherever
used herein with respect to Senior Debt Securities of a particular series, means any one of the following events (subject as provided
below, whatever the reason for such Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law
pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental
body):


 


(a)
the Company fails to pay any installment of interest on any Senior Debt Security of such series on or before its Interest Payment
Date and such failure continues for 14 days; or


 


(b)
the Company fails to pay all or any part of the principal of any Senior Debt Security of such series on any date on which such
principal shall otherwise have become due and payable, whether upon redemption or otherwise, and such failure continues for seven
days.


 






    14 


     

    

 


If
a Default occurs, the Trustee may commence a proceeding for the winding-up of the Company and/or prove in a winding-up of the
Company, provided that the Trustee may not (except in such winding-up, in accordance with Section 5.01) declare the principal
amount of, or any other amount in respect of, any Outstanding Senior Debt Security to be due and payable.


 


Subject
to applicable law, including the Trust Indenture Act, no Holder may exercise or claim any right of set-off, counterclaim, combination
of accounts, compensation or retention in respect of any amount owed to it by the Company arising under or in connection with
the Senior Debt Securities. The Holders of Senior Debt Securities by their acceptance thereof will be deemed to have waived any
right of set-off, counterclaim, combination of accounts, compensation and retention with respect to the Senior Debt Securities
or this Senior Debt Securities Indenture (or between the obligations under or in respect of any Senior Debt Securities and any
liability owed by a Holder to the Company) that they might otherwise have against the Company, whether before or during a winding-up
or liquidation of the Company. Notwithstanding the above, if any of such rights and claims of any such Holder against the Company
are discharged by set-off, such Holder will immediately pay an amount equal to the amount of such discharge to the Company or,
in the event of the winding up of the Company, the liquidator or administrator (or other relevant insolvency official), as the
case may be, and until such time as payment is made will hold a sum equal to such amount in trust for the Company or the liquidator
or administrator (or other relevant insolvency official), as the case may be, and accordingly such discharge shall be deemed not
to have taken place.


 


Notwithstanding
the foregoing, failure to make any payment in respect of a series of Senior Debt Securities shall not be a Default in respect
of such Senior Debt Securities if such payment is withheld or refused and the Company delivers an Opinion of Counsel concluding
that such sums were not paid in order to comply with any fiscal or other law or regulation or with the order of any court of competent
jurisdiction, provided, however, that the Trustee may by notice to the Company require the Company to take such action (including
but not limited to proceedings for a declaration by a court of competent jurisdiction) as the Trustee may be advised in an Opinion
of Counsel, upon which opinion the Trustee may conclusively rely, is appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances to resolve
such doubt, in which case the Company shall forthwith take and expeditiously proceed with such action and shall be bound by any
final resolution of the doubt resulting therefrom. If any such action results in a determination that the relevant payment can
be made without violating any applicable law, regulation or order then the provisions of the preceding sentence shall cease to
have effect and the payment shall become due and payable on the expiration of 14 days (in the case of payments under Section 5.03(a)
above) or seven days (in the case of payments under Section 5.03(b) above) after the Trustee gives written notice to the Company
informing it of such resolution.


 






    15 


     

    

 


Except
as otherwise provided in this Article 5, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights
of the Holders of Senior Debt Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most
effectual to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Senior
Debt Securities Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right
vested in the Trustee by this Senior Debt Securities Indenture or by law, provided, however, that the Company shall not, as a
result of the bringing of such judicial proceedings, be required to pay any amount representing or measured by reference to the
principal of, or any interest on, the Senior Debt Securities prior to any date on which the principal of, or any interest on,
the Senior Debt Securities would have otherwise been payable by the Company.


 


No
recourse for the payment of the principal of (or premium, if any) or interest, if any, on any Senior Debt Security, or for any
claim based thereon or otherwise in respect thereof and no recourse under or upon any obligation, covenant or agreement of the
Company in this Senior Debt Securities Indenture, or in any Senior Debt Security, or because of the creation of any indebtedness
represented thereby, shall be had against any incorporator, stockholder, officer or director, past, present or future, of the
Company or of any successor corporation of the Company, either directly or through the Company or any successor corporation, whether
by virtue of any constitution, statute or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise; it being
expressly understood that to the extent lawful all such liability is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and
as a consideration for, the execution of this Senior Debt Securities Indenture and the issue of the Senior Debt Securities.


 


No
remedy against the Company other than as referred to in this Article 5 shall be available to the Trustee or the Holders, whether
for the recovery of amounts owing in respect of the Senior Debt Securities or under this Senior Debt Securities Indenture or in
respect of any breach by the Company of any of its other obligations under or in respect of the Senior Debt Securities or under
this Senior Debt Securities Indenture, except that the Trustee and the Holders shall have such rights and powers as they are required
to have under the Trust Indenture Act.


 


Section
3.07.      With respect to the Securities
only, (a) Sections 5.07(a), 5.07(b), 5.11, 5.13, 6.02, 6.03(i), 8.01(b), 8.03(c) and 10.03(b) shall be amended to add the words
“or Default” after each appearance of the words “Event of Default” and (b) Section 11.08 shall be amended
to replace in the first paragraph the word “Unless” with the words “Subject to Section 11.1 and unless”.


 


Section
3.08.      Deletion of Satisfaction
and Discharge Provisions. With respect to the Securities only, Article 4 of the Senior Indenture is deleted in its entirety.


 






    16 


     

    

 


Section
3.09.      Compensation and Reimbursement.
With respect to the Securities only, Section 6.07 of the Senior Indenture is amended in part to add the following sentence at
the end of the section:


 


The
Trustee’s right to reimbursement and indemnity under this Section 6.07 shall survive the payment in full of the Senior Debt
Securities, the discharge of this Senior Debt Securities Indenture, the resignation or removal of the Trustee and (without prejudice
to Section 4.08 of the Third Supplemental Indenture if and to the extent applicable as set out therein) any exercise of the U.K.
bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the obligations owed or owing to Holders pursuant to or
in connection with the Senior Debt Securities.


 


Section
3.10.      Agreement with Respect
to Exercise of U.K. Bail-In Power. The following provisions relate solely to the Securities established pursuant to this Third
Supplemental Indenture:


 


(a)            
Notwithstanding any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and any Holder or Beneficial
Owner of the Securities, by purchasing or acquiring the Securities, each Holder (including each Beneficial Owner) of the Securities
acknowledges, accepts, agrees to be bound by and consents to the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority that may result in (i) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on,
the Securities; (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on, the Securities into shares
or other securities or other obligations of the Company or another person; and/or (iii) the amendment or alteration of the maturity
of the Securities, or amendment of the amount of interest due on the Securities, or the dates on which interest becomes payable,
including by suspending payment for a temporary period; which U.K. bail-in power may be exercised by means of variation of the
terms of the Securities solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of such U.K. bail-in power.
Each Holder and Beneficial Owner of the Securities further acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the Holders and/or Beneficial
Owners under the Securities are subject to, and will be varied, if necessary, solely to give effect to, the exercise of any U.K.
bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.


