Section 1.01 in their proper alphabetical order): 
 “Beneficial Owner” shall mean (i) if any Capital Securities
are in global form, the beneficial owners of such Capital Securities (and any interest therein) and (ii) if any Capital Securities are in definitive form, the holders in whose name such Capital Securities are registered in the Security register

(c) By its acquisition of the Capital Securities, each Holder (including each Beneficial Owner) shall be deemed irrevocably to have agreed:

	 	(ii)	 that it will have no claim or other right against the Issuer arising out of any Resolution Measure; and



  

	 	(iii)	 that the imposition of any Resolution Measure will not constitute a default or an Event of Default
(A) under the Capital Securities, (B) under the Indenture or (C) for the purpose of, but only to the fullest extent permitted by, the Trust Indenture Act (including, without limitation, Section 315(b) (Notice of Default) and

outstanding amount payable in respect of, the Capital Securities, subject to any modification of the amount of interest payable, if any, to reflect the reduction of the principal amount, and any
further modification of the terms that the competent resolution authority may decide in accordance with applicable laws and regulations relating to the resolution of banks, banking group companies, credit institutions and/or investment firms
incorporated in the Federal Republic of Germany. 
 (e) No repayment of any then-current principal amount of the Capital Securities or
payment of interest or any other amount thereon (to the extent of the portion thereof affected by the imposition of a Resolution Measure) shall become due and payable after the imposition of any Resolution Measure by the competent resolution
authority, unless such repayment or payment would be permitted to be made by the Issuer under the laws and regulations of the Federal Republic of Germany then applicable to the Issuer. 

(f) By its acquisition of the Capital Securities, each Holder (including each Beneficial Owner) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by the
Trust Indenture Act and applicable law, any and all claims against the Trustee and the Agents for, agrees not to initiate a suit against the Trustee or the Agents in respect of, and agrees that the Trustee and the Agents shall not be liable for, any
action that the Trustee or any of the Agents takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the imposition of a Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority with respect to the Capital Securities. 

(g) Upon the imposition of a Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority with respect to the Capital Securities, the Issuer shall

such occurrence. The Issuer shall also deliver a copy of such notice to the Trustee and the Agents for information purposes only, and the Trustee and the Agents shall be entitled to rely, and will not be liable for relying, on the competent
resolution authority and the Resolution Measure identified in such notice. Any delay or failure by the Issuer to give notice shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any Resolution Measure nor the effects thereof on the Capital Securities.

with respect to the Capital Securities prior to the payment of the redemption amount for the Capital Securities, the relevant redemption notice, if any, shall be automatically rescinded and shall be of no force and effect, and no payment of the
redemption amount will be due and payable.

Table of Contents


 (i) Upon the imposition of any Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority, the
Trustee shall not be required to take any further directions from Holders of the Capital Securities under Section 5.09 of the Indenture, which section authorizes Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Capital Securities at
the time Outstanding to direct certain actions relating to the Capital Securities, and if any such direction was previously given under Section 5.09 of the Indenture to the Trustee by the Holders, it shall automatically cease to be effective,
be null and void and have no further effect. The Indenture shall impose no duties, obligations or liabilities upon the Trustee or the Agents whatsoever with respect to the imposition of any Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority,
and the Trustee and the Agents shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting in accordance with a Resolution Measure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, following completion of the imposition of a Resolution Measure by the competent
resolution authority, the Capital Securities remain outstanding (for example, if the imposition of a Resolution Measure results in only a partial write-down of the principal of the Capital Securities), then the Trustee’s and the Agents’
duties under the Indenture shall remain applicable with respect to the Capital Securities following such completion to the extent that the Issuer, the Trustee and the Agents agree pursuant to a supplemental indenture, unless the Issuer, the Trustee
and the Agents agree that a supplemental indenture is not necessary. 
 (j) By the acquisition of the Capital Securities, each Holder
(including each Beneficial Owner) shall be deemed irrevocably to have (i) consented to the imposition of any Resolution Measure as it may be imposed without any prior notice by the competent resolution authority of its decision to exercise such
power with respect to the Capital Securities, (ii) authorized, directed and requested the Depositary and any direct participant in the Depositary or other intermediary through which it holds such Capital Securities to take any and all necessary
action, if required, to implement the imposition of any Resolution Measure with respect to the Capital Securities as it may be imposed, without any further action or direction on the part of such Holders of the Capital Securities, the Trustee or the
Agents, and (iii) acknowledged and accepted that the provisions contained in this Section 1.02 are exhaustive on the matters described this Section 1.02 to the exclusion of any other agreements, arrangements or understandings between
it and the Issuer relating to the terms and conditions of the Capital Securities.

 (k) If the competent resolution authority imposes a Resolution Measure with respect to less than
the total outstanding principal amount of the Capital Securities, unless the Trustee or the Agents are otherwise instructed by the Issuer or the competent resolution authority, any cancellation, write-off or
conversion into equity made in respect of the Capital Securities pursuant to the Resolution Measure will be made on a substantially pro rata basis among the Capital Securities of any series. 

(l) The Issuer’s obligations to indemnify the Trustee and the Agents in accordance with Sections 6.02 and 6.06 of the Indenture shall
survive the imposition of a Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority with respect to the Capital Securities. For the avoidance of doubt, any and all amounts due and owing to the Trustee under any provision of the Indenture shall be
payable within six (6) days of the date specified for payment or where no date is specified, the date on which the Trustee demands payment in accordance with the applicable provision of the Indenture.

“The Capital Securities shall constitute unsecured and subordinated obligations of the Issuer, ranking pari passu among themselves
and (as specified below) pari passu with all other equally subordinated obligations of the Issuer. If Resolution Measures are imposed on the Issuer, or in the event of the dissolution, liquidation, insolvency or composition of the Issuer, or
if other proceedings are opened for the avoidance of insolvency of, or against, the Issuer, the obligations under any series of the Capital Securities shall be fully subordinated to (i) the claims of unsubordinated creditors (as defined below)
of the Issuer, (ii) the claims specified in Section 39(1) nos. 1 to 5 of the German Insolvency Code (Insolvenzordnung) or any successor provision, and (iii) the claims under Tier 2 instruments (within the meaning of the CRR) of
the Issuer. In any such event, no amounts shall be payable in respect of the Capital Securities until (i) the claims of such unsubordinated creditors of the Issuer, (ii) the claims specified in Section 39(1) nos. 1 to 5 of the German
Insolvency Code or any successor provision, and (iii) the claims under such Tier 2 instruments have been satisfied in full. Subject to the foregoing, the Issuer may satisfy its obligations under the Capital Securities also from other
distributable assets (freies Vermögen) of the Issuer.