 


(b)            
By purchasing or acquiring the Securities, each Holder and each Beneficial Owner of the Securities:


 


(i)           
acknowledges and agrees that the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority in respect
of the Securities shall not give rise to a default or an Event of Default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Default)
and Section 315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture Act;


 


(ii)           
to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate
a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and agrees that the Trustee shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes,
or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority with respect to the Securities; and


 






    17 


     

    

 


(iii)           
acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, (a)
the Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from Holders of the Securities under Section 5.12 of the Senior
Indenture, and (b) neither the Senior Indenture nor this Third Supplemental Indenture shall impose any duties upon the Trustee
whatsoever with respect to the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if, following the completion of the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, any
of the Securities remain outstanding (for example, if the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power results in only a partial write-down
of the principal of the Securities), then the Trustee’s duties under the Indenture shall remain applicable with respect
to the Securities following such completion to the extent that the Company and the Trustee shall agree pursuant to a supplemental
indenture or an amendment to this Third Supplemental Indenture.


 


(c)            
By purchasing or acquiring the Securities, each Holder and Beneficial Owner that acquires its Securities in the secondary
market shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified in the Indenture to
the same extent as the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Securities that acquire the Securities upon their initial issuance,
including, without limitation, with respect to the acknowledgement and agreement to be bound by and consent to the terms of the
Securities related to the U.K. bail-in power.


 


(d)            
By purchasing or acquiring the Securities, each Holder and Beneficial Owner shall be deemed to have (i) consented to the
exercise of any U.K. bail-in power as it may be imposed without any prior notice by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of
its decision to exercise such power with respect to the Securities and (ii) authorized, directed and requested DTC and any direct
participant in DTC or other intermediary through which it holds such Securities to take any and all necessary action, if required,
to implement the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power with respect to the Securities as it may be imposed, without any further action
or direction on the part of such Holder or Beneficial Owner or the Trustee.


 


(e)            
No repayment of the principal amount of the Securities or payment of interest on the Securities shall become due and payable
after the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority unless, at the time that such repayment
or payment, respectively, is scheduled to become due, such repayment or payment would be permitted to be made by the Company under
the laws and regulations of the United Kingdom and the European Union applicable to the Company and the Group.


 


(f)            
Upon the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the Securities, the
Company shall provide a written notice to DTC as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the U.K. bail-in power for purposes
of notifying Holders of such occurrence. The Company shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes
only.

November 7, 2027, in each case, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes being redeemed together
with any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the the date of redemption.


 


Section
11.10. Loss Absorption Disqualification Event Redemption.


 


Subject
to Section 11.11, the Company may, at the Company’s option (but subject to, if and to the extent then required by the Relevant
Regulator or the Loss Absorption Regulations, our giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and the Relevant Regulator granting
us permission), having given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to holders, redeem all but not some only of
the Securities outstanding at any time at 100% of their principal amount together with any accrued but unpaid interest to the
date of redemption, if immediately prior to the giving of the notice referred to above, the Company satisfies the Trustee that
a Loss Absorption Disqualification Event has occurred.


 


Section
11.11. Conditions to Redemption and Repurchase, etc.


 


Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, any redemption or purchase of Securities (other than redemption on the relevant Maturity Date),
and any modification to the terms of the Securities or any indenture relating thereto, is subject to, if and to the extent then
required by the Relevant Regulator or the Loss Absorption Regulations, the Company giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and
the Relevant Regulator granting the Company permission therefor and otherwise to compliance with the Loss Absorption Regulations
if and to the extent then required thereunder.

(as defined on the reverse hereof) and (ii) from, and including, November 7, 2022 to, but excluding, November 7, 2023, quarterly
in arrears on the Floating Rate Interest Payment Dates (as defined on the reverse hereof). Interest so payable on any Interest

continues for 14 days or (ii) the Company fails to pay all or any part of the principal of any Senior Note on any date on which
such principal shall otherwise have become due and payable, whether upon redemption or otherwise, and such failure continues for
seven days (each of (i) and (ii), a “Default”), the Trustee may commence a proceeding for the winding up of the Company,
provided that the Trustee may not, upon the occurrence of a Default, declare the principal amount of any of the Outstanding Senior
Notes to be due and payable.

as provided in the Indenture) such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as
if made on such date for payment and without any interest or other payment in respect of such delay.

such U.K. bail-in power. Each Holder and Beneficial Owner of this Senior Note further acknowledges and agrees that the rights

[REVERSE
OF SECURITY]


 


This
Senior Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Senior Notes”) issued
and to be issued in one or more series under a Senior Debt Securities Indenture, dated as of July 6, 2010 (herein called the “Senior
Indenture”), among the Company, as issuer, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,”
which term includes any successor trustee under the Senior Indenture), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture dated
as of November 7, 2017, among the Company and the Trustee (the “Third Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the
Senior Indenture, the “Indenture”) to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby
made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee
and the Holders of the Senior Notes and of the terms upon which the Senior Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.


 


This
Senior Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $2,250,000,000.
The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the Senior Notes, issue additional notes having the same ranking and interest
rate, maturity date, redemption terms and other terms as the Senior Notes except for the price to the public, issue date and first
interest payment date, provided that such additional notes must be fungible with the outstanding Senior Notes for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. Any such Senior Notes, together with this Senior Note, will constitute a single series of securities under
the Indenture. The Senior Notes will initially be issued in the form of one or more global Senior Notes (each, a “Global
Senior Note”). Except as provided in the Indenture, a Global Senior Note shall not be exchangeable for one or more definitive
Senior Notes.


 


The
Senior Notes of this series will constitute unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company, as described herein, and
will rank pari passu without any preference among themselves.


 


During
period from, and including November 7, 2017 to, but excluding, November 7, 2022 (the “Fixed Rate Period”), interest
shall accrue from the Issue Date at a fixed rate of 2.907% per annum. Interest accrued during the Fixed Rate Period shall be payable
semi-annually in arrears on May 7 and November 7 of each year (each, a “Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date”), commencing
on May 7, 2018.


 


During
the period from, and including, November 7, 2022 to, but excluding, November 7, 2023 (the “Floating Rate Period”),
interest shall accrue at a floating annual rate (the “Floating Interest Rate”) equal to LIBOR on the applicable Interest
Determination Date plus the Spread. The “Spread” is 81 basis points. Interest accrued during the Floating Rate
Period shall be payable quarterly in arrears on February 7, 2023, May 7, 2023, August 7, 2023 and November 7, 2023 (each, a “Floating
Rate Interest Payment Date”, and together with the Fixed Rate Interest Payment Dates, the “Interest Payment Dates”).


 






    A-6 


     

    

 


Interest
during the Fixed Rate Period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year divided into twelve months of 30 days each and,
in the case of an incomplete month, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such period. If any scheduled Fixed Rate
Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the Company shall pay interest on the next Business Day, but interest on that payment
shall not accrue during the period from and after such scheduled Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date.


 


Interest
during the Floating Rate Period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. The
Floating Interest Rate shall be reset on each Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (each, an “Interest Reset Date”).
If any scheduled Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date) is not a Business Day, such Floating Rate
Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall continue to accrue, except
that if the Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such Floating Rate Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately
preceding Business Day. In each such case, except for the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date falling on the Maturity Date, the
Floating Rate Interest Periods and the Interest Reset Dates shall be adjusted accordingly to calculate the amount of interest
payable on the Senior Notes.


 


If
the scheduled Maturity Date or date of redemption or repayment is not a Business Day, the Company may pay interest and principal
on the next succeeding Business Day, but interest on that payment shall not accrue during the period from and after the scheduled
Maturity Date or date of redemption or repayment.


 


The
first interest period shall begin on, and include, the last Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date to, but exclude, the First Floating
Interest Payment Date. Each subsequent interest period shall begin on, and include, a Floating Interest Payment Date to, but exclude,
the immediately succeeding Floating Interest Payment Date (together with the first interest period, each a “Floating Rate
Interest Period”) except that the final Floating Rate Interest Period shall end on, but exclude, the Maturity Date.


 


The
Calculation Agent shall determine LIBOR for each Floating Rate Interest Period on the second London Banking Day prior to the first
day of such Floating Rate Interest Period (an “Interest Determination Date”).


 


“LIBOR,”
with respect to a Floating Rate Interest Period, shall be the offered rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for deposits
of U.S. dollars having a maturity of three months that appears on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time.


 


If
no rate appears on the Designated LIBOR Page, LIBOR shall be determined for such Interest Determination Date on the basis of the
rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered
to prime banks in the London inter-bank market by four major banks in such market selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation
with the Company, for a term of three months and in a Representative Amount. The Calculation Agent shall request that the principal
London office of each of such banks provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such
Floating Rate Interest


 






    A-7 


     

    

 


Period
shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such Floating Rate
Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m. in the City of New York on such Interest
Determination Date by three major banks in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company,
for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, for a term of three months and in a Representative Amount. If at least two
such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such Floating Rate Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If
fewer than two quotations are provided (including if no published LIBOR is available and banks are unable or unwilling to provide
quotations for the calculation of LIBOR), then the applicable interest rate for such floating rate interest period will be the
rate of interest applicable during the preceding interest period.


 


A
“London Banking Day” means any day in which dealings in United States dollars are transacted or, with respect to any
future date, are expected to be transacted in the London interbank market.


 


“Designated
LIBOR Page” means the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 display page, or any successor page, on Reuters or any successor service (or
any such other service(s) as may be nominated by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”) or its successor or
such other entity assuming the responsibility of IBA or its successor in calculating the London interbank offered rate in the
event IBA or its successor no longer does so for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits).


 


“Representative
Amount” means an amount that in the judgment of the Calculation Agent is representative for a single transaction in U.S.
dollars in such market at such time.


 


All
calculations of the Calculation Agent, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the
Company and on the Holders of the Senior Notes.


 


All
percentages resulting from any of the above calculations shall be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth
of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded
to 9.87655% (or .0987655)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations shall be rounded to the nearest
cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).


 


The
Floating Interest Rate on the Senior Notes shall in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by law or lower than 0%
per annum.


 


On
at least 5 business days but no more than 30 business days’ prior written notice delivered to the Holders of the Senior
Notes, the Company may in its sole discretion (but subject to, if and to the extent then required by the Relevant Regulator or
the Loss Absorption Regulations, the Company giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and the Relevant Regulator granting us permission)
redeem the Senior Notes, in whole,


 






    A-8 


     

    

 


but
not in part, on November 7, 2022 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed
plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the date of redemption.


 


If
an Event of Default with respect to the Senior Notes of this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the
Holder or Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Senior Notes of this series may declare
the principal amount of, and any accrued interest on, all the Senior Notes to be due and payable immediately, in the manner, with
the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.


 


Except
as otherwise provided in Article 5 of the Senior Indenture, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its
rights and the rights of Holders of Senior Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual
to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in the Indenture or
in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by
the Indenture or by law, provided, however, that the Company shall not, as a result of the bringing of such judicial proceedings,
be required to pay any amount representing or measured by reference to the principal of, or any interest on, the Senior Notes
prior to any date on which the principal of, or any interest on, the Senior Notes would have otherwise been payable by the Company.


 


If
a Default occurs, the Trustee may commence a proceeding for the winding-up of the Company and/or prove in a winding-up of the
Company, provided that the Trustee may not, upon the occurrence of a Default, declare the principal amount of any of the Outstanding
Senior Notes to be due and payable.


 


Failure
to make any payment in respect of this Senior Note shall not be a Default if such payment is withheld or refused and an Opinion
of Counsel is delivered to the Trustee concluding that such sums were not paid in order to comply with any fiscal or other law
or regulation or with the order of any court of competent jurisdiction, provided, however, that the Trustee may by notice to the
Company require the Company to take such action (including but not limited to proceedings for a declaration by a court of competent
jurisdiction) as the Trustee may be advised in an Opinion of Counsel, upon which opinion the Trustee may conclusively rely, is
appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances to resolve such doubt, in which case the Company shall forthwith take and expeditiously
proceed with such action and shall be bound by any final resolution of the doubt resulting therefrom. If any such action results
in a determination that the relevant payment can be made without violating any applicable law, regulation or order then the provisions
of the preceding sentence shall cease to have effect and the payment shall become due and payable on the expiration of 14 days
(in the case of payments under Section 5.03(a) of the Senior Indenture) or seven days (in the case of payments under Section 5.03(b)
of the Senior Indenture) after the Trustee gives written notice to the Company informing it of such resolution.


 






    A-9 


     

    

 


Subject
to applicable law, no Holder may exercise or claim any right of set-off, counterclaim, combination of accounts, compensation or
retention in respect of any amount owed to it by the Company arising under or in connection with the Senior Notes. The Holders
of Senior Notes by their acceptance thereof will be deemed to have waived any right of set-off, counterclaim, combination of accounts,
compensation and retention with respect to the Senior Notes or the Senior Indenture (or between the obligations under or in respect
of any Senior Notes and any liability owed by a Holder to the Company) that they might otherwise have against the Company.


 


No
remedy against the Company other than as referred to in Article 5 of the Senior Indenture shall be available to the Trustee or
the Holders, whether for the recovery of amounts owing in respect of the Senior Notes or under the Indenture or in respect of
any breach by the Company of any of its other obligations under or in respect of the Senior Notes or under the Senior Indenture,
except that the Trustee and the Holders shall have such rights and powers as they are required to have under the Trust Indenture
Act.


 


Amounts
to be paid on the Senior Notes of this Series will be made without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any and all
present and future income, stamp and other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges or fees, levied, collected, withheld or assessed
by or on behalf of the United Kingdom or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (the
“Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. If at any time a Taxing Jurisdiction
requires the Company to make such deduction or withholding, the Company will pay additional amounts with respect to the principal
of, and interest and any other payments on, the Senior Notes of this series (“Additional Amounts”) that are necessary
in order that the net amounts paid to the Holders, after the deduction or withholding, shall equal the amounts which would have
been payable on the Senior Notes if the deduction or withholding had not been required. However, this will not apply to
any such tax, levy, impost, duty, charge or fee, which would not have been deducted or withheld but for the fact that:


 


(i)
the Holder or the Beneficial Owner of the Senior Note is a domiciliary, national or resident of, or engaging in business or maintaining
a permanent establishment or is physically present in, the Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise has some connection with the Taxing
Jurisdiction other than the holding or ownership of a Senior Note, or the collection of any payment of (or in respect of) principal
of, or interest or other payments on, any Senior Note,


 


(ii)
except in the case of winding-up in the United Kingdom, the relevant Senior Note is presented (where presentation is required)
for payment in the United Kingdom,


 


(iii)
the relevant Senior Note is presented (where presentation is required) for payment more than 30 days after the date payment became
due or was provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to the Additional Amounts
on presenting the same for payment at the close of that 30 day period,


 






    A-10 


     

    

 


(iv)
the Holder or the Beneficial Owner of the relevant Senior Note or the Beneficial Owner of any payment of (or in respect of) principal
of, or interest or other payments on, the Senior Note failed to comply with a request of the Company or its liquidator or other
authorized person addressed to the Holder (x) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the
Holder or such Beneficial Owner or (y) to make any declaration or other similar claim to satisfy any requirement, which in the
case of (x) or (y), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Taxing Jurisdiction
as a precondition to exemption from all or part of the tax, levy, impost, duty, charge or fee,


 


(v)
the withholding or deduction is required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings
income, or any directive amending, supplementing or replacing such directive, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced
in order to conform to, such directive or directives,


 


(vi)
the Senior Note is presented (where presentation is required) for payment by or on behalf of a Holder who would have been able
to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the Senior Note to another paying agent,


 


(vii)
the deduction or withholding is imposed by reason of any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in connection with Sections
1471-1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental
agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom or any other jurisdiction with respect to FATCA, or any law, regulation
or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing, or relating to, FATCA or any intergovernmental agreement;
or


 


(viii)
any combination of clauses (i) through (vii) above,


 


nor shall
Additional Amounts be paid with respect to the principal of, or any interest or other payments on, the Senior Note to any Holder
who is a fiduciary or partnership or any person other than the sole Beneficial Owner of such payment to the extent such payment
would be required by the laws of any Taxing Jurisdiction to be included in the income for tax purposes of a beneficiary or partner
or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a Beneficial Owner who would not have been entitled
to such Additional Amounts, had it been the Holder.


 


References
herein to the payment of the principal of or interest or other payments on any Senior Note shall be deemed to include mention
of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in the foregoing paragraph to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts
are, were or would be payable under the foregoing provisions.


 


In
addition to the Company’s right to redeem the Senior Notes on November 7, 2022, the Senior Notes of this series are redeemable,
as a whole but not in part, at the option of the Company, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, on any Payment
Date, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together with accrued but unpaid interest, in respect of the
Senior Notes to the date fixed for


 






    A-11 


     

    

 


redemption,
if, at any time, the Company shall determine that as a result of a change in or amendment to the laws or regulations of the Taxing
Jurisdiction (including any treaty to which such Taxing Jurisdiction is a party), or any change in the application or interpretation
of such laws or regulations (including a decision of any court or tribunal) which change or amendment becomes effective on or
after November 7, 2017:


 


(a)
in making payment under the Senior Notes the Company has or will or would on the next Payment Date become obligated to pay Additional
Amounts;


 


(b)
the payment of interest on the next Payment Date in respect of any of the Senior Notes would be treated as a “distribution”
within the meaning of Chapter 2 of Part 23 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 of the United Kingdom (or any statutory modification
or re-enactment thereof for the time being); or


 


(c)
on the next Payment Date the Company would not be entitled to claim a deduction in respect of such payment of interest in computing
its United Kingdom taxation liabilities (or the value of such deduction to the Company would be materially reduced).


 


In
any case where the Company shall determine that, in accordance with Section 11.08 of the Senior Indenture, it is entitled to redeem
the Senior Notes of this series, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee prior to the giving of any notice of
redemption a written legal opinion of independent United Kingdom counsel of recognized standing (selected by the Company) in a
form satisfactory to the Trustee confirming that the relevant change or amendment has occurred and that the Company is entitled
to exercise its right of redemption.


 


The
Company may, at the Company’s option (but subject to, if and to the extent then required by the Relevant Regulator or the
Loss Absorption Regulations, our giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and the Relevant Regulator granting us permission), having
given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to holders, redeem all but not some only of the Senior Notes outstanding
at any time at 100% of their principal amount together with any accrued but unpaid interest to the date of redemption, if immediately
prior to the giving of the notice referred to above, the Company satisfies the Trustee that a Loss Absorption Disqualification
Event has occurred. Any redemption or purchase of Senior Notes (other than redemption on the relevant maturity date), and any
modification to the terms of the Senior Notes or any indenture relating thereto, is subject to, if and to the extent then required
by the Relevant Regulator or the Loss Absorption Regulations, our giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and the Relevant Regulator
granting us permission therefor and otherwise to compliance with the Loss Absorption Regulations if and to the extent then required
thereunder.


 


If
the Company elects to redeem the Senior Notes of this series, the Senior Notes will cease to accrue interest from the date of
redemption, provided the redemption price has been paid in accordance with the Indenture.


 






    A-12 


     

    

 


Upon
payment of (i) the amount of principal (and premium, if any) so declared due and payable and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest,
all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), and accrued and unpaid
interest on, the Senior Notes of this series shall terminate.


 


Notwithstanding
any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and any Holder or Beneficial Owner of this Senior Note,
by purchasing or acquiring this Senior Note, each Holder (including each Beneficial Owner) of this Senior Note acknowledges, accepts,
agrees to be bound by and consents to the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority that may
result in (i) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on, the Senior Notes;
(ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on, the Senior Notes into shares or other securities
or other obligations of the Company or another person; and/or (iii) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Senior
Notes, or amendment of the amount of interest due on the Senior Notes, or the dates on which interest becomes payable, including
by suspending payment for a temporary period; which U.K. bail-in power may be exercised by means of variation of the terms of
the Senior Notes solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of such U.K. bail-in power. Each
Holder and Beneficial Owner of the Senior Notes further acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the Holders and/or Beneficial
Owners under the Senior Notes are subject to, and will be varied, if necessary, solely to give effect to, the exercise of any
U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.


 


By
purchasing or acquiring the Senior Notes, each Holder and Beneficial Owner of the Securities:


 


(i)
acknowledges and agrees that the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority in respect of the
Senior Notes shall not give rise to a default or an Event of Default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Default) and Section
315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture Act;


 


(ii)
to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate
a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and agrees that the Trustee shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes,
or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority with respect to the Senior Notes; and


 


(iii)
acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, (a) the Trustee
shall not be required to take any further directions from Holders of the Senior Notes under Section 5.12 of the Senior Indenture,
and (b) neither the Senior Indenture nor the Third Supplemental Indenture shall impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever
with respect to the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if, following the


 






    A-13 


     

    

 


completion
of the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, any of the Senior Notes remain outstanding
(for example, if the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power results in only a partial write-down of the principal of the Senior Notes),
then the Trustee’s duties under the Indenture shall remain applicable with respect to the Senior Notes following such completion
to the extent that the Company and the Trustee shall agree pursuant to a supplemental indenture or an amendment to the Third Supplemental
Indenture.


 


By
purchasing or acquiring the Senior Notes, each Holder and Beneficial Owner that acquires its Senior Notes in the secondary market
shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified in the Indenture to the same
extent as the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Senior Notes that acquire the Senior Notes upon their initial issuance, including,
without limitation, with respect to the acknowledgement and agreement to be bound by and consent to the terms of the Senior Notes
related to the U.K. bail-in power.


 


By
purchasing or acquiring the Senior Notes, each Holder and Beneficial Owner shall be deemed to have (i) consented to the exercise
of any U.K. bail-in power as it may be imposed without any prior notice by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of its decision
to exercise such power with respect to the Senior Notes and (ii) authorized, directed and requested DTC and any direct participant
in DTC or other intermediary through which it holds such Senior Notes to take any and all necessary action, if required, to implement
the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power with respect to the Senior Notes as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction
on the part of such Holder or Beneficial Owner or the Trustee.


 


No
repayment of the principal amount of the Senior Notes or payment of interest on the Senior Notes shall become due and payable
after the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority unless, at the time that such repayment
or payment, respectively, is scheduled to become due, such repayment or payment would be permitted to be made by the Company under
the laws and regulations of the United Kingdom and the European Union applicable to the Company and the Group.


 


Upon
the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the Senior Notes, the Company
shall provide a written notice to DTC as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the U.K. bail-in power for purposes of
notifying Holders of such occurrence. The Company shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes.


 


The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Senior Notes of each series to be affected thereby by the Company and the
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time outstanding
of each such series. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount
of the outstanding Senior Notes of each series, on behalf of the Holders of all Senior Notes of such series, to waive compliance
by the Company with certain


 






    A-14 


     

    

 


provisions
of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder
of this Senior Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Senior Note and of any
Senior Note issued in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this
Senior Note.


 


No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Senior Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation
of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay, if and when due and payable, the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on, this Senior Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.


 


As
set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Senior Note of this series will have the right
to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, this Senior Note or any remedy thereunder; provided, however,
that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal or
interest as and when the same shall have become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof and the Indenture.


 


No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Senior Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the right of
the Holder of this Senior Note, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on, this Senior Note when due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Senior Note and the Indenture.


 


This
Senior Note will be governed by the laws of the State of New York.


 


Unless
otherwise defined herein, all terms used in this Senior Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned
to them in the Indenture.

(as defined on the reverse hereof) and (ii) from, and including, November 7, 2027 to, but excluding, November 7, 2028, quarterly
in arrears on the Floating Rate Interest Payment Dates (as defined on the reverse hereof). Interest so payable on any Interest

(i) the Company fails to pay any installment of interest on any Senior Note on or before its Interest Payment Date and such failure
continues for 14 days or (ii) the Company fails to pay all or any part of the principal of any Senior Note on any date on which
such principal shall otherwise have become due and payable, whether upon redemption or otherwise, and such failure continues for
seven days (each of (i) and (ii), a “Default”), the Trustee may commence a proceeding for the winding up of the Company,
provided that the Trustee may not, upon the occurrence of a Default, declare the principal amount of any of the Outstanding Senior
Notes to be due and payable.


 






     B-1


     

    

 


Interest

made available for payment.


 


Payment

the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. Such payment shall
be made to the Holder including through a Paying Agent of the Company outside the United Kingdom for collection by the Holder.
If the date for payment of the principal amount hereof (and premium, if any) or interest thereon is not a Business Day, then (subject
as provided in the Indenture) such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as
if made on such date for payment and without any interest or other payment in respect of such delay.


 


Prior
to due presentment of this Senior Note for registration of transfer, the Company, the trustee and any agent of the Company or
the trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Senior Note is registered as the owner of such Senior Note for the purpose
of receiving payment of principal and interest, if any, on such Senior Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or
not such Senior Note be overdue, and neither the Company, the trustee nor any agent of the Company or the trustee shall be affected

Notwithstanding
any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and any Holder or Beneficial Owner of this Senior Note,
by purchasing or acquiring this Senior Note, each Holder (including each Beneficial Owner) of this Senior Note acknowledges, accepts,
agrees to be bound by and consents to the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power (as defined below) by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority that may result in (i) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on,
this Senior Note; (ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on, this Senior Note into
shares or other securities or other obligations of the Company or another person; and/or (iii) the amendment or alteration of
the maturity of this Senior Note, or amendment of the amount of interest due on this Senior Note, or the dates on which interest
becomes payable, including by suspending payment for a temporary period; which U.K. bail-in power may be exercised by means of
variation of the terms of this Senior Note solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of
such U.K. bail-in power. Each Holder and Beneficial Owner of this Senior Note further acknowledges and agrees that the rights
of the Holders and/or Beneficial Owners under this Senior Note are subject to, and will be varied, if necessary, solely to give
effect to, the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.

obligations of a bank, banking group company, credit institution or investment firm or any of its affiliates can be reduced, cancelled,
modified, transferred and/or converted into shares or other securities or obligations of the obligor or any other person (or suspended
for a temporary period) or pursuant to which any right in a contract governing such obligations may be deemed to have been exercised.

[REVERSE
OF SECURITY]


 


This
Senior Note is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Senior Notes”) issued
and to be issued in one or more series under a Senior Debt Securities Indenture, dated as of July 6, 2010 (herein called the “Senior
Indenture”), among the Company, as issuer, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee,”
which term includes any successor trustee under the Senior Indenture), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture dated
as of November 7, 2017, among the Company and the Trustee (the “Third Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the
Senior Indenture, the “Indenture”) to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby
made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee
and the Holders of the Senior Notes and of the terms upon which the Senior Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.


 


This
Senior Note is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $1,750,000,000.
The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the Senior Notes, issue additional notes having the same ranking and interest
rate, maturity date, redemption terms and other terms as the Senior Notes except for the price to the public, issue date and first
interest payment date, provided that such additional notes must be fungible with the outstanding Senior Notes for U.S. federal
income tax purposes. Any such Senior Notes, together with this Senior Note, will constitute a single series of securities under
the Indenture. The Senior Notes will initially be issued in the form of one or more global Senior Notes (each, a “Global
Senior Note”). Except as provided in the Indenture, a Global Senior Note shall not be exchangeable for one or more definitive
Senior Notes.


 


The
Senior Notes of this series will constitute unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Company, as described herein, and
will rank pari passu without any preference among themselves.


 


During
the period from, and including, November 7, 2017 to, but excluding, November 7, 2027 (the “Fixed Rate Period”), interest
shall accrue from the Issue Date at a fixed rate of 3.574% per annum. Interest accrued during the Fixed Rate Period shall be payable
semi-annually in arrears on May 7 and November 7 of each year (each, a “Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date”), commencing
on May 7, 2018.


 


During
the period from, and including, November 7, 2027 to, but excluding, November 7, 2028 (the “Floating Rate Period”),
interest shall accrue at a floating annual rate (the “Floating Interest Rate”) equal to LIBOR on the applicable Interest
Determination Date plus the Spread. The “Spread” is 120.5 basis points. Interest accrued during the Floating
Rate Period shall be payable quarterly in arrears on February 7, 2028, May 7, 2028, August 7, 2028 and November 7, 2028 (each,
a “Floating Rate Interest Payment Date”, and together with the Fixed Rate Interest Payment Dates, the “Interest
Payment Dates”).


 






     B-6


     

    

 


Interest
during the Fixed Rate Period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year divided into twelve months of 30 days each and,
in the case of an incomplete month, on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in such period. If any scheduled Fixed Rate
Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, the Company shall pay interest on the next Business Day, but interest on that payment
shall not accrue during the period from and after such scheduled Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date.


 


Interest
during the Floating Rate Period shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed. The
Floating Interest Rate shall be reset on each Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (each, an “Interest Reset Date”).
If any scheduled Floating Rate Interest Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date) is not a Business Day, such Floating Rate
Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next succeeding Business Day and interest thereon shall continue to accrue, except
that if the Business Day falls in the next succeeding calendar month, such Floating Rate Interest Payment Date shall be the immediately
preceding Business Day. In each such case, except for the Floating Rate Interest Payment Date falling on the Maturity Date, the
Floating Rate Interest Periods and the Interest Reset Dates shall be adjusted accordingly to calculate the amount of interest
payable on the Senior Notes.


 


If
the scheduled Maturity Date or date of redemption or repayment is not a Business Day, the Company may pay interest and principal
on the next succeeding Business Day, but interest on that payment shall not accrue during the period from and after the scheduled
Maturity Date or date of redemption or repayment.


 


The
first interest period shall begin on, and include, the last Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date to, but exclude, the First Floating
Interest Payment Date. Each subsequent interest period shall begin on, and include, a Floating Interest Payment Date to, but exclude,
the immediately succeeding Floating Interest Payment Date (together with the first interest period, each a “Floating Rate
Interest Period”) except that the final Floating Rate Interest Period shall end on, but exclude, the Maturity Date.


 


The
Calculation Agent shall determine LIBOR for each Floating Rate Interest Period on the second London Banking Day prior to the first
day of such Floating Rate Interest Period (an “Interest Determination Date”).


 


“LIBOR,”
with respect to a Floating Rate Interest Period, shall be the offered rate (expressed as a percentage per annum) for deposits
of U.S. dollars having a maturity of three months that appears on the Designated LIBOR Page as of 11:00 a.m., London time.


 


If
no rate appears on the Designated LIBOR Page, LIBOR shall be determined for such Interest Determination Date on the basis of the
rates at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such Interest Determination Date at which deposits in U.S. dollars are offered
to prime banks in the London inter-bank market by four major banks in such market selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation
with the Company, for a term of three months and in a Representative Amount. The Calculation Agent shall request that the principal
London office of each of such banks provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such
Floating Rate Interest


 






     B-7


     

    

 


Period
shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If fewer than two such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such Floating Rate
Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m. in the City of New York on such Interest
Determination Date by three major banks in New York City, selected by the Calculation Agent, after consultation with the Company,
for loans in U.S. dollars to leading European banks, for a term of three months and in a Representative Amount. If at least two
such quotations are provided, LIBOR for such Floating Rate Interest Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such quotations. If
fewer than two quotations are provided (including if no published LIBOR is available and banks are unable or unwilling to provide
quotations for the calculation of LIBOR), then the applicable interest rate for such floating rate interest period will be the
rate of interest applicable during the preceding interest period.


 


A
“London Banking Day” means any day in which dealings in United States dollars are transacted or, with respect to any
future date, are expected to be transacted in the London interbank market.


 


“Designated
LIBOR Page” means the Reuters Screen LIBOR01 display page, or any successor page, on Reuters or any successor service (or
any such other service(s) as may be nominated by ICE Benchmark Administration Limited (“IBA”) or its successor or
such other entity assuming the responsibility of IBA or its successor in calculating the London interbank offered rate in the
event IBA or its successor no longer does so for the purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates for U.S. dollar deposits).


 


“Representative
Amount” means an amount that in the judgment of the Calculation Agent is representative for a single transaction in U.S.
dollars in such market at such time.


 


All
calculations of the Calculation Agent, in the absence of manifest error, shall be conclusive for all purposes and binding on the
Company and on the Holders of the Senior Notes.


 


All
percentages resulting from any of the above calculations shall be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred thousandth
of a percentage point, with five one-millionths of a percentage point rounded upwards (e.g., 9.876545% (or .09876545) being rounded
to 9.87655% (or .0987655)) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculations shall be rounded to the nearest
cent (with one-half cent being rounded upwards).


 


The
Floating Interest Rate on the Senior Notes shall in no event be higher than the maximum rate permitted by law or lower than 0%
per annum.


 


On
at least 5 business days but no more than 30 business days’ prior written notice delivered to the Holders of the Senior
Notes, the Company may in its sole discretion (but subject to, if and to the extent then required by the Relevant Regulator or
the Loss Absorption Regulations, our giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and the Relevant Regulator granting us permission)
redeem, the Senior Notes, in whole, but not in part, on November 7, 2027 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the Senior Notes being redeemed plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but excluding, the
date of redemption.


 






     B-8


     

    

 


If
an Event of Default with respect to the Senior Notes of this series shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the
Holder or Holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Senior Notes of this series may declare
the principal amount of, and any accrued interest on, all the Senior Notes to be due and payable immediately, in the manner, with
the effect and subject to the conditions provided in the Indenture.


 


Except
as otherwise provided in Article 5 of the Senior Indenture, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its
rights and the rights of Holders of Senior Notes by such appropriate judicial proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual
to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in the Indenture or
in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other legal or equitable right vested in the Trustee by
the Indenture or by law, provided, however, that the Company shall not, as a result of the bringing of such judicial proceedings,
be required to pay any amount representing or measured by reference to the principal of, or any interest on, the Senior Notes
prior to any date on which the principal of, or any interest on, the Senior Notes would have otherwise been payable by the Company.


 


If
a Default occurs, the Trustee may commence a proceeding for the winding-up of the Company and/or prove in a winding-up of the
Company, provided that the Trustee may not, upon the occurrence of a Default, declare the principal amount of any of the Outstanding
Senior Notes to be due and payable.


 


Failure
to make any payment in respect of this Senior Note shall not be a Default if such payment is withheld or refused and an Opinion
of Counsel is delivered to the Trustee concluding that such sums were not paid in order to comply with any fiscal or other law
or regulation or with the order of any court of competent jurisdiction, provided, however, that the Trustee may by notice to the
Company require the Company to take such action (including but not limited to proceedings for a declaration by a court of competent
jurisdiction) as the Trustee may be advised in an Opinion of Counsel, upon which opinion the Trustee may conclusively rely, is
appropriate and reasonable in the circumstances to resolve such doubt, in which case the Company shall forthwith take and expeditiously
proceed with such action and shall be bound by any final resolution of the doubt resulting therefrom. If any such action results
in a determination that the relevant payment can be made without violating any applicable law, regulation or order then the provisions
of the preceding sentence shall cease to have effect and the payment shall become due and payable on the expiration of 14 days
(in the case of payments under Section 5.03(a) of the Senior Indenture) or seven days (in the case of payments under Section 5.03(b)
of the Senior Indenture) after the Trustee gives written notice to the Company informing it of such resolution.


 






     B-9


     

    

 


Subject
to applicable law, no Holder may exercise or claim any right of set-off, counterclaim, combination of accounts, compensation or
retention in respect of any amount owed to it by the Company arising under or in connection with the Senior Notes. The Holders
of Senior Notes by their acceptance thereof will be deemed to have waived any right of set-off, counterclaim, combination of accounts,
compensation and retention with respect to the Senior Notes or the Senior Indenture (or between the obligations under or in respect
of any Senior Notes and any liability owed by a Holder to the Company) that they might otherwise have against the Company.


 


No
remedy against the Company other than as referred to in Article 5 of the Senior Indenture shall be available to the Trustee or
the Holders, whether for the recovery of amounts owing in respect of the Senior Notes or under the Indenture or in respect of
any breach by the Company of any of its other obligations under or in respect of the Senior Notes or under the Senior Indenture,
except that the Trustee and the Holders shall have such rights and powers as they are required to have under the Trust Indenture
Act.


 


Amounts
to be paid on the Senior Notes of this Series will be made without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any and all
present and future income, stamp and other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges or fees, levied, collected, withheld or assessed
by or on behalf of the United Kingdom or any political subdivision or authority thereof or therein having the power to tax (the
“Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless such deduction or withholding is required by law. If at any time a Taxing Jurisdiction
requires the Company to make such deduction or withholding, the Company will pay additional amounts with respect to the principal
of, and interest and any other payments on, the Senior Notes of this series (“Additional Amounts”) that are necessary
in order that the net amounts paid to the Holders, after the deduction or withholding, shall equal the amounts which would have
been payable on the Senior Notes if the deduction or withholding had not been required. However, this will not apply to
any such tax, levy, impost, duty, charge or fee, which would not have been deducted or withheld but for the fact that:


 


(i)
the Holder or the Beneficial Owner of the Senior Note is a domiciliary, national or resident of, or engaging in business or maintaining
a permanent establishment or is physically present in, the Taxing Jurisdiction or otherwise has some connection with the Taxing
Jurisdiction other than the holding or ownership of a Senior Note, or the collection of any payment of (or in respect of) principal
of, or interest or other payments on, any Senior Note,


 


(ii)
except in the case of winding-up in the United Kingdom, the relevant Senior Note is presented (where presentation is required)
for payment in the United Kingdom,


 


(iii)
the relevant Senior Note is presented (where presentation is required) for payment more than 30 days after the date payment became
due or was provided for, whichever is later, except to the extent that the Holder would have been entitled to the Additional Amounts
on presenting the same for payment at the close of that 30 day period,


 






     B-10


     

    

 


(iv)
the Holder or the Beneficial Owner of the relevant Senior Note or the Beneficial Owner of any payment of (or in respect of) principal
of, or interest or other payments on, the Senior Note failed to comply with a request of the Company or its liquidator or other
authorized person addressed to the Holder (x) to provide information concerning the nationality, residence or identity of the
Holder or such Beneficial Owner or (y) to make any declaration or other similar claim to satisfy any requirement, which in the
case of (x) or (y), is required or imposed by a statute, treaty, regulation or administrative practice of the Taxing Jurisdiction
as a precondition to exemption from all or part of the tax, levy, impost, duty, charge or fee,


 


(v)
the withholding or deduction is required to be made pursuant to European Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings
income, or any directive amending, supplementing or replacing such directive, or any law implementing or complying with, or introduced
in order to conform to, such directive or directives,


 


(vi)
the Senior Note is presented (where presentation is required) for payment by or on behalf of a Holder who would have been able
to avoid such withholding or deduction by presenting the Senior Note to another paying agent,


 


(vii)
the deduction or withholding is imposed by reason of any agreement with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service in connection with Sections
1471-1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code and the U.S. Treasury regulations thereunder (“FATCA”), any intergovernmental
agreement between the United States and the United Kingdom or any other jurisdiction with respect to FATCA, or any law, regulation
or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing, or relating to, FATCA or any intergovernmental agreement;
or


 


(viii)
any combination of clauses (i) through (vii) above,


 


nor shall
Additional Amounts be paid with respect to the principal of, or any interest or other payments on, the Senior Note to any Holder
who is a fiduciary or partnership or any person other than the sole Beneficial Owner of such payment to the extent such payment
would be required by the laws of any Taxing Jurisdiction to be included in the income for tax purposes of a beneficiary or partner
or settlor with respect to such fiduciary or a member of such partnership or a Beneficial Owner who would not have been entitled
to such Additional Amounts, had it been the Holder.


 


References
herein to the payment of the principal of or interest or other payments on any Senior Note shall be deemed to include mention
of the payment of Additional Amounts provided for in the foregoing paragraph to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts
are, were or would be payable under the foregoing provisions.


 


In
addition to the Company’s right to redeem the Senior Notes on November 7, 2027, the Senior Notes of this series are redeemable,
as a whole but not in part, at the option of the Company, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice, on any Payment
Date, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount, together with accrued but unpaid interest, in respect of the
Senior Notes to the date fixed for

redemption,
if, at any time, the Company shall determine that as a result of a change in or amendment to the laws or regulations of the Taxing
Jurisdiction (including any treaty to which such Taxing Jurisdiction is a party), or any change in the application or interpretation
of such laws or regulations (including a decision of any court or tribunal) which change or amendment becomes effective on or
after November 7, 2017:


 


(a)
in making payment under the Senior Notes the Company has or will or would on the next Payment Date become obligated to pay Additional
Amounts;


 


(b)
the payment of interest on the next Payment Date in respect of any of the Senior Notes would be treated as a “distribution”
within the meaning of Chapter 2 of Part 23 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 of the United Kingdom (or any statutory modification
or re-enactment thereof for the time being); or


 


(c)
on the next Payment Date the Company would not be entitled to claim a deduction in respect of such payment of interest in computing
its United Kingdom taxation liabilities (or the value of such deduction to the Company would be materially reduced).


 


In
any case where the Company shall determine that, in accordance with Section 11.08 of the Senior Indenture, it is entitled to redeem
the Senior Notes of this series, the Company shall be required to deliver to the Trustee prior to the giving of any notice of
redemption a written legal opinion of independent United Kingdom counsel of recognized standing (selected by the Company) in a
form satisfactory to the Trustee confirming that the relevant change or amendment has occurred and that the Company is entitled
to exercise its right of redemption.


 


The
Company may, at the Company’s option (but subject to, if and to the extent then required by the Relevant Regulator or the
Loss Absorption Regulations, our giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and the Relevant Regulator granting us permission), having
given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice to holders, redeem all but not some only of the Senior Notes outstanding
at any time at 100% of their principal amount together with any accrued but unpaid interest to the date of redemption, if immediately
prior to the giving of the notice referred to above, the Company satisfies the Trustee that a Loss Absorption Disqualification
Event has occurred. Any redemption or purchase of Senior Notes (other than redemption on the relevant maturity date), and any
modification to the terms of the Senior Notes or any indenture relating thereto, is subject to, if and to the extent then required
by the Relevant Regulator or the Loss Absorption Regulations, our giving notice to the Relevant Regulator and the Relevant Regulator
granting us permission therefor and otherwise to compliance with the Loss Absorption Regulations if and to the extent then required
thereunder.


 


If
the Company elects to redeem the Senior Notes of this series, the Senior Notes will cease to accrue interest from the date of
redemption, provided the redemption price has been paid in accordance with the Indenture.

Upon
payment of (i) the amount of principal (and premium, if any) so declared due and payable and (ii) accrued and unpaid interest,
all of the Company’s obligations in respect of the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any), and accrued and unpaid
interest on, the Senior Notes of this series shall terminate.


 


Notwithstanding
any other agreements, arrangements, or understandings between the Company and any Holder or Beneficial Owner of this Senior Note,
by purchasing or acquiring this Senior Note, each Holder (including each Beneficial Owner) of this Senior Note acknowledges, accepts,
agrees to be bound by and consents to the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority that may
result in (i) the reduction or cancellation of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on, the Senior Notes;
(ii) the conversion of all, or a portion, of the principal amount of, or interest on, the Senior Notes into shares or other securities
or other obligations of the Company or another person; and/or (iii) the amendment or alteration of the maturity of the Senior
Notes, or amendment of the amount of interest due on the Senior Notes, or the dates on which interest becomes payable, including
by suspending payment for a temporary period; which U.K. bail-in power may be exercised by means of variation of the terms of
the Senior Notes solely to give effect to the exercise by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of such U.K. bail-in power. Each
Holder and Beneficial Owner of the Senior Notes further acknowledges and agrees that the rights of the Holders and/or Beneficial
Owners under the Senior Notes are subject to, and will be varied, if necessary, solely to give effect to, the exercise of any
U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority.


 


By
purchasing or acquiring the Senior Notes, each Holder and Beneficial Owner of the Securities:


 


(i)
acknowledges and agrees that the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority in respect of the
Senior Notes shall not give rise to a default or an Event of Default for purposes of Section 315(b) (Notice of Default) and Section
315(c) (Duties of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture Act;


 


(ii)
to the extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act, waives any and all claims against the Trustee for, agrees not to initiate
a suit against the Trustee in respect of, and agrees that the Trustee shall not be liable for, any action that the Trustee takes,
or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution
authority with respect to the Senior Notes; and


 


(iii)
acknowledges and agrees that, upon the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, (a) the Trustee
shall not be required to take any further directions from Holders of the Senior Notes under Section 5.12 of the Senior Indenture,
and (b) neither the Senior Indenture nor the Third Supplemental Indenture shall impose any duties upon the Trustee whatsoever
with respect to the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
if, following the


 






     B-13


     

    

 


completion of the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority, any of the Senior
Notes remain outstanding (for example, if the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power results in only a partial write-down of the principal
of the Senior Notes), then the Trustee’s duties under the Indenture shall remain applicable with respect to the Senior Notes
following such completion to the extent that the Company and the Trustee shall agree pursuant to a supplemental indenture or an
amendment to the Third Supplemental Indenture.


 


By
purchasing or acquiring the Senior Notes, each Holder and Beneficial Owner that acquires its Senior Notes in the secondary market
shall be deemed to acknowledge and agree to be bound by and consent to the same provisions specified in the Indenture to the same
extent as the Holders and Beneficial Owners of the Senior Notes that acquire the Senior Notes upon their initial issuance, including,
without limitation, with respect to the acknowledgement and agreement to be bound by and consent to the terms of the Senior Notes
related to the U.K. bail-in power.


 


By
purchasing or acquiring the Senior Notes, each Holder and Beneficial Owner shall be deemed to have (i) consented to the exercise
of any U.K. bail-in power as it may be imposed without any prior notice by the relevant U.K. resolution authority of its decision
to exercise such power with respect to the Senior Notes and (ii) authorized, directed and requested DTC and any direct participant
in DTC or other intermediary through which it holds such Senior Notes to take any and all necessary action, if required, to implement
the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power with respect to the Senior Notes as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction
on the part of such Holder or Beneficial Owner or the Trustee.


 


No
repayment of the principal amount of the Senior Notes or payment of interest on the Senior Notes shall become due and payable
after the exercise of any U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority unless, at the time that such repayment
or payment, respectively, is scheduled to become due, such repayment or payment would be permitted to be made by the Company under
the laws and regulations of the United Kingdom and the European Union applicable to the Company and the Group.


 


Upon
the exercise of the U.K. bail-in power by the relevant U.K. resolution authority with respect to the Senior Notes, the Company
shall provide a written notice to DTC as soon as practicable regarding such exercise of the U.K. bail-in power for purposes of
notifying Holders of such occurrence. The Company shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee for information purposes.


 


The
Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Senior Notes of each series to be affected thereby by the Company and the
Trustee with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in principal amount of the Senior Notes at the time outstanding
of each such series. The Indenture also contains


 






     B-14

permitting the Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Senior Notes of each series, on behalf of
the Holders of all Senior Notes of such series, to waive compliance by the Company 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 Senior Note
shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Senior Note and of any Senior Note issued
in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Senior Note.


 


No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Senior Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation
of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay, if and when due and payable, the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on, this Senior Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed.


 


As
set forth in, and subject to, the provisions of the Indenture, no Holder of any Senior Note of this series will have the right
to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture, this Senior Note or any remedy thereunder; provided, however,
that such limitations do not apply to a suit instituted by the Holder hereof for the enforcement of payment of the principal or
interest as and when the same shall have become due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof and the Indenture.


 


No
reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Senior Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the right of
the Holder of this Senior Note, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of (and premium, if any)
and interest on, this Senior Note when due and payable in accordance with the provisions of this Senior Note and the Indenture.


 


This
Senior Note will be governed by the laws of the State of New York.


 


Unless
otherwise defined herein, all terms used in this Senior Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned
to them in the Indenture.
